I LEGUIA AND REVOLUTION IN PERU I
"11 —1 — —- .. ■ ■ - - — - - i- -
Concerning the new revolution in
Peru, Senator Sherman of Illinois had
this, among other tilings, to say in the
senate:
“Mr. President, I read among the
signatory nations to the peace cove
nant. the 32 original elect, the name
of Peru. At three o’clock—inoppor
tune time, indeed—on the morning of
the Fourth of July, 1919, two regiments
of soldiers rushed in on the palace of
the president at Lima, seized by force
Senor Don Jose Pardo, president of
Peru, and immediately conveyed him
to the penitentiary. I shall observe
with mild curiosity what our president
thinks of if.
“Two soldiers and three civilians
were killed. While the slaughter was
far from satisfactory for a coup d’etat
in such a republic, the principle of self
determination of a free people is felt
to be sufficiently vindicated.
“Peru bad an election for presi
jj(£) Western Newspaper ljnion |
ident last May. As usual, both candidates claimed to he elected. President
Pardo was maintaining the status quo while the contest wrs paiding before the
Peruvian congress. Senor Augusto Leguia (portrait herewith), candidate of
the independent party, claimed four-fifths of the votes were cast for him.
President Pardo was alleged to favor the seating of Senor Aspillaga, who was
Senor Leguia’s rival. Senor Leguia countered with two regiments of soldiers
* while it was yet time.
“An embarrassing feature was breaking off a Fourth of July celebration
arranged by the American legation at Lima. The reign of universal peace
vouchsafed by the League of Nations was to have been celebrated in speech
and snnfr with floats international Hafirs and music.”

EDUCATOR VALUES SCOUTING .
Hon. P. P. Claxton, commissioner of
education in Washington, in an open
letter says in part as follows:
“Persons of vision declare that we
are entering upon a renaissance m
education. Let us hope that this pre
diction finds its justification in the
awakening of the consciousness of
teachers to the infinite possibilities of
development of the educative proc
ess.
“The church and the school, ade
quately to serve the youth committed
■ to their care, must extend their func
tions and absorb under their direction
the leisure time of the boy.
“The availability of the boy scout
program for such a purpose has been
fully tested. Tt has been approved
by leading educators; the movement cs
essentially religious, but nonsectarian.
It trains for citizenship, but is non
partisan and nonpolitical.
“It offers the boy the opportunity
to do the things he wants to do, in
a better way than he can do them by
himself. Scouting is designed to make
real men out of reel boys of a real
program that works,
“The bureau of education commends
it to the favor of all organizations d‘>
siring to extend the post-classroom
programs of the adolescent boys under
their care.”
ETHICS OF SCOUTS TRAPPING.
_ i
The scout movement today is facing I
the necessity of giving the proper i
leadership in the matter of trapping
animals that can be classified as harm- j
ful to the nation’s food and game sup- j
ply. With this in mind, says Dr. Wil
liam T. Hornaday, I feel free to state
that there is one way, and one way
only, in which the steel trap and the
boy scout law can be brought into a
state of real harmony.
Often, in sections where scouts live,
there exist four-footed Americans who,
although interesting, are not good citi
zens because of certain predatory in
• stincts which make of them, when
they are too numerous, real pests that
must be abated for the common good
of all. It is in this work that the
scout can employ the steel trap, and
at the same time live up to the prin
ciples of the scout law.
In the West, the gray wolf with his
murderous instincts and marvelous
cunning ways works great havoc
among the flocks of sheep, the colts
and the calves.
In other corners of the country,
foxes, mink, raccoons, skunks and
weasels collect a toll from the poultry
roosts, the crops and the valuable wild
bird life of the neighborhood. In such -
districts these fur-bearers become the j
legitimate game of the scout trapper. ! •
