BELIEVES IN
HIS OWN GOD;
NOT FORD'S
Burbank Says That He
Is An Agnostic

SANTA ROSA, Cal, Jan. 27-The
backwash of the religious controversy
between Luther Burbank, famous
plant scientist, and Henry Ford, build
er of automobiles, had not subsidized
today, despite the fact that Burbank
has declared the incident, so far as
he is concerned, closed. Beginning
with their divergent views on rein
carnation, the controversy widened in
scope until Burbank was assigned to
the ranks of the "infidels."
Believes In God, But Not Ford's God.
"Am l to be definitely filed away
as an infidel because i do not believe
that god exists in The form of a
MANI" is Luther Burtlhnk's pertinent
counter question to tn. accusation. 81
do believe in god, but certainly not in
that sense. To m9 god is something
less tangible form of a supreme
being that influences the heart and
spirit OF mankind.
"An infidel, well, hardly that, not in
the accepted sense dfA the word, at
least. An agnostic? This, perhaps,
would better describe my views-for
believe in the limits If human intel
ligence."
Sweeping aside thsv mild religious
controversy with a Eesture-and a
very intelligent one, according to
many of his learned friends on the
Pacific coast-Mr. Burbank clearly es-
tablished his creed when he said:
Sounds Good, But Means Little.
Humanity is my religion"
Citing Christ as an example, Luther
Burbank explained that he did not
accept the current beliefs of his
time. what brought about his cru
cifixion?" he asked. Twas it not be-
cause he spread doctrine contrary
to that of the Jews?'f
With the prospect that his great
friend might be pilloried because of
his views, David Starr Jordan, chan
cellor emeritus of Stanford University
and internationally known educator,
entered the list wearing the Bur-
bank colors.
"Our supreme being" he said, In
referring to Burbanks opinion, sis
the same" David Starr Jordan also
holds with Luther Burbank on the
matter of reincarnation. at is con-
trary to all the indications Of

Prince of Wales Kills
Horse After Imbibing
Too Freely of Joy-Juice

MELTON, Mowbray, Eng, Jan. 81
"Oh Dear"-one of the best hunting
horses of this section was killed by
the prince of Wales. All efforts are
being made by the gentry here to hide
the fact that the prince had imbibed
too freely before the hunt and that
in his fear that the charger might
toss him over, he beat the horse to
death.
AS the horse dropped, the prince
was thrown and suffered a few slight
Injuries. This makes the second horse
in the past few months that was killed
by the prince after imbibing of "joy-
juice" too freely.

OSCAR Violin, coroner Of Cook Coun-
Wy, recently issued a sensational
statement when announcing the sum-
mary discharge Of deputy coroner.
The coroner cites the case of a col
ored prisoner who was shot dead by
the police while his hands were point
ed towards the ceiling. The negro
was unarmed. The deputy coroner's
official finding was 'justifable
homicide" The widow Of man who
died of "acute alcoholism" was not
legally entitled to any insurance her
deceased husband might carry be-

ONE of the assistant sob-sisters on
Othe Herald Examiner, Hearsts
morning rag in Chicago, tells us that
queen Marie Of Roumania works as a
cure for grief. The lady's grief was
caused by the awkwardness of one of
her male progeny in getting his pros
titutes indecently mixed with the
business of the Bratiano brothers who
are good enough to run the country as
long as they can loot it, taking every
thing in sight and forcing the poor
queen to contribute to the Hearst
press in order to support the royal
family. According to brother George
of England queen Marie is not exact
ly the kind of a girl to put in charge
Of nunnery. Which eminently quail
fies her for a position on the Hearst
press.

every third Sunday. Since the New
York Office cannot get enough girl
workers, those on the Job frequently
work thru two weeks or more without
a day off.
Western Union pays transportation
to and from New York to girl ma
chine telegraphers who promise to
stay three months, one of the Salt
Lake City girls declares. In the Nor
mon town the girls are not paid while
learning and $S5 per month is the
high wage for all but workers who
have been years with the company.
Nervous Tension Increased.
Girls work eight hour shifts with
half hour lunch and two 15 minutes
.recesses. No girl can leave her place
until relieved by another. Each ma
chine telegrapher must keep her eyes
following the moving line of print
which the automatic types out on tape
or on rolls of paper. She must catch
every mistake. She must be able to
touch type messages on the automatic
sender. The work strains eyes, ears
and nerves.
The machines connect all the prin-
cipal telegraph points in the country.
The girl types on the machine in New
York and the message is printed off
by a machine in, say, Seattle, where
another worker pastes it on a blank
for distribution. The messages are
relayed to Offices not having automa-
tic connection by Morse telegraphers,
men and girls who tap out the mes
sages by hand over wires which car
ry many messages at once. Machines
and girls, producing much more work
per hour, have displaced Morse oper-
ators who once did all the work and
were unionized. Morse operators still
get higher wages than the machine
workers. Pneumatic tubes connect
many New York branch Offices, ELI
minating even more Morse telegraph
ers.

Guaranty Fund Body
Takes No Action on
Proposal of Banks

No action was taken by the state
guaranty fund commission on pro-
posal by numerous banks. creditors
Of the closed Williams County State
Bank of Williston. whereby the banks
would turn over to the state receiver
of closed banks assets now held by
them in return for the promise Of
the guaranty fund commission not
to prosecute any action against them
in connection with the banks affairs.
Although no formal expression was
made by the guaranty fund commits
sion it was indicated that they did
not consider the offer substantial
enough to warrant its acceptance.
The guaranty fund commission has
contended that the banks in question,
located in Minot. Duluth, Buffalo.
\. V. and the Twin Cities were
trustees for the Williams County
State Bank at the time it closed and
had been for some time prior to it's
closing As such trustees. it is claim
ed. they were responsible for the
safety Of deposits made while they
acted in that capacity. A statement
of the case by state officials shows
that the banks loaned money to the
| Williston institution in an effort to
| tide it over and otherwise aided it
| in it's unsuccessful fight for exist
ence.
The proposal of the banks was to
turn over to the receiver part of the
assets turned over to them by the

proceeds applied on a dividend to the
banks creditors.
The position OF the guaranty fund
commission in all such cases is that
