Nj Hanson says that Mr.. Gompers

Il note that Samuel Gompers has
stated that Reds are nor influencing

Japan Sees Threat
OfIndependent Aid
BY u. S. to China
American Refusal to Ac-
ccpt Toxic Proposal and
Loan by Chicago Bank Be-
lieved to Indicate Decision

TOXIC, Nov. s (By The Associated
Fress).-The refusal of the United
States government to accept Japan's
proposal to exclude certain districts of
eastern Inner Mongolia and South
Manchuria from the scope of the in
tcrnational consortium for the exten-
sion OF financial aid to China, and the
simultaneous announcement of an in
dependent loan of $4,000 900 to China
by Chicago bank, secured ny to-
bacco and wine monopoly, is taken here
as hint that unless Japan sees her
way clear to join the consortium on
reasonable terms the United States
may adopt the policy of meeting
Chlnas needs without waiting forma-
ton by the other powers of a loan
group.
The consortium question has come
strongly to the foreground as a prob
lem requiring immediate and frank ne
EQUATIONS. The only other POSSIBLE
Ganger OF comp cation between the
United States and Japanese govern
ments-the American complaint of last
Septem Der that Japanese troops were
not cooperating in the operation Of the
lranssl berian Railway-is believed to
nave been removed by the conciliatory
and dlgnitied nature Of the Japanese
reply, which promised future co0pera
ton,
Pooling of Powers Favored
Certain powerful business houses
have joined military circles in backing
the movement to exclude the stated
Monaghan and Manchurian zones
from the consortlum. Indications are
however, that le&ding bankers favor
unconditional pooling Of the power
for loan to China.
The spondent gains the impress
sion from talks he has had with those
Interested that the exclusion of certain
kinds Of loans, such as railroad con-
cessions. rather than the exclusion OF
definite territories. would be a basis OF
possible settlement.
il is likely the negotiations will be
lett in the hands of Ambassador Nor
ris, at Toxic. to be worked out on the
spot rather than to formal long dis

chine gun nests, broken artillery, mangled humanity and dead horses, turned back the trained veterans and flower of the German army, went over the top and stood with uplifted heads, the pride of America and the saviours of the liberty of mankind.
 But if the country for which the American soldier fought is to endure, if the blessings he helped to transmit are to remain, then the younger gen. erations must be taught that there are causes that can destroy a nation. Rome fell because wealth accumu ulat- ed and men decayed, and Germany is now conquered, crushed and craven because she exalted man above God, the material above the spiritual, and human authority above the divine. Authority is only respected according to the power and dignity with which it is invested and liberty is often an absurd word and many crimes and in- justices are committed in it's name.
 s'When God made man, He made him free and gave him an intellect and will. But when He gave him these faculties, it was with the under standing that the mind should accept His truth and reject error, and the will should follow His laws. But the tide of modern thought and practice is trying to sweep these fundamental truths away. We have partly suc- ceeded in propagating doctrines which tend to give false notion to genuine government and liberty-namely, that authority comes from the people and not from God, and that liberty consists
New Britain herald., 1919-05-26

in giving free scope to truth and er- TOT, good and evil, right and wrong, alike.
 But all right-minded men and wo- men must see that the results of such false nations would be a loose rein to popular passions a cynical scoffing at law, religion and morality, and the reckless taking of the lives of those whose only crime is the power with which they are invested. Against this poison we must guard the young! If

Washington, May 20.-Among spe-
cial war taxes which the president in
his message to congress suggested
should be eliminated are those on

tions, and on such manufacturers
products as automobile trucks and ac-
cessories pianos, sporting goods,

lection of them, involving innumer-
able cases of making small change
has caused much complaint from re-
tailers and purchasers.

NOM RAISING MORE
PURE BRED POULTRY

Lewis c. Taylor, Federal Exten-
sion Poultry Husbandman, with head
quarters at State College, n. NJ, was
here for two days this week and in
company with County Agent Peter
son visited several localities in the
county. Speaking Of better poultry,
Mr.. Taylor said; 1T is indeed graft
flying to note the progress that has
been made along the line Of better
poultry in Curry County during the
past year. believe that it is safe
to estimate that there is 100 percent
more pure-bred poultry in your coun-
ty than there was one year ago All
over the country there is a marked
tendency toward raising purs-bred
poultry, but the tendency toward I'M

SEVEN DAYS OF GRACE

A period of seven days of grace has been ex-
tended to Germany by the representatives of
the allied and associated governments in which
the German peace plenipotentiares may con-
cludc their study of the peace treaty and form
ulate such replies to the various clauses as
they desire.
The extension of time which originally
was to have expired ON Thursday, was set for
ward to Thursday, May 20, at the request of
the Germans who advanced the plea that more
time was required that they might formulate
arguments of much Importance With the
request by the plenipotenta for more time
comes from Berlin statement of the German
cabinet that Germany is unwilling to sign the
peace treaty The document is a reiteration,
although in stronger. words of the views of the
foremost statesmen in Germany that the seal
ing of the compact would spell the ruin of the
former empire.

HARVEST HANDS MAY
Be A BIG PROBLEM

Curry County is going to make an
enormous wheat crop this year. This
is an assured fact now. Nothing can
really knock us out of this crop but
some big hail storms and these Gala
mites rarely ever visit the entire por-
tion of county at one time. There
is also going to be big yield in all
parts Of the country and taking care
of the crop is the big problem now.
1t is going to require much extra
labor to care for the big acreage in
this county and the Chamber of Com
merce of Clovis wants to do every
thing possible to help the farmers Of
the county to get the necessary help
so that they can save their grain.
With this end in view it is requested
that all farmers who will want help
this year register their wants
either at the Clovis News office or at
the office of Ramey 4 Wilkinson. 1t
is desired that they state just exactly
how many men they will want and
about when. II is likewise desired
that those who will work in the har-
vest fields here this year register at
the same places, telling just what
kind of worI they are fitted to do.
This matter of labor is a serious one
and 1t will be only a few weeks now
before harvest will commence in this
county.
Heretofore many people have been
going from this section to Oklahoma
and Kansas to help in the harvest,
being lured there by reports of high
wages. This should not be the case
this year. There will be plenty Of
work in Curry County for every man
who wants to work this year and
there will be no occasion for anyone
desiring work during harvest time to
go elsewhere. There is much expense
occasioned by leaving home, and any
workman can not only make more
money by staying here, but will be
doing patriotic work by helping to
save the grain crop at home.

.CHAUTAUQUA CLOSED
SUNDAY NIGHT

The Chautauqua closed Sunday
night after a most successful six days
program. The attendance was good
throughout the entire series of enter
tainments. Possibly the largest
crowd attended the Thursday night
concert by the Bersagliere Band and
music lovers appreciated this number.
The Harold Proctor Company and
Granville Jones entertained the peo-
pie Friday afternoon and DR.. Chas.
H. Barker on Friday night told folks
how to keep themselves in trim and
live 100 years. Most everyone who
heard his lecture has been doing
stunts this week trying to either make
themselves young again or to keep
from getting old.
DR.. Frank L. Loveland's talk on
the "Perils of Democracy" Saturday
afternoon met with much favorable
comment, while the Saturday night
play 1T Pays to Advertise was not
only one of the best patronized, but
stood out as one of the biggest num-
bers Of the Chautauqua. This was
decidedly the best play that has been
given during the three years Of the
Chautauqua, and in the opinion Of
the News, ttis number and the lec-
ture of Ralph Parlette on the first
day, were the two best received num-
bers of the Chautauqua.
On Sunday afternoon the Premier
Artists gave a good program and Bob
Finch gave a needful talk on Com
munity Cooperation. The Premier
Artists gave another program Sun
day night which met with rounds Of
applause. Their program was well
selected and exceptionally well rem
dered.

will average .65 per S100 this year.
according to the New Mexico Taxpay-
er's association. Last year 0tero
county reported the highest tax rate,
1886 per 500 Of assessment. San
Jaun county came next with $3.32;
then Union, 1882; Roosevelt $3.0i
and Eddy, $3O3, these maximums
being due mostly to experiments in
municipal ownership. The counties
in which the rate was between SO and
SO were; Curry, $3.50, where the
water works levy at Clovis made
taxes high; Bernalillo, $2.s5; Quay,
$3.50; Grant S2,77; Lea, $2.76; So
corro, $2.75; Colfax, sal; Dona

$2.O7 Sandoval $i,s6; Taos, $l.4S.
The total amount Of tax levies was
$6,600,216.60, or about as much as
the people Of the state spend for the
upkeep of their automobiles.
The county levies took more than
one-half Of the total amount, $780,
49S.ll; the state took about 30 per
cent, 81 $3.50 and that included
all the levies for state institutions,
twenty or more in number; state spe-
cials took $l775S1.57; school dis
.ricts 1894, ,323.56; county specials,
$40, ,434.71.
As to the collection, the New Mex
leo Tax Review, published, says TAX
collections over the state have not
been as heavy for the first half of
the year as is customarily the case.
~" The poorest showing was made
by Dona Ana county where, of SS47,-
520.GS not single solitary cent is re-
turned as having been collected, while
the best report is from Guadalupe
county, where of $193,221.6S due,
1857, s6S.19 has been paid" Colfax
county had collected 1927 per cent ;
Bernalillo, 45.5S per cent; Lincoln,
1880 percent. Sierra, 46.65 percent T;
Mora, ALSO percent; Valencia, 41.4s
per cent.
