SCOUT JAMBOREE
] SLATED FOR 1887
Congress to Be Asked to
!Re.enaCt Bills Passed
More Than Year Ago.

Congress will be asked next month
%. re-enact three bills passed more
than q year ago so the postponed
Silver Jubilee Boy Scout Jamboree
can be held here in the Summer OF
1887.
The Jubilee celebration was origin
ally planned last Summer, but was
Cancelled, almost at the last minute,
when the spread of infantile paralysis
vas considered menacing. Earlier this
week, 1t was announced that the
celebration, although late, would be
held In Washington nevertheless. The
announcement, however, enormously
stated that 1t will be staged next
Summer instead Of in 1887.
Local oficiaIs Notified.
National Scout headquarters in New
York has sent notices to local Scout
authorities to prepare for the post
poned celebration in the last week
of June and the first week of July
in 1887.
In order to carry out the plan,
Congress will be asked to authorize
the use Of Army tents, blankets, cots
and other equipment; to authorize
the use Of public parks land as q
site for the camp for 80, 900 boys, and
to waive the head tax on foreign boys
who desire to come here for the
assembly.
rAll three Of these measures were met
by Congress in preparing for the 1885
celebration, but it will be necessary to
have the authorization renewed in
order to hold the encampment in 1887.
Holland JambOree Follows.
The date was selected so that what
ever boys desire to go to the interna-
tional jamboree in Holland may leave
Washington directly for that camp.
The Holland jamboree will be held
within q few weeks of the tentative
dates fixed for the jubilee here and
Boy Scout leaders here believe a large
number of Scouts from the Orient will
plan their trips so they may attend
both.
Preparations for the encampment
here last Summer had virtually been
completed when President Roosevelt
and Surg. Gen. Cummings asked that
1t be Cancelled. Fortunately, insur-
snce had been taken on the jamboree
and more than $250,000 collected as a
result is available to prepare for the
1887 session.

PREDICTS WORLD WAR

ADDS ABABA, Ethiopia. Aug. 2l Weeping as he talked, Emperor Halle Selassie today predicted in an Associated Press interview that war with Italy not only would drench the two countries in blood but might drag in the whole world.
 If, unhappily. such conflict leads to world struggle between the black and white races the very existence of humanity itself will be threatened" he said. We will be back in 1914, if international treat ies have no more validity than the word of thief. fear neither the United States nor England nor oth- CT great powers realize the gray ity of the situation and I pray God daily such a catastrophe will be averted."
 Tribal warriors here staged a sham battle here today in prepara- tion for hostilities with Italy.

PICKLE WE'RE IN

We notice Representative Barden, of our own
North Carolina, is asking congress for $4,000 to
help the cucumber growers of his section make
more money out of their pickles.
1t is laudabe objective, doubt, for Mr..
Barden to want to see his constituents instructed
in the best way of turning cucumbers into money.
There is, we feel sure, as much waste and trouble
in the pickle business as Mr. Barden says there is.
But We'll be hecked if we can see how he arrives
at the conclusion that it is obligatory u.s. peck
ing away on typewriter here in Durham, or the
coal miner digging far beneath the surface of the
earth in Pennsylvania coal shaft or the long
shoremen San Francisco wharf to chip in and
pay for teaching cucumber grower how to pack
his pickles.
We appreciate the value and justice of main
tanning farm agents. We are in sympathy with
movements to eradicate pests which spread over
the country and devastate our crops. We make
little complaint about multitude of governmental
services which help or pretend to help various
classes of our citizens. But this pickle business
seems to be something cucumber grower and his
associates could work out for themselves. If they
desire some expert advice they might try getting
together and chipping in themselves in order TO
hire someone who knows what it is all about.
We are becoming accustomed to depend too
heavily on the central government. We have a
tendency to look on "Uncle Sam" as benevolent
OLD sucker who has more money than he knows
what to do with which he secures in some mysterl-
Gus fashion. Uncle Sam is none other than the
people of this country who are trying to get along
and those people have to put up the cash.-The
