 BLAZE SUNDAY
Small Two room House
 Purchased Two Days Ago Is Ruined

Just as many people were sit- ting down to their Sunday dinner at o'clock last evening, the fire alarm disturbed the peace and quiet of the community to call the department out for full fledged blaze on E Street between Second and Front, where a small two-raom house was flaming.
 Within ten minutes the firemen had the fire out but the cottage was practically ruined inside.
 The property was purchased just two days ago by Wm. Lynch, guard in the local Federal jail, who intended to fix the house up to live in. With an assistant, he was preparing to repair the roof when a pot of tar which he had left on the stove to heat, boiled over, starting a fast fire.

'' 'Liring Socialism Goal
 For Chile, Says Darila
By HAROLD P. BRAMAN

SANTIAGO, Chile, Aug. 8.-Car-
 los Davila, acting president of
 Chile, wants to establish "a living
 socialistic state.'
 Then he will retire to private
 life, perhaps resume the editorial i work that was his profession be- fore and after the four years which he served in Washington as am-
 bassador of his country.
 Dlsavowing any desire to retain
 power indefinitely, he said that once 'the labor of construction"
 of the new republic has been &C.,
 complished, he would consider his
 personal presence in La Moneda
 palace unnecessary.
 Senor Davila views his work as difficult, but at the same time easier than it might have been lshad he been encountered with party pledges or hampered by hav-
 ing to cater to a personal follow
 ing in politics.
 , T have no political followers nor any party or group behind me which could interfere with my ac- ticn," he explained. So, by his m- dividual effort as head of the state, he hopes to put into effect saims which he described as follows;
 The government is, under the ; paradoxical policy of being truly . revolutionary firmly energetic and fat the same time both tolerant sand a destroyer of extremes. It fol- lows a course between hatred from

nents OF a bill for leasing all prop
critics but the power plants at
Muscle Shoals won an initial vic
tory today when the rule governing
debate on the measure was adopted
BY the house.
Debate on the measure immedi-
ately swung into the issue Of
economy.
Representative Edward 3. Almon
Dem. Ala charged that the
only opposition 70 this bill is the
American Fertilizer Association. be-
cause cheaper fertilizer would be
produced az the shoals II this bill
passes" He predicted a large an
nual saving to the government If

The result Of passage Of the bill
will be government operation, be-
cause the plant can not be leased
in eighteen months as the bill stip-
ulates it must" said Representative
Earl c. Kitchener rep. Mich).
He said il would be necessary TO
expend additional funds on the
plant. and I doubt the wisdom of
starting some new project on the
part Of the government at this
time"
Almon. in sarcastic reference to
action Of the house on the omnibus
economy bill said that while we
we're frittering away five days on
that bill. the government was
spending $1,000 more a minute to
operate. than it was getting in re-
ceipts."
