^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
Albuquerque, N. M.f Aug. 10.—
Until you have seen New Mexico's
sky and mountains an<l deep red
earth you do not know America.
Until you have breathed the air of
this heavenly land, you do not
know the best place for men and
their children, on this whole earth.
This place has been prepared,
and saved, through 500,000,000
years, for perfected man, and his
flying machine. Tens of millions
will live on these mountain ranges
and high plateaus. From this place,
they will fly where they please—
to the beautiful California or
farther north shores of the Pacific,
to Florida’s warm waters, in
winter, to New York’s draughty
man-made canyons, where money
is plenty, or across the ocean to the
beauties and memories of Europe.
But here they will return, and
here men will long to spend their
last days in contemplation of na
ture’s beauty and majesty, rever
ing the power of God, in whose
hand this earth is a grain of sand.
Here the sky is so blue, wide
and high your thought cannot re
main upon the earth. The sloping
mountains lead you up to the real
life that is above and around, far
away from this brief dwelling.
Elsewhere you read that man is
a tiny, unimportant insect of a
day. Here, you know it. And you
rejoice in the knowledge. You are
content to be the smallest part of
so magnificent a whole. You look
upon the massive, pure white
clouds, ships floating in the ocean
of blue, content to know that your
descendants will live and fly
among them, as free as they.
There, down the hillside, comes
an Indian boy driving his flock of
goats, and there, beside a hut of
mud, a donkey rolls in the dust,
to rid himself of smaller creatures.
We are such as he, or not much
higher, with our minds on our
bodies and on little else. But you
see the Indan boy, feet bare,
heavy, jet black hair, eyes of 'ad
resignation, no speculation there.
Y.ou realize that there has been
progress. We have conquered and
weighed this earth, measured arid
weighed the sun that lights and
warms it.
A race, with this land for its
dwelling, will do things infinitely
greater.
“It hath not yet been shown
what we shall be."
See your country first and often.
Let your imagination change the
barren desert to the garden that
it will be.
And let it change today’s human
selfishness and misery to the
glorious civilization that is our
destiny.
The travelers shipwrecked on
the coast of France saw, on a gib
bet, skeletons of criminals, swing
ing in the wind. “Thank God,"
said they, “we have reached civili
zation.”
They were right, that gibbet
meant law, and however horrible,
law is the beginning of civilization.
On this journey between the two
oceans, you pass much misery and
worry. Worry is a misery worse
than hunger.
You flash by a thousand scatter
ed small houses of boards, poorly
nailed together, women and chil
dren crowded within. Then comes
a fine, strong new brick building,
across it the world’s, “Standard
Oil Polarine." And that, like the
rattling skeletons, is a sign of
civilization.
What, hovels for human souls
and fin* brick for a soulless cor
poration. Does that mean.civiliza
tion? .
Yes, not now but later. The
ancient emperor had his huge bath
of marble, cooled by snow that
slaves brought down from the
mountains. His was the only
bath. Now he’s gone, slaves are
gone, bricklayers make $16 a day,
and everybody, almost, has a bath
tub.
Everybody, some day, will have
as fine a house as Standard Oil.
In that day there won’t be any
Standard Oil, perhaps; only pub
lic service organizations. Men of
brains will scorn to own unneces
sary millions, as they would scorn
now to own unnecessary slaves.
Meanwhile, if you are one of the
few that have freedom and go
where you jflease, come here to
New Mexico, for half the year at
least.
This land will increase the
bodily strength of your children
and their fathers’ mental power.
If you want information, write
to the Editor of the Albuquerque
Herald. That newspaper, one of
60 or 70 by the way, that print
this column on the front page, will
tell you what, you want, to know,
<>r refer you to the right source of
information.

By AnnO'-Inted Frees.
Marion, O., Aug. 12.—Thousands of
people desiring to pay reverence at
the tomb of the late President Hard
ing thronged Marion cemetery and
paused In front of the flower-covered
vault.
Automobiles which were permitted
to enter the cemetery clogged all
driveways, and the 26 National
guardsmen stationed there had great
difficulty in keeping tne visitors at
a respectful distance. Hater city
police were sent to the cemetery
to aid the guard in handling the
crowd.
U. A. Sloan, superintendent of the
cemetery, announced that no automo
biles w-ould be permitted to enter the
ground any Sunday in the future,
but visitors might enter afoot. The
superintendent said he had no ade
quate force to handle the large num
ber of automobiles which entered the
burial grounds.
Today’s visitors came from all sec
tions of the United States. Most of
them, however, were Ohioans who
were prevented from seeing the tomb
during the funeral services Friday
because of the crowds.
Festoons of black bunting and other
indications of mourning which ap
peared everywhere in the city during
the funeral service, were removed

Bank Force Stands 45 Minutes
With Arms Folded in “Strike"’
Paris, Aug. 12.—Because they re
sented the presence of policemen in
their places of employment, the em
ployes of the Credit Lyonais, one of
the largest banks In Paris, folded
Ihelr arms, and without leaving their
stations remained Idle for 45 min
utes, thus creating the first ‘ folded
arm bank strike" in the country.
Fifteen hundred workers took part
in the strike, which was held with
out incident of any sort. At 9:30 In
the morning a note was passed from
one service to the other stating that
at 10 o'clock all should fold their
arms and remain that way until 11.
The note stated that those who had
charge of cash should lock up their
money and keep strict watch, but not
to serve any clients.
At 10:45 the clients at the win
dows had packed the lobbies and word
was passed around that work could
now be resumed, as It was thought
the demonstration had served its pur
pose and shown the directors that the
employes were of one mind.
Federal Judge Denies Writ
Asked by State Prisoner
Lincoln, Aug. 12.—The petition of
J. G. V. Tngoldsbjc, a prisoner at the
state penitentiary who claims Texas
as his home, to secure a writ of
habeas corpus to free him from his
alleged illegal detention, was denied
by Federal District Judge Munger.
The court took the position that Juris
diction was lacking, alnce Ingoldsby's
only contention was that his apppal
to’ the state supreme court had not
been heard by a legally constituted
body. Judge Munger held that no
federal question was involved within
his Jurisdiction. Ingoldsby was con
victed In the district court of Otoe
county of uttering forged paper. He
acted as his own counsel In the hear
ing and gave notice of appeal from to
day's decision.

gasoline stations to reduce the price
of gasoline in Iowa.
More Cuts Threatened.
Los Angeles. Cal., Aug. 12.— The
price of gasoline in Los Angeles and
southern California is due for still
further tumbles in price, following
closely on the 2 cents per gallon drop
several days ago. according to ap
parently well-founded rumors here.
Independent service stations
throughout Los Angeles and vicinity
are now selling gasoline as low as 14
cents and some even cheaper, while
the "big four" companies charge 17
cents. At the time the “big four”
cut their prices 2 cents per gallon,
the independents were selling for 17
cents and immediately cut 2 cents be
low the price asked by the large
companies.
MtMuler Explains Move.
Chicago, Aug. 12.—Two objects ac
tuated Governor W. H. McMaster of
South Dakota in ordering the price of
gasoline in that state to be sold at 16
cens a gallon, he said in s statement
made public here following the an
nouncement by the Standard Oil com
pany of Indiana that it had reduced
its price of gasoline to meet the pre
vailing state price of gasoline
"I had two objects in selling 16
cent gasoline.” Governor McMaster's
statement saJd, "first to demonstrate
the excess profis being made in the
business and secondly, to bring about
a reasonable reduction In price.
"Standard Oil claims it has reduced
the price to 16 cents a gallon to meet
state competition, but they do not
tefl the full truth.
Reduction Was Refused.
"On Thursday, August 9, 1 had a
conference with Standard Oil offi
rials and demanded a reduction of 5
cents per gallon in South Dakota.
They leplled that it could not bo
done, that they never would reduce
the price in South Dakota as they
would lose money. I then told them
that tlie state would sell gasoline for
16 cents a gallon In South Dakota
until such time as the Standard OH
made a reasonable reduction. They,
therefore, have taken to state price,
which is the cost price, as an excuse
to move out and to crush the lnd<»
pendent oil dealers
Governor McMaster said that he
probably would have a more detailed
statement to laaue after he arrived
in South Dakota and studied the alt
nation more thoroughly. He stopped
off here today enroute home from
Marion, where he attinded the fu
neral of the late President Harding
Standard Cuts Price.
Chicago, Aug. 12.—Announcement
by the Standard Oil company
of Indiana that it would reduce Its
price of gasoline to 16 cents a gallon
in South Dakota to meet the price
which Governor W. H. McMaster
had ordered the state storage house
to fix, was followed by a statement
from L. V. Nicholas, president of the
National Petroleum Marketers' asso
ciation, that Inilependi nt oil dealers
In that state would bo crippled.
The Standard OH company stated
that the 16 cent price was much be
low (he coat of production, but that
it would carry out its policy that cus
tomers should not lie asked to pay
higher prices than fixed by any com
pel itor.
Mr. Nicholas attacked the Stand
artl in a statement in which tie de
clared that tlie company had "bru
tally and cold Woodediy" made Its de
clsion.
Nicholas Altadis Move.
"They have not honeatly ami fairly
reduced their price 4 tenia per gallon
a a they should, but they have re
duced their price #45 < enta per gal
lon,’’ Mr. Nlcholaa' statement said.
"In other words, they have brutally
and cold bloodedly reduced their
prlcca over the entire atate of South
Dakota to a point where, not only
will they loae money on every gallon
they sell, but they wilt force mi in
calculable loss on the Independent oil
Industry In the state—-a loss which
I he Standard Oil company well know s
la crippling to the Industry and will
tend to farther place the oil Industry
In the atnte completely slid Ir
revocably at the mercy of the Stand
ard Oil company.”
Mr. Nlcholaa said that tic* Simulant
(hi company was not inciting com
petition In the state foi tlu y could
not meet what did not ralat. The
I
! only place the state has attempted
to sell gasoline at the reduced price
is at Mitchell, he said, "and the
Standard Oil company very well
knows that a fair and decent ad
justment of the price situation could
have been made if they had seen
fit."
Mr. Nicholas said that Governor
McMaster’s plan could not fail to ac
complish good and constructive re
sults, and that the governor would
take immediate steps to protect the
independent oil industry end to pre
serve independent competition in the
state.

(^rafting Process Transfers
Perfume to Odorless Plants
By AMoclatfil Press.
Paris. Aug. 1J.—Professor Daniel of
Rennes appears to have discovered a
process which will cause to come
true Shakespeare's verse: "A rose by
any other name would smell as
sweet."
By taking two plants of the same
species and grafting one on the oth
er, notably a wormwood on a chry
santhemum, he found that not only |
the grafted wormwood developed re
markably. but it* flowers gave off
a perfume much more powerful than
that of the original plant. Moreover,
the chrysanthemum had given to the
wormwood flower something of its
own scent. Professor Daniel collect
ed the seeds of the grafted wormwood
and the following year obtained from
them some very fine plants.
Some perfumed flowers were graft
ed on plants that heretofore had no
■cent at all and the result has been
that the product of the grafting amelt
