business men can be held in check long.
 There is statewide movement on foot designed for the material advancement of educational affairs better schools. better conditions for those institutions. All over the state much interest is being aroused. Greene county may justly congratu- late itself upon having it's school interests pushed forward with in- telligence and energy. No county in the state is more fortunate in that respect due to the very capable and energetic administration of H. R. Partlow. With a spirit that's characteristic of the man, MT. Part low is rendering a most excellent service as county superintendent
 Practically every county in North east Arkansas is now striving for oil and gas development and the chances are reasonably favorable that somewhere in this section, and that very soon, success is going to be achieved Much of the favor is directed to Greene county. To be prepared for that achievement should occupy the thoughts of the local business element to the extent that the situation may be intelligent ly handled, in event of strike. The announcement of an "oil strike" would prove the signal for a gen. eral rush for every type of people. Certain elements would have to be held in check, if the best interests of the community would be prop erly conserved.
 Paragould and Greene county have little to complain about in the mat ter of general business conditions, at present or for the future. Few communities have fared as we'll as this particular one. Crop prospects are very bright and the demand for labor holds up remarkably well just a little while and fall activities will begin.

HOME BREW PLANT CAUSE
 OF TRAGEDY
Wife's Objection to Illus bands Operations May Result Seriously; Woman in Jail.

Bentonville, Aug, 1.-The objec- tions of Mrs. Mary Arnold to her husband manufacturing home brew resulted in a tragedy in the White river section of Benton county, and Arnold is not expected to live. Mrs. Arnold also wounded, and her young son are prisoners in the Benton county jail here.
 Mrs. Arnold has been married to Othro Arnold just four months, and the couple, with three children of Mrs. Arnold's by a former marriage, made their home in Pine Log town ship, in a lonely neighborhood four miles east of Garfield. The wife is said to have repeatedly remon- strated with her husband for making whiskey, and Saturday, after she told him that she would not allow him to cook the brew in the family kitchen, he is said to have threaten ed to kill her and her children. It must have been well armed family, for in the shooting array which followed, it is said that shots were fired by the man and by his wife and the woman's oldest son, Jerome Moore, a boy said to be IS years old, but who does not appear more than 12.
 The woman was shot in the leg, but the wound is not serious. Arnold is said to have fired at the boy through the window of the barn, and the boy, dropping to the floor, fired at his stepfather through a crack in the wall, the charge striking Arnold in the face and body. The man is said to be in a critical con- dition. He is said to have lost an eye and to have a large number of wounds in his body. He was taken to Seligman (Mo.) hospital.
 Sheriff George Naples arrived here with the woman and boy about midnight Saturday night. The wo- man is intelligent and of good ap- pearance. She seems to take the matter calmly, and says she was simply doing her duty; that she knew it was not right for her hus- band to make liquor, and that it was her place to prevent it if she could.

himself in favor Of Zionism. He prais-
ed Sir Herbert Samuels very highly
and appealed to the House not to en-
courage the Arab propagandists.
General Townsend declared that
the Arabs respected power above all
else, and a firm policy would succeed
with them.
Speaking in the name of the Labor
Party, Colonel Wedgewood urged the
recruiting of Jewish Regiment, and
ridiculed the contentious of those who
alleged that the Government was
spending excessive amounts for the
protection Of the Jews in Palestine.
He criticised the military officials
who preferred the ignorance of the
Arabs to the culture of the Jews.
Captain Ormsby Gore said that
Palestine can be rebuilt only by at
tracing Jewish capital and labor.
Lord Robert Cecil emphatically de-
declared that Jewish Palestine was
essential to the British policy in the
Middle East
A large part Of Churchill's state
ment deal with Britain's position in
Mesopotamia and the necessity of a
radical change in present tactics. Mr..
Churchill advocated for future policy
the establishment of series Of Arab
states in the Near East. Emir Feisal,
he stated, would become the ruler of
Mesopotamia under such a system, IL
his appointment aroused no opposition
on the part Of the inhabitants Of that
country.
The English press receives Church
ills statement on Palestine with much
satisfaction. The general view is that
a policy Of firmness will be instru-
mental in obviating much of the fric-
ton that has arisen between the Jew
ish and Arab elements and will do
much to re-establish British prestige
in the Near East.
