GLASS REPUDIATED
IDEALS OF WILSON
LONDON SAYS PLACED AMERICA
IN POSITION OF GIVING A
DROWNING MAN ADVICE BUT
NOT THROWING HIM A ROPE.

LONDON-Secretary Glass has
placed America in the position of a
man who is willing to give drowning
fellow excellent advice but Twill not
throw him a rope" the Chronicle
said today.
Commenting upon the secretary's
letter to the United States Chamber
of Commerce, in which he said the
United States could not undertake to
finance further the requirements of
Europe, the newspaper declared if
"Great Britain we're to adopt the
American attitude the pound soon
would reach its normal value in New
York"
"But Great Britain is too close to
Europe" the Chronicle continued,
"and she shared Europe's sufferings
during the war"
Other newspapers, however, took
a more hopeful view and saw in
Glass letter needed advice to the
British people. The Times declared
it unpleasant but wholesome adj
vice." asserting the "allies must
economize."
Newspaper opinion generally was
divided. Some publications pointed
out that while Glass suggested dis
armament, he did not remember the
American policy of big navy and her
failure to enter the league of ma
tions.
Glass statements may seem harsh
but further loans from the United
States will encourage further extrav-
agance, internal borrowing and inf1a-
ton of the currency" the the Daily
Herald asserted.

AUTO Law TO Be
RIGIDLY ENFORCED
COUNTY OFFICERS MUST SEE TO
1T THAT EVERY MOTOR We
HICLE is TAGGED.

The following is a part of let
ter received by Sheriff Turner from
Secretary of State S. G. McLendon
which bears on the new automobile
tax law:
"Section A of the motor vehicle
law provides that: Every owner OF
a motor vehicle or motor cycle shall,
on or before the first day of March
in each year, before he shall operate
such motor vehicle or motor cycle,
register in the office of the Secretary
of State. and obtain license etc.
"This department calls your atten-
ton to the fact that no exception
whatever is made. All federal gov
eminent and all of its department
officers, agents and employees must
register and pay the required fee. All
state officers and state institutions
must likewise pay the required fee,
All municipalities and municipal de-
partments must pay the required fee.
The machinery provided for the col
lection of these fees is very simple
and ought to be very effective.
"Section 10 requires the Secretary

Americans to Be Asked to Glue
$4,000, 900 to Campaign Funds

to be a minimum and probably the
1920 bill will reach 100000.
New York, the home of wealth and
the headquarters of large corpora
lions, is being called upon, as usual,
to contribute the lions share of the
political Jackpot" One instance will
suffice to show this.
The "official" Republican national
campaign fund has been placed at
$5,000,O0O, and the state of New
York has been allotted the task of
obtaining S2,0O0,000 of that amount
with an additional assessment" of
S5OO,OOO for the state campaign"
Republicans are charging that the
Democrats have planned a campaign
fund of $1O,OO0,000 to elect a sue
cessor to Woodrow Wilson
Both Democrats and Republicans
plans, as projected, fade into inslg-
nifcance when compared to the anti
saloon league plan for political
"war chest" which soon IS to begin.
The announced purpose Of the league
is to obtain this year the staggering
sum of S25,000,000 Having made
the country dry, the organization
proposes to keep it dry. The lid is
to be nailed down.
The proposed national political
funds for 1920 therefore may be
Republican Cadmitted) $5,OOO,OOO
Democratic (charged) $10,OOO,-
0OG.
Anti-Saloon league (authorized)
$25, 100000.
Total $40,0O0,000.
To this sum, which would have
seemed to be huge, indeed, before
the world war, but probably will
fail to startle in the present upward
rush of the cost of living and of
running for office, must be added
the amounts which are to be contrib
uted for state, congressional and
municipal elections and the organized
labor fund which is to be expended
after the fashion of the anti-saloon
league itself.

each sheriff to swear out warrants

LOAN TO EUROPE
is STRONGLY OPPOSED

WASHINGTON. = Opposition in
congress to any further loans by the
United States to Europe has been so
stiffened by Secretary Glass state
ment this week, that America had
reached the limit, that there is
strong possibility congress will not
even appropriate money to help feed
hungry foreigners.
Two developments today indicated
the strength of the opposition to for
eign loans. The house ways and means
committee voted to limit the proposed
loan for feeding Austria, Armenia
and Poland to $5O,0OO,00O. President
Wilson asked for $150,O00, 1000.
