It la a camp of real work for officers

because the N. G. P. is working to a

From the number of flights, sprails
nd spills registered today it was a lit
tle hard to tell whether the rookies were
training to be cavalrymen or Aviators.
The weather yesterday was so clear
that a panorama of the parade ground,
moving with khaki against the clear
outline of the green hills land the blue
and -white above, looked like one of
those calendar lithographs of "Life in
the Army" with the American flag
floating from the headquarters flog pole
,over the colorful field. The picture was
more striking than nny army enlistment

young man into signing on the dotted

Even Old Jokes Reappear
The men of the old and new Twenty

"Sure do," said a three-battle-starred
corporal as he bared a decorated fore
arm. The new soldier was not pleased,
but game, and said brightly, "Well. I
guess they got the Idea from the nnvy."
Last night many of the "rookies"
were tossed in blankets and sent on
baffling errands for hundreds of yards
of skirmish line, kevs to the parade

The company having been nccepted '

the organization is properly federalized

Many units applied for federalization
too late to be admitted to this year's

No Such Tiling ns "Open Shop"
James Duncan, of Quincy, Mobs., one
of the most powerful men next to
Gompers and Morrison in the A. F. of
L., declared there was no such thing in
the country as the "open shop," so far
as labor is concerned.
"All this talk about a drivo for an
open shop In industry is wearisome."
the Massachusetts leader declared. "The
phrase is misleading. There is and
cnunot bo, so far ns labor is concerned,
an open shop. Under labor's point of
view there are but two kinds of shops,
the union and the nonunion shop."
President Gompers mny hnve some
thing to say on the presidential situa
tion before the meeting here concludes.
"Nothing today," he onid this morning,

It nil denends
In high labor circles that the Wilson
administration has been successful, but
they nro not ready to be delivered bod

"Nothing is asked of any man on
the score of either religion or politics
when he goes into n labor union," a
man high in the councils of the build
ing trades said today. "He Is asked
only to be n uuion mnn and to vote for
the best interests of labor regardless of
the politics of tho candidate he espouses
or opposes."
The executive council Is standing by
Mr. Gompers in his uncompromising
contention that there can be no reduc
tion in wage scales until the high cost
of living is reduced first. Resentment
is strong over the alleged favoritism
flhown to tho farmer by Congress nnd
threats of farmers' organizations in the
West to send thn high cost of farm
products still higher.

of the Kuo Mln Tang, or People's

According to Mn Soo, presiding offi

than any other nation as the result of
Mexican outrages."
"Mexico has no Chinese expulsion

"The loss of property nnd Chinese
lives during the last few years in Mexico
has. been appalling. Millions of dol

Chinese merchants has been confiscated
by Mexican rebels and outlaws for
which there has been no pretense
of reparation by the Mexican Govern

Chinese killed without cause or provo

greatest cause for grievance.

Supreme Knight Flaherty Ad

Convention
By tho Associated Press
New Yc-rU, Aug. .1. Far-reaching
activities of the Knights of Columbus
In reconstruction, educational and pa
triotic work were detailed lo tin dele
gates attending the thirty-eighth su
preme convention of the order here to
day, by Supreme Kulght James A.
Flaherty.
"We have placed more than 350,000
men in employment without cost to
them," ho said, "nnd each man nt n
living wage. By this work, I believe
wc have saved our country souio of
the distressing scenes that have been
witnessed In the metropolises of the na
tions who participated In the war."
"Throughout the period of demob
ilization," he declared, "tho Knights
of Columbus were close to the intn,
helping them with their problems, serv
ing them in every useful way we could
devise."
TenB of thousands of former service
men nnd women were benefited by the
order's educational campaign, the su
prcmc knight said. Five hundred vet
erans are receiving college educations in
representative universities. Tho Knights
of Columbus school hjstem has grown
from one to seventy-three schools within
twelvo months and will grow to 200
schools before the end of the year.
Teachers are paid 25 per cent more than
the public school rate, be snid, and this
policy will be continued. The ultimate
nlm of the order is to Inaugurate a
system of 500 self-sustaining night
schools. These schools will be thrown
open to civilians for nominal fees.
Lecturers, in their campaign nzninst
Bolshevism, have addressed 700,000
people in 200 cities. These lectures, he
said, have converted tens of thousands
of young people tending to raldcal
Ism back to the ways of common sense.
Mr. Flaherty said the knights had
experienced an unusual growth in mem
bership, the most distinguished acquisi
tions In the last year being King Albert
and Cardinal Mercier, of Belgium.
Previous to the formal opening of
the convention, tho delegates, who rep
resent every state in the Union, Mexico,
Cuba, Canada, the Philippines nnd
Porto Rico, attended n solemn ponti
fical mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral.
Archbishop John Bonzauo, delegate
from tho Holy See to the United States,
pontificated. The sermon was by the
Right Rev. John G. Murray, auxiliary
bishop of nnrtford, Conn. He praised
the knights' stewardship of the funds
entrusted to them by the American
public.
The parade of tho delegates, which
was to have been a feature of the con
vention, has been abandoned on ac
count of the two days' advnnced sailing
of the pilgrimage to Kurope. The
knights will present n jeweled baton,
costing .$15,000, to Marshal Foch iu
the name of the American nation, and
will unveil n statue of Lafayette in
Metz as a memorial to American sol
diers who died In France.

the terms of Ponzl's agreement, was to
have returned n profit of $500 If held
for maturity. The investor said he hnd
decided to pass up the profit and take
his principal back.
This early comer had no chance to get
lonesome, for soon after he had tuken
his station other noteholders began to
nnive. A score were on hand by C
o'clock and ns the usual opening hour
of 0 o'clock npproached the line grew
rapidly, giving every Indication of tho
biggest crowd of creditors since Ponzi
began paying back money more than a
week ago.
Bank Officers Defer Payment
Manv of those in lino were from
other New England cities where the
Securities Exchange Co. has maintain!
brunch offices. Managers of some of the
brunches had announced that forty
eight hours' notice wns required before
money could bo withdrawn, explaining
that the delay was necessary in order
that funds might be obtained from the
head offices in Boston, and investors in
mnny instances preferred to take n
day off nnd come to Boston for their
money rather than wait. Most of the
early arrivals said they wero holders
of unmatured notes.
Ponzi, in n statement, again asserted
that his business was solvent and that
he was prepared to meet all demands.
Ho estimated that un to Inst night he
had paid out about $3,500,000 since the
rim began. He asserted that he would
"have millions left" nfter meeting nil
obligations nnd that he wns "still con
sidering the offer of a New York
banker." whom he did not namo, to
buy his business. "The banker and
his French partners." Ponzi said, "will
have a conference with me today."
Records Destroyed or Hidden
Edwin L. Pride, the auditor ap
pointed by United States Attorney Dan
iel J. Gallagher to investigate PohzI'h
accounts, said it would require several
more days to completo work on the
books. Mr. Pride announced that ho
had found no indication of criminality
as far as hln investigation hnd gone.
According to State's Attorney
General J. Weston Allen Ponzi
declares his correspondence with offi
cials in Europe hns been destroyed nnd
other' pnpers rclatlvo to tho business
