Austrian Cabinet has stopped the emf

age OF thirty-four. They will not be per-
mitted TO cross the frontier unless they
can produce a passport. and the local
authorities have received Instructions 20
issue such papers only 10 applicants who
can prove that they have performed their
military service. and have been passed
into the "Landsturm." the last line or
reserves for home defence This really
means twelve years OF service for ths
average man.
The decree promises 10 be even more
sweeping in its effects than would a.
FIRST appear. IL applies not only to bona
nde emigrants leaving for the United
States or Canada. but IL Will also pre-
vent many thousands Of farm laoorers
from going to Germany for field work
and harvest as has been the custom every
summer. And. further, since the decree
makes no mention OF any exceptions. il
is supposed that walters tailors me-
chanics and other workers who want 20

made because the military authorities re-

FIRE PREVENTION PERIOD

The proclamation of Mayor Ainsle setting

step towards the making of Richmond a better
place In which to live.
It means that those who public

same. 1t means that the risk of fire in great

curative for fire viii be less used than it's proven

when a citys fire department is in frequent use.
This, however, does not mean that the Richmond

club members are all led by prize lists and
honor rolls to wrest more and more from tho
land And it Is all done in order that land
may pay a fair interest on the investment
Practically nothing is being said about how the
increased product shall be divided between the
landowner and the tenant--the owner ana the
worker. Neither is anything said about now
the increased production benefits the owner.
Yet increased production invariably raises the
price of land The increased production Is to be
brought about through the rural school. through
institutes through farmers clubs and unions
and eventually, through the energy OF the
worker-be he farmer mechanic. Then 1t
will be capitalized by the landowner Increased
capitalization follows increased production as
night follows day.
1t is excusable to the State system of
education to increase wealth production and
property values: but its paramount purpose
should be the production of manhood. woman
hood moral citizenship. and. almost above all.
Justice in social relations
The public school Is the most democratic
institution in the worlds greatest democracy.
Let's so maintain it and build real men and
