HINDERED PRAYERS,

Nothing that We can do is so important in the work of converting sinners. com forting those that mourn and developing the spiritual life in ourselves and others as prayer. But if the way to the mercy seat shall be closed what shall we do? Whither shall we go for refuge in trouble. for light in darkness, for help in conflict. if the ear of the Lord be turned away from us?
 Ah whither shall we flee for aid
 When tempted. desolate dismayed,
 Or how the hosts of hell defeat?
 Prayers are often hindered. In some cases Christians cease to pray altogether and in other cases they continue to offer up cola. heartless, impotent prayers, but they avail nothing
 Prayers are hindered by sin. If I re. gard iniquity in my heart. the Lord will not hear me" It was a time of great trouble and need when the prophet said tc the people, Behold, the Lords hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither His ear heavy, that it cannot hear: but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hi6 His face from you, that He will not hear How many prayers fall to the ground because those who offer them are not righ in the sight of God. In this way a whoi, church may be paralyzed in it's attempt. to approach the throne of grace. One par ticular sin which frequently flinders pray CT is an unforgiving spirit. Bitter feelings uncharitahle feelings, unkind feelings make prayer useless. While such a spiri is cherished in the bosom one cannot of

THIRTY THOUSAND
 ARMY HORSES WILL
 BE KILLED HUMANELY Y

LONDON, July 2O-Horse lovers throughout the country have been shocked by Colonial Secretary Win ston Churchill's announcement in the House of Commons that 30,000 army horses in Mesopotamia are to be killed because it is too expensive to bring them home.
 It was explained that they are mainly heavy draft horses for which there is no local use, and that they had to be fed on imported fodder. The nearest possible markets are India or Egypt, but the difficulties and cost of transportation thence are snid to be prohibitivc.
 Shipping men say it costs $200 to $250 to bring horse from the East to England, not counting horsemen wages.
 The War Office view is that it is better for the horses to be killed humanely and scientifically than to be left in the hands of natives who would not care for them properly, and no one would suggest turning them adrift in the desert.

Deadlock in Mine Strike.
Here at home there is no respite
from industrial trouble. The miners
rejected terms of settlement which in
cluded a government subsidy of over
fifty million dollars with which to
ease down wages to an economical
level. Their executives then turned to
ether unions with disputes pending
or negotiations in hand. appealing to
them to join in a general strike.
There is little hope in that direction.
and it looks as If restart of the min
ing industry can be made only under
impoverishing conditions on cold.

government subsidy has been lost. 1t
is a sad ending, If. indeed, the end is
in sight, to a great struggle in which
both sides have been badly led.
There are other disputes raging and
the unemployed have become, SO nu-
merous that insurance funds have
been depleted and benefits are about

of the industrial disturbances has
been a still further weakening of the
already weakened prestige of the

The government lost a seat in parlia-

seat vacated by the elevation to the

SOVIET RUSSIA WEA WING WEB OF
FRIENDSHIP ABOUT NEAR EAST

RIGA, Letvia, June 4.-Recent ar
rivals from Moscow declare that
the world little realizes how close
ly soviet Russia is pushing its
friendship with the near east.
In Moscow now the Turkish lega-
tion occupies one of the most sump-
tuous of the old palaces and the
personnel, garbed in faultless Euro
pean clothes, present a strange
contrast to the poorly garbed Mus
covites. The Afghans and other
near eastern delegations also oc-
cupy luxurious quarters. give elab-
crate banquets and otherwise carry
on with all the pomp of the old
eastern courts.
Members Of Lenin'S government
are frequently guests at these af-
fairs and entertain the legation
personnels equally laviShly in re-
turn.
Besides this. Lenin has so ac-
commodated himself to the psy-
chology Of the east that he now
exchanges presents with the rulers
of Turkey. Persia, etc. as did the
rulers of ancient days.
A Moscow dispatch today reads
like a paragraph from what might
have been an ancient tablet of
heiroglyphics describing the visit
of a Babylonian envoy to King
Cyrus of Persia. 1t says: The
representative of the soviet gov
ernment has made his first official
visit to the Shah of Persia. pre-
senting to the shah on golden
salver an album with photographs
OF soviet leaders of the whole of
Russia as personal present to the
shah from Lenin."
4 man who recently arrived from
Moscow said: Few persons realize
what a close connection now ex-
lists between Russia and its old
enemy. Turkey. and for that mat
ter all of the near east. Lenin
is accomplishing here what the old
Russian government could not do
by playing up to eastern psychol-
oGy.
The so-called bolshevism in these
eastern countries is nothing at all
like the bolShevism of Moscow, but
in each case the Russian agitators
have a distinct brand of propa-
ganda designed to dovetail with

BERLIN, June 25.-And SO the
economic consequences Of the peace
have begun. France demanded her
raparations in gold. and the very first
payment has set the financial world
by the ears. France rejected what
we could give from our own store.
She demanded that which we did not
have. gold.
To meet her demands it became
necessary for Germany to buy Ameri-
can dollars, the only international
money based today on the gold stand
ard and having the equivalent value
Of gold throughout the world. The
demand for dollars sent them to a
higher premium. Allied moneys
dropped in consequence. and thus we
have the situation that what was
gained from Germany was lost in the
purchasing power of the franc. Eng

money. suffered in the monetary de-
cline.

And yet. what else could be ex-
pected. The allied supreme council
the demands for huge reparation
sums would upset the economic
world. Under the pressure OF
France, the council went ahead with
its senseless demands, and now it be-
gins to look as if the problem would
have to be reopened and some new
method of payment devised.

problems are now settled.
Consider what is happening in Upper
SileSia. Early in May the plebiscite
zone was invaded by German contin-
gents, estimated by Premier BRAND
in his speech in the chamber. at 5000
men. Todays papers unanimously
agree that the force now amounts to
10000 men. fully equipped with mod

equipment. if. as Lloyd George al

facts prove-and they do-that for
whole month men and munitions nave
been passing continuously from Ger
many into Silesia?
Gen. LerOnd's Advice Ignored.
Gen. Lerond, president of the inter-
allied commission on Silesia, has been
vainly trying to call the attention of
the governments to this rapidly de-
veIoplng peril. Fov two years , had
Gen. Lerond under my orders when 1
was commissioner general OF Franco
American affairs. His judgment is the
coolest and calmeSt l have ever met.
Everything he has predicted at Up"
peln has happened exactly as he fore
told. Instead Of following his advice
and taking immediate action to halt
Germany's military preparations, the
allied governments are undertaking,
in violation of the treaty. to have So
called experts revise the proposals OF
the president of the inter-allied COM
mission, made in conformity with the
treaty.
Such a procedure will hardly facili-
tate that disarmament which has been
prematurely proclaimed by LLOYD
George as an accomplished fact.
Concerning reparations, we nave
made no progress. Only yesterday
Germany again increased her internal
expenses on the pretext OF lowering
the price Of bread.
France Doing Its Best.
France, meantime. is doing her pest
to accommodate herself to the situa-
ton, In the first five months of this
year we have succeeded in reducing
our imports by 7,00O.000,000 francs,
compared with the same period IN
1920. But Germany fails to do ike
wise.
We have cut imports OF raw ma
terials to the point of shutting down
factories. We are admittedly in an
economic crisis Why? Because the
means have not been found for a sat-
isfactory settlement from Germany.
There are many reasons why france
cannot share the satisfaction ex~
pressed by the British prime minis
ter in his speech the early part Oh the
week.
