THREE men INJURED
IN MOTOR CAR CRASH
Fractured Skull And Bones
Result Of Trackmen's
Car Jumping Rails

A serious accident took place Tues
day, just after noon, on the M. H.
q E. Railroad, one mile North Of
Dukehurst, when the motor car in
charge of Joy Wheeler, section fore
man, left the rails, apparently with
out cause.
bud" Taylor was dangerously in
jured, he having suffered a fractur-
ed skull, the crushing of his left arm
and painful injuries in the region of
his hips and left shoulder. The exact
extent of his injuries could not be
determined. Shelby Lee sustained
painful injuries about the head, and
was otherwise badly bruised. Marvin
Murphy was also bruised and consid-
erably "stove up" The other five
men who were on the car at the time
escaped with slight bruises and the
loss of small patches of skin, here and
there.
The West-bound passenger piT;ed
up the crew, including the injured
and brought them to Hartford, where
the wounds of all were dressed by
Drs. Pendleton and Riley, at the To-
cal depot. The men who were upon
the car at the time it wrecked all
reside at Sunnydale and were in the
employee of the L. & n. r. R. Co., as
trackmen on the Sunnydale section
The men state that the car was run
ming at the rate of about 1 5 miles per
hour when the accident occurred,
which happened on the high dump
near, or on, the Thomas Duke farm.

tested against that "demarche."
However, expected as it was, the
actual news that the agreement Is a
"fait accompli" set the diplomatic
world agog with a tremendous flow of
gossip because of the far-reaching
consequences it involves, bringing
about as it Is. virtual realignment of
the whole European balance of pow
err.
One interesting point that Is only
beginning to dawn upon observers is
that the projected Bagdad railway,
that eternal subject of friction be-
tween Germany and Britain in the
pre-war days, and one of the invisible
but powerful causes Of the war, has
quietly passed into British control.
For appearances sake, 1t is true,
Britain has consented to leave under
the supervision Of Italy, France and
Greece those sections of the line that
traverse territories under mandates
to be held by those nations.
Constantinople An Obstacle
Then there is Constantinople. The
British are in control of that capital
and are most likely to stay for Pre-
mier Lloyd George AYERS the troops
will not be withdrawn until the Turks
evacuate Erzerum, which is to be Ar
menia's outlet; the Turks show no in
tention of getting out of that big for
tress city and the Armenians have no
way of expelling them.
When allied statesmen object to
Britain's policy of military occupa-
ton in the East. Lloyd George has as
his trump card, the answer that
France took Frankfort, holds Frank
fort and means to stay in Frankfort
until the German Reichswehr gets out
of the Rhur district.
All things considered, diplomats
here believe San Reno will prove the
death bed of the Supreme Council as
now constituted, and the conferences
will end in the same sort of deadlock
that has been the result of so many
other interallied confabs.
However, this and the previous
gatherings has procured some highly
valuable results for Britain, for tho
the larger world issues remain unset
tied, the contract with Italy means
another milestone in Britaip's solidi-
fication Of her position as The arbiter
OF Europe and the East

PAYS GOOD PRICE
FOR TWO DOG TAGS

Mr.. r. p. Coleman, of Beaver Dam,
answered a summons in County
Court recently, to show cause as to
why he had not listed and procured
tags for his dogs. The two tags pro-
cured, coming through the County
Court, cost him $17OO.
Again we remind those who have
not needed the statute in the matter
of the tag and dog tax proposition,
that by going to the County Clerks
Office, they may yet list their dogs,
pay the regular fees and escape the
payment of fines and cost. We say
they may do so, prosecutions are not
apt to be instituted against those
who, even at this late day comply
with the injunction to pay the tax
and secure ever present evidence, the
tag to be worn by the dog.

PEACE MEASURE
TO Be REVISED
Senate Committee For In
Guiding Both Austria
And Germany

Washington, April 2O.-Peace with
Austria as well as Germany will be
declared in the resolution which the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee
will report to the Senate. The reso-
luton will be substitute for the Por-
ter resolution passed by the House,
which declared peace with Germany
only.
The Senate resolution also will pro-
vide for the repeal of all war legisla-
ton. including the espionage act, the
Overman act and others which con-
ferred extraordinary powers on the
executive departments of the govern
ment more successfully to prosecute
the war, but which remain on the
statute books despite the fact that the
war has long been over.
The form of the resolution was dis
cussed at an executive session of the
committee today. The Republican
members of the committee are a unit
in favoring a new resolution instead
of the Porter resolution, and of in
Guiding both Austria and Germany in
the declaratory resolution. 1t is be-
lieved the resolution will be agreed
upon in the committee before the end
of this week. Action IN the Senate
early next week is looked for.
In Favor of Redraft,
The objections raised by Repub-
lican senators to the Porter, resolu-
ton are that it contains too many
matters and that the vote by which
it was passed in the House demon
strates conclusively that it could not
be passed over veto if the President
should reject it.
The resolution will start out with
formal repeal of the resolution
which declared war to exist between
the United States and Germany, will
declare commercial and trade rela-
lions re-established and will repeal
by name many of the emergency acts
which were put thru as war legisla-
ton.
Ignore Hichcock's Absence.
Republican members of the COM
mittee indicated today that they will
go ahead with their plans to report
the peace resolution to the Senate ir-
respective of whether Senator Hitch
cock and other administration leaders
are here or not. When Senator
Hitchcock left Washington to begin
his campaign in Nebraska he asked
Senator Lodge to postpone action on
the resolution until he returned. Sem
atoy Lodge was unable to give suck
promise, however, and the resolu-
ton will come from the committee by
party vote within a few days
Senator Lodge and other Republic
cans on the committee take the po-
sition that the Democrats intend to
oppose the resolution anyway so there
is no necessity for postponing action
on it until they are all here.

So much has been said and written
on Americanization that people are
beginning to tire Of the term. Yet
when we stop to analyze all that has
been done we realize that very little
has been said or written of the pro-
per sort. Everybody is talking immi-
grafton, assimilation, naturalization
and other similar topics with an air
of authority and competency. The
result is that the poor immigrant is
confronted with an army Of authori-
ties ready to strangle him with their
nonsensicaI remedies. In their Gag
erness to bend him they are crush
ing him without regard to his feel
igs, sensibilities and respect.
A glance at the many letters sub
mitted to the New York Tribune on
this subject will substantiate what |
say. The consensus of opinion seems
to interpret the term Americoniza-
ton as Prussianization. Hard-head-
ed and hard-hearted so-called spe-
cialists are clamoring for compulsory
assimilation. In other words they
seek the anihilation and destruction
of the culture of our immigrant
classes along the same lines with
which Germany endeavored to Ger
manize the peasants of Alsace-Lor-
raine.
OF course it is all wrong, abomi-
nably wrong. No sensible, right
thinking man can conceive it other
wise.
You may force a. horse to water,
but you cannot force him to drink.
Apply this proverb to the case in
hand and determine for yourself
whether we can ever hope to Ameri-
canize one single alien by compulsory
methods. 1t is very easy to compel
a. man to learn English and it is still
easier to force him to secure his citi-
zenship papers, but it is not easy to
force any man to love America after
ou have antagonized him.
Senator King disagrees with me.
He is convinced that horse may be
forced to drink. He has introduced
a law which aims to deprive foreign
language newspapers of second-class
mail privileges. In other words, he
seeks the destruction and annihila-
ton of our press by Prussian law.
The passage of such law would
so increase the mailing expenses of
a newspaper as to throw it out Of
business. What wonderful, admir-
