TWO MILLIONS
TOLL TAKEN IN
CHICAGO FIRE
Blaze One of Worst in rs
Years in Windy City;
Two Blocks Swept.

By United Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-Nearly half
of Chicagos f1re-f1ghting forces
poured tons of water today on the
fiery embers of conflagration that
swept two square blocks and did
damage estimated at nearly ST.
100000.
Fifteen persons were injured, none
seriously, in the fire which blazed in
the heart of packing house dis
trict and was one of the worst Chi
cago had seen in twenty-five years.
Flames starting in large grain
elevator, presumably as a result of
dust explosion rushed forward on
block long front. The huge pack
ing plant of the Omaha Packing
Company wasNwiped out. In the
pens; 300 hogs, so cattle and 200
sheep persisted, and tons of packed
meat were destroyed.
Licks Across River
The fire jumped to coal yard
and licked across the Chicago river
to consume a yacht and fishing
smack anchored there. Warehouses
and office buildings were destroyed.
Heat from the fire was so intense
firemen were forced to work at long
distance, A block to windward of
the blaze the heat was terrific and
spectators were driven back.
Thirty thousand people watched
the conflagration, attracted by a
mighty tower of flame and smoke
that was visible from the Loop,
many blocks distant.
Traffic Is Halted
Traffic about the stricken area
was halted. Small storekeepers in
the area handed out their wares to
passersby, convinced their shops
could not be saved from the rush of
flames.
Search of the district for possible
victims was to be made as soon as
flames died down in the ruins.
Many narrow escapes from death
were reported, but, so far as police
could determine, none was missing.

BONUS ARMY'S
EVACUATION IS
HELDUP AGAIN
JohnstoWn Mayor Seeks to
? Get Trains and Gasoline
for Autos.
BY JOSEPH S. WASNEY
United Press staff Correspondent

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa. Aug. 5.-Final
mastering out of $500 remaining
members of the B. E. F. was halted
temporarily today, due to lack of
rail transportation and shortage of
fuel for automobiles.
Fewer than 100 men have left the
camp in the last twelve hours.
Mayor Eddie McCloskey, however,
believes that he has solved the gas
cline problem. He drew 500 from
the $1,000 B. E. F. treasury and an
nounced that he would give each
member of the automobile caravan
a dollar bill for gasoline.
Meanwhile, difficulties with the
Pennsylvania railroad over securing
a special train eastward held up an
exodus of about 100 persons. Nc
CloSkey, acting as evacuation dicta-
tor, was endeavoring to get Gen
eral w. w. Atterbury, chairman of
the railroad board of directors, to
authorize special trains.
Tobacco and Food Arrive
Fifty dollars worth of tobacco
arrived from the B. E. F. treas
urer and this, with a supply of food
made available at noon, raised the
spirits of the men. 1t was the first
meal served in tWenty-four hours.
Robert Ellison, in charge of the
army, announced that William
Waite of Kalamazoo, Mich, had
been removed as camp commander
and that Bill Norman, leader of the
Hell Kitchen" outfit of New York
City. had replaced him.
The Pennsylvania American LIE
gion marched into Johnstown sew
eral thousand strong, planning to
celebrate Legion day. Bands were
playing and colors flying, but all
this had nothing to do with the
bonuseers, who had no breakfast
and were doleful lot.
BOotlegger Is Sought
The mayor Thursday night Or
dered Vernon Butler. Detroit, to
leave town for being an alleged
"chiseler.'' Also, the red-haired
executive ordered officers to find a
bootlegger who had been supplying
the bonuseers with liquor.
The mayor and bonus leaders
were confident there would be no
trouble from alleged Communist
activities.

KEY TO PEACE
IN s. AMERICA
HELD BY CHILE
Transfer of Arid Strip of
Land Could Halt War of
Bolivia and Paraguay.
WANTS OUTLET TO SEA
Section Has Value Only in
Nitrate Fields, Now of
Little Worth.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
Scripps- Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Trans-
fer by Chile to Bolivia of now al
most worthless desert pathway
seventy-five miles long and a few
miles wide, giving Bolivia an outlet
to the Pacific, Would, it is believed.
permanently block the threatened
war between Bolivia and Paraguay.
Feverish efforts are under way
here to form q united Pan Ameri-
can front against a dangerous war
in the South American continent,
but behind the scenes it was adj
mitted that if the Pan-American
League of Nations is to prevent a
clash now, or later, it will have to
remove the causes.
1t is not really for possession of
the steaming jungle of the Gran
Chaco, lying just under the tropic
of Capricorn. that Bolivia and
Paraguay have modified their
armies. Bolivia is after an outlet
to the sea. and even if she won it
via the Paraguay, the Parana, and
La Plata rivers, it would be an out
let in name only.
Source of DiscOrd
1t would not be permanent
solution. On the contrary, it would
be, in itself, permanent source of
discord between Bolivia and the
countries astride those streams.
On the other side, however, west
of Bolivia, the landlocked, lies
Chile, which is nearly all sea coast.
In the extreme north, bordering on
Peru, are the provinces of Tacna
and africa.
There, the frontier of Bolivia is
within seventy-five miles of the sea.
From La Paz to africa there already
is a railway across territory which
Chile took from Peru in 1883 in the
war of the Pacific.
Arid as the Sahara, the sole value
of this region lies in its nitrate de-
posits. And nitrates today are a
drug on the market. Not only that,
but experts declare that these
nitrate beds will have a decreasing
value from now on.
Chile Hurt by Science
In the United States, Germany,
Japan, and other countries, en-
gineers are taking nitrate out of
the air, synthetically producing
what for a long time was Chiles
principal source of revenue.
Once she supplied 90 per cent of
the worlds nitrates. Today, if need
be, the world could do without
Chilean nitrates altogether.
Science has dealt Chile hard
blow. AS result, Tacna and africa
are of waning Importance and she
easily could afford to dispose of a
narrow strip across them to form
for Bolivia corridor to the salt
water highways of commerce.

Tense of life" he says. They
should be drawn, not to prevent
minor disturbances, but only as
last resort, when human life is
endangered. The baton should
not be used except when a police
man is overpowered by superior
numbers.
This is not a matter of Senti-
ment. 1t is practical intelligence.
Much better results may be Sc
cured through firmness, coupled
with good judgment and Kind
ness.
Glassford sees the police of the
country confronted with grave
responsibilities, not only because
of the powerful underworld of
criminals, but because of the
danger Of rioting of citizens.

In each case, he says, the de-
mand is for policemen of the
highest possible intelligence. He
has established a police school
here.
nOLICING has become a pro-
l. fession. While I co not claim
a college education is necessary, I
think a policeman should be equal
in intelligence to any citizen. He
should be trained in police schools
to learn the law, the legal rights
of the citizens and his own legal
rights.
"A policeman is different from
a soldier. He works as an in
dividual and trusts to his own
judgment. Often he is judge and
jury of the first instance.
by his decision, often quick
one, he may affect the life of a
citizen for good or evil. Always
he must remember that he is part
of the community and is obligated
to help make the community safe
and comfortable"
