GOVERNMENT INFLUENCE

The Bethlehem Steel Company Is carrying on a widely advertised campaign against the movement now on foot by the United states government to manufacture it's own armour plate.
 Tc date seven circular letters have reacheI all newspapers of the country calling their attention 10 the fact that the corporation has not changed excessive prices to the government.
 Arguments are waged that the necessary armour manufacturing capacity for the needs of the Unit ed Sta. es already exists. They as sert that their facilities are all ready at the disposal of the war department. They then ask the question that since all these con Girious exist if 1t would not be waste. when no economy can be realized to spend government mon ey to duplicate facilities already adequate.
 It seems that the corporation is proving a case against themselves. In their campaign literature they are making a denial of utterances which are on record in the congress siouaI documents. Whether or not the government decides to build its own factory, we must all agree that the shake has been bene' ftciaI, as to prove to large cou- cerus, seeking to bottle the gov ernmeut, hat the United States can elemhate them from the field.

In Memory of J. It. Smith.

When il became known that our
friend J. T. Smith was no longer
permitted to dwell among us many
hearts were made sad, and when we
considered that we should no longer
enjoy the friendship of this sweet
spirited neighbor we realized that
the world is made poorer by his de-
parture.
]. T. Smith, as young man, came
to Ellis county from Salvisa, Ken
lucky, and settled near the little
town of Boyce Here by industry
and economy he accumulated enough
not only to give his family the COM
forts OF life, but many Injuries. In
his home and with his family he
was ever kind and indulgent and II

trait of character it would be that of
unselfishness. His first thoughts
we're always of others. There was no
harshness in his nature, but love
ruled his life. neighbor, who had
! lived by him and loved him for a
quarter of a century, said, -. 7.
| Smith never had an enemy" and the
writer, after an acquaintance of thir-
| ty years. never knew him TO harm a
person by word or deed, His life
was so gentle, and the elements SO
mixed in him, that nature might
stand up and say TO all the world,
"phis was man. He was your
friend and he showed himself friend

ans of the state of Texas.

thing to be desired,
