when Carthage, the African en-
pire that crumbled before the
might of Roman legions, shone
like a jewel in the desert, were
re-enacted today when celebration
Of high mass formally opened
the first session Of the eucharistic
congress.
The full glory Of Catholicism
conveyed for the day about the
golden throne in the Cathedral
of TuniS, where Cardinal Lepicier
of France, the papal legate. slowly
kunrolled the papal bull and read
the edict which made him legate
of the pontiff, empowering him
to open the congress.

About him, robed in Silken
mantleS of red and white, lined
with gold, knelt cardinals from
all parts Of the world, with His
Eminence, Cardinal O'Connell,
archbishop Of Boston, represent
ing the far-off United States Of
America.
Conspicuous in the brilliant
throng was the distinct group
of 100 priests and 200 pilgrims
who had come from America.
AS the final intonations of the
high mass merged into q great
common chorus Of praise to God,
Cardinal Lepicier lifted the sacred
montrance and marched to the
; high steps of the cathedral to
bestow the papal blessing upon
the multitude outside.

Great lines Of French troops
and swarthy native soldiers lined
the Plaza, acting as barrier to
the pressing thousands who braved
the desert heat to receive the
Pope'S blessing. AS that was pro

roared out a salute, bells tolled
and the massed humanity bowed
in reverence.
It was the first time in the

POWERFUL WET
GROUP TO STEP
into SPOTLIGHT
Drys to Learn at Lobby
Probe That They Face
Formidable Foe.

BIZ Scripps-Houard Newspaper AUi1Hce
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE
drys may learn Tuesday that they
now face as aggressive, wen-organ-
lied, and well-1nanced wet group as
the Anti-Saloon League.
The wet organization, which has
directors possessing a combined
wealth of hundreds of millions Of
dollars, is the Association Against
the Prohibition Amendment, whose
president, Henry H. Curran of New
York, is expected to describe his
organizations activities before the
senate lobby committee.
Previous disclosures concerning
the prominence of its leaders and
their large contributions already
have given concern to the prohibit
tionistS, whose own forces have
slackened their efforts since the
dry laws YER enacted.
Refusal Of Curran to turn over
certain documents until Subpoenaed
is regarded as significant by SEN
ator Arthur Robinson of Indiana,
Republican member of the commit
tee.
In other quarters it is known
that the association would like to
withhold data on the extensive
campaign of propaganda and or
~ganization it has undertaken, not
because it is in any way repre-
hensible, according to the wet
body's sponsors. but because they
figure what the dryS don't know
won't hurt them.
It is known, however, that the
association will spend at least ST.
00G 900 this year for research, or
ganization, and stimulation Of in
terest in the anti side of prohibit
ton. 1t also has had considerable
success in forming state, city,
county and community groups in
almost every section of the country.
The lobby Investigators may find
that the association has succeeded
in amalgamating almost all the wet
groups which formerly functioned
alone and somewhat hap-hazardly.
Experienced social and economic
students have been engaged to pre-
pare reports.

in the United States 67287 attended
school of some kind during the past
year. The recent report of the Unitec
States Indian Commissioner indicates
that the indians do very well with
school problems; but there is a sug-
geStion in the report that the matter
of suitable employment of the Indians
after leaving school is still an unsolved
problem. There is an cd belief that
the Indian likes to return to his
blankets" and doubtless many of them
still go back to the primitive ways of
their people. The Indian Service has
never had a developed and system
attic organization to help the young
indian find employment, or an oc-
cupation, during the critical PERIOD
after he leaves school when he should
take up the affairs of life himself
Unless the young Indian or woman
be placed in and become adjusted to
an occupation adapted to his interest,"
and abilities, then the whole scheme
of education and civilization fails"
says the Government report.
Wild Turkeys Coming Back
From various parts of the country
for the last few years there have COME
reports that the wild turkey, almost
extinct except in thickly wooded
mountainous and inaccessible regions
Is becoming more numerous, and Is
even venturing nearer the settlements
than has been its habit. One of these
birds, shot near the Presidents Sum-
mer Camp in Virginia, was sent to the
White House by one of President
Hoover's neighbors on the Rapidan at
Thanksgiving.
The apparent comeback of the wild
turkey after being almost extinct, is
the cause of much interest on the part
of nature lovers and sportsmen.

GIVE HOUSE PLANTS
DAILY ATTENTION NOW

Look out for gas, cold air, over or
under watering, and insects; ana pro-
vide light and fresh air when pos
sible," is the advice offered on the
correct winter care of house plants by
L. Sando, floriculturist, University
Farm, ST. Paul. These hints should
be especially welcomed just now by
many folks who have received house
plants as Christmas gifts, or who have
purchased few to nven up the home
during the cold months.
Changing plants from greenhouse
conditions to those in the average
home requires special care, says Mr..
,Sando, as this means bringing them
into a much drier and warmer at
mosphere. Water well, but do not
leave water standing at the base Of
the plants. Raise plants about an
inch or two above the level of the
water, if a saucer, tray or jardiniere
is used When possible, Towering
plants should be removed to cooler
room at night, if the room where they
are kept by day is maintained at
average temperature.
Dust, gas, extreme heat, drafts from
doors or windows, and irregularity in
watering, all are harmful. InSecs
pests should be controlled by frequent
spraying with a good commercial in
secticide. Dust should be removed
from the leaves by sponging, using a
soft cloth or sponge. Gas is less easily
controlled, but keeping the plants as
far as possible from where gas is used
will help. Cold winds or drafts are
fairly easily to control; if from WIN
dows, several thicknesses of news
papers placed between the plants and
the windows will prevent damage
Examine all plants daily, whether
they require water or not, Mr.. Sando
advises. See that good drainage is
provided. If plants are not doing well,
check up on conditions mentioned
above before disturbing the roots or
a plant, or before reporting it. Light
in the average window is never too
strong in the winter, but in spring
ferns should be placed in the shadiest
window.

CROSSING A THROUGH STREET

The rule of common sense again mas
been affirmed by the Minnesota sup
RENE Court, which tells motorists now
they can have the benefit OF the right
of-way when they enter a stop street.
Motorists have such rlght-o1-Way,
the court holds. Merely because
street is marked with stop" signs is
no ground for speeders to claim over
whelming rights and to go heedlessiy
on their way. Once the interSectlng
lnotorist has complied with the stop
order of the sign, he has the same
rights as the motorists on any other
street. There is no special charm In
the stop sign on the through street
10 do away with common sense.
But the motorists who thus stops
and then proceeds into the intersection
must do so with due consideration OF
the immediate circumstances. The
law of the road is not unyielding," the
court says. 1T does not invariably
give the vehicle to the right the pre-
ference. Drivers of vehicles always
must be mindful Of the abiding rule
recurring exercise of due care to avoid
a collision"
This disposeS of the rights OF the
intersector, as against the road hog
who drives through the street regard
less of all other persons. But 1t does
not eliminate the hog. That Is some
thing beyond the power of the Sup
RENE Court.
incidentally the court warns vio-
lators of traffic laws 1t tells them
they may not recover damages If they
fail to obey the stop order and then
are injured in the intersection. Only
with clean hands can one claim the
benefit of the right of way rule.
Common sense is law enough, on
the highway The trouble is, it isn't
common enough.-Minneapoli jour
