ENTERTAINED AT HARBOR During his stay Frof. Fupin was en- ! tertained at a special dinner arrang1 ed at the "home of Sam Vujnovich. of t Indiana Harbor and George Kapaich ( two members of the executive board ! cf the federation. He was open in j his discussion on the policy of th foreign born people. and especially did he talk on the immigration laws. Americanism and the labor situation a? :t now stands. "I came to Lake county as an American." he said, "and I owe America j everything. For the good of this country :n w hich I am greatly inter- ! ested I am talking in behalf of the : millions of the foreign born. You see. I have been instructing classes , for so long that I can not git out of my teacher-like attitude." DISCl'SMiS INDfSTRY HEIIE Pushing his chair back from the ta- i b'e at the home of Mr. Vujnovich, he : began to discuss the qui-stmns frankly and openly. First he complimented on the growth of Lake county industry. stating that within 21 or 25 year. . Chicago w,ll be the largest city on the ' world, and will include in Us fold all , the neighboring industrial cities.; "But," he said, "you people must not bo satisfied with your conditions. You will have to build on rock and build strong . You're provincial yet, and n be so fcr the next tw enty or twenty-five years. You have few big town ways, and many big town men. but it w ii! be lng time yet before you reach th zenith. For as soon as you reach th full growth the things w ill start I to decline." HAS DECIDED MEWS The professor has very decided views on the labor question, the immigration problem, and in fact every matter con fronting the American public. During the time when the drastic new immigration laws were being formulated by the United Stated government, excluding the foreigners who could not rear nor.wrlte, Trof. Pupin was called to Washington to give his views on the subject. "But." he said , yesterday, "that was aH the cood it did. just to give them.

June 22 The heat is becoming intense in Trieste and that may have something to do with the remarkable story telegraphed to the Giornale d'ltalia by its Trieste correspondent . The Trieste correspondent reports that current ideas of hnw the old Emperor Franz Joseph, of AustriaHungary, met his death are all wrong. He says that it all happened this way: The Emperor and the Princess Zita had quarreled for several months because Austria allied herself with Germany in the World War. The quarrel reached a crisis one night in Vienna when the Emperor of Germany was dining with Fram Joseph. In the middle of the dinner the. Princess, becoming exa.sperate.l at some remark made by Kaiser, drew a revolver and attempted to kill him. The bullet missed f.re and the Kaiser, -whipping out a pistol, rhot once himseK" slightly wounding the- rrinces3. Ti.e whole incident was i.ept quiet. bn the next day a o -,:rt bulletin announced tiat the Princess wa3 suffering from a slight ailment. few week.3 later, November 11. 1316, the 5-hnptrc-r Franz Joie.ih was discovered hanging in his benroom. The scandal had been too much for him. All the court officials and hirelings were sworn to secrecy, but the Trieste corresponded of the Giornale d' Italia says he got the story from "unimpeachable sources."

On the morning of June 22. 191S, a shiver of huror swept the country when news spread of the catastrophe in whicn three core employes of the Hagenbach Wallace circus were killed and many ! ' more were maimed for life. j l o.vterday witnessed the end of aj feverish race against time in the of- j rices of Attorney Fred Bar. ett in Ham- ' mond. New suits for damages grow-! ing out of the wreck were to be filed j and the law requires that such suits must be filed within two years of the incident. Stenographers labored over the trirfs which had been printed in duplicate, filling in names and special data. 'Attorneys read and re-read them to guard against errors due to haste.

MeAdoo will "stop at nothing" in their efforts to force his name before the Democratic national convention stood out clearly in a statement issued by Burris Jenkins, editor and publisher of rhe Kansas City Post here today. In his statement he sets forth the following: "Thomas B. Love, national Democratic committeeman from Texas called me oer long distance telephone from Pueblo Monday night while en route to San Francisco and said: " I've traveled west from Kansas City with ih" Alabama delegation and 18 of the 24 delegates favor putting McAdoo in nomination, consent or no consent. The former treasury head, they declare, is the one and only leader with whom the Democrats can feel sure of victory. McAdoo, they ins.st, must be nominated." Similar sentiment continues to pour in from various sections of the country. His name is on everyone's lips. It is inevitable that his name be placed in nomination. "Some one without doubt will put him before the convention. Whether the writer does so or not, the country might just as well understand, first and last. that there is no stopping the attempt to put McAdoo across as the Democratic presidential nominee."

BV WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS (STAfF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE! SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. . June 22 Senator Robert L. Ow en, of Oklahoma, first of the democratic candidates fo; the nomination for the presidency to arrive here today fired his opening broadside. Among the victims of in

j shrapnel were: President Wilson." Republican Nominee Warren G. Harding. The "wets" and the "drys." The supreme court. The republican platform makers. Dealers in the necessities. And then some. SIIOU.DVT BK IN C'AMPAIO.V "I am opposed," he said, his dark eyes snapping, "to the league of nations or liquor being carried into thcampaign as the main points in dispute. The real issue is the high cos: of living. "I favor a plank calling for mnr ratification of the treaty on tei ms acceptable to the majority of the striate. The treaty must be got out of the way at once. "I favor a plank declaring for tic strict cnforctmenl of the eighteen! ': amendment and if the Volstead a. isn't strong enough then I favor t stronger. I think it is sufficient, however," lie added, with a smile, "for a butcher's beefsteak contains more alcohol than is allowed under its provisions . PAYORS FEDERAL CONTROL "I favor federal control by license cf all concerns distributing the necessities of life making it possible for the public to procure what it needs at a fair price. "I oppose a few men. appointed for life, governing this country. I mea'i the supreme court and I say it without apology. It is not the supremcourt's fault, however, but the fau't of congress and the people because neither the one nor the other offers any complaints The constitution doe5 not have to be changed to remedy this. Congress can do it very simply by drawing a line beyond which the supreme court is not to go." , Senator Owen did not mention President Wilson by name. On the other hand he frankly objected to the "Virginia platform" given out by the White house as too verbose in general and too vague in the specific matter of the treaty plank which favored ratification w ithout reservations detrimental to the document as a whole. "Why Senator Lodge himself would accept that." Senator Owen said. His contention all along has been that hi reservations improve the document, rather than injure it." "The democratic platform ought to be short," he went on. "It took nearly thousand words for the republicanto state their beliefs, but the democrats ought to do theirs in one page. Truths can be set forth in few word.-. It is .only when there's something t hide that a lot of words are needed Senator Owen called Senator Harding the "standpatter of standpatters." "Now they are saying he is a Progressive," the Oklahoman remarked, "because they know only a Progressive can win in this election. The work of the republicans at Chicago was fine for the democrats. Their platform and their ticket appreciably add to the chances cf the opposition." Senator Owen intends to go ta the mat with opposing factions of his party. This means a f.ght against the administration forces, under the direct, even if long distance, leadership of President Wilson himself who has repeatedly insisted upon the treaty and league being made the paramount issue of the campaign. It means also that the senator frcm Oklahoma will oppose the attempt of Gov. Edward I. Edwards of New Jersey to make prohibition one of th" issues. In both of these hattles he will have on his side Wm . J. Bryan, now on his way here, admittedly bent upon annihilating the "wets" and blocking, if possible, the Wilsonian clan 'of making the league the chief issue of this year's presidential contest. So a fight hovers in the not distant offing . Latest Census Figures Out INTERNATIONAL NEWS SMVICi WASHINGTON". June 22.
