The schools of the United States are

BO[SHEV|SM WORST
EVIL, SAYSSUNDAY
Tells Throng That 0verfIoWs
Liberty Hut Huns Taught
Russ Dirty Tricks.
DRASTIC ACTION NEEDED

Bolshevism came in for hard
drubbing at the hands of Billy Sum
day last night when he addressed an
audience which overlooked Liberty
Hut. Long before the opening of the
meeting the hut was packed, and
many who sought to gain admittance
were disappointed and returned to
their homes, without having been
given the opportunity again to well
come the speaker.
Sunday declared bolshevism to be
the most damnable evil on earth to-
day, and that it should not be per-
mitted to remain in this country, let
alone the capital city of the nation.
He said that if these people do not
like this country and the way it is
run they should go back to Russia
or wherever they might have come
from. Il would deport them all or
line them up before a firing squad"
he continued.
Says Germany Is at Fault.
He brought into play all of his gym
nastic tricks, in pounding home his
declarations against the reds" He
said that Germany has taught Rus
STA all her dirty tricks" He said "all
of this propaganda which is floating
over Russia and much of it coming
to the United States, is the work of
the Germans.
Don't let any one tell you we were
not lighting the German people," he
said. That is all bosh. If the kaiser
had been successful against the allies
he would now be in Potsdam palace
with all of the loot of Europe and the
people of Germany would be worship
Ing him. They did not cry out against
the atrocities of the German army
when they swept over Belgium, mis-
treating and killing the women and
when they clutched Rumanfa
by the throat until she gasped for
breath, pierced the bleeding heart of
women and children Of Russia"
He declared something must be done
to stop the tidal wave of anarchy and
that America must no longer be the
back yard of Europe. For years they
have been sending their criminals and
outcasts to this country" he contin-
ued, mot to come here to make homes
for themselves and live as good
Americans. but to endeavor to undeT-
mine the homes of those already here
and to destroy their lives"
Rodeheaver in Charge.
Homer Rodeheaver had charge of
the opening exercises, playing his
trombone and leading several songs.
Bob" Matthews and George Brew
ster. pianists of the Sunday party,
came to Washington and last night
entertained with several duet seiec-
lions.
NJ. o. Chance, city postmaster, and
chairman of the committee in charge
of the meeting, told of the good work
done by Sunday on his visit here last
year, and presented him last night.
Charles Henry Butler, as in the
meetings last year, asked for a large
contribution to pay the expenses of
the meeting, and his address brought
a hearty response. A chorus of more
than 100 men was led by Percy S.
Foster.
Sunday spoke at Quantico to- the
Marines yesterday afternoon and ar
rived in Washington late in the after
noon. The party returned to Rich
nloud Va last night.

KEEP DAIRY COWS ON FARM
for Products Dairying Is Most
Profitable Business.

Keeping dairy cows will help the
average farmer to overcome three
main drawbacks to the one-crop sys-
TEN of farming: A cash income but
once a year, a depleted soil, and I'M
equal distribution Of labor, according
to @. H. Staples, dairy specialist, ex-
tension division, Louisiana State
university.
"For the farmer who does not have
q ready and accessible market for
dairy products, few dairy cows will
provide the cheapest and best Of hui
man food for the family" says Mr.
Staples. 1.-THE cows will consume
much of the rough feeds that usually
60 to waste and the expense of keep
ink them is almost negligible.
For the farmer who has a good
market for dairy products dairying is
q most profitable business, is always
a safe and sound line of farming, is
least affected by sudden changes Of
weather and seasons, gives steady
cash income, builds up the soil. and
provides employment for labor at all
seasons"

THE COUNTRY PRESS

rr-HE so-called postal zone sys-
! tenn" now a law until repealed
abolishes our basic postal principles es-
tablished for more than half century.
This revival of the idea that cost must
determine the postage rate, introduces
a new element Of such Importance 70
the country newspapers OF this nation
that thew need to scrutinize with great
care and precision before they bllndIy
support the postal zone SYSTEM as some
of them at least seem disposed to 90. =
There is no more important service
than that rendered, or which may be
rendered, the American people by the
small country newspapers. Recogniz-
ing this fact, free mail delivery within
the county Of publication was provided
for the country press many years age'
This free postal service was never re-
qarded as subsidy to country news
papers. 1t was vital public service OF
information and education to rural read
ers, It meant, chiefly, freedom OF CIR
culation to the readers, for any postsl
charge would be added to the subscrip-
ton price, directly or indirectly"
1.-The subsidy, if SO it might be term
ed. was to the readers, to the people
themselves, who pay for it in their ma
tional taxes. The rural delivery is Tor
the benefit of the country newspaper
reader"
'.Now, the latest official report OF the
Post Office Department shows that the
annual cost per newspaper on Rural
Free Delivery routes is Id cents per
piece. AS the country papers weigh
approximately ten or eleven to the
pound, this would mean a minimum
postage charge on country newspaper
of fourteen cents per pound"
1.-The First Assistant Postmaster
General last year, testifying before a
Senate committee, stated that the
"overhead'' on every pound of news
paper mail was 3.8 cents per pound
Therefore. on this new rule of posta!
"cost, the country press Of this nation
will have to face the terrific total post
age charge of almost eighteen cents
per pound. I"
"Of course, no country publisher can
afford a postage charge Of eighteen
cents q pound. He must pass this
charge on to his subscribers, reducing
thereby his circulation.
'Thls overturn Of postal principles III
existence for over fifty years will i'm
pos. a very great injustice upon the
country newspapers and their readers
The rural delivery is the most expen-
sive and least profitable of all the
postal departments and therefore the
revival of this old postal theory vii
put upon the country press of America
the highest rates Of postage in the
land. "-Erening Meas.
