Upper SiIesia Row Threatens
Break Between France and

BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

Upper Silesia threatens to become
a wedge to split the entente alliance.
The Poles, slowing up in their insur-
gent movement, are relying on France
and have asked at least the moral sup
port of America. The British, as rep
resented by their government, are
thoroughly disguised with the Poles
and resent the attitude and actions of
the French. France practically unan-
imously stands back of the Poles and
promises to ''go it alone" if necessary.
Italy and Japan are said to side with
the British, and America will not, for
the present, mix in the imbroglio at
ALL
Premier Lloyd George probably has
been talking too much--a fault of his
which has been in evidence before.
First he told the house of commons
that Poland was in the wrong, that it
was up to the allied plebiscite forces,
which are mighty weak, to restore or
der in Upper Silesia and put the Poles
back where he thinks they belong, and
that if they could not do it, fairness
demanded that the Germans be per-
mitted to do it. He also sent to Paris
a note severely criticising the action
of the French troops in Upper Silesia
and declaring the French government
was supporting Korfanty in his rebel
lion.
Premier BRAND and the press Of
Paris responded with bitter attacks on
the course being pursued by Great
Britain, and it was declared France
never would recognize the alleged
promise made by the British to Ger
many, that she should have Upper ST.
lesia in return for acceptance of the
reparati0ns ultimatum. Though the
total plebiscite vote in the zone was
in favor of Germany, certain of the
districts voted for union with Poland,
and the French claim these should go
TO Poland in accordance with the
treaty of Versailles. In fact both
sides to the controversy assert that
that treaty must be carried out, but
apparently they interpret it different
ly. The French say order could have
been maintained easily if Great Brit
ain had not withdrawn her part of the
occupatiOnal force, and that her eX-
cuse that the troops were recdel at
home is insufficient. The opposition
press in England admits the truth Of
this.
Mr.. Lloyd George reinforced his
statements by further assertion that
he would not accept the French con-
tentions, and he spoke with biting
sarcasm of the attitude of the French
press. The editors of Paris, indeed,
are saying some very unpleasant
things about the British prime minis
ter and his government. One of them
prints an account of alleged intrigues
with Berlin concerning the utmatum,
designed to give the British complete
control of the economic situation in
Europe, and another accuses Lloyd
George of thinking he can continue to
dictate laws for the continent. He
forgets," says this editor, that the
French army is available for backing
Frances word, whereas England is
represented in Europe only by Mr..
Lloyd Georges speeches"

As matter of fact, even granting
the technical and moral correctness
Of the British position, the French
have the best of it from material
point of view. Their army numbers
more than 100000 men; that Of Pc
land is the second largest in Europe
not counting the soviet Russians-and
the efforts of France since the arms
tice to build up block of friendly
nations in central Europe has given
her the support of Czecho-Slovakia,
Jugo-Slavia, and very probably OF
Hungary and Roumana. AT this time
it seems certain that France Will en-
force by arms if necessary, abstention
by Germany from armed intervention
in Upper Silesia, and compliance by
Germany with the terms of the ulti-
matum concerning both the payment
of reparations and disarmament
France is still standing ready to oc-
cupy the Ruhr and will not ask for
much excuse to carry out that move
ment.

The Home Town Paper.

People of the United States will be
afforded an opportunity during the
week of November 7th to 18th to ex-
press in concrete form their gratitude
to those men and women, who through
sunshine and rain, prosperity and ad-
versity, persistently and consistently
sing the song of the home town. The
time long since passed when newspa-
pers, whether daily or weekly, can
subsist on the taking it for granted"
spirit of it's patrons and we'll wishers.
Costs of producing newspapers today
have not decreased in aything like
the proportion experienced in other
lines and figures quoted recently by
daily and weekly newspapers through
the country have given the public a
glimpse into the expense incidental to
conducting the home paper.
To the newspaper men and women
of each community has fallen the task
of presenting the current events of a
fast-moving world in accordance with
the modern ideas, more or less extra
VACANT, and keeping a smiling counte-
lance and a courageous heart when
others are prone to talk "hard times"
Their loyalty to the state and their
community has undergone a severe
test but they met it with optimism and
only a little reflection is required to
show how much worse conditions
might have been before the turn in
the road was reached, had they pursu-
ed a different course.
Advertisers had to keep advertising
whether they could pay promptly or
not and business had to be kept going
for the general good. The publishers
and editors did their part and the Sec
ond week in November is proclaimed
a time when those who benefited by
this policy can express it in terms of
support that will insure the future of
the small town paper, the backbone Of
every community that has the SEM
blance of pride in itself and it's neigh
bors.-Sioux City Argus-Leader.

WHAT NEXT IN ELECTRICITY?

Away back in the nineties, Mark
Twain wrote an interesting piece about
mental telegraphy-some folks cali it
"telepathy." Mark recited instances
where he had wanted very much TO
hear from this or that person, and
had had it on his mind strongly, and
he had even sat down and written to
them. In each example the letter
"crossed" in the mails another from
the individual in mind.
Few of US but have had letters
"~cross" in the mails, both written On
the same subject. And how frequent
ly have each one of us been surprised
to find people about whom we were
talking, suddenly appear on the scene,
causing US to remark: "Speak of
angels and you'll hear their Wings"
or, "Speak of the devil" etc. And
then there is the constant recurring
duplication of thought and ideas which
brings out the saying: "Great minds
travel in the same direction"
Few of us think these are as mental
te%legraphy," but are they not?
Mark Twain wrote in the days when
common telegraphy of messages was
by wire. He was convinced that men,
tai telegraphy was not cla%irvoyance
or spiritism, but the action of some
unknown quality of electricity. Since
that time wireless telegraphy has be-
come common. Wireless telephony is
beginning to become common. We
know that the sounds are carried
through the air by waves of electricity
which wash against poles and stand
pipes to which receivers are attached.
The world is making amazing strides
in the science of electricity. What
will it yield next? Will it be the
discovery of a quality or element in
electricity that, with the help of ap-
paratus, will wash waves of thought
from one brain to another?

"RUY SOMETHING MADE OF
COPPER"

Scattering rays of light are begin
ming to penetrate the cloud that has
enveloped the western mining industry
for some months. Silver is selling at
II So cents an ounce, an increase of
10 cents wei the low mark of this
year, and indications are that it will
go higher.
Copper seems to have touched bot
tom and the price has strengthened to
around 1914 cents a pound. This,
however, is still under the average
selling price for the ten-year period
preceding the war, of IA cents a
pound.
Inferior substitutes were used dur
ing the wal and gained a strong hold
on the market. The merits on the
majority of substitutes cannot be COM
pared with copper.
The copper industry must win back
the pre-war popularity of the red
metal, which is not an impossible task.
surplus COppCl SOoSh L oio"'y "Ao
appearing and some day the country is
going to wake up and find that copper
has returned to it's place in the indus
trial world.
To help this movement along and
enable mines which are now idle to
again operate and employ thousands
of workmen, every citizen in this
country should buy something made
of copper. He should do this, not
merely to help the copper producers,
but to benefit himself by getting a
superior article and at the same time
bentfit the country by opening the
channels for tens of thousands Of
workmen.
"Buy something made of copper"
should be a national slogan for the
next six months.

SUMMER FALLOW MEETINGS

So much has been said lately about
summer fallow and summer tillage
that it is high time that every one
should have IN opportunity to hear
the true facts.
There are some different ideas about
summer following and to correct any
false ideas that may be circulating
about, arrangements have been made
for meetings and best speakers in
Montana have been secured. The
speakers are Chester Davis, state
commissioner of agriculture and A.
j.. Ogaard, extension agronomist for
Montana. These men have made the
subject a study and have years of Elk
pertinent station results to base their
arguments on.
Not a farmer or business mar in
Valley county can afford to miss hear
ing these men on so vital a subject
to the dry land farmers of Valley
county.
The speakers are scheduled as fol-
lows: Monday, October 81, Hinsdale;
Tuesday, November 1, Nashua opera
house; Tuesday evening, court house,
Glasgow; Wednesday, November 2,
Opheim.
To get the best and most authentic
and reliable information on summer
fallow and dry land cropping system,
attend the meetings outlined above
by the Farm Bureau Of Valley county.

BELL RINGERS PLEASE

Glasgow's Lyceum course is in full
swing. Last Wednesday evening the
Bell Ringing and Singing Male Quar-

delightful concert and the boys rams
and sang in splendid manner
There was a good variety of Sc
lections, including solos, readings and
planologues as we'll as quartet num-
bers with and without the bells. The
Jolly Blacksmith from I'll Travatore"
was the most popular selection of the
evening, although their singing of
Onward Christian Soldiers with ac-
compartment Of bells was a real de-
light. Lead Kindly Light was also
beautifully rendered. It was altogeth-
er a delightful evening.
The quartet was introduced by J.
W. Wedum who also announced the
next number on the course. Pith

opher, will be here about the first of
the year. He is a famous cartoonist,

FOUND IN OUR
EXCHANGES
What is Your Experience?

Last year, says the Bell Telephone
company, more than eleven thousand
million conversations were held over
it's lines, and each of them with an
order given to a telephone employe.
In other lines of business orders are
usually written. These orders were
necessarily spoken, consequently more
subject to mistake. Some Of them
were given in loud voices, some In
murmurs, some clearly stated, and
others rapidly fired. Yet more than
ninety-nine per cent of all such orders
were correctly received and executed.
Although this sounds incredible, the
company vouches for the figures. In
what other business except possibly
in the army or navy could so high a
percentage of accurate response to
orders be found?
This is something to think about
when an angry patron of the telephone
feels like 'bawling out" the company
for getting a number wrong.-Mis-
soulian.

FARM LECTURER TO MAKE
TOUR OF VALLEY COUNTY

In an attempt to iron out the mis-
understandings that have so many
years centered around dry farm meth
DDS, especially in the nature of sum-
mer tillage the Montana State College
is sending into Valley county early in
the month a speaker who will outline
recommendations on the subjects.
1t will be the most important talk
made recently in this county by col
lege men on dry farm policies of the
institution. The talk will include rec
concentrations that come as the re-
suit of many years of careful expert
ment and investigation in dry land
areas.
The first lectures in this state will
be held in Valley county, beginning at
Hinsdale on October 80. Other meet
ings that have been scheduled are at
Nashua for November 1 and at OPP
helm for November 2.
