PLAUSIBLE PLAN.
Wilmington Dispatch.

Wilmington Dispatch.
A. w. Mclean, in his presidential
address delivered before the North
Carolina Bar Association, seems to
have worked out a feasible plan for
handling international disputes fol-
lowing the world war. His suggestion
is not new, but he took up a recent
theory and worked it out along defi-
mite lines, and while some may say
that it's theory is fine but it's practi-
cability is questionable, all have to ad-
nit that it has earmarks Of reason
ableness.
There is no disputing that an effort
will be made when the peace council
finally gathers to formulate rules
looking toward preventing recur-
renee of international armed strife.
It will be one Of the first subjects to
be discussed around the council table
If the nations allied against; Germany
and her allies have the whip hand, it
is probable that some action calling
for disarmament will be taken. AS
Mr.. Mclean suggested, this council
will be made up Of representatives of
all the nations Of the world-bellig-
erent as we'll as neutral-and will be a
most fitting time for launching such
movement.
The federation of nations under a
constitution adopted by their repre-
sentatives in congress assembled ap-
pears to be the ideal plan. The ap-
pointment of a world court composed
of the greatest men of the times to
interpret international laws as passed
by the international congress; then an
international police to enforce the
court rulings, this police to be made
up of specified units of militia, each
signatory nation to bear its proper
tionate part Of the expense of main
tanning the federation's machinery, in
cluding the police. This police to be
used in enforcing the international law
against recalcitrants. Then the ma
tions to begin process of regulated
disarmament, this to proceed until the
safety point to be where there will be
minimum of safety is reached; this
sufficient power to control internal
disorders, and yet so small as to not
be a menace to neighbors. Mr.. Nc
Lean insists that all international dis
putes should be subject to judicial de-
termination, and are capable of such
The Monroe doctrine, which some
contend would stand in the way of the
United States participating in the
project, would be adopted by the ma
tions in the federation, according tt
Mr.. McLean's plan. He disposes o.
the matter of entangling alliances by
saying that Washington's famous dec
laration on this subject did not fore
see conditions of today and that were
the father of the country alive h,
would be among the first to advocate
this federation.
Mr.. Mclean is rightly Of the opin
ion that the leadership in this move
ment properly belongs to the United
States, as this country's participation
in the war is for no other purposs
than to benefit humanity; and furthel
because of our governmental expert
ences we are best fitted to elaberat,
the system which has been found 81
successful in America.

LIFE AT CAMP JACKSON.
Indian Soldier From Robson Writes
OF Camp Life-Everything Possible

Correspondence of The Robesonian.
Camp Jackson, S. c., July 9.-As l
am an Indian boy from Robson and
a reader of The Robesonian, decided
to write a short piece which might
be of interest to some of the folks at
home.
/ am in uniform. Twenty-one Of
US came to this camp last September
25th. We were escorted to the train
by great cheering crowd. The Red
Springs bands played number of
choice selections just before We board
ed the train. Our trip was not IN
pleasant. 1t was only a siX-hour run,
for our camp is not far from home.
That was a consolation at any rate,
for we were told that we could receive
visitors and occasionally could go on
furlough if our behavior was good.
This cantonment is revelation. AS
far as you can see there are build
iDgs. They seem we'll constructed and
there are good shower baths. We
live in long barracks that are like dor
,nitories. Everything possible seems
to have been done for our comfort.
TIE second day after we arrived
here in camp there was a great deal
of excitement. We did not seem to
mind the waiting very much, Though
as came to look back at it l realize
we must have spent two hours in the

RED CROSS
NURSES FOR OUR MEN
IN FRENCH HOSPITALS

Atlanta, July 1S.-To care for
American wounded sent from the
French sectors to French military
hospitals, the American Red Cross has
assigned one Of it's Red Cross nurses,
and a French and English speaking
Red Cross aid to every French hos
pital caring for our men, according
to a report just received from Paris.
Before these nurses were assigned
some Of our men who had been fight
ing in French regiments arrived at in
stitutions where no one could speak
English. A few of these soldiers
not recognizing the1anguage, thought
that they had been captured and
were in the hands of the Germans.
Doctors and nurses could not un
derstand the patients who therefore
had difficulty describing their symp-
toms and making clear their needs.
Where immediate operation was nee
essary it often was impossible to
prepare them.
Now every American on reaching
a French hospital is to be received by
an American Red Cross nurse who
attends to his reception and care. If
the nurse cannot speak French, her
aid interprets for the French hospital
staff. The aid also attends to corre-
spondencs for -7o,tr wounlleI. The
nurse and aid visit every American pa
tient frequently, to give treatments,
cheer him up, attend to his CORE
spondence or to explain his needs to
the French attendants. This plan has
worked so we'll that the Service de
Sante, the Medical Department of The
French Government, has requested the
Red Cross to have ready such teams
to place in every hospital receiving

ID HOLD WHEAT FUR
 GOVERNMENT PRICE

That owners of wheat need have no alarm in regard to the price to be se- cured for it. is the word that comes from the San Francisco office of the united States food administration which is in receipt of the following tel egram from Herbert Hoover:
 Enlarged demands by General Per shing for material, resulting from pro- Sress on western front, has necessi- tated temporary diversion of grain ships to his service. This temDorarilv curtails wheat movement from sea board and has filled our seaboard and terminal elevators, and thus checks movement. It has been reported that some farmers have become panicky and are selling wheat at less than gov ernment price. There is no occasion for this. If holders will have a little patience wheat will all be moved and full price secured by every grower"
 If, due to conditions referred to in MT. Hoover's telegram, growers in your vicinity are unable to market their wheat crops s promptly as they might wish, please assure them that the diff ficulty is only temporary and that ev- cry effort is being made by the Food Administration to insure a normal flow of wheat at the earliest possible mo- ment.

FULL-FLEDGED DISTILLERY IS
 FOUND IN CITY

new industry, not cataloeueu at the chamber f commerce. was unearthed in Phoenix yesterday when the police raided the prem ises of Ed. Beard on West Grant street and found -fIedged dis tillery.
 Revenue Officer Frank Blandy, who confiscated the apparatus and it's product, stated that there was a barrel and half of "p6mce" ready for distilation. five gallons of IA proof brandy and three gallons of "singlings" in bottles.
 The plant was equipped to d istiiI about four gallons a day. The method, as described by Chief of Police Brisbois last night, was to buy apple Jack by the case, pour it into a barrel to ferment and then distilI the hard cider into clear liquid. having the appearance and kick of nescal.
 An ordinary gasoline torch was used for the furnace. the burner coming up through hole in table, above which was suspended the still and worm. The latter was cooled by water, the condensed liq- ud falling into a bottle under the table.
 Beard explained to the officers that he was making the appIeiack for his own use and said that the still had been left there by young man who was here for his health. he using it to distlI water.
 Beard was taken into custody by Officers McGrath, Vadder and Grove and was turned over to United States Marshall J. p. Dil- lon. He is a stationary mining en- gineer, well known about town.

At the opening of the United States district court Judge A. C. Baker pre- scented the certificate of admission to the United States supreme court, dated in 1894, of Thomas Fitch who, 20 years ago, was a well known member of the Arizona bar, and the judge moved his admission to practice here. The silver tongued' orator then was sworn in.
 Thomas Fitch has returned to Ari- zona to reside and has his law office with Judge c. F. Ainsworth in the Central building. When asked his age. Fitch replied:
 "HearsaN testimony is not admissible in court. am living on borrowed time, but am conscious of no diminution in mental or physical powers. I will run quarter of a mile race with any member of the bar of equal age, or make an hours argument with him.

MT. Wilson was an active and efficient worker during the third loan, and has been working as chairman of one of the special committees canVaSslng in this city during the present campaign. He will be associated with Harry Thompson and J. C. Nevitt, the other city managers.
 Work of preparing the lists of sub scribers for publication early next week is already in progress. These lists will be printed each day, starting with the publication of subscribers to $50 bonds in Mondays papers. On Tuesday the buyers of s100 bonds will be published.
 People who are wondering about the value offourth Liberty bonds as an investment would do well to consider the action of the New York Life In surance company. This company, which had s37,O00, 900 in Liberty bonds in it's vaults, has subscribed for s29,- 900 900 worth of bonds of the fourth loan. making S66,000.000 in Liberty bonds held by this company.
Arizona republican., 1918-10-11

The nine counties of Arizona in the twelfth federal reserve district have subscribed $2,416,300 to the fourth Lib erty loan, or approximately SS per cent of the quota assigned, according to latest reports on file at headquarters last night Of this amount Maricopa county had raised S1 1.40,9 900, or over a million and half less than its quota. In fact tGe total subscription of the nine counties to date is less than the quota assigled Maricopa county, and is almost S4,G00000 less than the amount assigned to this portion of the state.
 That the deficiency in the amount raised is due largely to the failure of people who bought bonds in the third loan to subscribe to this loan is shown by the fact that the total number of subscribers to the fourth loan to date in this portion of Arizona is only 15, 232, as compared with a total of 37,025 subscribers to the third loan. In this county there have been only 7190 sub- scribers. as compared with 13, 800 to the last loan.
 All Made Public
 People who are putting off making their subscriptions, in the belief that large subscriptions are being held back for announcement at the close of the drive are badly mistaken, it was point ed out last night. Every subscription

received is credited as soon as possible, and the statements of the progress of the loan as printed daily represent ev- cry dollar that has been received up to that time. This policy of telling the public the facts about the loan will be continued by headquarters throughout the campaign.
 How the nine Arizona counties in the twelfth district stand in the fourth Liberty loan campaign is shown in the following report which contains the latest figures available last night:

Record of Counties
........ .s6.231,20O s2 1wo-Thirds Gone

As this part of Arizona raised S6, 963,750 for the third loan. it will be seen that the fourth loan, in spite of a steady increase during the past two days in subscriptions, is still far be- hind. Workers at headquarters are still hoping that the pace set in the last few days will develop into a mighty effort that will put the loan over the top bunt unless this becomes an actual fact, this community will fail to reach it's quota.
 Based on the record of the third loan, when over s6,900000 was raised in the nine counties, Arizona should at this stage of the campaign have s4,- 642,5O to it's credit. The campaign is two thirds over, but the subscriptions are only about one third raised.
 Didn't Want to Buy
 H. G. Savior, a Well-to-do farmer of the Mesa district, who lives on Rural Route ?, out of Tempe is the only bond stacker reported by workers of the Mesa committee as never having sub- scribed for Liberty bond of any issue. Saylor was brought into headquarters Wednesday night, and given an oppor tunity to explain the reasons for his refusal.
 He stated that he worshipped a god | who did not believe in war, and for that reason he did not want to buy Liberty bonds. When asked if he did not believe in the protection of his own home and family. he maintained that his god would look after him. He was even unmoved by an appeal from Private Todd, recently returned from the western front where he lost | his right hand.
 Only One Found 1 Saylor said he had given s25 to the Red Cross since the war began, but | that he had not supported it in any other way. Although he remained ob- durate in his refusal to buy bonds at the end of the session. it was stated last night that the investigation of this | particular case has only begun.
 Savior is not the only bond stacker who has been up before the commit l tee. Heretofore similar cases have resulted in the person investigated seeing the error of his way and pur- chasing Liberty bonds. It is under stood from what could be learned at l Liberty headquarters that the final 1 chapter in this case is yet to be writ l ten.
