 Now that wartime affairs are looked upon in the light of more sober judgment than was. natural for them to be seen during the period of stress and strife, many questions are bobbling up as to the why's and wherefores of different things. One question frequently heard in Washington is as to why the Allies, and especially the Uni ted States, did not have more re liable Information as to the serious condition of the Germans and the near collapse of their war machine several months before the armistice was signed. If the allied secret ser vice was effective and had secur- ed information that Germany could not absolutely hold out for another sixty days, or three months at the longest. was such information inn parted to the proper headquarters in this country? If so, was 1t jus tifiable to continue to spend vast sums on certain projects that could have been quickly curtailed, instead of waiting for an armistice!

HOW WILL SHE voTE'

According to Mir. McAdoo, wo- men will wield a powerful influence over the political destinies of the future. He goes further, and as serts that women will not adhere to party lines when great issues are at stake, but will vote boldly for the thing which is for the public good, without respect to the party promulgating it. If this should prove true it will be the very thing which the great founders of the suffrage movement hoped to see. In refutation of this theory comes the information that the women in at least one state are being organiz- ed by their leaders along distinct party lines. State, county, and town have their leaders and political meetings. Party propaganda is to be extended as widely as possible followed by the men. This is what the politicians hoped to see. If tne hope of winning the women vote leads to higher ideals, better meas. ures in each of the great parties. this party division will be a good thing. If it simply broadens the old style party politics by the addition of thousands of women who vote for measures not because of then soundness but because of the party which introduces them, politics vii
 stay exactly where they were be, fore the first woman voted. Mir

 cbatoic affairs in general with wnlcn the administration and the lawmak,

That work of the Legislators is much like the cSulse of justice, slow but sure, the dtn&st calm prevail ing and nobody. dosing itheir heads or gtheir tempers. The. seriousness of the times is reflected, however, in the stern faces of the lawmakers and in the determined way in which they go about their duties. Nothing is being considered in nasty man ner, yet steady progress is being made, even if it does not look that way on the surface. Cheerfulness prevails and the feeling is current that, desipte the clamor for this, that and everything, the country has not gone to the bow-wows yet and is a long ways off from doing so.

 That the decision is final to let American dead rest abroad, and not have the bodies of soldiers removed to this country, is shown in the request of Secretary of War, Bak- CT, for $200,000, to care for the graves of American boys buried in the soil of France.
 Senator Watson of Indiana is the friend of the newspaper pub- fishers, therefore the friend of news paper readers, and that includes everybody. He believes in en- couraging home industry, and asks an appropriation of $100,000 to in- vestigate the approximate amount of wood pulp in this country from which news print paper can be made. The Secretary of Agricul- | -ture is to carry out the project. Two-thirds of the paper used by publishers is made from wood pulp imported from Canada, and the SUD- ply in that country is steadily di- minishing.

Wynne Newspaper
 Praises Marinnna

In the last weeks issue of the Wynne Progress, Editor Osborn took the citizens of Cross county to task for their lack of public spirit and unity and by contrast called attention to the way public improvements are backed up by the people in Crittenden, St. Francis and Lee countes. The Progress said:
 "Over in Crittenden county and down in St. Francis and Lee they have their hot politicial fights, same as they do in Cross county, and many bitter political feuds have been waged in each, but when it comes to doing things for the good of their respective commun- ties they get together and act as a unit. THEY DON'T FIGHT THEIR OWN MONEY like we do in Cross county. Over in Earle, for in- stance, they have exceeded the law ful tax levy several mills to make city and county improvements such as paving the streets and even gravehng the alleys. When two ol three obstructionists threatened to enjoin the projects on the basis that the levy was illegal, they were waited upon by a committee ot progressives who politely but firm ly informed them that if they were not pleased with the modus op. perandi, they could sell out and leave. The result is that there i are no injunction suits in Earle and today nearly half million dollars are being invested in permanent municipal improvements.
 l Down in Marianna they also work for the general good in per. Feet harmony, and nearly the en. tire county of Lee is organized into one big good roads improvement district, that will ultimately result Tn net work of good roads all owe, the county leading into Marianna Here we can't get neighbors t, harmonize in the construction o1 one little measly four-mile road.
