Apart from the romance that naturally attaches to speaking over such vast distances of| water and land, many of these conâ€"| versations â€" are . doubtless prosa'u:‘ enough. But others are so novel that the parties involved have been glmdil to tell of them. I A new dance was all the rage on | Broadway and British followers of a‘ London dancing teacher insisted that | they must learn its steps at once. He| explained the situation to a Manhatâ€" tan colleague. The latter, securingi a soap box, an assistant and a talkâ€" ing machine, inaugurated a brand new use of the transoceanic service. Startâ€" ing the music, he counted out and exâ€" “sluned the steps over the telephone hile his assistant stamped them out on the soap box. Soon the new dance was all the rage in London‘s night clubs as well as along the Great White: Way. providéd for and future needs antiâ€" erpated. The cil industry must be protected and allowed to operate efâ€" fectively and profitably." from shale and lignite deposits. The senator said that no one was able to predict the end of the oil fields, expiaining that at present only 20 per cent of the oil in the fields could be extracted. He said that more efficient methods of extracting oil He pointed out that such control would be unconstitutional, and warnâ€" ed that petroleum supplies must be handled in a businesslike and efficiâ€" ent manner in order that ample proâ€" duction may be maintained; that vast oil shale and lignite deposits must be developed and processes for their reduction perfected, in order that necâ€" essary supplies of oil and gasoline will not be lacking during a possible interim between the exhaustion of Senator Oddie of Nevada, chairâ€" man of the Senate Mines committee, addressing the American‘ Mining congress, expressed opposition to fedâ€" eral control of oil production. In business, where the transâ€" atlantic telephone is particularly useâ€" ful, every variety of transaction has been completed. Angloâ€"American musicians have alâ€" so utilized the circuit. A new song was sung into the United States end of the radiophone. In London a band master and a group of his friends were listening, busily taking down words and harmonies. Twentyâ€"five minutes later, the cast of the Variety theater began rehearsing the melody from overseas. 6 AGAINST OIL CONTROL Chairman of Senate Mines Comâ€" mittee Opposes Federal Interference Sporting circles already know the service. A Scotch flyweight boxer, who holds the European title, made arrangements to talk with the office of one of the great London dailies immediately after his bout in New York to decide the world‘s championâ€" NEVADA SENATOR IS Another transoceanic talker had reâ€" cently been under the care of a noted physician in@Baris. After his return to New Orleans a relapse set in and it was imperative to consult the specâ€" ialist again. The French doctor was asked to telephone him and discuss the case. The doctor took the first train to London. There communicaâ€" tion with New Orleans was establishâ€" ed, patient and physician conversed, and a remedy was suggested. The Parisian doctor has since learned of the complete success of his long disâ€" tance treatment. Butcher, baker, ‘candlestick maker and all others in all walks of life are But sometimes they don‘t want to send grectings; they want to find out something. Lillian Gish, the film star, was in that mood. She wonderâ€" ed when her equally noted sister, Dorâ€" othy, would come home. Picking up the telephone in California, she sped her question to London, almost 7,000 miles away. Dorothy told her she would be starting home within the month. Send Flowers Then there are the florists. A group of British dealers decided to dispatch their best wishes to Mrs. Coolidge. Being in the business, it seemed natural to say it with flowers â€"and immediately. So they telephonâ€" ed their American associates. That same day a beautiful basket of roses was delivered to the first lady of the land in Washington.

This reservoir, about six ; miles southwest of Pendleton, Ore., | will â€"provide a good resting place for | waterfowl, even though the refuge itâ€" | self is not a specially good feeding "Virtually all authorities on the subject of immigration are now | agreed that we must extend the quota | system to Mexico and to the counâ€" , tries of Central and South America. | The number of Mexican immigrants |admitted in 1914 was only 14.614. | The annual immigration. now about j 60,000, is larger than that from any other country except Canada, notâ€" j withstanding the fact that it is highâ€" | ly undesirable. It is largely composed |of Indians or persons of a mixed }rnce. who are rapidly developing a 'n&w race problem. Not only is this Mexican immigration unassimilable, | but it lowers our standards of living 1 and already is beginning to flood our | penal and charitable institutions. for grazing, and to any other valid existing right. ground. There are excellent fe«iin; grounds in the adjacent region, howâ€" ever. The lands themseives included in the refuge are under the jurisdicâ€" tion of the Department of the Inteâ€" rior for reclamation project purposes, and the reservation of them as a bird refuge is subject to the use thereoef by that department, including leasing This Is Rediculous "We did not limit immigration from Europe in order to substitute other races impossibly alien in charâ€" acter and tradition, nor can we raise our standards of living and citizenâ€" ship by that process. We must conâ€" tinue our progressive policy of capiâ€" talistic _ methods _ of _ production through the use of laborâ€"saving maâ€" chinery and a better coâ€"ordination of industrial units. To do otherwise would be fatal to our present indusâ€" trial prosperity. â€" Furthermore, as the San Francisco Chronicle has pul it, to ‘shut down on Angloâ€"Saxons and to continue to admit peons from Mexico is ridiculous‘." o. i oo IMMIGRATION IS PROBLEM Asserting that control of immiâ€" grants is the most important subâ€" ject in American politics today, Proâ€" fessor Roy L. Garis, of the Ecoâ€" nomics department of Vanderbilt uniâ€" versity, in the first number of the new Scribner‘s Magazine, declares in favor of passage of a deportation law and of placing immigration from Mexico and South America under the quota. Writer Says Ridiculous to Keep Out the Angioâ€"Saxons and Professor Garis‘ article in Scribâ€" ner‘s in 1922 is said to have mad much influence in the passage of subâ€" sequent immigration legislation. Deporting Aliens "Aliens are being deporte(i at the average rate of 1,000 each month," writes Mr. Garis. "During the past fiscal year 5.464 were deported for entry without proper visas. Nine hundred and fiftyâ€"three criminals, 992 at poorhouses. Three dlslrifls! were not included in the report! The | existence of such a situation would | certainly seem to justify the passage | of the deportation.bill and the apâ€"| propriation of suflicient money to | make it effective. Thus only can we‘ secure the full benefits of our deâ€"} strictive policy. 1 708 illiterates, 594 insane, and 569 likely to become a public charge were likewise deported. How inadequate this is is evident from a recent reâ€" port of the Department of Labor which stated that 41.692 aliens were listed at penitentiaries, jails, etc.; 36,785 at insane asylums; 14,204 at hospitals and sanitariums; and 15,â€" NEW BIRD REFUGE CREATED IN OREGON Window Cleaning Service PHONE RIGHLAND PARK 2757 Admit Peons From Should Apply Quota when in need of Fear lutks in the eyes of Europe‘s dictators, despite the fact that they are known as brave men, asserts Doctor George Draper in an article in the first number of the new Scribâ€" Draper points out that fear and cowardice are not the same thing. Fear is an emotion and cowardice a matter of behaviotr. "An illustration of the complete separateness of fear and behavior in the human species may be found in the history of tyrants. During the war, and from time to time since, the man on horseback has appeared in various countries of Europe. . Not long ago any one might have seen in a certain illustrated journal a page upon which were displayed the photoâ€" graphs of five renowned dictators. One could not fail to perceive at a giance that fear was the dominant emotion which shone from the eyes of each one of the men. _ Curiosity econcerning The identity of these five frightened persons would have led to the disclosure that they were the powerful and terrorizâ€" ing giants who held their trembling subjects in the hollow of their ruthâ€" less hands. The fierce (sometimes confused with ‘scared‘) expression on the five faces added to their reputaâ€" tion of frightfulness, much as the aweâ€"inspiring masks of oriéntal warâ€" riors used to do. There is no ques~ tion that these five important gentleâ€" men can be said to be meeting life with a high degree of courage or braâ€" very of behavior. Yet the light in their anxious and furtively watchfal eyes bespeaks the subconscious fear of that potâ€"shot which some fanatical or unconscientious objector has been taking at one or another of them at weekly intervals. The same look is often scen in the eyes of a patient who comes with a stout heart for the first time to a hospital to face a serious surgical operation." â€" The election contest case over the result of the city election in the spring of 1927 continues in the courts at Waukegan, which grind slowly along. The most recent action was denial of a motion of the defendants for disâ€" missal of the case. Several more leâ€" gal moves are possible before the matâ€" tor reaches a final decision, it is unâ€" derstood.
