BETTER GOVERN MENT
KNOWLEDGE IS URGED
Principles, Aims Will Be Taught by
Now United States Society.

Need for better knowledge of the
principles, aims and methods of
government, was emphasized by
Booth Harrington, Indiana author,
in a statement issued today at
washington in behalf of the United
States Society. Bishop Joseph M.
Francis is chairman for the Indian
apolis unit of the organization,
which now is functioning in twenty
seven states.
Harrington, co-chairman of the
local unit, declared in the state
ment:
1T seems about time that even
political opinion should be based
upon some information rather than
on personal productions, and that
the young, in particular, should be-
gin to know something more than
they do of what the government Of
the United States actually is. how it
operates in practice as we'll as in
theory, what it can do and most
especially what it can not do"

LECTURER ION THE GO" CONSTANTLY SINCE $780,
BY JAMES WALDO FAwCETT.

ToUR decades of travelling over the
- face Of the earth, but no adven-
i Such is the confession of Bur-
ton Holmes, the travel-lecturer,
who is celebrating his fortieth ami
versary as an interpreter of what he
calls "the otherwhere," the far-fung
lands which worka6ay men and women
visit only in dreams.
IT have never seen a shipwreck,
never been in train wreck. never bad
any nhshaps flying, never experienced
any of the escapades and thrills that
romantic people relate" he declared.
Il was through the World War from
vimy Ridge to Venice, but in all my
career on the front saw only two dead
men. That does not mean that have
never been in danger, but 1t does sig
Nifty that the peril was not visible"
Asked how many miles he has jour-
neyed these last two-score years, he
replied: "Oh, any Pullman porter can
show greater distances travelled. You
see, it isn't the number of miles one
goes. It's what one does when one
gets where one is going, and what one
brings back, that Is important.
Girdled Globe Four Times.
Mr.. Holmes has been four times
around the world, has crossed the At
lantic so or 20 times, has crossed the
Pacific dozen times or more, and has
made innumerable side trips in North
and South America, Europe and Asia. A
conservative estimate of the distance
covered would be several hundred
thousand miles. He has been ION the
go" almost constantly since 1890 HIS
q yiun al Chirapn a.
vember Is, 1892, and the subject was
japan. He first used movies to Illus
trate his lectures in 1897.
The only section of the globe he has
not visited is South Africa. All the
rest of the earth is as familiar to him
as the back of his hand.
He speaks French, Italian, Spanish,
Portuguese and japanese, but he says
an American may go almost anywhere
with no other linguistic equipment than
his native tongue.
81 would much rather see MuSSolini
making a speech" he said, than meet
him formally face to face. I would
rather see the Kaiser kaisering, the
King kinging than shake hands with
them. OF course, I have met num-
bers of eminent statesmen and other
noted people, but / never have Sought
them out. President Taft came to hear
me lecture on the Philippines, and I
considered that very kind compli-
ment."
Hides Years Behind Beard.
Mr.. Holmes does most of his own
camera work, but his beautiful lantern
slides are colored by two assistants
who have had many years experience.
When travelling, he usually is accom-
panied by Mrs. Holmes, the former
Margaret Elise Oliver of Baltimore. and

cult pictures which Mr.. Holmes de-
clared he no longer is young enough to
attempt.
Sixty-two years of age. the lecturer
does not appear to be more than 40.
When complimented on his talent Tor
retaining his youth, he smiled, Il hide
the years behind my beard"
He formerly wrote his lectures and
memorized them, but recently he has
been speaking extemporaneously, and
he thinks the latter method IS the bet
ter, since it makes for spontaneity. He
has appeared before at least million
people in his tours, but he realizes that
many of them have been "repeaters." !"
They come once, they come twice, and
then they are good enough to form the
habit, and come many times"
Mr.. Holmes has had no proper vaca-
tion since he first began to wander.

These one-room structures served

SEATTLE. April p. - When
Dr.. Clarence ". Spears broke his
contract at the University of Ore
gon tc coach football at Wisconsin
it probably meant the end Of fur
ther importations of high-powered
expensive football coaches in the
Pacific Northwest.
DR.. Spears, who was unusually
successful at Oregon with only fair
material, will be succeeded by
Prince l. "Prinke Callison. a younE
fellow who learned his football at
Oregon and later starred as a high
school and frosh coach.
Callison will get about $4,000 on
a one-year contract as compared
to S11,500 received by Doc Spears.
In fact. Dr. Spears departure from
Oregon probably was precipitated
by the coming unification of all
schools of higher learning in Ore
gen and the feeling that a new
chancellor might not be too favor
able toward continuing high
salaried football mentor.
At the University of Washing
ton, alumni have "howled" long

mie Phelan, late Of Purdue, has
not been able to turn out a con-
tender in two years for the Pacific

DENIES SMITHS PLAN
WOULD PROVIDE BEER
Silas Strawn Considers Addition to
Volstead Act "Imprac-
tical."
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, october 27.-Silas Strawn,
Republican leader, former president of
the American Bar Association and OF
the United States Chamber Of Com
merce, said today he considered '1nn-
practical Alfred E. Smiths suggestion
to legalize beer by adding II words to
the Volstead act.
Smith suggested in talk at New
York last night that a section reading
Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to apply to matted liquors be
added to the act. the theory being that
beer then would be legal.
Mr.. Smith would have beer OF any
alcoholic content legalized," StraWn
said. Near the end of the last session
of Congress Democratic Congressman,
on their return from their national con-
vention. refused to support resolution
proposing 4 per cent beer.
II do not believe Congress would pass
a measure providing for beer of unllm-
tied alcoholic content. However, the
Democrats wouldn't have much opposl-
ton from Republican congressman for
per cent beer.
In fact, If the Democrats had stayed
by their party platform for immediate
modification and voted for the Bingham
resolution last Spring, we could have
good beer now"

JAPAN HITS COMPROMISE.
Toxic Opposes Reduction By Global
Tonnage.
By Gable to The Star.

by CaDIe 10 Inc OtdT.
LONDON, October 27.-Japanese
sources in London confirm the revela-
tion that Japan is strongly opposed to
the naval agreements, enviSaging an
Anglo American compromise, known to
have been discussed between Norman H.
Davis, American disarmament delegate,
and Ramsay Macdonald, British prime
minister.
1t is said that the japanese oppose the
principle of reduction by global tonnage
"a feature of the proposed Anglo-Amer-
lean compromise demand pro-
gressive reduction on the part of each
nation, with each power suiting its own
needs.
Japan is formulating strong counter
proposals to the BritiSh-American
formula, 1t is disclosed.
This Japanese opposition is viewed
here as sufficient evidence that Davis
and Macdonald reached a tangible and
valuable proposal for an Anglo-Amer
lean compromise in the matter of sea
power. Davis is remaining in London
today, prior to his journey to Geneva
for the meeting of the Preparatory
Commission of the World Economic
Conference. He will again see MacDon-
aid on the subject of naval limitation
and reduction, as we'll as the japanese
Ambassador. Tsuneo Matsudaira.
The outstanding Japanese objection
is their refusal to abolish submarines,
At the London naval conference OF
1880 the Japanese wanted $4,000 tons
OF Submarines but reluctantly accepted
the established maximum of 52,700 tons
1t is believed the Japanese consider
that figure the absolute irreducible
minimum for their submarine strength
Maintenance of this stand would pre-
vent any large reduction in the number
and tonnage of American destroyers
Similar French and Italian opposition
to the proposal to abolish submarines
would prevent the British from reducing
their tonnage in destroyerS.
