number of European immigrants are
expected to arrive in this county in

the farmers who desire to secure labor
how to proceed. For administrative
purposes the entire country has been

WILSON DISAPPR0yES
OF AIR COMMANDMENT
Unfortified Towns Should BE Given "a
Hours NOiiee-His Views
Unofficial.

President Wilson has communicate
ed unoficially TO the diplomatic rep
resentatives Of the United States in
the belligerent countries Of Europe
his disapproval Of attacks by bombs
from air craft dropped on unfortified
cities occupied by noncombatants.
The president was careful not to
take the matter up officially and did
not even make his communication
through the State Department, but
personally addressed American ambas-
sailors abroad. He took this course, it
became known, nearly two months ago,
and the facts came to light through
the publication Of a report that the
president had discussed the matter
with European diplomats here. This,
however, was dened by some Of the
prominent diplomats mentioned in con-
nection with it, including the Ger
man amoaTadcr.
Just how the American diplomats
abroad we're to convey President VIII
sons feeling in the matter to the for
eign governments has not been diaclos-
ed, as White House officials in the abb
scnce of the president decline to dis
cuss the subject.
] It is believed, however, that the
president called attention to the ar
ticle in the Hague convention of 1907,
/ to which all the principal belliger-
ents are signatory, providing for mo-
tiee of "a hours before bombardment
or attack in order that noncombat-
tants may remove themselves from
the danger zone.
Whether there have been any UNI
official responses from the belligerents
was not known here, but American
diplomats were instructed by the pres
ident, it is understood, to handle the
matter with such discretion and de-
licacy as would tend to end aerial
attacks without notice and at the
same time preserve the friendship
which the United States feels TOWARD
all the belligerents involved.
1t is not believed that the president
mentioned any specific violation, bu'
expressed his views on the genera
subject of aerial attacks. Through thu
unofficial character Of the communica
ton, it was intended by the presiden
to bring about better understanding
about aerial warfare without actual.
involving the American government
in the matter.

CONGRESS? NIX.
IS. s." in Lexington Advertiser Hits
Nail On Head.

We clip the following from tie LIZ
ngton Advertiser, whose correspon-
dent has a correct and right idea Of
the situation, and knows how to eX-
press himself:
II is a fact that the planting Of
large crop Of cotton next year will
cause the price TO seek, possibly, lower
levels than the present market has
found. 1t is true, also, that leaving
the question of acreage with those di
rectly interested is very democratic
and also very fitting. BUT the idea
that we have somehow got into our
heads that congress, or anybody else.
is going TO help US solve this problem
is FALSE. We are facing cr'sls
that involves the wherewithal to obtain
the necessities Of life for ourselves and
loved ones. Realizing that we were up
against a hard proposition, we maac
oyersles to congress to lend " q

helps the farmer only by sending out
