Great Military
 Plans are Made
 to Combat Reds

Berlin, March 23.-An automobile trip, made by the correspondent of the Associated Press this afternoon through the industrial district in the eastern outskirts of Berlin which, during Saturday night, was the scene of severe fighting between troops and Spartacans, brought to light the ex- tensive military preparations that had been made to cope with the ac- tivities of the Reds there.
 The suburb of Kopenick, east of Johannisthal, and Aldershof, where day evening had become a big mili- tary camp. The correspondent saw at least a dozen camouflaged field pieces and numerous machine guns and much ammunition.
 The principal fighting yesterday was precipitated by an attempt of the soldiers to seize benzine plant near Aldershof. The district was quiet today, but further trouble was expected.
 Returning to the city the automo- bile passed a long string of armored cars, mounted machine guns and truckloads of soldiers going to re- inforce the encamped troops.
 It appears the government, howev- CT, is keeping it's steps in the back ground as much as possible.
 The only news available to the pub lie today came from leaflets dropped from airplanes containing the gov ernment's proclamation.

reaches defiance both of the courts

breaches defiance both of the courts of the land and the new code of DO litical morality? Has not such q one sounded the depth of official deprav- ityP Granting that Senator New berry has been guilty of a crime what view shall we hold of 2 man who would capitalize this crime?
 The poor woman who is sent int the streets to traffic in her honel may be either weak or vicious. She may even have some good qualities At best, however, she is standing on the bottom rung of the moral ladder but even then she is almost angelic in her purity when compared with the man, or woman either, who send her out and makes capital out of her crimes.
 For the United States senate tu scourge out Senator Newberry and then to sit cheek by jowl with Senator Sherman is for that body to convict itself of the ancient and foolish transgression of straining at gnat and swallowing camel,--The Commercial Appeal.

Detectives Cause
 of Killings, Say
 Kentucky Miners

Middlesboro, Ky, March 23.--Har- Ian county, Ky, on the Kentucky Virginia boundary, was the scene to- day of much excitement. Bands of miners were searching the county for operatives of a detective agency, who was alleged to have started fighting at Wallins creek Saturday night with miners, which resulted in the killing of three persons and wounding of several others. The clash was the outgrowth of ill-feeling said to have existed in the Harlan county coal fields because of importation last week of a group of detectives by the Kentucky Steam Coal company, where d strike is on.
 The guards were later sent back to West Virginia.
 The miners of the county, number ing several hundred, are reported armed with rifles and pistols and searching for any of the detectives in the county.

THE SPIRIT OF ROTARY.

We have with us today the Rotary club members from Louisiana, Ar kansas and Mississippi. They are here for a two-day conference, and the Graphic wants to add its welcome to the welcome of the entire city.
 Every man and woman, every busi- ness enterprise is glad to have the Rota rians as guests of Pine Bluff. Rotary is pretty widely advertised organization, and nearly everyone is familiar with it. Therefore the vel come is genuine one. The people are familiar with the works os Ro- tary, and their tribute is therefore willingly given.
 Rotary has the finest motto of any organization-"se above self" It is the golden rule, the teachings of Christ,s the spirit ct Christianity and brotherly love com bined.
 There are fewer phrases oe three words that could mean more. The spirit of Rotary would have pre- vented the world war. The spirit of Rotary would mean an end to misery and proverty and crime, if it were the watchword of the world. It would be better than the precepts of the prophets as guide for us in the conduct of our every day affairs It is better than the golden rule for man in his home, in government it would be better than ideal socialism or ideal democracy.
 But mottos are empty unless tbose swho hold them high follow them. Not only has Rotary the finest mot to, but it comes nearer to living np to that motto than most organiza. tions. It is this fact that makes Rotary respected and admired. R It is not the ideals but the deeds pf Rotarians which count

WHAT ABOUT SHERMAN:


 sg Now that United States Senator Truman Newberry has been convict cd and faces prison sentence for violating the corrupt practices act in his election, his party colleagues are turning against him. and prob ably will snub him even if they do ,. not seek his ejection, should he be so rash as to attempt to take his seat in the senate chamber. Such < 3 sentiment seems to prevail in re- publican ranks regardless of the , fact that Senator Newberry is the same man he has always been and the same individual his colleagues were proud to associate with even after his indictment. There is one republican, however, who cannot with consistency join any movement to \ slight or snub Senator Newberry, and he is none other than Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman, the apotheosis of partisanship in the upper branch of congress.
 Speaking of this brings up the question of why Senator Sherman should have any more righ. of asso- citation with other senators tsan Senator Newberry If Senator New berry be guilty of fraud upon th' electorate of Michigan, then surely is. Senator Sherman guilty of seek ing and conniving at fraud upor the whole citizenship of the ynitet States. Even in the haste with which events go by in this country we cannot have forgotten Sena.oi Sherman's infamous speech in the senate when he pleaded with mem bers of his party to stand by New berry, whether guilty or not guilty and even threatened them if they dio not. Surely there has not passed out of the popular mind these words oi Senator Sherman:
 Unless MT. Newberry is saved
 this chamber will be for awhile,
 until the governor of Michigan
 
 single republican votes with the
 minority. This meek heroic yir-
 tue must cease. MT. President,
 serve timely notice upon the
 senator on this side of the
 chamber that they must be re
 pubIicans or there will be di-
 x,aran snnatOrs here who will
 refuse to do anything.
 Even if proven guilty in the nigh est. courts, Senator Newbcrry has on z " followed what formerly vas GUS tom among rich men of buying seat in the senate if they desired it Of course. any such action is wholly wrong and totally indefcns'Dls But wllst slaall we say of senator wh'
