SOLDIERS AND NURSES
 HONORED

The Alabama State society of Washing ton, D. C., of which Maj T. V Walker
 is president, is planning, with the finan- cial and moral support of the chambers of commerce and Rotary clubs and other civic organizations of Alabama, to have celebration at Walter Reed general hospital, U. s. A., for the wounded sol diers and nurses on Thursday, May 5, many offwhom have been there, bed-rid- den for IS months or more
 One of the members of the Alabama State society in Washington said:
 Tt is the plan of the Alabama State society to present a pageant of the state history and to have the governor and his staff and other noted Alabamians pres ent. It will take $1 900 to finance it, to make it a success, but if there Is the desired and asked for cooperation the financial problems will be easily solved Delaware and Rhode Island, much small CT states, as well as Massachusetts, had big affairs for their heroes. Why shouldn't Alabama, the first in the list of states, and the first of the southern states to attempt a celebration of this kind, receive all needed help and coop eration. and succeed in her efforts as she should?
 Tt has already been decided that May will be observed throughout the state of Alabama as Walter Reed Hospital Day for the wounded, which is all right as far as it goes, but the plea we make is that the chambers of commerce, Ro- tary and all civic clubs, different organ nations, business firms and different in- dividuals rally to the financial aid of the Alabama State society that their plans for the day will be big success, in that the hearts of the inmates of Wal ter Reed hospital may be cheered and comforted by the interest shown them by so doing?

LEAGUE AND CONFERENCE

There is a vast difference between
the league OF nations and the con
ference that assemblies in Washing
ton "a .t'tl.'tc. liav Many 10
q adhcr.uts 81 President Wilson max,
sarcastic reference to President Hard.
ing's association of nations" and seek
to draw a parallel between it and Mr.
" Visions league. But they are fund
amcntally different, Every member OF
the larut is controlled by Majority
vttes at the A, nDly or unani nCus
sCtcs o! the ,rulaIl according % the
sort OF question under discussion. II
a minority member disagrees with the
dictum of its associates, il is to be
bought into submission bv economic
and military pressure. The armam
tnts conference, on the other hand.
is a free and open debate on Pacj-
fit Lfobiems and the extent TO which
ornaments should be REDUCED. 10
member OF the conference obligates
itself 10 be bound by what the othc~s
r1ay do, and for that very reason
there is added hope that definite re-
suits will be accomplished between fac
TORS and between individual mem
bers. which so far has prevented any
.,onee,ted action and will always rem
Il impotent. In the Washington
ornaments conference there is simply
he mutual desire 10 arrive at under
standings, which are far more likely,
TO be reached and kept because the
Of force is entirely lacking.

pANKEY BACK IN THE
CATTLE GAME; BELIEVES
IN FUTURE OF LIVESTOCK

B. F. Pankey returned from Lin
coin county Tuesday where he pur-
chased one thousand head Of one, two
and three year old steers, The ones
and two's will be pastured on his
three's will be shipped 10 the Pankev
and Wakelee thousand acre ranch
near Alamosa. Colorado. where they
will be fed for market.
This IS encouraging news and a
real Tip on the cattle business. for
Mr.. Pankey is considerable Of a
wizard in that business. He al
ways scents the trend and buys thou
sands Of head OF cattle Just before
a raise in price and usually sells out
clean lust before any big drop,
He sold ont entirely two or three
years ago when cattle were bringing
the highest prices in a generation
and rented his large ranches 10 9TH
err growers who stayed in the game
and lost thousands on the decline.
He has not had any cattle TO speak
of for many months, hut now that he
is starting in again, viii the purchase
OF a Thousand head the first crack
AVID more large purchases likely TO
follow. we are willing TO wager that
the price OF cattle will be way above
wha' j. now is in less than six months.
All that he would say to the State
Record was Il believe in the future
OF the cattle business" hut that is
enough Knowing him as well as we
do we know that that means that
cattle are going IN and thai the live
stock industry is coming back into It's
own.
