Man Makes Valuable
Find Among Savages
Natives of the Cook Islands In the
Pacific ocean are reported by a trav
eler returning- from a voyage there to
be taking a vegetable oil for rheu
matism which is said to accomplish
amazing results. He says he saw
badly crippled natives completely
cured by swallowing a little of this
oil twice a day. Hundreds of let
ters from rheumatic sufferers have
been answered and oil sent them free
after he returned to America. Mr. P.
E. Wilkes, now stopping at the Geor
gian Terrace hotel. Atlanta, Ga., can
supply further information and some
of the oil free.— (Advt.)

BOYS! MAKE AN AQUARIUM;
IT’S EASY, SAYS DAN BEARD
Xl—X
Tar x

W!i£2E—— — ’ «
YOU CAN MAKE THIS OUT OF OLD LUMBER—A HOME FOR
TURTLES AND LITTLE FISH.
Dan Beard is national Boy Scout
commissioner of America. He has
spent his life in work in the inter
est of boys and has written many
books about them. This is the first
of six stories on “Summer Stunts
for Boys,” written by him.
BY PAN BEARD
National Boy Scout Commisaioner
THESE are the days when all
boys think of building and
stocking an aquarium. To my
mind there is more fun to the
square Inch in gathering specimens
to stock an aquarium, than there is
in almost any other form of col
lecting.
All your specimens are caught
alive and kept alive, and none qf
them suffers if you are careful.
In collecting moths and butterflies
you have to kill the dainty crea
tures to be able to keep them, and
In collecting birds’ eggs you have
to rob the poor mother bird of at
least one of her treasures, and
doubtless make her feel mighty un
happy.
Just Bike a Scow
The simplest and. to my mind,
best form of aquarium is the land
and water aquarium, built according
to the diagram above. Make a veri
table scow about five or six feet
long. This can be done by cutting
two boards into the shape of sled
runners, Fig. 1.
Set these side pieces' four feet
apart and nail two temporary cross
pieces on to hold them in position
while putting on the bottom, Fig. 2.
See that the bottom boards fit snug
ly together and after they are all
on, it is well to give the outside
of the bottom a coating hot tar.
Get the tar from the town's roofer,
heat it in an old tin can over a
wood fire in the back yard and smear
it on with a mop of rags tied to a
stick.
This done, dig a hole for the
trough-like tank in the shadiest spot
in the back yard and after placing
the tank, pack the earth well around
it. Then get some sand, rocks and
gravel (avoid salty seashore sand)
and cover the bottom of the tank,
building a picturesque little island in
the center. Next fill the tank with
water and let it stand for a day to
clear and settle.
Put Plants In
Meanwhile you can start to collect
your specimens. First gather all
the aquatic plants you can, such as
pickerel weed, cow lilies, arrow
heads, bulrushes and the like, and
plant them in the earth at the bot
tom of the tank.
If you can secure enough marine
growth the plant life will keep suffi
cient cßkygen in the water to make
it always fresh and you will never
have to change the water in the
tank.
It is time now to go after your
specimens, newts, snails, polywogs,
frogs, sunfish, catfish, minnows, tur
tles, and almost .any other aquatic
creature of the fresh water variety |
will live contentedly in this form of'
aquarium and you will always have
great fun watching them, studying
their actions, and feeding them.

Bergdoll’s'Brother
Describes Effort to
Escape From Stigma
WASHINGTON. May 24.—How he
sought to get out from under the
Bergdoll stigma was related to the
house Bergdoll committee today by
Charles A. Braun. Philadelphia,
brother of Grover Cleveland Berg
doll. who changed his name.
“I could foresee years ago what
was com-ing and even then I got into
this mess,’ said Braun. “I have been
on the outs with my mother, Grover
and Erwin Bergdoll.”
Braun testified that he knew noth
ing of the pot of gold story. Gen
eral John JI. Sherburne questioned
Braun as to why he withdrew $5,000
from a Philadelphia bank shortly be
fore bis brother’s escape and why
his mother paid him (Braun) $5,000
after the escape. Braun claimed his
mother's check was part payment on
some property. Braun said he would
look up the checks.
“I first heard of Grover’s desire
to escape in 1920," said Braun.
“Thomas E. Furay, of Baltimore,
came to me with a letter from Berg
doll in which he asked aid to escape.
I advised him against it and sent a
man to Governor’s island to urge
Grover not to attempt it.’J

HARDING ON WAY
omcmi.
NEW YORK, May 24.—President
Harding today was on his way to
Washington on board the presiden
tial yacht, Mayflower, which left
here late last night. Early this
morning a message was received say
ing the craft had passed Sandy Hook
on a moonlit sea that was* made
moderately rough by a fresh north
east wind.
The yacht was accompanied by the
destroyer Truitt, while the New York
police boat. John F. Hylan, escorted
her as far as the Narrows. The
president and members of his party
retired soon after going on board.
The departure followed a day fill
ed with activity. From early in the
morning, when he attended a cere
mony in Hoboken to honor more than
5,000 fallen war heroes, whose bod
ies were there until he had concluded
an address at the One Hundred and
Twenty-fifth anniversary of the New
York Commercial, last night the
president was busy. After this ad
dress he was whisked to the May
flower. which immediately put to sea
to carry the chief executive back to
his official duties in Washington?
Only one hitch occurred,in the pro
gram for the day. This was caused
by a fire which practically destroy
ed the third oldest fighting craft in
the navy. The Granite State, now
used as a naval militia training
ship, which was lying near the presi
dential yacht, caught fire when oil
on the water about her was fired by
a spark from a passing motor boat.
Flames swept about her and fire
fighting apparatus had to be placed
on the pier at which the Mayflower
was lying. The yacht was removed
to the foot of Eighty-sixth street,
the pier of the Columbia Yacht club,
where the presidential party boarded
her.
Tennessee Doctor,
Surgeon in Army,
Killed by Farmer
NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 24. —De-
tails of a sensational tragedy enact
ed Sunday at Wartrace, south of
here.. have reached Nashville. Dr.
G. E. Horton, prominent physi
cian of Shelbyville, a major and
surgeon in the army during the war,
having been shot to death on the
square of Wartrace by W. B. Car
roll, prominent farmer of the latter
place.
Dr. Horton had driven from
Shelbyville to Wartrace with a son
to catch a train and was standing
near a public well on the square
talking with acquaintances when
Carrol 1 appeared and as Horton
faced him, opened fire with a revol
ifecr, sending a bullet through the
pnysician’s head. As Horton fell,
Carroll is said to have emptied his
pistol into his victim’s body. Car
roll’s friends offered to have bond in
any amount for him, but he was car
ried to Shelbyville, the county seat,
where the magistrate and coronor,
after hearing eye-witnesses, fixed his
bond at $25,000, which vzas made.
Carroll is quoted as having told
officers that Horton had broken up
his home. Carroll and his wife have
been separated a few months.
Disarmament Is
Favored by Lodge
BOSTON, May 24.—United States
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, in a let
ter read Sunday at a mass meeting
at which reduction of armaments by
international agreement was Indorsed,
said that President Harding “has
this matter very much at heart, and
I am sure you may trust in his doing
all that he can to forward it.” '
Asserting that he himself was
heartily in favor of an international
agreement for a general reduction of
armaments, Senator Lodge continued:
“A reduction of armaments by one
great maritime power and a contin
ued increase in armament by another
would, in my judgment, lead to war
rather than to peace; but of the value
of the international reduction of arm
aments there can be no question. It
is something all must believe in and
favor on all occasions.”
Ex-Deputy Marshall
Gets Heavy Sentence
SAVANNAH. Ga.. May 24.—A. M.
Kea, former United States deputy

charges of accepting bribes from
blind tiger liquor men to protect

ed in the federal court Monday by
Judge Evans to pay a fine of SI,OOO
and serve eighteen months in the
federal prison in Atlanta.
Kea made a short address to the
court, saying he was the victim of
circumstances and declaring he was
no more guilty than the judge on
the bench. Judge Evans expressed
regret at having to sentence a for
mer office of his court.

Os Self-Imposed Fast
SELMA, lowa. May 24.—Walter
Oliver, son of a wealthy farmer, died

WASHINGTON. May 24.—Henry
Lane Wilson, former ambassador to
Mexico, is understood to be upper
most in the mind of President Har

DORSEY COMMENDED
BY PRESBYTERIANS
Following an address by Dr. Plato
Durham on inter-racial conditions hi
Georgia as pictured by the recent
pamphlet issued by Governor Dorsey,
the Presbyterian Ministers’ associa
tion of Atlanta Monda yunanimous
ly adopted resolutions pledging the
efforts of the association to follow
the governor's request and “dissem
inate doctrines of mercy, Justice and
mutual forbearance between the
races.”
The resolution was presented by
Rev. B. R. Lacy, Jr., pastor of the
Central Presbyterian church, in
which the meeting of the association
was held. Its text was as follows:
“Inasmuch as Governor Hugh M.
Dorsey has brought to the attention
of the people of Georgia certain in
justices to members of the colored
race which have been brought to his
attention as the chief executive of
the state:
“And inasmuch as he has called
upon the ministers to disseminate in
their churches and Sunday schools
the doctrines of mercy, justice and
mutual ferbearaneg between the
races, we pledge ourselves anew to
such a program.
"(Signed)
“PRESBYTERIAN MINISTERS’ AS-
SOCIATION OF ATLANTA.
“By A. R. HOWLAND, Sec.”
Tlie action by the Presbyterian
ministers closely followed a similar
resolution passed by the Baptis't Min
isters’ conference Monday morning.
This resolution strongly commended
the action of Governor Dorsey in
calling upon the people of Georgia
for a clearer, broader and more sym
pathetic understanding of inter-racial
problems, and pledged the hearty in
dorsement of the Baptist ministers to
the governor’s action. It was passed
by a vote of 25 to 4.
Florida House Plans
To Keep Senators
Off the Golf Links
TALLAHASSEE. Fla.. May 24.
With the ambition of providing
enough work to keep the honorable
senate so busy its members can find
no time *or afternoons off for the
purpose of playing golf, the house
closed its doors Monday morning in
executive session long enough to
evolve a plan which its members
hope will have the desired effect.
It was mutually agreed that every
member should have the privilege of
taking up one bill of general inter
est, but f such nature that it prob
ably would not call for debate. It
wduld then- be quickly passed, and
it was the intent and purpose of the
house to send over 77 such bills to
the senate Monday afternoon as a re
sult of the plan. There were 93
pages on the house calendar Monday
morning and but 43 on the senate
calendar. The house hoped to re
verse the case Tuesday and to keep
the senate on the job instead of on
the golf links.
Senator Turnbull’s committee
formed witn the idea of redistrict
ing the judicial circuits of the state
so as to more fairly apportion the
work of the various circuits held its
final meeting Monday afternoon, and
Mr Turnbull hopes to be able to
make report of the committees work
to the senate late in the day. He
believes it will be possible to so re
district the state as to cut down the
total number of districts, since it is
well known' that some districts are
much busier than others.
Revision of Lever
Cotton Futures Act
Advocated in Senate
WASHINGTON, May 24. —Revision
of the Lever cotton futures trading
law in the interest of cotton pro
ducers was advocated today before
the senate agriculture committee by
Senator Dial, of South Carolina, a
cotton planter and mill owner. He
declared the law did not work “hon
estly” and added: “I am surprised
that it has been allowed to remain
on the statute books.”
Senator Dial produced figures t 4
show that through speculative future
trades in one year there had been
sold on the cotton exchange eight
times the total cotton actually pro
duced. The senator said that he was
not attacking the exchanges, but he
said that future speculative trading
should not be allowed to affect the
prices of spot cotton. He expressed
doubt whether maintenance of ex
changes was necessary to the cotton
trade.
A specific bill, which Senator Dial
supported as a remedial measure, was
his bill to amend the law relating
to of future contracts.
It would give the seller as well
as the buyer the rignt to deliver one
half of the contract in two or more
grades. This, Senator Dial said,
would tend to steady and regulate
spot prices and place sellers on a
closer plane with buyers.
The committee deferred action on
the bilk
Mme. Curie Unlearned
In American Politics
WASHINGTON. May 24.—Mme.
Curie, world famous chemistt and
discoverer of radium, was taken to
task today for her inability to grasp
the distinction between the two
major political parties of this coun
try.
She may know a lot about the ac
tivity of radium, but she knows lit
tle about i olitical history, the Re
publican Publicity association
charged in an indignant protest
against her statement that she secs
little difference between the Repub
lican and Democratic parties.
For this “admission of ignorance”
the association nlaced her in the
same class with “another world lead
er in his line— Henry Ford."
For fear that many others are
“similarly uninformed” the associa
tion’s statement gives a lesson on
the fundamental differences between
the two parties and concludes that
the dissimilarity is as great between
a “bit of radium and a chunk of
ice.”

BUSINESS CO-OPERATION
IS URGED BY HARDING
NEW YORK, May 24.—The co-op
ation of every factor of American
business and industry to put the na
tion’s house in order after the dislo
cations of war was bespoken by
President Harding tonight at a din
ner here celebrating the 125th anni-.
versary of the New York Com
mercial.
Agriculture, labor and business
management, the president declared,
all must stand together in the con
fident purpose of sound reconstruc
tion. He asserted that although the
United States did not want to live in
isolation or selfishness, its duties to
the rest of the vyorld could best be
performed by giving its attention
first to the rehabilitation of its own
resources.
On the part of the administration,
Mr. Harding promised that govern
ment interference with business
would be reduced to a minimum while
government co-operation with alll
properly conducted businesses would
be expanded and broadened. He de
clared his purpose to reverse the ten
dency in some - quarters to “regard
business as dishonest until it should
prove itself honest, and to regard
bigness in business as a crime.”
Emphasizing the fundamental im
portance of agriculture, the president
asserted that the farmer was entitled
to “all the help the government can
give him without injustice to others.”
For the wage-earner he asked suf
ficient compensation for comfort, edu
cation and a margin of savings, while
for every other element in industry
he urged a fair opportunity to do its
part in the reconstruction task.
Mr. Harding also suggested that
the nation’s loans to the allies be put
into a more tangible form, that fa
cilities of exchange be bettered, and
that all the financial policies of
the reconstruction period be so form
ulated as to protect the gold standard.
“Assuming that these things may
be laid down as fundamentals,” he
said, ‘‘it is for us all to get to work.
We must have confidence that things
will come right. We have dealt with
the greatest problem that humanity
ever confronted in carrying on the
war. We will have no problem here
after greater or more difficult tnan
that was. Therefore we are entitled
to every confidence that we will cope
successfully with the problems that
yet lie ahead of us.’’
Text of Address
The text of the president’s address
follows in part:
“The, New York Commercial was
founded in the time when the young
republic was distracted by a division
of opinion concerning our relations
with Europe. The noble Washington
was being lampooned and traduced
because his administration was com
mitted to the Jay treaty with Great
Britain, first of the nation’s commer
cial covenants. It represented an ef
fort to escape embroilment with the
old world system; and in the period
when we were too weak to sustain a
foreign conflict, it served to post
pone that disaster. But only to post
pone it; for with every wish to pre
serve the peace, it was impossible.
We fought wars with France and
England, as incidents to the French
revolutionary and Napoleonic up
heaval.
“It has been assumed too often
that our recent involvement in the
troubles of Europe marked a new de
velopment in our affairs, in fact, it
was an old story. We never were
and never will be able, to maintain
isolation. But our part and our
place in international affairs are
strikingl ycbanged. Our rise in power
and influence has imposed new re
sponsibilities. 'Today our strength in
the industrial, financial and commer
cial world, our capacity to produce,
our ability to extend credits which
others cannot give, and wljich brave
but unfortunate peoples sorely need—
all these make it necessary that we
shall adopt new commercial methods,
whereby tp insure the fullest possi
ble service to civilization. I bespeak
the help of every organ of intelli
gent, understanding business, to en
able the nation to meet these de
mands.
“It has been said many times, but
it cannot be too often repeated and
emphasized, that in doing this we
will be alike discharging a duty to
others and seizing an opportunity
for our own advancement. There
have seldom been more convincing
proofs than we see all around us
now. of the essential interdependence
of all parts of the world. He who
displays the broadest spirit of broth
erhood, helpfulness and true, charity,
will most surely be casting his bread
upon the waters.
Duty Is Pressing
“Our duty to the world at large is
pressing, but we will equip ourselves
best to perform helpfully if we are
unwaveringly loyal to ourselves. The
most important thing to Americans
is America, and the most important
thing to America is our constitution
al system. Inseparable from the for
mation of a more perfect union, the
constitution sought to establish jus
tice. True, we have not attained the
perfection of our ideals in this re
gard, nor has any other human so
ciety done so. Justice, like charity,
must begin at home. We must be
just to ourselves and to our own,
first of all. This is not selfish, for
selfishness seeks more than a fair
share; we seek only that which is
rightfully our own. and then to pre
serve that to ourselves and our pos
terity.
“We will do well to keep tn mind
‘at this time the fundamental impor
tance of agriculture, and in every
possible way insure justice to it. The
farmer is entitled to all the help the
government can give him without
injustice to others, because it is of
the utmost importance that the agri
cultural community be contented and
prosperous. This must be accom
plished not at the expense of any
other section of the community, but
by processes which will insure real
justice among all elements in the
community.
“Turning to industry, our policy
must be to give it every facility
possible, but to keep government out
side of participation in business on
its own account. It is not necessary
for the government to intrude itself
in the business activities which are
better conducted through private in
strumentalities, merely in order to
demonstrate that the government is
more powerful than anything else in
this country. The government’s part
in business should be no more than
to insure adherence to the principles
of common honesty, and to establish
regulations that will enable it to sail
a safe course. There has been some
tendency to regard business as dis
honest until it should prove itself I
honest, and to regard bigness in busi
ness as a crime. But almost all
business today is conducted on a
scale, which though we have come
to regard is as commonplace, would
rave made our forefathers gasp: and
I prefer to assume it is honest until
proven dishonest. So, I speak for
TiniFF BILL NOW
ENGAGES CONGRESS
WASHINGTON,. May 24?—Con
gress leaders are working night and
day to have the general tariff bill
ready for report to the house early
in June. Then the tax revision bill
will remain to be disposed of before
the congressmen can flee from
Washington’s summer weather.
Delays seem unavoidable however.
The miscalculations of leaders on
speedy passage of the emergency
tariff bill demonstrate this. They
thought it would go through in a
week. Instead, it took two and a
half months. The emergency tariff
is now before President Harding
for signature.
In anticipation of delays to the
general tariff bill, Representative
Longworth, Ohio, has gained a fa
vorable report on his - resolution,
which would put into effect the
rates in the general tariff bill on the
day after it is reported to the
house.
While Chairman Fordney of the
ways and means committee believes
that the Longworth resolution will
pass the house, he is dubious of it's
fate in the senate. Chairman Pen
rose of the senate finance commit
tee is not enthusiastic over the
Longworth plan. Unless the rates
in the house bill suited him, there is
little chance of the resolution pass
ing the senate.
It is also pointed out that Re
publicans and Democrats who voted
for the emergency tariff bill to pro
tect agricultural products with high
rates, are likely to balk at the Long
worth plan.
REPUBLICANS TO CAUCUS
ON LONGWORH PROPOSAL
WASHINGTON, May 24. The
Longworth resolution making the im
port duties in the permanent tariff
bil leffective as soon as the measure
is reported from the house ways and
means committee has caused a sharp
division among house Republicans.
As a result the Republican steer
ing committee today decided to put
the resolution before a caucus of
Republican members. This probab
ly will be done within a week.
the least possible measure of gov
ernment interference with business,
but for the largest co-operation with
properly-conducted business, and the
most effective measures to insure
that, whether it be big or little, busi
ness shall be honest and fair.
Secure Wage Earner
“In our effort at establishing in
dustrial justite, we must see that
the wage earner is placed in ait eco
nomically sound position. His low
est wage must be enough for com
fort, enough to jnake his house a
home, enough to insure that the
struggle for existence shall not
crowd out the things truly worth ex
isting for. There must be provision
for education, for recreation, and a
margin for savings. There must be
such freedom of action as will insure
full jrlay to the individual’s abilities.
On the other side, the wage earner
must do justice to society. He must
render services fully equal in value
to the compensation he is paid. And,
finally, both employer and em
ploye owe to the public such ef
ficiency as will insure that cost of
service or production shall not be
higher than the public can fairly
pay.
“Assuming that these things may
be laid down as fundamentals, it is
for us all to get back to work. That
is what made our country great, it
is what will put the whole world
back on the right track. W r e must
have, the world must have, confi
dence that things will come out
right. We have dealt with the great
est problem that humanity ever con
fronted, in carrying on the war. We
will have no problem hereafter
greater or more difficult than that
Was. Therefore, we are entitled to
every confidence that we will cope
successfully with the problems which
yet lie ahead of us.
“Our position in the world has
been greatly changed as a result of
the war. We have become a creditor
rather than a debtor. The exigencies
of war compelled the government to
take, by taxation, much wealth from
our people, to be loaned to our al
lies. This is the basis of their obli
gation to us, and it is not a. good
form in which to hold the obliga
tions, and distribute them among all
the people. We hope also that there
may be effective reduction of the
cost of government. In these ways
we hope to release a great volume of
wealth and credit from the burden
that government has been imposing,
and make it available for tliei. devel
opment of domestic industry and the
expansion of foreign trade. We ask
the co-operation of business leaders, .
and we assure them that within its
propert limitations the government
will meet them half way.
Demand for Products
“By this process we shall aim to
create renewed demand for the
product of our industries, to estab
lish permanent markets abroad for
surpluses. We are learning that the
immediate need, so far as our own
country is concerned, is not so much
production as facilities of exchange.
To that end, I could wish that the
tendency of the world’s gold to grav
itate to us might be checked. Beyond
the point of insuring security to our
circulation, gold would be more use
ful to us in the vaults of great banks
abroad, wherfe it would be the guar
antee of the geld standard and of
those fair exchanges which are vital
in international trade. I feel strongly
that the protection of the gold stand
ard is one of the great obligations
which peculiarly apeals to us.
“We are coining to understand the
elements of the problem we face, and
that is a long st6p toward solution.
Give us the earnest support of such
men as I see gathered here, of such
organs of sound policy as we are
gathered to acclaim, and we shall
not be long in putting our country
on the right course, ready for the
signal, ‘full speed ahead.’ ”
