was not Theodore Roosevelt, but
George Washington
This fact is revealed in a new
book, George Washington, Colonial
Traveller" written by John C. Fitz-
patrick and published by Bobbs-Mer-
rill of Indianapolis. Mr.. Fitzpatrick
is already known as the editor of the
Washington Diaries and one of the
leading authorities on the life of
Washington, and his official position
as assistant chief of the manuscript
division of the Library of Congress,
which enabled him to search every
important document in the national
storeheuse of historical treasures
has made it possible for him to pre-
sent the first complete documentary
record of Washington's career from
his birth in 1872 to that day i'm 1875
when his life as colonial gentleman
ended and he became COMMANDMENTS.
chief of the Continental army.
In his PREDATORY note, Mr.. Fitzpat-
rick makes this statement:
Few inhabitants of Colonial America
travelled the country so widely or con-
tinuously as did George Washington
and it is not too much to suppose that
this acquaintance with his native land
had a decided bearing upon that broad
patriotism which was his distinguish
ing mark from the moment he took
command of the Continental armies.

Tolerant in Religion

Religious tolerance was dear to
the heart of George Washington,
judging from letter which he wrote
to the third general convention of
the Episcopal church in Philadelphia
in August, 1889. The letter was In
answer to one congratulating him on
his elevation to the Presidency.

Paper From Bamboo?

1t has been considered impractical
to make paper from bamboo because it
was expensive to reduce and seemed

the Pirate chief. His baseball rec
ord seems like a romance. No
pitcher in the majors had much
of an edge on this veteran rookie
of last year when he finally did
arrive after his 12-year journey.
Wide, sweeping curves, lots of
speed, battling delivery and a
cool head and a game heart and a
steel arm, he worked in over forty
games and brought that aid to the
Pirate staff that was necessary to
win the flag. He was beaten in his
world series game, but not dis
graced. Let them say what they
will, it was not poor pitching that
cost the Pirates the series in four
straight games. Kremer, Hill and
Milius all pitched with great effec-
tiveness against the smuggling Yanks.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson g. McKinnon)

NEW YORK, June 21.-It looks to
us as though a good deal of the
distressed selling which made its
appearance during the past few days
is now out of the way. With this
pressure lifted and another sub
stantial reduction in brokers loans
expected, today's market may con-
tinue the upward movement which
was started in the closing minutes
of Tuesdays session. News from in
dustrial centers, while still in linn
tied supply, reports continued i'm
provement in motors and oils and
may have good influence in these
groups. The money situation, how
ever, is acute, and there appears
nothing ahead indicating that a
change for the better can be looked
for in the immediate future. We
would, therefore, continue with the
suggestion that liquidation be &C
complished on bulges.

in Europe to study the features of
British royalty for an entire eve

Both King George and Queen
Mary are known to visit theaters in
London at least once a month. On
these occasions they invariably en-
ter the building by a private door
and are conducted to the royal box.
In general they seem to prefer
"thrillers."
The chances Of seeing the Prince
of Wales at a London theater are
even greater than that of catching
sight of his father and mother.
Wales Is Theater Fan
He visits London shows on an
average Of three times a week. His
preference is for musical produc-
lions.
The Prince seldom witnesses
theatrical performances from a box.
He almost invariably orders, and al
ways pays like anyone else, for or
chestra. Thus, frequently he spends
an entire evening in the midst of
the general public. Often his pres
ence is unrecognized by the
audience.

FLOOD OF Laws
PERIL TO u, S.,
BANKERS View
Says Restrictions, Taxes
Will Break Down
Democracy.
BY MAX STERN

SAN FRANCISCO, June 21.-
Americas penchant for passing a
law" is about the only thing that
worries Thomas Ross Preston, Ham
ilton, Tenn, president of the Ameri-
can Bankers Association, who is
visiting his brother, Supreme Justice
John w. Preston here.
Ross is not afraid of the con-
centration of wealth, and he doesn't
think wealth will destroy the soul
of this country. But he is going
about warning the republic is in
danger of choking out democracy
with too many laws.
1.-The U. S. A. is civilizations
greatest asset" says Banker Preston,
but sometimes I wonder if we're
not in danger of legislating our
future away.
Restrictions and Taxes
mo democracy has lasted more
than 200 years. Restrictions OF
liberties and increases in taxes have
always ruined them. This country
has become great because Of It's
freedom, but in the past thirty years
has come an incessant demand for
more laws, laws, laws. In the last
Congress 1892 laws were proposed,
and among them were ITO proposals
to amend the Constitution.
Today the State Legislatures are
flooded with laws. Proposals total
ing 75,772 year are being laid
before the legislatures and Is per
cent of them become laws. We have
passed more laws in the United
States in the 14O years Of existence
than all the rest of the world since
the birth Of Christ.
1--WE are the only people on earth
willing to fight for freedom and
then turn around and legislate our
freedom away.
Passing Laws Too Fast
\"Or law-passing machinery is
working too fast for even the courts.
Our Federal courts are reduced al
most to the status of police courts.
Before them are pending $1,000
criminal cases. In New York if
every man demanded his right to
a jury trial the courts would be
500 years behind in clearing the
Federal calendar.
You can now punish a man for
the same crime in both State
and Federal court, and I suppose
soon we'll be hanging men twice.
When the courts break down the
end of civilization is in sight.
Look at our bureaus and COM
1nissionsl There are now thirty
six commissions regulating railroads
alone. To regulate the $4,000 IN
dams we have 5000 Government
employees. There are one-half as
many employees of the Veterans
Bureau as men wounded in the
great war.
