TELL THE NEWSPAPERS

The power of publicity is en-
phasized in the case of August
Meyer, 1906 Woodbridge avenue,
Cleveland, Ohio, the man who,
for 20 years, had been trying in
vain to have a dead lamp post
removed from the front of his
home.
Every time a new mayor was
elected, Meyer called upon him
and urged that the post be re-
moved. Each mayor promised
immediate action. Each mayor
failed to do anything about it.
At last, a few days ago, Meyer
appealed to The Press. The
story Of the ridiculous situation
was published. Within a few
hours the lamp post had been
removed. That's the power Of
publicity.
Don't suffer from inefficient
government year after year,
neighbor. If you can't get ac-
ton, tell the newspapers. A
newspaper is an institution Of
service. 1t hasn't performed its
obligation when it merely has
told YOU about the tender hearts
Of cur clemency board, and about
the latest girl to be adopted by
a millionaire daddy. The news
papers job is to help you to get
service in the city whose taxes
you join in paying.
If you don't get action from
city, county or state, kick. Tell
the newspapers. Generally they
can help you, if your complaint
IS justified.

THE NON-UNION MAN

The non-union man is clog
Around the neck of the union man;
He don't advance, or progress make
Nothing to give, but willing to take
All you have ploughed, and harrow
ed, too
A parasite of the deepest hue,
And everywhere he should not be,
Drawing the sustenance that belongs
to you.
The non union man, what of him?
He's neither made from wood or tin.
A soulless slave, with no backbone,
He cannot call his life his own.
He moves around this earth of ours
With never a choice, and no desire
To make this life little bright,
With more money earned on Saturday
night
The non union man is old and trite;
Arranging on to the tail of the kite,
He weights it down to his own plane,
So it cannot rise to soar again;
The tail suits him, but not the string,
To fly the kite, no not for him,
He's putty made, with sawdust brains
His name is mud; mud he remains.

A Weekly Panorama OF Events In the
National Capital
(By PETER KEEGANl

WASHINGTON is turning rapidly,
W almost overnight it seems i'll
some cases, from a town of old home
steads and quiet, shaded streets to a
bustling city where business holds
the whip hand. In the northwest sec
ton Of the city, business houses are
taking the place of the old brick
homes, which are either being de-
stroyed entirely or are being re-
modelled into office buildings. The
result is that the residential sections
are being pushed farther and farth-
er away and even into the nearby
Maryland and Virginia suburbs. Bus
mess development is not limited eth
er to the residential sections as many
of the streets which have been occu-
pied solely by business houses for
years are undergoing improvements
and remodelings which are changing
the whole appearance Of the city. The
big change will come, however, whel-
ever Congress goes ahead with the
Governments great building program,
contemplating the destruction Of
many Of the old grimy buildings along
the south side of Pennsylvania Ave
nue. and the erection of Government
department buildings in one big group
on the Mall.

Congress has provided that the debts
are to be paid in full. The Belgian
debt conference probably will last ten
DAYS or two weeks after which debt
ENJOYS from France, ltal y Czecho-
slovakia and other countries are eX-
pected to come to Washington to talk
business with American debt collec-
tors. The Administration is fearful
of getting some caustic criticism from
Congress unless it can show some def
mite progress in debt liquidation be-
fore December.

W ance to attract its attention
Washington has been keeping tab on
the final round in Michigan of the
Congressman Scott divorce case,
which has now reached its conclusion.
The Scots were leading members of
the Congress-Army-Navy set in the
Capital and several Of their associates
in this group were involved in the
charges and counter-charges which
they made in their bills for divorce
Stories of the trial, replete with tales
Of Congressional drinking bouts,

cretiOns were read with interest in all
social circles. Scott will be a mem

THE early sessions of the debt fund
ing negotiations between the
United States and Belgium have mov-
ed into a deadlock over terms for pay
ing the nearly half billion dollars
which Belgium owes, but the best in
formation is that an agreement Is
still possible and will be reached be
fore the end of the month. The big
gest victory for the Belgiums at the
start was the obtaining from the
American commissioners of the prom
ise of a lengthy moratorium, during
which time they will be required to
pay neither principal or interest. The
granting of this concession to Be-
gium indicates that similar policy
will be followed in the case Of both
Italy and France, despite the repeat
ed denials of the Government that
moratOriums were possible.

A ACCUSTOMED to parades and pub
lie demonstrations of all kinds,
Washington saw something entirely
lew in the Ku klux Klan parade, ana
is still trying to get at the meaning
Of the great outpouring of white
robed figures which marched down
Pennsylvania Avenue for nearly fOu
hours. The parade was looked upon
generaly as a gesture of strength on
the part of the organization, despite
the fact that it was given out that
the national officers did not stand
sponsor for the affair and that it was
of local origin. Opponents Of the
Klan sought unsuccessfully to stop
the parade on the ground that riot
and bloodshed would result, but the
whole thing went off quietly and
without excitement.
