An Insult to the Brave

Surely every red-blooded American
who went overseas and who did his
bit on the fields of France will re-
sent, not only for himself but for his
fallen comrades, the insult heaped up
on Americas part in the war by one
George Harvey, whom President
Harding appointed as ambassador to
Great Britain.
We did not go to war for the bene-
fit Of humanity, said Harvey in a
speech at London last week. We did
very little in that war, he went on,
in fact we only came in and helped
the allies shorten it. eve were
afraid not to fight" is the reason we
went in, he said. There were no
high ideals involved at all, said the
misrepresentation of America to the
great nation whose people speak our
own language.
| Of course, Harvey wanted another
opportunity to insult the man who
once had the nerve to tell him the
truth-W Wilson-and it mat
cred not to him that he cast slur
upon the grave of every American
soldier who died in that war. We
| professed then that we were fighting
for something noble, for others and
not for ourselves. Harvey says now
| we were miserable hypocr1teS ano
liars when he denied that we had
any other motive than fear.
There was no mistaking the fact
that the Harding administration was
afraid all along that Harvey would
make fool of himself if sent to the
court of st. James, but they wanted
to pay a political debt to this new
accession. The worst fears of the
administration were quickly con-
| firmed. He went further than his
war expressions and declared that
| by no hook or crook could the United
States be enticed into participation in
the League of Nations or into recog-
milton of any commission of any sort
appurtaining thereto. President Hard
ing and Secreary Hughes have never
gone that far in pronouncing for
eign policy. Is. George Harvey to
make the foreign policy of this gov
ernment? If he is not the president
! had better give him the hook. just
as sensible to turn a bull loose in a
china shop as to let Harvey roam
around England and shoot off his
mouth so irresponsibly.-Lexington

Power Litigation
to Be. Heard June Is
City of High Point is One Of Plaintiffs
in Case in Greensboro
Courts.

Greensboro, May 23.-Followinp
argument here today by attorneys foa
the Southern Power company and for
the North Carolina Public Service
company and the cities of Greensborp
and High Point, Judge James e.
Boyd issued an order restraining the
Public Service company from pro-
ceeding further with the case in the
state courts, with the exception that
the public service company may file
a petition for rehearing in the state
supreme court which rendered a de-
cision last week. June 16 was set
<as the date on which trial will begin
in federal court here,
1t was a sort of victory for the
Southern Power company, w. S. OBJ.
Robinson, of Charlotte, and Judge w.
P. Bynum, of Greensboro, it's attor-
neys, having argued their motion
that the action by the Public Service
company in the state courts be re-
strained. On the other hand the Judge
ruled that the Southern Power COM
pany must continue to furnish cleo
trio current to the Public Service
company, which uses it to operate
street railway systems in Green's
boro and High Point and to retail
in the shape of power and light I'd
the people of the two cities. The
latter order continues in effect until
a decision is rendered in federal
court.
The issue is whether the Southern
Power company must furnish elec-
tricity to the plaintiff, the Public
Service company.

Success

He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often and. loved
much; who has gained the respect of
all good men and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche and
accomplished his task; who has al
ways looked for the best in others
and given the best in return; who has
never failed to express it,: who has
left the world better than he found
it, whether by an improved poppy, a
perfect poem, or rescued soul ;
whose life was an inspiration, and
memory a benediction.
