And l agree with the

president.
The time-honored doctrine OF
splendid isolation is out of date; the
American people can no longer live
to themselves. They must enlarge
the scope of their Monroe Doctrine
and give it a worldwide application.
For democracy and militarism cannot
live together in this world. no matter
how far apart they may be. Ten years
ago. no one ever dreamed that this
country would fight German militar-
ism. And your government did its
best to stay out of the European war,
but 1t was impossible. Today, the
German militarism is no more. but
its prestige still lives and thrives In
the Far East. The trouble center OF
the world has been shifted from the
Balkans to the Orient, snd II the
Oriental questi IN is not settled WISE
ly. it will NOT be very long before the
American people will be called upon
to fight another militarit m In order
to make the world safe Tor democ-
racy.
Now, / am no pessimisr, but do
not believe in the blind optimism
which ignores facts for the sake Of a
theory. The sooner the American
people face the facts in the Orient al
they are rather than what they would
like to have them to be, the better it
will be for America AMI for the
world. For that reason, instead of
making my address insplr.stional, as
Is the custom on an occasion of this
kind, am going to make ! / informa-
tive; am going to tell yo7 few
things which the man In the street
does not have the chance to read or
hear.
Right after the armistice was sign
ed, every one of the allied and asso-
ciate powers, including the United
States, sent its secret service men to
the Orient to report to their respec-
tive governments. A portion of
the American fleet has been dispatch
ed to the Pacific for a particular pur.
pose. Students of International pol
itics can feel the chilling atmosphere
of the coming storm. What is the
cause of all this coming trouble? Two
words will answer it-Japan's ambi-
tions. What are her ambitions and
what does she propose to do? Con-
solidation OF Asia under her domina-
tion is the ultimate goal Of Japan's
am billions. Japanese statesmen will
quarrel and wrangle among them
selves concerning their internal af-
fairs, but ON this larger question of
their national life, there is harmony
of action and unity Of purposes
among all japanese leaders. There
Is some liberalism in Japan, but Jap
anese liberalism is kept in show cases
for exhibition purposes. especially to
the American people. Right now.
Japan is spending millions OF dollars
in America to carry on her propa-
ganda of covering up her designs and
4 ambitions in the Ear East. But a.
soon as she completes her goal, all
this smoke screen will be swept away.
and there will be drawn dagger dag
gers, pointed at the heart Of the Unit
ed States. Then can California no
longer pass an Alien Land Law. then
can the United States no longer en-
force its Monroe Doctrine without an
armed conflict. Then what we COM
monty hear Of the appeal from the
Japanese government will he convert
ed into demands backed up by an
armed force.
j 1t must not be forgotten that Asia

SExTET WILL SING

coIored Singers From Piney Woods
Industrial School to Give Concert
at Methodist Church Tuesday
Nisht-Arrangsd by Rotary Club
For Benefit of School.
A sextet Of colored singers from
Lawrence jones' Piney Woods In
dustrial School. Braxton, Miss, will
give q concert that Is being ar
ranged by the Rotary Club at the
Methodist church Tuesday night for
the benefit Of tho school. These
singers were prevented by rain from
giving a concert at Elmwood Country
Club July s. The concert will con-
sist Of a series OF so-called spirit
uals," religious and revival songs
peculiar to the southern negroes.
Special interest attached to the
coming of the singers because the
school from which they come was
founded by Lawrence Jones, the first
colored boy to be graduated from the
local high school. Begun in q very
small way. the work Of the school
has been gradually enlarged in
scope until 1t now is reaching fair
sized proportions.
The admission charge Is to be 80
cents and all Of the money taken in
will 60 to the school. The church
will be opened at 1880 and tho con-
cert will begin at :. The Rotary Club,
u, I, .o,m,
In addition to promoting the CON-
cert, which IL open to all, Il gath
ering subscriptions from its men,

The high cost Of loving, the high
cost Of litigation and tho high cost
Of rearing families have failed to
curtadl marriages, law suits and
children. On the contrary all show
an increase over those Of q year ago,
according to the reports Of the clerk
Of the district court for the year
from July 1. 1919, to July l, 1920,
prepared for the state. The COM
parsons are drawn with the year
from July /, 1915, to July /. 1919.
There Is no denying the fact that
fitting up O. home has become more
expensive. that the new schedule Of
prices adopted by the attorneys
shows no decreases from the charges
formerly in vogue, and DR.. Stork's
assistants value their services higher
than they did when potatoes were so
cents bushel and sugar was served
on restaurant tables.
Court Cases Increase.
The report shows some very in
teresting figures. The Increase in
probate cases in the district court
over the previous year was small
and what might be expected with
tho natural growth of the county,
but with an increase Of so per cent
In cases filed in district court 1t
may be inferred that tendency ex-
lists toward belligerency among liti-
giants, possibly growing out OF the
long state Of war or, moro likely, be-
cause of feeling Of unrest due to
sky rocketing prices. Because OF the
return OF soldier sweethearts to the
girls they left behind them one may
find reason for an increase of 81 per
cent In the number OF marriage
licenses issued, and II there IL any
indication that the high living cost
Is affecting domestic relations 1t
may be found in the increase Of 81
per cent in divorces. There IL no
reason. however. why the birth rate
should show the remarkable increase
Of $40 per cent, unless 1t be that the
moro rigid law compels physicians to
report births promptly.
Lawyers Have Mors Business.
The statistics indicate that the
lawyers have had more business in
the year just closed than they en-
ioyed tho previous twelve months.
The probate cases for the year last
past numbered 1s6, a. compared to
lit In the year 1852, an increase
Of eight. f
District court cases IN samo pc
Rods were 423 and 1S2, gain OF
141 the past year.
In 191s-19 there were issued 2s2
marriage licenses by Clerk q. w.
Gilbert aud his assistants, and in
