NEW CITIZENS ARE
GIVEN LESSONS ON
LOYALTY BY JUDGE
(special Moline Servlce.l

Moline, H., Sept Eft you
happen to have come to this coun-
try from another land you have no
right to ask to be given the rights
of citizenship unless you are will
ing to trop every allegiance to the
country from which you came,
Judge y. A Larson of the circuit
court last evening told the 58 men
and women who received their nat
uraliza ton papers in Moline.
Society is so formed" said the
Judge. that each one must owe an
allegiance TO some country. Ii Is
pitiful thing to be a man or wo-
man without a country. You people
realize how serious it is TO trans
fer ones allegiance from one coun-
try to another After tonight you
have only one allegiance, and that
is to the United States. This does
not mean that you must not love
and respect the old country, but 1t
does mean that your love and re-
spect for the old country can not
conflict with your duty to the new.
Good citizenship is now your duty.

probably never be asked to die for
this country. That is the smallest
part of your new allegiance. You
are to live for the United States
and work for it There is no limit
to what you may do il you will only
work and be aggressive. AS indi-
viduals we have no right to criti-
else our country, no right to ques-
ton her motives in international
affairs. To do so is treason"
At the close of Judge Larson
address he distributed naturaliza-
ton papers to the newly made ctci-

OF
EUROPE SAVED
BY CORN GIFT
Rock Island County Farmers Con.
ributed to Project of Last
Spring.

The lives Of hundreds Of children
of the stricken areas of Poland and
Austria were saved by corn do
mated by Illinois farmers and ship
ped last spring under the direction
of the Illinois Agricultural asso-
citation, according to reports re-
eeived by the Rock Island county
farm bureau.
Farmers of Rock Island county
contributed s1,73s.3S to a total of
S16,313 cash and 1S4,5Ss bushels
colleced throughout the state. The
local donation was equal to two
carloads of corn at that time.
An outstanding feature of the
movement" says the report, was
the excellent quality OF the grain
donated. One car was declared by
the Chicago board Of trade firm
that handled the grain without
charge to be the best corn it had
received this year.
Another notable feature is that
the donors can be shown that ev-
cry busheI of their corn reached
those for whom it was intended.
Handling and incidental expenses
were absorbed by the relief asso-
citation handling the corn. Thus it
may be said that the farmers gift
was 100 per cent efficient"
One instance is cited in which
81, 635 bushels of corn were moved
from Illinois farms to the mills at
Baltimore at an expense of $3.50.

their time.
Seven other states in addition to
Illinois participated in the gift
corn campaign last spring. The
Illinois total was twice that of any
other state.

BUREAU SQUAD
WILL EXAMINE
WAR VETERANS
Cleanup Squad viii Pass on
Claims of Disabiiity-New Or
der Affects Men at Work.

Disabled ex-service men of Rock
Island county Will have the oppor-
tunlty within two or three weeks
to lay their claims for compensA-
ton and for vocational training di-
rectly before the U. S. Veterans
bureau through the medium OF a
bureau cleanup" squad, according
to G. e Geeung, assistant in the
bureau sUb-statlon at Rockford.
Mr. Geeting is spending this
week in Rock Island and Moline
arranging for the vocational train
ing of ex-service men who have
already been declared eligible, and
who for the most part have Sc
cured positions drawing govern
ment compensation in addition to
the pay received from the firms for
whom they are working.
To correct a false impression
which seems to prevail in the case
OF some war veterans who called
today to see Mr.. Geeting at Red
Cross headquarters, Mr.. Geeting
states that his mission here Is not
to pass upon the eligibility of ex-
service men His task is TO ar
range for the training of eligibles
only and supervise their training.
Concluding his interviews with
men on that list this afternoon, Mr..
Geeting will spend the balance of
this week in Rock Island and Mo-
line informing the veterans who
are now receiving compensation
from firms who have employed
them in addition to their govern
ment compensation, that by a bu-
reau order just issued, the cash
they receive from their employers
must be deposited by them in
bank, and they are not allowed to
draw upon this sum for their live
Iihood.
The money will not be lost TO
the veterans, however, because
when their period of training is
over they will be allowed to draw
the money from it's deposttary in
a lump sum.
Mr.. Geeting explained today that
this bureau ruling is a prudential
measure, and is intended to pre-
vent the veterans from arranging
their budget of living expenses on
a scale which might not be justified
by the salary they may draw after
their period of training is over.
About thirtv-five men in Rock Is
land and Moline are affected by the

LONDON'S NEWSPAPERS
HAIL JAPAN,S DECISION
Hopeful Harding Plan Will
Be World Benefit.

LONDON, July 2e.--Hearty approval Is
expressed by several London newspapers
over the Japanese Governments de-
cision to accept President Harding's in
vitation to discuss limitation OF arma-
ments and the Far Eastern question.
The Times says "Japan's best
friends knew that she would accept the
invitation. but the fact that her accept
ance now is actually on record Is a re-
lief to all who. realize the magnitude Of
the issues with which the conference
will be confronted
Speaking OF the constant temptation
politicians with narrow motives" will
find to drag subsidiary questions be-
fore the conference "in order to make
capital for themselves the Times says
every precaution must be taken to guard
against such proceedings in Washing
ton. From this viewpoint. Japans de-
sire to limit the scope of the agenda is
to be approved" the newspaper declares.
The writer also Is convinced that
Japan. In making reservations as to
what shall be discussed at the confer
ence. is not acting merely from desire
to safeguard her present interests In
the Pacific. but also under a strong i'm
pulse to reduce the burden of naval
armament The editorial concludes with
the hope that friendship. tried and
proved In alliance. may be broadcned
and dcepened in a greater union that
will be sure bulwark for peace"
The Daily Telegraph says that an
agreement between America, Great
Britain and japan that such a confer
ence Is desirable. 'is the best news
which has gladdened the world since
the guns ceased firing in Europe !.
and 1t looks as though before long we
shall not need to contemplate with
misgivings activities In the shipyards of
the United States and Japan"
The Daily Mou says II the conference
succeeds in limiting the great naval pro-
great service to all concerned, not
the least of which will be to the Japa-
nese people, on whom the enormous cost
of armamcnts Is beginning to weigh
heavily.
