very favorable to the British.
He said he had been trying to get
permission to go to Syria, but he had
just been refused permission and his
passport had been changed so that he
could not go to Turkey or India as he
had planned. He says they seem afraid

tell the truth about conditions there.
He said he will make the whole

walk out in sympathy.
The Inter Union Trust, however. has
subordinated its action to instructions
from the general labor federation, and
the question Of n sympathetic strike
probably will be settled at meeting to .

Representatives of the French
Italian British and Belgian labor or =
,ganizations are scheduled to meet here
today to decide on a simultaneous TWEEN :

tries as a protest against Intervention
in Russia and to obtain full amnesty
and rapid rehabilitation. 1t appeared
early today that only the Italian repre-
sentatives would meet with the French,
the British and Belgian labor organiza
tions having declined to accept.
Rome, June 14.--(By A. r. P.)-Rep-
of the various labor unions
in Italy are meeting daily to perfect
for general strike.
Opinion among the leaders is divided.
Some wish to proclaim a general strike
only simultaneously with the labor or
of England, France and
Belgium. Others want the Italian strike
to be an Independent movement.
There also is a difference in views
regarding the object of the strike. A
number of leaders wish to give the strike
a political character and to protest
against the interference of the Allies
with the Bolshevik governments in Rus
sia and Hungary. Other leaders prefer
to confine the manifestation to labor
problems.

DON'T THIS BEAT YOU?

There is an old saying to the effect
that one cannot get too much of a
good thing, and the fact that our es-
teemed friend, Mr. +. l.. Clark Of
Parowan has just purchased his 9th
Studebaker car not only proves that
he believes in this addage, but also
that in his estimation there is no make
of car to compare with the Stude-
baker. For "A number of years, Mr..
Clark has not failed to exchange for
one of the very latest models, The
last purchase is of a seven passenger
81, 800 model, the one recently brought
here by Dons Garage, the local deal
ers. There is no handsomer, and APP
parently no better car made than the
late Studebaker, and Mr.. Clark be
lieves in keeping fully abreast of the
times. The last car he traded in hac
been run only $500 miles. Many o.

QUESTIONABLE BANKING

The Non-Partisan League now in
full control of the affairs and finan-
ces of North Dakota has gone a long
way toward establishing socialistic
form of government in that state.
North Dakota now has full author
ity to enter into competition with pri-
vate enterprise in the state and by
official power and prestige drive it to
the wall State owned undertakings
naturally will pay no taxes, hence the
general taxpayers must make up the
deficit together with additional ex-
pense entailed by state operation.
North Dakota's banking scheme, in
the opinion Of the Chicago Daily News
is "the most dubious and startling
feature" of the league program.
The bill provides that all state,
county, township, municipal, school
and other public funds as we'll as the
funds of penal. industrial and educa-
tional institutions shall be withdrawn
from the national, state and private
banks and placed with the common
wealth bank. This means the with
drawal of more than $50, 000, 900 from
the present banks, thus Gripping pri-
vate institutions.
Whether the political bank man
agement is likely to be sound and
conservative serious question
Partisan and fractional politics in the
handling of the banks deposits vii
undoubtedly creep in.
And in the meantime the dealings
of customers with the commonwealth
bank will undoubtedly be open to thu
public inspection the same as otheI
state business, thus doing away will
the confidential relation existing be
tween private banks and their pa
irons.
The personal relation between
banker and his customers will b
lacking in the state bank and the hu
name element will enter about a
much as when one buys money OF
