Zurich, Switzerland, April 2S.-An
anti communist uprising lin Fueles,
Hungary near Sopron (Odenburg),
west of Budapest, began April 10, and
ended few days later with the exc
cution Of priest on false charges
and the imposition of prison sentences
on 10 others accused Of participation
in the revolt. This news has just
been received here from Vienna, hav-
ing been held up by the rigid censor
ship at Budapest.
The revolt began among the peas

finally enabled the troops to suppress
the revolt. The communist govern
mcnt immediately sent revolutionary
Judges to Fueles to punish the rebels
The tribunal caused the arrest Of
all the young men of Fueles and from
them selected q of the wealthiest.
They were told they would be shot
unless they betrayed the name of the
rebel leader of the uprising. After
comforting among themselves the
young men, it is reported unanimous

eniker, Catholic priest, as the "in-
tellectual originator The trial of
the priest lasted less than an hour
and there were no witnesses except
the young men. He was condemned
to OATH and shot half hour later.
subsequently the young men, it is
added said that they he'd denounced
the priest only because they were con-
vinced that his calling would protect
him from violence.

LAURENS, S. G., APRIL 80, 1919.

A citizen cnQuircd yesterday if we
were going to hop on" somebody in
The Advertiser because Of what he
seemed to think was an unnecessary
loss by fire Sunday afternoon. We
answered that we did not intend to
do so and that we wouldn't know who
to chop on if we wanted to. From
what we have heard, not being pres
cnt, the nozZlcmcn were unable to get
water in sufficient force to do effective
work. Whether this was due to low
water in the stand-pipe, small water
mains, ineffective handling Of the fire
apparatus or other causes we do not
know and different opinions are cX-
pressed. If the low pressure was
OF the city, the truth, Of course,
should be found out and proper
steps taken TO prevent re-oc-
currence in the future. IL it was
due to the small water main, this one
and others like it in as thickly popu-
lated parts OF the city should be TAX
en- up and larger ones put down. 1t
occurs to us that a committee Of the
Council might investigate the fire and
fix the responsibility for any unneces-
sary loss,
Italy will come around. She can
not stand out against the public opin-
ion Of the world Germany, much
more powerful nation than Italy, tried
that and failed. We imagine that the
popular demonstrations in Rome are
just about like demonstrations that
can be stirred up by smooth-tOngued
politicians anywhere, South Carolina
for instance, and that as soon as cool
cr and more conservative heads are
allowed to prevail the Italians will
sec the error OF their ways and the
delegation will return to Paris.
WHY BUY BONDS.
Three motives at least should
prompt US TO subscribe TO the series
Of Liberty Bonds now being offered.
Two of these were touched on by the
speakers on the Trophy Train ycSter-
day. They are the sense Of apprccia-
tion which should be expressed to the
soldiers for their services, and the
obligation which We should ac-
ccpt as integral parts Of the gov

ANGLO AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP
Vigorous Protest Against William Nc.
Fees Analysis Of English lsno.
rance of America

To the EditOr Of the Eronin0 Public Ledger:
Sir-As an Engshman. | was surprised
and panied to read in your paper recently
letter from William McFec discussing n
length an alleged lack of interest in things
American on the part Of certain English
people he had met. lie used the word
anti Americanism' freely. almost as il hc
shared with only very select and enhght
cncd fcw a total immunity from this faint.
My own belief is that 20 per cent of Eng
lishmen feel nothing but fricndIiness toward
their American cousins.
II looks much as if McFep had ashed
himself into fury over the annoying
stupidity of few individuals. some of whom
appear to have been pulling his leg. But
why should he dwell at such length on the
narrowness Of certain of his countrymen and
why do so in an American publication:
There might. Conceivabiy. have been some
gain il his bitter remarks had been addressed
to an English newspaper for the benefit of
those whom he so harshly criticizes. The
course he chose, however. is simply mex
plicable.
I am ready to admit that there are fools
in every country. And in every country
certain type of fool can hc found that ron
sderS its own institutions so infinitely
superior to those of any other country as to
preclude all possibility Of comparison.
have found this type in every one Of the
three continents and the seven countries in
which have resided. It is manifestation
of one of the greatest curses of the human
character provincaliSm McFce has cvi-
dcntly encountered prOviuCialsm in Eng
land
| would suggest that Mr.. Melee Gircct his
thoughts some time to the other side of the
picture. The people Of England may not
all know about the Louisiana Purchase lust
as not all the people of this country know
the difference between Austria and Australia
but Ipraise be- these gaps in general knowl-
edge are bridgcd by n fundamental oneness
of purpose and outlook which should reduce
our little Emergencies to absolute inSignii
cance
7 know scores Of Americans who live in
England and feel absolutely at home there {:
and | know hundreds Of Englshmpn who are
as much al home in this country as in Eng
land. I belong to the latter class myself
anG my dearest wish is that all talk among
English speaking people Of anti American
ism. of twisting the lions tail. may
perish from the earth. In contrast to Mr.
McFee in all my life in England I never
heard word against America and in the
days of this country's neutrality not single
letter from home referred unkindly to the
policy which was being followed by the
United States.
In conclusion permit me to say that
from my earliest boyhood | was taught to
revere the name of Lincoln rs much as that
of any of our British statesmen. This in
an English family that had never had any
close contact with the western hemisphere

MORAL AID URGED
IN DRESS REFORM
Women's Clubs Must Be Leaders in
Exerting Influence on Clothes,
Says Mrs. Nichols

There is no way for womens clubs to
legislate on the matter of dress or to change
styles except by exerting moral influence
over the community, according to Mrs. H.
S. Prentiss Nichols. president of the New
Century Club.
In a talk which Mfs. Nichols gave yes
terday before the Oak Lane Review Club
she. characterized the present day styles as
Immoral. and agreement was assented by
large number of the two hundred club
women present.
Each individual woman will have to do
her share in creating a moral sentiment" :"
said Mrs. Nichols today. There is no
way that club can legislate about dress
Women have right to dress as they please
But women's clubs will have to be the lead .
ers in exerting the better influence.
1.-The influence of thoughtful. earnest
women can raise all sorts of community
standards, but in the question Of the styles
of dress. the women must institute the re-
form by creating public opinion
Mrs Nichols thinks that it would be
wholly impracticable to establish in the
womens clubs a department on dress reform,
but believes that the newspapers can be of
great direct help in creating the necessary
moral standard.
