The task of the conference was to

but the road to the achievement of
that end II not going to be an alto
gether smooth one to travel"
One trouble Is that the politicians
have been afraid of any system
which really meant the equalization
of tax assessments. The conse-
quenee has been that whenever there
was prospect of getting a tax COM
mission with power to level the in
equalities, somebody went about
whispering to the farmers that they
were about to have their taxes raised,
and then the bills were quietly
pigeonholed. State administration
have been bluffed in the same way.
The railroads and other public serv-
Ice corporations also were always
willing that tax reform should be
postponed until the next general as
sembly. The back assessment gang
usually was on the job protecting its
precious privileges.
But we have never believed that

one OF the chancellors OF Tennessee

ton that concerns Chattanooga
women more than any others be-
cause we have an election here on
July 8. Already the women have
voted in the primary election, which
constituted a regular election, as far
as some candidates were concerned,

date to collect proof to show
that his successful opponent
won by the votes of women.
Dur candidates we believe,
would all be pleased for the women

one would agree not to contest the

becomes a question for the election
commission to consider whether or
not they will issue instructions al

A CRITICAL WEEK.


An outbreak of French sailors at
Brest on the arrival of the crews
which mutinied in the Black sea, in
dicates the volcano under the sur
face in France and in other portions
Of Europe, After the mutineers had
been placed in prison it was stormed
by several hundred sailors sympa-
thetic with them, in an effort to re-
lease the prisoners. The Black sea
sailors protested against the use of
the French fleet against Russia The
sailors at Brest were suspicious that
they would be sent to the east. There
is q strong sentiment in the armies
and navies of the entente countries
against Russian Intervention. In
Italy sailors OF merchant vessels
went on q strike because a cargo
consigned to Admiral Kolchak, was
being handled. ,a esq
This, lis critical week in France.
A general strike is on. What pro-
portions 1t has reached has not been
made known. The parliament has
been torn with angry debates. If the
allied countries and the United States
were firmly behind the peace con-
ference there Is no question but that
Germany would sign. But the cabi-
net at Weimar may conclude from
the various incidents as above no.
ted that the working classes would
not support a renewal of the war.
This may encourage a resistance
that otherwise would not be met
with. However, the Germans may
mistake again the psychology of
other nations. Once the war is re-
newed the French poilu may be ex-
pected to do his duty bravely as he
has in the past.

LIGHT ON KoLcHAk.

IN the current New York Times
magazine supplement is a very in
teresting article on Russia by Louis
y. Cornfeld, who spent several
months In Siberia, and gives us al,
insight In to the character OF Admiral
hoichak, the head of the Omsk gov
eminent, and the men about him.
Cornneld says the majority of the
people OF Siberia believe that Kol-
chak liz rionarchist, but he thinks
That he is q liberal who, IL put in
power would act with justice and
common sense.
He says, however that there are
many reactionaries who are support
lng Kolchak. "They are" he saws.
the old nobility, members of the
wealthy aristocracy, royalists, mon
arehists. Octobrists and cadets Of
monarchical onvictions--rnen who
worship monarchy for the pomp GER
emony and gold braid of 1t, men who
thrive In the hothouses OF aristo-
cracy, because only In such an at
mosphere can they vegetate: men
VINO brood over the loss OF the great
lands which were theirs under car
ism, and who honestly think that
they ought to be given back to
them" and so forth.
He says that the army and royal
lists class IL the most dangerous.
They are of the type which brought
about the wholesale assassination of
officers when the soldiers finally
turned on them. He says these men
have no more use for Kolchak per-
sonally than they have for Lenine,
and would make as quick dispatch
OF him, II they were convinced that
they could not eventually reach their
goal by means of him. They dream
madly, he says ''of the return of
monarchy" Only the commercial
trading and professional classes sup
port this government. ''These classes
crave order--any kind OF order. so
long as they are spared a repetition
of bolshevist disorder But they con-
stitute only a mere handful of The
Siberian population. The poorer
classes, the mass of the people, hold
absolutely aloof, irreconcilable." This
is because, he says, that the dicto-
rial government has taxed them
heavily mad has done nothing con-
structive. They call themselves boil
shevists. but there is not so much
"out and out bolshevism as a des-
perate desire on the part of the
working and peasant people to find
an escape from the economic dis
tress into which the revolution has
plunged them"
The main strength Of the Kolchak
government is in its army. but Mr..
Cornfield found the soldiers OF both
armies much alike. only fighting be-
cause they were compelled to. 1t
makes little difference to the soldier
on which side he is fighting. They
surrender with startling indifference

break down a resistance than they |
do on force. So Mr.. Cornfield says: |
Under such conditions how much |
reliance can be placed in the Kolchak |
army is a matter Of pure specula-
tion."
