THE WARRINGTON CAR WRECK
BAReACKVILLE, Nov. 4.-[Edt'
tor The West Virginian. l-The
wreck at Pine Grove Monday OF the
Warrington car leaving Fairmont
a. 500 a. M, resulted in complete
paralysis Of traction service both
ways between Pine Grove and Man
nington for half a day with incon'
venienCe and delay entailed on
scores of daily patrons OF the NJ. 2.
R. company who were forced to
seek other facilities OF conveyance
10 their work or business.
The unfortunate occurrence
raises very natural query IN the
minds Of all patrons thus affected,
which the traction officials may be
kind enough to explain. why an
II o'clock last car is not run out OF
Fairmont TO Warrington, and held
over night, iutead OF starting two
cars out Of Fa!rmont at and s.
o'clock respectively. OF mornings.
Our Barrackville community sew.
eral months ago in it's petition to-
the Public Service commission,
which by the way Is not u closed
incident, asked for an II o'clock
last car out O! Fairmont, at the
same time making the suggestion
that It could be held over night al
Warrington and become the first
car into FRtrmont the next morning,
Such an operation would not pre-
vent but II would greatly minimize
the possibility Of such tie.up of
service az that OF Monday over
twothirds OF the Warrington line
for hours, which In the present case
would not have occurred at all,
since the proposed Warrington car
would have transferred It's passen.

gers from beyond, and kept traffic

History is going to repeat itself in the future
when some white haired old grandmother will relate
to her entranccd grandchildren the details Of the
proud moment when she was kissed by General
Foch The gallant Lafayette distributed many
kisses among American children during the scenes
~ the oyauons given him when he was the popular
idol of the new America Thesc kisses hare figured
in verse and story ever since. II is eyiG"ntly ono
way to secure for the give5 sure place in. the
hearts Of the future generation.

GRAY SAMARITANS
RESCUING CHILDREN

The Young Women's Christian Asso-
Citations of the United States are keenly
interested In the movement for the re-
lief Of the 100000 starving children
Of Europe because a group of their
members, the Polish Gray SamarItans,
have been In charge Of distributing food
to children in Poland. They have been
serving under the American Relief adj
minlstration and have conducted food
kitchens and distributing stations In
all parts OF Poland outside Warsaw.
In all the relief work being done In
Europe, that Of the Polish Grays has
been unique because all the girls,
though sent from America, were either
born In Poland or are Of Polish paFen-
tage. When the need for social serv-
Ice In their country became acute
many girls Of Polish descent answered
the call Of the Young Women's Chris
tian Association for overseas service
and enlisted In the preliminary train
ing course that was given In several
cities Of the United States. From this
group thirty girls were chosen and sent
to Poland where, since 1918, they have
been caring for the children Of the
country. The distribution Of clothing
has taken them into all parts Of
Poland
They are now spending their entire
time In arranging fer the feeding Of
children this winter. Groups of them
travel to strategic centers In outlying
districts where they set up distributing
stations, receive supplies, prepare
meals, arrange for impartial distribu.
ton and train helpers to continue the
work when they are sent on to the next

The new tax bill recently enacted by
the legislature would be more accept
able to the public if it changed the
system Of operating the law. The
greatest objection to the Roberts law
was the way 1t was manipulated.
Abolish the Office Of Chief Statistician
and all his assistants that cost the
state 100000, some of the gubernatori
al candidates told Us last year, and let
the assessors of the several counties do
the work, unhampered, that they were
elected to do. We cant see how these
assessors need dictation from Nashville
from hand-picked politician, in order
that they may do their work properly,
To have his work reviewed by a compe
tent board of equalizers in Nashville is
not Objectionable to taxpayers. but it is
Objectionable to have the assessors
work directed f ON Nashville as it was
done last year,

A new kind Of insurance Is ANNOUNCED
by one / I the biggest and oldest fire
insurance companies in the world. 1t
proposes TO write policies of insurance
for farmers on their crops, insuring a.
gain It loss on the growing crops. insuring
from drowth. floods, cylones, etc. We
never heard of such insurance until we
saw the advertisement of the company
IN leading farm paper. BY taking
advantage of this kind of insurance a
farmer is guaranteed not 10 lose his la
Dor, seed and fertilizer put into the
making Of his corn. cotton, wheat etc
1t strikes as fine thing for farmers
and we believe 1t will grow into big bus
mess for insurance companies and farm
ers both.

None of Us can look with right good
feelings upon the march of Allied troops
into German territory for the purpose
Of enforcing demands for reparatiOns
upon that nation. True, the German
nation is down and out now. with her
resources depleted and her arms, army
equipment, navy, and all fighting Spar
aprhenalia gone, but the Germans are
q resourceful people, and they are fight.
ing with their backs to the wall. 1t is
not question Of fighting in battle. for
the Germans have nothing to fight with,
but It appears that they are fighting
against an inevitable end now facing
them. There seems nothing for them
but to meet the demands of the Allies.

When congress in its last hours be-
fore the end of the Wilson administra-
tion last week refused to make apprc-
priation for the completion Of the
Muscle Shoals nitrate plant 1t struck a
hard blow to the farmers of the coun-
try and particularly those Of the south
Nitrates have always been the most
expensive element Of fertilizer to buy,
mainly because IL had to be imported
from other countries. The atmosphere
above every acre of the earth 10 rich in
this element and the plant at Mufcle
Shoals offers means OF taking this nj
trogen from the air and converting it
into form that its use as fertilizer
demands. The plant was built during
the war at an enormous expense to the
government for the purpose of obtain
ing nitrogen for use in making ex-
plosives, but the war came to close
before the plant was completed and
friends of agriculture turnout the coun.
try started acampaign to have the
plant completed and its output sold to
far mers for use as fertilizers. A biz
appropriating $l0.0OO.0OO. for its com
pletion was passed by the senates and
defeated in the house in the last nom
ents of the session mentioned, by con-
gress overwhelmingly Republican. To.
day no industry of the country is firm
er in its refusal to accept its losses
than is the fertilizer industry. These
manufacturers calmly tell the public
they bought their present fertilizer
materials, nitrogen, phosphates and
potash, mainly, at high prices OF war
times and they can not now reduce
their prices because of this fact-they
refuse to shoulder their part of the de-
clines in prices Of commodities. aud
want TO sell their goods so as TO break
even or make some money. while the
farmers cotton, corn, hogs, cattle and
everything else have dropped to prewar
prices and below and the farmer was
forced to accept his cut and bis loss.
By combining In an agreement. which
no doubt exists, the fertilizer manufac-
tarers can fix their prices SO as to make
good their apparent losses and save
then selves, the farmers can not. And
by refusing to pass the bill referred to
congress gave aid to the fertilizer peo-
pie 10 fostering their unreasonable
prices under present price conditions.

metal products rs sper cent higher,
lumber and building material 146 per
