More important. however. is the fact
that Bolivia has taken measures 10

announced, have been received from
Bolivian residents in Chile. Argentine,

The way was paved for todays meet
iuS of the conference at two-nour
executive session yesterday OF the specla!
committee looking into the boundary
dispute after the receipt of Argentlnas
communication to the United states
welcoming the peace efforts OF the
conference. The decision was fastened
also by the renewed indications from
Paraguay, particularly, that the crisis
was hourly becoming more acute.
Along with the committee recon-
mendation that the conference take
action there also will be submitted
number of proposals as to the way IN
which this should be done. InaI course
is for the conference to decide.
Divided as to Methods.
DR.. Victor Maurtua of Peru, chair
man of the committee, stated before
the conference opened that his col
leagues, among whom Charles Evans
Hughes is the American representa-
tive. had expressed views as to how
to achieve the desired end. To this
extent, he said, there had been diver
Sity of opinion.
Up until the receipts of the Argen-
tine communication the special commit
tee had been laboring under the dis
advantage of the participation of
the Argentine Republic in the parley.
Argentina, the only Latin American
country not represented at the cnr-
ference, has been engaged for some
time in trying to mediate the Douli~ry

Newspapers today commented that
the gesture of the Indians was an indi-
cation of civic consciousness In quar-

pected in so great degree. They saw
in the Indians themselves, a powerful
and possibly decisive factor in event of
war with Paraguay.

President Siles formed new cabinet
of national concentration to replace the
former ministry which resigned to leave
the President free to act as he chose in

A Shame

1t is to be regretted very much
that it was left to non-C Christians and
outsiders to have to raise the money
to assist the pastor of Allen A. NJ. E.
Chapel to get to the annual confer
ence. We hate to see our preachers
Inundated to this extent. Some of
the members are not to blame, hav-
ing done all they could in paying their
church obligations. Others, how
ever, by petty selfishness and un-
Christian grudges, forgot that the
money they give is supposed to be
given to God-and in getting even"
with the preacher they held back
from God what they are obliged to
pay. A church obligation is a debt
just as much as any other debit
is not a free gift. To support the
pastor according to your means is
a duty devolving upon every Chris
tian; because the preacher said or
did something one does not like is no
excuse. as1

Thorton Evans to Be
Heard In Farewell Concert

Prior to leaving Tacoma for an
extended tour of Eastern cities,
Thorton L. Evans, recognized as the
foremost colored baritone of the
Pacific Northwest, will be heard in
a farewell recital Friday night; Sep
TENDER IA, at the Temple of Music.
Mr.. Evans is the most promising
singer developed in this section for
many years and wonderful future
is predicted for him.. He has a rich,
resonant voice which enables him to
sing with ease the most difficult
operate and classical music. His
singing of Negro spirituals and melo-
dies is unsurpassed. He has been
heard frequently over the radio and
radio listeners have expressed their
admiration of his splendid voice.
Mr.. Evans will be assisted in his
farewell concert by Mrs. LIE Eta
King, pianist, of Seattle and local
talent. Every citizen in Tacoma
should attend the concert as a trib-
ute to the young singer and give
him a rousing send-off on his in
vasion of the East.

effect until the court has admitted
it and appointed an administrator or
an executor. Where there is no will
an administrator must be appointed.
The practice of delaying this matter
sometimes causes serious trouble.
Title TO real estate must be shown
upon the county records, and it is
contrary to law to dissipate the
money or other property before
proper action is taken in the courts.
Never transact any of this business

Politics are getting hot now; the
candidates are scurrying around and
hustling for votes. One cannot go

HAND from every side. After next

WHY they did it.
