8OOEx-Mariners
AtSnugH HarbOr
Win Vote

NEW YORK.-Permission to
vote, which had been denied them
for the last 80 years, has been
granted to the 800 retired
mariners living at Sailors Snug
Harbor, an endowed home for sea-
men, on the north shore of Staten
Island. The ruling re-enfranchis'
ing the seamen was announced by
S. Howard Cohen, president OF
the board of elections.
The "Snugs" were disfranchised
in 1902 on the ground that the
home was a charitable institution.
Capt. George A. McDermott,
one of the old sailors at the home,
convinced the board Of elections
that the home was we'll endowed,
self-supporting and not dependent
upon city, State or Federal aid.
The Appellate Division Of the
Supreme Court conceded the JUS
tice of the argument and all in
mates having the required resi-
dence qualifications will be per-
mitted to vote in the coming Presi-
dental elections.

ON DEBT.
URGED IN PARIS

PARIS, Sept. 24.-France should
spar for time with the view of
negotiating war debts cancella'
ton after the American elections,
Deputy Raymond susset, one OF
the young French Liberal leaders
declared today. He said:
"The debts discussion should
not be immediate. The pres
identiaI election period in the
United States is hardly specially
favorable to conversations of
this kind.
I'VE would not find on the
other side of the Atlantic the
necessary state of mind or calm.
For want OF something better,
let us gain time and ask
our allies to dispense ith the
December IS payment, which
it is impossible for us to meet
in the state Of our treasury.

and, I hope, successfully for
the cancellation Of war debts.
Only then could we renOunce

alaska SALMON
INDUSTRY FINE

The fact that the salmon pack
in Alaska this season will exceed
100000 cases, which is about the
five-year average, shows the sue
cess of the conservation program
of the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries
which is in full charge Of salmon
conservation around the North
western peninsula. according to
Henry O'Malley, bureau commits
sioner.
Returning this week from a
long stay in Alaska, he said the
showing is impressive in view Of
the fact that fewer canneries are
operating and less fishing gear
was in use. If the cannerieS had
been operating as last year, the
pack would have been 100000
cases, he added.
Because Of the good supply Of
canned salmon, and it's present
low price, it is even more an ideal
family food, says Mr.. O'Malley
urging greater use of salmon on
the table, particularly in view of
its high nutritive elements.

FARMERS TITS
PARLEY TOPIC

CLEVELAND, UN.SO.-Ameri-
can farmers-estimated 100000
strong-are to descend on Cleve-
land November 20 to meet in
open forum session for one week
and attempt to draw up a work
able solution for the agricultural
ills of the nation.
Delegates are expected to come
to the sessions from every agri-
cultural community of the ma
ton. Arrangements are being
made to have every delegate rep
resent 25 farmers and more than
10000 voting delegates will be
among the 100000 crusading
farmers, Rodgers predicted.
In addition, governors of every
State in the union or their deSig-
mated representatives and every
member of Congress will be in
Vited to attend. Rodgers init
mated strongly that the tempo
rary chairman of the convention
would be a prominent national
political figure, but would not
name him.
Three governors and two Sena-
tors are among the list of pre-
announced speakers. They will
be Governors William Murray, of
Oklahoma, Phillip LaFollette of
Wisconsin and George White of
Ohio and Senators Smith w.
Brookhart Of Iowa and George
Norris of Nebraska. The Presi.
dent-elect of the United States
also will be asked to deliver an

NEW HOME PLAN
IS DEVELOPED

Homestead" an unusually in.
teresting small home design fea-
turing three levels, initiates an
extraordinary series Of homes by
Sears Roebuck, to be called the
home Of the week."
These homes" says T. T.
HawkswOrth, general manager,
Southeastern district, cOnstruc.
tiOn DIVISION" constitute an
emphatic answer to the wide
demand that home values be
brought up to a par with values
in other manufactured COM
mOdities. For instance, we
have been told repeatedly that
an automobile gives the buyer
his biggest dollars worth,
possibly three to four times
the value offered 20 years ago,
while home costs have re-
manned almost stationary. This
is as true as any broad general
statement can be, not because
of exOrbitant profits in home
building, but because of the
Out-mOded methods of building
that have persisted too far into
the machine age.
"It is logical that this chal.
lenge should be met by the
Sears Roebuck organization,
since it is the worlds largest
home builders with their own
huge manufacturing plants,
warehouses, tremendous buying
power and backed by resources
of 5000, 100000 and unlimited
funds for financing homes.
appreciation Of these facts
by the public is seen in the
fact that dollar volume in 1881
was more than twice the aver.
age from 1925 to 1880 and 1882
operations are even with 1881"

Again we started on Our journey After
going some distance, again our car stopped,
and our Crusaders told us that in the next
place, only three could enter, and that Mr..
Clark's two comrades and myself would
make the try at this place. |, however, re-
queSted my companion to go with them SO
they journeyed on, and when they came
back, reported the man who opened the
door said, Nothing doing. No sales being
made any more" and refused them any
kind of admittance. This seemed to be
rather hard luck
At this point, | was invited to ride in the
car with one of Mr.. Clark's companions
and the scout, George.
We drove, I should say, for ten minutes,
through various streets of the town. Final
ly, we came into street where there was
only one building lighted. AS we ap-
preached this greasy-looking place, there
was a group of fellows standing out in
front, and | was informed that we could
not get into this place, but we could call
the proprietor and he would bring out
bottle. Our car stopped, and whether the
three honks of the horn had any signi6-
canoe or not, do not know but at the
sound of the three honks, one of the fell
lows left the group and walked over and,
looking past the Crusader and myself, said,

GANGWAY FOR
DR." HUSTON
w. E. PussyfooD JOHNSON

Get out of the road, for here comes C1au-
dus H. Huston, formerly chief house cat
for the national Republican committee.
Hear ye Hear ye! Draw near and listen
to what Claudius proposes as a trial bal
loon. The balloon has already gone up, but
it went so far that it got lost trying to find
its way back.
Bro. Huston claims to have been former
ly an ardent dry, but nobody ever heard of
that. But still, some people have never
heard of a toothbrush, so that doesn't mat
ter.
In addition 10 proposing the usual return
of beer, Bro. Huston solemnly urges that
we turn the whole whisky traffic over to
the doctors, giving them unlimited power
to write prescriptions for any amount from
jigger to barrel. If the states wish to
enact special laws governing doctors pre-
scriplions,' let them go to it. But the doc
tors are to have the right of way, serving
as bartenders for the thirsty.
In ancient Scotland, there we're two rem
edies for all the ills of man or beast whs-
ky for men and tar for sheep
Under the Huston program, whisky
might be the specific for anything from
pyorrhea clear down to ingrowing toenails
A horned toad might be useful for warts,
but whisky would be preferable.
Because of this deiverance, Or" Hus-
ton has got his picture in the papers and
some folks have read what he said

poses baseball bats as remedy for the
cockroach evil and some dentist gets out
patent for rubber teeth.

CURB SERVICE


CURB SERVICE
Then, going back to the group, a con-
verSation was held and the other car, hav-
ing passed by and gone up the street little
ways and stopped our prospective bootleg
ger came back and wanted to know if that
was our other car up the street. Being in
formed that it was, he disappeared around
the building, and came back with bottle
carefully tucked away under his coat,
handed it to George, and my crusading
friend paid $I.5o for it.
Then we passed on to another place,
where we couldn't get in, and after stop
ping quite a little ways from it, George
came back with bottle. | do not know
whether it was the same bottle that he
bought at the other place or not, but the
Crusader gave him another $I.5o for it, at
any rate.
Time was rapidly passing, and we wanted
to see some of the places where there were
great crowds of young people going to the
devil through these seventeen speakeasies
at Chestnut Hill
Again we journeyed on and on. Chest
nut Hill seemed to be quite extensive terri
tory, and | thought we were in German
town, but my Crusader assured me we were
in Chestnut Hill. We then passed the First
M. E. church of Germantown, where my
friend, DR.. J. S. Laid Thomas, is pastor.
| said, "Now know | am in Germantown"
but they insisted we were not, but since I
had been all through the building a little
while before and was familiar with the
high school across the way, | knew we
were out of Chestnut Hill
Not long after this whether in German
town or Chestnut Hill, know not, but
again we drove up rather dark street and
stopped. There was no light to be seen any
where, except in private dwelling, and it
looked to me from the outside to be of a
different type than we had been going into.
Were we to be shown the real thing at last?
soon learned that this house wasn't the
place at all, but off to the other side of the
street on a lot stood a house, which was
absolutely dark. Here, our pilot George
said we should wait until he went and got
permission to take the crowd in. He went
up to the door of this dark building and
raped He preferred rapping, rather than

In little while, he said it was all right,
and there was light appeared in the front

We entered very dingy and unattrac-

broad, sturdy fellow dressed in working
mems clothes, with very heavy head of
bushy hair, and looked very unhappy After
we had all gone into the room, someone, l
don't know who, said, "Well, how about
the drinks?' We didn't hear him say it,
but we were told afterwards that this fell
low had gone to George and pointing to
myself and companion, said, "Those are
couple of dicks Nothing doing but be-

all right, and that there would be no trou-
