The foregoing dispatch, received
Saturday afternoon by The Times
Recorder from Capt. Chas. ]. Glid-
de n,indicates that Americus is about
to participate in one of the most spec
tacular advertising Stunts ever un-
dertaken, and also one so novel that
the name of Americus, once it is start
ed, will be published all over the
country in thousands of newspapers
and other publications. No freight
of the character or amount has ever
been carried by plane up to this time.
While Capt. Glidden was stationed
at Souther Field short time ago,
President Hightower, of the Chamber
of Commerce, in reply to an invitation
to Americus to have the local airmen
participate in the flights to Atlantic
City for the Pulitzer cross-country
trophy, offered to send bale of cot
ton by airplane, the proceeds to be
donated to the Red Cross. Later came
information from the war department
that the government flyers would NOT
be allowed to participate in these con-
tests. However, since then Capt. Gid
den has taken up his duties in New
York as head of publicity for the air
service, and apparently has been
promised the necessary order permit
ting the fight there with the bale of
cotton as a benefit for Victory Loan
campaign.
At the time the bale was offered by
the Chamber of Commerce, Lieut..
Vance, in charge of flying at Souther
Field and one of the most skilled air
men in the service, offered to pilot the
plane carrying its bale.
The sight of bale of cotton would
be sensation in itself in New York,
where hundreds of thousands of peo-
pie never saw bale of cotton, despite
the fact that it is bought and sold by
the million dollars worth on the ex-
change there every day.

SMERIC tNISN.

"The American idea. and the only
idea upon which free government can
be maintained. is that of free and
representative institutions, a yielding
of adherence 10 the will OF the great
majority. and a just and wise prot2C,
by established law, and faith in and
reliance upon the infinite truths Of
religion
This was one Of the emphatic state
ments made by Judge Carroll Il.
Graves of Seattle, during his address
at the annual memorial services Of
the local lodge of Elks at the United
Churches last Sunday afternoon
Continuing he said:
''As contra-d stingu'shed from the
foregoing statement. We have within
the four boundaries of this country 4
minority of radical thought, who. in
f1uenced by the atheistic teachings Of
Karl Marx. profess faith in the prin-
ciples of anarchism and syndcalism.
belief known as 'bolshevism'."
Quoting Michael Bakunin, the
founder of anarchism, Judge Graves
read from one of the anarchists open
addresses:
"The beginning of the lies that
have ground down this poor world in
slavery is God Tear out of your
hearts the belief in the existence of
God. Until this is done you will never
know what freedom is The first lie
is God. The second lie is the idea Of
right. When you have freed your
minds from the fear of God and child
ish respect for right, then the remain
ing chain that binds you-civiliza-
ton. property. marriage. morality
justice-will snap asunder like
threads. You must accustom your
self to destroy everything-the So
called good with the bad-for if an
atom of the old world remains. the
new one will never be erected"
Branding the I. w. w. as the an
archists and syndicalists of the United
States, Judge Graves read from their
constitution, and cited instances to
show that they were making practical
application of these doctrines in this
country, and hastily sketched the be-
Hefs which he said "cre now rampant
IN the country, and it is these things
which l refer to as great peril con-
fronting the nation.

tations of contempt for sworn duty
and sacred rites of citizenship as were
exhibited in the case of the Boston
police" he declared. Neither can
this country long endure if any man
or set of men, or any organization. be
permitted to place the hand of vio-
lence upon the throat of production.
