REPUBLICANS TO PROVE CHARGES OF COX UNIRUE Chicago, Aug., 30.— L e a d e rs in tbe Republican P a r t y spent yesterday pre paring a m ass o f documentary evidence to be presented to the Senate Cam paign Investigating Committee when it reconvenes here to look into methods used in conducting the presidential campaigns. This evidence, they declared, would prove untrue the charges of Governor Cox that “ a $15,000,000 corruption fund” w a s being raised by the Republi cans and, “ would crucify Cox on his own cross.” Leaders Confer. ° Will H a y s, chairman of the Republi can National Committee, and Fred W . tJpham, treasurer of the committee, wero in conference until late last night. Under their supervision copies of the party’s books and records were m ade containing the name of every con tributor to the campaign fund and the amount given, the party’s cam p aign budget and the quotas assigned d is tricts. Another statement p r e p a r e d .is said to show the expenditures o f the party in the campaign. \It all w ill be given to the commit tee,” said Air. Upham. “ I t w ill show tbat there is no corruption, no slush fond, and that Governor Cox’s state ments are absolutely untrue.” AMUNDSEN PLANS 10 FOLLOW TRAIL LEFT BY San Francisco, Aug. 30.— T r a i l s blazed across the A r c t ic ice pack a quarter of a centurv ago by F r i t j o f Nansen, N o rw e g ian explorer, wero ex pected to be followed, fo r a distance, by Nansen’s fellow countryman, C a p tain Roald Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole, when he left Nome, Alaska, recently on an attem p t to drift across or near the North Pole. Nansen, in 1895, attem p ting the same drift, sailed around R u s s ia and Siberia and locked his boat, the Frarn, in the ice off the N e w Siberian Islands, w h ich lie in the A r c t ic north o£ Siberia. Amundsen, on leavin g Nome, isald he planned to s a il to the wune N e w Siberian Islands, let his boat, the M aude, freeze in the ice and then allow the winds and currents to curry him whero they wished. Explorers' theories that an' A r c t ic Ocean current starts near tho N e w Si berian Islands, runs through the Polar Sea, across or near tho Pole, aud Anally ends at Greenland, In tho Atlantic, w ere used by both N ansen ancl Amundsen as a base upon w h ich they made their plans. Existence of the current h a s been disputed by m any A r c t ic authorities, who claimed the wind and not the current determlnded the route of the ever-drifting Polar ice. Nansen, one of the first advocates of the theory, pointed to the fact that w reckage from the exploring craft, the Jeanette, destroyed near the N e w S i berian Islands, w a s found two years after the w reck along the Greenland Coast. A “ throwing stick” used l)y Alnskcn Eskim o s w a s found, it 1ms been cloimecl, in driftwood on a G reen land beach. The wreckage and the stick, it w a s argued, lodged on nn ice floo which carried them across tho Polar w a s tes lo Greenland. Nansen found tho drift not as , strong as he expected, m ainly because ! the Polar basin w a s much deeper ! than he had believed. I-Ie also dis covered that tlie wind determined to a great extent, the route of the ice drifts. T h e Frnm w a s carried to within 350 m iles o f the Pole and later 'cleared tho ice near Greenland. W h en the drifting F r a m arrived at the S2nd parallel, Nansen attempted to reach tho Pole over the ice. W ith one com panion he left the ship, and tn w h a t has been described as the mast during sledge journey ever undertaken, pro ceeded to the SGth degree, a t that time, tho farth e s t north ever reached by man. There he turned back. w e S I N G OF L U M B E R GO O D AND T R U E - T H A T 3 W A I T I N G - kT T H I S Y A R D F O R Y O U 1 - N 0 W - is the time to Re-roof your home.

Offering statistics showing rem a r k able rehabilitation ln form er devastat ed regions, w h e re German divisions wrought havoc in industrial, farm in g an d mining sections, Mr. H o u ston characterizes the recovery of the French people a s another \m iracle o f the M arne.” In an article in the cu r rent issue o f W o r ld ’s W o rk s a y s : “ W ith the governm ent support, in cluding loans totalling 9,609,082,916 fran c s fo r agricu ltu r a l and industrial reconstruction in “ devastated depart ments,” the Fren c h 'people have re opened 5,34 5 out of 6,445 schools ex- istan t before the w a r ; built or rebuilt 28,200 tem p o rary wooden and 16,800 perm anent stone dwellings, aud erected 2S,500 wooden barracks to replace houses d e s t r o y e d ; cleared, 3,339,000 hectares (a hectare is about 2 Ys a c r e s ) , out o f 3,950,000 of barbed w ire and trenches; employed 1,500 men pum p ing out and cleaning up flooded m ines; r e built 475 out o f 600 railroad bridges, w ith SO more in course of construction ; ’reopened v irtu a lly all of 1,100 kilo m eters of .canals destroyed and rebuilt 13 6 w h a r v e s a n d b u i l t 28 new ones.

Ono of the local garages and serv ice stations cut tho prico oC gas from 3 5 to 34 cents. This was given little attention until another of the garages followed llieir exam p le yesterday. T h i s became generally known at least to tho third garage, who thought they could go one better than that, so y e s terday they put out a sign, “ Gasoline 3 3 cents.\ O f courso this would injure the busi ness of those who obtained the 3 5 cents per gallon price, so they too changed their retail price to 3 3 cents this morning. T h is cut in price reached W a terloo like a flash of lig h t ning and autoists from that village eamo here to fill their tanks. T h a t village and Seneca Falls al w a y s have been hot competitors iu the field of business and they were not go ing to be outdone by their sister v il lage, so down went the retail price of gas in W a terloo to 3 3 cents. Of course the dealers claim they are losiug money to a certain axtent, but w h a t of that, business is business. A lecturer w a s talking on the drink question. “ Now, supposing I had a pail o f w a ter and a pail of beer on this p lat form and then brought on a donkey, w h ich o f tho two would ho take?” “ H e ’d take tho w a ter,\ came a voice from tlie gallery. “ And w h y w o u ld he take the w a t e r ? ” asked, the lecturer \B e c a u s e you would beat him to tlie beer,” w a s tho reply. — Edinburgh I S cotsm an.

Tlie efficiency of the service large ly depends upon the way-you use it and the price you pay for it By using it correctly you enable the operator to serve you better. By paying ,a fair price , you make it %ossible p for the Company to pro vide good service. We are your agents, responsible ' for furnishing telephone service of the standard you demand. To do this, we must have an efficient organization and enough funds to meet the financial needs of the enterprise. We must \ 1. Pay fair wages to employees. 2. Pay to investors fair returns on the money already put into telephone property. 3. Earn sufficient net revenue so that in- viestors will continue, by the' purchase of telephone securities, to furnish the large amounts of new capital required each year for extending the system. ^ I 'HESE things we cannot do with our present revenues. In creased rates for local and toll ser vice are necessary. We are asking the average subscriber to pay a few cents more a day for his service so that from the large number of tele phone users in the State, the addi tional revenue we need can be secured without burdening anyone. \VTOUR support of the new ra^es is necessary. The maintenance of good service depends upon your continued cooperation quite as much as it’ does upon our efforts.
