U. S. Says Slate

Bureau of Mines Finds Quarry
Waste of Value as Filler
on Asphalt Sur
faces. Washington, June 25. In order to
find a useful outlet for waste ma
terial at slate quarries tests have
been made by experts of the United
States bureau of mines to determine
the value as a filler in asphalt road
surface mirtures.
According to statistics, 80 to 95
per cent of the gross production of
all slate quarries in the United States
is discarded as waste, and the lab
oratory tests were undertaken for the
purpose of devising the best means
of reducing the proportion of waste,
the utilization of the unavoidable
waste to the end that the added cost
of the finished production be re
duced.
Actual Tests.
Actual tests in laboratories of com
panies preparing road asphalt mix
tures indicate that for-resistance to
impact slate flour is equal to other
perior to both limestone and Port-
briquets and intermediate between
them in standard sheet surface mix
tures. In cementing value it is su
perior to both lonesome and Port
land cement in asphalt bonded
biquets and intermediate between
them in standard sheet surface mi -
ture. Tests show that slate flour
contains approximately 15 to 25 per
cent more of the fine dust that con
stitutes effective filler than either
limestone, trap rock or Portland ce
ment. In volume weight it is about
equivalent to limestone and approx
imately 10 per cent superior to Tort
land cement. The cost of slate flour
is little more than half of Portland
cement, but its ability to compete in
price with limestone is not yet es
tablished. Would Improve Highways.
The bureau is careful to point out
that while the tests already made are
not sufficiently comprehensive to
give conclusive results they are defi
nite enough to suggest possibilities
of such importance as to induce
further and more extended research
both by slate producers and by
manufacturers of asphalt road mix
tures. The bureau of mines is con
vinced from its tests that the use of
slate flour as a filler in asphalt road
surface mixtures would result in im
proved highways and that a wide use
of such filler would afford a profit
able outlet for waste slate, with con
sequent advantage to the slate-producing
industries.

Impetus Given
Belief Soviet
Stole 20 Ships
Report of Mutiny and Piracy
On German Craft Forti
fies Hoover Solution
To Mystery.
Washington, June 25. The theory
that bolshevist buccaneers, agents
of sympathizers, were responsible for
the disappearance of more than 20
merchant vessels of Virginia and
Carolina coasts during the past six
today when officials investigating
months received a decided impetus
the case came into possession of a
detailed official account of the seiz
ure of the Cuxhaven fishing steamer,
Senator Schroeder, by a mutinous
crew who confiscated the vessel in
the name of the soviet government.
After the captain and other offi
cers of the ship had been over
powered and locked up, the ringleader
of the mutineers, one Knuefken, aid
ed by two bolshevist agents, who
had been smuggled aboard as stow
aways, ran the ship into the port
of Murmansk. Here Kneufken left
the ship and eventually made his
way back to Hamburg, where he
was convicted of mutiny and ship
stealing and sentenced to five years
in the penitentiary.
Meanwhile the members of the
crew, who had remained with the
Senator Schroeder, tired of life
among the soviet and plotted to steal
the ship and return to Cuxhaven. i
Gettine oermission to go out on a
fishing trip they overpowered their
new officers and took the Senator
Schroeder back to Cuxhaven where
thev were arrested and tried.
This fantastic, though apparently
indisputable, report of mutiny and
mracv gave a new lease ot lite to
the belief first expressed by Secre
tary of Commerce Hoover that the
unusual loss of ships during tne
oast vear must be ascribed to the
actions of bolshevist crews. Offi
cials point out that while weather
bureau reports given out today might
account for some of the missing
ships there still remains a goodly
list of vessels which disappeared un-
der unexplained circumstances and
in calm weather.

Fortunes Stolen
Asserts Heir Who
Refuses Millions
He's Happy as Barefoot
Farmer Million He Re
fused Held in Trust for
His Daughter.
Buzzard's Bay, Mass., June 25.
"Heaven forbid that 1 be offered a
third million!" said Charles Garland,
Harvard graduate, who has iust re
jected a second fortune of $1,000,000
from the estate of an uncle. "But if
I am I will turn it down just as em
phatically as I have the other twoi
already bequeathed me.
A society based on money is the
wrong kind, continued the young
man, who first startled a money
mad world bv refusing a fortune
of $1,000,000 from his father's es
tate. '"All the evils of the world
spring from the greed of private
possession from the desire of one
man to have more than another.
The real things, the ideals and ideas,
cannot be bought and paid for.
Happy as Barefoot Farmer.
Garland todav told in detail why
he is happier as a barefooted, com
fortable country farmer than he
possibly could be if he owned the
bank of England.
Barefooted, his feet tanned almost
black by sun - and
1 exposure, he di-
vided his time between wedging a
bolt in a handmade rowboat and
cranking the engine of a handmade
traction machine on his mother's
magnificent country estate here.
And as he manipulated various
levers of the traction engine with
his naked feet, Garland, simple farm
er and idealist, expounded his rea
sons why he has turned down two
fortunes. The first was left him by
his clubman father, James A. Gar
land; the second by Charles Tullen
Garland, of England.
His wife shares his ideas, and
Garland savs she is a "perfect com
panion." When he wishes to work,
he says, she dons breeches and over
alls and helps him saw wood or ham
mer nails. When he wants to talk
she listens. She is content, he as
serts, to be a "poor man's" wife, and
not handicap her freedom by "stolen
goods." For, he says:
Stolen Goods, He Says.
"If I accept a fortune I'm steal
ing something that doesn't belong
to me. And if I give money away
I'm helping someone receive stolen
eoods that will do him harm.
Money never did anyone any good.
I never could do any good with
money.
"Men become great by following
their ideals, not by following the
lure of wealth. Money kills idealism.
Christ preached this. I am a pro
fessing Christian.
"If I have something others need
I'll give it to them. And if they
have something I need I'll take it;
but not on a money basis. If I
want to eat I'll plant my foodstuffs
and build an engine to reap them.
Then I'm producing what I need and
not robbing anyone.
"When my little 3-year-old daugh
ter grows up she may accept a for
tune if she wishes. And she may
go through the farce of a college
education if she chooses. But I
shan't force her, and I hope her
self-education will show her the fu
tility of wealth. I shan't contami
nate myself or others by receiving or
giving money."
And Garland is a very busy man
Sometimes he works all day. Some
times he just sits in his garden and
thinks.
While he declines to accept the for
tune left him by his father he is liv
ing on the bounty of his mother, now
Mrs. Swinburn Hale. He frankly
admitted to his interviewer that with
his wife and infant daughter he had
depended all winter on his mother
for support.
All the while the money which
I Garland refused is guarded by the
! trustee accumulating tor the beneht
of the baby daughter, who might
now, but for her father's ideas, have
many nurses, many toys and a rich
nursery instead of a simple farm
house crib.
"My present desires are simple,"
he added. "I haven't any money in
my pocket and I don't want any."
"Do you believe that your labor
on the farm has repaid your mother
for what she has spent on you?" Gar
land was asked.
. This is his reply:
Has Produced His Share.
"No, I don't figure anything of the
kind. I feel sure my productive ef
forts for my mother haven't been
equal to what my family and I have
consumed. I have worked some of
the time on a farm which a man I
leases from my mother. That labor
hasn't brought her anything.
"I do, believe, though, that my ef
forts toward society as a whole have
equalled what I have consumed of
the products of society.
"If I went out and hustled and
produced more things for z. world
which already has more things than
it needs and are good for it I would
be injuring society. There are al
ready enough food and clothing for
everyone if everything were equit
ably distributed. That is why the
present system is tutile. W hen a
man who has as much as he wants
is wished a fortune of a million the
system by -which the situation comes
to pass should be abolished."

Koutsky Loses
Fight to Reject
Bids on Paving
Commissioner Declares Can
Save Tax Payers Money,
But Council Holds Work
Should Be Done.
City Commissioner Koutsky in a
10-minute speech during the special
meeting of the city ccMincil yester
day declared he could save tin
taxpayers of the city a large sum of
money by rejecting bids submitted
on paving projects the fore part of
this week.
When a vote on his motion to re
ject the bids was taken, however, it
was defeated by a 5 to 2 vote. Com
missioner Dunn voted with Koutsky
on the motion.
Says Bids Too High.
"I'm through," declared Koutsky
when the vote was completed. "The
bids were too high. I could save
$20,000 on the Dodge street project
alone. The low bid was $4.69 a yard
on brick when it shouldn't have been
more than $3.50."
F. E. Sheehan presented a petition
signed by property owners on Dodge
street, urging that bids be accepted
immediately so the paving can be
completed by fall."
"The property owners don't feel
the saving which readvertising for
bids might result in would justify
the delay. Dodge street has been
torn up fcr two years. We estimate
it would require 82 davs to readvet
tise for bids and get the project un
der way."
Signers of Petition.
Among the signers of the petition
were George Brandeis and repre
sentatives of Trinity cathedral, Hotel
Fontenelle, the El Beudor and Mor
ris apartment and the Omaha
club.
"But I can pave Dodge street for
$3.50 a yard, ejaculated Commis
sioner Koutsky, leaping to his feet.
"Prices on materials have dropped.
Cement is down to $2.62. It wouldn't
take more than two weeks to read
vertise for more bids. Why, the
Leavenworth job was done under
the worst kind of conditions at $4.27
a yard, while with prices declining
the low bid on this job is $4.69."
"I'm sure we appreciate the effort
to save taxpayers money. Its some
thing we haven't been used to," said
Sheehan. But we want the job
done."
Makes Charges.
"The contractors have been work
ing on the other commissioners,
charged Commissioner Koutsky,
when his resolution was voted down.
"They tried to influence me and
failed, so they took some other
means of getting what they wanted.
The city hasn't any money to start
the work with, anyway, but against
my will I'll present a resolution next
week to accept the bid for the Dodge
street project.
