The New Diplomacy.

|ZECHO-SL keeps an agricultural
attache at her legation in Washington. This
is an original idea, believe, in diplomacy 1t is
commendable. Most OF the legations here maintain
military and naval attaches. Some have CONNER
cial attaches. But never before have we heard of
a farmer attache.
The United States should welcome any num-
Der of such diplomats. We understand that the
army and navy ENJOYS are in Washington pr-
marily for social purposes. Their uniforms add
color and dignity to diplomatic functions Their
names and titles look we'll in the social register
But what useful purpose do they serve?
The Bohemian agricultural attache will on the
contrary, function practically as we'll as socially
There is much to be learned from observation in
the United States which will benefit Czecho-
Slovakian farmers The department of agricul-
tnre at Prague is much more important than the
war department The same holds true everywhere
for that matter, but few nations have been able to
appreciate the fact
The present government of the new republic
IS devoting praiseworthy attention to internal
development. While some of the neighbor nations
are dreaming of imperial greatness to be brought
about through armies this government dreams of
the day when ten blades of grass will grow where
only grew before
The Czech people, split between Germany and
Austria, have had difficult struggle before win

Slovakian farmer attaches presence in Washington
by series of articles he has prepared on what the
government actually has accomplished in agricul-
tural lines. The start was made by land reform
laws which have been characterized as radical sby
folks attached to the old regimes. But they are

cultivate them and TO create body of free farmers

ANk CORPS POST NO. 10, AMERICAN
LEGION, has inaugurated movement
= to bring the 1923 convention of the legion
to Washington. 1t is laudable and patriotic
enterprise and deserves the unstnted support Of
every person and organization in the city. With
out doubt it will have this support.
In the past the District has offered induce
ments for conventions unrvaled by any other
city. In point of accessibility, beautiful and his
toric scenery and interesting glimpses of the ma
chinery of government there could be no COM
petition. For these reasons, alone great national
organizations without number have awarded the
convention palm to Washington and the success
with which the city has discharged its. obligations
and the generosity of its hospitality have carried
to the far corners of the nation the fame OF the
National Capital.
Only drawback has been encountered in
extending invitations for large gatherings-the lack
of suitable convention hall By 1923 this handi-
cap will have been overcome and Washington
will have fine assembly place as any city
in the country. Add the new convention hall to
Washington's other attractions and we have an
unbeatable combination.
The resolutions adopted by the tank corps
post name committee to enlist the cooperation
of the Board of Trade, Chamber of Commerce.
Retail Merchants Association, and other bodies to
make inquiries to places for holding the con-
vention and for the organization of publicity ma
chnery for bringing the legionnaircs to Wash
ington.
The work of this committee should be COM
paratively easy. 1t is a foregone conclusion that
all civic and trade bodies will lend their support
to the project. Better than that, they will be
able to suggest ways and means beyond the scope
of the local legionnaires As to the meeting
place. the convention hall will answer that
question, and the third duty intrusted to the COM
rT7ifte will he ~ r.,
the trade bodies.
Watson B. Miller, department commander of
the legion, who is to be appealed to in getting
the combined support of all Washington legion
posts, be safely counted on to function 100
per cent.
In fact The Herald believes it speaks for a
united Washington in assuring the 1egionnaires
that every support will be given the plan to bring
the 1923 convention of veterans to the Capital.
This is the logical place for this convention and
by pulling together feel sure it can be OBJ

reform laws of the Slovakian republic repre-
sent happy compromise of all the parties-con-

The state is making strong efforts to promote
inland colonization. By assuring economic inde-
pendence to the landless, Bohemian colonists from
all parts of the world have been induced to return
Many of these are direct descendants Of the exiles
of the seventeenth century whose land was taken
away by the Hapsburgs.
Most important of all are the reclamation plans
already formed. Progress has been made many
of these. The country has nearly two million
acres of meadow land which has been almost
worthless for cultivation. The government has
appropriated about thirty million crowns for this
work during the present year. About one million
acres await Improvement.
Twenty-Five agricultural experiment stations
have BEEN established in Bohemia, Moravia and
Silesia--the three important subdivisions of the
republic. Besides these are a number of
agricultural colleges.
We do not hear great deal about the Czeche-

ITSELF More attention is paid to the development
of the countrys schools and the restoration of her
culture
Under such conditions the world can expect
great deal from Czecho-Slovakia. Her people
will eat better food, live in better houses and wear
better clothes than their neighbors under less
progressive governments. The country will more
than have justified its right to independence in the
family OF nations.
