 Everybody owes everybody else, with nobody paying bills A finan- cial crash would have come months ago but for the fact that no firm can afford to demand payments of its bills. To do so would throw the debt or into bankruptcy, force more un- saIable goods on the market at sacr1- fee prices, and the firm forcing pay ment would in turn be called on to pay bills which, under present cond1- tions, it cannot meet.
 There is an increasing number Of trading ships going to South Russian n ports, mostly British, Greek and 1tal- ian. To date, no American ship has gone, partly because of the lack of Board vessels, the decision of the management not to permit any of its ships to touch Bolshevik ports

N. E A VOICES APPEAL
FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Throughout the country. teachers
are now being selected and salaries
fixed for the coming year. Hundreds
OF thousands Of public school teach
ers will be, employed during the next
few weeks. In recognition OF the
momentous Importance Of this fact,
the National Education association
today gave out the following appeal
to school boards and citizens:
This is no time for extravaganza
in governmental expenditures. APP
propriations should be carefully scru-
tinted and all unnecessary items
eliminated. The times demand the
application Of the best business prin-
ciples in the conduct Of public at
fairs.
However, there can be no retrench-
ment in the support Of education.
Money wisely expended for this pur-
pose is an investment in citizenship
and an insurance against the revolu-
tionary conditions which exist in
countries whose peoples are ignorant
and illiterate. -r !,
Our free public school system is
an integral part Of our free govern
nent, essential to its life and pros
perity. The only secure foundation
for democracy is an enlightened and
intelligent electorate. A government
Of the people and by the people can
be no better and no stronger than the
composite citizenship of which it is
constituted.
This fact was recognized by the
far-seeing statesman who founded
this nation. William Penn declared
chat the only way to preserve free
government was by the education Of
all its citizens, "for which," said he.
spare no cost, for by such parsimony
all that is saved is lost" Washington
urged his countrymen ito promote as
objects Of primary Importance insti-
tutions for the general diffusion of
knowledge" Jefferson, Adams and
Madison taught that the education OF
all the people furnishes the greatest
safeguard for our free institutions.
The greatest need of our country
today is competent, well-qualified
teachers to train the future citizens
Of the nation. We must get rid OF
the incompetent and unprepared in
our public schools. The schools Of
tomorrow should be taught only by
the best, and the profession Of teach
ing must be made so inviting that it
will attract. and hold the best. Any
reduction in the salaries of teachers
or any failure properly to appreciate
the Importance of education will turn.
from the teaching profession those
young men and women now prepar-
ing for their life's work who should
be secured for this most important
field Of public service. #
Let US cut down expenditures for
luxuries.. Let us reduce appropria-
tions wherever it . can be done with
safety, but for the perpetuity Of those
ideals and principles which are near
est to the hearts of the American peo-
pie, there can be no backward step in
the development Of strong, intelli-
gent, patriotic citizenry, upon whom
must depend the preservation of the
things for which we have made such
sacrifice in blood and treasure. The
hope of America is in her free pub
lie schools. To elevate their stand

gazine. and one of the leading Repub-
lean workers OF Yavapai county. died
At his home in Prescott Friday.
Mr.. Powers came to Arizona from
California for his health and although
he never fully recovered his condi-
ton did not prevent him from giving
his efforts TO his party and to the
building up of one of the leading ma
gaines in the state.
Although he was an organizer and
party worker in every sense. his only
political reward was when he was
connected with the Office of the state
board of health. issuing its bulletin
and preparing its publicity. He re-
signed shortly after his appointment
by Governor Campbell to return to
Prescott. where climatic conditions
were more favorable to his case.
