Mitchell Seems

In Air Dispute
Fiery Colonel VIII Be Vindicat-

Either One He Wins
By CHARLES P. STEWART

WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.-sNo
prosecution ever went into case
with less enthusiasm than the War
Department goes after Col. "Billy"
Mitchell, for the roast he gave the
army's and the navy's management
of their respective aviation services.
And no wonder, for here's sit
uation in which the prosecution is
on the defensive, with the accused
quite indifferent as to his own
fate, hot after verdict of guilty
against his accusers.
The worst Of it, from the War
Departments standpoint, is that
Col. "Billy' can't lose, no matter
how the case ends. The War-and
Navy-Departments can hardly do
anything else.
Suppose the cOlonePs vindicated.
That means he wins, and he can
win only on the grounds that what
he said about aviation was justified
"a frightful pair of black eyes for
the War and Navy Departments
alike.
On the other hand, suppose he's
found guilty Of characterization and
even deprived Of his commission.
In that event he's a martyr, q
mighty popular one, too, and those
who made him one are correspond
ingly unpopular for doing so.
The War Department will try &c

CHICAGO, Sept. 18.-Broken in
heart and spirit over separation
from her mother, Miss Eula Harding
was under the care of a physician
recently, following an amazing two
an done-half years of self-inflicted
imprisonment in a single rom at a
loop hotel as sole guard and Gus
todian of her mother, who had gone
insane.
Realization that all of her eff
forts and care, all of her months
of voluntary sacrifice had been in
vain, proved too much for the girl
who had spent two and one-half
years to keep from the world the
secret of her mothers condition.
She was reported in critical condi-
ton.
The mother, Mrs. Raleigh d.
Harding, 45, wife of the head of a
provision firm at Wilmington, Del,
is at the psycOpathic Hospital under
the care of physicians.
Mrs. Harding's mind gave way
suddenly at Wilmington. The daugh-
ter, Eula, terrified at the thought
of having her mother committed to
an institution, invented an excuse
for coming to Chicago, where she
took a room at the hotel. Since
then neither she nor her mother
ever left the room, according to
hotel attaches.
Only hotel attendants who en-
tered the room in the course of
their duties saw them, and these
were sworn to secrecy.

Abd-El-Krin, leader, Uses Ra-
dio to Intercept Dispatches
Not Intended for Him

LONDON, Sept. 1s.-Abd-El-
Krim, Riff leader, makes valuable
use of radio and wireless in the war
against France and Spain in Mo
rocco.
France and SPANS attempt to
blockade Moroccan ports and cut
Abd-El-Krim off from the news of
the world, especially of French and
Spanish movements, have failed
completely due to the Riffian radio
apparatus.
Thirty sending and receiving sets
Of latest German make have been
set up in the Riff country.
Abd-El-Krim carries a radio set
with him and, has a staff Of Riffs
who have been trained to send and
receive messages.
They work in relays, night and
day, so that they will get everything
on the ether.
Abd-El-Krim knows everything
that is sent out by radio about him.
He knows the effect his success had
upon the citizens Of Paris and Mad
rid.
He listened in and heard the
speech the king of Spain made in
Madrid to excite the patriotism of
the people of his country.
Another time he learned that the
party of American aviators, serving
the French army had left France
for the Moroccan front.
Another part of Abd-El-Krim's
wireless activities Is information SER
vice which he receives by secret
code from hidden wireless posts in
neutral countries.
A story is told by a Frenchuian
who had a talk with Abd-El-Krim in
one of his mountain retreats that
after the discussion the Riff chief
tain said, Enough of this serious
business. Let's hear some music"
Abd-El-Krim adjusted the radio
set, and in that faraway mountain
camp the astonished European
heard the strains Of a jazz band
playing in the ballroom Of a big
London hotel.

German Predicts America VIII

BERLIN. Sept. 18.-Undaunted

lea, in all probability, will embark

dirigible.
That was the opinion of dirigible
builders of the United States and
Germany in conference in Amster-
dam and expressed by DR. Hugo
Eckener in an exclusive prediction
on his return.
Eckener was shocked and indig-
nant over the statement attributed
to him that the Shenandoah disaster
would not have happened had the
airship been manned by German
crew or under the direction Of a
German pilot.
"This is an utter faIsehOod," the
famous Zeppelin designer and
builder declared. 81 have never
said a single word to that effect. It
is the fabrication of stupid and
misguided nationalist. I never talk
that way.
Gwen if I were so arrogant as

certainly not so tactless as to do so

1t has crossed the seas from the

DIR. Chambliss Says Dreaded
Disease Is Now Under Con-
troll Among Negroes
ONLY TWO CASES AMONG
WHITE PEOPLE THIS YEAR
Ignorance Cause of High Fa-
tally Among Colored Dur
ing Early Summer

The slight typhoid epidemic
among the negroes of the county is
now under control,no new cases
having been reported this month.
So far as is known by the Sum
ter county health board, there have
been only two or three white per
sons in the county to contract ty-
phoid fever. Among the negroes
there have been probably rs or
more, and, according to DR.. ]. W,
Chambliss, chairman Of the board
one-half the negro cases have prov
en- to be fatal.
This high fatality is caused by the
fact that the negroes do not know
how to treat the disease, often sick
for sometime before medical aid is
sought, and then they fail to follow
proper diet, says DR.. Chambliss.
In no case, however, where vac
cination was taken in time has there
been a case of typhoid. In those
sections where the disease was pre-
valent and the board notified the
disease has been stopped.
Discussing the typhoid work to-
day, DR.. Chambliss said:
''There has been no new cases OF
typhoid fever reported TO the
Health Department this month and
possibly the most active campaign
of vaccination has been carried out
In order to prevent any further
loss Of time or life from this pre-
ventable disease.
'The Health Department is vac
cinating around 1000 per week, the
majority of which is, typhoid wac
cfnations; second, smallpox, and in
almost equal number toxin-anti-
toxin, which immunizes a child for
life against diptherfa.
''In order to cover this situation
as rapidly as possible, we have been
vaccinating against typhoid fever
whenever Is or more people could
be gotten together in the county,
and, advantage taken by the people
is very noticeable. The VAGINA

Calls Court
Weddings
Failures
Judge Quits Tying Knot Because
of So Many ''DOg License
Marriages"

CHICAGO, Sept OO,-Marriages
are very properly religious func-
ton and law courts have no bust
ness butting in on this weIl-regu-
lated trade by trying imitation
knots that fail to bind.
This is THE paraphrased opinion
of Judge John J. Lupe of Chicago's
busy court of domestic relations
who has just announced in judicial
decree that henceforth couples de-
sirous of matrimony must look
elsewhere than to him for uniting
them except in emergencies.
Marriage should be served with
all the trimmings" says Judge Lupe
in explaining his reason for the
revolutionary move.
Ell not have folks coming to me
to marry them with the same atti-
tude they assme in applying for a
dog license.
Marriage is a sacred sacra-
ment. 1t can best be performed by
clergyman with all the solemn,
serious atmosphere that makes a
marriage under such circumstances,
a picture never to be forgotten.
"My experience on the bench
has convinced me that hasty we'd
dings in court lead more often to
hasty efforts at divorce in other
courts.
"There is something about a re-
ligious ceremony and ritual that
stamps itself indelibly on human
being and makes it less easy for
him to forget or look with light re-
gard upon the thing, custom or in
stitution which the ceremony COM
memorates.
"Court weddings performed by
magistrates, justices of the peace
and other legal representatives
have merely legal sanction and
imply to many only legal and not
moral or spiritual sense Of obli-
cation.
''For this reason, in my court
from now on, except in cases of
dire emergency and for the public
good, we will dispense justice and
not marriages.
Seekers after welded bliss l
shall direct to churches where the
proper spiritual atmosphere obtains.
"To judges the power is given
legally to dissolve marriage.
"But the clergymen and the
churches power is vested TO make
marriage stick.
"And the only way marriage
can be made to stick is to serve it
with all the trimmings so that it
leaves an indellible mark that can
not be erased or forgotten without
serious damage to the conscience.
Judge Lupe, it should be re-
marked, is married-married in a
church and regards the job done
many years ago by clergyman far
better than anything of similar
nature that he could do for others.
