Chicago. Tune 12 While addi
tional wage cult swung over the
heads of 350,000 more railway env
nlove and awaited only iormal re
lease bv the railroad labor board to
tla.h another $40,000,000 from the
pay roll of the carriers, it vvas
rumored today that any rail strike
growing out of present threats may
be directed and financed irom Can
ida as a nirans of evading the recent
decision of the United States su
preme court holding unions liable for
carnages caused by treir members.
Viewed Legitimate.
Leaders of the rail unions said to
be contemplating the move viewed
the establishment of Canadian head
quarters as legitimate in view of
conditions caused by the supreme
court opinion, because the unions are
international organizations. Final
penalties in case of a walkout could
thus be averted, it was said.
It was expected the new wage re
duction order will increase the total
cut from railway workers' wages to
approximately $150,000,000 a year.
Clerks, signal men, stationary fire
men, oilers and marine department
employes will join the shopmen and
maintenance of way employes as
victims of the slash. .

Tientsin, China, June 12. (By A.
P.) Gen. Chang Tso-Lin's propo
sals for an armistice with Wu Pei-Fu
appear to have been simply a ruse to
gain time for the defeated Manchuria
war lord. Heavy fighting broke out
fnday between ihinwangtao ana
Shanhaikwan. The battle has been
raging for the past three days.
Pekin. Tune 12. (By A. P.)
China, after 10 days virtually without
an executive head functioning - ill
Pekin, again has a president and the
nucleus of a cabinet. - Moreover, if
indications are borne out, the two
will have a fair share of support from
the south China section, whose oppo
sition to the old government has done
much, if not most, to keep alive civil
war for the past five years.
Li Yuan-Hung, who was president
until the monarchial coup of 1917
forced. him from office, again is in
power. He came to Pekin yesterday
and resumed office, and his first of
ficial act was to nominate Dr. Wu
Ting-Fang, former minister at Wash
ington,-to be his premier. It is un
derstood that Dr. Wu had consented
t,o accept this office before Li left his
Retirement, in Tientsin ' to 1 re-enter
again' the "'turbulent -theater in
Chinese politicaal life. t
" Power t 'Carjtbn., r;
Dr. Wu has been 'a' power in the
Canton government since that admin
istration arose as a protest over the
very circumstances 'which ousted Li,
and his adhesion to the new execu
tive, if confirmed, is likely to do much
toward solidifying the country in its
support. '
Li comes at the behest of many
members of the old parliament -which
he dessolved in 1917, and at the
urgent appeal of Wu Pei-Fu, , dom
inant military leader of China. He
was reluctant to come and stood out
for more than a week against the
almost frantic pleas of leaders in the
movement for a unified China that
he reclaim his office. '
As assets of his new venture he
may count on the solid support of
Wu Pei-Fu, the good will and con
fidence, of a large proportion of the
former parliament,' now reassembling
and re-establishing itself as at least
the temporary representative of the
people, and a more nearly complete
suppression of banditry than has been
the case in many years.' This last
laVgely is due to Wu Pei-Fu's ener
getic campaigns, particularly that
against Chang Tso-Lin, the Man
churian war lord who recently sued
for an armistice. '-.
Sun May Fight.
As liabilities he may count upon
the open opposition of Dr. Sun Yat
Sen, president of the South China
government, and so many of the old
parliament members as Dr. Sun has
been able to induce to support him.
Dr.. Sun, too, has a good force of
troops in the field, 1 some estimates
placing their number as high as 150,
000. Dr. Sun has expressed himself
as willing to fight for the place at
the bead of China's affairs, which he
claims as chosen representative of
what the Canton proponents declare
is the only constitutional govern
ment in China. General Wu has de
clared that Dr. Sun's military op

To Eliminate Tuchuns.
It is believed that President Li's
first effort after he has put his gov
ernment into working order will be
the elimination of the system of
tuchuns or military provincial gov
ernors. He originally made it a con
dition precedent to his acceptance of
the presidency that these officials
should withdraw from office or at
least refrain from 'meddling with
civil governmental matters. The
system has been credited by many
students of Chinese affairs with the
generation of many civil conflicts,
since each tuchun. virtually is a mili

Hurricane Results inv
' 60 Deaths in New York
(Continued from Fata Oaa.)
The rescue work started immediately,
but darkness and the panic-stricken
crowds, hindered the labors of the
volunteer life savers. -
Property damage estimated at from
$1,000,000 to . several times that
amount was done by the tornado.
Tempest Breaks'.
The storm followed a day of in
tense heat and was as sudden as it
was violent. It was preceded by an
hour of dead calm, while ominous
blue-black clouds piled up above the
western horizon. Then came the
tempest, accompanied by the roar of
thunder and flashes of lightning.
Frail buildings were crushed by
the mighty weight of the wind; elec
tric wires were drn away and in
the darkness and torrential rains the
rescuers could do little until the
storm had subsided. Hysterical men
and women, tearing blindly . at the
wreckage, hindered rather than
helped the workers engaged in lifting
ruins, of the wheel.
Huge trees in Central park were
uprooted and tossed across the
driveways. ; .i-r:--r-'.--"
Five peopje .were hurt when the
wind blew out great plate glass
fronts of stores along Broadway and

Death' tame lit, unexpected
ways. A SO foot high ferris wheel in
the Classon Point amusement park,
abutting into -Long Island sound,
collapsed when it was struck by a
heavy bolt of lightning just as the
storm broke over that section. -The
revolving wheel. was crowded with
more than 60 women and children.
Five women'-'and' : a-Ttine-year-ofd
girl were crushed to death beneath
the mass of twisted steel girders and
heavy timbers and. the others were
dragged from under the pile of deb
ris by rescuers, who dug into the
wreckage in the: face of the intense
wind, and a heavy, blinding down
pour of hail that shortly turned to
rain. Eleven of the resc'ued Were se
riously injured and sent, to hospitals.
Several cannot -recover.-
The thousands of -persons at the
resort were thrown into a panic that
was quieted only when 200 reserves
atrived from Bronx police stations.

Fenton to Blame
for Brown Parole
Warden Shoulders Responsi

Black Marks in Record.
Lincoln, June 12. (Special.) "If
there is anyone to blame for the re
lease of Fred Brown from Jhe pen
itentiary it is certain members of the
Omaha police force and myself."
That was the statement given to
newspapers today by Warden W. T.
Fenton.
"I'm the man who dug Brown up
and pushed his parole through," the
warden continued.
"As for some of this talk that all
a convict needs to do in order to get
a parole is to make friends with
Christian people and ministers, that
is "bunk,"
"There has never been a single
church worker who has. taken an in
terest in the convicts at this peniten
tiary who has asked the board to
parole them. They visit the convicts
at the penitentiary and have in some
instances hunted ' employment for
them, when it looked as though the
men would get paroles. '
"I became interested in Brown
first when I learned of his wife in
Omaha suing him for divorce and be
lieved an attorney in Omaha was en
deavoring to take all of Brown's
property away from him. I looked
up Brown's prison record and it, was
absolutely perfect. There wasn't a
single, black mark registered against
him. ' ' - - -

Goes to Middlemen .
to Table
rom rarmer
. Washington, June 12. A loaf of
bread, the joint commission, on
agricultural inquiry said in a report
published today, offers a striking
example of what happens to the
farmers' products in the way of
cost and profits before it reaches
the family table. : x -
About 50 cents out of each dollar
the consumer pays for bread, the
report said, is absorbed in cost of
distribution. The farmer gets only
29.6 cents in the local market for
the wheat needed to produce it A
survey, showed that the average,
cost of getting the wheat ready for
the baking stage was 8.4 cents,
while the average cost of manu
facturing it into bread was 10.16
cents.
"A considerable factor in the
baker's cost of distribution, which
averages 15.76 cents of the conr.
sumer's dollar, is the service ele
ment," said the report.
"Our inquiry does not indicate .
that the manufacturing baker has
exacted an undue prorit in taking
the 5.3 cents from the consumer's
dollar for manufacturing bread and
distributing it to the retailer."

Vacuum l ube Used
in Various Ways
Sensitive Devibo ': Amplifies
, Souncf Wave as Well as It :
Generates, Currents.
, By JOHN E. KENNEBECK.
(Tfcl la Iha ItUK tatUIUml at Tba
Ba' atorjr of raalo.t ,
The vacuum tube is a rapid change
actor. In one way it makes meat
urement s in the millionths of an inch
and again it is amplifying sound-,
waves or is amplifying heartbeats of
a patient to aid physicans to diag
nose a case. '
A noted professor of physics has
proven that the vacuum tube is an
ultra-micrometer in that it is able to
register, measurement ,to the slightest
degree 1 by1 the connection of a gal
vanometer or measuring instrument
to the plate and grid of the tube.
Similarly, the vacuum tube is used
in science as a weighing machine. The
engineer will find use for the ultra
micrometer in . measuring stresses,
while the botanist has already em
ployed it in measuring "growth
pulses" of plants. It is doing also
a great humanitarian good. It is
helping the deaf to hear in that the
vacuum tube amplifies 'sound-waves.
Through the aid of a vacuum tube,
it is now possible for a physician in
New York to listen to the heart
beats of a patient in San Francisco.
Thus we understand the sensitive
ness of the vacuum tube, that is con
sidered the nerve of radio outfits.
Radio Fans, Beware
of "Boodeg". Tubes
The following appears in the Amer
ican Radio Journal recently and has
a bearing on the interests, of radio
amateurs in general:!
"Owing to the shortage. of vacuum
tubes, numerous 'pirates' have en
tered' the field in violation of patents
controlling the manufacturers, and
are hawking 'bootleg" tubes among
dealers and consumers. The legiti
mate manufacturers haye spent years
perfecting vacuum, tubes and have at
tained to a high degree of perfection
that cannot be approached by the
bootleggers. In fact, many of the
'bootleg' . tubes will not work at all
and the remainder, at best, last only
a few hours in operation. For this
reason, no guarantees . are given by
''.''" '.'-;."''-'(,''.'.
Always in Good Taste
the bottleggert, and the makers and
distributor are not disclosed.
; "Complaint, are pouring in in re
spect to ihete fraudulent tubes, and
dealers will certainly regret their
purchase and tile, even in small
amounts,
"Dealers and the public in general
should protect theuuelves by buying
only those tubes that have the same
name of the manufacturer or sellers
plainly 'marked on the bate of the
tube or 'on the carton containing it.
Another indication of the legitimacy
of the tube it the patent, dated Nov.
7.1905. Jan. IS I907. and Feb. 18.
1903 marked on the cartons or on the
tubes by the regular licensed manu
facturers. If none of these markings
are found it is very good evidence
that the tube is a 'bootleg' tube, and
the dealer or user should refute to
be duped."
SPARKS
Here .are some terms used com
monly in radio: .
B. Battery A small dry battery
that is used in a vacuum tube circuit
only. It it built so that a hish volt
age is given which is necessary for
the operation of the tube. Some of
the batteries are arranged in such a
way that the voltage may be varied.
' Current The amount of electricity
passing a given point in uni time;
measured in amperes.
C W. Continuous wave.
D. C Direct current.
: 'Detector The device, either crys
tal or vacuum tube, that is used to
detect the incoming waves and rec
tify them so that they may be made
understandable.
As many know from experience it
is very hard sometimes to get a sen
sitive spot on some pieces of crystal
and often it is necessary to break up
the mineral. This is a messy job
and need not be done. An expert
takes the mineral, places it face down
on a flat file and rubs down to a
clean new surface. This can be done
several times with the same piece,
and some wonderfully good spots are
sure to be found. Try it.
