Sovcrefgn Commander of
W. 0. W. Outlines Program
to Combat Elements That
. Try to Disrupt Lodge
New York, July 5. W. A. Fraier
of Omaha, soveereign commander of
the Woodmen of the World, in his
annual report submitted to the
Woodmen's national convention here
today, described the "obstacles
which were thrown in the way of the
management by those who are al
ways opposed to any new departure
regardless of its virtue," and. ex
plained what measures were to be
put forth to combat the insurging
elements.
."To harass the management the
insurging faction brought numerous
suits in different states, all of which
were decided in favor of the society,"
Commander Fraser said.
Solvency Increased. )
In the prelude he set forth the evo
lution from what ' he termed the
'unscientific plan of rating fraternal
societies from their inception until
the , present date, when most socie
ties are conforming with the -laws
requiring adequacy of rate's."
It was through his suggestion, the
rendrt' continued, that the Wood
men of the World made 'a substan-
uai increase in rail's as lur uav.ii as
1901. and at almost every national,
convention, since that date he
strongly urged plans for adequacy
and accomplished his purpose "to
perpetuate the society at the conven
tion of 1919, which in one stroke in
creased the society's solvency from
60 to 101 per cent."
Makes Recommendations.
- The uniform rank is an important
adjunct to any fraternal organiza
tion, Mr. Fraser stated, and he
strongly recommended reorganiza
tion of this branch on an extensive
scale ,
; Other : steps recommended in
cluded erection of a monument in
France for the organization's soldier
dead, establishment of a home for
aged and a sanitarium for members

Stowaway Gets
Admission Into
U.S. on the Fourth
Twelve-Year-Old Bov Who
Has Lived Ages of Horror
Permitted to Land as
Sponsor Found.
Chicago, July 5. Frank (lately
Franz) Fetzer, 12, has realized his
ambition. He has been admitted to
the United States, which, to him
represents heaven and the ultimate
of all desires.
Alter travelling all the way from
Czecho-Slovakia by himself he was
held up at the immigration office
until some one. was found who would
give the government assurance the
boy would not become a public
charge. Frank Fabigan of Chicago
promptly gave that assurance and
the boy stepped into the land of the
free on July 4, a most appropriate
occasion.
Lived Ages of Horror.
Although but 12 the boy has lived
ages of horror and suffering which
show in his face. In the little town
of Atraubitz his father was a small
merchant. With the outbreak of
hostilities he marched away with
his regiment. A French bullet killed
him.
Then Atraubitz was invaded and
the boy and his mother fled to Vi
enna. . Hunger, grief and privation
were too much for the mother and
she perished. The lad thca had to
shift for himself and in a country
where everybody was on the verge of
starvation. He managed to exist on
scraps he found in the streets, bits
of food occasionally handed him by
sympathetic people, and his clothing
was such as he could salvage from
the charnel houses.
He does not recall just how he got
to the seashore and managed to stow
himself away in an ocean liner. He
made a little money selling papers
and the officers of the boat brought
him to Quebec, From there he
worked his way to Detroit, where
immigration officers stopped him un
til Mr. Fabigan came to the rescue.
"This lad has had experience that
will make him a good citizen of this
country," said Mr. Fabigan. "He
will appreciate the blessings of the
United States. The first thing I
did was to change his name from
Franz to Frank, and he will be
taught English as rapidly as pos
sible. He thinks the United States
is heaven after what he has gone
through, and I intend he shall grov
up with that sat"; thought."
Girl Falls Off Elevated
Platform But Is Lucky
New York, July 5. Nine-year-old
Anna Cunningham fell off a station
platform in front of an elevated train
in Brooklyn today. In falling, she
missed the approaching cars, dropped
between the rim of the platform and
track, glanced off an electric feed
wire and landed on the street pave
ment 35 feet below. She cried as a
policeman picked her up. Physicians
found her only injuries were three
broken teeth and some scratches.

property damage is unofficially esti

yesterday's explosion in the Standard
Oil company's refining plant at
Whiting, Ind.
Two huge steel stills burst, the
brick walls inclosing them crumbled
and a sheet of burning oil and gas
spread for a radius of 200 yards,
trapping the night force. Five men
were burned to death, three died
later in Chicago hospitals and the
condition of 10 others is serious.

' Cbnnelsville, Pa., July 5. Ap
proximately 7,000 coke workers in
the independent plants of the Con
nelsyille coke region were affected
today by a 10 per cent reduction in
wages, the second announced this
year. The new rate is about 33 1-3
per cent below the rate paid January
1, but according to coke men, 45 per
cent higher than the -prevailing rate
in 1912. Only about 7 per cent of
the independent ovens are in opera

Motors Take Heavier Toll
On Fourth Than Explosives
Chicago, July 5. Reports from
all parts of the world on Fourth of
July celebrations indicate that prob
ably the most intense old-fashioned
American observance with fireworks
and explosives was in Germany, at
Coblenz, where American "dough
boys" held forth with noise galore.
Most cities of America reported
more deaths from automobile acci
dents and drowning than' from ill
timed explosions of firecrackers and
Roman candles, which gives birth
to the news that the age in which
the explosives' toll of the Fourth
was greater than the casualty list
in the battle of Lexington is finally
a matter of history. Philadelphia
and Boston both reported yester
day as the "safest and sanest
Fourth" of history, and most other
large cities of the east reported only
a few mishaps. ,
