the issue and all held as surety for the issue with the state bond in ad- dition, all of which my plan embodies and furnishes development money at three per cent. Can you answer it?
 With the problems that are con- fronting the United States to-day, these are times we need real men, ernest, thoughtful, honest men-men who think and try to analyze and solve problems, not those who con- demn without earnest thought and consideration suggestions regardless of their merit and are more prone to pass on suggestion by considering its source rather than it's merit. These are days when everyone should think and consider well.
 No fair minded man will object to honest criticism of any plan or sug- gestion he may offer but rather well come it, but let it be honest criticism, with sound arguments supporting the contention. Fair discussion should bring forth sound conclusions. If there be defects, bring them out, un- cover them, but if the plan or sug- gestion has merit, let no one attempt to smother or cover it up.
 As the writer of the editorial re- ferred to Congress being flooded with the widest ideas and the to be dread ed one was mine. I will here give some excerpts taken from a letter, written by our Senior Senator, Mar GUS A. Smith, in reply to my letter and plan submitted:
 "The scheme you have is too big for me or anyone else to decide off hand, but it is worthy, know of the most careful thought. I shall bring the matter to the attention of Secre- tary Lane for it seems to me it is as good or even better than the scheme he has.
 You could not get such big idea into the heads of these senators with out weeks of hard work"
 If the people of Arizona hope to accomplish anything, they have got to get in and work for it and assist our senators and representative.
 The writer of the editorial stated that "The people must not be mislead by any of the harpies", referring to me, and adds Cor the people will sur ely cut you down." I say to the gen. tleman that I am willing to abide by the will of the people.
 Respectfully,
 JOHN F. DAVIDSON.

No Problem at All,

A small boy was sent to the local drug store for an empty bottle, and after waiting his turn the assistant spotted him and said: "Well, little man, what can I do for you?"
 "Oh, I want an empty medicine bot. tlc," the boy replied.
 q can't let you have one without something in it," said the assistant.
 To which the little hopeful shyly an- swered: "I suppose it is merely red tape, so shove us a cork in."

ORGANIZES ". s. CLUBS
! Large Number Of Students ENROLL
Tn City Schools-Richmond Runs
Ahead Of Winchester

Hon. E. T. Mckinney, State Super
visor. who is touring this part Of the
STATE in the interest of organization
of War Saving Stamps Societies, did
splendid work in Richmond the past
week. He visited the schools of the
Icity and formed societies, which
lpromise to do a good work in boosting
fhe sale of Stamps in this county.
/ At Caldwell High School 311 stud
ents enroll as members of the society.
The Model School organized their
society with a membership which will
do good work in the county as well as
in Richmond. Mr.. Mckinney, called at
tbe colored high school and a society
with 9S members started lively
campaign among their people. This
is splendid work which is now in its
infancy, and the progress of the socle-
|des will be watched with interest.
Judge John c. Chenault, who has
done good work as Chairman of w. s.
Isl. in Madison, will oversee the work,
and with his leadership, the sale of
stamps will be increased to a great
extent. sfAr
Mr.. Mckinney, in talking with a
representative of the Daily Register,
stated that the people all over the
country have been taking, advantage
Of investing and saving their. money
in this manner. He says that ten
million dollars monthly is now being
invested in stamps, and Postmaster
W. C. Stockton disposed of 1000
worth of stamps the past month,
while the sales at Winchester for the
month only totalled $174,00.
Mr.. Mckinney, went from here to
Berea, where society will be organi-
zed among the students Of the College
at that place. He is a man who is do
ing a great work for Uncle Sam, and
made many friends while in Rich
mond.

BOLSHEVIk IDEAS
BLAMED FOR STRIKE
Correspondence Associated Press)

Correspondence Associated Press)
Barcelona, Spain, April German
propaganda and the spread of Bolshe-
vik ideas among the working men are,
in part, blamed for the general strike
is generally believed that the Germans
have all along been working to create
trouble among the Spanish laboring
men. Their Vaccinations during the
war were exposed by the Madrid daily
Ell Sol, which showed how the German
embassy was implicated in provoking
labor troubles both in Barcelona and
ago that wireless message had been
intercepted asking that further funds
be sent here for propaganda work.
this manufacturing district of Spain
was not shared by the working people.
While the cost of living steadily in
creased, wages remained unaltered or
insuff1ciently increased.
Bolshevik ideas began to spread and
were judiciously fostered by unidenti-
fled persons who provided funds and
clerks in Offices were forced by threats
to join the labor syndicates. - Those
who refused were warned by anony-
nous letters and if they disregarded
masked men. The police failed to dis
cover the authors of these crimes.
The strike began among the employ
or electric light. The government mo-
bilized the strikers but the tramway
conductors refused to take the cars out
under military orders and were arrest
ed and taken to the fortress at Mont
juich-
Finally the Madrid government oblig-
ed the light and power company to
concede the demands of the men but
the army authorities refused the de-
mand of the union that the imprisoned
conductors be liberated.
The general strike ensued and the
city was left without light, power or
transport. There is good authority for
stating that the strike leaders had
planned a general pillage of the city
as serious as that which took place in
1909. Martial law was proclaimed and
the military authorities stationed ma
chine guns in the leadin gthorough<
fares while special constab1es main
tanned order in the side streets. The
soldiers supplied electric light and wa
ter but no street cars were operated.
No Barcelona papers were printed for
several days and the Madrid papers re-
ceived here were torn from the hands
of the vendors. Eventually the au-
thorities gained the upper hand and
normal conditions were resumed.
The censorship made it impossible to
wire any details.

I'D the committee himself to the pro-
Fsosal of the settlement of the Fiume

vices that the President has not de-
waited in the slightest from his orig
inal stand in opposition to Italy's
claims to this Adriatic port.
Other dispatches said the President
would personally address Congress
and discuss the 'whole subject matter
Of the Paris negotiations" Immediate

1t is understood the President is be-
ing urged by his advisers to make a

be addresses Congress. There are
Indications he is seriously considering
