CzECHosLovAKIA.

In its latest bulletin the Guaranty Trust COM
pany of New York gives some interesting news
Of Czechoslovakia compiled from correspond
ence from people who are the ground to see
what is going on. The picture presented of the
new nation which came into being in own
country is altogether encouraging. First and
foremost the people of Czechoslovakia are back
ing their government with their money, sure
evidence of faith The first 'sLiberty'' loan
was oversubscribed nearly four times, and the
number of subscribers is nearly hundred
and ninety-two thousand A currency system
has been worked out. Trade relations are be-
ing discussed with view to establishing a pro
gram free from present restrictions. The popu-
lation of Prague has increased by nearly two
hundred thousand persons, many of them com
ing thither from Vienna. 1t is apparent that
there is conviction in Austria that the new CAPT
tai is destined to be important European
commercial center. All this is interesting, par
ticularly to American business. Czechoslovakia
is bound by firm friendship to this country.
It's president has already proclaimed his desire
to-put in operation soon possible recipro-
cal trade with the United States. It would
seem that the new nation would soon adjust it's
difficulties and be ready for the multifarious
improvements its industries need.

Mr. Lorimer then asks: S.What are we to
do about it here in America?' And foremost
of all needs for our home program he foresees
putting up the barrier against any influx OF
foreign agitators such as the Russian bolshe-
wiki are preparing to send abroad. He declares
that two-thirds of our troubles are imported
and he wants the nation to stop importing them.
There can be no question that we have sooner
or later to face our problem of regulating I'M
migration, facing it with the necessity OF pro-
tecting ourselves against undesirables and with
the. necessity of encouraging the immi grafton
of honest workers, particularly those workers
who will help us solve our shortage of labor on
the farms.
But the menace to us here at home is not 50
imminent as the menace to our cause In the i'm.
minent protection of the world from world and
turmoil. We kept Germany from threatening
JUS in our homeland by beating her on her own
frontiers Bolshevism are apparently IN
clined to ignore; we are apparently to treat it
Jas the choice of Russia and it may be other ma
lions under self-determination. But there is no
evidence in published information that the Rus
sian people by representative action have chos-
en- bolshevism as their form Of government.
Representatives of its foes In Russia clamor for
our recognition. Bolshevism is not democracy
it cannot be until the whole people speak and
a majority declares for it. To admit bolshe-
vism into a world safe for democracy is just
only when bolshevism establishes itself by
democratic means.

THE EIGHTH DISTRICT CONTEST.

The. Eighth. Congressional Dis
trict of Kentucky. as thoroughly
American asregion as there is in
this country, has an opportunity
before it in the special election
of August 2. All other political
divisions in the State have pri-
mary to consider, but the Eighth
district alone has the right to
elect a public officer to sit in
Congress as its representative
until the end of the unexpired
term of the late Harvey Helm.
In Judge Charles A. Hardin the
Democrats have a nominee whose
excellence of character, native
ability, culture and responsible
ty it gives The Times real pleas
ure to assert.
Judge Hardin leaves practical
ly a permanent place on the
bench to:make this race for a
short term. 1t was a hard deci-
sion.for him, for all the persua-
sionssof inclination and material
advantage were against it. He
is making his fight on national
issues and supports wholly the
Presidents programme, both in
ternational and national. His
opponent, Capt. King Swope, is
a man whom The Times would
not for moment disparage; but
it prefers for Congress Judge
Hardin and his platform as GER
tain to contribute more toward
the achievement of permanent
peace in that his election will be
an unqualified Endorsement of
the League of Nations and the
work of the. Peace Conference.
Such an outcome will have a real
effect upon proceedings in the
Senate and will also send to Con-
gress a thoroughly worthy man.
The Eighth district is as typ
zeal of the citizenship Of Ken
lucky as could be found; rich ag-'
riculturally, gemmed with fine
cities like Shelbyviile. Danville,
Harrodsburg, Stanford, Lam
caster, Richmond, Nicholasville,
Taylors Vile, Lawrenceburg.

few of theimany; close politically;
wholly American. 1t is an honor
to represent such a constituency.
