Patten Bares Oil Bond Deal in "Republican Campaign Fund. J SUES A. PATTEN, veteran Chicago Board of Trade operator, testifying More the senate Teapot Dome inves tigating committee, related bow he on knowingly handled $26,000 of the $200, 000 In Liberty bonds advanced by Har ry f Sinclair to help wipe oat the Re publican national committee's 1020 Presidential campaign deficit. The boadk .were turned over to him In December, 1928, by the late Fred W. tfpham. than treasurer of the Repub lican committee, according to Mr. Pat ten, who declared that while b4 knew nothing at the time of the source of the bonds he did suspect?because he, rather than a bank, had been asked to boy them?that something was wrong. The suspicion became so strong, Mr. Patten, 'continued, that after a trou bled night of thought, he contributed the $25,000 In bonds to the building fond of the Evanston hospital, Mr. Patten's testimony, as well as the Inability of William V. Hodges, present treasurer of the national com mittee, to find any record of a $160,000 contribution by Sinclair In the books turned over by Cpham, strengthened, according to Senator Thomas L. Walsh (Dem? Mont) his own contention that Sinclair's contribution deliberately was concealed and that the bonds were sold to unsuspecting individuals who were credited with gifts in the amount ?f their bond purchases. A CONSPIRACY against organized labor on the part of the courts, railroads and state authorities was charged by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of Amer ica, In testimony before the senate committee Investigating conditions In the central bituminous coal field. Mr. Lewis assailed the railroads on their rate structure; condemned the courts for use of the Injunction Weep on against strikes; scored the use of state police in operations against "peaceful assemblies" of striking or unemployed miners, and shot some barbs at coal interests dominated by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Secre tary of the Treasury Mellon. In reply to a question by Senator Watson, Indiana, as to tfce manner In which congress might aid In remedying conditions of employ Bent and disorganization which had been described by the witness, Mr. Lewis said: "Partly by consolidation of the units of the Industry. Thus you will aid In removing the cut-throat meth ods of competition among the bitumi nous companies.* You will, remove disorganisation Shd fear. You will remove conditions which now lead a coal operator to say: T am In favor of paying an American standard of wages, hut don't tell anybody I said so.' It Is doubtful If the bituminous ? coal Industry pays 1 per cent sfter Its fixed charges are paid. The Industry should be treated as the steel in dustry has been treated." ELIMINATION of pollution and tm l-i provement of the sanitary quality of the water In each of the Great Lakes will be undertaken Immediately as the result of an agreement reached by representatives of the health de partments of eight states. The representatives, meeting hi Gary at the fifth annual convention of the Lake Michigan Sanitation con gress, reached. In a resolution, a "Great Lakes Drainage Basin Agree ment." In which the health depart ments of Minnesota, Illinois. Indiana. Ohio. Pennsylvania, Michigan, and New Tort are pledged to conduct a waited and vigorous campaign to stop ""orKoperatloo by the United States public health service was promised by H. B. Crnhust who was sent from Washington. Doctor King was chosen ' of the committee named ts outline Its plan of action. " % GEN. ALYABO OBBBGON. unop posed candidate Ao.sacceed Prest dont Calleo of Mexico, haa lasnad a statement feclarlng the conference at Havana a faUure and discussing at length the question of Mexican Im migration Into the United States. "It baa been said that the Inferior conditions of Mexico's laborers make them vondeslrabls guests there, and that they go to the United States with the object of propagandising socialistic Ideas," said General Obre gon. "Bat the truth regarding the In spiration of this hill (now before the house and senate committees at Wash ington, seeking to restrict western hemisphere Immigration) Is not yet known.. "Every Mexican laborer In the United States produces more than he consumes, thereby establishing co-op eration both for private and public riches Therefore, there Is no pre text, la the most rudimentary logic, for the restriction of Mexican lmml ... ? M (i nuuu. 'INFORMATION >s to unemployment * Is sought from the secretary of la bor In a resolution adopted by the senate after a two-hour debate with a political tinge. Senator Wagner (Dem., N. Y.), sponsored the resolution and plaeejl the responsibility for present conditions at the door of the Republican ad ministration. He accused President Coolldge of spreading misinformation In his annual message, and mentioned Secretary of Commerce Hoover as be ing responsible also for reports re flecting unwarranted optimism. Senator Wagner said that while fed eral agencies do not compute the ex act number of unemployed through out the United States estimates from private sources show a total of 4,000, 000 men out of work. "I cannot say who furnished the President with this misinformation about high wages and plentiful employment at a time when all the signs and ' all the evidence indicated that wages were drop ping and the ranks of the discon tented were dally being recruited by new armies of the unemployed," Sen ator Wagner said. "But I do know that It was a grave responsibility to lull the congress and the nation Into the belief that conditions were satis factory; Its effect was to lead to con gressional and national Inaction m that the crisis was permitted to be come more acute." CHARLES C. EBERHARDT, United States mini iter at Managua, baa communicated to the government at Nicaragua tbe determination of the United State* government to see that Nicaragua has a fair and free elec tion. Mr. Eberhardt baa Informed the Dlax government that further delay on -the part of the Nlcaraguan legisla ture in passing an adequate election law would compel the United States to take steps ~becessary to see that its obligations In Nicaragua were car ried out IBN BAUD, king and sultan of Najd, officially has declared a holy war against the desert Moslems of Iraq and Transjordlana, British mandate states. This move, coupled with Egypt's rejection of a preferred treaty, has caused Great Britain to slap down tbe lid on Egypt's preten sions to Independence. The Mow takes the fbrm of a note sent to the Egyptian government by Lord Lloyd, British high commissi oner, declaring that It will not tolerate the passing of any tfws by tbe Egyptian parliament which are likely to hamper his ad ministration In Egypt or hinder the British government in Its duty of de fending the interests and security of foreigners. Tbe note Is directed at three recent laws passed by the Egyptian parlia ment. but not yet signed by tbe king. Tbe first permits Egyptians to carry arms; tbe second repeals a law rege lating tbe peMIe snmlly and grant ing practically flea, uncontrolled public meetings, and tbe last deals with tbe methods of aiectioa of vO lage mayors. An these. It to believed, were passed by tbe Egyptian parliament to see how tor Great Britain weald al low the Egyptian Nationalists to go. Tbe peslttoa of King Vagd.to difficult He to a nominee et the British gov ernment and not particularly popular In Egypt, and while ha has to obey the British, who pet him en tbe throne, he has also to maka a ahow' of playing w to the National stall- I meat to the drenrnstancaa.

TUB door to the border has been unlocked for Canadians,In a de cision handed down by the Court of Appeal* reversing a decision of tha federal court of Buffalo. The deci sion eras made In the case of tiro Ca nadians who were arrested on De cember 1, 1927, as they were entering this country without having unex pired consular Immigration visas as required by the Immigration act ef 1924, and by rule 86 of the Depart ment of Labor. The effect of the higher court's decision Is that Cana dians may, without restriction, enter the United States to work or seek em ployment and return to their homes in the evening. FULL return* from the general election in Japan place the bal ance of power between the govern ment and the opposition In the bands of 14 Independents, of whom Ytuukl Tsuruml Is one of the leaders. Mr. Tsuruml la well known In the United States and la known to be friendly to this country. A happy augury for good relation* between Japan and the United States Is seen in this by Mr. Tsuruml's friends In this country. It Is also believed that It will lead to a mote liberal policy on the part of Japan toward China. SENATOR THOMAS WALSH Of Montana, who has been Injected Into the race for the Democratic nom ination for the Presidency by party leaders opposed to Gov. A1 Smith of Hew York, received a setback In his first trial of strength with the New York governor. The scene of the con flict was the Democratic state conven tion In South Dakota. Smith received 433T6 votes to 41*213 for Walsh. South Dakota Republicans Indorsed Prank O. Low dan of Illinois as their Presidential preference without oppo sition. The Iowa Republican convention In structed the seven delegate* at largn for Governor Lowden. The state's twenty-two district delegates, two from each of the eleven congressional districts, were "strongly urged" to cast their votes for Lowden. Under the rules only the delegates at 'large can be Instructed by the state conven tion.

I An interesting note on government reports on the fleets of the world. Jest Issued, shows Great Britain still Is vastly superior to any other sea power. At first sight, America and Great Britain appear almost 'equal, but an analysis of the report proves Britain's superiority.

C) IN SARAWAK, an Independent state on the Island of Borneo, It Is possible to observe Jangle peo ple In Tsrloas stages of elrlllsa tion?ranging from tbe shrewd Malay traders of tbe towns to the primitive Punans whose weapon Is the blowgun. Tbe 8ea Da yaks, or Ibana, to nae the native name, are the largest and most progressive tribe. Their love of adventure made them the ready pupils of the piratical Malays In the early dayr; bat since their Initiative has been turned Into useful channels, tbey have shown much capacity for de velopment. They are thrifty and In dustrious, building good houses, wblcb are usually neat and clean. Tbe period of their barVest feasts Is perhaps tbe most Interesting time to visit them. After tbey set aside from the rice crop the portion tbey require for tbe year's food rupply and enough more for trading purposes, tbe remainder Is converted Into a rice wine and feasts are held at one house ufter another. On the morning of tbe feast chickens are killed, rice la scattered about the bouse, and other ceremonies are per formed to propitiate the evil spirits As guests begin to arrive from neigh boring bouses, the gongs are beaten, small brass cannon are tired, If gun powder can be obtained from a white visitor, and live fowls, as a token of good-will and friendship, are waved about over the newly arrived guests Tbe sacrifice of fowls plays an Im portant part In many ceremonies such as that of blood-brotherhood among the Kayans when a man la adopted Into tbe family of another, tie killing of tbe fowl serving an a means of con veying a message to tbe gods Omens From Pigs' Livers At noon tbe most Important event of tbe feast day takes place?pigs are killed and from their Uvers omens for tbe neat year are read. During tbe morning tbe pigs have been decorated with beads and charms charged with mesasgro to the gods and urged to show, by the markings on tha fader aide of tbe liver, what the future baa la stars After tbe pigs are killed tbe 11 vera are extracted and tbe learned asea proceed with their Interpretation at tbe omens As there are always enough pigs so that some of them ate sura to have livers that give good emeus, the feast then begins with great good cboor, tha woifaa bringing out delicious now rice ?brown la color and nutty la flavor? cooked far neat Uttle Individual pack ages made fbom leaves; alae various excellent vegetables from tbe Jungle, such as tbe heart at eeveral of tbe palms as welt as tbe taoder shoots of certain ferns and. finally, slightly roasted pig and partly boded chicken.

Among the Land Dayaks. The'Land Dayakr, aa their name In dlcatea, live Inland, and tbey more fre qnently bolld their houses at a dis tance from the streams than Is the habit with other tribes. Id addition to the Malays, tbey are the native* of Sarawak proper. They are more affected by contact with foreigners and are rather less enterprising and energetic than their neighbors, the 8ea Dayaks, who oc cupy the Ratang l.upar and Rejang rivers to the north. A few Land Dayak villages lo the vicinity of the heudwaters of the Sarawak and Sa dong rivers near the Dutch borrjer re main, however, little affected by for eign Influences. In common with the other tribes of Borneo, their houses are long coite . muual dwellings built oo posts eight or nine feet from the ground, a pas sageway on one side giving access lo the rooms, each of which Is occupied by one family. * Among the dwellers along streams visitors ars always quartered In the -gallery, wblcli forma, on the river side of the long house, a common passage way for entrance to the row of rooms on the other side. As the eaves are low, the gallery Is well protected from the rain and Is really the best pface to sleep.

These people for unknown genera tlona bare lived almost entirely iao lated In the Interior of the Island. There are many reaeons for hellerIng they are of Cancatlc origin, baring entered Borneo from southeastern Asia, where they received Infnsloo of Mongol blood and separated from peo ple" of ibelr own race, wbo were the ' progenitors of the present Karen tribes of Lower Burma. ft appears that the Kayona came to Borneo by the way of Tenasserlm, the Malay peninsula, and Sumatra, later penetrating up the risers of Borneo. One notices the features of some Kayans that rery strongly suggest Oeocasfc origin, thta being particular ly true of the upper or ruling classes, who would be most likely to preserso their racial stock uncooiamlnated by mixture wltb conquered tribes. Kayans and Ptmana. Many Kayans bare rery light skin, particularly those of the Interior and those wbo hare beeo Mule expoeetf to the son. The tribe believes lo a large number of deities, wltb oee supreme being at tba bead, thus resembling the Greek mythology. Many of the do tal la of the metbodi of taking omens atnoog the Kayans by the flight of birds snd the exsmlnstlon of the en trails of animals present extraordinary patntf of similarity with the Roman methods of taking the auspices.

There had been a long lUneaa, which had eateu up their balance and ahe fobnd that college wet out of the question, also'that she mutt go to work. "Poor Polly P ber friends said. "Just aa though I were a green coated, red-beaded parrot!" mid Pol ly.. "I'll take ^ business course and get a position. It ought not to be harder than It was to major In Latin and hold the basket ball champloo ahlp at the same time." She said this, with an assurance she did not feel, to Ellen Smith, fire years older, secretary to the president of the Arilne bank. "Poor Polly P she commiserated. "Well, you bare a good position?" began Polly. "Tea," but It took me years to land, and I bad a pull, too, and always knew I was to earn my tiring. You are young, and "have been sheltered. It will be bard." It was bard for Polly to get up In the gray of the morning, before any beat was coming through the register In l|er north room, breast a search ing north wind for an unsatisfying breakfast, and hurry to claasroomd which were likely to be onalred and sketchlly dusted. She found It bard, even after she bad earned her diploma. "Jobs" there were, but ahe wanted a "position." and Inexperienced girls could not often get them. 8be bad some un pleasant experiences with possible employers who' proved Impossible, capricious or nagging. "I'd give op If I didn't have Orand father Stafford's chin," she told ber Image In the dingy mirror. Finally, at a salary which horrlded Ellen, she found a place In the Na tional Manufacturing company, a firm which handled novelties. "Why, you can never live on that!" remonstrated Ellen. "I lived on less while 1 went to the business college," remarked Polly la conically. . "Polly I Why didn't you tell met" "I started 'on my own' and must keep on. Furthermore, while I any the' newest of twenty-live girls In one big room. I shan't stay there. I hare a system for working up." "But you chose the wrong place, Polly. The office qf Henry it.

If you hare your eye on that place you are choosing a slow and painful suicide." "No, Ellen, I am simply working out a theory." "Too and your theories!" sniffed Ellen.
