whole thing is perfectly ali right The
police say "Show U.S." William H.
Anderson, who is beginning 10 take s.
fervid interest in the happenings at
Hollis. is out with an announcement to
the effect that there is more in this
than meets the eye.
Thirty-six thousand gallons of rum
are involved in the affair. The pro
hibition agents side of the story is that
the lum originally was the property
Of the Bacardi Corporation. of o67
Broadway. When prohibition became
absolute-or thereabouts-the Barcardi
Corporation went out of business and
the assets were divided among the
stockholders.
A permit was issued by Charles R.
O'Connor, prohibition director. acting
on the authority Of Internal Revenus
Commis issioner Roper, and distribution
OF the liquid assets was begun. Under
the permit, the rum was sent in auto
trucks TO John E. Tench, of Hollis
wood Hall, Hollis, who, it is asserted.
IS stockholder in the Barcardi cor,
poration.
But the arrival of so many trucl.

desertions by Polish troops.
Excitement prevails throughout Po-
and the dispatch says, and state docu-
mEts have been sent to Posen.
The Polish Minister to Germany told
The Associated Press to-day he had
received no such reports and that he
considered them incredible"
The alarming view from Berlin CON
corning reported conditions on the
Polish front are not shared by the
official Polish Bureau of Information
here. which stated yesterday that its
dispatches from Warsaw showed the
Polish front was being strongly held
some $50 to 400 miles east of Warsaw.
This, it was pointed out, made it a
physical impossibility for Warsaw to
be threatened, as the Berlin reports
asserted.
The reports are attributed to exag-
gerated versions of the Polish evacua-
tion of Kiev and the return Of relief
parties to Warsaw. Since then the
line of the Beresina and Dnieper
rivers has been held by the Polish
troops, the Warsaw messages an
nounce, thus placing a zone of several
hundred miles between the battlefront
and the Polish capital

my views by cable to Mr.. Litvinoff, in

Washington, June l9.-The Depart
ment Of Labor was asked too day by the
Department Of Justice TO place Ludwig
c. A. X. Martens, self-stvled Ambassa-
dor of Soviet Russia, under $4,000 bail
to prevent his departure from the
United States pending a decision in
deportation proceedings.
This action was taken, Department of
Justice officials explained. because of
the fear that Martens might follow the
example of Santeri Nuorteva, his sec
rotary, who recently slipped out Of the
country.

We do not believe that the cotton
acreage reduction campaigns have
gotten very far towards solving the
overproduction problem of this type
OF farming. We believe that is the
proper thing for the South to do this
year. However, when you ask farm
er to reduce his acreage he feels like
you are asking him to reduce his in
come. We believe that the solution Of
the whole thing would be better
reached by campaign to see that
every farmer grows enough food for
his family and sufficient feed for his
livestock, would carry more weight
just now than the former method even
though it would mean the same thing.
MISSISSIPPI MUST BUY HUN
DREDS OF CAR LOADS OF CORN

let them grow some other feed to re-
place it. We face difficult problems

something else our corn, even thuogh
prices do not suit us.

The Commercial Appeal, possibly
the South's leading daily, is devoting
almost acres Of space, in news col
umns, editorials and cartoons giving
the Southern farmer the gratuitous
advice to cut his cotton acreage for
1921 in half. Meanwhile, Mr.. Farmer,
the most independent specimen of the
genus homo on earth will do exactly
as he gol darned pleases, raising ex-
actly as much or little cotton as his
judgment dictates. It would seem
thst the Commercial Appeal has use-
lessly ridden that cotton-acreage-re-
aud <I5nshobby long enough to lay off

to a line of ink singing that will
yield results.

Some visionary, constituencies,
press syndicate lately sent out the
story that Senator "Jawn Kay"
Shields, of Tennessee would be the
next Democrat selected to the United
State Supreme bench, and that Re-
publicans appointed would be former
President William H. Taft and former
Associate Justice Chas E. Hughes.
Somebody told Shields about his name
being mentioned in that connection,
and he smiled from ear to ear, blush
ed, and said he was "in no sense
candidate for judicial position A
useless statement, because it is an APP
pointive position and supposed to be
free from political bias. Shields
might get such preferment by ap-
pointment of Republican President,
but it's a cinch the Democrat voters
of Tennessee wouldn't put him there.

We are reliably informed that Hon.
Andrew L. Todd, of Murfreesboro,
who formerly taught school in Lex
ington, is pulling the political wires
to bring about his election as Speaker
of the House Of Representatives in
the next session of the Tennessee
General Assembly. He is just retiring
from the Speakership of the Senate.
Andrew is a politician of extraordi-
nary sagacity, and evidently doesn't
take cordially to the idea of letting
the office seek the man. But the Of

him.

The reminder by the Nashville
Tennessean that the ignorant fool
who steals few hundred dollars or
less, is generally imprisoned for
long term of years, while the shrewd
crook who embezzles millions gets a
short term; that the small unfortun-
ate often comes out broken man and
thereafter leads straight life, while
the big and successful crook, after
liberation, loses no time in resuming
his former operations-all carries
with it the advice to keep in the mar
row way, but if you decide to be a
crook, be a big one. There is not
much chance for the little fellow in
either legitimate or illegitimate bust
ness. The small offender is looked at
askance-even when he tries to do
better, but the many kind of larger
thieves continue to be "hail fellow
well met" to perhaps as many as hope
to get some of their dough" Keep
straight and get your pay in the mere
knowledge that you are honest from
principle, not policy. Charles Ponzi, of
Boston, who swindled eleven thous-
and persons out Of millions of dollars
has plead guilty and was sentenced
to five years in the pen-a hungry
man with a starving family might
have been given a longer sentence for
stealing a piece of meat.

curing mixture should be applied af-
ter the meat has become thoroughly
chilled. This is no experiment. It
has been successfully used by thous-
ands of farmers. In Mississippi,
where saving meat is greater prob
lem that we have here, on account of
the weather being warmer, it has Civ
en- wonderful results. CLIP THIS
OUT AND PUT 1T WHERE YOU
CAN FIND 1T WHEN YOU NEED
