COUNTY HIGHWAY NOTES.

Plans for the Hackett branch road
and the oscobel-Fennimore improve
ment have been sent to Madison and
Washington for approval. The Hack
EFT branch road will be Az miles long
involving an average grade of two to
four per cent with a maximum OF six
per cent. The work will comprise
grading and culverts with stretch of
concrete over the marsh on Grant bot
tom. The relocation will make the
road to Bloomington about the same
distance as the route via Flora and
three miles shorter than the Beetown
route.
The BOScObel road will follow
Crooked creek as at present about
four miles being covered in the i'm
provement. Both jobs will be begun
as soon as official approval has been
made.
Farmers residing on the Iowa side
west of Cassville are endeavoring to
route established between Millville,
Iowa, and Cassville This will con-
meet two state trunk lines and i'm
prove travel between the states. John
Moore and others have asked the
highway departments of the two states
for action on the link.
The Burton hill Improvement is be-
ing held up by an injunction granted
Mrs Jennie Martin some tim ago. Mrs.
Martin claimed insufficient cOmpen-
sation for a route through her land
and refused to accept the county
courts appraisal. The prestnt road
going up the south hill has a grade
OF % per cent in places and is pos
itively dangerous as many cars have
trouble in making the hill. The re-
location will establish a maximum
grade of six per cent. The district
attorneys office admits that litigation
should be started to clear the matter
up as it is important to Grant county
and might involve thousands of dol
lars loss in case of an accident and
damage suit if left as at present. The
office states, however, that it has
been so harassed with requests for
prosecution of Sunday picture show
cases, etc, that it has no time for
other important county business.

selves to concerted action for de-
Tense in case either of the two coun-
tries should be attacked without
provocation, according to a summary
of the pact received here today in
official circles.
Besides provision for a defensive
alliance the agreement provides for
mutual assistance in the economic
restoration of the two countries.
Both Poland and France further
promised to act in close agreement
on all questions affecting the irinter-
nal affairs and each agreed to con-
suit the other before concluding new
agreements concerning their policies
in continental and Eastern Europe.
Arrangemet is made in the alli-
ance for determining the exact terms
of the economic features of the
agreement at later period.
Officials here who have examined
the summary of the pact are under
stood to regard it as the most init
mate alliance concluded between any
two powers since the armistice and
of such a character as to unite the
destinies of France and Poland for
long time on the European con-
tinent, both politically and ecooomi-
cally.
BY it's terms France would be eX-
pected. it was said, here, to support
the Polish claims to JJDDer SileSia
and would also be obligated to lend
support to Poland in case Of Boil
shevist attack.

Wilson's and Colby's
Names Kissed at
IN. Y. Mass Meeting

New York, Mar. 27-Demonstra-
! tons and Kisses at the mention of
Woodrow Wilson and former Secre-
tary of State Colby marked a public
debate at Carnegie Hall tonight be-
tween Senator Joseph l. France of
Maryland and Senator William H.
King of Utah, on the question of
changing the American policy to-
ward Russia.
| Further disorder occurred when the
audience believing that a vote was to
be taken at the end of the debate,
was informed that through a misun-
! derstanding this would not be done.
At adjournment many persons rush
ed upon the platform to threaten
Rabbi Joseph Silverman who declared
: that such a vote would be un-Ameri-
can in the face of the governments
stand. He charged that the meeting
was packed, and persons in the au-
dience were heard to say that social
istic papers had urged their readers
to attend in masses.
Senator King after many interrupt
tons, during which the former pres
ident's name was repeatedly Kissed
and booed, denounced many of his
hearers as being "Bolsheviks," and
recommended lessons in Americanisn
for them. Senator France advocat-
ed a change of policy including
throwing open the doors" for trade
with Russia under it's present gov
eminent. The questions during the
debate hinged on the statements of
Fro hot I,oC
raw products and concessions by
which she could pay for trade; that
the American policy has been one
of war in all dealings with Russian
armies and especially in invading the
north of Russia at Archangel.
Senator King replied that the Rus
sian gold, for the most part belong
ing to Rumania and other countries,
would not be sufficient to start even
small amount of trade even if
Americans could bring themselves to
the point of taking it, and that trade
with Russia has been impossible to
a great extent by the refusal of Com
munists to allow goods to enter.
He denied that the American poll
icy has been one of war, declaring
that the American troops were "in-
vited." A statement by Senator
France that Americas waging war
on Germany by invading Russia was
as bad as Germany,s invasion of Bel
gian" drew scathing rebuke from
Senator King.
Senator France argued that the
policy of the United States has been
unwise because un-American." The
news of the Russian revolt he said.
should have caused the liberty bell at
Philadelphia to be rung again.
The Senator asked his opponent.
Senator King, If it was not the fact
that war waged against Russia with
out the consent of congress and
whether the resumption Of trade with

is not generally known that one Of
the honors bestowed upon the Chief

States in the Union.
THE double display Of flags and
colors at the Grand Army Review in
1915 caused considerable comment, and
as a result the suggestion was made
to the President that the navy flag
might fittingly be made distinctive from
the infantry colors by the addition of
four stars-one in each corner. The
flags of an Admiral and of General
bear four stars, as sign Of command.
The President approved of the idea,
but directed that the coat-of-arms. as
