ENGLISH PREMIER
ATTACKS SOCIALISM
Premier Lloyd George in Stirring Adj
dress Denounces the So-Called La
Dor Party of England.
(By Associated Press)

London A bitter attack on social
ism was made today by Premier Lloyd
George in a speech at luncheon Of
new members of the coalition GROUP,
as the guests at the dinner were styl-
ed. "The military dangers which unit
ed the parties in the past have disap-
peared but greater, more insidious and
more permanent dangers now confront
US" declared the prime minister. "The
great peril is the rise to power of a
new party with new purposes of a most
subversive character. It calls itself
Labor. It is really Socialism. 1t is
tearing parties to pieces on it's way
to tearing society to pieces. Those
inclined to believe with Mr.. Asquith
and Lord Betinck that socialism is a
bogie have only to read socialistic
periodicals for one week. It is striv-
ing to overthrow all of those things
which for centuries progressive
thought has built u Fundamental
institutions are menaced"

GERMANY DECLARES
SHE CANNOT PAY
Formal Answer to Demand of Allies fol
Reparations Declares Bill is
Already Paid.
(Bv Associated Pressl

| Probationary in her reply today
to the recent ultimatum Of the allied
reparations commission, refuses to pay
the one billion marks gold due on this
date and disputes the commissions
figures showing balance of 12,000,-
100000 marks due May 1. 1t is main
tanned in the German note that the
| 100000 100000 marks which the peace
treaty provided should be handed over
lby May / has been more than paid.
/ The note asks that joint commission
of experts fix the value of the German
deliveries on reparations account, but
ut declares that in any event it would
be impossible for Germany to paw
/ 12,000,000,000 marks by the first of
May. The note concludes as follows:
If, after the experts have conferred,
| it is established that there is a deficit
in the payments by Germany, she is
ready to begin negotiations with the
reparations commission regarding the
floatig of loan abroad" The repara-
tions commission met this morning to
consider the German reply, which was
transmitted from Berlin last night.
The Germans failure to pay is deem
| ed violation of the treaty of Yer
SALES which the commission will re-
port to the allied governments. The
allies will then determine what meas
ure shall be taken. 1t is commented
here that the German experts already
have been heard by the commission,
which listened to their arguments be-
fore fixing the valuation Of the Ger
man deliveries credited as payments
against the 20,O00,o00 marks. This
valuation therefore was considered
final, since the treaty gives the com-
mission sole jurisdiction in the mat
ter The German reply does not ans
wer directly the commissions demand
for first payment of 100000 900
marks today. This point, however, is
covered on the face of things by Ger
many's contention of overpayment Of
the entire amount due by May l.
There is nothing said in the note,
nevertheless, to show that it would be
impossible for Germany to pay this
1000, 000,000,000 marks which the re-
parations commission knows that Ger
many has available in gold, as well as
in foreign securities, it is stated.

MARTIN Is NAMED
IN COURT ACTION
Purchaser of Jack Martin
Coal Company Seeks to
Recover $3.50.
ALLEGE FALSE VALUE

Jack Martin, we'll known Kenosha
coal dealer, is named as a defendant
in suit brought in the circuit court
by William L. Wisely and others, in
which a demand is made for damages
to the amount of $3.50 and for an
injunction to prevent Martin dispos-
ing of certain promissory notes which
the plaintiffs allege were given to
Martin in connection with a recent
purchase of the stock of the Jack Mar
tin Fuel and Supply company. The
plaintiffs in the action recently pur-
chased the stock and in the suit it is
alleged that Martin made statements
as to the value of the stock which were
not true. According to the suit, the
plaintiffs paid the defendant $4,000 in
promissory notes for the stock. They
now allege that the stock was repre-
sentative of an investment of but $1250
and the suit demands the repayment
to them of the balance of the money,
Seek to Prevent Sale of Notes.
The complaint alleges that the plain
tifs have reason to believe that the
defendant is negotiating for the sale
of the notes to an ''innocent third
party and the court is asked to pre-
vent such transfer of the notes. 1t
is declared that the notesfare now in
the keeping of local bank.
While the suit is not on the calen-
dar for trial at the present term of
the court, it is expected that the at
torneys for the plaintiffs will ask for
an order restraining Martin from dis
posing of the notes until the issues of
the suit have been heard by the court.

Cardinal Gibbons
is Weaker Today
by Associated Press1


Baltimore Cardinal Gibbons pass
ed restless night and was weaker
this morning, his secretary the Rev.
Albert E. Smith said, adding, however,
that the doctor had reported the pa
TENTS pulse to re good and had told
the members of the household there
was no immediate danger unless some
thing unforeseen set in. His heart ac-
ton was said to be weak and his tenn
perature low. No attempt was made to
minimize the gravity of the cardinals
case by members of his household or
his physician. The latter said the pre-
late's condition was very serious and
that he would have to be watched con-
stantly. He is unconscious a part of
the time. The doctor attributed the
change to the unusually warm wea-
Their of last Sunday.

MQuiring Reporter
ToDAY's QUESTION:

Do you think there is any value or
benefits derived from backyard gar
den? Question suggested by Miss NJ.
Telbar, Kenosha. Thanks.)
ANSWERS:
Mrs. Cox, Prairie ave.-I have had
small garden in back Of the house
for four years and am always glad
of it. Besides giving you knowl-
edge of gardening it provides you
with many vegetables that save you
considerable money if you were to buy
them at a grocery store.
/. J. Shappert, Milwaukee, traffic
manager-My wife and I always keep
"a small garden. 1t isn't very large
but it yields enough to make it worth
while, and it needs very little atten-
tion after you once get it going.
Fred Buck, Waukegan, atty-We
haven't had any gardens because of
lack of space but | have always wished
for one. Anything that the govern
ment gets behind, you can bet is
worth while. And if the government
will go to the expense Of giving away
seeds free every year then everyone
should take advantage of it. The slo-
gan should be "Raise a radish".
G. Temple, Exchange st., merchant
Sure they're good things if you keep
them right. There isn't better way
that know Of to keep down the gro
Gerry expense than by raising your own
vegetables. It's mostly question of
available space.
G. F. Clerman, 500 Division ST., shoe
salesman There is no doubt bat that
there are many benefits from a home
garden. If the war did nothing else
than to impress the people with the
Importance of home garden it did
something worth while. 1t is a very
good thing to know something about
planting and it gives you something
to do during your leisure moments in
the summer time.

There was no little excitement in
the municipal court this afternoon
when Mrs. Piros Of 362 Lemon street
tainted as a result of her excitement
over the fact that her daughter, Stella
Piros, was brought before the judge.
The daughter appears to have done
nothing more serious than to fall in

She is not under the best conditions
here and because of this it was decided
by the court to send her to Milwaukee

man on the printed ticket. Grosvenor's
feat of getting plurality regardless
of the fact that his name had to be
written in was easily the feature Of a
rather grey primary in Kenosha.
Less than five thousand votes were
cast throughout the city and in many
of the wards less than half the vote
cast at the national election turned
out to help in picking city officers.
One Of the other heartbreaking con-
tests was in the fourth ward where
Chester Brooks lost by single vote,
and gave second place on the ticket
to Theodore Loef.

Written in candidates were much in
vogue at the primary. In addition to
the battle in the first ward for alder
man, William O'Donnell was written in
as candidate for school commission

in as a candidate for county super

All of the present aldermen who
were candidates for reelection were
renominated and Adam J. Berger had
the lead in the fifth ward where the
present alderman did not seek re-
election.

will show that almost as many votes
were cast by the women as by the

THE stone walls of the White
Il House no more shut Lincoln in
from his fellows, from their hopes
and sorrows and pride, than did the
unhewn logs behind which he shivered
in the cabin home of his youth. One
night he dreamed that he was in a
crowd, when some one recognized him
as the president and exclaimed In
surprise: "He is a very common look
ing man." Whereupon he answered
"Friend, the Lord prefers common
looking people. That is the reason he
makes so many of them"
Lincoln liked people, and he always
kept in touch with the mass. He did
not have to take the word of pOliti-
clans or newspapers about what the
country was thinking. He went to
the source.
AS he finished his daily wrestle with
senator's and the big-wigs, he plunged
with zest into what he called his pub
lie opinion bath" Seated in his chair,
with one leg thrown over It's arm, he
received the motley crowd that poured
in through the wide open door of his
Office. Those who approached him in
awe found themselves at case in @e
presence Of a friend, whose manner
said to every one what he said in a
speech to a regiment: 81 happen TEN"
pOrarily to occupy this big White
House. l am a living witness that
The Oklahoma miner. [volume] (Krebs, Okla.) 1912-192?, 1921-07-14

any one Of your children may look to
come here as my fathers child has"
The man fairly exhaled democracy,
fraternity, equality. Frederick Doug
las said that Lincoln was the only
white man he ever met who did not
show consciously or uncOnsciOusly that
he recognized his color.
Sympathy flowed in a constant
stream from its fountain in this great
heart. A mothers tears, baby's cry,
a fathers plea, a crutch or an empty
sleeve never failed to move Lincoln.
"If he has no friend, I'll be his friend"
he said as he stopped the shooting Of
a soldier, under sentence Of a court
martial.
MY poor girl" he said to a woman
who pleaded for the life of her soldier
brother, you have come here with no
governor or senator or member of
congress to speak In your cause; you
seem honest and truthful and you
don't wear hoops, and I'll be whipped
if l don't pardon him."
Lincoln's office was almost his prison
cell through four terrible years. The
shouts of his two little boys at play
always were welcome notes Of joy to
their care-weighted father. He never
objected to their nOisiIy bursting in
upon him, and often he Joined the
children in their bosterOus games in
the White House grounds.
In the dark days when the nation
itself was at deaths door, one of the
boys died. For weeks the grieving
father strove in vain to win a spirit of
resignation, dropping his work for a
day at a time and surrendering to his
sorrow. Doubtless the fOrtitude he
gained at last in that wrestle with
himself became part Of the heroic faith
