Now, I do think that such treatment
from men that, we have TO trust with
our public officers is enough to dis
satisfy any one.
Our officials had no right to do q
thing like that. They; should have
known that the law was a law, and
not to have collected any money on it
until they were prepared to fulfill all
their promises, and to protect the
honest unsuspecting good citizens
that trusted to their honor.
Now gentlemen we feel that we
have been unfairly dealt with, but
would be some what comforted IL we
could see any Improvement in the
roads, but the roads and. bridges are
as bad as ever, and we cannot see
where the nice little sum we paid in
has done us any good whatever. I
do not suppose that any county can
boast Of worse roads than Clarendon
and especially this section of the
county. / hope that the roads in
other sections are receiving better at
tention than the roads around here,
If not am very sorry for the other
fellows also.

Supervisor has been appointed to a

\ sec.
Last year we had what we supposed
wac a law passed by our representa-
tives from this county putting
/ license on all vehicles to create a tax
sfor road building. There was con-
siderable dissatisfaction, some claim
ing that it was Unconstitutional and
therefore not a law, but others that
wanted to be on the safe side and do
ffhe right thing paid the tax,got the
Slicense tag from the collectors, and in
Smost cases with the promise that if
all parties were not made to pay that
their money would be returned. Almost
half of our people refused to buy the
license and no steps were taken to
have the offenders punished and some
OF our good citizens that paid went to
the collectors to get the amount that
they paid in returned, but were told
that they could not return the money,

 Musical Program Is Given

The Thanksgiving dinner at the Y. M. C. A. last evening. for the enter tainment of those persons in the War ren District who otherwise would have been obliged to partake of their holiday feast without the congenial surroundings which are the tradition al accessories of Thanksgiving cele- brations, was attended by about fifty. The occasion was notable for an ab- sence Of stiffness and formality. Good fellowship prevailed and was stimu- lated by the wonderful eats provided.
 A musical program was rendered by the Bisbee Jazz Orchestra. Reci- tations by Mrs. Shively and Miss Martha Cooper were enthusiastically received.
 Guy Mayer and Dr. H. c. Zierath divided honors as toastmasters. and introduced several speakers who gave short and witty addresses.

P-D STORE MAKES BIZ REDUCTION
 IN BREAD
l4-ounce Loaves to Be Sold Here for 10 Cents Loaf
 Beginning Today

Bread. "the staff of life" and the staple food of all foods. will take a sharp decline in price in the Warren District today when the Phelps Dodge store will start selling IA ounce loaves of the "Milk Maid brand of bread, Of the Lowell Bakery, at 10 cents loaf.
 This decline in the price of bread is the first that has been noted any where. The reduction is a joint ac- ton taken voluntarily by the bakery and the retailer in an effort to at- tack the high price Of foodsturis in the Warren district Profit in bread at this price is practically eliminated, but they believe that the action is justified and Twill be the forerunner of similar reductions in other lines of food products.
 Bakers in general have shown a distinct inclination to maintain the price of bakery products at their present high level. This is accounted for in a measure by the fact that many of them have been caught with stocks of flour purchased at 'high BAA1Nos 'WlAlit lAOuA itdS OtCiiiACu Eie- terially in price in the last 30 days That this reduction in food product that is used more than any other, should originate in the Warren dis trict. is source of satisfaction to all residents here.
 Joe Hynes, proprietor of the Lowell Bakery, said yesterday mat the net weight of the loaf will be If ounces and that it is scaled off at 16 ounces before baking. French bread will be sold at the same price. Beginning Monday of next week the bakery will produce graham and rye bread at the same price.
 It is believed that this action will practically eliminate the shipping of bread into the Warren district rom outside cities, as other bakers have been unable or unwilling to reduce the price.

 GENEVA, Switzerland, Nov. 25.-No steam roller of big nations is going to run roughshod over this world parliament-the assembly of the league of nations; and the United States senate contention that Great .Britain and her nominations with six votes would rule the assembly is eX- ploded
 These outstanding conclusions are apparent on the basis of developments to date in the first assembly session. The most sensational development of the meeting so far has been the firm seizure of power by Latin America.
 This power, in addition to exploding the six-votes-for Britain bogey has also raised this vital question: Is France going to be able to domi- nate the league assembly through support of the Latin natives of South and Central America?
 Latin America has taken the lion s share of jobs. This block consists of nine South American and four Gen. tral American states, together with Cuba, Haiti and Panama. These 16 Latin-American republics, shepherded by the A. B. c. powers and Spain, elected an Argentine delegate and a Brazilian as two of the six vice-prsi- dents of the assembly in the com mittee elections. They landed one Chilean chairman and three Latin American vice chairmen.
 Significantly, the Chilean heads the committee dealing with the admission

of new nations to the league. Chili is regarded as anything but anti-German. Pueyrredon, the Argentine delegate, has already made powerful speech virtually demanding that all nations be invited into the league.
 France bitterly opposes Germany's admission and is actively canvassing the Latin Americans for support. Fail ing in all else the French rely on the fiery eloquence of Viviani. They know 8 brilliant speech will often sway Latins more than logic. They hope to bring the Latin-Americans to the French viewpoint.
 The nations still tend to group ac- cording to common language and to racial and economic interests.
