The suggestion of Sir Robert Baden

The suggestion Of Sir Robert Baden
Powell. head of the British boy scouts,
that the millions Of boy scouts
throughout the world celebrate the
signing Of peace by a world chain of
bonflres, has been adopted by the boy
scouts Of America, has been announced
by the national headquarters Of the
organization in New York. The 367,-
0s3 boy scouts Of the United States
will light great fires in all sections OF
the country on the night the treaty is
signed and hold appropriate ceremo-
nies. Fire will be taken beforehand
from the statue Of liberty in New York
and the flame will be carried as far as
possible in lighting the beacons "oi
liberty" it was said.
The Enquirer does not feel called
upon to advise the people Of Kings
Mountain township what they should
do with reference to voting the town
ship road bonds they now have under
consideration. 1t Is the people OF
Kings Mountain township who are
managing the thing, who are to pay
the taxes and administer the funds
II the bonds are voted, and it is not
our business to offer any arguments
in a matter that they are fully quail
flied to handle TO themselves. We
have been requested, however. to say
and we take pleasure in complying
with the request, that unless those
interested take 1t upon themselves to
hustle for more signatures, there is q
probability that the election will not
be called. In matters Of this kind 1t Is
not sufficient to leave signing Of the
petition up to the volunteer action OF
such freeholders as may be necessary
q fill out the required rumber. There
are no doubt in the township many
freeholders who are willing to sign
and who have not signed for the sim
pie reason that they have not had the
opportunity; but these are not apt to
sign unless they are hunted out and
requested to sign.

soLsHEvISM IN HUNGARY.
How the Working Glasses Have Taken
General CHARGE,

Following the practice put into ef-
feet by the Russian soviet government
at Moscow bankers in Budapest have
become figure heads while soviet
clerks administer the business. Rents
no longer are paid to landlords but to
the government, which Is represented
by the jabiotors. The stores have been
inationalized and the heads Of factories
have been replaced by those elected by
the workmen.
The banking business is being hand
icapped under the new regulations. NO
one is allowed to draw out more than
$100 except in the payment OF salaries.
A check must be signed by all the
trustees before it is submitted to a
bank where 1t Is honored on the con-
dition that the trustees Of the institu-
ton are shown to be employees.
During the period in which inven-
tories are being taken all stores are
closed except for the sale OF food and
drugs.
+ Thousands Of refugees are travelling
toward Vienna. All are deprived OF
their belongings at the frontier II they
attempt to pass tho border without
being searched.
Members Of the wealthy class have
resolved to tarry in Budapest and await
events. Cour tess Mary Karolyi, a cou-
sin of Count Karolyi, who recently
resigned as provisional president Of
Hungary is quoted as saying:
I'VE have been reduced to Is acres
of land and one horse. 1t Is better to
homeless We have got to live some
where, so it will be here"
There are but two classes In Hun
gary-aristocrats and peasants. The
republic seemingly Is more Russian
than German.
All estates have been appropriated
by the government. American officials
are being we'll treated by the Hun
garian officers, and American cour-
iers are allowed to pass in and out OF
Budapest without hindrance. Tele-
graph service Is restricted and slow.
Count Karolyi's position has not
been damaged by the new regime. ac-
cording to political observers, who say
he cleverly vacated his position as pro-
visional president by shifting respon-
sibility for the course Of events to the
Allies and then urging resistance
against the entente which resulted In
a union of the Social Democrats and
the communists.
The railway. strike in Hungary was
followed by the engineers leaving their
trains at whatever place they happened
to be when the strike was called.
Trains loaded with hundreds OF pas
sengers were left standing in the lone
liest places. ,
In Czecho- -Slovakia 1t Is reported
that uprisings have occurred. News
of the Hungarian Bolshevism has
spread rapidly and the revolution spirit
in West Ukraine and Roumania Ii said
to be increasing.

dent was without any foundation in

dent was without any foundation In
fact; that Chamberlain never visited
the British camp in the manner al
legged; that he did not 90 up In q
British airplane with or without per-
mission and that he did not bring down
any Germans in the manner stated.
So far, the court martial proceedings.
have brought very little light, except
that Major Maxwell the British off,
Ger who was in command Of the
squadron admitted that on meeting
Chamberlain in the Officers club In
London last January, he had asked
him: Are you not the fellow who
stole one of our 'Camels" at Toquin?'
And also it came out that when a
United States naval officer had under
taken to investigate the matter, he
reported that while he was satisfied
of the substantial correctness OF
Chamberlain's claim, he could get no
sworn testimony from any OF the
British officers for the reason that
should any Of them admit official
knowledge of the affair they would be
courtmartialed for having allowed. the
American to use one Of their machines
as he is said to have used 1t. or
course as to whether Chamberlain Is
telling the truth or lying it Is impossi-
BILE to Judge from the circumstances
and in view Of the well-known pro-
cedure Of such tribunals, whatever
the courtmartial may do about con-
firming or refuting Chamberlain's
claim. the public will still not be any
better satisfied. Illustration in point
ia to be found in the case Of those two
deserting Hardin negroes, who were
given honorable discharges after they
had been dragged from hole under a
horse stall. There is absolutely no
question of the guilt Of the accused,
among those who know the facts,
either in or out Of the army; but the
situation was this. If the negroes had
been convicted of desertion over pc
riod during which the records showed
what they were being paid for faithful
service, there would have had to fol-
low a courtmartial Of the officials re-
sponsible for the records, so to avoid
the unpleasant alternative Of sending
the company officer to Leavenworth,
the negroes were given honorable dis
charges. OF course to do this required
lying; but this does not appear to have
mattered.
