BOY SCOUT NEWS

All Boy Scouts who would like to do
a good turn. will please lend an ear!
Down in the south somewhere. and
headed this way. is at least one
couple, newly mated. who would like
to be your guests for time this sum-
mer.
They do not require much room, and
they will prove happy and valuable
friends if you treat them with con-
sideration. They will have Travelled
thousands of miles to reach you. but
If their new home is not in order they
will just naturally have to look some
where else for shelter.
Boys, did you ever think that only
about half dozen kinds of birds are
friendly enough to accept your hos
pitaIity?
That's all. but they are the kind
that are we'll worth knowing, and in
clude bluebirds. chickadees, martins,
robins. woodpeckers and wrens. Some
of these. like Mrs. Jenny Wren, raise
as many as three broods in a season.
and demand a. fresh. clean house for
each brood, SO if you wish them as
guests you must give them the kind
of house they want: otherwise they
will go visit some other scout who Is
more hospitable. Take time by the
forelock. scouts and have every
thing in readiness for the little
feathered visitors soon to be with
you.

WAR IS BLAMED AS

New Haven Lawyers Express Opinions on Evils

New Haven, Feb 7.- That the in- crease In the number of divorce suits filed with the superior court Of thls county in the past four or five years k either directly, or indirectly, the re- ault of conditions brought about by tho war and not due, AS many people think, to laws which make divorce easy in this state, Is the opinion eN- pressed by court officials and lawyers,
 While IL is true that there has been q decided increase In divorce suits starting during the past nNe years" said one lawyer, "l do believe that 1t s also true that conditions are gradually. but surely being re- adjusted so that they arc now assum- ing d more moral aspect
 state Laws strict.
 The alarming divorce situation eA- isting in neighhoring states can sale ly be said no, to exist in Connecticut Tn the public statutes of the state there is not a single passage which makes divorce an easy proceeding II the necessary evidence and witnesses are not at hand. The laws are so construed as to make 1t qu'te dilticnlt for a petitioner to prove hlS or her case, thereby eliminating the possi- bility of cases being "framed" and de- crees easily secured.
 In many states only the presence or the petitioner is required at the trial, his or her evidence being taken for what 1t is worth and the decree elther granted or denied, according 10 dls- position of the court Lawyers called attention to the court of domestic re- lations in Chicago, where divorces were granted with machnellke pre- cjsion of "sausage meat being ground out of a machine"
 Must Have Witnesses.
 Tn any divorce action brought into the superior court in the state or Connecticut there must appear, in ad- dtion to the petitioner, at least two witnesses. This is true even Tn eX- narte or uncontested suits.
 The divorce laws of the state or Connecticut are not only so constl- t,lted as to make it very difficult for a. person to secure a decree. but are of such a nature as not to appear as

at the absurdity. Anyhow, the in
stance serves to impress on the minds
of those who would talk or write about
the fact that those
best acquainted with conditions in
different parts Of the country feel as
sured that the speaking of the Eng
lish language at all times is by no
means proof that the speaker is
Americanized however desirable it
may be that the English language
should be the language of this coun-
try.
The neighborly instinct between
the residents of any country helps
nightly to a better understanding.
Before attempt is made to American
ize, anyone attempting it should
thoroughly understand those he
would Americanize. If this We're done
there would be fewer attempts and
less talk. The American spirit ami
mated many OF every nationality
among our residents during the last
war, and association in the ranks
contributed to mutual respect and
better understanding. Such was one
of the priceless lessons of the awful
conflict. Surely it is not soon TO be
forgotten.

AN ENLARGED TARIFF COMMITS
SION

Much was expected of the tariff
commission when it was originated.
The result has been disappointing
The argument that such an impor-
tant matter as fixing a tariff should
be based on trustworthy and accur-
ate information is unanswerable.
Evidence that it would be so used
if the information were had is not
as strong and conclusive as well
might be wished.
Now Senator Freylinghuysen Of
fers an amendment to provide for
the making of a scie ntifc tariff. He
finds that the present commission
isn't large enough and has not at
its disposal funds enough to make
the exhaustive examination required
to ascertain that which it is essential
to know if we are to make a tariff
representing the difference between
the cost of an article in this country
and the cost in the country which
imports it, That's what should be
known if a tariff to protect our en-
ployers Of labor in this country in
paying American wages is to be
made.
The senator was on the commit
tee which framed the present bill.
He says he isn't apologizing for it
and adds: ITO my mind it is as good
a measure as could be prepared I'M
der the circumstances, and It
should be passed as quickly as pos
sible in order to remove from bust
ness the uncertainty that now ex-
lists"
He says, and there is no disput-
ing him, that it is impossible for
either Republicans or Democrats TO
pass tariff law under existing CON
ditions which will be adequate to
the needs of the country. Primarily
tariff making is "a matter of eco
nomics. not of politics" The de-
termination OF rates is properly a
subject for expert study and consid-
Grafton, he adds, and it Is all true.
Replying to the cynical view that
the tariff cannot he taken out OF
politics, he admits that the theory
OF what constitutes proper tariff
levies is likely to always remain a
political question, but the method OF
finding out the facts is not a politi-
cal matter, or shouldn't. be. 1t
should be possible for any American
taxpayer to obtain II he wished in
formation respecting the cost of an
article in another country as well as
the cost of it here. Whether ten
commissioners at $4,000 per annum.
q corps Of assistants and ample funds
for investigation would make such a
thing possible may be questioned but
the fair supposition seems to be that

State Primaries
North Dakota

bismarck, \. d., June n1.-With
party lines broken and disreearded
North Dakota Is approaching its
statewide primary June 18th with
the interest conferred in the struggle
between the present administration
ana the Nonpartisan League for the
contsol of the state government
Governor r. A. Nestos. the first gov
crnor i'll the history of the United
states TO be elected in recall cam
palgn. is heading the combination OF
Republicans and Democrats aligned
against the League. The latter is
marshalling its forces under the
name of Republican. the Democratic
fmcmbers Of the league signing IN as
Republicans for the purposes of the
primary.
The primary is strictly North
Dakota affair. While candidate
for United States senator is to be
elected, the league and anti-,eacue
battle enters into this and the So
lection of the senator is one of the
queerest angles ever presented TO the
people of state. Lynn j. Frasiar.
recalled governor, is the candidate
for the Nonpartisan League. Porter
j. NcCumber is n candidate to sue
coed himself, and Ormsby NcFTarg
of jamestown, n former private soc
rotary of Senator McCumber. is also
candidate.
According to political observers
t1p I, ma 10y
the trend Of national feeling. CON
ditions politically, they contend. are
too chaotic, the party label too easily
changed, for any stamp or pro or
anti to be declared from the result
Something of the tangled conditions
can be guessed from the fact that
the names of the same men appear
on petitions of candidates named for
Democratic and Republican Office.
No alignment has vet been made in
this potpourri of politics standing
one side or the other as CARRYING
the banner of. progress immobiity
or reaction.
Back of all these conditions trail
the years in which North Dakota
has been the experimental ground
for economic theories. theories
which needed political party label
tor funcuonin@, and still further
back, are the years in which North
Dakota was attempting to align IT,
self under the progressive banner
upheld at that time hy its near ma
tive son, Theodore RooseNelt.

MUSCLE SHOALS PROPAGANDA

While it is extremely difficult for
most of US to arrive at any definite
conclusions respecting just what Tn
Gle Sam should do with the Muscle
Shoals property it is easy to see
that some of the so-called publicity
being given to it is nothing more or
less than propa ganda.
The twenty-one members CT the
committee that had considerat ton of
the offer of Henry Ford for the prop
erty, an offer Of five million dollars
for a property which cost the Gov
crnment SS54S7, 600, was badly divid-
ed, there being four different reports.
One group denounces the offer.
Many of the Ford advocates, the
report says, are honest and consci-
entious but have been misled as to
points to the provision by which fer
tilizers would be manufactured and
ncts Li4dL titSlilc pei oASltIIL ItIJI -
that he will compel the fertilizer
manufacturers of the country to sell
their product at one-half Of what
they are now selling it," Mr.. Ford
does not agree to make fertilizers at
all unless he can make them with a
profit to himself.
The only thing that is kept before
the public the report continues, is
that he is to make fertilizer and sell
it cheaply to the farmer, only charg-
ing for himself a profit of per cent
ON the production. No one has ever
suggested how he could make fer
tilizers and sell them cheaply or what
means he would employ. The bold
claim is made, and Congress and the
country must take the statement as
absolute truth or be forever con-
demned by this crowd of wicked
propa gandists."
1t would seem that il the reason for
selling to Ford is because he pro-
poses to make fertilizers cheap he
should come under obligation to do
so. Nothing less would be good bust
ness. OF course if the Government
only wishes to dispose of the plant,
the case would be different.
