Car Strikes Mule.

On Friday night of last week the eleven
o'clock car from Frederick struck val
liable mule belonging to Mr. Ernest Pow
ell resulting in the breaking of both hind

next day. Conductor Eyler and Motor

Sheep Growers Association
Holds Meeting At City

Frederick county wool is worth twenty
cents more pound than the local price.
according to statement made by an ex-
pert from the U. S. Bureau of Animal
Industry, in a speech, before the Fred
erick County Sheep Growers Association
which met Tuesday afternoon in Fred
erick City Hospital Park. This expert,
a Mr.. Potts, advised the Frederick county
farmers to have their wool graded by an
expert and to consolidate and sell as a
bulk only when just price was obtained.
He pointed out that the local price for
wool was fifty cents pound whileit was
his opinion that the local wool was worth
seventy cents pound.
The association named committee of
four to see about the grading and market
ing of local wool The committee is
composed of Emory c. Remsburg, Frank
Stevens, Chas. Wertheimer and county
agent P. A. Hauver.
The meeting was called to order by
President Chas. Wertheimer, and after
hearings a report by its secreta ry Emory

demonstration which was the object of
the meeting. A large buck sheep be-
longing to former county commi ssioner

Mr.. Potts assistants. Sixteen and one
half pounds of wool were sheared. The
demonstration was cut short by rain.
During the business meeting prior to
the rain the association voted to enforce
the county dog law. Revenue from the
county dog tax last year totaled Sc, 343. rs
plus STA interest. Out of this 1867. S5
was paid for damages done by dogs to

eighteen tuberculosis patients had

One patient died during the year

One patient, a young girl, had

feeding, and are now able TO attend

Two patients shave improved TO
such a degree as to become wage
earners again
One patient is very Ill, for whom
there is small hope of recovery The
nurses do what they can TO make
him comfortable and give instruction
about the home for the physical
safety of other members OF the
household.
The sale OF Red Cross Christmas
seals has done much to support the
tuberculosis work of the Visiting
Nurse association. The nurses have
made recommendation to the social
service committee when eggs, milk.
fruit or. other sick diet has been
needed. The fund has been drawn
on to the amount OF STA during the

homes are regularly instructed as to
the danger of so contagious disease

ness.
Some patients have slept on

action on the part Of the allies. II
shows the four signatory powers
were pledged to-. keep the treaty
under cover. 1t begins with the
words: This treaty must be kept
secret" Again. in the secret tele-
gram from Sazonoff, the cars
foreign minister to the Russian am
bassador In Paris. dated Feb. "a,
1916, is revealed q further reason for
secrecy. This telegram says:
Political agreements entered into
among the allies during the war
should remain unalterable and are
not subject to revision. This refers
to- our agreement with France and
England about Constantinople and
the Straits, Syria and Asia Minor,
and also the London agreement with
Italy. All propositions as TO future
boundaries as to central Europe are
at this moment premature. but at tn
same time it is to be remembered
that we are ready to grant to France
and England complete freedom In FIX
ing the limitations OF the western
German boundary, depending that the
allies in their turn viii grant us free
dom in fixing our boundaries with
Germany and Austria"
Another reason for past conceal
ment of the secret treaties and the
existing desire for secret sessions at
Versailles Hes in the embarrassment
that would result from disclosure OF
the fifteenth article of the London
pact, which provides as follows:
France, England and Russia obi
gate themselves to support Italy in
her desire for non-admittance of the
holy see to any kind OF diplomatic
steps for the purpose of the conclu-
sion of peace or the regulation OF
questions arising from the present
war"
In view of such an understanding.
it is obvious that for the United
States, or any power not a party to
the secret treaties, to have know
ledge OF them, and thus be in posi-
ton to debate what the allies had
already decided upon as unalterable,
would be exceedingly embarrassing
1t would seem. therefore. that SO long
as these ''unalterable agreements"
exist, they make the peace discus
sions at Paris merely hollow form
Liberal leaders argue that they
should be cleared away at the in
stance of popular demand and that
the delegates should be at liberty to
negotiate a peoples treaty. based
upon present necessities rather than
past secret diplomatic sessions.

SECRECY OF
TREATIES
Powers Pledged to Paets and United
States Officially, if Unwittingly,
on Record in Support
of Them.

IBy Amos Pinchot, Written for the
United Press.l
WASHINGTON, Feb. THE Unii
ed States is officially, II unwittingly.
on record in support of the allied
secret treaties which would destroy
all possibility OF a just and lasting
peace, If carried out
This contretemps resulted when
Secretary Lansins-made a statement
in August, 1917, in response to the
public clamor for an official clarid-
cation Of Americas war aims. In
this statement he said there was no
need for declaration OF war aims,
because "the aims of the United
States have not changed since we
entered the war. We are substantial
Iy In accord with Great Britain and
France and nothing has occurred to
change our attitude"
Lansing, IL Is practically certain,
could not have been cognizant Of the
secret treaties when he made this
announcement II he were, it would
have meant that he was sympathetic
with the whole program of imperial
list anne1ations contained in the
AngIo-Franco-Russo-I treaty of
1915, or with the other secret diplo-
matte understanding which may be
compared to glorified rivers and
harbors bill, giving to each nation
which opposed Germany exactly
what it wants.
II the United States government
had been familiar with the allies
secret compacts and had then, with
full knowledge, put its seal OF APP
provai on them through the head OF
the state department, it would have
amounted 10 assuring the allies that
the American armies would fight I'M
til the guarantees in the secret
treaties were accomplished And the
very fact that President Wilson is
now in Paris strenuously opposing
fulfillment of many of these commit
ments appears to be positive proof
that Lansing's statement was predf-
Gated upon non-possession OF the
treaties.
In fact, the writer was informed by
a member of the bureau of public in
formation that the president himself
had complained of his inability TO
obtain copy of the secret treaties.
It would appear difficult to under
stand why the United States should
have gone to war without first
itself with all European
agreements relating to war aims. On
the other hand il would seem equally
hard to understand why the allied
allowed the United
States to remain in, ignorance. But
the sixteenth article of the treaty Of
1915 largely explains this peculiar
