insist that the allied governments fur
nish that huge sum of money at once
as it would seriously interfere with
their work of reconstruction after the
war. Congress agreed with the Secre-
tary, and no demand was made for the
interest.
"But the Secretary has tried to in
duce the allies to exchange the prom
issory notes for bonds somewhat like
the Liberty Bonds with which you are
both familiar; in fact. there is pro-
vision in the notes that the exchange
will be made whenever the Secretary
shall request it. but for some reason
or other the allies do not want to do
it. They seem to have the idea-and
it has been publicly expressed in Eng
land-that the loans they have receiv-
ed from the United States are not
really debt at all, but should be
considered a gift from us as part of
our share in winning the war. They
appear to feel that the issue of bonds
in definite Acknowledgement of that
loan would fix the debt upon them and
they could not shake it off.
THE saving of that huge sum of So
500.000,000 TO the people of the Unit
ed States by securing from the allies
actual bonds in that amount, and the
collection of the back interest on that
debt and the interest that will come
due in the future, is one of the big
tasks that awaits President Harding
when he takes control of the admins
tration on the 4th of next March. His
success will mean the reduction of
Oilr fay fonrdan ahOnf ODa-aiobfb and
pave the way for the payment of al
most half of our national debt out of
foreign treasures.
Now. run along to bed, kiddies, and
just remember that it is "a mighty for
tunate thing for the United States
that we are soon to have President
whose first concern will be for the
welfare of his country. and who will
not seek every opportunity to sacrifice
its wealth for the benefit of Europe"

PeptO-Mangan Makes Rich
Red Blood

When you first feel a tired, all-gone
feeling and look pale, your blood is
losing in quality. Weak, impoverished
blood has no power to fight disease.
1t takes red blood to keep you well.
If you keep your blood in good con-
dition it will fight off disease. You will
not be such an easy prey to long and
expensive sicknesses. With thin blood
you take chances every day.
There's no need doing that. You
can take Pepto-Mangan and build up
rich, red blood. With red blood you are
able to win in the fight against pre-
vailing diseases. Try Pepto-Mangan.
1t comes in tablet or liquid form. Take
either kind. The tablet has the same
medicinal value as the liquid. But be
sure you get the genuine Pepto-Mangan.
Ask for "Gude's" and be sure that the
name, "Gude's Pepto-Mangan," is on the
package. AdverfiSemeHf

DEBAUCHING THE CHILD MIND

WASHINGTON - From variou!
sources protests are being made con
cerning the character of a publica
tion known as Current Events anC
used for educational purposes in many
public schools" declares the Republi-
can Publicity Association, through its
President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr
Fan inspection of almost any issue
will show many indications that the
publication is not entirely fair in pre-
senting facts, but is coloring its ut
terances in support of the League of
Nations scheme and is friendly to
the Wilson Administration.
''In the issue for November 10, for
Instance, the first column on the first
page is devoted to quotations from a
Paris newspaper presenting argu-
ments in favor of the United States
entering the League. On the second
page there is defense of that por-
tion of the Peace Treaty which gives
Shantung to Japan. On page three
there are several paragraphs present
ing the League question in the most
favorable light from the standpoint or
those who favor the United States be-
coming a member. Among other
things this issue of Current Events
says:
MANY Democratic Senators be-
lieve the President will not resub-
NIT the Treaty or do anything what
ever to relieve the Republican Sen
atnrs and Mr. lie riding CT thei;, their con- con-
plete responsibility for its fate
This is practically an assumption
that the Republican Senators and Mr..
Harding are solely responsible for
the defeat of the Peace Treaty. The |
fact is that Republicans notified Pres
1dent Wilson in advance that they |
were opposed to the inclusion of the /
League scheme in the Peace Treaty, |
and President Wilson assumed re-
sponsibility for the fate of the Treaty |
when he defied the advice of the SEN
ators had given him. Moreover, after
the Treaty had been submitted and
thoroughly discussed, the Republicans
In the Senate, including Mr.. Harding,
proposed certain reservations and
then voted for the Treaty with the lin
ttations proposed. The Treaty with
was defeated under In
Btructions from President Wilson, who
must bear responsibility for that ac-
tion. 1t is apparent, therefore, that
complete responsibility for the fate
VI the Treaty does not rest upon the
Senators and Mr.. Har-
ling.
S"Other instances might be cited of
N effort in Current Events to create
Dentiment in favor of the League Cow
lmant and also to defend the Wilson
administration. There is also a graf .
sltous slap at Members of Congress

A "CLOSED SHOP DRIyEY

That is an impressive and, we doub
not, timely warning which Genera
Atterbury, of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, has recently given, of an i'm
pending drive for the CLOSED shop
for all railroad employees Throughout
the nation, and the adoption of th'
Plumb Plan" and Soviet control. Gen
eral Atterbury is the vice-president il
charge of operations, and is particu-
larly we'll qualified to know and tC
tell what is going on in the army OF
employees.
His warning is the more weighty be-
cause neither he nor his company is
given to rash or exaggerated state
ments.
Nor are we inclined to discount it,
as some affect to do. as a mere man
of straw, set up as counterfoil to the
pretence of the labor unions that cap
italists and employers are planning a
nation wide drive for the open shop"
| 1t is indeed not altogether a pretence
that there is arising a movement for
the open shop. There is such a move
ment, which we rather expect to see
attain large proportions, but far from
being a mere device of capitalists and
employers, it is being promoted by
multitudes of free and self-respecting
American workingmen, and by a large
part of the general public.
However, for every indication of an
open shop movement there are two
still more positive indications of
drive for the closed shop.
These are seen in the NUMEROUS
strikes which have taken place and
are now in progress to attain that
monopolistic and un-American end. A
notable example is seen in the Will
hanson miners strike in West Vir-
ginia, which has plunged that State |
into something like civil war, with |
not only State but also Federal troops !
called in to check lawlessness. 1t has
been in progress for about six months, |
in which time dozens of men have
been killed and hundreds have been
The loss in production of
coal has been 100000 tons, the loss
to the men in wages has been $780,
900, the loss to the operators has been
SIS, 100000, the loss to the railroads
has been $15.000,000, and the cost to
the State and National Governments
has been 100000. And this strike
was started solely for the purpose of
adoption of the closed
shop system, in which no man who
was not a member of a union would
De permitted to work.
1t would be regrettable to see an
industry disturbing drive for either
he closed or the open shop. 1t is quite
ertain that few thing could more af-
ront the American people and alien
tie their sympathies, if not actually
rray their aggressive hostility against
/, then a general strike to enforce the
losed shop.
The American people believe in the
light of workinmen to organize into
mons, and they also believe in their
quail right to stay out of unions; and
hey hold that unionists and non-un-
onists have equal rights to work and
, earn honest livings. They believe
in an open shop and
quality of opportunity, to unionists
nd non-unionists alike, and their
their influence, and if need
e their power, will be given to that
de, if ever a general controversy ov-
: it occurs.

Nash Trucks
Protected by Nash Stability

When you buy truck, you depend upon
the permanency of its makers to
maintain the value of your investment
Only company that endures can make
good its guarantee, render efficient service,
and protect the quality of its product.
The Nash Motors Company is permanently
in the truck business. Its financial
resources are second to none. Its one
hundred and one acre factory at Kenosha
represents millions of dollars permanently
invested. 1t has proved its ability to
build high grade trucks of more than
ordinary worth.
As distributor of Nash products, we were
selected because we were as strong in the local
field as the factory is in the national field.
No Nash Truck will ever be without
home. Service throughout its entire years
of use will always be prompt, intelligent,
and efficient.

CURRENT OUTLETS
ADD TO COMFORT

Getting maximum service out OF
electricity in the home and the most
comfort from electrical appliances
will depend entirely upon having suf-
ficient service outlets, so the useful
appliances may be easily and quick
ly connected when needed.
II is a nuisance to have to climb
onto a chair and unscrew a lamp from
q fixture every time one wishes 10
make connection for current. There
should be facilities provided for the
easy operation OF all appliances inde-
pendent OF the lighting system.
One may be the proud possessor or
a brand-new electric cleaner that has
high suction and q motive-driven
brush: or a new electric cooker, or a
handsome percolator that promises
perfect coffee, buff there Is no
convenient place to connect the ap-
pliances, they lose their effectiveness
and the housewife loses interest In
them.
Convenient service outlets, provide
handy places to plug in" appliances
without disturbing the lighting sys-
TEN. They do away with dangling
cords that are so unsightly and al
ways In the way. A liberal supply
OF wall, Dashboard, and floor outlets
in the home enables one to get the
most satisfactory service from labor
saving appliances.
A small wheeled table equipped
with a plug cluster. screwed on the
under side OF the upper tray is a great
convenience In the preparation OF =
meal at the main table. The small
table holds the appliances that may
be needed at breakfast, the perco-
lator, toaster, or the grill
Thus the pretty art table cookery
may be practiced by the dainty host
ess, who saves many steps from kitch-
en- to dining room, and the constant
attendance of a maid. The food can
be served hot and appetizing. and

-. A good workman is worthy of his hire An
electrician is generally paid what he earns. Some
earn $500 day, some $500. The quality of
their work shows plainly why there is diff
ference in their pay.
Then, too, $500 man may do $500 work
if hurried too much.
If an inexperienced contractor figures his
labor cost too low-as is often the case-he has
one or two alternatives: He may employ cheap
workmen or he may attempt to rush good work
men. In either case the work must suffer. You
are the loser.
Again we say, employ an established and re-
liable electrical contractor, one who under
stands from long experience how to estimate
costs of labor and material. He will save you
money in the end.
