WARS CLEANSING FIRE.

The story of the life of the notor- ious "ganEster" who was murdered in New York a few days ago may not fire, but it tends to add to the evil dcnce that one who fought therein honorably. felt something new enter his viewpoint.
 "MonH' Eastman was said to have been straight for the last ten years; was said to have achieved q splendid record in the war. and to have re- turned to New York a straight mal as his best friends termed it.
 The case recalls one that is unques- toned. man was a diamond thief. He reformed" But while outward ly different man. and while he did give up his former profess.on. his reformation did not penetrate his whole, being. There were sad loop holes.
 He went to war as many such men did. When seen later by an old ac- qua :ntance the very look in his eye told of the change in him. still re formed. he had learned a different meaning for the word. Frankly he spoke. of the incomplete understand ing of a decent life which he had formerly possessed; proudly he ex- plained his present conception and his attempt to live up to it.
 He had been cIeansed by wars fire.
 And so when one meets man who has been over there" an1 when one is surprised at the casual way in which he seems to take his exper- fence, do not jump to the conclusion that he. too. deep in his heart, has not been cleansed. no matter how un- willing he may be to admit it.

NAVY VICTIM
 OF HUN GUILE
 S|MSASSERTS
CBy United Press.)

Washington, March 12.-Charges that the United States navy was the victim of German propaganda during the war were made today by Rear Ad- mlral w. s. Sims, who continued his testimony before the senate subcont- mlttee on naval affairs making an in Vestigation of the navy's conduct in warfare. By means of the propagan- da, Admiral Sims declared that Ger man agents and pro-German citizens made the navy department believe that the chief task of the navy was the defense of the American coast. and not offensive operations in Flu. ropean waters.
 The same cause prevented cooper atlon with the allied navies, Admiral Sims declared, and greatly handicap ped the officers in active command. His testimony was along the lines laid down at Thursdays hearing when he stated that failure of the American navy to attain co-ordinated movement with he allied navies pro longed he war and took a heavy toll Tn lives and materials.

DENIES ADMISSIONS ARE NOT FARMERS LEGION CHARGE UNTRUE Declares G. w. AdkissOn. Half Brother of Cleburne County Man Under
 Pen Sentence.

The statement in Thursdays Ar kansas Gazette attributed to the He Der Springs post of American Legion. to the effect that Tom and Bliss Ad klsson did not intend to plant crop this year and that they have not raised a crop for several years is in- correct, c. W. Adkisson, half-brother of Tom Adkisson, stated to the Log Cabin Democrat today.
 Il know personally that Tom Ad- kisson has not missed raising crop for 20 years," Mir. Addison said. "Even in 1918, during all his trouble, he planted and with the help of the family cultivated a crop of over 75 acres on his home place. Last year he made good crop on a rented place three miles north of Mt. Vernon. where the family is now living and where they expect to make a crop again this year"
 Mr Adkisson said he wished to ab- solve former Governor Donaghey of any adverse criticism in making the request of Governor Brough for stays of sentences in the cases of Tom and Bliss Adkisson. Governor Donaghey made the request as my friend, after I had stated the facts to him. he said. "Tom Adkisson had good farm and considerable personal prop erty, cattle, hogs, etc., but he has lost everything, and his farm is so heavily mortgaged that he has prac- tically no equity in it since his trouble came up," said Mr. Adkisson. His wife has been an invalid for several years and he has only one small boy and three little girls under 12 years old at home"
 MT. Adkisson said there are many circumstances about the case that had not been presented to the general pub lice and, like all cases, there were two sides to this one. 'I do not wish to criticise the Heber Springs legion" he said But they say the governor ought to have investigated before he granted the stays of sentence, and l think the legion should have investi- gated before it made the statements which are reported from it."
