Next Week

Supt. Laird and Engineer Sevison
Of the State Highvay Department
state that early nsxt week the State
will have a gang at work north OF
Rawlins on the Rawhns-Lander part
Of the Rocky Mountain Highway.
This road 10 one OF the most ne
cessary roads in this section because
of the fact that over It all the truck
ing to the OH fields north Of the city
1t was expected that this road
would be completed last summer.
but for various reasons the Highway
Department was unable to start 1t.
However, two different surveys were
made and everythink gotten in readi-
ness to start actual work this sum-
mer. .
For some weeka{ past the State
Highway Department has had a large
gang working between Encampment
and Walcott. Tha road Is almost
completed, but Q few more days work
being necessary. This road will be
q boulevard when II becomes settled
and after some traffic has gone over
It. For the entire distance it 10 al
most a. wide ~ the Lincoln High
way and has been graded up so that
it has perfect drainGge. At one
point, across Pass creek a bridge will
be constructed. When this is done
it will be possible To use the road
for almost the entire distance.
The crew that has been working
on this road will be brought to Raw
Inns just as sooR an they have com
pleted their work there. 1t Is this
crew that will be started construct.
ing the road north from here to the
oil fields.
The road from Rawhns to the oil
fields has been neglected for the
past several years although over it Is
more actual traffic than my other
| road in the county. Its construction
; will make Rawlins oven o Of
distribution point for the oil com
panies operating north Of here than
it has been in the past.
The various oil companies state
that If a good road 10 constructed tc
the north they Will . that 1t II

the graduation exercises were held

"DisArmamcnt."

armament we are treating with a
subject which at the present time Is
%effecting in some way nearly all of
the countries Of any Importance in
the world. From all these countries
there are three with whom we are
at present taking the most interest:
Great Britain. Japan and United
States. There Is considerable talk
by the peoples Of these countries,
especially In Great Britain and the
United States about a so-called naval
holiday. but before we discuss this
we will take up the problems of
disarmament In most Of the Euro
pean countries and England.
We will first take up the questions
and problems with which England
Is confronted. May we ask, "Is the
world ready for disarmament YETI"
From the following facts and statis-
tics, l will show you that the an
swer is in the negative; the world is
not ready for disarmament. In Eng
land at the present time there is
need OF a larger armed force than
there has been for many years. One
Of these needs is presented in the
Irish question. there England Is
holding rel n hundred thousand
troops to keep Ireland and she seems
determined to retain her hold or that
country and in order to do SO 1t is
necessary that she keep within hat
country a sufficiently large force of
armed men and expend an enormous
sun of money In their retention. In
India we find even more English
troops than in Ireland. In Egypt,
England Is having considerable
trouble to keep down revolt and pre-
serve government. MesopOtamia
offers a further example OF the need
of armed troops from England. So
we find that England for me-. cannot
safely disarm.
e From England we will go to
France. Here we IRE also confront
ed with several serious problems.
From the point Of view Of the
Frenchmen the army is the sole
guarantee for the vast sums owed
her by Germany In return for the de-
vastation done by the German army
during the war. II France was to
disarm at the present time. how
would she aver get the indemnity
from the Germans, rs there has
arisen a serious crisis in her govern
ment and country ~ a whole, for she
has been cApttvated by the COmmun-
list and Bolshevik forces which she
ut one time tried to force upon the
other countries Of the world. As we
have seen in the last few weeks, the
Germans we're very stubborn and
had It not been for the Allied armies
they could not have ven made them
promise to pay their debts.
Syria demands Of France some
what Of the same protection as Meso-
potamia does OF England.
The seriousness Of the affair is
shown By the way in which the
smart men Of France regard 1t. The

ODE TO A kNOCkER
There was man in this old town,
A dozen years ago. or less,
Who thought all knowledge still un-
found,
Except that which he did possess
He was against progressiveness,
In business. church and school and
State;
With high tax rates he was Obessed
And fought the live ones. morn
till late.
In spite of him things moved along
Our town and country grew apace
He finally found he didn't belong.
In such live prOgressice place.
He sold his store. his house and lot
And no one shed "a single tear,
And moved away, where we know
not.
He was forgotten in a year.

The government of japan has
announced that II will hold on to

test of the United States. Our
government wants the island as a
cable station. but so do the Japs,
and il having been awarded to
them by the League of Nations af-
ter our senate refused to enter
that league. the chances are that
we VIII have to submit or come in
to open conflict with the forty
nine nations now in the league, in
which event. the first step will be
to refuse to hold commercial re-
1ations with us and cut off our
entire foreign market.-Okemah
