AMERICAN PAYS
 S0N'S RANSOM
PNNCHER PAYS RANSOM OF FIF TEEN THOUSAND PESOS FOR
 RELEASE OF SON.

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2S.-CH')
 The stato department received in formation today that John Thompson, an American rancher residing near the Mexican border, has paid the ransom of fifteen thousand pesos demanded by Mexican bandits for the release of his 14-year old son. The boy was Kidnapped Saturday by a band Of M"Xicans, who sent an immediate de mand 10 the father that he pay the ransom at once or his son would be kinnd.
 The state department understands that Thompson paid the sum upon ad vice of the Mexican government, as # was feared by the officials that the kidnaperS would kill the boy in case there was any delay. The informa- ton received by the state department says Mexico will reimburse the ranch CT for the sum expended to obtain the release of his son. As soon as the kidnaping was brOt to the attention of the department the matter was taken up with the Carranza government.

IT LOOKS BAD, RIVE

@The main reason why business is not
going ahead better is that most people ex-
pect prices to drop" declares Prof. Irving
Fisher of Yale University. "The merchant
is selling but not buying. The manufac
turer holds up the purchase of his raw
materials. People quote the disparity be-
tween prices and those prevailing before
the war, and decide they will not buy
much until present prices get down to nor
NAL. The fundamental practical question
confronting business men is whether the
general level of prices is going to fall. In
my opinion it is not going to fall much, If
at all" Then, in our humble opinion, the
people are going to continue to econ
omiez in their buying.

ABOLITION OF CONSUMPTION

The suggestion from Lloyd George that
all of the nations should abandon con-
scription is surely for home consumption.
1t is unbelievable that England should
take the position that she should be per-
mitted to maintain control of the seas
while all of the other nations disarm on
land.
The adjustment of CONSUMPTION or uni
versal service by any nation leaves it in
a defenseless condition as far as its land
forces are concerned. A large navy can

ADVANTAGES OF INDIVIDUAL mi
TIATIvE RECOGNIZED

Chairman Hurley of the U. S. Shipping
board comes out for private ownership OF
the American Merchant Marine. He says:
eve want to avoid the stagnation that
sometimes comes from red tape and bur
eaucracy."
Senator Cummins of Iowa says the rail
roads should be returned to private own
ership but held under government con-
toll.
Mark L. Requa, retiring director Of the
oil division of the fuel administration
says:
Government ownership of everything
in general is proposed as the irfallible
panacea for our alleged national ills. Such
action will not benefit humanity, but will
destroy the reward of individual efforts"
Americans can feel thankful for such
expressions as these which all appeared
in the press on the same date.
1t means that this nation is awakening
to the dangers of bureaucracy, paterral-
ism and socialism.
1t means that America is still to remain
the land where individual enterprise and
initiative is recognized and given an OBJ
portunity to develop.

ADVANTAGES OF SUGAR BEET
PRODUCTION

The growth of the sugar etindustry
will mean over $100,000,000 to- western
farmers this year. With proper encour-
agement and development of this indus
try this amount could be doubled and
treble in short time.
Those who have made careful study
of the subject are agreed that the intro
duction of sugar beets into the agricul-
ture of region results in good in many
ways. In the European countries where
beet raising has seen its geatest develop
ment, agriculture has a stability that is
not found in the newer countries where
sugar beets have not been introduced.
The fact that the farmer has sure
market for his crop at price known in
advance enables him to judge more ac-
curately the value of the land. Expert
ence shows the approximate yield of
beets he may expect and cost of produc-
ton.
The raising of sugar beets is not con-
sistent with poor farming.
In all the farming communities work is

Great Britain without universal service,
but the strength of the army rests on uni
versal obligation to train and serve. With
its immense navy, England could drop its
fleet into any port, and by sending mar
ines ashore force most powerful nation
to terms. There would be no question as
to who would control a league of nations
if CONSUMPTION were abolished and Eng
land permitted to maintain its present
naval strength.
The people of this country, SIS whole,
have no quarrel with England because it
insists upon maintaining the largest navy
in the world. A navy is recognized as a
necessity for the British empire, but it is
just as essential that countries like the
United States should maintain an ade-
quate land force. This can be done only
through universal military training and
service, and when Lloyd George proposes
the adjustment of such a policy he
strikes at the vitals of the defense of this
nation.-American Army Gazette. ~

STICKING CLOSE TO YOUR WORK

While in a certain government office
recently Sir Evan Jones, the British
transport chairman, overheard the fol-
lowing dialogue between two fair type
writer tappers:

prayers with Yours truly.'"-Vancouv-

more pressing in the summer than during
the winter. In order to have sufficient
help to care for crops during the busy
season there is an excess at other times.
This means that ordinarily some of the
hands are idle and that winter wages arc
low.
If there is sugar factory in the COM
munity, it uses great number of men
during the winter and the congestion is
relieved. Those who would otherwise be
idle are given employment and the entire
winter wage scale for the community is
advanced.
Sugar beet raising calls for Intensive
farming and promotes denser popula-
ton. This makes possible better educa-
tional facilities and more desirable social
opportunities, thereby reducing to IA min
imum some of the chief disadvantages of
farm life. 4s,...g,lsa

Referring to Washington's Farewell

that both the address and the Ten Com

something more up to date. Apparently
