A LESSON To LAMBERTVILLE
Patriotism Shown by Other Com
munlties


munities
Over in the Willow Grove, Pa, com
munity there is an enthusiastic cam
paign under way Just now that should
be an inspiration to Lambertville. The
Willow Grove community embraces
Abingdon, Hatboro, Amber, Bryn
Athyn, Bethares, Horsham, Dresher-
town, Jarrettown, Neshaminy, Roslyn,
Warrington and Cresmont.
After the boys came home from the
war in these towns, each Of them
planned to erect some kind of
memorial. A statue or column or
something Of like nature was consid-
cred, and finally dismissed as made
quate for the purpose they wished to
commemorate.
After careful consideration a move
was started under the direction Of
William E. Cooper to organize all
these towns so that they could erect
a real memorial that would be a credit
not only to the several towns, but to
the State Of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Cooper has. in the form Of a
committee, some Of the most progress
sive spirits Of the combined commu-
nifty. They are Arthur Shipton, treas
urer; W. A. Founders, secretary; j.
Dyre Meyer, r. J. Walther, John
Schulz, Rev f. j. Cu1ran, W. L. Kent
ner, Cornelius Corson, Joseph Lenning,
DR.. Chas. F. Cornelius and George
Fritz.
The entire district has been divided
into sections, with a captain and .
team in charge Of each section. to
solicit subscriptions. Already $685.
600 has been subscribed.
Only $4,000 remains to be coll
lected. This was reported at a COM
bined meeting last week at the Davis
vile School House. The subscriptions
are secured by Shares Z 800 Of these
shares have been issued and are rated
at ten dollars each Each subscriber
is presented with a handsomely en-
graved honor certificate telling the
number of shares he has taken.
The 5000 is to be used to erect
a memorial building containing a large
auditorium, ample quarters for the
American Legion posts Of the several
communities and several lodge rooms
It is expected the Red Cross VIII also
have quarters in the building There
is to be a large gymnasium in the
basement.
The people Of Lambertville are
capable and able to do as much in
proportion for its eX-seryice men and
charitable organizations as the Willow
Grove section The people of Lamb
ertville have never been known to
deny to give for those things that are
worthy. That is why so many charity
drives are carried on hprp-thn nOVprs

SIMPLICITY

Some say,
In disdain:
Hes simple
Like a child"
And pity himl
Poor fools!
Fools who use disdain
To pity him
Who in this world
Of hollow sham,
And cheap pretense,
Fears not simplicity!
Poor foolsl
Whose scatter brains"
Like five peas
In withered pod
Rattle and rattle
Whose souls
Race brokenly,
Like an engine
Out of "time"
Loosely knocking
Pounding,
In weak futility!
Hes simple"
$50 they say
All, what a tribute!
To know
The sweet, deep
Freedom of simplicity
The unutterable blessedness
Of the heart of a child!

DICTIONARIES ASKED TO EIGHT
GERMAN PROPAGANDA

The National Headquarters of the
American Legion has issued the fol-
lowing bulletin asking cooperation
from all legion members:
There has come to the attention
of the National Headquarters inform
alton indicating a move for nation
wide revival of German propaganda
activities in the United States, which
are the result of a carefully directed
national campaign, by:
First, the disruption of the accord
which exists between the United
States and our Allies with particular
reference to France and Great Britain,
by the turning of American popular
sentiments against the governments
of those countries, and
Second, the methodical creation of
a powerful national political machine
by the amalgamation of the disloyaI
elements of our population and their
elevation to a place of power IN
American affairs by the invisible in
fuence of this organized minority"
One of the first national manifesto
tons of this activity will probably
take the form of a series of mass
meetings thruout the country, osten-
sibly in protest against the occupa-
ton of the Rhine by French negro
troops from Africa. The alleged pres
ence of French Colonials is to be used
as a NATIVE to turn American senti-
ment against France.
1t has been planned to hold a series
of such meetings in New York, Gin
cinnati, Philadelphia, Chicago, Mil
waukee, Cleveland, Omaha and other
cities. In all these cities and in many
others there are committees and
groups which aspire to the nucleus
of the organization, which propaganda
is working in the interest of Ger
many.

The dead line" FOR payment of
American Legion dues has been fixed
for February rs. The names of mem
bers who fail to pay on or before that
date will be stricken from the sub
scription lists of the American Legion
Weekly.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1921-02-25

Already the poisonous head of this
serpent has reared itself to public
view. On February Is, Admiral
Won Tirpitz, German naval authority
(the self same blood-sucking Hun who
commanded the submarines that sunk
defenceless ships bearing women and
children, said in a hypocritical lie
Regardless of England's treaty with
Japan and the United States they win
do as they have done for centuries
ruin other nations and elevate them
selves lord of the world"
This is propaganda to stir up sus-
picion in American minds. If Ger
many can get the United States fight
ing England and Japan, then she will
be able to squirm out of her obliga-
tons to the rest of the world. Ger
many knows that as long as the Allies
are united she will be made to behave.
But if she can create discomfort and
suspicion between us she will continue
her contemplate policies.
1t is up to American Legion men
who whipped Germany to see that
Germany stays whipped. This can be
done by stamping as sdamnable lies
such propaganda by. German war
lords.

ACCEPTED "IN PRINCIPLE
ONLY" is VIEW IN PARIS

Paris, Dec. ia dispatch from
London to the semi-official Hayas
agency Monday said that Premier
BRAND had informed Ambassador Har-
vey in London that France accepted
Secretary Hughes proposals concern
ing capital ship tonnage as follows:
United States 5; England 8; Japan
3; France 10; Italy 1.68.
The Interpretation put upon Premier
Brands interview with Ambassador
Harvey in official circles here was
that Frances acceptance of the Amer
lean view as to the naval tonnage was
an acceptance in principle only SO
far as capital ships were concerned,
and that it did not alter the French
insistence upon adequate allowances OF
submarines and cruisers.
Minister of Marine Guitsau was
quoted as saying that Premier BRAND
since reaching London had expressed
a desire that France adopt the Ameri-
can views concerning the limitation of
capital ship tonnage, but that no figure
was laid down. ANY information on
this question" NJ. Guistsau was quot
ed as saying, would be premature and
inexact"
In official quarters it was said that
France desires to do everything she
can to hasten naval accord at Wash
ington and to contribute her share in
the sacrifice being made. She must,
however, it was said, do all in her
power to make America understand
her vital necessity for submarines and
cruisers.

Lament if a misunderstanding should
really arise between Albert Sarraut,
now head of the French delegation
here, and Premier BRAND.
NJ. Sarraut, besides being French
colonial minister, is one of the pro-
prietors Of La De Peche Of Toules, re-
puted to be the most powerful provin-
cial newspapers in France, influencing,
it is said, the actions of some 40 mem
bers of the chamber of deputies NJ.
Marraud, an assistant editor and part
owner of La DE Peche, is minister of
the interior, which has more to do
with French elections than any other
department.
Unofficial advices from London and
Paris saying France has accepted the
naval ratio proposed for her by the
American government, created some
thing of sensation in armss confer
ence circles because the development
generally was interpreted as marking
one of the longest steps yet taken
toward a naval reduction agreement.
In Critical Stage
The request of the French naval ex-
perts here for capital ship tonnage
twice as great as that provided in the
American plan had brought the nego-
tiations to a rather critical stage, and
a long and perhaps stubborn debate
had been forecast generally.
Some discussion may be necessary
it was said, to bring Italy's views into
accord with the fiye-power ratio pro-
posal, but no prolonged negotiations on
that point are expected. The complete
American proposal for expansion of the
three-cornered agreement into a five
power treaty is reported in the Paris
unofficial dispatches as providing for
ratio of Ito for France and 1.6S for
Italy, as compared to the 55-3 already
agreed on for the United States, Great
Britain and Japan respectively. The
Italian delegation has insisted hereto
fore that their government should have
as large figure as France.
Throughout the discussions, how
ever, the Italians have shown
tendency to make every reasonable
concession in the interest of harmony.
Confusion Over Ratio
Although never made public, the
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1921-12-20

American capital ship proposal for
France and Italy is known to have been
in the shape of actual proposal tonnage
not reduced to the form of an ex-
pressed ratio. As a consequence there
was some confusion over the dis
patches from Paris quoting ratio fig
ures.
Once there is an agreement among
the five powers as to the capital ship
ratio, the next big question will relate
to submarines. In that field sharp
difference Of opinion is developing but
there is a general feeling that it will
not be permitted in any way to inter-
fere with the underlying agreement on
ratio.
In some quarters it is expected that
a plenary session of the conference will
be held as soon as there is ratio
agreement, perhaps in few days, at
which the definite five-powcr plan will
be formally announced and an oppor-
tunity will be given for public opin-
ion of views as to submarines.
Great Britain desires to present her
plea for abolition of the submarine,
while French and American naval ex-
perts are known to favor comparatively
large submarine tonnage.
May Be Done Quickly
Details of the capital ship matter, it
was said in conference circles, prob
ably could be worked out quickly with
authority provided for both France and
Italy to build 'post-Jutland" ships as
replacement for existing, but obsolete,
dreadnaughts if they 50 desired. :,
1t is not anticipated that there will
necessary any important revision Of
the ten year naval holiday plan. Nor is
it believed that the airplane carrier
allotments will cause difficulty. al
though Japan has indicated a desire
for more tonnage under this heading
than the 5-5-3 ratio plan would con-
TEMPLATE,
