BY GENE HOFF1GA An

LAKE FOREST Ill, Oct
E31 Mystery surrounding the
horrible burning of pretty
sifrieda Knaak, former Uni
|versity Of Chicago coed and
Sunday school teacher, was
cleared today with the girl's
own story, sobbed from bed.
Of pain in a Lake Forest
hospital.
Miss Knaak said she held her
body to the roaring mouth Of the
furnace in the basement of the
Lake Bluff police station to ''pur-
ify" herself and show her faith
when. he psychic sweetheart" failed
10 keep an appointment with her.
Her head, arms and feet were
horribly burned. Even IL she re-
covers, physicians say. both arms
and possibly the right leg will have
to be amputated.
Love Rite. A Strange One
The eerie love rite, unparalleled
in the lore of psychic phenomena,
occurred Monday midnight in the
police station where the man she
claims as her spiritual lover
Charles w. Hitchcock-was en-
pIoyed as night marshal.
Hitchcock is IS years old and the
father of four children. BY day
he is a teacher of salesmanship,
public speaking and expression.
Miss Knaak seemed not to know
that for the past week Hitchcock
has been laid up at his home with
a broken leg.
The young woman's story of how
she climbed to the mouth of the
furnace and held herself there until
she apparently dropped unconscious
to the floor. tailed with facts in
the possession of investigators. Her
nude body was found near the fur.
| mace early yesterday. She was
rushed to the Lake Forest Hospital

States Attorney A. v. Smith of

asked:
''Who did this?'
/ Il did it myself--for faith, for
purity" she whispered
BY degrees. this story was drawn
from her.
II have known Mr.. Hitchcock for
four years. l studied from him
while | was teaching school in Wau-
kegan. A few months ago I got
to know him spiritually.
| Understand this was no material
love affair. Advanced psychology

| That was his voice.
Thus we communed, though ma

When he did not appear. I COM

Not O-atOry Business
BY BRUCE CATION

The traditional statesman with his frock coat,
string tie and silvertongued oratory is extinct and
Senator Henry F. AshurSt of Arizona sees no reason
to bewail his passing.
~roday's statesman" says Senator Ashurst to a
midwest real estate board, sis business-Ae gentle
man in an ordinary business suit who either mas
wide knowledge Of business affairs or is doing his
best to accumulate that necessary knowledge
For this age the senator explains, is the age OF
science and business We no longer have rcd Indians
to kill, wild forests to clear, menacing foreign
enemies to rcpel Our problems call for the business
man, the banker the engineer and the chemist not
the politician.

and instruments in twentieth century world III

forever and that the America of today is not the
America of Lincons day.
All change Is apt to be bit frightening. 1t is
easy to mistake growing pains fer the symptoms OF
mortal Illness Accordingly, it is not surprising that
a great many people are worried over America
future.
We find liberals everywhere lamenting the pass
ing of the old public interest in politics, crying out
that we will lose liberties because we are indher-
ent to elections and issues shudderng at the fact
that power is passing to the hands Of the Industrial
list and the banker.
we need to forget the romantic past and become
reaists. We have no Webstcrs and Calhouns today;
WELL what of it? They would be helpless if they
were here. Our national destiny is pehg Shapeo less
and less at Washington, more and more in New
York banks, Detroit auto factories Schenectady
laboratories and the mills of Pittsburgh and Birm-
ingham. Maybe this is too bad and maybe it isn't;
at any rate that is the way of it, and the sooner
realize it the better for us. q
When America adopted mass production 1t started
out on an entirely new track in civilization. Never
before did any nation set out to live by the machine
We have started a path from which we could not
turn back if would; why not wake up to that
fact and stop thinking in terms of 1880?
We are at the dawning of new era. There is no
need for larnentation.

when the injunction was the other way is not absent
here
The company, the judge found, was paying men
to organize its own union.
Upon foundation laid in direct violation of the
statute, they have sought to erect supersructure of
exclusive representation They have gone about to
arrange it that the railroad would be in position
of surely having vote both sides of the table
its side and that of its employees"
The judge directed that the brotherhood should
be re-establshed the representative organization
of the men, and that employees who had been dis
charged because of supporting the brotherhood
should be reinstated.
He directed that the incidents involved be re-
ferred to the proper officers of the government to
determine whether proceedings for criminal contempt
should be undertaken
And finally this; 1T is further ordered and ad-
judged that if defendants fail to perform or
more Of the acts ordered they shall be sent to and
confined in the Harris County Jail until such time
as they ready and willing to perform such acts.
The railroad officers given ten days to de-
eide whether they would obey the court Our guess is
that they will. Meantime we nominate Judge
Hutchinson for the next vacancy the United
States Supreme bench.

Here's a Judge!

The spectacle of three officials of railroad being
threatened with jail by federal judge because Of
their actions in labor dispute is refreshing. Not
that wish to see the gentlemen locked up. 1t is
simply that the incident is unusual.
Six or seven hundred injunctions were issued last
year. regulating the conduct of workers but so far
know this is the only instance where court
interviewed to protect the workers from the actions
of their employers.
The Southern Pacific lines in Texas, it seems
sought to replace the brotherhoods of the workers
with company union, and rejected the Offices of the
board of mediation set up By Congress
The company enjoined, and subsequently
the workers went before Judge j. C. Hutchinson with
the plea that the injunction being ignored. The
Judge held that the railroad not only violating
federal law but also was ignoring the injunction.
while it is hard to believe that railroad and
its officers deliberately would seek to set at naught
both the legislative and judicial power Of the United
States" he said, sit is difficult to avoid the con-
csion that the violation of the statute and of the
Injunction was the result of strong and settled pur-
pose to defy BOTH and that the spirit of heady violence
to obtain its ends which often has exhibited itself
in these labor disputes in the conduct of employees

Rounania

Every so often the average newspaper reader lifts
his eyes from his paper and wonders audbly why in
thunder there is so much stuff printed about
Rumania Probably he concludes that the country
must have q good press agent.
Rumania before the war distinctly minor
nation. Since then, however, it has occupied an
important position in European affairs 1t is more
than twice as large and twice popuouS as it was
before 1914 It's position one of the middle-sized
states Of Europe and its very strategic geography
location have made important in European politics.
Rumania expanded at the expense OF Hungary
and Russia These countries would like to get their
territories back; Rumania, naturally wants to keep
them The result is game of alliances and dipo-
matte screenings The peace of Europe rests in no
small measure on what Tumanie and her enemies
do
Hence the nation has Importance far greater
than it had before the war Which, of course, is why
the details of its internal troubles get front page
space in newspapers.

Intellectual Progress

General John j. Carly, who was
awarded the John Fritz medal for
achievements in telephone engineer
ing. declares that the intellectual
evolution of the individual may
have come to an end, but whether
this is true or not. it is certain that
the intellectual evolution of groups
of individuals is only at the begin
ming"
That is not only big, but en-
couraging thought.
If we have come to point where
the individual can Go no more by
himself. we have also come to a
point where individuals working to-
gethcr can attain undreamed of
ends.
The strength of the modern world
consists in its power to preserve and
communicate knowledge.
knowledge has ceased to be some
thing that the individual must ac-
quire and keep.
The object of education IS no
longer to pump SO much of it into
his head, or to create within him
the capacity of producing it.
The most important purpose edu-
cation serves now is to teach men
how to find and employ the knowl-
edge their fellows and forefatherS
nave discovered and stored away.
