What Our Governor Says.
PRESIDENT WILSON EXPLAINS
FTUNfE CONDITIONS.

Italy's claim to the Adriatic sea-
port of Fiume has stalled the peace
and league of nations plan at Paris
for the time being. In statement
President Wilson explains why
Fiume should remain neutral, as fol-
lows:
There would be no justification,
In my judgment, in including Fiume
or any part of the coast line to the
south of Finme, within the bound
aries of the Italian kingdom. Fiume

stances Of its development not an

north OF the gulf of Fiume.
E'Just because 1t is an international
port and cannot with justice be sub
ordinated to any one sovereignty, it
Ia NY clear Judgment that it should
enjoy a very considerable degree of
genuine autonomy and while it
should be included, no doubt, within
the customs system of the new Jugo-
Slavic state II, should nevertheless be
left free in its own interest and in
the interest of the states lying about

commerce which naturally and inev-
itably seeks an outlet or inlet at its

wHIPPET TANK DRAWS
CROWD TO MERIDIAN

One OF the interesting exhibits OF
the war was made in Meridian Sun
day afternoon when an American
catapiller-tread whippet tank, one
used In France in the battles of the
Argonne forest, was brought in town
by train, and afterwards exhibited on
its own power through the streets of
the town. This is one of a half dozen
battle-scarred tanks, which are being
exhibited throughout the west to
arouse interest in the Victory loan.
1t was unnecessary to tell the peo-
plethat the camflouged tank" had
been In battle as several bullet-holes
had pierced almost through the ~
inch steel cover although the tank is
proof against the ordinary rifle bull
let. OF more than hundred sim
liar tanks, engaged in the Argonne
battles, in one memorable conflict,
only a half dozen of the men who
had charge of the tanks escaped
death or capture and for this reason
the driver and gun manipulation are
usually volunteers for the dangerous
mission of being first to enter the
enemy's line.
The tank was in charge of Lieut..
Jennings, and was manned by Sgt.
J. r. Rightmyer and Sgt. Gordon
Holdeman These men had exper-
tence with the tanks in battle in
France, and gave an interesting de-
scription.
Hon. Paul Davis and Judge G. p,
Mccarthy addressed the Meridian
people in the interest of the loan.
The ability of the tank to climb hills
and over obstacles was given. The big
excavation near the old creamery, on
the state highway, near the Nampa
Milling & Elevator Co. building on
the state highway, was used.Th tank
went down and up the eellarway
with apparent ease, the climb being
at least twelve feet and at slant
that would be almost impossible for
9 wagon or animal.
A number of Meridian people, in
cludin Sector Manager e. e. Sims,
r. A. Hashbarger, s. w. Hutcheson,
j. E.Atkinson, Mrs. John Baird, Miss
Carrie Duerock, and Miss Hoskin,
enjoyed the thrilling experience of a
ride In the turret of the tank. Miss
Evelyn Cowen and Mrs. Fl. L. Cowen,
of Boise, relatives of the soldier hero
Dewey Highley, were also honored.
The three men named, following
Mr.. Sims, each lost a son in the war

STATE OF IDAHO TO
FINISH THIS WEEK

Finish up this week." is the plea
made to Idaho citizens by State Vic
tory Loan headquarters. BY special
request of the government the twelfth
federal reserve district is asking all
states within its boundaries to make
the supreme effort to finish their Vic
tory Loan quotas before next Satur-
day night.
With only % per cent of the
states quota raised, it is pointed out
by headquarters that mighty shove

NAAIPA RECORD THINKS
NIERIDIAN'S HIGHWAY BAD

In a recent issue OF the Nampa Re-
cord the editor makes the following
comment After he wrote it he should
have made the trip to Midway and
he would have found some road in
the Nampa suburbs that would have
discounted our bad road mile-in
fact the Nampa road is the worst We
have seen.
1T. NJ Hashbarger made hit last
week in the Meridian Times when he
The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1919-05-02

suggested as proper memorial to
the Meridian soldiers the building OF
a boulevard through the city. There
are some roads that are bad part Of
the year and good part of the time.
The road through Meridian is motor
iously bad all the time. Although it
forms part of the state highway it is
in contrast with that smooth thor
ougfare bad at all times. To turn this
into a nice smooth road. good the
year round would be a fitting testi-
monial to the life and energy of a
growing town. The public will hope
Mr. .Hashbarger's suggestion is acted
ginning to bite.

MERIDIAN is SOME SHORT
OF "OVER THE TOP

Up to date $500 of the Fifth
Liberty loan has been raised in the
Meridian sector. The quota for the
sector is $37,500. Between now and
May 10th $4,000 is the amount re-
quired to be raised. If every Cit
izen comes forward, the task will be
easy.
What Our Governor Says.
Before you think of pleasures let
your thoughts travel across the sea
to the thousands of green graves
that hold those precious sons of ours
who fell in battle; then when you
do this you will dig in and do your
share by putting the Victory Loan
"over the top" in Idaho"
Such were the words of Governor
D. W. Davis in d recent speech in
Boise. Let's every one do our share!

TOMMIES.LIKE FRENCH NAMES
Have Conferred Many OF Them on
the Young Britishers Of
Both Sexes.

French Christian names for Brit
ish children have become much more
common in the last year. This, of
course, is because of the fancy our
Tommies in France have taken to
some of the pretticr French names.
Pierre and Jules are by far the
most common names in France fox
boys, and after them Louis, Marcel,
Roaul, Lucien, Etiennc and Ger
vaise, any one of which given TO the
newly arrived son and heir of Brit
ish Tommy always serves to remind
him of the part played in the great
est war in history.
IT is a curious fact, however, that
our Tommlcs are much more in
clined to call their girl babies by
French names than they are their
sons. Madeleine. Marie and WON
ne are becoming quite common,
Among other pretty French names
for girls are Colinettc. Hortensc.
Ninon. .juliennc and Celine.
This war, by the way, has one pc
culiarlty over others. and that is that

are remarkably few. In the Bocr

OBSERVED A BETTER FATE
Frenehman Who invented Cold Stor.
age Is Declared to Have Literally
Starved to Death.

Charles Teller, who invented cold
storage, starved to death in France.
The inventor was a modest, shrink
ing little man, who never learned to
distrust mankind He gave his whole
life to study and then he was robbed
of the fruits Of his labor by men to
whom he appealed for aid. Not hay
ing sufficient funds to market his
scheme for preserving foods by his
invention, he begged moneyed men
to try out his scheme. They finally
stole the idea.
Few people in Chicago, where his
idea made the packers rich. knew
the man. England, which was saved
from starvation during the recent
war by his invention, hardly heard
of him. France forgot him until a
few years ago, when somebody dis
covered that the anniversary of the
first shipment OF cold storage meat
into France was near. Then Teller
was sent for, and he was decorated
with the legion of honor before the
senate and the chamber of deputies
and the president and premier Of
France did him honor. He was sent
home with a guard of honor, and
again forgotten. Few knew that he
was even then almost without funds,
and that he often went without food.
His poverty was discovered after his
death from starvation.
