JAMAICA DEALERS
FAST BECOME RICH
KINGSTON. Jamaica. July

KINGSTON. Jamaica, July l.
CBy Associated Press)
There has never been so much money
in Jamaica as now. The sugar and
bapana planters are fast becoming
wealthy and If the present wave of
prosperity continues for a few more
years the island Sill have at least a
dozen millionaires.
Before the war sugar fetched only
$50 per ton: today is it bringing $500
per ton in the English market. The
islands Inhabitants are experiencing
great difficulty in getting adequate
supplies and 1t is only through the ac-
tion of the Food Controller that eight
percent of the output is kept for home
consumption. The prosperity of sugar
planters has led to large sums being
invested in the purchase of the most
up-to date machinery for the manu-
facture of sugar. Another central
factory costing $500, 600 will shortly
be erected in the eastern portion of the
island.
This years sugar crop has received
a set back owing to the drought last
ing about three months. The result is
that there will be shortage in the
output.

LAND ri LING TO SLACkEN
ENTRY By N->ERNICE MEN
Montrosc Press

MontTosc PTcsS:-
0. c. Skinner. Of the local land of
fee, this week received an interprc-
tatlon from the gcn.ral land office at
v Washington, which yitally effects cv-
cry cX-servicc man who has made
entry for land ndcr the grazing land
act.
Mr.. Skinner wrote to the land office
asking whether is WIS necessary for
the eN-soldicr to make the full i'm
provemCnt requirements or whether
he was required to make only the pro-
rata part, with full allowance for the
proportion OF time allowed for ser
vice in the army OF navy. The gener-
al land commissioner reported that 1t
was necessary for the eX-serv-ice man
to make the full amount of improve
mentS, Sl.25 an acre, regardless of
how much credit he was allowed on
his previous service.
This means that If an eX-seryicc man
is required to remain as a resident on
the land only months, being allowed
the remaining portion of the time for
service, he will have to make $500 in
improvements during that seven
months or continue residence until he
has completed the $500 improvements.
As many of the men who file on this
land will be unable to make this amount
of improvement within the time they
are required to establish residence on
the land, they will be unable to COM
plete entry or will be forced to re-
main longer on the land.
There are several hundred ex-ser-
vice men who have already filed un-
DER the grazing act, who will be di-
rectly affected by this Interpretation,
which will work a great hardship up
on them and prevent many from gain
ing the land which is so rightfully
theirs. The American Legion post of
this city will be requested to inter
cede in behalf of the ex-service men

A public resolution, approved Au-
gust %, 1916, in congress, states:
His services therein shall, in the
administration of the homestead laws,
be construed to be equivalent to all
intents and purposes TO residence and
cultivation"
The word services means the peri
cd spent in the army or navy and the
local land office interpreted that the
above article meant that if his SER
vices entitled the ex-service man to
two years credit, he would also re-
ceive pro-rata credit on the improve
ment requirements. However, the gen.
eral land commissioner quoted the
following amendment, passed in De-
cember 1916, and made the ruling
mentioned above: "That instead Of
cultivation as required by the home

THEY WHO WOULD
CRUCIFY THE MAN
IN THE WHITE HOUSE

DR.. Burns Jenkins
Humanity sweeps onward: where
today the martyr stands,
On the morrow crouches Judas with
the silver in his hands;
Far in front the cross stands ready
and the cracking fagots burn,
While the hooting mob of yesterday
in silent awe return
To CLEAN up the scattered ashes
INTO HIstory's golden urn.
James Russell Lowell
These lines of the poet tell only the
bare truth, and not all of that. Since
the master of men, on that faraway
day, trod the Vie Doloresa with pa
tient, solemn steps, how many human
beings have followed in the path that
He made, some willingly and bravely,
some cringing and cowardly?
For the world, made up as it is Of
erring men Of passionate impulses,
has in all ages been wont to cruelty or
burn its benefactors, either literally
or fguratively.
The martyrs do not all belong to
the early centuries of our era. Every
century has its tale of outstanding
men of truth and earnestness who
have suffered much for righteousness
sake, even to the loss of life itself.
OF the prophets who have been ston-
ed and destroyed by the Pharisees
and reactionaries of their time, some
bore religious, some social, some polit-
ical messages. iheg a 4
To name only a few from recent CEN
turtles, there were Huss and Wyclif,
Hildcbrand and Savonanola. Robert
Emmett and Toussaint POuverture,
John Brown and Abraham Lincoln.
And the world has not yet learned to
treat kindly those who render it the
noblest service or to cease prosecuting
those who give their lives for its
welfare.
America is witnessing such trage-
dy at this moment. The tactics used
by the enemies of President Wilson to
break him, body and spirit, do not
constitute politics. They are plain
assassination. Nothing in political
history can compare with the callous
cruelty, the inhumanity, and the vile
ness with which these attacks are
carried On.
We are accustomed to think that
the treachery and lawlessness, that
made life cheap in the days of the Bor-
gas and the Medici, are far below
standards of conduct that are possible
today.
And yet the poisoned cup and the
midnight dagger are Intimately less
cowardly and less cruel than the
means that are being used to compass
the destruction of Woodrow, Wilson.
When America wakes to the black
ingratitude and the rank injustice of
the attacks that are being made upon
their chosen leader through personal
hatred and party passion, she will
scatter them as chaff and bring to
nought the work of the little men
who hope to vanquish a brave, noble
soul.
And it is time for America to awake.
