been taken out of circulation
owing to the curtailment of the
bureaus funds. The cars and
the trained men that accom-
panied them were a source of
much satisfaction to the mining
sections and it is distinct loss
to these sections to lose the adj
vice and knowledge brought by
these cars and their crews in
matters pertaining to mining
and rescue work.

HOCKEY.

In thrilling contest Of hard checking
and brilliant teamwork by the crack
Genoa sextet, the Ely boys, lacking de-
Tense and scoring punch, were defeated
by score Of to 2.
In the first period the Genoa Falcons
had things their own way and kept the
Ely defense men baffled with their fast
stick work. The Falcons rushed over
the blue line to score four times, on
Goalie Lekatz. Paulever, on a pass
from Debevec, was the first to tally
followed by Deblok who slashed the
puck into the net once and Carey re-
peated twice ON two passes from Paul
ever.
From that time on the game was an
evenly matched battle until the final
canto when Genoa tailed three times
and Ely twice. Isaacson and Markovich
were the scorers and the stellar players
for the locals with Markovich starring
on defense. In the last period time was
taken because of a fre-for-au fight
which started when Deblok slashed
Markovich in the face with his stick.
Neither of the men were given penal
ties. Following was the lineup:

Wooden golf clubs that will not

polish are promised by new wax
impregnation process originated by the
United States Forest Service.
Developed by DR.. A. ]. Stamm,
chemist in the services forest products
laboratory at Madison, Wis, it prom

the trend toward metal in products
formerly manufactured from wood,
Forest Service officials say.
Chief Forester F. A. SilcoX says 1t
will open up new possibilities for finer
craftsmanship in wood and better
service to the user than ever before.
DR. Stamm's process consists of a
double impregnation in which the
first chemical introduces the second,
which is the final wax. The first,
cellulose solvent. replaces the water
in the membrane spaces of the wood
aid, when placed in melted wax
bath, is itself replaced and distilled off.

CENSUS MEASURE
APPEAL IS URGED
Dr.. W. H. Anderson Tells
Methodists Roosevelt Has
Blocked Legislation.

Charging that President Roosevelt
al the instigation of Postmaster Gen
eral James A. Farley. is smothering
legislation by which congressional
representation would be allocated on
a count of United States citizens only,
DR.. William H. Anderson, former Anti
Saloon League campaigner and now
secretary OF the American Christian
Alliance. this morning suggested to
the Baltimore Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church that they
petition the President for his support
of the proposal

The legislation in question consists
OF bills sponsored by Senator Capper,
Republican of Kansas, and Repre-
sentative Tarver. Democrat of Georgia,
by which a constitutional amendment
would be authorized TO direct estab-
lishment of congressional districts on
a basis of citizen population. excluding
aliens from the population count in
this respect. Similar legislation has
been before previous Congresses.
DR.. Anderson's appeal for support Of
this legislative effort. however. was
embraced in a fiery l0-minute speech
before the conference at which time
he attacked the Roman Catholic
Church for its political activities in
this country and charged that its in
fiuence. as directed by Mr.. Far.ey.
was responsible for repeal of the
eighteenth amendment and is aiming
at establishment Of Romanistic po-
litical machine in America.
Address Is Applauded.
DR.. AnderSon's address was followed
by applause from about 300 attending
the conference, but no mention OF 1t
was made by speakers following him,
nor was any action taken Immediately
on his suggestion for presentation OF
a resolution to President Roosevelt.
Most of this mornings session OF
the conference was taken up with
examination of candidates for the
Methodist ministry. Rev. Edwin Lewis
