Scott of Northwestern University has estimated thut every -man in the country has 175 slaves ; working for him. By this he means that the "spread of me-j chanized power in this country has been so great that for . each man there is available a mechanical force equivalent to ' "that of 175 bondsmen of pre-Civil war days. His calculation 'js interesting. . The tremendous use of power and machinery 'uccoimt in large part for America's great prosperity today. : The 175 slaves apiece thnt work for us may be invisible; but they are highly important. The Country could never have; tttained its present greatness on a' hand-labor basis. I . The Pulitzer literary prizes are not the only ones given Wilder slightly ambiguous terms. At the University of Wis . cousin there is the Kenneth Sterling Day award which is be stowed annually upon the student who is. of the "gi-eastest Christian worth" to the university. The other day that ywiiid was given to an orthodox Jew; a student of high schol astic standing, of high a(J)letic rank, a leader of fine moral character, a participant in many school activities. He met the requirements' of the award "moral character, capacity to execute practical details necessary to operation of religious forces, capacity to influence student life for good, and concern U'f their physical well-being" and no doubt deserved, the honor. Those responsible for bestowing it showed their own breadth of ideals and their broad-minded attitude toward rc-, ligion. ' , ' l UTTERING THE STREETS ; Just as American cities were beginning to master the art of street-cleaning, and priding themselves on keeping their streets neat, orderly and sanitary,. came n new' vogue for lit tering them up again. : New York started the fashion with its ticker-tape parties in honor of distinguished guests. It became the regular thing to shower tape out of the skyscraper windows whenever , a big parade passed. Confetti was mingled with the tape hhower, and it was a natural development for the throwers) ' when they ran short, to make their own confetti from news-' papers, magazines, telephone directories' and lxoks. Any thing in the nature of paper served the purpose. And since this was the metropolitan fashion, other cities began taking it up. Soon it may be an established national custom. This gives grown-up citizens a good tmie. Like babies playing on the floor, they take pleasure in tearing up paper j.nd throwing it around. H is a restful and refreshing pas-1 time for the infantile or the weary-minded. Mental pathol-1 Ogists sometimes recommend it for patients. '. Hut it does make work for the white-wings. On one oc casion recently, the welcome to the liremcn aviators, the New York street cleaning department had to gather up and cart away 1,500 tons of paper, at a cost of many thousand dollars. Are all of our cities destined for such orgies of disorderliness ? And what will be the effect on children, when grown-ups net so?

Mastcrson mailed the key to the hotel room jln which Mrs. Marjorle Stoy of Aberdeen, Wash., was shot to death Tuesday morning was upset today , when Amedeo Zancolll, proprietor I of the Portland custom garment Jconipany, reported to the police i that he found the key and placed It in a mail box Tuesday. j Zancolll found the key. at 6 a. m. .Tuesday at the corner of Broadway land Burnslde, several blocks from the Heath man hotel, where the ; killing occurred in Masterson's room. Zancollt placed It In a mall ibox at C p. m the same day, at ;the corner of Sixth and Ankeney and paid no more attention to the matu-r until be noticed a newspa ' per report concerning the return of the key. em army had collapsed along the Peking-Hankow railway and that the Nationalists might occupy Pek ing within five days. While foreigners in Peking- prob ably will not be endangered, It was thought that the majority would leave within the next 48 hours be cause of the danger of the defeated northern troops. 1 POWER WORK IN SCHOOLS QUESTIONED (Continued from Page 1) replied affirmatively. lewis identified checks for pay ments to the "Colorado Advocate" Which toe described as a weekly paper published In Denver, nnd said this was for advertising- Ohnng Tso-Tin, until the recent Notorious drives of the National ists from the south, was the most powerful war lord In China and was dictator of the northern gov ernment. Former Bandit Iader Chang, who Is about 53 years of age, first came into prominence ns a bandit leader in Northern Man churia. Ho fought for the Jap anese for the Japan-Russo in 1!06 and then joined the Chinese In 1911. As Jhe central government at Peking weakened, Chang became more ' and more Independent and after varying fortunes, he decisive ly defeated Wu Pel-Fu in 1925 but was betrayed hy Feng Yu-Hsiang. now a nationalist ally, who seized Peking. Feng, however, did not last long in Peking and In the spring of 1926 was overthrown by a combination consisting of Wu Pei-Fu and Chang Tso-Lin. Wu Pel-Fu since then was steadily losing ground and now Is virtually out of the picture, while Chang took Peking and has exer cised dictatorial powers there ever since.

Four special trains left the northern capital for Mukdoden last night and another four went out tonight. An official of the Japanese lega tion stated today that all the pow ers In Peking are cooperating for the defense of the concessions with a view to holding a line of defense near the boundaries. - If a disor derly mob should advance toward the concessions, the foreign troops may go out further to meet them and to establish a defense line. I Is understood that the fif teenth American Infantry will co operate with the other foreign troops in the defense of the con cessions but that the 'American marines can be used only with hi the foreign settlement. There are approximately 12,000 foreign troops In Peking. Japan having 5.000. the Vnlted States. 3,700.
