We no longer approach big issues
such as prohibition with Jul minds
all cluttered up with prejudice. We
really investigate u problems and
find out whether our opinion of them
is right or wrong
One shudders q little at the very
idea of what our good old-fashioned
union women would have said at the
very idea that good women could
serve or q committee which wasn't
out and out avowedly sure that the
lips that touched liquor and eyes that
looked too long upon the wine when
it was red belonged to human beings
who were all that was low and de-
graded.
One wonders what the "teetotaler''
ladies of Carrie Nations time and ilk
would have said at the spectacle Of
women banding themselves together
to learn If it might not indeed be
well If the old fashioned saloon came
back.
Even today there are certain female
temperance societies which do little
more than hand out pledge cards and
white ribbons to their members, take
solemn VOWS to ostracize from their
communities all human beings sus-
pected of ever imbibing the fer
mented grape, and have no more
touch with the social and economic

most of which time was spent in Washington, D. c. Two months Of the time was devoted to working on the Navy mapping program and it is owing to MT. Flory's efforts that it was decided to complete the work this summer.
 The Navy department, the U. s. Forest Service, the Bureau of Pub lie Roads and the Alaska branch of the Geological Survey cooperate in bearing the expense of the work. R. H. Sargent, typographical pho tographer of the Geological Survey, has been detailed by the Depart ment of the Interior to act as Jason officer between the different de- l partments and the Navy in con- ducting the field work, as he did three years ago, MT. Flory said. Three amphibian planes, a large barge and a tender, probably the Gannett, will be part of the equip ment to carry on the work. The planes are larger than those used by the Navy in the first mapping expedition in this country, MT. Flory declared.
 Naval Head Interested
 Admiral Hughes, Chief of Naval Operations, is very much interested in the project and is anxious for it to be as successful as the first one was, MT. Flory declared A num- Der of those who were here with the other Naval mapping group will return next month and be here for the two months the work will take, he said.
 In addition to working on the mapping program, MT. Flory con- ferred with the heads of various ! departments acting in his capacity of coordinator between the depart ments doing related work in the Territory, to make for greater sim plicity and greater ease in trans acting business in the field.
 On Game Question
 He made a trip to New York on game questions connected with the National Game Protective As sociation, and after leaving Wash. ington stopped in Ohio to visit with his mother, before continuing tc the West Coast.

Troops Are MaSSed
BY EUGENE LYONS
United Press Staff Corresnordent

MOSCOW July 13.--Reports of
concentration of Manchurian and
Soviet troops along the Russian
borders in the east were published
in the Soviet press today, together
with the first information which has
been made public here of the cur
rent clash between Russia and
China over the Chinese seizure Of
the eastern railway.
The Soviet newspapers gave a full
account Of the railway seizure and
the, Chinese confscation of the tel
ephone and telegraph lines in Man
churia, as we'll as the subsequent
arrest of some 200 Russian railway
officials, including the manager OF
the Harbin headquarters.
The foreign colony had known of
the trouble between China and Rus
sia for some time, but today was
the first time that the general pop
ulace here had been informed Of the
threatening trouble.
In well-informed quarters it was
doubted there would be an armed
conflict between the two nations.
II was believed the Russian gov
ernment would prepare a sharp note
of protest to the. Chinese govern
ment. citing its grievances and de-
manding respect for the existing
treaties
1t was argued also any attempt to
regain by force the control Of the
railway might hurt the Soviet's self
appointed role of friend to colonial
and Serni-colonial people.

CHICAGO, July 13.-The charred
body Of Theodore Hammel, so, was
taken from the furnace of his va
cant apartment building here Fri
day night. He failed to come home
for dinner and a search was begun.
Relatives and police believed Ham
mel ended his own life, despite the
apparent improbability of suicide
in such a manner. Indications were
he had swathed himself in burlap,
drenched it with an inf1ammable
LIQUID and craWled into the fireboX.
Then. as police reconstructed it, he
applied a match.
Members of the family and friends
told of Hammel'S financial worries.
His apartment building had stood
idle for months. Mortgages total
ing $4,000 were about due.
Hammel's wife. Mrs. Alice Ham,
mel. an invalid. fearing her husband
might have been overcome by the
heat. asked her niece, Miss Carmen
Hammel. to go to the apartment
building and see if he were there.
The niece called a friend, James
Cregg. to accompany her.
Miss Hammel and Gregg searched
every fiat, the Storeroom and the
laundry-even the coal bins-with-
out success. As they prepared to
leave. the girl jeStingly remarked:
Maybe he crawled into the
furnace to keep cool"
Gregg flashed searchlight
through the furnace door and the
lights rays revealed the body.

Watson and Reed making this an
