DISARMAMENT
FAVORED BY EX-
Gov. BRUMBAUCH
Gives Strong Address at
Chautauqua In
Newport

A staunch advocate of disarm
ent as a solution of Tho
worlds greatest problem. Martin
G. Brumbaugh, EX-Gov. of Penn
sylvania, was the principal speake'
at the afternoon session of Chau-
tauqua at Newport Wednesday
He took for his theme, Current
! Concerns of the Republic" "Tho
sooner this country leads in a
movement for disarment on land
and sea, the better it will be fol-
America and the world" he said.
In the course of his remarks, he
touched upon the unusual post-bel-
lum difficulties that now confront
the American people, every war
has left its great problems. And
! you can no more settle peace prob
lens by inaction than you a set
tie wal problems bv inaction. Yet
we are inclined to take the attitude
that, the war having been won,
there remains for US no further
responsibility. We are the best
forgetters in the world.
Five million people are idle in
the United States today, asserted
the speaker. This includes only
those who would work if they
could secure work, not those who
would not work anyway. 1t is a
serious situation. 1t shows that
America had not gone back to
work since the war, and that today
we are but IS per cent as efficient
as we were in 1914.
Gas a nation we are loafing on
the job" asserted Ex-Governor
Brumbaugh. We are finding indi-
cations Of it everywhere. Every
straw that was new this season,
was made outside of America.
Great Britain had sold the entire
American straw hat market before
America woke up. Great Britain
also had control of the coal market
in Argentine, three years in adj
vance when Americans finally got
around to try for this market.

industrious and frugal, and Amer
lea has been neither since the war.
"Thoug hive have finally secured
peace, we are aging the same
taxes in this country that we paid
during the war. And out Of every
dollar that we pay in taxes, 80
cents Of it is used for war pur-
poses. One senator placed it high
as 90 cents, declaring that another
six cents on the dollar really goes
for purposes of war, though vetoed
under the peace program to fool
the people.
"The huge wal debt is largely
responsible for the high cost of
living. As its debts increased,
the United States found it mo-e
difficult to borrow, thus a higher
interest rate. High wages to NUM-

lowing the signing of the armistice.

taking their leisure, while their
food literally rotted in the SOIL" he
declared. That's what is the mat
ter with the American people to-
day. And when a people enter
upon a period of extravaganza,
they enter upon d period of moral
decay. VIZ must put aside this
period of high living and low think
ing, and come to a period Of plain
living and high thinking"
To provide opportunity for edu-
cational, spiritual, and physical up
lift during the leisure hours of the
workers, America has, thus far,
done little. We must begin to leg
islate for the leisure of our people,
maintained the speaker. He spoke

The speaker closed with a note

spite of all our Weaknesses, we
must keep in mind that this is the
finest, fairest country that God
ever carved out of his love for the

For twenty hours this food is
backbone reason you like
it-another reason why it
digests so easily.

One of the important things in connection with
any cereal food is to have it thoroughly baked or
cooked. For baking or cooking changes the starch
of the grains.
Grape-Nuts is the longest baked Of all cereal foods.
1t is scientifically baked at carefully regulated tenn
peratures for 20 hours. This is one of the reasons
why Grape-Nuts digests SO easily; why it agrees
with many people who cannot take any other form
of cereal without producing fermentation.
A goodly part Of Grape-Nuts is converted into
dextrose, ready to be Immediately assmilated by
the system, and yield strength and energy. A
further portion has partially undergone this change,
while there remains sufficient unchanged cereal to
strengthen the digestive organs. 1t is then in a
condition to meet the various requirements Of the
digestive system.
If you want to cat a most strengthening and nour-
ishing food, and one that will digest more readily, go
to your grocer today and get & package OF Grape
Nuts. Eat it with stewed fruit Or as q cereal with
milk or cream; or make it into an appetizlag pudding.
Every member of the family will enjoy its dell
cious flavor and wholesorucceSs.

EUCALYPTUS SUGGESTED
AS PROFITABLE TREE TO
PLANT In THIS STATE

Miami, April 11.-Criticism of the
Australian pines at Miami Beach has
brought the suggestion from Cali
,oTnlan here that the eucalyptus in
stead of the pine be set out as a road
shade tree. He declares the euca-
lyptus to be not only an excellent
ihade tree but a tree that will pro-
duce valuable timber. One argument
advanced in its favor as a shade tree
IS the statement that mosquitoes will
not take refuge in its foliage In dis
;ussing the economic value of the
eucalyptus. the Californian said:
Hard, fine grained. durable. wood
usually grows slowly A most re-
marka BILE exception is the eucalyptus,
and this gives the tree it's great
value. Ii is said that the eucalyptus
grows five times as rapidly as any
other tree. Seedlings have been OBJ
'erved to make an average growth OF
Tx inches a day, and one tree at
-ained height of 125 feet and dia.
neter of SO feet in nine years.
The eucalyptus will not thrive
there there are frosts, but in the
south it promises to go q long way
toward filling the place once occupied
" other hardwoods which have been
greatly reduced by the demands fol
r'."' IRE and cooperage stock"
Willis B. Powell, now of Lake coun
", while secretary of the Tampa
Board of Trade ten years ago, first
advocated the planting of the euca-
lypus in Florida, for Commercial pur-
poses. There never was an organized
movement to carry out Mr. Powell's
suggestion but persons here who are
familiar with his ideas declare thai
had several thousand eucalyptus trees
been set out in South Florida ten
years ago they already would have
lumber

]. l. BRYANT RECEIVES
WOUNDS FROM NEIGHBOR

The outbreak of trouble between
wo middle aged men hitherto regard
ed as peaceable citizens resulted in a
cutting scrape this morning between
ten and ten-thirty, ]. L. Bryant being
the victim and A. V. Watson the al
legged assailant.
Mr. Bryant has two cuts on his face,
one above the left eye and . the ether
along the left cheek running frCm
the mouth well back toward the ear,
He is unable to talk, but is resting

ed as serious.
Mr. Bryant owns and operates 4
grocery store at 500 \. Florida Ave,
and Mr.. Watson is the owner of con-
siderable property in that neighb0r-
hood. Both men are we'll known.
The story told by Mr.. Watson to the

walking along the sidewalk and shat
rs he approached Mr. Bryant the lat
ter ordered him not to pass his ace
of business and struck him with a
piece of iron telling him to the ground
and that he had 10 resort 10 the cut
ing in order to escape from the

Neighbors. who did not, however,
witness the trouble this morning, say
that the two men quarre'led violent
y a few days ago. knowledge of pre-
vious trouble between the two men
was disclaimed by members Of Mr.

lates that he and his father were
standing in front of the store, twelve
to fifteen feet apart, when NJ. Wat
son approached carrying an cnen

was no quarrel, not even, so far as lie
heard an exchange of words. He
saw Mr. Watson make a lunge at Mr..
