suit was prevented, it was said, by a
serious check to the tanks at Flies
quieres. I remained at Cavalry head
quarters most of the afternoon, hoping
to see something of how they handled
this arm, in which I had spent many
happy years in our own service. It
was reported later that bridge over
the Scheldt Canal at MaSnieres was
blown up, so the cavalry was not sent
forward.
For some reason or other the French
were not called into action, but pre-
sumably it was because the British cav
airy, which was to precede them, could
not go forward as planned. The Often
sive continued for two or three days
longer with varying success. It was,
however, a decided victory, and while
not as great as the British expected, It
gave encouragement to the allies on the
western front and no doubt helped to
Offset temporarily the depressing effect
of the serious defeat recently sustained
by the Italian Army.
Tomorrow: Col House arrives for the
allied conference and a new hopeful
ness sets in.

LEAVE TO VETERANS
. DENIED BY M'CARL
Quotes Presidents Order in
Reply to Questions by
]. L. CIerc. >

Despite an executive order of Presi
dent Hoover concerning medical leave
for disabled veterans, Controller Gen.
eral McCarl has ruled that there ap-
pears to be no law giving to per diem
employees who are veterans any leave
rights not granted to per diem EN-.
ployes who are not veterans"
The question was raised by John L
Clerc, chairman of the organization
committee of the United Veterans OF
American Wars. whose address is given
controller general for information as
to the charging Of leave to per diem
employees of the Federal service for
time taken to report to the United
States Veterans Bureau for various
reasons.
Quotes Presidents Order.
In his answer Mr.. McCarl quoted the
Presidents executive order of last July
IT. as follows
with respect to medical treatment
of disabled veterans who are employed
in the executive civil service of the
United States, it is hereby ordered that.
upon the presentation of an official
statement from duly constituted medi-
cal authority that medical treatment is
required, sIch annual or sick leave as
may be permitted by law and such leave
without pay as may be necessary, shall
be granted by the proper supervisory
officer to a disabled veteran, in order
that the veteran may receive such
treatment, all without penalty in his
efficiency rating.
THE granting of such leave is con-
tingent upon the veterans giving prior
notice of definite days and hours of
absence required for medical treatment
in order that arrangements may be
made for carrying on the work during
his absence"
Leave Not Provided.
at will be noted" continued Mr.
McCarl, that the executive order
quoted relates only to the time neces-
sary to receive required medical treat
ment and that it does not provide for
any annual or sick leave not otherwise
authorized by law, and there appears to
be no law giving to per diem employees.

granted to per diem employees who are
not veterans"

pared to engage successfully an adver-
sary who was so equipped.
1t was estimated that our require
ments, calculated from our own data
and that of our allies, would be some
$4,000 motor vehicles, with an unlimited
reserve of spare parts. Our priority
schedules contemplated an increasing
allowance of motor vehicles to cores
pond to the growth of our forces, but
despite our most urgent appeals and the
resulting promises from Washington we
had constantly to borrow large numbers
OF trucks from the French.
In anticipation of a full equipment
of motor vehicles for our Armies, a
skeleton organization was created, with
extensive depotS, repair shops and the

vigorously attacked socialistic tend
encies. He said there were to be no
more paciflst campaigns, no more Ger
man intrigues, and neither treason nor
half treason. He tried to get in COM
munication with Kerensky with a view
OF mobilizing what remained of dis
ciplined forces in Southern Russia, and
although his efforts were useless they
demonstrated his aggreSsiveneSs.
AS to land transportation, our efforts
turned toward the greater use of motor
transport, and about this time the
Motor Transport Corps was created.
Need Of Motor Transport.
The use of motor transport had be-

in the supply of troops but in trans

NetU Uses Found
 for Natural Gas
 in Manufacturing g

BARTLESVILE, Okla. Aug. B. New uses for natural gas, flowing from the earth at the rate of trillions of cubic feet annually, are being sought by the experiment. station of the United States Bur eau of Mines here.
 Among the products already be- ing derived from natural gas, it. self a by-product of crude oil pro- duction, are perfumes, moth balls motor fuels, explosives, alcohols fdyes, insecticides, anesthetics, acct ylene and artificial rubber.
 Once allowed to blow free, today the gas not only brings the oil to the surface, but also is useful in producing heat, power and light. It yields gasoline under treatment
 The experiment station is con- cert1ed particularly with the pyroly- sis of natural gas, or it's decomp- osition into carbon and hydrogen Both have commercial uses, while other by-products of the process can be utilized profitably,

Let Liquor Be Taxed.
(New York d-Telegram)


 The experience of Canadian Provinces with State owned liquor dispensaries-which replaced Prohinl- tion-is usually cited in arguments over the liquor problem in this country.
 Drys would have us believe that the system IS a failure that it has increased drunkenness and crime and corrupted government. Vets paint diff ferent picture in urging similar plan for this country
 Examination of official figures on consumption for last year is therefore interesting and particularly so at this time when legazaton of four per cent. beer in this country is being advocated to produce revenue stimulate business and bring the hquor traffic under control.
 Gross sales of louor in Canada were $13OO00,0oo in 1930 The various governments got SloOoooooo of this in the form of taxes leaving the per capita liquor bill at less than $3 or the equivalent or a bottle of Scotch And this does not take into account the consumption by some five or SIX million Americans who visited the country as tourists
 The Dominion Government last year got $oo'- 900 900 as it's share of taxation about twelve per cent. of it's revenues. It imposes tax o1 S9 a gallon spirits, plus four per cent sales tax and then the Provincial governments step in charge up the cost of operation and take handsome profit for their treasuries.
 The liquor habits of the people are changing Canadians drinking only about third as much spirits as in 1914 little less beer and five times as much wine Per capita consumption of all peV- erages is half gallon less, however.
 Thus Canada has controlled liquor tra1lic ih- stead of the bootlegging and racketeering we have here Canadians get good liquor instead of the poison supplied Americans. They are drinking less Revenues which here go into the pockets or bootleggers in Canada find their way into the public treasuries. If get twelve per cent of our revenues from liquor taxes the Federal Government alone would collect around half a billion year and other millions would go to the States It is essential for American public officers to make certain that an emergency concession should not be construed entering wedge for permanent debt cancellation Seattle Post -InteigencerJ MT Coolidge says everyone should take vaca- tion But all of us are not notorious spendthrlfts like Cal- Seattle Times)

B. KIRK HAD LOTSOF FUN ON
 HIS VACATION
Baseball Nights Is as We'll Played as in Day
 Time

Had a fine time; went to Se- attle for a vacation-no business and enjoyed every moment of a stay of six weeks" declared W. B. Kirk, of the Butler Mauro phar- macy company.
 MT. Kirk was accompanied by Mrs. Kirk. They returned to Ju- neau on the steamship Princess Louise.
 T had lots of fun at the Elks convention which brought together members of the order from all parts of the nation" continued Mir. Kirk. T also got keen en- ioyment in attending ba SC b ] games between teams of the Pa cific Coast League.
 Saw All Games
 T saw all games played in Se- attle while I was there. The con tests, except those on Sundays, are staged by electric light at night. Sundays there are double headers and these are always daylight events.
 Night baseball is proving the salvation of the Pacific Goa s League as well as of every other minor leage. While the attend ance at the former day games was small, attendance at the present night games is usually large.
 "The playing at night games IS just as good as the playing at the day games Sundays.
 No Lost Balls
 Before attending any mig t games, I had heard criticism to the effect that sometimes high fly balls would be lost in the dark ness above the range of the electric lights. I witnessed no such instance of lost ball, although I saw many high flies. At one game a batter knocked a ball so high that he almost reached second base before the sphere came down into the shortstop's hands in short left field. The ball was in sight all the time.
 Business in the States? It didn't interest me was on vacation.

RESOURCES AND REPRESENTATION

The suggestion made at Douglas recently by Frank Foster, who lately has moved from from the Third to the First Division, that there is need of a change in divisional rep resentation because the First and Third Divisions have more population and pay
 more taxes than do the Second and Fourth Divisions sounds much like the agitation that has been going on in Juneau since the very early days of the Territory. Long ago it was argued by Juneau politicians that because most of the timber sales were made in the First Division most of the money realized from such sales should be expended in the First Division, to the exclusion Of those Divisions not possessing saleabe tim Der And now MT Foster advances the argument, by inference at least that reve- nues from the fisheries similarly belong to the Divisions possessing those fisheries.
 The Times realizes that it would be very helpful to the Third Divsion which MT Foster says contributes than half of the Territorial taxes, if it could retain all of that money for expenditure within the Division. But it is not fair to claim that the fisheries which produce the bulk of the tax revenue, belong more to this Di- vision than to the Fourth or Second Division, where there are no fisheries And it is not fair to claim that the National Forests are the property of any particular locality just because they happen to be where they are. They are natural resources which belong to the whole Territory for the benefit of the whole Territory insofar as the Federal Gov ernment will permit them to benefit under it's bureaucratic system of control.
 There may come time when there will be sufficient population in the First and Third Divisions to justify claim for State hood but there is good reason to believe that until that time arrives, Territorial reva- nues will continue to be divided with reason able equality among the four Divisions and that the Divisions will continue to have equal voice in legislative deliberations.- Anchorage Times)
 The Anchorage paper must have taken fooli powders. In the first place there is absolutely between MT. Fosters suggestion of of the Legislature according population and the ownership Of First Divisi timber Then the contention that the timber sources of the First Division and of right ouG Q be equally the property of the Second Divis s simply absurd
 The timber resources the National Fore Throughout the United States 1re recognized statute to be the property of the county or cou ties in which they are located Only a technical made it possible for the Territorial Legislature rob the First Division of the proceeds of Tongass National Forest, A decision that Alas must be considered as one county because it never been divided into counties like all otl American Territories were divided gave the Leg ature a technically legal right to disregard
