WILL HANDLE 1921
AUTO LICENCES
County Clerk Richard Lewis to
Act as Local Agent.

Charlevoix auto drivers will in the
future have the opportunity of OBJ
tanning their 1921 automobile licenses
right here at home instead of being
compelled to send to headquarters at
Lansing or the branch office at Petos-
key.
The local office will be in charge OF
County Clerk Richard Lewis at the
court house, and all one will have to do
is to make out the proper application
blank and he will issue the license
wanted. Last season it was found
necessary by the secretary of state to
establish branch office throughout the
state, in order to take care of the thou.
sands of licenses issued yearly, chiefly
because big majority of car owners
waited until they wanted to use their
cars before applying for their license.
The result was that early in the spring
more applications were received daily
than could be cared tor.
The office of the county clerk will be
one of the many branch offices es
tablished in the state. AT present Mr.
Lewis has thousand sets of 1921 licen
ses, and will start to do business a.
soon as the 1921 season begins.

YES, SAME OLD PET NAMES
Married Couple Employed Them as in
the Engagement Days, but They
Were Embellished.

The married lady at the wedding
party wiped her eyes and grasped the
brides hands fervently.
"Oh, my DEAR" she said feelingly,
II only hope that Mr.. Dinwaddie and
you will be as happy as my husband
and / are. Through all the twenty
years Of our married life we have con-
tinued to use to each other the dear
little pet names of our engagement
days."

Don't you ever think of anything
except eating, darlingr asked the
lady with a sour look.
Don't talk like an idiot, little sugar
plum; I'm hungry" was the reply.
SWELL ducksy, you've been hungry

INDUSTRIAL PLANTS
IN RUSSIA ARE idle
Production Has Declined to Point
Where Complete Paralysis
Is Threatened.

Industrial productivity In soviet
Russia under the bolshevist plan Of
naturalization of industry has de-
clined TO point where complete paral-
ysis is threatened. This information
Is contained in reports made In Mos
cow of economic conditions In Russia
made before a recent session of the
congress Of delegates from councils
of national economy, trade unions and
the Moscow soviet.
In his report, A. Rykoff, chairman Of
the supreme council Of national econ
omy, stated that there were 10000 in
dustrial establishments In Russia when
the soviet was established. The peas
ants industry is not subject to ma
tionalization, leaving 1000 factories
which have been nationalized. OF these
1000 are said to be idle. The num-
Der Of workers Is said to be fewer than
100000, indicating that the manu-
featuring industry In Russia is In the
throes of crisis.
The Rykoff report shows that Rus
sian industries are supplying less than
one-fourth Of the needs of the nation,
and that, Russia today is living only
one-half as well as she did before the
war. Furthermore, 1t is pointed out,
Russia now Is consuming supplies left
over from the pre-bolshevik period.
These are said to be nearly ex-
hausted
Russian workers, II is asserted, are
leaving the cities In search Of better
living conditions in labor communes
and soviet farms, while q considerable
number of skilled workers have re-
mained In the army, leaving Russian
industries with very low percentage
Of skilled mechanics.
At the same conference Trotzky ex-
planned the Russian industrial crisis
as being due to lack of technical equip
ment. 1t was pointed out, however,
that many plants which require no
technical equipment are idle or are
working only few departments.

Treaty BacE- To President

Washington, March 2O-The
treaty of Versailles was returned
TO President Wilson today by the
Senate after it had failed of rat
for the fourth time, last
night. There is no intilnation as
to what the President will do
with the treaty. White House
officials said the usual mode Of
procedure will be to send it to the
State Department for burial in
the archives. The document which
was delivered to the Senate by
the President in person last July
10th was taken to the White
House by George Sandcrson, the
clerk of the Senate.

SENATE AGAIN
DEFEATS TREATY
Beckham and Stanley Split On
Ratification Vote, Which
Was 49 To 35.

Washington, March 20-The
treaty of Versailles failed Of rat
ihcation for the fourth time last
night and then the Senate voted
to send it back to President Viii
son with notification that it had
finally refused to advise and
consent OF its ratification"
On the decisive roll call the
vote was 40 for ratification to 35
against, the opposition number
ing in its ranks 20 democrats who
were unwilling to see the treaty
go through with the republican
reservations objected to by the
President, and three democratic
and II republican irreconcilables.
TWenty-One democrats quit the
Presidents lead and voted for
ratification but the detection fail
ed by seven votes of providing
the two-thirds requisite to ratify.
The result was regarded every
where in the capital as having
put over into the political cam
paign for decision the long and
bitter fight between the Chief
Executive and the Senate major
ity. A move to reconsider. the
vote and try once more to ratify
collapsed in its inception, leaders
on both sides agreeing that fur
ther ratification efforts would be
d waste of time as long as the
Senate membership remains as it
is.
The next step planned by the
Senate majority is declaration of
a state of peace to relieve the ma
ton OF the war status which the
democrats maintain can be end
ed only by the treaty's ratiiica-
ton. A fight on the proposal will
begin when the Senate recon-
vencs Monday.
The roll call on ratification
came four months, almost to the
hour after the failure of the three
attempts at ratification, on No
vembcr l9. On that occasion the
greatest strength developed for
ratification with the republican.
reservations was II votes, only
seven democrats voting with the
republicans III the Affirmative. The
vote against was 81, made up Of
Is republicans and 50 democrats
Senator Beckham, of Kentucky
voted to ratify the treaty with
the reservations. while Senator

INTER- CHURCH IDEA
EXPLAINED TO PASTORS
Great Religious Movement Gets
Big Impetus AT Meetings In
City This Week

Dean E. C. McDougle, of Eastern
Normal, is back from Louisville,
where he attended the gathering of
ministers, for discussion of the great
Inter- Church Movement, which has
taken such a strong hold upon the
religious world Dr.. Homer Carpen-
ter, and Miss Anne DeJarnette, of
this city, were there also.
All but the most intense denor1ina-
tional partisans seem to be uniting
and endeavoring the big movement.
The Disciples of Christ, the Presby-
terians U. s., the Presbyterians, U. S.
A, the Methodist Protestants, the.
Methodist North and the Methodist
South passed resolutions at denomina-
tional meetings of various churches in
Louisville indorsing the Movement
4 joint resolution of the churches
to that affect was presented to the
State Pastors Conference there.
Rev James I. Vance, Nashville,
known as the father of the Inter-
church World Movement, says
tPeople who say that we are try
ing to destroy denominatiohal ale
glance don't know what they arc
talking about" "If possible the
movement wants to strengthen this
allegiance, but church competition
must be wiped away so that the COM
mon task of the question as to evan
gelizing the world may be achieved.
In answer as to why the movement
has been 50 criticised he pointed out
that its bigness is the answer. at
may fail, but only if the churches re-
fuse to cooperate, only if intense de
nominationalism declines to do team
work"
He told how in December, 1918, with
the aid Of Charles II. Pratt, he started
the movement, claiming it developed
from the first in the most orderly
manner Dr., Vance declared that if
the Protestant churches will work, to-
gether their efficiency will be multi
piled and their power quintupled, for
f"all have the same Bible, worship the
same Savior and cherish common
hope"
In regard to the survey he said it
was being made to ascertain facts, so
. that saner and more efficient church
programme may be effected, unccu-
pied fields reached end competition
eliminated
There are churches which want to
save the world, but they want to
save it in their own way, said DIR.
Vance at the meeting Of the state
pastors. "They feel better satisfied
when the soul goes home to God in
the good old Baptist way or happy
Methodist way or dignifed Presby-
terian way"
He pointed out that the Interchurch
World Movement it a get-together
movement, an efficiency movement,
world movement, and asked: "Why
should not churches achieve success
without the sacrifice of their doc
trinal beliefs as did the Welfare
Drive where Jews, Protestants. Cath
oiics worked for a common good. A
church that prefers to walk alone
Twill soon discover that its solitude is
that of the graveyard
In conclusion he said: "The object
is world brought to Christ, and
never was there such a summons to
men to forget their differences, pool
their prayers and coordinate their
forces.

WHY KENTUCKY ROCK
ASPHALT IS BEST
For Street Paving Told By Rod
man Wiley, Former State
Road Commissioner
Kentucky Rock Asphalt is a M


tural product composed of about
92 IL percent silica sand and !
1-2 per ceilt bitumen. it is quar-
ried, crushed and pulverized to
about the consistency of coa1 Sc
meal it is not heated and no ma
terial is added. 1t is transported
by water from the plant to Bowl
ing Green, Ky, the nearest avail
able railroad station, unloaded
from the barges into open top rail
road cars, or stored ready for
shipment. Therefore it is posi-
bic at all times to make prompt
shipments.
In building a street with a con-
crete base-leave the surface of
the concrete rough, paint coat and
apply the Kentucky Rock Asphalt
or spread one layer crushed stone
over the green concrete base and
and the stone about IL imbedded
in the concrete affords excellent
anchorage, then spread the Ken
lucky Rock Asphalt.
The material can be rolled with
a tandem roller or a roller Of the
macadam type.
The aggregates of any type of
pavement determine its wearing
quality-contrast the irregular
grains of pure silica sand which
compose the aggregate of Ken
tuckky Rock Asphalt, with the
various aggregates that are used
in the ether types, and anyone
will be convinced that Kentucky
Rock Asphalt will outwear all
ether types of pavement.
Highway engineers contend
that the following points should
be taken into consideration in de-
termining the type of pavement
