against ducts Of foreign fac
tories. For instance a psf of
Russian-made boots cost from 400
to 900 roubles. The same boots are
selling in France for from sixty
to ninety roubles. Other Russian
products are similarly high COM
paratively. Now, of course. that
situation cannot continue. Either
the Bolsheyik government must
overcome the world. and similarly
increase the price of manufactured
articles all over the world. or those
articles will enter Russia and drive
Russian-made articles out of the
market and close the Bolshevih
factories. A tariff wall will not
stop the flow of commerce which
will submerge Bolshevism. So
Bolshevism must be militant. 1t
must conquer the world or perish.
Hence its armies are storming at
the gates of those Russian provin-
ces that have broken Off old Rus
sia, and when these provinces are
conquered Bolshevik armies must
conquer Europe, 1t will thus be
seen that whatever fine plans we
have In our league Of nations for
the peace of the world, the league
without Russia IS not worth the
paper 1t is written on.
Russia II world Problem.
The great problem Of the world
peace today is the Russian prob
lem. And with it of course is the
German problem. For there can
be no doubt that Germany looks
for her economic rejuvenation to
Russia. The German Junker is
far from crushed. He still dreams
his great dream. He hopes to
snatch economic victory from mill
tary defeat; and If he can keep
Russia away from the allies by
fostering anarchy of one kind or
another in Russia and then bring
ing his own kind of order out of
the confusion, the German Junker
will emerge vastly stronger in 1924
than he was in 1914: he will have
made the war worth while, and will
be in a position to threaten Eu-
rope and defy any league of ma
tions which he does not care to
join.
Indeed the Junker is the natural
ally Of the Bolshevist. He could
protect himself even If Germany
went Bolshevist. He would vastly.
prefer to have all the moderate So
cialists like Kurt Eisner assassi-
mated than to see the Bolshevist
revolution fail in Russia or even in
Germany. For out Of chaos he
would bring reaction.
This European peace is no sim
pie matter. And Americans can
not back out across the Atlantic
and wave the problem away. For
If We abandon Europe to the phil
osophy of force applied from below,
where once 1t was applied from
above, We too shall feel the same
force in our own life War-even
civil waI-is an infectious disease.
And Euope cannot go up in flames
without America burning also. A

submits the reasons Of the Farm

Chairman Hurley's plan to turn over
10 private interests the ships con-
structed by the government during
the war.
He says:
Merchant Marine for People.
"On February II we sent you the
following resolution adopted by the
conference, as follows:
Enormous sums have been eXpend-
cd by the government in constructing
ships. The ships so constructed at
government expense should remain
the property of the people OF the
country and shoCld be operated as a

SIMPSON FIGHTS
FOR 15C MILK
Distributor Says Spring
Supply Is Plentiful and
Price Should Fall.

Milk fog Is cents per quart is the
fight that is being put up by Wash
ington milk distributors for Washing
ton milk consumers.
With milk as plentiful as il is in
the outlying districts there is no rea-
son why Washington residents should
pay more than Is cents as against the
present price of II cents per quart for
all the milk they can use, said w A.
Simpson, wholesale distributor of milk
in Washington. around whom the
milk fight is centering. yesterday aft
ernoon.
Steps We're taken by the Maryland
and Virginia Dairymen's League in a
conference Saturday, held at the Dis
trict Building, to force Mr.. Simpson
to return to the old-rate schedule.
Ultimatum to Simpson.
He has been given until Thursday
to present his answer to the organi-
zation at the Frederick County Court
house, where a meeting of the rep
resentative dairymen of Maryland
and Virginia will be held.
THE threatened boycott of my
creamery at Frederick, and the re-
fusal of the dairymen TO send milk
to my supply depot, does not worry
me in the slightest" Mr.. Simpson
said.
Already I have lined up more than
the full quota that I need to supply
my customers, and notices have been
sent to the milk retail dealers whom
l serve that my service will continue
uninterrupted in spite of any boycott
on the part of the league or the in
dividual dairyman.'
Milk in Abundance.
Approximately 1900 gallons of milk
are daily being received in Washing
ton, Mr.. Simpson receiving about A.
600 gallons. He is indirectly reach
ing in the neighborhood of 1906
Washington homes.
THE local distributors hands have
been tied by contracts to the Mary
land and Virginia milk producers for
some time" declared Mr.. Simpson.
because of written contracts they
have been unable to allow the cost of
milk to the local residents to f1uctu-
ate with the supply and demand"

LET'S KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

During the period Uncle Sam was
engaged in the world war, we were
pleaded with to econonize-to go on
less than ever before tried, and then
to cut that some. Some of us reduced
the amount of meat eaten; some of US
pretty nearly cut out the sugar; some
Of us resorted to substitutes for flour;
even potatoes, rice, ETC., were eaten
in the place of wheaton and corn
bread-and who can say that we did
not preserve our bodily welfare as
well (perhaps BETTER than if we had
gratified every desire :. If we need
ed economy then, we need it as much
or more now, so lets organize our
selves into a committee Of the whole
and resolve that WE WILL BUY
NOTHING WHEN THE PRICE
SCARS TO AN ABNORMAL FIG
URE. Get all you can for what you
have to sell There is no use attempt
ing to get an American to do other
wise) but when the other fellow has
something to sell which is beyond
your reach, in justice to your finan-
ices, CUT 1T 0UT-REFUSE TO
BUY 1T. No matter whom the seller
may be, fellew citizen or stranger,
friend or foe, if the price of the ar
ticle is too steep for your ability
pay, REFUSE TO BUY. The buying
and selling of those things that are
necessary, will make plenty of bust
ness-and the level-headed business
man does not want you to fool away
your money. viii have more respect
for you if you will conserve your fl
nancial resources. Economy is vir-
tue stinginess contemplate trait

According to statement current on
Thursday Of last week just after The
Progress had been printed, Bob CAN'T
was not one of the party in the auto
that ran off into the washout on
Brazeel levee, but it was a man NAM
ed Hale, with Brewer and one of the
Gunter boys. At about the same
time the auto was turned over to
those who claimed it, and no law had
been found for holding it in the event
it was discovered that the auto was
bing used for transportation of whis-
ky-in fact several make the state
ment that there was no proof that the
auto was being used for that unlaw-
full purpose. No false charge should
be made against the parties, but il is
to be hoped that each and every vio-
lator OF the Bone Dry Law shall suf-
fer the fullest penalty. The Acts
of the last General Assembly not
having been printed and delivered. the
people do not know what laws were
enacted by it.

THE VALUE OF A GOOD NEIGH.
Dor. a s. esq

r| ..r..
You can not overestimate the value
of good neighbor--because Of the
fact that if man is not good neigh
Dor, he is not, can not be much of
anything worthy Of consideration. The
genuine good neighbor can hardly fail
to be good mainland the man with
good principle, man whose heart
pumps through his system "The milk
of human kindness while the
bad neighbor, the poor neighbor and
the Indifferent neighbor, represents
the varying undesirable specimens Of
the human kind. One who is poor in
neighborliness has sterile heart in
which the virtue of unselfishness is
some times caused to sprout by cal
nifty or great sorrow, but generally
the Enthusiastically bad neighbor is
proof against all appals to better ma
ture which he has allowed to become
warped in the practice Of selfishness.
If you have good neighbor, you
should appreciate but do not abuse
that fortunate fact, make it your
business to do more, if possible, for
him than he does for you-for re-
member that the real pleasure in life
lies IN DOING FOR OTHERS. This
little reminder Is written in the mas
culine gender and we shall leave the
women to talk about each other.

A part Of Alabama will vote on a
proposition to issue S25,000,0 900 bonds
for 1866 day roads" as soon as the
election can be called after final ad-
journment of the legislature. The
proposition win be to so change the
constitution as to permit issuance of
the bonds. The proposition to hold
mass meetings in Tennessee and take
a vote on the issuance Of $50, 900 900
of bonds for the same purpose, was o
farce. The Alabama money Is to
come out of the auto tax as it was in
Tennessee. The proposition would
have carried in this State if a regular
election had been held, but as it was
the cities made it point to beat the
country in the mass meetings held.
The big counties would have footed
the major portion of the bill-and the
same will happen in Alabama If the
proposition carries.
