We must enter into this treaty and
entering into it, rearranging the map
of Europe and the world in the inter
est OF the rule of. for and by the
various peoples of the world and to
secure to them the blessings OF per.
manent peace, the ex-president says
that we have got TO see it through
We can not make such a treaty" he
says, land then run away from it as
our abandoned child"
Mr.. Taft writes a very clear, lucid
and convincing article and it seems
TO US that it is irrefutable
He concludes mis- article as follows:
"Tf we make a treaty to fill the out.
lines of President Wilson's message
of January 8, as amended by the al
lies, we shall have the job OF its exc
cution, lasting a number OF years It
will not execute itself Under it we
shall create new republics less
than ten. carved out Of the old domi1-
ions Of our foes. Their peoples are
not trained in self-gOvernment Thew
will have jeal0usieS and ambitions.
Their relations to the governments
and peoples OF our foes will not be
certainly harmonious As we have
give them birth. We shall have to
watch over them and protect them
More than that, ne may have to re-,
strain or chide them
TO create ten new democracies
like these in Middle Europe. instead
Of promoting peace. will be to pro
mote war. unless the nations making
the treaty keep a firm hand on them
and their neighDors.
How can the treaty De made to
achieve its purpose instead Of defeat
ing it except by a league Of nations
to command its enforcement
How can the United States. if itI
joins in the treaty, avoid its share OF
the responsibility?
How are the colonies of Germany
to be administered in the interest of
the backward nations except by an
agency OF the league Of nations?
How are the rights Of contending
parties, under the treaty. to be set
tied except by an impartial court?
How are differences not capable
of settlement by a court to be com
posed save by a conciliating commit
tee of a league OF nations?
I'VE have put our hand to the plow
and we cannot turn back"

is THE "LA8oRER WORTHY OF
HIS HIRE?~
Editor Banner:

Editor Banner:
The "dowu-trodden farmer" the
unfortunate consumer" the poor
retail grocer" have all told their tale
of woe" through the columns Of your
estimable paper. and one after an.
other have fastened the blame for all
their lamentations on the back OF the
laborer-he is the cause Of it all.
Is there no one in all the land to
speak word for him?
1t was not Mr.. Samuel Gompers. nor
Mr.. William A McAdoo, who first
proclaimed that the "Iaborer is wor.
they Of MS hire" It was one might
Ter than either OF these. yet since thu
morning stars first sang together"
the toiler has been the burden bear
er Of the world"
As he leans upon MS hoe, or his ak,
OF his pick, ne carries upon mis- back
the weight Of centuries.
Because Mr.. McAdoo recognized as
the 'Ia6orer is worthy Of his hire.
the lab0rer is made the Jonah or the
goat for al the high cost of living.
Has he not all through the ages
been the newer OF wood and the
toter Of water?' Has it not fallen
to his lot to fell the forests, explore
the mines, hew the wood, make the
brick build the houses cultivate the
farms, construct railways; perform
all manner Of mental service. yet
what have been his luxuries or his
enjoyments? He has had to buffet
the stress and storm of weather,
sleep on pallets in shacks, live on
coarse fare. clothe himself in coarse
fabrics, and, in truth and in fact. has
been compelled ito eat bread in the
sweat of his face
No Down stone fronts. no Iimou,
sines, no purple and fine linens, no
place at the peace conference for him.
Throughout the ages he has had to
live on the crumbs that have fallen
from the rich mans table"
Why not tote fair? The five dollars
the Iaborer receives now for his hire
buys no more shoes than the dollar
and half he received before the big
world war. thugs no more meat, nor
bread. nor sugar, nor syrup, nor pota.
toes, nor dry goods of any descrip-
ton.
II he receives no more pay for his
labor than he did in normal times and
is forced to pay the present prices
for foodstuffs and clothing. it would
mean nakedness and starvation for
himself and family.
Don't begrudge the laborer his hire
or fasten on him the entire RESPONSE
bility for the high cost OF 1lv1ng."
Let's be fair, just and tolerant.

WHY BOYS LEAVE THE FARM

The Tarheel state has given birth
to rural bard who is yet in his
youth and he. perhaps. has solved the
problem why boys leave the farm"
He plaintiveIy tells us that my gar
den truck was dads to sell and mine
to hoe" That deadened his ambition
an killed his ordor One must candid
ly confess that there is little encour-
agement in planting a garden with
that result
If the boy is member Of the boys
corn club let him have for his very
own all the proceeds and profits OF his
crop: if ne is a member OF the boys
pig club. let all the pigs ne raises be,
tong to him to do as he pleases with
them, but encourage him to buy more
sows so as to Increase his bank &C
count.
If the daughter is 3 member OF the
girls canning club or butter and egg
club let her have all the profits accru-
ing from her industry. and both the
boy and the girl will take more inter
est in everything pertaining to the
farm and will not be 50 anxious TO
leave it to find more remunerative if
not more congeniai occupation in the
city. And this young North Carolina
bard will no longer sing such ditties
as the following:

attention t. tae fact that men were
being discharged from the camps and
saipyards, and some OF them might
be secured for the farms IN the state
where help h4s been scarce Mr.
TraNier enclosed In appeal he had
made to county agents. which should
have wide publicity:
The plan of the wa department il

portazt to you and to the farmers q
your county. especially TO those who
are in need Of farm help. A plan has
been arranged so that this help can
be secured quickly. and where most
needed. In other words. it Will help
the soldiers to secure position before
being discharged and will enable
those who need the services of their
former employees or anyone else
whom they might desire. to make
reQuisitiOn for such services The
plan adopted requires a letter from

the soldier; or, in case the soldier mas

fathers farm, letter from a relative
or friend, asking for his release, max
ing a statement of mis- services and
his ability TO perform them.
AS an illustration: A farmer
knows OF one or more farm helpers
in military service. He usually has
the address indicating in what camp
they are located or he can secure
same. With this Information. he sim
ply writes letter stating his desire
to have the services of the soldier
giving reasons. addresses the letter
to the camp commandant and the re-
lease is secured, provided the soldier
cares to accept the employment offer.

I'm case the address of a soldier is
not known, a letter addressed to the
adjutant general, war department,
Washington, D. c., enclosing the let

the camp commandant in which the
soldier is located.
In order that the agricultural in.
cerests may secure the most desirable
men for the farm, it is imperative
those engaged in agriculture make
requisition to the war department at
once
You should get this information to
your farmers at the earliest possible /!

glad to cooperate by publishing this
information, and thus help in getting
the necessary help into your county
