IFS officers had to their credit today

mill strikers who wished to parade,
and Miss Ellen Dawson, young Com
munist, faced another charge in court.
Displaying bayoneted rifles, pistols
and night sticks, the officers charged
the paraders. numbering between 200
and 800, soon after they started their
parade. Unlike that of the preceding
day, yesterdays was broken up without
injuries, the strikers dispensing quietly.
Only Miss Dawson was arrested as the
leader.

WAR DEBTS RAISED
IN BRITISH ELECTION
Churchill Replies to Stand
Taken by SnoWden and
Labor Leader.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, April Authorizations
war debt settlements continue to bulk
large in the campaign for the APP
preaching general elections. Chancel-
Tor Of the Exchequer Winston Churchill
has issued a. statement replying to
Philip Snowden, former chancellor, who
first raised the question in the House
OF Commons several days ago. Snow
den was supported by J. r. Clynes,
former Labor Minister, In speech at
Sheffield.
Mr.. Churchill said the position of
the Labor party as declared by Mr..
SnoWden was for al1-around cancella-
tons OF debts and reparations, but If
this was carried out Britain, receiving
nothing from the continent and paying
nothing to the United States, would be
neither better nor worse of than under
the postwar settlements.
I'VE at the present moment under
the policy of the Balfour note are in
virtually the same position and this we
are determined to maintain" Mr..
Churchill said. 'The proposal that we
should take more from Europe than
America takes from us is irreconcilable
with the Labor party declaration In
favor OF general cancellation Of debts
and PREPARATIONS"
The chancellor concluded that "Mr
Snowden apparently is so blinded by
his hatred of France that he cannot
see that he is demanding two contrary
things at the same time"
Although millions of workers were
engaged III the Great War, the Labor
party had no hand in the peace settle
ment and its views had been scorned."
declared Mr.. Clynes. No economists or
trusted experts could be found who
agreed with the terms of the debt set
tlement. Economic interests and indus
trial life suffered more in Great Britain
than in any other country, he said.
He said that no one could defend the
policy Of reputation CT debt agree
ments, but that all other methods to in
sure better terms for Great Britain
must be open to a Labor government
because the debt interest IS tn largest
single item in the national expenditure

Reeds Swan Songs.

Jim Reed of Missouri is singing his
swan songs. To friend and foe alike
they make sweet music; sweet to his
foes because they are swan songs, sweet
to his friends because they sparkle with
the brilliance and sting with the sharp
ness that have made Reed of Missouri
the Senate's greatest drawing card.
With Reed or against him, one could
never grow weary of hearing him talk.
In the grip of one of the frenzies into
which his forensic efforts seem to throw
him, he is master in the use of all the
tricks Of the oratorical trade. His voice
can ring with passion or tremble with
sublime emotion. Striding about with
the fury Of Gagged beast, Furnishing the
furniture with vicious blows or standing
silent and still to accentuate the So
lemnity of the moment, Reed hyppo-
ties his hearers and holds them in his
spell. The precision and the beauty of
his rolling sentences are the more
marked by reason of the speed with
which he hurls them forth.
Prohibition, on Saturday, gave him a
text that suits him best. He must have
something to attack; one cannot picture
him on the defense. His words are darts
that perforate or tear; they were never
nodded as shield or buckler Reed
usually has been allied with the "antis.
More than one good" cause has fell
the consuming scorch Of his bitter In
yectiye. But to his credit be 1t said

Reyes Case Verdict
Viewed as Warming

From the Pasadena Star-News
With jury of his peers, consisting of
10 women and men, finding Asa
Reyes, former district attorney of Los
Angeles County, and two co-defendants
guilty of criminal conspiracy to give and
receive brides, the people of this county
have been given startling object
lesson and a grim warning.
With the trial ended and the verdict
rendered the case properly may be dis
cussed. The testimony adduced in this
trial was shocking. A high official of
Los Angeles County. intrusted with the
administration of justice as pertains to
criminality, engaged in consortings and
IN receiving money and valuable gifts
from a source the most questionable,
to say the least. Just considering the
surface OF the testimony and the admis-
sions made by defendants. enough was
brought out to show that Mr.. Reyes was
not fit for the Office he held. The
jury after hearing and bordering the
evidence. on single ballot finds Mr..
Reyes and Rosenberg and Getzoff, his
co-defendants, guilty. Let 1t be said
that, should this verdict be sustained.
the defendants should be punished as
Is any ordinary criminal. There should
be no semblance of fayoritism-no
escaping the law through legal tech
nicalities.
The most that profitably may be said
in connection with this case should be
said to the people of Los Angeles
County, and to them should be said:
Do not leave to politicians and to a
minority of qualified voters the noml-
mating and electing of the district at
torney or any other county Official.

Fortune Tellers.

There are nearly eighty licensed for
tune-tellers in Washington.
They minister, with varying degrees
of individual skill, to a clientele which
ranges from charwomen to Congress
men. Belief in the occult is Deep
seated in human nature. 1t is fruitIess
to attempt to remove this belief by ar
gument Experience is full of coinci-
dences which cannot easily be explained
by any known natural law. No scientific
test can be devised which is absolutely
convincing unless one desires to be con-
WINGED. The occult practitioner always
can say that the very conditions of
the test itself introduce elements which
alter the results. We live in circle of
experience, and outside that circle all
is mystery. We have no way of prob
ing the mystery, but we can hardly say
with any degree Of confidence that it is
improbable.
The fact remains that many of these
Washington fortune -tellers derive good
incomes from peddling self-evident nom
sense. They lack even the traditional
cleverness of the occult craft. A few
have exploits to their credit which defy
offhsnd explanation. These are decid-
edly in the minority. Most of the seers
and seeresses simply have set pieces
which they recite in rambling, dreamy
way, without much effort to fit them to
the individual customer. They are not
even good observers of human nature
Any one who wants to believe in the
powers of certain persons to predict the
future has the right to do so. 1t may
not be presumptuous, however, to offer
a suggestion. Do not agree or disagree
with anything the fortune-teller says.
DO not write anything on paper. If
these two precautions are adopted, in
nine cases out of ten the prober of the
infinite will more than likely expose
herself.
Folks believe in fortune-tellers, even
in the most obviously fraudulent ones,
simply because they want to believe,
and they manufacture their own CO.
medicines to bolster up this belief.
They credit the occultist with telling
them things she never told them, but
which they told her.
The seeress hypnotizes her patrons
with good tidings. Seldom. indeed, does
she make unwelcome predictions. Her
forecasts of fate are so good that few
have the heart to believe that they are
false.

with the stronger roads. Further, there
LIS the argument that by consultations
the railroads will be more economically
operated.
The consolidation bill, which has
been the subject OF careful study by
the Senate interstate commerce COM
mittee for years, at all events will be
given consideration when the Congress
meets in regular session in December.
1t is not inconceivable that it may be
one of the major problems for the Con-
gress to consider at that time If farm
relief and tariff revision shall have been
definitely disposed of for the time at
the special session this Spring.
The mills of the Government grind
slowly. This has been the case with
regard to railroad consolidation. Much
depends upon the attitude OF the pub
lie toward the problems involved. The
consolidation bill is put forward at this
time, it is explained, so that the coun-
try may have chance to null it over,
as we'll as the members of Congress and
the railroads themselves. II there de-
velops real sentiment back of the pro-
posal for this legislation it is likely to
be given serious consideration in the
coming Congress.
