URGES CARE ON TREATY
London Times Correspondent
Speaks on Arms Pact.

Sir Wilmott Lewis, correspondent for
the London Times, told the Twentieth
Century Club yesterday that in his opin-
ion the American people should give
careful consideration to the draft of the
treaty which is to be presented to the
General Disarmament Conference in

The speaker said that, unsatisfactory

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. % Il.
N.sJ.-Importance of uniform

vention of the National Associa-

Retired officer Says Engineer
Corps Is Ideal for Big Duty
Under Hearst Relief Plan

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 2;

administering the $4,000, 900, ,00(
prosperity loan proposed by viii
liam Randolph Hearst has beer
advanced by Major YOUR M
Marks, U. S. A.. retired, Sar
Francisco investment banker.
Use Of the Army Engineer Corps
to direct a widespread program
Of public construction was the
plan urged by Major Marks. He
said:
"The General Staff Of the
United States Army could be
ordered to make preparations
to register, cIOthe. subSist and
house at least 100000 men in
labor units within 80 days and
progressively thereafter UP to
l,OOO, 900 within 80 days, If )S-
sible.
Machinery Ready
"The use Of the Army-par-
ticularly the commissioned per-
sonneI-is advocated because
machinery for handling the
large task will be Immediately
available and can be set in
motion before cold weather.
Further than the saving OF
time, this staff is already in
the employ of the Government
and no funds for salaries be-
yOnd those now paid need be
used"
The employment of 100000
men in this manner would re
suit in the employment Of mil
lions more in supplying tools,
materials, and clothing for the
workers, Major Marks pointed
out. He made it clear the
workers are in no sense to be re-
garded as any part of Che Army
Financed BY Loan
The operations could be fl
l1anced by the prosperity loan,
which would be met by bond
issues and ultimately paid by
sales taxes, Major Marks sug'
geSted.

Monday evening about Is Sank

dinner at the Palmer House ar
ranged by Postmaster w. M. Park
er. The food was of the usual high

telry. Mr.. Parker very cleverly
presided as POSTMASTER. The fol-
lowing were called upon for short

Mayor Sigurd Holme, City Clerk ].
F. Cooper, DR.. w. Johnson, presi-

L. L. Lovik, commander Robert
Swift Post, American Legion; DIR.
]. A. Dubois, Of this city, and Rev.
John Kromolicki, of st. Rose.
The congressman from this dis
trict also spoke. Taxation" was
his subject. One of the high lights
of his talk, it is understood, was an
urgent demand for the lowering of
taxes for the support Of the public
schools. He called attention that
he completed his public school edu-
cation at the Eighth Grade, as an
example, possibly, that more educa-
ton was not necessary. From the
remarks one heard on the street
the next day the attack on the Pub
lie Schools was not particularly
well received.

periOr Cruise In 1882

nall had arranged delightful pro-
gram, the highlight Of which was a
scenic boat ride Of II miles on
Rainy Lake where lunch was to be
served on the Canadian side Sat
urday noon.
It rained most Of the time Fri
day and all day Saturday. This in
terfered somewhat with the pro-
gram but over so Of the visitors in

rain. 1t took more than a mere
rain storm to damper the ardor of
the scribes and their ladies.

Week to Determine Body's
First Activities

Minneapolis, Aug. Twenty
seven Twin City business, agricul-
tural and financial leaders were
announced today as members Of q
committee to cooperate with var.
ious agencies of the northwest in
promotion Of better agricultural
conditions.
A. r. Rogers, chairman of the
Minneapolis Industrial Committee

committee on agricultural and
livestock problems was the name
selected for the group.
Mr.. Rogers said today it was
necessary for him to be away from
the city on business for a few
days, but that a meeting Of the
committee would be called next
week to determine what its first
activities would be. He said that
until meeting of the group had
been conducted he would have no
statement to make, except that it
was the purpose Of the committee
OF cooperate with all other groups
in the northwest which are striv-
ing to solve agricultural problems
and endeavoring to improve con-
ditions.
The committee is an outgrowth
of a meeting Monday in Mime
apolis which was attended by rep
resentatives of state governments,
railroads, banks and bus
industrial organizations, where the
effects of drouth and the grass
hopper infestation was explained
and state authorities told of steps
being taken to meet the situation
in their various localities.
The suggestion was made by a
number of speakers that the Twin
Cities should have a permanent
committee which would aid in sit
uations arising that needed wide
spread cooperative efforts,

Jack Wallace Schramm Stricken
Tuesday of Last Week-Condi-
ton Much Improved

Jack Wallace Schramm only son
of Mr.. and Mrs. B. ]. (Maza Wal
lace) Schramm, is confined to the
Fairview hospital, Minneapolis,
fighting an attack Of spinal menin-
gifts.
Tuesday of last week Jack made
his regular trip to the Minneapo-
lis Y. M. C.. A., and enjoyed his
usual swim and shower. His faith
er met him about 500 o'clock and
took him home. Shortly after ar
irving there he complained of feel
ing tired. He was restless during
the night and was given the usual
home treatment for youngsters. He
did not improve Wednesday and
late in the afternoon physician
was summoned. After an examina-
ton the doctor stated there were
symptoms Of meningitis but that
they would wait until morning for
developments. He was taken to
Fairview hospital Thursday morn
ing and the best meningitis spec
ialist in the city was called into
consultation.
Jack was a very sick lad for
several days but three injections of
serum and marvellous care has
turned him back on what is be.
lieved to be the, high road to re-
covery. Latest reports received by
his grandparents in this city were
that his temperature is at normal
that he rests fairly well and is
demanding food. Under the most
favorable conditions he will be in
the hospital two or three weeks
more. His is the only case Of men

An apparently optimistic view Of
the situation was taken by Mr.,

Gala Day for Minnesota
Boys and Girls, Sept. 5
Opening Day Minnesota State Fair
of Special Interest to Younger
Generation

Saturday, September 5, will be
gala day for Minnesota boys and
girls. 1t will be the big opening
day of the Minnesota State Fair
and Northwest Livestock Show, to
continue to Sept. IL, and it is Of
special interest to the younger gem
Grafton because it has been dedi-
Gated to them.
Children's Day will be everything
that the designation suggests, and
the youngsters will be given every
opportunity to take possession of
the grounds. The courtesy of the
State Fair management, Of course,
will begin at the outside gates,
where children Is years Of age or
under will be admitted free.
Everywhere on the big EXPOSE
ton grounds there will be evidence
Of concession to the youthful hon.
ored guests. Following the an
nouncement Of cut prices for the
rides, the shows and other attrac-
tions under direct supervision Of
the management, ice cream, lem
onade and other refreshment men
have fallen in line with the spirit
Of hospitality by offering reductions
to boys and girls.
Making children happy is q big
part of the business of the Johnny
]. Jones Exposition, and that big
organization also wired Raymond
A. Lee, Fair secretary, that it would
contribute its part to a full day
Of entertainment for the boys and
girls with a special price Of cents
for its shows and rides.
Determined not to stop half way,
the Fair board then announced a
slash in grandstand prices for
children, and for 10 cents they win
have a closeup view Of the auto
mobile races, the performance Of
the autogiro or windmill type of
airplane. They win laugh with and
at Billy Lorette, world-famous
clown, and marvel at the dancing
horses, the trained dogs and other
attractions before the grandstand.

Uses Safety Razor
Blade to Operate
South Dakota Surgeon Saves Life
Z of Indian Guide-Alcohol for
Anesthetic

Sioux Falls, s. D., Aug. 5-Using
alcohol as an anesthetic, a Sioux
Falls surgeon on fishing trip in
the Canadian wilds, performed a
successful appendicitis operation
with razor blade.
DR.. o. Charles Erickson is the
surgeon. His patient was an In
dian guide.
He was with party camping
near Lake La Croix, when he was
summoned by the guides sister. The
nearest hospital was IT'S miles dis
tant. Since the appendix was rup-
tured, an immediate operation was
necessary. The guide, who was in
great pain, was given generous
doses of alcohol and with typical In
dian stoicism, endured the opera
ton without any great display of
suffering, according to DR.. Erick-
son.
