ILIJNOIB TRY TO GET VOLIVA'S $1,000 PRIZE MONEY PROVE WORLD Amusing Letters Zion Overseer; N to be the R Answer The one thousand dollars which Voliva offered to the man who can prove that: the earth is a globe and that it has any movement still lays unclaimed. although there have been a few aspirants for the prize. The ediâ€" tnr of an Arkansas paper has come the nearest to getting the rewardâ€"ac- cording: to Oversu-r Voliva. The edi- tor says: “Mix a number nf drinks of tangleâ€" fnut and hard L-idvr together. That will prove it. The money’s our'n!” But the mom-y isn't our'n" just yet. From Mnnr<wviH(-,-O.. there comes a statement from one who no doubt has had considerable education. for he says: “Having read your statement in :1 Cleveland paper, I am taking the lib- erty to write you and ask how the earth can be flat?" > “It is awell known fact that if one were to start from New York City and travel directly east he would. at the end bf his journey. ‘find himself back in New York." Vuiiva‘gs reply to this man is: “You can 20 due east on a pan and can go to where you started from!" A contestant from Independence, Mo.. claims that a sviéntific treatise was furwardcd the Smithsonian In- stitute upsetting the gravity idea, also the theory of tides, waterspbnts. and othef (hings taught in the (‘hi- cage. New» York, Columbia, and other hnivegsities. The treatise was “canâ€" ned" and neverx-amg before the pub- lic. A truly pathetic appeal for the thousand dollars comes from Minneâ€" apolis, Minn The writer says: “I am hard up for muméy and have poor health :00, and it is all I can do to live at all. but if I had the money I could dept-tor up an] get on my feet and be fiblo l- dq sonuthing for my self.

THE NEW CABINET The new cabinet does not differ much from former selections made by new Presidents, because it con- tains perhaps zt‘NO wise statesmen who are regarded as equal to the great tasks before them. Then there are personal friends who have been re- warded, and neither prophets nor Sons of prophets can tell what their finish will he. Next in order are two or three clever. astute politicians. and the usual “dark horse’f. When Wood- row Wilson first picked his Cabinet the newspapers of his party printed laudatory stories which read just like those that are printed today about the Cabinet of President-Elect Harding. But a strictly candid, unbiased opin- ion, would have to be content with concluding that the new cabinet gives splendid promise for the best results, with the qualification that as I whole the personnel may reveal in time, some serious flaws. Personally the men are all well known to Wash- ington. and they will have'the help and support of all oflicials and peo- ple of any importance.

In 1918 the Pit« man act fixed $1 an ounce as the price at which the purchases of silver should be made. The price of silver in the open market not» is about sixty cents an ounce.

The firm maLtar dye was dis- covered by Sir Wii‘iam Perkin; the second. by Verquin; the third, by Lightfoot. Germans were nut the pi- nneers in the coalâ€"tar chemical indus- try. and since 1916 our American che- mists haw made out of American coal- Lar"ever 500 dyes, medicines, photo- graphic chemicals and synthetic per- fumes and flavors. This, in five years, is as much progress as Germany made in forty years. o Jallnn American coal-tar dyes are chemi-u cally identical and, if used in the same materials. give the identical re- sults as the dyes of the same type anywhere in the world. No dye has ever been discovered which is fast for all purposes. and the Germans never guaranteed their colors. The greatesi‘tféompfiiint was made during the early years of the war. During this period there were no Am. erican dyes, and“ the goods which were not satisfactory were colored by makeshift means with imported dyes. Until 1918 there were practic- ally no goods reaching the consumer that were colored with American- made dyestuffs. ~ Why We Must Make Our Own ‘Qyfl im'mu The American coal- tar chemical in- dustry is vital to th‘exgrosperity and safety of every Ameri citizen. “em a business point (331%. 67, 585 manufacturers employing nearly two find onevquarter million Ameri- can workers and producing goods valued at 5 and three-quarters bil- lions of dollars are directly dependent upon dyestuffs alone. We cannot let so vast a part of our American in- dustry be dependent on a foreign source of supply for essential crude material. Without an American coal- Ht tar chemical industry we are depen- dent on foreigners for many invalua- ble medicines; such as, aspirin, saiol, carbolic acid, “606," phenacetin. In event of war, we cannot afl'ord to be without TNT, piric acid, or phosgene gas - all byproducts of the coal~tar dye industry. which we cannot Mm- pared to make uniess we have Amerio can factories and equipment, Ameri- can chemists and American workmen making dyes in peace time. It is the patriotic duty of every An:- erican man and woman to support the American dye industry. , wrma SOLDIERS BONUS GOES OVER The Congress will adjourn without passing‘the soldiers bonus bill and various reasons â€" most of which an pure “stand ofl's”, haVe been given by Memben of Congress. It is evi- dent that it is not the intention of Congress to put through this legigla- tion. Presumably the opposing forces are strong enough to tire out the champions of these bills; and they are relying on the hope that n time goes on theyressure back of the bill will become less and less.
