THE SALVATION CAMPAIGN GETS
HEADWAY HERE.

Rural Kentucky is boiling with
Salvation Army enthusiasm and
over the State generally the Home
Service Fund campaign of the Sal
walton Army is gathering Roadway.
Strong campaign organizations
have been perfected in many coun-
ties, and are already briskly at
work. Central and Western Ken
lucky is most active at present, but
it is the intention of the Salvation
Army to have campaigns either
over or we'll under way all over the
State by this time next month.
The public throughout the nation
is splendidly recognizing theimpor-
lance of the Salvation Army in this
period Of after war reconstruction.
That each county quota be rails
ed is important" says Geo. r.
Campbell, State Director, because
the Salvation Army does not ask
more than it actually needs. It is
not trying to accumulate a great and
idle fund. Every day it puts the
dollars that are given it into a re-
generation of humanity. 1t is max
ing better citizens and happier fam
lilies in all America ncities.'

NEWSPRINT PAPER SHORTAGE
MAY RAISE PRICES

The threatened shortage of print
paper and the high prices now pre-
vailing are the subjects of the Con-
gressional investigations now in
progress.
One investigation, obtained
through the initiative of Senator
James Reed, of Missouri, will give
special attention to prices of news
print, and another was asked in a
resolution introduced by Senator
James Watson, of Indiana, author
;zing the Secretary of Agriculture to
make survey of the available wood
pulp timber supply of the country.
Further increased subscription
prices for newspapers may be one of
the results of the paper shortage and
the increased price of news print.
Publishers are now paying more
than twice as much for paper as was
the case before the war.

"This year, of all years, we should
unite in making our own city health

"For in those stressful two war
years just passed we have necessarily
neglected for the world cause sanitary
conditions in our midst, in our CITY

"Not only have dirt and rubbish
accumulated until they are now grave
menaces that should compel our i'm

ed its way to the cemetery.
Rev. FIR. Dineen took charge of the
services at the grave.

REPUBLICANS TO REVISE
CAMPAIGN DONATIONS

Washington, May 22.-Chairman
Hays of the republican national COM
mittee announced yesterday no con-
tribution of more than $1,000 would be
received from anyone for the financing
fthe coming republican campaign
and launching plan of countrywide
small individual subscriptions.
The new plan marks the passing Of
great campaign contributions from
corporations and individuals, long the
subject of attack by the republican
party's political opponents. The new
plan, Mr.. Hays announced, involves
decentralization of money raising into
the very smallest contributions from
the smallest units of territory.
"Every one recognizes the necessi-
ty of meeting legitimate campaign ex-
penses," said Mr.. Hays "There is
just one way for this money to be
provided, and that is by means OF
small contributions from the great
membership of the party. This plan
will be followed completely. A gen.
eral committee of ways and means,
acting with Mr.. Upham, the treasurer,
will carry this work into each state
and into the cities and towns with a
definite organization for the raising
of money. The purpose will be to get
small contributions from great many
members of the party. 1t is the plan
to have these sustaining contributions
run from year to year and in amounts
from 81 up. No contribution of more
than $1,000 will be received from any
one."
Chairman Hays added that the fl
nancing of the republican campaign
would be an open book and that it
would accord with the best spirit of
the campaign publicity laws of the
nation and the states"

WAR-LIKE PREPARATIONS ARE NOW 11NnEp
WAY; FIVE DIVISIONS HELD IN ARMYOF
OCCUPATION

Coblenz, Wednesday, May 21.-
Lieutenant General Hunter Liggett,
commander of the army of occupation,
and Major General John Hines. COM
mander of the Third corps, who were
on their way to London, today were
recalled to Coblenz by orders from
American general headquarters.
Nine hundred motor trucks began
to move Tuesday midnight from west
of the Rhine to the bridgehead area.
The trucks are being distributed to
various points of advantage among
the troops holding the zone east Of
the Rhine should the occasion arise
for the Americans to start an ad-
vance.
Part of New Program.
The recall of Generals Liggett and
Hines is part of the new program for
the American army in the event the
Germans do not accept the peace
treaty.
The composite regiment of the
Third army, organized for participa-
tion in the empire day festivities in
London, is being held in Coblenz be-
cause of the new turn in the peace
situation.
The movement of the motor trucks
was the topic of conversation among
the German civilians in Coblenz. Many
civilians complained because the trucks
as they rumbled across the Rhine
bridges at night disturbed their Sleep
The trucks which have a capacity
of from 80 to 40 soldiers, are fully
equipped. The army of occupation at
present consists of the First, Second,
Third, Fourth and Fifth divisions.
Because of increased indications Of
friction between German civilians and
soldiers throughout the American area
of occupation, American officers to-
day warned the burgomasters and 9TH
er German officials that they would
be held responsible for any violence
or any attempt at destruction of
American army property.
The American officers ordered Ger
man officials to caution civilians that
any resentment displayed toward the
soldiers would not be tolerated.
Reports to American headquarters
show many recent instances of nu-
merous shopkeepers attempting to
overcharge American soldiers, and
that Germans in the streets were par
ticularly arrogant and refused in
many cases to give half the sidewalk
The Americans have informed the
Germans that the soldiers are instruc-
ted to give half of the sidewalk when
passing civilians, but in no event to
step off the walk for German males.
Reports of the lofty attitude of ci-
villains began reaching headquarters
a week ago and increased with the
reports of delays at Versailles.

BOSS TOWNLEY BREAKS
WITH MINOT LEADER

Fargo, May 21.-What appears to
be. another break in Nonpartisan
league circles in North Dakota was
revealed today when A. C. Townley,
president of the league, made public
a letter addressed to him by Grant
Youmans Of Minot in which Youmans
told Townley that he probably would
make public d certain transaction in
which Townley is alleged to have call
ed on Youmans for $4,000 to influ-
ence decisions by the North Dakota
supreme court in certain cases in
which Youmans was interested.
Charge "Founded on Myth"
In an article published here Town
ley says that he never at any time
made any proposition to Youmans nor
was there any conversation or dis
cussion Of any such proposed offer
by Youmans. In a lengthy article on
the break between Youmans and
Townley the latter's newspaper here
today heads it, "Youmans' threat
against Townley exposed" and the
paper then proceeds with an account
of what it says has transpired be-
tween Youmans and Townley for some
time past. The article states that
Youmans had threatened to "expose"
Townley's alleged demand for $780,
900 bribe which the Townley paper
said is founded wholly on a myth.
Break Believed Serious.
Youmans has for several years been
closely identified with the Nonparti
san league movement, and has been
one of Townley's staunchest support
ers in Minot. He is the head Of a
bank that has about 1900 farmer
stockholders.
Political leaders say that this break
between the president of the Nonpar-
tisan league and former supporter
may even be more important than the
recent break with state officials, so
far as the leagues political aspira-
tions are concerned.

THRESHERMAN'S SCHOOL
HERE JULY 18TH TO nth

Dates for the threshermen's school at
Glasgow are July 18th, 18th and 17th
The instruction is to be given by
members Of the agricultural college
faculty under the direction of the
Montana extension service. They will
be assisted as far as possible by the
department of agriculture at Wash
ington and by the Representatives of
the manufacturers interested. The
manufacturers have agreed to fur
nish machines and speakers in so far
as possible.
The instruction to be given is di-
vided roughly into three headings:
(a) The theory of the separator
(b) Demonstration of operation
care and adjustment.
(c) Laboratory work to give skill
in adjusting.
It is proposed to have one-day grain
standardization schools, Immediately
preceding or following schools for
threShermen.
It is desirable to secure the assist
ance of as many threshermen and
grain growers as possible, and CO.
operate with the manufacturers and
implement dealers in working up at
tendance.
The course of instruction will be
based upon subject matter contained
in farmers bulletins Nos. 991 and
1896, a supply of which is being pre-
pared for distribution at the thresh-
ermen's schools-enough so that each
pupil may have copies, which will be
used as text. Mr.. E. B. Mccormick,
chief of the office of rural engineer
ing at Washington, will have the as
sistance of four practical engineers
who will visit the various states as
far as practicable.
