OH, WHAT la bo harmless as a congressional investigation. THREE Hammond men have found a way to raise money, but Uncle Sam frowns upon it. SUGGESTION for Chicago salutations: "Have you had your lead today 7“ THE PRESIDENT of Uruguay suggests his job be abolished. Dangerous precedent, that. WELL, anyhow, nobody has accused the police of holding the ladder for porch climbers. WHILE enforcing the speed limit on motorists, why not include the age limit on flappers. IT APPEARS that some of our county officers get the office first and then give their address. SIXTY-SIX Jugs were included among Princess Mary’s wedding gifts. Presumably they were given by Americans. JACK LONDON Is said to be sending back spirit messages, but his writings seem to have been edited by a cub copy reader. Birthday of the War Five years ago today messages were flashing to all parts of the world tha: the United States had declared war on Germany, messages that revived the hope of victory in the hearts of the allies fighting desperate!} with their Lacks to the wall. Three days before Woodrow Wilson had read these immortal words to the American Congress: “W* are now about to accept the gage of battle with the natural foe to l,t>ertv and shall, if necessary, spend tie whole force of the Nation to check ana • nullify Its pretensions and powers. W e are glad now that we see the facta with no veil or false pretense about them, to fight thus for the ultimate peace or the world and for the liberties of Its peoples, the German peoples included, lor the rights of nation*, great and small, and the privilege of men everywhere to choos* their way of life and of obedience. The world n ust be made safe for democracy.” , . , The world now knows how this Nation, young ts nations go, hurled its mighty force Into the fray and made possible the victory; how it mobilized its forces and sent two million young men overseas and how one hundred thousand were left to sleep the eternal sleep on the soil of France, and how our position of leadership was dimmed but not extinguished in the heat of partisan fury' when peace again had come again. Wrecked in body no less than the shell and shot torn veterans of the trenches, the author of those lines has lived to see the fundamentals he championed adopted in spirit by the great nations, and today he is ensh-’ned in the hearts of the people as perhaps is no other living American. His attempt to show the people "how an ex-President should behave” since he retired from the White House, together with a true appreciation of his ideals, has turned the tide of political assassination, loosed by his foes in 1920, into a growing veneration on the part ol the public. Today the public has generously subscribed to a million dollar fund to perpetuate the ideals which are recognized as the very essence of Mr. W r ilson’s statesmanship and the embodiment of the principles of true democracy. But what of the boys who answered the call of Mars five years ago? Can they say the republic has expressed its grateful and sincere appreciation of the sacrifices they made? There are thousands of disabled veterans dependent upon governmental aid who are still the victims or niggardly pittance and miles of red tape. There is much yet to be done In behalf of these unfortunates, although, thanks to the American region, their conditions are being bettered. And the back pay or readjusted compensation, promised so glibly, is still in the embryonic stage. The veterans who have sponsored its passage have seen themselves in the short span of five years metamorphosed from ‘'heroes” to “treasury raiders,” but despite the failure to recognize the Justness of their claims it is certain that when the time comes when legislators will listen to the demands of the people above the vociferations of the interests the former service men will find the republic is not ungratefuL The war contractors have been reimbursed, the railroads have been r!wembered, but the man who served in ’l7-18 is still on the waiting list. L The birthday anniversary of that momentous declaration finds Europe remade. There is a republic in Germany and William Hohenzollern is an exile Holland. Franz Josef, who leagued with him in starting the war, is dead; Karl, who fought with him, is dead, and the old monarchies that held such a powerful sway before the war have given way to the faltering, but nevertheless determined and irresistible, march that is making "democracy safe for the world.”

Sunk and the Soldier Vote Os all the bunk passed out in a campaign filled more or less -with bunk the worst is the attempt to create a separate political entity of the former soldiers by appealing to them on the strength of the service record of one of the candidates. Men who served in the World War, or any other war for that matter, are normal citizens and are not particularly attracted to one candidate because at one time or another he donned his country’s uniform. Nor Is this appeal in behalf of a candidate any the more alluring because that individual served as a captain in the quartermaster’s department during the Spanish-American War, far removed from the shot and shell and fever of the camps of that day. Unless we mistake the mental process of the former service man it is useless to practice this kind of bunk on him. Being a normal citizen and having the interests of his country at heart he is much more interested in knowing what qualifications of statesmanship the candidate can exhibit and put into practice if he is intrusted with an office, than he is in reading bulky txea'.oes cn his “war” record of twenty-five years ago. One thing, however, that will interest voters who were in service during the World War is a complete knowledge of the candidates' views and activities during that trying period. He will be interested in knowing what that man did to back him up while he was at the front, what he did for his kin who had felt war’s hand creep down into their home, and how loyally he supported the various moves designed to bring the conflict to a speedy and victorious close. Men who served when the world was being remade learned to look their comrades in the eye and they measured each other by the standards of men. They resented patronizing then and they don’t want it now. They want real men in office and they don’t want to form their impressions of the candidates from a great mass of bunk. Confidence in Lloyd George The vote of confldei.ce granted Lloyd George by the English House of Commons will be generally approved by those who have observed the doughty premier’s conduct of the powerful office ever since he took over the governmental reins from Asquith’s faltering* hands. That he is the last of the great war leaders to remain in power is a wonderful tribute to his ability as a statesman and a leader. The vote of the Commons was not alone an expression of confidence in the premier, but in the purposes of the Genoa conference. There he will deal with the Russian situation in the full knowledge that what he does there will have the support of Great Britain. Lloyd George has made it plain that Russia can only re-enter civilization with clean hands, a policy that is reassuring to the United States, although the latter will have no official part in the conference. Russia, purged of Bolshevist poison, with demobilized armies and with a stable government at its head would be an important factor in the economic readjustment of the world. With the British premier standing for these conditions America will be fully as interested ia w atching him at Genoa as will his own countrymen.

Highways and By-Ways of Lil’ Ol’ New York By RAYMOND CARROLL (Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.)

NEW YORK, April 6.—One is apt to think of the Friends as exclusively a part of Philadelphia. There are Friends in New York City, not many of them, it is true, but enough to point the example of clean living, simplicity and unobtrusive charity whUh have always been characteristic of the society of Friends. To find them in their quiet and unassuming going and coming in the great metropolis—the whirlpool of Jazz, rolled stockings, bobbed hair, petting parties and vulgar dancing—suggests an oasis of goodness in a desert of frivolity and iniquity. Hid away midst the giant office buildings and apartment buildings which are the architectural symbols of the age, in contrast we find two modest looking Friends' meeting houses on Manhattan Island: the Orthodox meeting house, in East Twentieth street, built in 1858 with pews more than a century old, and the Hicksite meeting house, built in IS3O, with a school house attached by a modern fireproof bridge at East Fifteenth street and Rutherford Place. Together their congregations muster about 500 active members in Manhattan with absent members scattered all over the United States. Os late years the stringency of the friends' diclpline has becu relaxed, and the peculiarities of dress and language have been abandoned. In New York the sight of a Friend in the traditional gray of William Penn's time would probably shock even the Friends. But they have held rigidly to their distinctive views, their refusal to take oaths, their disease of the professional ministry and their recognition of woman’s part in the services. Though small in number, the Gotham Friends occupy a position of singular importance, exhibiting without blare of trumpets a form of Christianity widely divergent from the prevalent type, and in their soft-pedal way and ail-the-charity-they-can afford projects really do exercise an Influence beyond the borders of their own society. Dr. James A. Hamilton, commissioner of the department of correction of New York City, has reached some definite conclusions with respect to drug addicts. In the light of the crime wave which is sweeping over many of the large cities of the country, and is now filling the columns of the metropolitan press with rob-

beries, murders and hold-ups, his views are of moment. He prepared the statement for this column: “Drug addiction is not a disease, but a pernicious habit; and drug addicts are much the same in prison as out of prison. They are all the same wherever you find them when they are being taken off the drug—mens, contemptible, selfish and as arrogant as conditions both inside and outside the Institutions will permit them to be. “The public hospitals in the city of New York treated addicts with a treatment at that time that was supposed to be of the most humane method of handling those people. It was not a failure, so far as the treatment was concerned. The Inmates were relieved of their drug addiction and it was demonstrated to them that they were able to live better without the drug than with it. It was a failure in this respect: The public officials became disgusted with the drug addict and his arrogance, which seems to have been fostered by the wails of sentimentalists, who preached ‘the unfortunate drug addict’ and developed for him a sympathy far beyond his deserts. “The treatment of drug addiction Is bound to fail in public hospitals unless some custodial power is given to officials of the institutions, and until the public in general renlizes the true conditions of drug addicts and treats them as they properly deserve, but as long as drug addicts are permitted and encouraged by people who create wrong impressions to make a bedlam of hospitals, just so long will the treatment cf drug - addiction in institutions other than penal be a failure. “The last few years have been fruitful as far as the study of drug addiction is concerned. We know now that the hospital equipment need not be so elaborate. Drug addiction, ns viewed by the medical profession, is not a disease as they recognize disease, but a habit, tha symptoms present being a result of the inhibitory action of the drug on the functions of the organs. “Drug addiction Is a most pernicious, degrading and degenerating practice, and if persisted in, no drug addict falls to become degenate physically, mentally and morally. As far as being statistically a criminal, it is my opinion that every drug addict is a potential criminal. The lack of criminal acts in the so-called respectable drug addict results from his ability to obtain the drug. Let him he deprived of the drug by lack of funds or opportunity, and you will find a criminal who will stop at nothing to obtain his supply. “We know of no drng addict who Is Innocent. All eontlnne the degenerating vice wilfully, the majority refusing to be cured and their real criminal stntns is often only a matter of a few dollars. It is remarkable that while some persons are so Interested to keep the so-called respectable, innocent drug addicts away from the criminal, the criminal is Just as anxlotts to be kept away from the contemptible 'hophead' or *cokte,' as they call them. “It is a noteworthy fact that inmates of a prison locate a man’s trne character quicker than all the social workers, parole officers, judges and even psychologists. The criminals in prison do not agree that the drug abdicts may beComo contaminated by association with them; but they shun the drug addict as one not fit with whom to associate. There is not in any treatment anything which prevents a recurrence. All treatments simply fake the addict off the drug, and it is purely a matter of self-control whether he returns to the habit or not. All debates or discussions relative t<f the control of drug addiction, sooner or later become acrimonious disputes between medical men as to the merits of their respective treatment. In this way the doctors have unintentionally befuddled the real issue, which Is not treatment, but the prevention of drng abdictlon. Drug addiction will never be eradicated by treatment. Prevent the drug addict from getting the ‘stuff,' arid there will be no necessity to worry about what kind of treatment is the proper one."

What Radio Wave Length Means DAILY RADIO FEATURES

RADIO PRIMER

TUNGSTEN—A metal use In the manufacture of radio grids, filaments and other articles of radio equipment. It is a bright steel-gray, hard, brittle, crystalline substance. It Is malleable and ductile. Filaments are made of drawn tungsten wire. Besides Its use in radio apparatus, tungsten Is much used In the manufacture of incandescent light filaments. BY R. L. DUNCAN, Director Radio Institute of America. Before we go any further with the erection of larger receiving sets, some explaination should be made about transmitting. How are the dots and dashes, lectures and concerts wafted through the air? We know that most broadcasting is done on a 800-meter wave length. We know shops and commercial stations have a normal transmitting length of 000 meters. But what is this wave length? What has It to do with radio? The flow of electric current in any circuit is accompanied by the existence of interlinked magnetic and static fields which surround the conductors carrying the current and extend throughout space. Whenever the direction of current flow In the circuit is reversed these fields reverse themselves also. LIKE WATER RIPPLES. This reversal does not take place throughout space Instantaneously. The phenomenon Is somewhat similar to the ripples on the surface of the water when a pebble Is thrown In. The disturbance gradually propagates itself at a uniform speed, keeping its shape and characteristic until it dies due to friction losses. This reversal in the electric field propagates Itself In much the same way. On account of the similarity to ripples in the water, this phenomenon is called an electromagnetic wave. Such waves, however, travel outward not only iu one plane, but they radiate Into space through the ether. WAVE SERIES. If a frequently reversed current is sent through a circuit, the Interlinked

THE MAN YOU LL LOVE TO HATE Tells Hoic It Feels to He Hated

By ERICH VON STROHEIM. Star of “Foolish Wives.’’ I am “The Beast!” Sometimes I wonder whether to laugh or cry. The more people hate me, the more money I make—but I often question whether the money's worth it. I think I earn my money harder than any other man; I capitalize public abhorrence. That’s what I'm getting paid for. They call me “the man you'll love to hate.” I'm Just a simple, lnofferslve fellow who tries to conscientiously to do Ms best in acting unpleasant parts. Perhaps it's because I try to do it with i subtlety, and don't do It in an artificial i manner, that they confuse the part I play j with the man I am. However that may be, they do it. I don’t mind being hated j on the screen, but It's mighty tough to j be hated off it; after hours, wheu one longs for human companionship and i gets Instead unadultercd, Simon pure hate from practically all with whom one 1 come* In contact. EXAMPLE OF WHAT lIF. SUPPLIES DAILY. Here are a few incidents—a few ont of so many I can't recommend them, but only feel the 6tlng of their accumulated venom. One night dnrlng a trip to New York. I dined at the “L'Aislon,” a popular French restaurant, with my wife and several friends At the next table sat two couples, and presently one of the girls recognized me. They whispered together for a minute, then one of them demanded loudly enough for my party to hear. "Do we have to dine at the next table to that beast?” They paid their hilts adn left their unfinished meal. Os course, we were terribly embarrassed. One day I was riding in a street car. when a woman and small girl boarded it an! sat opposite me.. The littel girl looked at me for a moment. "Look, mamma.” she observed “There's that bnd man that threw the baby out of the window?” And I love children too? A friend of mine whs discussing me with a woman friend once, and remarked, that 1 went to her church. “H® goes there," she answered, “but he doesn't belong there!’’ They won't even let me go to their churches, and if 1 didn't go to church, they'd lay that up against me, too. HE CAN'T SHAKE OFF THE BnOP. I can’t take off the uniform, cap, sword, monocle, perfume-bebind-the-ears and other accoutrements of warfare, and be human after the day’s work is over. I'm still the beast —not fit to mingle with people or go to their churches; not fit for the companionship of women or little children—the loneliest man in the world. Why ? Other villains of the screen don’t gpt the same treatment. When ray friend, Lon Chaney, enters a public place, the people look at him with respect. “There’s Lon Chaney,’’ they say. “He’s a great actor and wonderful villain. Remember him in “Ttij Penalty'’ or “The Miracle Man?" But when I come in they say, “Here comes Yon Stroheim—that beast!” People see the man differently from the actor in other cases—why not in mine? I am Just a quiet inoffensive chap who trios to do his best by his family and do his best by his employer. I play the part of a villain —someone has to, but when I end the day's work on the picture lot the character of the play dies with the whistle that blows “quitting time." People here didn't hate me in this old days in San Francisco and Oakland, or when I was a guide on Tamalpaid, when they saw only Von Stroheim, and not tho parts In' has since played. I was married here and I lived among the people just as any one else. X am no different now from then. Still—now they hate me. Men hate me more than women—per-

Home-Made Amplifier

Fans, here’s a home-made loud speaker you can construct for yourself in two minutes. Lay one of the receivers of your headset on the table, face up. On this place any kind of a toy tin horn, hollow throughout. Now, unscrew the electric light bulb from your table light and place the reflector over the horn. Now, tune In and listen! magnetic and static fields will alternately reverse at the same frequency. This constitutes a scries of waves progressing from the current-carrying circuit outward Into space In all directions. The length of these waves radiated Is measured by the distance between two consecutive points at which the electric field has the same aplitude and direction. The radio transmitting sets emit these electromagnetic waves Into space. But tuning our receiving instruments to catch their pitch or wave length we are able to pull their messages out of the air.

Who knows? It’s male against male—one male resenting in the other whatever attraction for the opposite sex that the other may seem to exercise. They see the Russian officer in his conquests—and they grit their teeth and rage and forget that he's no real officer and no real villian—but only poor old Erich Von Stroheim, perspiring under Cooper Hewitt lights, to make a living for himself and family.

PUSS IN BOOTS, JR. By DAVID COKY. —' “If you are to be a gentleman, as I suppose you’ll be. You’ll neither laugh nor smile for a tickling of the knee.” Puss Junior tried his best, but he couldn't keep from laughing. And then the little girl laughed too. She was the same little girl who had written him the “sneezing letter" for Wednesday. She and Puss Junior were greait friends. Indeed, he had spent already two days at her house, for her mother liked him. Os course she did. for everybody liked him. T’m sure. And I guess if you had met him, you'd like him even more. I'm not goir, to tell whether I have or not; but you can see for yourself that I know a lot abont him. Maybe he told me some of his adventures. But all nice visits must come to an end, and so, of course, Puss Junior had to say good-by. The little girl cried, which made him very sorry, but her mother gave Mm a little ring, which made him very glad, and oft he went upon Ms journey. He whistled a gay little' tune and swxrag his paws, for he felt very fine, did Puss in Boots Junior, the great traveler. And pretty soon he came across a funny sight. “There was a piper had a row, And he had naught to give her; He pulled out his pipe and played her a tune. And bade the cow consider. “The cow considered very well. And gave the piper a penny, And bade him play the other ton*— ‘Corn ricks are bonny.’ ° '•But there are no corn ricks," said the piper, “except those in the farmyards, and I can't lead you there, for they wouldn’t let you eat corn.” “I'll help you out, my good man,” cried Puss Junior. “I know the farmer over yonder. Bring your cow along and she shall have a good meal, and you may spend your penny In the farm kitchen; the doughnuts there are fine, for I have eaten them myself.’ The cow looked very grateful and In a short time she and the piper were eating away to their heart’s content, while Puss went merrily on his way.—Copyright, 1922.
