Nn WAR. HATREDS

Lloyd George has declared that although the allies called the Genoa conference, they are not thereby en- titled to run it, but every nation, including Russia and Germany, has an equal place. He maintains that an economic conference is not the place for war hatreds. He has a tough job, says a correspondent, ito surround 34 nations with that atmosphere, but he is going to try his best" If Lloyd George can put over that one thing-can make the other 33 nations realize that they must please park their razors at the door" and sit down to work as hnsi- ness men engaged on the solution of business problems for the good ot lthe business of all present, not as warning and prejudiced nationals he will have accomplished the great purpose of the conference.
 If the nations of the world will
 stop fussing long enough to learn
 how to cooperate with each other
 | in running the business of the world
 with some mild degree of efficiency
 and common sense, a great step for
 ward will have been made in the

 Not for a generation can anyone tell just what are the effects of prohibition. Too many criminals of today have an alcoholic heritage. Most of the feebleminded have a similar history. Until a generation is functioning whose parents never saw @ saloon, never knew the taste of highly alcoholic beverages, there is no way of estimating the effects.
 Transition periods are different things. A transition in the physical tastes of nation is a peculiarly difficult one.

puzzLING EUROPE.

A banker and the export manager of a large oil company, recently returned from a study of European conditions, report that Germany IS extremely busy. They found many factories working at night, ana were told that there are hardly 175,Ooo workmen idle in the whole country.
 "Au Europe is a puzzle, said the banker MT. J. C.. Geddes. A trip through Europe raises more ques- tions than it answers. It creates confusion of impressions. There IS so great a diversity of conditions. You see the Europeans furlousiy going somewhere, but none can say whither.''
 This busy-ness of Germany was one of the puzzles. "The Germans have orders on their books when will require them to go into the worlds markets for materials to a larger degree than they have done. Ont of this condition some improve ment in international trade may come''
 Russia was another matter per picking everybodys mind.
 MT. Geddes found the same sit nation obtaining in Europe in re gard to the Genoa conference which Sir Phillip Gibbs reported as hold ing in the United States-the men of business were disappointed at America's failure to take part in the conference. They have the feeling that the strong hand of America coming in from outside the muddle !. wifi fevgntualiy' De reddifed 1before 1aatters are put in order.

DOING ONE THING WELL.

John D. Rockefeller Jr praising John D. Rockefeller ST. may not be altogether convincing, but it is Icertainly hard to find a flaw in the business policy described by the son in a recent Bible class talk.
 If there is one thing above all others l admire my father for" he said, ''it is that in the great busi- ness he has built up he has always Iapplied the principles of sticking to that business and building it up.
 He has never attempted to go Unto a thousand undertakings, in which he has been offered many at |tractiye opportunities. have al ways thought that his application to one thing at time was one of the signs of my fathers greatness of mind. He has been interested in many other things, but he has kept his attention oentered on one thing"
 Is this not true of every great Oi LII every small DuSl- hess which is conspicuously success ful-that it has been built up by some man who made it his foremost interest? Likewise of professional and artistic success.
 We read now and then of a Leon 'ardo da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin or a Hugo Stinnes who seems to disregard this rule; but such men are rare, and imitation of them is full of risk, especially in an age of specialization. The genius is usually person who, instead of try ing to do everything well is con tent to do one thing better than anybody else.
 What looks like "brilliancy' is often only scatter brainedness. Many "a man who might have made great success is frittering away his talent by scattering his energies instead of concentrating and sticking to the one thing to which he first commit ted himself.

RSpardinp Tax PaYments.

The statutory time for the pay ment of taxes without the assess ment of penalties expired last Mon day, April 10. Under the provisions of the proclamation issued March 28 by Governor McRae collectors are directed not to collect the prescrib- ed penalty of 25 per cent for non payment of taxes until after June ,. It is provided in his proclama- tion, however, that If all the said taxes and costs due on any tract of land or lot shall not be paid on or before said fifth day of June, 1929, the same shall be sold for the payment of the taxes, cost and pen atty, as if this proclamation had not been issued"
 In the supplementary statement issued Saturday, Governor McRae said that he had merely exercised his executive power in attempting to perform a service for the people of the state who may not be pre- pared to pay their taxes within the time prescribed by law. The suspension of the penalties for thQ period of two months is for the re- lief of the taxpayer.

LEVINE AND LLOYD GEORGE.

Russia is arrived at Genoa AL least, certain gentlemen presumlnS to represent that sad and hungry country are there and made their presence known by a beautiful Bol- shevik buster.
 .Nothing but complete recognl- tion will satisfy Russia" is part of the loud noise A long bill to he presented to the allies forms what may be known as a drone bass to the strident melody
 Lloyd George, bearing the chief burden of civilization, is figure to be watched and encouraged. He anticipated such moves, and seems to be countering them cleverly~ He realizes that it is merely the Oriental trading method which he is up against-the method of asking a huge price at first, far in excess or the one eventually expected.
 France has given her full approval : of the Lloyd George program in re- gard to Russia. but has sent no major representatives to support him. Individual Americans approve the program, but officially America has no voice The little Welshman is in position of unusual and ex- tremely ticklish responsibility.
 Most of the intelligent and pro gressive-minded people in the world, however, are betting on Lloyd George.

 nounce They Cannot Compete Witia This Sec

By CLIO HARPER,

Special Correspondent Of The Dat's
 Press and Tri-Neeitly SoIiphoneD
 Little Rock, April 14.-The South produces the cotton and Arkansas is one of the leading states of the Union in the production of the worlds staple. The far-seeing tex tile manufacturers of New England are beginning to realize that if the Southern people seize the oppor- tunities within their grasp, they cannot longer compete with the South in the manufacture of cot ton fabrics.
 Virgil c. Petite, President of the Arkansas Advancement Association has received lettor from one oi the leaders in the textile industry of the North, in which he makes the statement that cotton mills here after will be built in the South. The writer says This is a settled fact. New Bedford manufactures re- gently visited him and assured him that the factories are all coming South. "They cannot compete with the South," says MT. Pettie's cor respondent, "and you have the fin est cotton here in Arkansas grown anywhere. l don't see why you shouldn't have several hundred cot ten mills and knitting mills in tine state and you will have; they fol low the power. That is what start ed them in North Carolina. How ever, there were already some mills using steam power and are some vet, but not where they can get water power They are building mills faster than they can get the power over there. l have been telling the people around here that the power dam is one of the great est things that ever happened to Arkansas in the way of bringing industrial plants. When you get your power here, Arkansas will begin to build up with manufactur- ing industries. l don't see Why you shouldn't have several good fur niture factories. You have plenty of fine oak timber and the fac tories will come when cheap power is assured"

BOOZE AND CRIME

Booze always did cause crime It is still causing it. The crime of the present day is not all due to bootleg booze, either. Much of 1t is a direct inheritance from the days when the real old stuff flowed freely and the saloon was more accessible than the movie or drug store
 The hoWls against prohibition dc not come from agencies concerned with crime and it's prevention. They do not come from the heads oi orphan asylums or from visiting nurse associations or probation off cers or charity associations Watch and see. The work of these people has been made easier by prohibition

CHICAG0AES DEBATE
 ARBUCKLE'S FUTURE

Chicago, April 14.-"Fatty" ArbucIle come back on the motion picture screen, as he has done in a court of law?
 This question was asked of several Chicagoans yeserday and opinion IS about evenly divided.
 The Rev. Johnstone Meyers, pastor of Emmanuel Baptist church, is positive the fat comedian cannot come back. He says 8 jury has found Ar buckle not guilty of murder, but the tnal exposed a life of debaucherv and people seeing hlm III pictures will not be able to shake out the memory of his licentiousness. Dr. Meyer cited thes case of Jack Pickford, who has not been featured since the tragic death of his wife, Olive Thomas. He also cited the cases of Beverly EaJne and Francis x, Bush man, who no longer appear in pictures and Mary Miles Min ter, whose films have been barred from several cities since the murdcr of William Das- mond Taylor.
 Beatrice Forbes Robertson Hale, lecturer, actress, took an entirely different view. She insists the private life of an actor or actress does not mat ter. It is the life they depict upon the screen that counts.
 Mrs. Bernita Mccormick, head of Chicago's moving pic turc censor bureau, said fu- ture Arbuclsle films would be judged strictly on their merits and nothing else. She said any attempt 70 capitalize the death of Virginia Rappo would result in cenfiscation of the picture.
