prisoners to lay all the blame on them.
 The outstanding facts in the case are that Taylor and Tato in conncc- tion with two others, were in run ming fight with Officer Preston near Norfolk last month, several shots being exchanged. There were four in the party, two of whom escaped. Due to lack of evidence on the part of the state or the unusual ability of the public defender, the men were freed by the court. Whats the answer?
 If these men were innocent of crime, they at least were keeping very bad company. Their actions would hardly be those of men who respected and wished to obey the law. Tn our opinion justice has been deferred and it will be only a matter of time before they are again hailed into court.

Sam J. Banks has contributed some verse to this edition of the News entitled "Autumn". Anyone who has travelled the highways the past week, enjoying the mellow at mosphere which like mothers caress as she puts her babes to sleep makes one think that Nature is tucking away her trees and plants for the winter. The gorgeous tints on the foliage adds greatly to the scene' until it would seem there was noth- ing left to fill life's cup to over flowing.

LIGHT SOIL FOR FARMSTEAO
Ground Occupied by Farm Buildings May Be Poorest klnd-Sandy
 Soils Are Excellent.

The garden, lawn, orchard and wind-break. constituting a consider able portion of the farmstead, require good and preferably light soil, while the ground occupied by the farm buildings may be the poorest land on the farm. Not infrequently the two kinds of soil may be found within the farmstead area, but 1t Is better to sac rifice a little crOp-producing land for the buildings than to handicap the garden or orchard with poor soil. Sandy or gravelly soils are excellent for general farmstcad purposes, as they are favorable for plant growth and drain rapidly-very desirable qualitieS

DR.. Eliot Puts
Training First
Physical Development Most
Important TO Education,
He Says.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Nov. 30
Universal physical training Is the
most important and urgent improve
ment In American education which can
now be made" according to Charles
w. Eliot, president emeritus of Har-
ward University. at his home in Cam
bridge Wednesday, while discussing
plans for American Education Week.
The greatest need of American
children today is healthy and vigorous
bodies as the basis for useful and
joyous lives" said DIR. Eliot. and it is
his opinion that Congress should
make liberal appropriations for the
establishment and maintenance OF
nationwide physical education Of all
American children"
The American Legion and the Ameri
can Education Association. who are
cooperating in the successful estab
lishment Of American Education

yesterday by President Harding, be-
Iieve that the public should be in
formed of the accomplishments and
needs Of the public schools and urge
the support of the public in meeting

withheld from the French delegates.
When allowance has been made Tor
the difficulties of Frenchmen in COM
pretending American conditions ana
modes of thought, it is undeniaoie
that, as soon as the French delega-
ton found their bearings and real
lied the misleading effect OF sundry
erroneous notions with which they
had been piled, they entered into the
spirit of the conference and became
truly helpful.
The interview between Nj. BRAND
Mr.. Balfour and Sir Auckland Geddes
that preceded the French prime min
ister's great statement of France s
position, revealed the fundaments
coincidence of French and British
views upon the tasks of the con-
ference, and the requirements Of
world peace Recognition of this
fact enabled Mr.. Balfour to follow
up NJ. Brands statement with his
moving expression of British .solidar-
ity with France, should she ever be
compelled again to stand as the
foremost defender OF European lib
critics. And-a consideration to which
the French are by no means in
sensible-Mr. Balfour's speech. in its
turn, made 1t far easier than 1t might
otherwise have been for Mr.. Hughes
to Join wholeheartedly in the gen.
sral denial of the moral isolation Of
France.
Despite quips and gibes, to which
no real Importance ought ever to
have been attached, M. BRAND, as
1 have a good reason to know, ard
emily desires the closest understand
ing and the fullest cooperation
with England. Since his depar-
ture, the leading French delegates,
NJ. Viviani and Sarraut, have neg
lected no opportunity of showing
their cordiality toward their Brit
ish colleagues. by whom, it need
hardly be said, their goodwill il
warmly reciprocated-
have said enough to indicate
the atmosphere within the confer
ence, as distinguished from the
doubts, the specufations, and the
vaporings without. Some unto
ward incident may still cause a mo-
mentary embarrassment, but in any
event. things seem now to be NOV
ing SO strongly and swiftly to-
ward the realization Of the main de
sires of those who wish the con-
ference well, that II is difficult t6
imagine how its outcome can be
anything but a solid and enduring
success.

HOPE OF IRISH
PARLEY LINCERS
IN new PLANS
Rejection May Delay Trip
Of Lloyd George to
United States.

LANDON. Nov. 30.-The- Irish con-
ference is still in being. That is
all that can be said for the mo-
ment. but 1t is good news and both
sides are still hopeful.
Sir James Craig at the opening
of the Ulster parliament today be-
gan breathing defiance at both the
Sim Fein and Great Britain and
wound up by offering a new con-
ference.
The net result is that Prime Min
lister Lloyd George will proba bly,
have to postpone HIS departure to
Washington. Professionally fixed for
Wednesday, for few days. but he
hopes to sail on Wednesday or Sat-
urday OF next week
by TUESDAY next these negotia-
tions will have broken down or
the prime minister will send new
proposals for consideration by the
cabinet. In the meantime the
rights of Ulster will in no way be
sacrificed or compromised"
This was the long awaited agreed
statement decided upon between
Craig and Lloyd George and made
by Craig at the opening Of the
Belfast parliament. At first glance
1t seemed to indicate the complete
failure of the conference. 1t Is
necessary to explain. however, that
Craig refers to negotiations be-
tween Ulster and Downing Street
and not to negotiations with the
Sim Fein.
Blnckest Day for Craig.
