PUSSTFOOT WELL REGEIVED IN INDIA Viliam E. Jobmson Liked by Moslems and Hindus Delhi, India. Oct. 28.—(The Asso- clated Press)—Willlam E. (Pussyfoot) Johnson the American = anti-saloon crusader who lost an eye in trying to dry'up the British Isles, is getting an- other kind of a reception in India. Moslem and Hindu, thousands of them in the past two weeks, have rendered Johnson honors rarely shcwn to any person short of royalty. Indian jour- nalists describe the American's entry into this ancient capital somewhat as Thomas Moore in “Lalla Rookh’" pic- tures the brilllant.and triumphant ar- rival of the Sultan’ of .Bucharia to claim the heart and hand of Aurung- zebe. Mr. Johnson has been ;lavishly en- tertalned by the Thakor Sahil of Limbri and other ruling princes and has been the recipient of numerons gifts. These include a lcase of jewels and a gold watch, ntaining one prince’s photograrh and his engraved coat-of-arms inlaild in regal purple enamel.. At Jalpur, a delegation of leading citizens came to the train at 2 o'clock in the morning and begged Johnson's secretary to permit them to enter his car and gazo at the sleeping foe of Robin Hops and John Bafley- corn. The request was granted and “Pussyfoot” did not know of the af- fair until breakfast. ¥ The night before, at 11:30 o’clock, Johuson's train pulled into Ajmer. About 500 natives were at the station and yelled for a speech. The crusader was awakened and as the stop was onily for a few minutes he didr't have time to dress. Whereupon the Ameri- can appeared on.the platform in slip- pers and pajamas and gave the crowd a vehement, if brief broddside against the drink evil. s Baroda, governed by a native ruler, entertained “Pussyfoot” as a guest of the government. An entire mansion, with a coterle of servants and a chiet of staff, and a carriago with driver and footman, were assigned to him and the reception was atiended by Indian rajahs and princesses as well as officfals of the state. : Mr. Johnson later was entertained by the dramatic portrayal of an Indian {olklore play and exampleo ot native household worship. The national hymn was sung and flags were flying as he entered the province. He visited a social settlement and in the evening spoke to 3,000 at a prohibition maas meeting presided over by the prime minister of Baroda. ’ Ahmedabad, the great Indian manu- facturing center, was next visited and after a series of social functiona the American dry leader was taken to the Home of Mahatma R. Ghandi. Speak- ing later before several hundred stu- dents of the National university, the president, faculty and student body of which were seated vn the floor, Mr. Johnson made a goed-lmpression by to-accept a chair and, amid cheérs, sat on the floor himself. 1In the evening a mass meeting was held in itho town hall, the largest assem- blage place in the city, which was able 1o accommodate not more than halt of the people ‘'who clamored for admission. . The Thakor Sahib, ruler of Limbri; a'feudal state which is independent of British rule, was the crusader’s host at his palace the néxt day. ‘The Tha- kor Sahib shut up the distillery and closed all the rum shops of his stale and the prime minister of Bhavanagar, regent of a nelghboring province, an- homewith sunshine to paint it with “LAVA -VAR”. It gives all woodwork, no matter how much marred or scarred, a bright, hard, smooth, mirror-like surface that makes it look almost new, and ‘that resists stains, scratches, even water. ‘Won’t turn white, either. “LAVA-VAR” flows smooth’7, covers well, dries over t and costs little— § indeed, it’s a real economy.

It was with difficulty that tI American and his secretary, Tarini Prasada Sin- ha, were able to reach their carriage through a cordon of police. Then fol- lowed three memorable days in which “Pussytoot’’ jumped from one event to another. The largest open-air dem- onstration, in the rear of the city hall, was attended by 6,000 and was pre- sided over by Pundit Madan Mohan Maliviya, ot the Hindu university at Benares. The Hindu intellectual lead- er travelled 400 miles to act as chair- man of the meeting which presented Johnson with an address of welcome printed in two languages on Indian hand-woven cloth. Another gift from Delhi people was a gold woven gar- land. Leaders of the Delhi demonstration included the head of the Khalafet movement in India, the political head of the Moelem church and Bishop Warne of America. Mr. Johnson was acclaimed by one of the speakers as “our brother who come 12,000 miles from America to belp the people of T0 BUILD YACHT - Suggestion That Ausiralia Should Compete Against America For Rac- ing Cup. Sydney, New South Wales, Oct. 28.— A yacht should be built at Auckland to compete for the America cup on behalf of Australia and New Zealand, it was suggested recently by T. M. ‘Wilford, member of the New Zealond parliament, upon his return here from the United States. He expressed be- lief that such a venture is practicable and would advertise both countries in the United States, where he said he had fovnd an “appalling ignorance” regarding Australasia. “I believe that such a yacht as would be required to sail from New Zealand to America could be built in Auckland, if the money could be found,” he said. *“There is no doubt that it would be a sound, commercial proposition, for every New Zealand firm would recognize that a challenge would afford publicity of the most ef- fective sort. New Zealand could easily find a crew for such a boat and what a sensation would be caused if the hero of Jutland, Lord Jellico, could be pursuaded to take command. The yacht could be sailed through the Pahama Canal and then hug the At- lantic shore to New York. CASTORIA " uFor Infants and Children n Use For Oy, ot er 30 Years he &u‘nu. of 217 Main St. ?
