LOAD OF LIQUOR is
CONSUMED BY FLAMES

A truck carrying 900 gallons of
alcohol was wrecked on the highway
near Little Falls recently. Federal
agents were soon at the scene and
burned the alcohol, which was esti-
mated to be worth nearly $1,000 at
retail prices. The agents had been
waiting for the truck several days
but were not able to arrest the run
ners who were picked up by another
car soon after the truck was wrecked.

OWNING ROD ID
 SEEK F0R LOST GOLD

With firm faith in the owner of divining rod as a key to hidden gold, A. H. Baumgartner plans to hunt for cache of nuggets said to weigh 286 pounds and which legend has it, is buried somewhere in the eastern part of Wyoming, according to the Denver Mining Record.
 About days ride from Dead wood," says the legend the gold was buried when a band of h. dians, led by Crazy Horse, return ing from the Custer massacre. at tackled a group of miners.
 The miners realized it was i'm possible to escape with the trea- sure so they hid it where the wa ter ran in four directions" the story goes
 The miners abandoned their horses and made their way on foot to Deadwood, returning by way of wagon train to a railroad point to go to New York. They planned to come back for the gold, but never did, rumor has it.
 Baumgartner, on his last hunt for the treasure, located depres- sion in the earth by means of his divining rod, but there was no buckskin sack of nuggets.
 By the vibrations of his divin- ing rod, Baumgartner claims he can detect the presence of oil, water or certain minerals.

Beauty and Utility

The conflict between beauty and utility in Washington is

government of the National Capital

matey associated with its development get together and
work program which will harmonic the desire of the
nation that this be city beautiful with the necessity that it
also be practical place in which half million persons may
live their daily lives
is true that Washington conceived and has been de-
veloped as a site for the national administration.
But it inevitable that people would have to live here
While they too want the city to be worthy artscay and
esthecay of the country which it typfies they want and
deserve have place in which to live comfortably and
happily.
There differences between the schools Of thought
which cannot be reconciled
Washington residence city must make concessions to
Washington National Capital But it should not be all
one-sided.
The Nation should understand that may have to sacrifice
of the grander heights of beauty to the necessities
of actual living. .
Two instances have developed recently in which the diff
ferent viewpoints stand clearly One is the demand
Of the Fine Arts Commission that parking Of automobiles
in parks be abolished The other the nsstence of the same
commission that giant pillars be erected part of the
Arlington Memorial Bridge
The commission made suggestion to where ANTONIO

THE Navy League has
l. not always been entirely
fair in its zeal for the main
tenance of an adequate
Navy; and the public awaited
with an open mind the reply
of the Administration to the
serious charge recently made
against it. When the Presi-
dent, with a judicial ges-
ture, called upon the League
for an apology which he has
not received, and appointed
a commission to investigate
the Leagues charges it was
observed that the commits
sion was a handpicked jury
chosen arbitrarily by the
accused. This left a bad i'm
preston.
The report was precisely
what was to have been ex-
pected from the source. But
the analysis of this report by
the Navy League is utterly
devastating. 1t shows mis-
representations due to SLOW
emily methods, and a cum
ming Juggling of facts and
quotations from the Leagues
indictment more suggestive
of the manner of a lawyer
with a bad case than of a
judicial report. Even Ad-
ministration organs have
been shocked by the ease
with which the Administra-
tons house of cards has
been knocked down.
The Administration has
made no adequate defense,
no satisfactory explanation,
and the character of its re-
ply to the charges makes
more imperative than ever
thorough Congressional in
vestigation into what the
Administration is doing to
the Navy. It is quite possible
as the New York Herald Tri-
bune suggests, that Mr.. Hoo
yer does not understand
the full responsibility of a
fleet" 1t may be, too. that
the Administration concen-
tration on the relief of
Europe does not leave suffl-
Gent time for consideration
of Americas vital needs.

women? I mean mostly the
girls who go out to do house
work.
The papers are always full of
talk about how many hours
men work. Did you ever stop
to think how many hours
women-cooks and second
maids and nurses and general
workerS-have to work, Mr..
Editor?
Centrally they have to be on
duty from Is to 20 hours a day.
Where there is much entertain
ing, or where little children
have TO be taken care of. house
maids often work 20 hours a
day, with no extra pay for
extra work. Besides, they have
no free lunch or supper hour
like factory workers have.
The Hardest Job 49,.
Homework is the hardest
worl: on a woman, in every
way, and American house
workers get very small pay for
it. In some homes, maids get
as lo7 as IS, 10 and SIS a
month, while there are many
who work for room and board.
And besides this they have to
endure any sort of treatment.
There are many women who
are kind to their maids and
who give them consideration
and comfort. But there, are
many who treat them like
slaves, and expect them to sleep
in quarters that aren't really
fit for a dog.
It seems to me a. strange
thing that this great, strong
country should be trying so
hard to help the lot of men
and never give a thought to
the woman workers.
Won't it look funny to see
big, strong men quitting work
six hours, and going home to
be waited on by wives and
maids who must work 20?

Greater Demand
for Charity

4Vk OAAOASU
Thus far. through the ut
most exertions, more money
for the purposes of charity
is being raised this year than
last, but there is an infinite
ly greater demand for char
ity this year than last. For
mer Governor Smith throws
a vivid light upon conditions
in this statement:
"The desperate need Of
the unemployed becomes
more apparent as the block
to-block canvass continues.
Our volunteer workers are
discovering thousands of in
dividuals who, instead of be-
ing able to give, are with
out means of support and
have families dependent upon
them for the necessities OF
life."
That great numbers Of
families in distress are con-
cealing their condition be-
cause of pride all of Us know
from personal knowledge.
That the amount of money
being raised from individu-
ais will not be sufficient to
prevent suffering is now APP
parent. For, vast as the
amount is, 70 per cent will
be required to meet the nor
NAL demands on charity or
CARNATIONS.
Whatever amount finally
is subscribed, but 80 per cent
of this will represent the re-
Spouse to the abnormal prob
lem of unemployment. And
there are 100000 breadwin-
ners out of work, and the
number will be increased by
the progress of the winter.
These, with their dependents,
will easily represent 10000,
600 men, women and chill
dren.

pected that he will 60 into

Hope It Will Be a
Human Document

In his first inaugural
address Woodrow Wilson,
speaking for his day, antici-
pated even more the problem
of our own when he said:
Nor have we studied and
perfected the means by
which government may be
put at the service Of human
ity. This is no sentimental
duty. The firm basis Of
government is justice, not
pity. These are matters Of
justice. There can be no
equality of opportunity, the
first essential of justice in
the body polite, if men,
women and children be not
shielded in their lives in
their very vitality, from the
consequences of great indus
trial and social processes
which they cannot alter, con-
troll or singly cope with. So
ciety must see to it that it
does not crush or weaken or
damage its own constituent
parts"
