 Gillctt Puzzled By Accent.
 Soon after Berger began his state ment to the house there was much commotion, and Speaker Gillett rap ped for order several times. When Berger condemned government action in sending troops to Gary, Ind, Rep- reSentGtive Blanton, dem Ocrat of Texas, insisted that Berger confine himself to his own activities and ut- terances and not be permitted to criti- cize the government, 'especially at this critical time.''
 Speaker Gillett said he had been unable to understand Berger, ."be- cause of his strong foreign accent"
 Berger did not deny making the al- legged seditious statements which led to his conviction and sentence to 20 years in federal prison.
 Under the same circumstances,' he said, II would say and write them all over again, only l would make it great deal stronger, because I have been justified by the events since the armistice, when the war was practical '
 Infamous Measure" Says Berger.
 Berger characterized the espionage act "as an infamous measure passed at the order of American plutocracy not to punish spies, but to hound citl- zens whose opinions differed from those of the administration"
 When Berger concluded, cries of "vote!' came from both sides of the house. In the disorder Representa- tive Fucker, democrat, of Missouri. moved to expunge Berger's speech from the congressional record.
 ''It is an outrage to print and circulate such stuff" said he.
 "The house doesn't want to make a martyr of Berger" said Republican Leader MondeI, in moving to table Fuckers motion.
 The Mondell motion carried, 173 to 122.
 Rcrgcr's Words Assailed.
 Representative Walsh, republican, of Massachusetts. charged that Berger had impugned the motives of every member of congress, had attacked the president and denounced the Amer ican courts. Representative Cooper, republican, of Ohio, declared Berger's remarks were "seditious and un-Am- erican" and constituted an unjust1- fled attack upon the government.

States is not indispensable. The news paper states that the question arises however,, whether it is possible to ex~ ecute the treaty without participation of the United States in the numerous inter-allied commissions on repara- tons, control and the military coa- tingents of occupation.
 Difficulties of the same kind, the Temps continues, arise in connection with the working of the League of Nations. President Wilson, it says ought to summon the first meeting Of the leagues council which has been fixed in principle for Paris on the day notifications are eXchanged-the day on which the treaty enters into force.
 The supreme council reached an agreement this morning on the pro- cedure for convoking the first coun- cil of the league. taking into account the situation created by the opposi- tion to ratification in the American senate.

equal footing, the prosperity of one
being conducive to the prosperity Of
the other.
City and country people are Of the

at any time there may come to anyone
a belief that there is a difference be-

out Of his consciousness so as to get
out from under its poison gas spell

CITY Limits
Article Contributed by e. LaRue,
Secretary Commercial Club.

The old story told as one OF Lin
coins, when asked how long a mans
legs should be, he replied that they
should be long enough to reach to the
ground, applies in way to the ques'
tion: how far should city's limits
reach; and may be stated as reaching
as far as it's trade reaches into the
country.
At one time there was wide gulf
between city and country. In the days
of home spun clothes for the country,
and tailor made clothes Of the city
folk, and in the up-to'date home OF
those in the city block and the hum.
BILE home of the farmer, clothes, edu-
cation and homes were taken to mean
the standard by which people were
judged.
Today, however, the modern city
home is duplicated in all country dis
tricts, with electric lights, water works
and heating plants. Those living In
the country buy the same style OF
clothes as those worn by the city folk
The country boy and girl in town can
scarcely be distinguished from the
town boy and girl, except perhaps in
better manners than their town cous'
ins have cultivated.
The war just ended has broken down
all barriers between town and country
as the boys from town have fought
side by side with the boys from the
country, and they have come to re-
cognize each other as comrades true
in spirit, deeds mad ideals.
The limits of city now reach as
far into the country as the trade OF
the city reaches into the country, and
the merchants stand solidly back OF
the farmer extending credit when
needed, and in case of crop failure the
merchant stands ready to carry the
load until the next harvest, an accom-
mediation not possible through mail
order houses. AtsS

AS a consequence Of this general
sentiment and in response to a wide.

community cooperation a new organ
ization-the Federated Community
Life Development Association-has
been launched.
Among various other activities, in
the way of community building this
organization plans to hold four great
community events in each one Of one
hundred and thirty-two communities
during the coming year-staying two
nights and day in each place at each
visit, giving three programs each time.
-Four first-class community lecturers
and four splendid entertainment com.
panies have been secured for the work.
The programs will be staged at 10 and

reach of all.

That the rural community life Of
the nation is lacking in many Of the
essential features which contribute to
widespread prosperity ana general
contentment is a fact fully apprehend-
ed by every we'll informed student of
the social and economic conditions of
the day. The findings Of Roosevelt's
Rural Life Commission, taken in con-
nection with other surveys, proves
conclusively that there exists an
alarming state Of discomfort and un-
rest where we might reasonably ex-
pect to look for just the opposite. The
tremendous exodus-constantly in
creasing in magnitude-from our small
towns and country districts, to the
great centers of population-is sig
nificant sign of the times. A six
months survey of conditions in some
sixty communities in North Dakota,
recently completed by the editor Of
this magazine, furnis hes additional
startling facts. In practically all Of
the places visited there was found to
