vention who is not himself qualified voter and who has not actually voted in election under the laws of his State further, delegate will be received in whose selection by primary or convention, any person has taken part who is not qualified voter of the State or who actually voted in eec- ton under the laws of his State
 This rule, of course, will be of universal ap- plicaton, but it's immeiate effect will be felt almost wholly in the South. In most of the Southern States there State laws which prevent certain classes negroes and others from voting, unless they fulfill certain qualifications These laws have been con- frmed and declared constitutional by the Supreme Court of the United States.
 The decision of the Republican National Com mitee if it adopted, will be to stand squarely with the Supreme Court and prevent any man or group of from taking part in the Republican machinery unless he is a qualified voter and has actually voted under the laws of his State If man is a voter and has voted and cannot vote in the elections of his State he cannot be delegate to Republican national convention take part in giving commission 10 any one else to be delegate

Not New, But Sound.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)


 Lord Robert Cecil, in recent address, made pub simple, not new but fundamentally sound He says: l mean freedom for everybody" He would attain 1t through emancipating labor and capital from the slavery Of prejudice and antagonism There must be freedom for the worker much as free dom for the employer The greatest thing to be done in industry-and here there will be energetic dissent-if we desire to create really sound con- ditlon of industry is to recognize the right the workingman to a share in the management the industry. As his lordship it, can get on until employers and employed get into agree ment on that main principle. But his lordship, like many another philosophical economist is hay as to the modus operandi through which this desirable relationship may be brought about.
 Granted the good sense, intelligence and good feeling of the parties intimately concerned, there would seem to be insuperabe obstacles in the way of bringing labor and capital into the goal mutual harmony and interest. But here, else where in the consideration of human relationships 1t must be realized that human sefishness a basic arbiter is difficult of displacement The ideal usually is obvious, but humanity has the habit postponi ng the development of ideals the proper province of the future
 Another distinguished Englishman Lord Haldane insists that to crowd down wages discourage men, take away hope instead of keeping the gain that has been made, ruin to the nation of the future.
 Admitted. But it remains the duty of the present 10 discover system which if possible, will insure a just proportion between wages and production.

BUREAUS FIGHT DEVELOPMENT BOARD

The Washington Bureaus have begun the eX- pected attack on the Curry Development Board Bill Col E. Lester Jones the Coast and Geodetic Survey testified against the bill Tuesday, though he pro- tested against the red tape with which Alaskan gov ernment is bound Then Hugh M. Smith of the Bureau of Fisheries appeared against the measure and took occasion to defend the administration of the Alaska fisheries regulations and laws by tho Bureau He denounced Coy. Riggs criticism of the performance of the Bureau of Fisheries in Alaska
 The opposition, of-I1ie-, Washington bureaus expected matter of It for the pur- pose of getting rid their tape that the Deve- opment Board idea advanced by former Secretary Franklin K. Lane. That lis why Chairman Curry of the House Committee Territories took the mat ter up The Lane-Currye plan contempates the com plete elimination of bureaus administrators of law and governors of policies in Alaska. And who ever heard of any Washington authority being willing to give up any authority without struggle? It isn't done. "@s '" ~N a
 The Washington correspondents of the Seattle Pos-lntelligencer Delegate Sutherland will also oppose the Curry Bill that he will, at least urge that fisheries control by the Development Board be eliminated from it's provisions.
 In the meantime the Departments to b. again turning toward the lnterdepartmental Commit tee idea to take the place of the Deveopmen Board, member was allotted to this committee the other day. This committee created the suggestion of former Secretary Payne. It grew of the Development Board idea of his predicessor and was designed as a means toward getting rid ol red tape and furtherng cooperation among var ious departmens and organizations of the Executv2 branch of the Government pending Congressional tion on the subject.
 The sCurry Bill would be of immense value to Alaska. However hand in hand with it should be . a bill defining and enlarging the powers of tho Territorial Government in Alaska The measures should be considered at the same time and be put through Congress together In that way the greates danger that might follow the creation of a Deye- opment Board could be avoided The powers that rightfully belong to the people of Alaska could be given to the Territory if the two propositions were being considered at the time. and those func- tions Of government that properly Federal in lhelr nature could be reposed in the Development Boafd The greatest danger from the consideration oi the Development Board Bill separately from full territorial form of government measure is that pow CTS which ought to be exercised by the people of Alaska might be vested in the Development Board II that should be done there might be great deal or dlHlculty in procuring them for the people,

THE PRESIDENT AND THE SALVATION
 ARMY.

President Harding proved his enthusiastic ap- proval of the Salvation Army when he gave 5000 toward the erection of building for the organization at his home Of Marion, Ohio. The Salvation Army, object of derision three or four decades ago, has the love and confidence of the world through its work to people from themselves and from sin and the temptations of the world
 The Salvation Army is not only of the world $ greatest religious organizations, but it's is inspiring complication of the wisdom of individual sm. It individuals. Accepting conditions as they it after the individual and teaches him to make the most of conditions which surround him and to make the most of himself.

THE OBVIOUS REMEDY.

The suggestion of Gov. Riggs, in his telegram to Secretary Fall, the provision of the Jones Act which prevents Canadian steamships from carrying nlerchandse from American points, even where the shipment may be broken by coming through foreign port be set aside pehding settlement of the marine engineers and frenlens strike, is the natural and obvious iremedy for the situation that obtains in Alaska. Unless something is done quickly to remedy the situation only will business and development this Territory suffer very severely but there will be danger of hardship and suffering account of lack of food supplies Let hope the Canadian lines may be allowed to relieve the situation

REPUBLICANS PLAN REORGANIZATION
 IN SOUTH =

The Republican National Committee is giving very serious reconsideration reorganization of the Republican Party in the Southern States It s proposed and 1t is said President Harding emphat- caily favors the proposition, that hereafter only thosa citizens whp are legally qualified in the South VIII De permitted to vote in Republican primaries This already is the rule with the Democratic Party in the South. If the Republicans should take this action II would disqualify as voters in Republican primaries thousands of colored citizens have been disqualified as electors by the Grandfathers Clause fn Southern Constitutions.
 Those who are urging this proposal say the result Of its adoption would mean that the Republican Party of the South, like the Democratic would be lead by white men in each Of the Southern States. that in most of them. the white in Republican pr maries would outnumber the colored voters there
 The step which will bring this about and which is expected to be taken will be the adoption of rule of the Republican National Committee to the effect that delegate will be received any national con

 Abou Ben Blackstone was wise and good Caliph.
 Hafiz, the Chauffeur had pleaded guilty of having driven his auto when he was intoxicated. thereby ter rorizing and endangering many of the populace.
 Abou Ben Blackstone ordered that Sadi was ordered to give Hafiz a close wine until Sadi was intoxicated. Then he ordered that Hafiz, the Chauffeur, be bound with strong cords into the barber chair of Sadi, the Barber. Then, staggering and seeing two men in the chair where there was but one, Sadi was ordered to give Hafiz a close shave, thrice over
 Today Hafiz has but one ear and no nose, and his face resembles the Prayer Rug of Mahomet But he nc longer looks at wine when he is driving his auto.

Seven Reasons Why
You Should Help
Local Work

1 Over 800 ex-service men live in Augusta
and in towns where it has branches.
2 Over 200 Augusta men have some degree
of disability as result of their military
service.
3 81 Augusta men are still in hospitals or
under medical treatment at home, and
frequently need the services that only the
Chapter can give.
Over 100 unsettled claims for compensa-
ton and vocational training must be fol-
lowed up through the Government de-
partments.
An average of 200 men month call at
the Chapter Office for advice and as
sistance which only the Red Cross is
equipped to give.
6 It was necessary, during the past year, to
give financial assistance to 81 men,
amounting to $2536.7O.
z The service rendered these men is cont
munity responsibility. The renewal of
your dollar membership and your con-
tribution means that you are assuming
your share of that responsibility.
