flOWS TEN HUES FOR AID; MONARCH WINS DECORATION

Former Richmondian Fought Elements to Reach Shore With Word of Distress. McKlneey Vooaroh, son of Mr. and Mrs. IL U Monarch, now of Pittsburgh, but formerly of this city, baa returned to Richmond after two years' naval serrle as an ensign and with a citation Cor the Dlatlngn toned 8errice Cross. The Distinguished Serrloe Cross Is given only tor an act of extraordinary bravery, which la so hazardous that It is not asked by Uncle Sam In the regular line of duty but tor which service must be Tohmteered. Monarch won the decoration by going ten miles in a 15-foot open boat through an lce-corered sea off the Delaware capes a year ago in February, with the thermometer eight below zero, to bring word to shore of the plight of his ship, the U. S. S. Victor, with twenty-elz men aboard, which was on fire and sinking after the exftlosion of an 1100 gallon tank of gasoIne. Victor Small 8hlp "We had been out on a thirty-mile coast patrol, and had come back to within 10 miles of land," said Monarch. "The Victor Is a sub-chaser, a small ship, and was alone on the sea, because the coast-wise traffic was entirely stopped by ice. We had no wireless, and no other way of communication with land. "When the explosion occurred, the Victor was helpless. The flames burned through the hull in three places, and the only thing to do was to try to get help from shore. Subchasers do not carry life boats, and the only way to get help was for some one to try to get to shore in the only boat we had. a 15-foot open one. Two other men volunteered with me, and we started. "The Ice was constantly threatening, and we had to push it off with boathooks. Great blocks half as large as a city block, and .six to eight feet high, and many smaller blocks, drifted by many times, 'nearly capsizing us. " Kept Warm by Rowing. "The other two men rowed, and kept warm that way, but I, the coxwaln was frozen unconscious by the time we reached land, having no exercise except that of steering. The boat ran up to the shore, but when the other two started to fasten it, the frozen rope broke, and I drifted away to sea again. "The boat capsized in the third line of breakers and I was thrown out into the waves. In some way my leg was crushed in five places, and of course I was frozen hands and feet. It was five months before I got out of the hospital. , "Secretary Daniels sent me a mighty nice letter of commendation last January, and three weeks ago I received notice saying I had been cited for the Distinguished Service cross. The decoration will be given after the peace treaty is signed." Monarch is to engage in business with the Great Eastern Mills at Pittsburgh. He received his discharge last SAurday. U.S. NAVY.

There are millions of families in the United States which may be unable to keep a cow who could get their milk from a family goat good rich milk at a very low cost. The Goat Is a Poor Man's Cow. "The fact that the goat can be kept where it would be lmpossllKe to keep a cow is beginning to appeal to many people, especially those living In the small towns and suburbs ot large cities. Our foreign-born citizen have long appreciated that the goat will furnish much of the living for the family. "There are Quite a number of places In America where goats are profitably raised to furnish milk for sanitariums and for delicate Infants; also for canning. "A doe that produces three pints a day is considered only a fair milker; two quarts, good; and three quarts, excellent; provided the lactation period is maintained from seven to ten months.

The principal source ol the bad flavor and odor Is dirt ana hair which fall Into the milk from the body of the animaL But keep the buck away from the milk. His pungent odor Is often to blame. He should never be kept with the nannies. "The Government has several books on goats which may be had for. the asking. If you want to buy a goat, write to F. R. Marshall, Bureau of Animal Industry, Washington, and he will send you the addresses of the main herds of the country. Unregistered does are worth from $30 to $70 registered of the best class from $100 to $250. Young kids are cheap and easy to rais, "The goat will thrive on and relish feed which the cow would spurn; but it would be much better to feed goats for milk the same as we do our cows. The waste from the kitchen and table furnishes a great deal of her main': tenance, but this food, particularly in the backyards of suburban homes, should be supplemented by a well balanced by-product feed. "There should be a goat club In every Farm Bureau. There should be a few goats on every farm. A good buck should be located with an experienced breeder and arrangements made by the members of the entire club for his services. "The summer colonist can solve the milk problem for his babies by buying a fresh goat In the spring, then turning it over to some neighboring farmer In the fall, to keep and breed again the next spring. It is stated that goat's milk Is free from tuberculosis. There is a profit In good goats, because the milk is always high in price and there is a ready demand for the young. They are very prolific."

NEW ARMISTICE WITH HUNGARY INCOMPLETE (By Associated Press) BUDAPEST, April 8 While General Jan Christian Smuts, who was sent

here by the peace conference at Paris, had authority to arrange a new armistice between Hungary and the-entente powers, it appears that he did not do so before his departure this morning. British residents of the city will leave for Paris by way of Vienna on Saturday. With them will go the American wives of Hungarians who will be permitted to take with them their money and effects. The government Beems to be doing everything possible in favor of Americans and other foreigners. Great earnestness is displayed by the members of the new government in carrying out the work assigned to them. They are ready to discuss their plans and to solve problems and they refrain from abusing capitalism. The maintenance of strict discipline to protect the Bourgeois and to prevent red guard outbreaks has been decided upon by the government. Jules Alpari, a prominent communist, and Jules Severest, people's commissioner in charge of socialization of factories, argue that communism is the only method by which Central Europe can be saved from total ruin. Capitalism, they maintain, is unable to cope with the threat of bankruptcy, high wages and the unwillingness of laborers to work. They point out that under communism workmen cannot strike and are obliged to accept a reasonable wage. U. S. May Get Title to Islands Off Nicarauga (By Associated Press) PANAMA, April 8. The recent rumor that the United States might obtain title to the Islands of St. Andrews and Old Providence in the Caribbean off the Nicaraugan coast had its origin in the unofficially expressed wish of Hoffman Philip, United States minister at Bogota, that the islands might be leased, according to a state ment made by Santiago Herras, fiscal agent of Colombia, while visiting the islands recently. He said that no such action has been taken as yet and that nothing could be done until the Colombian congress revises the constitution which forbids the alienation of national possessions. St. Andrews and Old Providence islands lie in the Caribbean to the north-northeast of Colon, the Atlantic terminus of the Panama canal. Some time ago there was a report that the United States might secure the islands from Colombia and fortify them as defenses for the canal. The islands which include a number of small cays are quite fertile and in 1900 had a population of three thousand.

HINDU NATIONALIST SPEAKS BEFORE MEETING OF ROTARY CLUB TODAY

The condition or India under the administration of the British Empire was discussed at the Rotary club at the Yvrestcott hotel Tuesday noon by Dr. N. S, Hardiker, executive secretary of the India Home Rule league in the United States. Dr. Hardiker, a native of India spoke on "Self Determination for India." He explained the present administration of India, stating that England enacts the laws for India with the help of the Indian council, on which there are only three natives of India. Dr. Hardiker stated that the Indians want to rule themselves. "We want such an administration in India as the Philippines had. The British rule has affected the material and moral prosperity of India. After 162 vears of rule England has not been able to reduce the illiteracy of India. Ninety-four per cent of the population of India is illiterate. Out of a population of 315,000,000 there are 295,000,000 who neither read nor write. The annual income of every person in India is $9.50. while in the United States it is $372. Out of that amount $1.60 in taxes is paid to the British government. This accounts for the disease, famine and illiteracy that prevails in India. Famine has been devastating the land and no adequate preventative has been found for them. Free and compulsory educa tion has been denied to the people of India, although they have persistently asked for it. The government says that the people of India are not fit to be educated and when we ask for home rule the British government says we are not educated. They slap us this way and they slap us that way. In India there is one school to every six or seven villages, or there are 388 schools to a population or 000,000. High Death Rate. "The people of India do not have one half a complete meal a day. the death rate in India is 32 per thousand whereas in the United States with a population of 100,000,000, the death rate is 14 per thousand. During October and November of 1918 there were 3,000,000 deaths in India from influenza. "India used to be a great industrial country. She is no longer. Some of the implements being used are 2,000 years old. Scientific methods of farm ing have not been introduced even though 72 per cent of the population is agricultural. India must depend on other nations for the ordinary necessities of life because the industries have ben so neglected and undeveloped. "If we fought in the world war for democracy to make the world safe to live in why cannot those principles be applied to India. We are willing to stay in the British Commonwealth but we want home rule. If England does not give us Home Rule I do not know what will happen. There is great danger ahead of India and she will be wiped off the earth if she is not helped. India contributed 1,100,000 men and 77,000,000 pounds to liberate Poland, Armenia, Mesopotamia, and Palestine and she herself is still in chains. All of our army that we sent to fight was illiterate. The British Empire trained men in England and the funds were taken out of the Indian treasury. We have not money for education. "The caste system does not account for any of this. "India must have Home Rule. The United States gave it to the Philippines and England must give it to us." To Address Polity Club.

party is becoming strong In India and all educated Indians are working toward Home Rule for India. He said that India welcomes the League of Nations providing she and Ireland can be represented in the League. Dr. Hardiker will address the Polity club at Earlham college at 7:30 oclock tonight. His talk will be of great interest. About 65 members of the Rotary club attended the meeting. At the next meeting a change fn the constitution making the annual meeting and election of officers the last Tuesday In April instead of the first Tuesday in June, will be voted upon. Letters to this effect have been mailed to every Rotarian. Guests of the club were P. C. Mol-

ter, head of the vocational training in the Richmond schools and Mr. Lansing of Evansville. Howard A. Dill urged the support of the club for the "Own a Home" movement which will be launched at a luncheon next Thursday noon at the Y. M. C. A.

BANK SENDS OUT WARNING AGAINST WILD-CAT STOCKS

Mathews Advises Prospective Investors to Investigate Purchases Before Buying. i A warning to Richmond people who., have been approached by out-of-town stock salesmen with glittering propo-' sltions which promise sudden wealth; In return for Liberty bonds or other' hard-earned savings was issued Tuesday by A. G. Mathews, vice-president' of the Second National bank. While not all of these stocks are worthless, many of them are, said Mat-' hews, and he earnestly advised persons! approached by salesmen with out-of-town propositions to consult any bank-; er in town, before making an Invest-' ment. "I am sure, from the number of reports which we have had, that there are many salesmen of stock in unknown concerns which may or may not be valid, operating in Richmond,' and many people have been approached by them," said Mathews. "While it would, of course, be unfair to say that all these propositions are not what they appear to be, the way -to be sure is to consult your, banker. Any banker in town is only too glad to advise you, and if necessary, to write to the home town of the. firm -which has approached you, an1& find out for you if it Is to be trusted. "A young school teacher, only one of many small salaried people, who has been approached, came in here the other day and asked about a proposition in which she had been interested by a stock salesman. "We wrote at once to the company's' home town and learned that the proposition was entirely untrustworthy.and so advised her. Had she not come in to us, she probably would havv invested, and in a short time would have been regretting the loss of all, her savings. "If you are not a habitual investor, and are not familiar with Btocks, be' careful! Don't part with your money on promises. You have the services of the financial experts of the town. who are glad to help you as a matter of public citizenship and city pride. "I do not mean to Fay that these firms are dishonest, even those which are bad investments, but I do Bay that they may be unsound. They may be just starting. They may base their stock sales on mines which have barely been started, or for many other reasons they are sure losers. "Consult your banker. His advice is free, and it represents the best of the conservative financial opinion in town. Above all, don't part with your Liberty bonds or other government investments to buy out-of-town stocks before you are sure of your Investment" HEARING POSTPONED (By Associated Press CHICAGO, April 8.
