CONNECTS SELF TO-DAY
lBy United Pressl

Leipzig, Germany, May 24.-The
first of Germany's war criminals to
be tried has convicted himself, it was
believed here today. It was predicted
that Sergesnt tHinan, first of the cit
tie; list" to- be tried, would be SEN
fenced to not less than two years inn
prisonment for brutal treatment of
war prisoners. ~ ~. .As@sf= ~
Hinan, according to the British,
was given every chance to offer favor
able testimony, but turned the court
against him BY childish explanations.
Eight British soldiers who were pris-
oners under Hinan's charge and 16
Germans were witnesses in the Hinan
case. Witnesses said he beat them
with his fists and rifle butt, and bat
ted them with bayonets. go 5',-a

Bradford The next obstacle to
American recognition OF the present
Mexican government has been re-
moved. it was believed here today.
The United States has been insistent
that any recognition must hinge upon
one assurance that American citi-
zens and property in Mexico would
be adequately protected. President
Oregon has been equally insistanti
that he cannot sign a set Of written
guarantees because Of the impression
of coercion that would result in his
country. '$P B. IF g
The communication from Hughes
which George P. Sommerlin is bear
ing to Mexico City, however, it was
authoritatively stated today: contains
merely the suggestion that steps
should be taken by the Mexican gov
eminent preliminary to recognition
These will be adopted by Mexico with
out airy written promises. /.

1T ALL DEPENDS

There is an old saying that "It all
depends on whose OK is gored." For
instance, when the I. V. A. bankers
had their press pour broadsides of
bank-wrecking propaganda into the
Bank Of North Dakota in particular
and into the farmers banks, in gener-
al, it was fine sport and "good poll
tics"
But when the League press re-
turned the compliment and began to
publish facts and figures showing that
the banks of the crowd behind the at
tack on the Bank of North Dakota and
the farmers banks, were, in many,
many instances in far worse condi-
ton, the would-be wrecker squealed
like stuck pigs.
What evidently got on the nerves
of the "bankerocracy most however,
was the publication of excerpts from
letters written by bankers to the Bank
of North Dakota, which excerpts
proved beyond controversy that the
~broken-down private banking system
and not the great Bank of North Da-
kota, was responsible for the credit
collapse in the state.
Their own letters further proved
their much advertised garnishee suits
against the Bank of North Dakota,
and their other equally foolish attacks
and Investigations, to be nothing more
o less than smoke screens to cover
their w pitiable failure.
In other words it now appears that
they were at the ancient game of
throwing sand in the eyes of the peo-
pie in order to get out of the hole
they had initiated themselves into, and
in the con game they we're ably assist
ed by many L. V. A. "servants of the
people," Some servants.

MR.. MERCHANT

How do YOU like this editorial ad-
vice given by the Wall Street Journ-
al (1-6-21) to the farmers:
"What the farmers have to sell will
not exchange for as much of what
they want to buy as formerly: There
fore retail trade must suffer. The re-
taller is still unliquidated; the coun-
try store has not played fair, and per-
haps is in debt ito the wholesaler.
When will the farmer begin to ask
questions nearer home?"
The caps are ours, but the voice is
the voice of Jacob Wall Street and
he is just as crooked today as he was
centuries ago when he lied to his old
blind father and stole his brothers
birthright and blessing. He has not
changed. He is still the "Supplanter,"
still the man who profits IN the hung
er of his brother.
But, how do you merchants like the
advice you who have been falling for
it when Wall Street tried to lay all
the blame for the world wide collapse
of the economic and financial struct-
+ first on the workers and then on
the farmers?
Time after time we of the Leader
have tried to warn you that it was
your turn next to be "Deflated."
Time after time we have called your
attention to the cold economic fact
that, if farm prices and wages were
smashed to s~mithereens, you would
soon be face to face with being
smashed by Wall Street ,also. Now
that your hour has come how do you
Ike it?
Now you will fall all owe your
selves to sign the Iva recall and i'll
it;ative petitions, won't you! Excuse
us, but we just can't help ourselves
We told you 50!
