their hostility to the Christian

that generations will overcome,

iron ore and for the growing of
cOpra, sugar, rubber, hemp and
other tropical products" Bacon
suggests, "and the investment Of
capital under careful government
al regulations encouraged rather
than discouraged, as at present,
there is no question but that in
a very short time the revenues of
the Moro Province would not only
take care of all governmental ex-
penditures, but would far exceed
per capital of population, that of
the entire remaining portion of
the Philippines"
To this confession of business mot
i've the independence mission replies
that it is simply grab by American
business. 1t points out as significant
the fact that every spot marked by
Secretary HoOver's map, prepared
last year, of the possible rubber
growing areas in the Islands, is with
in the territory which Bacon would
tear from the Filipino state. It
charges that the aim of Bacon and
his hackers is to break down the
present law of the Islands, limiting
to $500 acres the amount of public
land that any company may acquire.
The Mcros are only 8 per cent of
the population of the Islands. The
Filipinos denounce as "monstrously
unjust" the proposal that the 80 per
cent who are civilized and modern
shall be deprived of the natural re-
sources of the rich territory which
the uncivilized inhabit, in order that
American capitalist may exploit it
and at the same time postpone the
day of self-government in the Islands.

TRICK DICE SEIZED,

A pair of wrong dice. one of
which contained only aces. treys and
fives, and the other. deuces, tours and
skies, was seized last night by Capt.
Burlingame'S flying squadron In a
raid on the second floor of 1924 Four

rested and charged with permitting
gaming because none could say who
was conducting the game.
William Jenkins, in whose apart
ment the raid was staged, admitted.
according to Capt. Burlingame, that
he had rented the apartment to "some
one for the evening
At the second precinct, Capt. Bur-
lingame lined up the men and asked
each one who was in charge of the
game. When each of them denied
knowledge he held each on a charge
OF permitting gaming under 500 col

The trick dice seized are known to
police as losing bones" as the re-
suit Of their makeup is a loss to the
one handling the dice. They are pro-
duced and used when the house
wants to recoup on a losing evening.
Burlingame told the 16 arrested
men exactly how they could be vic.
tlmtzed by the use of such bones"
and his explanation drew whistles of
chagrin and amazement from his au-
dience.
There was more amaZement when
Burlingame announced that 500

0LD-T|ME DANCES
Top of the Notch Shakes
With Merriment as Ancient
Steps Are Stepped.
BY y. RUSSELL YOUNG.

PLYMOUTH NOTCH, VT, August
7.-There's life and gayety at the top
Of the Notch tonight.
Strains of old fashioned dance tunes,
the resonant tone of the prompters
quadrille, the Lady Washington reel
and other old dances. little known
now, were waited across the road
from the little hall above Miss Flor
ence Cilley's crossroads store to the
ears of the President and Mrs. Cool
idCe on the piazza of the old home
stead.
1t was a small room on the first
floor of the building where the Presi-
dent was born that the dance was
held. The room is known at the notch
as the town hall" There the Presi-
dent transacted his duties as Chief
Executive the first time he came to
Plymouth after becoming President.
But tonight it's a dance hall.

The country SWANS and their best
girls from miles around have gather
ed. Dances are not very frequent in
the hill country of Vermont. Tonight s
jollification is the first of it's kind
held at the Notch for nearly a year
and, naturally enough. it drew big
crowd. The dancers had a hard time
moving about. The boys and girls
need lots of room or else their style
is cramped.
1t can hardly be said that this
dance at the Notch was solely in
honor of the presence of Plymouth's
distinguished son and his popular
wife. 1t is serving, however, as the
only festivity provided to celebrate
the me-coming of the Executive
and the First Lady.
Although the affair was advertised
not to start until O'Clock, and to be
concluded at midnight. buggies and
carriages and automobiles with their
happy loads started arriving long in
advance. Some had come from great
distances and wanted to make sure
they missed none of the fun. Dances
in this section are fun, too. They are
more than mere dancing. They are
screams.

Zinovieff is reported as being pro-

pure red attitude of Trotsky, is re-

reports are likely to- be exaggerated,
but another type of information com

The opposition between him and
