AMERICAS DUTY AT
HOME, NOT IN ASIA
Harboard Mission Studying
Mandate Problem Has
This Opinion.
MINORITY Is IN FAVOR

Essential to the Peace
Of Europe.


CoNsrArrrNoPLE, Oct IL. Recon-
mendations Of a majority Of the MEM
ters Of the .Harbord Mission. which has
been devoting seven weeks to a close UP
investigation of Armenia and the middle
East, that the United States should de-
cline to accept a mandate for Armenia
or Turkey are based largely on the argu-
ment that Americas duty lies closer at
home. Civilian members of the mission,
who favor acceptance Of a mandate for
Armenia at least. argue on the contrary
that acceptance is duty, first. to the
peace of Europe and, secondly, to the
inhabitants, who of themselves can
never rise from the mire Of Ignorance.

The reports of the various members
Of the mission upon their observations
during their journey Of nearly 10000
miles by water, rail-, automobile and on
horseback. are practically completed.
Some members have not indicated in
their reports their personal opinions as
to the advisability Of accepting man
dates OF any description. The majority.
however. have indicated their belief that
It is inadvisable for the United States
to accept a mandate and that II man

Gen. Harbord refused to be quoted in
any respect regarding acceptance OF a
mandate until after he had reported to
President Wilson.

Several military members Of the mis-
sion regard the regulation OF the anairs

with overwhelming emphasis, America

hold that II America does not accept

NUMBERING HAS GOOD OUT
LOOK

According to one reputable author
ity the nation is 46 per cent under
built. The same authority believes
that the prices Of materials will rule
at present levels for 1919.
1t also estimates total construction
for 1919 at 40 to so per cent or nor
NAL with lumber as cheapest building
material.
Our country is liable to lose six
million alien laborers of whom 1,500,-
900 have gone or are going this year.
This kind of labor is leaving New
York at the rate of 1000 a week, and
the supply of labor for industries is
scarce.
Lumber yards in New York and
many eastern cities have less than
one-third of normal supply, and de-
mand is increasing.
OF hundred brick yards in ia
nous eastern clay products district,
more than 20 are idle for lack of la
Dor.
Indications are that scarcity of
buildings will continue thru 1920 and
that the demand for lumber will con-
tinue to increaose.

ADVANTAGES OF FEDERAL
FARM LOANS

Few people realize the development
of the federal farm loan system since
its Inauguration two years ago. The
second report of the board to congress
reveals some very interesting facts.
The report shows that at the end of
the second year the twelve federal
land banks had made total of 64,35I
loans, amounting to the sum of S149,-
OO4 .439. This entire sumo of money
was loaned thru the efforts of the
.3.439 farm loan associations now in
operation.
It is interesting to note that Texas
heads the list of states in loans, with
$3.50. while Delaware comes last with
eleven.
Another important item brought
out by the report shows that sixty
per cent of the money borrowed by
the farmers was used to pay off ex-
listing mortgages, while the other
forty per cent was used to purchase
land. erect buildings, buy implements,
equipment, live stock, etc.
There are three big advantages to
the farmer in the farm loan system:
1. Low cost.
2. Freedom from anxiety about
foreclosure or renewal.
3. Easy payments of principal.

wOMAN'S DUTY is TO

Record of Republicans is Best Claim

Mccormick

Mrs. Medill Mccormick, chairman
of the Republican Women's National
Executive committee, believes in
straight from the shoulder American
ism and dyed-in- the-wool republican,
ism, and she does not hesitate to so
express herself when necessity arises.
Mrs. Mccormick attended the Hi
nois conference held last Tuesday and
urged the women to preach the gospel
of taking part in party politics.
"There is no such thing as non-parti-
san ship, any more than there is hy-
phenated Americanism," said Mrs.
Mccormick.
"Party action is the legal and eff
ficient method of individual partici-
patton in government, and our first
duty is to consider with what party
we can align ourselves with on broad
principles. The record of the republi-
can party is its best claim to support
from those citizens who would see
their constitutional rights secured and
the fundamental principles of Amer
lean freedom maintained.
at is just such party that wo-
men with high ideals and splendid
energies need to make them effective
for the public good, and it is just such
women that the party needs to bring
new views to sound experience"

MEXICAN OIL WELLS WONDERS

1t is not generally known that the
worlds greatest oil wells today are
located in Mexico.
One well that was producing 3d.
900 barrels of petroleum daily for
eight years has been closed by flood
ing.
This we'll in measured capacity
turned out 10000 barrels crude oil
per day in a steady stream for eight
years.
Another Mexican well at Cerro Azul
brought in February 10, 1916, has a
tested capacity of 100000 barrels
daily.
On account of limited pipe line it
has been throttled down to flow of
fifteen thousand barrels per day.
While the English capitalists have
oil interests in Mexico, American in
vestments are still larger.
The joint interests of our country
and Great Britain in oil supplies from
Mexico make friendly relations i'm
portant.
Oil may be the means of allaying
all troubles on the waters of inter-
national strife between the two re-
publics.

The Editor of The Echo,
Leavenworth, WASH,
Authority has been received from
the war department to initiate educa-
tional and vocational training at this
camp, in addition to the military train
ing received. Any young man wish
ing to enlist is permitted to choose
the arm of the service in which he
cares to enlist. Any soldier, serving
in whatever arm, is permitted, not re-
ouired, to undertake educational or
vocational training three hours daily
during five days of the week. 1t is
believed that this educational oppor-
tunity, furnished young men who
have not yet entered college or
learned a trade, will induce a large
number of young men, unmarried, to
enter the army for the purpose of
either increasing their caring capacity
after discharge, or for the purpose of
entering college in higher grade
than he would otherwise enter. This
educational advantage is in addition
to the other privileges accorded SOL
diers of the army. The present pay
and allowances, such as clothing, sub
sistence, quarters, medical attention,
dental treatment, life insurance, ETC.,
are usually estimated at 500 per
month The improvement in the char
acter of citizenship of those young
men who served during the war must
have been noted by the readers of your

be gained by other young men who
have not yet served in the army.
