FINE RECORD
10 More Patients a
Day Cared For in
Past Month

While medical and health or
ganizations Of the city prepared
to wage a fight to the finish
against the closing Of the Tuber-
culosis Hospital at Fourteenth
and Upshur Streets Northwest,
the institution today reported to
the Board Of Public Welfare that
an average Of 10 more patients
a day was maintained at the hos
pital during last month.
: In the budget for the fiscal
year 1887, now being considered
by Congress, the Budget Bureau
recommended that the UpShur
Street hospital be legislated out
Of existence by next January /.
The Commissioners had recon-
mended to the bureau that the
hospital be kept open for the full
fiscal year.
DR.. j. Winthrop Peabody, Su-
perintendent Of the hospital. In
formed the welfare board in a
report today that during last
month the daily average Of
patients at the institution was
226 while during January, 1885,
the average was 216.
He said the largest number
for any one day in January was
228 and the smallest 219, which
compares with q maximum Of
224 and q minimum Of 219 In
January, 1885.
A cheering note was appended
to the report Of DIR. Peabody,
which stated that through de-
veIopment Of various operative
techniques which have been dis
covered is shown in the fact
that while there were Sc deaths
in the first seven months Of the
fiscal year which began July l,
1884, there have been only "a

NO LIBERTY WITH
OUT SOCIALISM,
SAYS THOMAS

SPOKANE. - (LSP) - With
a declaration that there is an
"onninous decline in civil liberties
which has grown apace under an
administration which prides ltsen
on its liberality," Norman Thon1-
as. Socialist candidate for presl-
dent in a radio address over the
Don Lee network of the Columbia
Broadcasting system, replied to a
QUESTIONABLE sent to- all preslden-
tial candidates by the American
Civil Liberties Union.
After directly answering the
questions, Thomas said, "The IN
creasing denial of civil liberty in
America arises from the desperate
effort of an owning class to hang
onto it's power and privilege under
a social order which is obviously
denying to the masses of men the
abundance and leisure which they
have a right to expect. Terrorism
in steel towns, citrus fields and on
cotton plantations, is an evidence
of the failure of capitalism. 1t is
the method of men who recognize
brute force as the only basis Of
their power. Workers, while
speak, are forced by the police
and by mobs to pick cotton II

and sadistic organizations like tn

The Next President

The nomination of Governor Alfred M. Landon of
Kansas for the presidency by the Republican National
Convention pitches the tone of the coming campaign
The issue is squarely joined by the records and the
personalities of the rival candidates. for inevitably Pres
dent Roosevelt will be the Democratic nominee.
ON THE ONE HAND WE HAVE THE REPUB-
LICAN CHOICE: A HoMEsPUN, SOUND AMERICAN,
WITH AN OUTSTANDING RECORD FOR PRAC-
TICAL COMMON SENSE AND AN ENVIABLE REAL
IzATIoN OF THE POSSIBILITIES AND LIMITA-
TIoNs OF GOVERNMENT.
On the other hand we have the Democratic choice; a
power -grasping pledge breaking visionary, with out
standing record for leapng into unsound experiments
and determination to grasp in his own hands the full
measure of autocratic control
The nomination of Governor Landon came from the
people, came from them with such overpowerng rush
that any attempt of politicians and bosses to dictate the
action of the Republican convention would have been
futile.
THE CONVENTION IN CLEVELAND WAS, IN
FACT, SIMPLY A RATIFICATION MEETING, FOR
MALLY PLACING THE PARTY SEAL ON THE MAN
SELECTED BY AMERICANS TO LEAD THEM IN
THE FIGHT TO RECAPTURE THEIR LIBERTIES
AND THEIR SELF RESPECT.
No such claims can be made for what will happen in
Philadelphia later in the month.
That convention will be simply ratification meeting
too but it will be in session to ratfy the will Of the
bosses and to cast the votes of the political parasites
who are feeding on the thousands of millions Of YOUR
dollars
With these contrasts in the mind there is only one
course open to Americans in November.
That is to follow the American way to vote for the

ideals and to reestablish American government

COMPENSATION

This current recess of Congress
has provided at least one break
for visiting tourists.
When the Senate is not in Ses-
sion they can see the Gold Room
or Presidents room. 1t is used
on the rare occasions when the
President visits the Senate as the
Chief Executives private reception
room. It is royalty decorated and
called the most beautiful room in
the Capitol.
When the Senate is in session
1t is used by Senators and news
papermen for interviews and the
public is not allowed down the
corridor where it is situated.
Of course, the tourists can't see
the House of Representatives and
Senate in session, but a chance
to see the Gold Room is consid-
cred ample compensation.

they will certainly limit many a

And, indeed, she was a sort OF

her golden oils.
For 66 years she lived in the

Nothing passed there that had not

that was not, in part, the product

Journeys
HONGKONG

Singapore ana Hongkong are
two places that are familiar to
every world-traveler, and both
have much to offer, especially
Hongkong.
Hongkong, with its famous hills,
its harbor with the peculiar blue
green of its waters, its pleasant
subtropical weather, except in sum-
mer, has much to offer the visitor.
Then, too it is a facinating mix
ture of the Orient and the Occi-
dent, with cricket field and solid
mercantile establishments con-
trasting with the native quarters.
Hongkong is a monument to
British law and order, in some
things typically British and per-
hapS rather Stolid and Stuffy, even
If it is the Orient. But this, too,
adds to the interest of the place.
Hongkong proper is a rocky
little island some II miles long
and from two to five miles wide.
off the Chinese mainland, near
the Pearl River and Canton.
Five miles across the bay. on the
mainland, is Kowloon, also British,
with it's big hotel and the towers
of the Kowloon-C Canton railway
station, landmarks visible for
miles.
Ferry boats shuttle to and fro
between Kowloon and Hongkong,
across the lovely harbor with its
liners and freighters from all over
the world, and its huge gray war
ships flying the British flag.
The warships, like the statue of
Queen Victoria, the cricket fields,
the seaside parks, all remind nos
talgic Britishers of home and make
it little easier to bear exile from
Pail Mall and the Strand.
