APPLICATION CAUSES STIR Contention That China Offers Paral lel to What Single Taxers De fclrc Brings Storm of Protests. II. C. rthoff Speaks. Should someone this morning visit the spot on English soil where Robert Thomas Malthus, the philosopher of 600 years ago who propounded the grim theory that population outruns food supply and checks must be provided against births to avoid starvation of the human family, lies burled, he will, un questionably, find the earth disturbed, for without doubt be writhed and turned clear over in his grave. For Saturday night the single taxers at the Central Library opposed his theory vigorously and called it worn out. antiquated and relegated it to the myths of the past. H. C. Uthoff presented the Maithus lan doctrine and was its champion. He said tho population of the globe has doubled in the past 100 years. Apply ing the magic of geometric progress Ion, he estimated that within a com paratively short period of time, as his tory counts it, human beings on earth will reach into the trillions, an incon ceivable number which the world's re : sources could in no way sustain. The checks of war, famine, catastrophes of many kinds and plagues operate, he said, to prove the theory. Regulation of Offxprlng Urged. The food supply, said Mr. Uthoff. can Hot be made to keep up with the normal rate of increase of the human family. ' As a homely illustration he said it is easier to overstock a farm than to pro vide food for the animals. He said the regulation of offspring is necessary, for the greatest misery prevails where there is a high birth rate with a con- gexted population and the contrary is true. What aroused the single taxers so that they attacked Mr. Uthoff's state - merits was his contention that China probably offers as close a parallel to what the eingle taxers desire as can be found in the world today. He said the race is industrious and closely re lated to the land, while not more than 2 per cent of the product of the soil goes to non-producers. Land holdings are small and well divided, it was said jet there is the most dire poverty in the whole world In that country. With a population of 460.000,000, the speaker said, China has reached the point or aturation. If. I). Waenon Assail Theory. Mr. Uthoff said no matter what sys tem of land tenure prevails, single tax system or other, the chief quest today of population for means to bring sus tenance from the land is for nitrates. The supply of this and the distribu tion of railfall are the chief elements, he contended, that lead to food supply. Ho called the Malthuslan theory a basic one in social economy. H. D. Wagnon dubbed the theory worn out. He said 500 years ago, when it was propounded, no living white man had tasted a potato or corn or many other improved means of food supply Ho said China is not overpopulated, for there are great parts of that country that are uninhabited. "The innocent babe in its mother's arms." he said, "is not the guilty one, but the few who are holding tho land out of use are the causes of poverty.' Alfred D. Cridgc attacked Malthus and said the principles of single tax disproved his theory. Rex Lampman . J. B. Ziegler, Miss Christine Herman and tliers also made light of the ancient philosopher and tore his reputation into email ribbons. Instead, they named single tax as the remedy tor wrong conditions.

RENT NOT TO BE PAID JinV KIM OS B. LEE PAGKT'S STATE. MEWS FALSE. Suit Arising Over Hotel Caplcs Results In Question of Veracity Between P. Gevurts and Lawyer. That statements made by B. Lee Paget to W. L. Morgan were false was the declaration made in a verdict re turned by a jury in Circuit Judge Gan tenbein's court Friday. The trial was the suit of Jane Caples against W. L. Morgan for rent of tho Caples Hotel. Mr. Morgan put in a counterclaim and the verdict returned was in his favor. During the trial it was brought out that Mr. Paget, who held some inter est in the Caples Hotel, had induced Mr. Morgan to pay 10 a month a room for the hotel instead of s. which he had been paying. In raising the rent. Mr. Paget told Mr. Morgan that Philip Gevurtz had offered $10 a month a room for the lease of the hotel, and was anxious to get it at that figure. Mr. Paget admitted on the witness stand that he had made this statement to Mr. Morgan, and declared it was true. Mr. Gevurtz was called and denied that he had offered $10 a month a room for the hotel, or that he wanted to lease it at all. At this stage the case became an issue of veracity between Mr. Gevurtz and Mr. Paget. Interrogatories were propounded to the Jury, the first of which was: Were the statements which Mr. Paget made to Mr. Morgan false?" To this the Jury answered "Yes." On the other questions the jury found that Mr. Mor gan would not have consented to the raise in rent if he had not believed Mr. Paget's statement. The jury's verdict awards no direct damages. Mrs. Caples had sued for rent which, admittedly, was due. Mr. Morgan had alleged false promises and representations in rebuttal, stating that the extra $2 a month which hw paid for each room amounted to as much as the rent due. The rental of the hotel at the ad vanced figure amounted to $710 a month. YVoodlawn. Veterans to Attend.

JURORS ASK FOR CLEMENCY Report to Judge Gatens, Accom panying Verdict, Is Protest Against System Permitting Peculiar Appointments. Albin L. Clark was found guilty of altering 126 ballots in Precinct 37 at the November 3 election, when a jury in Circuit Judge Gatens" court returned cfter eight hours of deliberation last night. Clark, whose first trial resulted in a disagreement of the Jury, was chairman of the day election board. Ballot alterations In ravor of Tom M. Word for Sheriff were discovered by the night board, and more were found later during recent proceedings which Mr. Word instituted against Sheriff Hurlburt. The Jurors, In returning the verdict, handed Judge Gatens tbe following let ter: "In conection with this case we, the jury, desire to enter a protest against the system which permits the appoint ment of election officials in the man ner disclosed by the testimony in this case, and we hope the parties who In stigated this -crime will be brought to justice." Court Asked to Be Lenient Several of the jurors personally went to Judge Gatens after the verdict had been read and requested that the Judge exercise leniency in sentencing the de fendant. Clark was indicted jointly with Dan iel B. Culhane. one of the election judges, and James N. Linn, who was employed as a Democratic watcher at the polls. The first trial, before a Jury composed of six Democrats and six Republicans, lasted six days, and the jury stood six to six after 12 hours of debate. Clark's second trial began last Tues flav Rv a. nrocess of elimination. Prosecutors Collier and Hammersly showed that the ballot alterations, all of which were made in favor of Mr. Word, the Democratic candidate for re election to the shrievalty, must have been made during certain hours on November 4. the day following the election. Of the 126 altered ballots, 71 had been discovered by the night election board and thrown out. Fifty-five oth ers were found by the recount board, operating under Circuit Judge Ivava naugh, in Mr.- Word's contest for the office of Mr. Hurlburt. Friday the state dismissed the indict ment against Linn, it having been es tablished that he knew little or noth ing of the ballot frauds. Linn was then called to the stand and gave his testimony "without prejudice, owing to the fact that he was no longer un der indictment- The state refused at the same time to dismiss tne cnarges against Culhane. Ex-Sheriff Word was called to the witness stand by the defense yester day morning to show that there was no connection Detween mm ana Clark. Mr. Word testified simply that he did not know Clark. Clark's conviction rested on a the ory or tne prosecutors as to inw man ner in which the alterations were made. It had been shown that Clark, as chair man, unfolded the ballots and looked over them as soon as he took them out of the box. Then he passed them to Culhane, who read them, folded them again and handed them to W. L. E. Knowles, who strung tnem. une tneory offered by the state was that either Clark or Culhane wielded a pencil and an eraser, one erasing the mark before Mr. Hurlburt's name or that of one of the two other shrievalty candidates, and the other putting a new cross in front of Word's name.

A strong Italian armv ls engaged in crossing the Isonzo River. When this has been accomplished, it is expecteu that the hard struggle will begin. On the right bank of this river Austria lacked a solid fortified base, while on the opposite side, near Goritzra, there is a series of mountains, the highest of which is Monte Santo, with an alti tude of more than 2200 feet, joining to the southeast the Corso chain. A high rocky plateau dominates Trieste by land. On the Corso the Aus trians have the entrenched camps of Sessana and Divaca, which command the whole seacoast on both sides of Trieste. Thus the Austrian troops are in a position to make difficult a land ing by sea or an advance from the frontier. BRESCIA, Italy, via Paris. May 30. Dispatches received here today from the Austrian frontier say that Italian troops with ' a strong contingent of mounted artillery continue to advance north of Idro Lake.

The President's appeal for funds and supplies to relieve the starving popula tion of Mexico, the preparation at the White House of a statement to be com municated to all military leaders in Mexico next Tuesday and arrangements of the American lied cross lor a nus relief scheme are the first steps in a nr. lev which, it . icame known today. President Wilson has had under con sideration for some time, with the ob ject of restoring peace In Mexico. Conditions Declared Worse. The text of the President's forthcom ing statement is an official secret, but from those who advised with him prior to its preparation It Is understood Mr. Wilson will address not only the mili tary leaders rn Mexico, but the Mexi can people and at the same time the people of the United States. He will review in detail the course of events in Mexico since the assassination of Madero and Suares and the usurpation of the Presidency by Huerta. The pronouncement, it is said, will call attention to the fact that the United States Government, by refusing to recognize Huerta. assisting in driv ing him out of power and expected from the victorious constitutionalists the re-establishment of government in Mexico. Nearly a year has passed since Huerta was compelled to resign, but the constitutionalists, the statement will say, have failed in the meantime to restore order, conditions growing worse daily, with no faction apparently possessing the capacity to establish a government. Coarse Xot to Be Specified. In view of these conditions, accord ing to reliable information, the state ment will serve notice that as the situation has grown intolerable to foreigners and the Mexican people ulike. the Mexican chiefs must arrange fnr n earlv solution of the problem. Unless this is forthcoming soon, it will be indicated to the military lead ers in Mexico that some other means may have to be employed to assist the Mexican people. The President does not intend to specify this Government's course for the present. Officials did not deny today that if the Mexican factions failed to compose the situation, there was a possibility of intervention by the United States. It was pointed out, however, that what might have been previously considered BUY HOMES While the first shows progressiveness; the second thought of fam ily and self; the third distinguishes the time s savings to gain a home of your own.
