PRESIDENT Harding this week
sent a note to the big nations
suggesting that a conference be
held in Washington on disarma-
ment and related subjects. And
right heartily did the invited ma
tons signify their approval The
conference will be held in the
fall.
The burden of military expend-
itureS makes the world anxious
to embrace any scheme of relic,
and security. 1t is in this sense
that the Importance of tire pro-
posed conference cannot be eX-
aggerated. Great things will be
hoped for it.
The end to be attained will be
an agreement between nations
which maintain large armies and
navies. But no matter how it is
secured, the original Wilson plan
in effect must prevail. Read
Article 8 of the "hated" Covenant
of the League of Nations;
THE members of the League re-
cognize that the maintenance of peace
requires the reduction of national
armanents to the lowest point con-
sistent with national safety and the
enforcement by common action of
international obligations"
Mr.. Wilson's plan was for dis
armament, and it is gratifying
that President Harding is follow
owingthe lead set by x.president
Woodrow Wilson. Patriotic Amer.
leans will applaud Mr.. Harding
for his present efforts securing
that which Mr.. Wilson labored
so earnestly for.

For days preceding the Fourth,
otherwise

For days preceding the Fourth,
the New York papers carried
accounts of the mammoth lin.
dignation" parade that was to
be pulled off in that city on the
Fourth protesting against the
prohibition law. Estimates Of
the probable paraders ranged
from 100000 to half a million.
But when the parade was actual.
ly held, the greatest number they
could muster in the line Of
march was barely $4,000 and
ninety per cent of this number
were men of foreign birth. This
does not mean to imply that
New York is at heart dry" Far
from it. But the kick is not so
vehement as was the case a year
ago, and as is to be expected the
main kickers now are the foreign
element. it is a blessing to our
Tar Heel state that our foreign
population is so small.

THIS from the editorial col

of July 9th:
1T is pretty good proposition that
the town Of Rockingham is not in very
pressing need of an extra session of the
Legislature. 1t is to be judged so by the
way in which that town has gone into
the purchase of working TOOLS" as the
PosT-pIsPATcH puts it. The town has
bought LaFrance truck at an outlay of
$l2,500, a tractor for $1,660 to be used
in street work, $3.50 sweeper to keep
the streets clean and an $500 sprinkler to
keep down the dust. Rockingham al.
ways was town of enterprise"
