its hiding place.
The slave acted at the COM
mand of his master Probably
he could not have done other
wise; but whether he performed
the act willingly made no differ
cnce with him. He gave his.word
and he stuck to it despite every
inducement offered. The incident
is touching as an instance OF fidel-
iy. 1t also affords one OF the
countless illustrations of the un-
dying devotion which the gentle
folk of the old South received
from those humble members OF
their establishments who natur-
ally absorbed the same high code
of honor which their bencfactors
themselves cxemplified.

HE KEPT THE FAITH

There died the other day James
Jones, who had been the slave
and also the bodyguard of Jeffer-
son Davis. This former-slave was
with the President of the Confed-
eracy when he was captured. At
Davis command the slave buried
the great seal OF the Confederate
government and promised never
to reveal its location. That prom
Use he kept inviolate. despite the
fact that he was urged often to
reveal its hiding place. There
were reasons why he might re-
gard as no longer binding the
promise given under such circum-
stances. but with him a promise
was a promise and he was faith
full TO his trust. Nothing could

LOVE OF THE SEA

Going 10 sea may not be unani-
nously agreed upon as the most
attractive occupation that the
world affords; but there are
many, many thousands who think
that il is and who follow it for
the love of il. Some of these
thousands must be included
among the American marine
workers now on strike against ac-
ceptance OF ID per cent wage re-
duction. Love OF the sea isn't
limited to tales of romance. Real
men actually feel it; there is no
occupation, no means OF making
a living. that they would prefer.
But for those who 60 to sea
chiefly for what there is in it, I"
this seems to be time for serious
thought, observes the Seattle
Post-lntelligencer, for there is a
very important economic advant-
age in sea faring that landsmen
DO not enjoy. Wages at sea,
whatever they may be, are sub
tantially net The cost of board
and lodging. big item on shore,
cuts no figure with the marine
worker, for his quarters and his
good go with the job, and he
doesn't have to spend a cent for
them. Take for example, a
marine engineer capable OF earn
ing. $500 or $270 a month. Such
a man, ron shore, would expect to
spend not less than 500 a month
in feeding and housing himself
alone. And at sea this consider
| able margin Of gam runs all down
the line, from the captain on the
bridge to the least man of the
ships company.
The 10 per cent cut determined
upon by the ship owners and the
United States shipping board will
still leave marine wages ranging
from 70 to more than 100 per cent
higher, than the scales of 1914. 1t
doesn't seem to be drastic cut
EGertainly it isn't anything of an
approach to starvation" wages.
And when we add to the proposed
wage scale reasonable allow
.ance for living costs, which the
mariner doesn't have to pay, the
case of the strikers is not so dcs-
1eratc as some would have it
ceem to be.

They have insisted upon a standard

no FARM HELP PROBLEM

There will be no such dearth
Of hands on American farms this
summer as confronted the farm
ers last year, according To the
chief OF the bureau OF crop esti-
mates. More than 100000 men
will be available for agricultural
work when the harvesting season
arrives, he says, and they will ac-
cept wages from 20 to % per cent
lower than those they received
in 1920. This will permit the till
ing OF a large acreage and guar
antees continued low prices OF
farm products,
The point of view from which
it is most desirable to consider
this situation is that of the far
mers. The sharp decline which
has occurred in food prices since
the harvesting OF the last crop has
not been an unalloyed blessing.
Consumers have benefited at the
expense OF the producers. The
farmers were dealt severe blow
when corn. cotton, wheat, tobacco
and livestock fell to the current
. level. Their purchasing power
MAS seriously curtailed. There
would have been no such. result
il the cost of other products had
been reduced in like proportion;
but it has been only in the last
month or two that some of the
things needed by farmers--agri-
cultural machinery. for example
have receded from the peak
prices OF the war, and as yet com
paratiNely few have come down
to the same extent that farm
products declined.
The further reduction in the
price of the latter. which il is pre-
dicted will result from the in
creased acreage made possible by
the abundance of labor. may not.
therefore. be as conducive to the
general welfare as at first thought
it would appear to be. One
might suppose that big crop
at low prices would be just as
profitable as 4 small one at high
prices; but this is not always the
case. 4 glutted market some
times makes it impossible for the
producer to obtain for his prod
uct even the cost OF production.
The cut in farm hands wages
will help the agriculturalists I;
but to insure their prosperity it
is essential that there should be
improved methods of distribu-
ton, SO that it will be unneces-
sary for them 10 dispose of their
crops at ruinous prices-prices
which are not always passed on
To the consumers, because the
middle men sometimes hold the
grain, meat, cotton. wool and to-
bacco until an artificial shortage
has been created. and thus are
enabled to make the consumers
pay a stiff price.
The country as whole will not
prosper unless the farmers are
prosperous.

maintain only two game lead over New York in the American league race but the Indians have shown ability to brace when threatened by their Yam kee pursusrs. Although New York took one-sided game from the champions today after the leaders had outclassed them yesterday, Cleveland is playing the better ball. The Indian pitching staff appeared to be the steadier and the club seems stronger in stick work.
 In the National league, Brooklyn and St. Louis have been aided by good pitching. The Superbas have dropped several close games while the Cardinals. who tied them today for fourth place, are playing winning ball, capturing their last five games. Chicgo hes moi played as well at home as it did in the east. The visiting twiriers held the Cub batsmen well in check until Sat urday when the Philadelphia mounds men were hit hard. Cincinnati is doing fairly well for second division team and threatens the Cubs.

GIANTS SUFFERED FIRST
 DOUBLE DEFEAT OF SEASON

New York July 31-The New York Nationals suffered their first double defeat of the season today just when Manager McGraw saw hope of going ahead of the Pittsburgh League lead CTS for the first time since June 6. The Giants, who had pounded their way to a joint ownership of first place with the Pirates Saturday, today fell back a game behind their rival when Cincinnati wrested two hard fought contests from them. The Pirates, how ever, are in the midst of their first real slump, due mainly to a falling off in pitching and lack of scoring power. Boston, which is five games back of Pittsburgh, continues it's task of trying to catch the leaders. The Braves are not hitting hard but the pitchers are effective. A double defeat recently. also to the credit of Cincinnati, delayed the Braves in their pursuit of the
 rates.

ARRANGING PROGRAM FOR
 ALLIED SUPREME COUNCIL

Paris. July s1.-CBy the A. p The program for the coming meeting of the aIlied supreme council, now tentatively set for August s, is likely to require considerable further negotiations, slncs there is still a divergence of views be- tween Paris and London regarding the advisability of considering now whether the allied troops ought to be withdrawn from Dusseldorf, Dusberg. and Rueh- rort in the area which were occupied last spring as penalties for Germany's ncn-fuihlment of the peace treaty's terms.
 Premier Briand Is understood to fa- vor limiting the work of this council meeting to the Upper Silesian question. over the procedure regarding which France and Great Britain have just reached a working agreement. while Premier Lloyd George is said to prefer ! that an questions pending in the rela- tions of the allies with Germany be taken up. These would include the subject of reparations. in connection with tentative accord payments to France by Germany in kind. reached be- tween Louis Loucheur. French minister l for the devastated regions. and Dr. Walter Rathenau, Germany minister of reconstruction.
 The Upper silesian question will. ac- ccrding to the agreement between | France and Great Britain. come up first beginning with discussion of the rein. forcepent of the allied troops of occu. patton. Other possible subjects for dis. cussion are the Near Eastern question as modified by the. hostilities between the Greeks and the Turks. the Russian problem the trials at Leinsic of tho Germans accused Of war crimes and thu possibility of action by the allies in viev of the fact that the punishments metes out by the German court are insufielen
