FINISH NEWPORT'S
 BIG LEYEE AND WALL
City Is Now Amply Protected From Danger of White
 River Overflows

Newport, May 1.-NeWport' S new levee, which has been un- der construction for two years, and was finished last week, was formally turned over to the directors Friday afternoon by the w. H. Denison Construc- ton Company, in the presence of officers and citizens, who assembled at a point on the levee near town.
 The finished levee is a source of pride to Newport, as well as d releif, for no fear is now felt of flood waters that nave on two occasions in the past caused great damage to prop erty. Connecting the dirt levee is a long wall of concrete which  borders the river front and is said by the contractors to be the third of it's kind in the United States, the other two being at Galveston, Texas, and Cairo, III.
 The wall is solid concrete with reinforced steel, and from four to ten feet high. The work was done under the direction of the Morgan Engi- neering Company of Memphis.

FOR COUNTY TREASURER
Burt Arnold Will be Candidate
 for Reelection

In the proper column of to- days paper will be found the announcement of Burt Arnold as q candidate for re-eelction as county treasurer.
 There are not many men in Independence county, who have more friends than Burt Arnold. There are several reasons for this. Mr. Arnold, CT Burt, as we all prefer to call him, has served the peo- pie in various official capaci- ties and has always made good. Another thing the people admire about Burt Ar rold is his grit. For several years, he has suffered from physical ailments that would have put an ordinary man lon the shelf A stroke of par alysis several years ago made him a cripple for life. It laid him flat of his back for sever al months, and it looked like he was goner. But there are two things it did not do. It cid not take the sand out of his gizzard nor the sunshine out of his soul. With only these two things left, Burt has made a winning fight that is worthy of the admiration of every man, woman and child in Independence county.
 A man is never down and out until he thinks he is, and Burt Arnold is a splendid liv- ing example of this fact. We admire him because he has sand in his gizzard and we are for him for anything that he wants.

LONOKE BOY MAKES
 A HERO OF HIMSELF
Saves Life of Himself and Baby Brother When Train
 Smashes Auto

Lonoke, May Little Jim mie Reed made himself q big hero here Sunday about noon..
 Jimmie, 12-year-old son gf Mr. and Mrs. James, B. Bed, and his ore year old brother, accompanied by Wayne Swain aged l2, Were trying o1t Mr. Reeds new Ford cal. They started across the railroad track two blocks west of the station when the engine ceased to function. Looking up the track, Jimmie saw fast Rock Island passenger train No. 45, approaching at 6 terrific speed.
 Seizing the baby brother, Jimmie threw the youngster out of the car. He landed in mud puddle. Then Jimmie and Wayne jumped. Before they alighted, the train struck the Ford and splintered it, parts of it being thrown high into the air. Jimmie, the baby and Wayne all escaped with out q scratch. A moments de- lay would have meant instant death to all three.
 The accident occurred after the churches had dismissed, and several hundred people saw it. Some women tainted. Men rushed over to search for the bodies of the little fellows. There was no need however for all three were very much alive. Baby Reed was crying, but only from fright He appar- ently wasn't very much pleas ed with the mud bath.
 Mr. Reed bought the car a few days ago.

SCHOOL ELECTION IS
 IMPORTANT MATTER
Citizen Offers Suggestions For Voters in Coming lmpor-
 tant Event

Editor Journal.-The third Saturday in May comes soon and there is a feeling of re- sponsibility with every pro- gressive citizen.
 In a general election, we may get excited over some candidate who is willing to commit suicide for the good of his country, but in the annual school election our interests come right to our door step.
 We hear about education being the safeguard of our liberty Then, certainly, the hand that directs our schools should be brave and strong. It is no play-party job to be the leader in our schools. It is a whole job, and big Job.
 In electing the members of the County Board of Educa- tion, it seems fair and best to have different localities of the county represented on the Board. As it now stands. there is within a radius of three to five miles of Newark, three members of the board, while i'll other parts of the county within a radius of 20 or 25 miles, there is no repre- sentation on the Board.
 There are a number of good citizens in our own To- cality who would do honor to the cause of education, if placed on the board. Some of them are Jesse l.. Mcdaniel, C.. r. Pickens and c. A. Reaves. There are others that could be mentioned, but either of the above would do well.
 In a recent number of an agricultural paper, the editor had the following in regard to the last of the old battleship Iowa.
 "Soon the great battered hulk of this vessel will rest on the bottom of the sea on which it probably floated. The great state for which it was named will go on and on, progressing and producing. To build an- other battleship such as the Iowa would cost many millions of dollars. Think what it would mean if this money could be devoted to the estab- lishment of schools, hospital, churches or roads, making pos sible a larger and fuller life for the boys and girls of to- day-the men and women of tomorrow.

Finance Minister TIermes and the Rep
arati0n Commission
The optimism of the last few days is
not shared in official circles, where the
impression still prevails that the Ger
mans will do only what is necessary
and prolong the negotiations, The eli
max will come only after the delibera-
tious Of the Rcparation Commission
which, in case of final default by Ger
many, probably Will require q fort
night or longer until just about the
time Of Premier Polncaro's visit to
Lordon for the Verdun commcmora-
tiOn.
This trip was arranged some time
ago without reference TO politics. but
it is regarded as unlikely that the
French Premier win return from Lon
don without seeing Mr.. Lloyd George
and exchanging views on the situation.
Diplomatic negotiations between the
Allies, whether opened in this way or
otherwise, would take several weeks,
so that action, if my, probably would
be deferred until some time in July.

Hayward Approves Statement

Major CIark's explanation of the
matter, issued with the authority of
Colonel William Hayward, United
States Attorney, said;
The j. B. Young, a small British
schooner, was found in distress by a
pilot boat just outside New York Har-
Dor on November /, 1921. Her CAPTAIN
had deserted, her crew knew nothing
of navigation, and she was short Of
food and water. She had 300 cases Of
liquor on board, the balance Of a
cargo Of 1900 CAGES The rest had been
landed partly by the John Gully in
Brooklyn and partly by small boats
which were not apprehended
There was no proof of unloading
within twelve miles of the coast, and
the only grounds for libelling the yes
sci and cargo were the failure TO mani
fest the cargo and the transportation
of liquor in New York Harbor. In
view of the fact that the vessel came
IN in distress, both these cases Of for
texture were extremely doubtful. 1t
was, in fact, the weakest case of rum
runner that we have had.

colonel Fielder appeared in the case.
wrote to the Collector demandjno that
the vessels papers be turned over to

issued statement yesterday to the
effect that the vessel was released by
the Department of Justice on the ad-
vice of the State Department.
On Thursday Senator Watson read
in the Senate a letter written by a
man in New York, who declared that
Daugherty released the J. Is. Young
after d conference with Thomas 3.
Fielder. Friday Mr.. Watson read an
other letter, which, he said, came from
the same source, and which said, in
part;
Add TO what you have already said
that the District Attorneys Office in
New York recommended criminal pros
ecutlon and confscation of the cargo.
yet Daugherty wired to release the
ship. The J. B. Young is matter of
record in the District Attorneys Office.
and it might be good idea to ask
MAJOR Clark, who is handling the case
IN the District Attorneys office, for the
facts"
