1921 winter wheat yield promises
only 55S,000, goo bushels, whereas the
government estimate May first was
100000 bushels, Buying based
largely on the new estimate carried the
market this afternoon TO the highest
price of the day. Profit taking was
lively, and a sharp reaction was in
progress at the last, Weakness which
prevailed during the morning was as
cribed mainly to excellent weather
throughout much of the winter crop
belt, and to word that the harvest had
commenced in southern Kansas and
Missouri. Bears contended that the
June government crop report due to-
morrow would not confirm the low pri-

PROHIBITION.

A report on prohibition in the
United States, made recently to the
British House of Commons by two of
its members who have been studying
the situation in this country, contains
these conclusions:
"The suppression of the saloon is
an achievement for which the Amer
lean people cannot be too thankful.
Prohibition, however, as we in this
country had been led to believe pre-
vailed in the United States, does not
exist"
If the public knew what localities
were visited by the British investi
gators, they would be in better posi-
ton to form an opinion as to the ac-
curacy of their report. All of US
know that prohibition is much more
rigidly enforced in some sections of
this country than in other sections
While claiming that absolute pro-
hibition does not exist, the Britishers
say the suppression of the saloon is
a great benefit.
Closing the saloons meant a reduc-
ton of liquor sales throughout the
country of at least rs per cent. This
means that prohibition has been at
least three-quarters vindicated.
The prohibition laws will be better
enforced as time goes on. The vol
ume of liquor sales is steadily grow
ing less. Boys growing into man.
hood these days are not forming the
liquor habit as formerly. The situa-
ton is getting better right along.
And we must not lose sight of the
fact that prohibition can be made air.

During the course of those nego-
tiations it has been easy to raise the
cry that the United States, because
it was insisting upon its own rights,
was abandoning Europe and the rest
of the world; that it was retiring
into a barren nationalism, and that
it was forgetting its responsibilities
in the false security of a splendid
isolation which would be neither
splendid nor effectively isolated. The
gathering of the nations in Washing
ton is an efiectual refutation of those
criticisms. We have not forgotten
that we are world power, and that
we shall have to live in the world
as one. We are not retiring into
fictitious isolation. We have merely
been separating the one thing from
the other. We have set aside the
question arising from the war, which
is past, and attacked them indepen-
IDENTIFY. We have also set aside the
questions which will arise from the
peace, which is in the future, and are
proposing to do our full part in solv-
ing them in their proper place, on
the basis of an enlightened national
ism, which is the only basis as yet
possible in this world.

FlatwOOds School.

On Saturday, November 18th, an
entertainment was given at the Flat
woods school building. The enter
tainment was very enjoyable. the
pupils and patrons of the school who
took part doing their best to please.
One of the purposes of the entertain
ment was to put before the people
the idea of standardization. Miss
Edna Marshall, Grade Supervisor.
talked on this subject. At the pres
ent time there are twelve standard
schools in Maryland, Garrett county
having one of the twelve. That
school is Hutton. By June, 1922, the
building at Flatwoods, with the help
of the patrons and friends, will be
standardized, it is hoped. Mr.. Fran
els McGettigan was elected president
of a community organization which
was started; Miss Edna Ault, secre-
tary. More detailed plans will be
published later.

LUTHERAN REPRESENTATIVES,
CONVENE HERE THIS MORNING
To Consider Acceptance of Home For
Aged Ministers and Dependents

Representative of the Lutheran
Synod of Maryland, West Virginia
and Allegany will meet in Oakland
today to consider the establishment
of a home for aged ministers and
their dependents upon tract of land
eight miles from Oakland, farm of
PA acres at that point having been
offered the church for this purpose.
The property is improved by six
room house, stable, sheep house, saw
mill and wooden mill, and is owned
by Lloyd Dawson and his sister
Rhoda, who will donate the farm on
condition that they be allowed to re-
main there the remainder of their
lives. They are now we'll advanced in
years, having passed the age Of
seventy.
The site offered is in the center of
a large Lutheran population and in
addition to being made a permanent
home for disabled ministers, it is
thought the institution could also be
made into a summer home for min
listers, missionaries and college pro-
fessors.

HOW THE BATTLE AGAINST
CANCER GOES.

A single surgeon down east made
the statement that radium was of
little or no use in the treatment of
cancer. Because people had gotten to
believe the opposite, this statement
was sensational and accordingly the
daily newspaper press association sent
it accordingly to every nook and cor
ner of the country, carrying dismay to
tens of thousands of sufferers and
their relatives and friends.
But this surgeon had no sooner said
his mouthful before scores of Just as
eminent surgeons came out with
strong statements combating his i'll
advised, depressing expression of O.
pinion. Many of these men are de-
voting their lives to the cure and re-
lief of cancer sufferers and their dec
larations can leave not the slightest
doubt that radium is relief in many
cases and positive cure frequently
But the daily press didn't rush into
print what they had to say.
While we are at it, let US give the
very latest facts on cancer as a dis
ease. The records of the two foremost
life insurance companies in America
the two insuring the greatest number
of people-show that cancer IS NOT
INCREASING in this country. Due
to the increasing number of cures, the
fatalities are, in truth, DECREASING.
There is hope that cancer will, be-
fore long, cease to be the monster it is
today. With tens of thousands of
scientists giving their best thought to
it and investigating and experiment
ing every day of their lives, it is only
to be expected that the disease will
be conquered in good time; or anyway
the number of its victims greatly re-
duced.

THE PROCLAMATION OF PEACE
Baltimore News, Nov. 49,

Baltimore News, Nov. 15.)
At the moment when the Confer
ence on the Limitation of Anna
nents is getting finally under way
President Harding issues the long
expected proclamation of peace with
Germany. The coincidence, if it is
altogether a coincidence, is fortu-
nate; it serves to throw into sharp
relief the policy which is now ami
mating the Government, and which
replaces the fantasies and the i'm
probabilities of the postwar pc
riod. AS we conclude our great ma
tional effort by peace which guar
antees to US the rights and safe
guards the interests arising from
the war, we are at the same time
discharging our duty toward the
peace of the future. AS we call con-
ference in which we recognize our re-
sponsibility as a world power and
our interest in international law and
order, we are also formally announc-
ing settlement which recognizes
our responsibility to ourselves and to
our own nationalism.
The peace with Germany, as has
been pointed out, secures to US every
thing which we would have asked
from Germany had our diplomacy
gone to Versailles in the first in
stance informed by nothing more
than a practical desire to end the
war and to establish our rights as
belligerents. That is all that we
should have wished or expected to
do in a peace conference. 1t is a
measure of the uncertainty and con-
fusion of the times that we endeav-
ored to transform a conference which
should have been kept rigidly to it's
purpose of liquidating the war into
conference which attempted to set
tie not only the past but all the ,fu-
ture. Even supposing that the latter
were a possible attempt, the last
place in the world in which it should
have been undertaken was the Yer
sailles Conference. It is a uniform
and very ancient experience which
might have told US that an effort to
do two things at once always ends in
the failure to do either. Versailles
neither liquidated the war nor ar
ranged anything but more discord
for the future. After long and
painstaking series of negotiations,
the Administration has at last ap-
preached within measurable distance
of doing the first We have secured
our rights as far as Germany is con-
ceTned; it only remains now for US
to come to an amicable understand
ing with our Allies and associates.

THE DEAD SOLDIER

/ 1t is easy to visualize the scene in
the white amphitheatre of Arlington
A great and solemn gathering, lisen-
ing to the quiet voice which CONVEYS
across the silence the reverence. the
gratitude and the strong hopes of an
entire nation. 1t is impossible not to
call in mind that other group which
listened, on a July day ffty-seven
years ago, to a similar message de-
llvered in another and greater voice,
but no more or no less informed by the
spirit which is the spirit of the Repub-
! lie of the United States. Underlying
the words of President Harding there
IS the same sense of the magnitude of
the sacrifice which has been made.
the same belief in the worthiness of
the cause, and the same passionate
conviction which led Lincoln to utter
the high resolve chat these dead
shall not have died in VAIN
In all our attitude toward the war
these are the two things which count:
the realization of the enormity and no.
blllty of its horror, and the response
bility which rests upon US to see that
our own actions now shall not render
1t meaningless. When Lincoln spoke
the conflict was not at an end, and the
duty of his hearers was plain before
them. We are now called upon to
make good in different and an in
finitely harder way the sacrifices of
the unknown soldier and of those
other spent lives which his body SYM
bolizes. In the chaos of the peace, we
must make valid the patriotism of
the war, and uphold the conception of
courageous and unequivocal ma
tionalism which they gave themselves
to maintain. We must do our best
to assure Brightness and justice, for
our own country as well as toward our
neighbors. We must honestly en-
deavor to find some better way of do
ing so than by war, if there is such
way. And we must be willing to re-
peat the sacrifice of war, if that is
the only way.-Baltimore News.
