ADVICE TO ITALY

Uncle Sam ought to sit down and write a
letter to our European friend Italy. He should
say something like this
Dear Italy: My hired man, Newton Baker,
who helped you not little during your late
war, tells me that you are maintaining the larg-
est military force in the world. That you have
the biggest army, regular and reserve bar
none He finds that you are leading the process
sion of the worlds militarists. You are spend
ing this year 1872, 100000 lire on your army.
That's something like S660,O0OOOO at present
rate Of exchange.
Pretty stiff bill, isn't it, old friend?
Yes, know you may think this is none of my
business, but
Another hired man of mine, Dave Houston,
has been going over our books and finds that you
still owe me billion and a half of dollars. He
says you claim that you can't pay even the in
terest on what you owe me. That interest is
piling high, into the millions Of dollars.
I'm not a flint-hearted man, and I'm willing to
give you plenty Of time to pay what you owe.
I'm willing to pass over interest payments if
that will help you get on your financial feet
I'm willing to do anything | can to help you,
but
Your wild army ambitions. are pulling you
deeper and deeper into the mire AS long as
you keep up your mad militarism you never can
get out of debt. Think it over.
You owe Great Britain. You owe France.
You owe everybody who would lend you money
when you needed it badly.
1t may be that your militarists want huge
army If so, let them help you pay your debts
first, and them talk the army thing over with
them.
A man who cont pay his debts - who can't
pay even the interest due on them - ought to
avoid extravaganza The same holds good for
q nation.

Prohibition Boon
to Grape Growers

Cleveland - That prohibition did not
ring the curtain down on the grape
industry was the opinion of delegates
attending the recent convention of the
National Grape Growers Congress here.
Though we lost the sour wine
trade" L. G. Young, grower of Erie
county, Pa, declared, "there has been
such an insistent demand for grapes
for the making of home made wine
by the foreign elements, who are wine
drinkers that the price of grapes is
higher than ever before"
Last season grape prices reached
top mark about 5000 ton, it was
said. In 1919 they were $50 ton and
in 1914 about $50 ton.
w. o. Johnson of Geneva, o., prcsi-
dent of the organization said the short
age of cars last season caused great
loss to the growers, because large
quantities of fresh fruit were allowed
to spoil due to inability to ship.

ON DRESS

Mrs. Warren G. Harding, the next first
lady," has this to say on the subject of dress ::
II have always felt clothes are tremendously
important. No one can afford to be Indifferent
about them"
Well spoken! Most of us like to say that it is
what person is and not what he looks like that
counts. But, in reality, we make our first judg-
ments of men on their looks and find out what
they are at our leisure.
Most of us are engaged in the business of
selling our personalities. It is sad to reflect,
but true, that to attract our customers to our
characters, we must give ourselves certain
amount of window-dressing
The function of good clothes is to provide the
immediate attraction that personality cannot
of itself forthwith attract.
Besides compelling the instant attention of
others, good clothes also have the quality of an
encouraging pat on the back Of the wearer
Who has not felt the self-confidence and the
pep that new spring suit, or even new hat
imparts?

PRESIDENT AND CABINET
DISCUSSED RAILROADS

Washington, April Y.-The railroad
problem in its relation to agriculture and
industry again was the foremost subject
of discussion at today's meeting of Pres
fdent Harding with his cabinet.
Renewed indications of the seriousnc q
Of the situation were surveyed in deta-.,
but there was. no decision either as to an
administration policy, or as, to- a plan of
action in dealing with the various inter-
ests involved. 1t was indicated that a
general conference of railway managers,
employees and shippers still was posi-
bilty, although no such meeting has yet
been determined upon.
From the first the administration has
been reluctant to go over the head Of the
constituted government agencies created
TO deal with wage and. rate problems and,
is understood, officials here still hope
for solution through those avenues.
Reports of conditions laid before the
cabinet today Indicated that the trans
portation problem not only was seriously
affectinf agricultural interests. but was
greatly handicapping industry in general
High freight rates on such basic products
as food and coal, it was said, were cut
