ACcUMyLATloNs OF WINTER
TO-

The weather during the past lew
DAYS has been that OF veritaole
spring, and tidy ~housekeepers are
engaged in celebrating unseemly &C
combinations of the long n trying
winter from which we are now
emerging. Trash is being gathered
and burned. trees are beng TRIM
med and banks of ashes removed.
Huge piles Of the latter are at many
homes, although the City Engineers
Department which has ch"::SSe OF tins
work, has doubtless been doing It's
best towards hauling away such I'M
slightly mounds. Considering the
limited means at its disposal. it has
doubtless done its best. Angels
could do no more.
AS will be seen by the proceed
ings of the foard of Aldermen last
night, a movement looking to the
a~cceleration of this work has been
launched, and should proper legls-
lation by the City Council follow
the work of removing ashes and
dust from homes vii, be placed IN
der the supervision of the Health
Department CT the city.
Nh. Marbury, President of the A.
dermen, submitted a resolution pro-
viding for this change, and it is un-
derstood the Health Department is
ready to assume this duty.
Complaints against the alleged
slow process Of removing unsightly
.accumulations are chronic, although
there is reason to believe those in
charge of the work move as fast as
possible under present conditions.
They are often hampered by lack of
means or men to perform the work
as satisfactorily as they wish. In
der the plan suggested by M, Mar.

For several years the civic league
of thescity has ~endeaVored to accei-
crate interest in cleaning up propa-
gapdas. and considerable work on
this line has been and is still being
accomplished. Our population has
been largely increased in recent
years. and the number of strangers
in our midst is being augmented
daily. \ tidy city is an effectual
advertisement. and it is hoped the
good work Of cleaning up will GO on

GOMPERS POLITICAL MOVE
MENT


There is a lack of precision in
labor mcv ,nent which has been
sponsored by Samuel Gompers. The
head of. the American Federation Of
Labor says that the movement is 70
be ncn-partisan and that twill be
aimed sat those candidates for pub
lie office who are enemies of labor.
But, as is asked by a cotemporarv.
who are to determine the "enemies
of labor" and how is a distinction
to be made between those who lahcr
and those who do not? Mr.. Com
pers attempts to answer part cf
this question by defining labor. He
says that it is not something in
personal, that it is not like a NJ
chine or ii corporation. 1T is" he
says, ''the sun total Of those wio
are useful to the world"
This description will be found TO
include the great majority of the
people. Most men work for a liv-
ing and for that reason most of them
may be fairly clasSed as laborers.
Employers Of labor are certainly
''useful to the world" and so they
may be counted in the Gompers cat
egory. He says that "monev. greed,
political greed and greed for place
and power" have been striking at
our liberties. Granting this. it will
have to be confessed that this form
of greed has been practiced by AL
sorts and conditions of men. While
our soldiers were in France fighting
for the liberty which Mr.. Gompers
describes SO elcquently, many Of
those he eXtols We're at home fight
ing for the highest wages they could
$get and threatening to strike if
demands were not granted.
Fortunately they were IN the mi
nority, and the great bulk of the
PEOPLE. irrespective Of their station
in life, were standing behind the
government. We had no classes in
war times and we should have no
classes. in times of peace. For this
reason purely 'labor movements Ike
purely capitahstie movements cannot
succeed j., his country. Class &C" !

WHISKEY DESTROYED BY FIRE

Fire of unknown origin at the
plant of the Cedar Brook Distillery
company at Lawrenceburg yesterday
destroyed four warehouses, contain
ing seven thousand barrels Of whis-
key. The liquor, it was stated, ap-
proximated 5000 gallons and was
valued at $500 per barrel.
The warehouses and contents were
the property Of the Kentucky Dis
tilleries and Warehouse Company,
the headquarters of which are in
Louisville.
The fire attracted hundreds of
people to the scene, many of whom
brought jugs, bottles and cans in
an attempt to save some Of the
whiskey.

operation in building and paying for
roadways, the whole program calling
for an expenditure of O,O0O, 900,
of which the Federal Government
pays $2O9,OOO,00O and states, coun-
ties and municipalities SOL 100000
The Cooperative Agricultural Ex-
tension Act gave a great impetus to
agricultural education by bringing
Federal and State governments into
close touch for dissemination Of in
formation among farmers by per-
sonal contact. For this work $780,
900 will be annually available by
1922.
Gambling in cotton has been for
ever ended by the Cotton Futures
Act, which regulates marketing, es-
tablishes standards Of cotton and
supervises exchanges.
Through the Grain STANDARDIZED
ton Act, the farmer has been en-
abled to obtain fair prices, and a
financial incentive to produce better
grades has been afforded.
The Warehouse Act has stand
ardized storage and marketing by
providing for licensing of bonded
warehouses and making possible the
issuance of reliable and easily ne
gotiable warehouse receipts, as well
as permitting better storage Of farm
products.
What tremendous stimulus was
lent war time production by the
Government Wheat Guarantee is YET
fresh in the minds of Americans. As
against pre-war price of 81 cents,
farmers were extended a Govern
ment guarantee of 1920, and later
1926 a bushel for wheat as a war
time measure, this assurance ex-
tending to June /, 1920.
The policy Of the administration
in agricultural matters is evidenced
by the fact that the greater part OF
all the legislation on the statute
books of the United States which has
for its purpose the development and
aid of agriculture has been enacted
within the last seven years.

League is the Only
Hope for Europe

k"The only hope for stricken Eu-
rope,v declares DIR. r. H. Crossfield,
president Of Pennsylvania Univer-
sity, ''is the League Of Nations"
Doctor Crossfield has just spent
three months travelling in Europe
and now is in Louisville attending
fthe eighty-eighth annual convention
bf the Kentucky Christian churches.
Conditions everywhere in Europe,
he Says, are terrible. Revolutions in
England are to be expected as the
result of the conflict between labor
and capital and of the dissatisfac-
ton over the manner in which the
Irish question is being handled. In
Austria food simply cannot be OBJ
tanned. In Germany it is to be had in
limited quantities, but at a high
price, meal there now costing
eighty marks.
Switzerland and Belgium are in a
trifle better condition than other Eu-
ropean countries, according to Doc
tor Crossfield. In Switzerland this is
due to the fact that the country was
geographically so situated that it
could trade with both belligerents
during the war. Belgium has pushed
the work of rehabilitation with such
yigor that today food, coal and
manufactured articles are to be OBJ
tanned almost as under normal con-
ditions.
