The King and Queen of Belgium are
nearing our shores on the George
Washington for their visit to this
country. They will be received here
with warm welcome, not so much be-
cause they are visiting royalties as
because they are the rulers of that
brave little nation whose heroic repre-
sentative, Cardinal Mercier, has just
been received here with honors more
than royal and whose welcome is
sincere and genuine. Belgium has
won place in contemporary history
and will hold in its annals for all time
to come, as a hero and a martyr
among nations, for it was by its sacri-
flee that it stopped the Huns and
saved Europe for civilization. And in
that sacrifice the great Cardinal and
the King, who preferred principle to
interest, were the leading figures.

Smyrna can boast of as good streets
as any country town its size any
where. Town Council has gone to a
great expense to rebuild streets the
past year; now let them attend to the
all-important thing of keeping them
clean. Dirty streets are no credit to
a town, and to good streets like
Symrna's they are decided refec-
tion upon our municipal government.
Systematic cleaning should be done at
all times, and Council should see to it
that it is properly done.

The farmers complain that they
have to pay more for their hired men
and more for implements and seed
and fertilizers, and they are barely
able, at present prices, to make both
ends meet. "That is the way ever
body talks" says the Philadelphia
Record. Nobody admits making big
profits. When the angler finds a pool
where the fish bite as fast as he can
pull them in he does not advertise the
fact. If he is rash enough to brag
about the amount of his catch, he is
careful not to tell where he made it.
"There is one infallible test, how
ever, of whether farming pays. 1t is
the value of farm land; it is the price
men are willing to pay for land on
which to raise wheat and corn and
cotton and cattle. An Iowa banker
told the Farm Mortgage Bankers As
sociation in Chicago that during the
last year the price of farm land has
advanced so to 100 per cent. in the
Middle West, and the increase for the
whole country was Is to 80 per cent.
Twenty years ago meeting of
Iowa bankers and real estate men
was held to take action in case farm
land should go to $37.5O an acre. TO
day. said Mr.. Cavanagh, much of
that self-same land is selling for 10
times which occasioned alarm then
Smyrna times., 1919-10-01

"Iowa is perhaps the best of the ag-
ricultural States, and the Middle West
is choice locality. But farm values
have advanced markedly almost ev-
erywhere. The Department of Agri-
culture reports that the average grade
of plow lands was worth about $74.31
per acre on March 1 this year, COM
pared with S6S.SS a year ago, $62.17
two years ago, and $3.50 three
ago. The average increase of three
years is 1882, or little over 20 pei
cent.
"The advance in Pennsylvania was
an even 20 per cent, from 500 to sou;
even in Massachusetts it was Sc an
acre; in Virginia it was $13 an acre
or a good deal more than one-third; in
South Carolina it was $14 an acre, OF
not much less than one-half; IN Geor'

While citizens of Clayton are try
ing to make it appear "ideal" to have
the dupont Boulevard take its course
from "Woodlawn" farm, west Of
Smyrna to Duck Greek, the Engi-
neering Department, the State High
way Commission and General DUPONT
himself see the feasibility of the east
e1n course in the straight line it will
take from the southern limits of
Smyrna to Prior's Corner, just above
Duck Creek. The route is shorter,
more feasible, and more strictly fol-
lows General duPont's desire for as
few bends as possible. Besides this,
Smyrna has already granted the
Highway Commission and Mr.. dupont
1OO-foot right of way and General
DUPONT has appropriated $4,000 for OBJ
tanning the right of way. Were it not
for the fact that Smyrna wants Lake
Como restored and the route west
thru the Cats Lot would virtually
cleave the proposed site for the Smyr-
ma Special District Consolidated High
School, and the further fact that the
Duck Greek pond would have to be
Smyrna times., 1919-10-01

crossed in going straight to Pryors
Corner, it would be nice to have the
Boulevard between Smyrna and Clay
ton, but Clayton, unfortunately, is off
the "old Kings Highway" and to ac-
commodate this wideawake and pro-
gressive town would mean extra
bends and mileage that General du-
Pont is striving so hard to eliminate.
Hence, the eastern route is declared
to be more feasible in every way.

Allies May Punish
Ex-Kaiser William
For the World War

The plan of the council of four
to have Belgium prosecute the
former German emperor on the
charge of responsibility for the
war is meeting with objections which
are again bringing up the whole SUBJ
ject for revision.
Those who have the matter in hand
divide the question of war RESPONSE
bilities into two distinct classes. The
first class includes militar yand ma
val offenders, like General Ludendorff
and Admiral Won TirpitZ, and those
accused of various excuses against
the usual rules of warfare. The Sec
ond class includes former Emperor
William, ex-Chancellor Won Beth
mann-Hollweg and others whose Of
Tense is chiefly of a political nature.
Concerning the first class, that of
military offenders, it is agreed that
tial suitable fto undertake such mill
tary trials, but it is pointed out
that every country has it's own syS-
tenn of court-martial for military Of
tenders within its borders. This has
developed the suggestion that. these
tial and act under a single military
procedure codified from all the sepa-
rate military codes. A joint court
martial would thus be constituted
capable of dealing with offenders of
the first, or military and naval class.
Concerning the political offenders,
it is said that a tribunal is not neces-
sary and would be ineffective, owing
to the legal immunity of political Of
that the action against Napoleon L
furnishes a precedent for the deter
mination of the allied course as
general mea sure of policy.

LONDON. April 21.-Sebastopol
has been evacuated by the Crimean
government. which is proceeding to
Constantinople The government of
Sebastopol is now in the hands of

This announcement is made in

that after negotiations with the

tice, expiring April 25.
Early in April the allied troops
were driven back in Crimea when
the Bolshevik forces captured Pere-
kop. The isthmus of Perekop had
been fortified by the allies for the
protection Of the Russian naval base
at Sebastopol, but the allies were
greatly outnumbered and have been
continuously pressed back.

Unequal Distribution

OfSouthern Republics
Argentina, Peru, Uruguay.

AFSeHCllld, H6Fu, Uruguay.
These are first in South America
to feel the touch Of Bolshevism.
Why?
Previous dispatches have told the
story of Argentina, of her land sys-
tenn which centers most of the
wealth Of the country in the hands
of few, of her unjust taxation
while the poor are taxed to the
limit, Of her industrial exploitation
by foreigners.
Uruguays story is bit differ
ent.
But there is the same unfair dis
tribution of the land and the same
concentration of wealth as in Ar
gentina. Nearly 80 per cent of the
lano is owned by less than 5000
of the country's population and
are foreigners. Moreoyer the in
vested capital of the country is
nearly all in the hands of I hundred
persons Of native birth and a group
Of foreign investors who take out of
the country money which should be
turned back to develop it's resources.
Taxes Are Heavy
To aggravate this condition, the
country, while containing great agri-
cultural opportunities. is subject to

Peru has little more than a half

half of mixed races from inter-

trouble is most readily fomented.
Envious of the full blooded whites
and working for small wages they
are easily stirred to revolt. The
political graft which permeates the
country strengthens the hatred for

WASHINGTON, April 21.-A new
fight on the federal farm loan board
appears to be developing. Members
of the board reported today they
had received Samples" of ''propa-
gauda" seeking Withdrawal OF tax
exemption privileges for bonds OF
the farm loan system. The fight
against the board promises to come
to a head with the reconvening of
congress.
Opponents Of the tax exemption
for farm loan bonds are advocating
the elimination of the privilege on
the grounds that the government
not taxing the bonds" according TO
Herbert Quick, board member. He
asserted that the attack is being
fostered by farm mortgage bankers,
many Of whom. he said, had been
forced to misunderstanding on inter-
respect boapd members said they
were inclined to believe the propa-
ganda was merely an attempt to re-
Vive the bitter fight waged by the
money lending interests a veal ago.

farm land bonds. He said the. tax,
if assessed, would be so small as

According to the board, farmers in
the high interest rate territories
have realized the opportunity pre-
sented them by the government;
Where the prevailing. open market
rates have run as high as 10 per
cent. or even II per cent, local as
sociations have increased at the rate
of 200 per cent per month in the
last year, Mr.. Quick reported.
The war has caused an unprece-
denied amount of borrowing by the
farmers. according to the figures. He
declared the local banking houses
had raised their interest rates, and
as a result when loans expired, the
farmers allied themselves with the
local farm associations and employed
government money to develop the
lands.
This spread Of the farm loan sys-
tenn, Mr.. Quick said, is responsible
for the renewed efforts of opponents
of the plan. It was understood meas

these to have certain power to
control over public institutions, court
of justice and so on, together with
the right to place bills before the
parliament. If reforms proposed were
rejected the councils would arrange
to take popular vote"
Haase informed the correspondent
that he did not consider a reaction
airy coup impossible in Berlin, but
that ne was convinced that such
control, if it were acquired, could
not last more than couple Of
months if indeed it endured as long.
