WAR VETERANS HURL
BOMBS INTO STORE
Patrons Routed by Gas Fumes as
Armistice Day Operation Is
Protested by Soldiers.
Nv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ST. CLAIRSVILLE, Ohio, November
13.-Angered over failure Of a grocers'
store to close In observance Of Armistice
day, q platoon of Belmont County
World War veterans Tuesday hurled
tear bombs into the place. Patrons
and employees were forced to nee, gasp
ing for air. -
The bursting Of the tear gas bombs
in the store created more excitement
In this city than any event since news
Of signing Of the armistice q dozen
years ago.
Operators Of the store protested
against the attack to Mayor c. d.
Bradfeld, but no charges were filed.
The mayor said his proclamation call
ing for closing of all stores was not
mandatory, but that he intended ask
ing Council to pass an ordinance re-
curing Armistice day closing hereafter.
The bombs were taken by the veter-
ans from the sheriff's ONCE. A deputy
eheriff on duty there said he permitted
them to enter the ammunition supply
room, thinking they desired material
for Q demonstration. They marched
straight from the county jail to the
store, he said.
After forcing patrons and employees
outside with bomb fumes, a detachment
Of the soldiers wrecked q fruit display
IN front OF the store.
The former doughboys said they had
. the backing Of the public in their at
tempt to close the store, which, city
officials said, had repeatedly failed to
observe proclamations for observance of
the day.

APPEALS FOR NEW
LOUISIANA AVENUE
Head of New Orleans AID Club
Seeks to Have Street Here
Named for His State.

Furthering the movement to have a
new Washington street named for his
State, Wilson s. Calender, president
Of the Advertising Club Of New Orleans
told newspaper men no name in exist
ence fires the imagination like Louis
lana"
"It would be most appropriate" Cal
lender said, "for the beautiful City OF
Washington, noted for the refinement
of its inhabitants, to so honor Louis
lana, the mother of Mississippi Valley
culture. Perhaps no two sections of the
country have so much in common.
Seventeen States now exist where
the Louisiana Territory once fiourished
st. Louis is among the cities founded
by trappers from New orleans. Every
one knows Louisiana is the key State
for the Mississippi Valley in the han
ding Of world commerce. Drainage
water from 80 States passes into the
Gulf below New orleans.
Louisiana represents a different
phase of American culture because 1t
originally was settled by the Spanish
and French. This population nucleus
has had q marked influence in the
establishment of an extraordinarily
high plane OF social and business life. J"
Mr.. Calender declared Louisiana is
the biggest fIr-producing area In North
America. He also directed attention
TO resources of oil, lumber and natural
gas. He added, New Orleans is the
second port in the country In volume
Of business.
The present Louisiana avenue viii

The bank was the second drawn

Paid Propagandists.

In the course of a small-time Com
munist demonstration in this city last
night, when an ardent youth fruitlessly
tried to arouse militant indignation on
the score of the lack of employment,
a young woman went about in the as
semblage distributing tracts calling for
the recognition of the Russian Soviet
government by the United States.
This is merely fresh specific evil
dence of the source of the inspiration
for these demonstrations in this coun-
try in the name of Communism. The
funds for the printing of the tracts
undoubtedly came from that million
and quarter sent here recently in the
care of w. 2. Foster, who is known
to be representative of the Soviets
in America.
If the truth were known, it would
probably appear that the speakers who
are addressing the assemblages in the
cities which have been selected for this
Spring drive" on Capitalism" are in
the pay of the Soviets, or of the Third
Internationale, which is the same thing.
They have no genuine sympathy with
the unemployed. They are merely seek
ing TO arouse rebsllious spirit among
the idle ones, to the end of precipitat-

! trading favors and votes in many cases
have brought about legislation rather
than the merits of the proposals adj
vanced, it has been asserted by at least
one former presiding officer of the
Senate, who attacked the system
vigorously.
Theoretically, no legislation should
pass the Senate, no action should be
taken by that body, which did not con-
Germ itself alone with the merits of the
cause advanced. 1t would be healthy
condition if the merits alone were con-
sidered in senatorial action. But that
is an ideal condition and practical pol
itics is sometimes unfortunately long
way removed from the ideal. Members
of the present Senate coalition them
selves are not entirely innocent in this
regard. They have played practical
politics to gain their ends. Some of
them have let political ends sway them
Some of the supporters of the deben.ure
clause, for example, are by no means
enamored of that clause as sound
economic proposition. But they have
seen in it an opportunity to swat the
administration, or they have felt con-
strained to vote for it in order that they
might have support for other proposals
in the tariff bill. Legislation and poll
tics are decidedly practical affairs as
they are handled in the Senate
The publicity attendant upon the
present effort to effectuate n pool of
senatorial votes to adopt certain amend
ments to the tariff bill affecting lum-
Der, sugar, oil and hides. has effectually
checked the movement. Senators who
make the charges insist they are attack
ing no members of the Senate, but are
merely attacking the lobbyists who have
sought to influence Senators. to make
such trades. These lobbyists should be
attacked. Perhaps this is safer than at
lacking individual Senators and nam
ing them as members of pool"

Prayers for the life of William How
ard Taft are being said throughout the
country, as he lies at the point of death.
Yet there is virtually no hope for his
recovery, for even the prolongation of
his life beyond few days, maybe only
few hours, The end is seemingly
near.
AS he approaches the threshold Judge
Taft maintains the brave spirit that
animated him throughout his active
career. He smiles as he lies waiting
for the summons. He greets his family
and friends, those few who are granted
admittance to the sick chamber, with
that gracious expression of affection
that has always marked his coun-
tenance
1t is wondrous thing to die bravely,
and more wondrous to die happily.
This good man after a long service for
his country, inspired by the highest
motives, possessor of the friendship of
a multitude and the confidence and re-
spect of all his fellow countrymen, is
dying both bravely and happily. He
is smiling through to his rest.

The Vote ON Oil.

Trading votes in the Senate, that
back-scratching policy which has been
responsible for much legislation, has
been attacked on the floor of the
Senate itself more vigorously than ever
before. The attack came about in con-
nection with the consideration of pro-
posal to place in the tariff bill a duty
on importations of oil. 1t was the
straw at which the coalition leaders
snatched to save the coalition from
disintegration and defeat in the fianl
days of the debate and action on the
tariff bill. How successful they were
is largely revealed in the fate of the
oil amendment. which was defeated by
a vote of 80 to 81.
The debate yesterday in the Senate
went to the merits of the proposal to
place duty on oil. The need of pro-
lection of American independent oil
producers against the importations of
oil from South and Central America
was weighed against the possible in
crease of cost to consumers of fuel oil
gasoline and other derivatives from the
crude oil. But. in the end, it was the
attack on 'logrolling," as trading votes
in the Senate or any other legislative
BODY has come to be known, that kept
down the vote in favor of the oil duty
The indignation expressed by Sen
ators in regard to this practice of trad
ing votes is refreshing if bit ingenu-
Gus. Mr.. Writ Franklin, president of
the Independent Oil Association, APP
pearing before the Senate lobby inves-
tigating committee yesterday, told that
Committee when he was questioned
about the proposed pooling of sena-
torial votes in support of a duty on
oil, and duties on sugar lumber and
hides:
81 have understood that is the way
tariff bills are always made"
Mr.. Franklin might have gone further
He might have said that that is the way
much other legislation is written. Many

annual supply bills because the sup
porters of that appropriation have sup
ported other appropriations. Appro-
pristions have been placed in bills be-

A Sane Policy.

In deciding to investigate complaints
against the police and other District
agencies made by the public printer,
Senator Robson has given a statement
of policy that will be received with salts
faction by residents of this city
THE committee will not be used as
sewer through which to pass filth and
mud, blackening mems regulations" he
said. Il have lived here twelve years,
and I think Washington is well above
the average When we are spending
millions to make washington a model
city it does, no good to let the people in
the provinces think it is a town of
hoodlums"

makes it plain, however, that the in
vestigation will not be allowed to de-
teriorate into a public session of a
pseudo grand jury, with every Tom,
Dick and Harry summoned to tell his
tale and to air his views
Mr.. Carter should be allowed to pre-
sent his side of the matter, with his
own witnesses to substantiate his asser-
tons that the police, and other District
officials have not been as keen as he
has been to rid his neighborhood of
nuisances that afiict the personnel of

subordinates should be called to explain

the line. from complainant to court.
there is a weak spot that should be
found. But this is not an indictment of
every individual or agency enforcing
the laws.
The public printer, the police. the
courts and Congress combined will not
be able TO put stop to all gambling.
But rigid enforcement of the laws by
the police and quick action by the
courts will discourage gambling. The
EwU men complained of by Carter in
his volumnious correspondence have
been arrested by the police seven and
thirteen times. They have been fined,
sentenced to jail and in several instances
have forfeited their collateral. In one
of the cases under examination the de-
PENDANT was twice sentenced to Jail,
but records at Police Court fail to
show that he ever served his sentence
The mere fact that the men could be
arrested so many times, yet remain free
TO pursue their illegal activities. is
prina facie evidence that something
IS wrong somewhere and the weak
link should be exposed and either re-
paired or replaced.
This the Senate subcommittee, ac-
cording to Mr.. Robson, will do. But
in the process innocent men need not
be broken at the wheel or dragged
through the muck simply for the ex-
element that such spectacles un-
doubtedly afford.

ing, il. possible, violent reaction against
the Government.
AS was remarked the other day in
these columns, a period of more than
usual unemployment in any country is
the halcyon time for the radical
agitator. He finds more than willing
hearers for his specious arguments, his
fallacious onset against the established
order. The man out of work is apt to
think that there is something decidedly
wrong with society and to listen to sug-
gestions for remedy. The day after
he finds job, however, he is in diff
ferent mood.
1t is folly to say that there is nothing
wrong with the present state of society.
There is much that is wrong with it..
There are many ills, social, physical,
political. But they are not to be cured
by the bolshevik remedy, by Com
munism, by the preposterous, wicked
scheme of government that has been
tried in Russia, with such lamentable
results.
