ned to be signed in Paris tomorrow.

tomorrow to aftix his signature to the
treaty. Hostilities have already been
ordered stepped by both sides.
The evacuation of Cilicia by the
French, which is the most important
of the treaty. is made possible by
Turkish acceptance of the London pro-
posal for the protection of minorities
and by the action of the Nationalist
assembly in Angora in consenting to
grant high degree Of self-government

slider a near approach to autonomy
will satisfactorily dispose of the Kur-
distant problem, where there was a
demand for independence after the

Corn for the Starving

The farmers of Wayne county are taking the
lead in Indiana in the humanitarian movement
of supplying the starving people of China and
the Near East with corn. Center township set
an example for the whole state few days ago
when its farmers contributed an entire carload
and its citizens engaged in exercises to COM
memorate the event.
Other townships are following fast, so that
Wayne county's contributions will be far in ex-
cess of the quota. This is the right spirit to
show. This county always has responded nobly
to a call for aid, and the Wayne County Farm
Bureau acted with commendable dispatch in en-
listing its members in the enterprise.
The wealth of a community is not measured
entirely in what it possesses, but in its DISPOSE
ton to share it with the starving and the needy
The spiritual endowment of every farmer who
has given to this cause is enriched by the gift.
The gratitude of hundreds whose lives will be
spared by their generosity, although it may
never be expressed to the donors personally,
nevertheless is a benediction on deed we'll per-
formed.
The tragic suffering of these people, we hope,
is being adequately met by the warn-hearted
generosity of the farmers of this country, who
are taking from their cribs the food that will
transform despair into hope, and let China know
that the American farmer knows neither race
nor creed in the dispensation of his charity.
The accusation that we are living in thor
oughly materialistic age is refuted by the benevo
lence and kindness of the Wayne county farmers
and their associates elsewhere. The historian of
some future day that looks back upon this period
of American history will be forced to acknowl
edge that the gigantic campaigns for the relief
of the unfortunate people of the war devastated
countries and of stricken countries elsewhere
have no parallel in the annals of the world
America has given dollars, food and clothing on
an unheard of scale. No appeal has been re-
jected. No cry has been spurned If America
entered the war pursuant to high ideals, her rec
ord as an agent of mercy since the war exempli-
fies in a still higher degree her devotion to the
highest principles Of love and mercy. The
American farmer has taken conspicuous part
in the ministraton of help to suffering human
ity.

enterprise Il refer to the retarding, the dampen-
ing effect of this whole tax business on the am
billions and efforts of the men who play and

If congress will resolutely face the issue and,
irrespective of other considerations decide to
duce federal taxes, the country will respond
favorably to the action and industry and trade
will again prosper. Congress need fear no criti-
cism from the people if reduced taxation gives
it less money to spend for appropriations. The
