N pedestrian always hitherto has
been directed to go to the right.
This is popularity supposed to be a sur
vival of the days when every gentle
man wished to have his sword arm free
for immediate action, but as matter
of fact it is more probably merely d
manifestation of the independent
Anglo-Saxon temperament, which does
not like to be told where it must or
must not go.
One can picture the early Britons,
when some of their first kings estab-
.lished traffic rules, remarking that,
anyhow, they would go as they pleased
on the footpaths. They did. And they
DO. The notion that the pedestrian
keeps to the right issreally pure fall
lacy. He waEders all over the side
walks, as his untrammeled fancy die
tates.
But now some London municipal
authorities have been giving thought to
this matter of pedestrian traffic and
have decided that, after July |, 1922,
the man on foot as we'll as he in the
Aivver or the Rolls-Royce must set his
face sternly to the left.
The matter is complicated by the fact
that several London boroughs have de-
cided that they will have none Of the

Four Courts Looked Like
A Garrison Under Arms
During the days preceding the at
tack on O'Connor's stronghold the
Four Courts had all the appearance
Ct an armed garrison in war time.
The yard surrounding the buildings
was filled with heavily armed young
men in uniform, while the gates which
gave access to the inclosure remained
firmly barred. Thus isolated within
this citadel with his few but deter
mined followers, O'Connor responded
with defiance to the ultimatum of the

No Compromise Allowed
On English interests

To this the British reply that there
can be no question of COMPROMISING
interests, strategic and economic, in
so important a region as the south
coast of the Strait of Gibraltar. The
British contend, besides, that the An
glo-Egyptian agreement of last year,
establishing as it did a Monroe Doc
trinc for Egypt to be enforced by
British and Egyptians jointly, in no
way conflicts with the convention of
1888. France, however, does not need
to raise the question of Egypt for
England to agree to the question of
Tangier being reopened. That round
table conference upon it should be held
was first suggested on the initiative of
Spain, and England has supported this
view. Due to the meeting in London
between the British and French pre-
miers, it now has been arranged that
there shall be such a conference dur
ing the current month.
Frances desire to extend her sphere
of influence in Morocco to the Tangier
district in substitution for the pro-
posed international status is due to
several reasons. For one ching, the
proposed international status was an
unreal solution which could scarcely
be regarded as permanent. 1t was sug-
gested partly as means of saving the
face of Germany after her rebuffs else
where in Morocco. Now that German

ent locals. All of the Executive
Board of the Federation were present.
A number of the problems facing the
farmers of this district were taken up.
Along the line of taxes, it was
brought out that there are as many
taxes going to sale this year as last
or maybe more. Last year some $685.
600 of Phillips county land sold for
taxes, this $35, 900 costing the farm
ers Of that county $4,000 for the
first six months this year or since
they sold. The next six months it
will cost the farmer IS, $50 90 or a tot
al OF 81 per cent for the year. The at
should not demand their farm bor-
rowers to liquidate to such a point
that they cannot meet their taxes.
While there has been an over-credit
extended to great number of the
farmers in this section, the banks
should bear their share of the blame
for this existing condition and do their
part to help the farmer meet his taxes.
While the burden will fall on the
land owners, the result will be re-
Elected in all lines of business, as
Northeastern Colorado has risen thru
the efforts of the grain farmer to
position practically the highest in the
state as wheat producing country,
and the eastern man who is looking
for an Investment will soon turn to
other fields and we will be the loser of
his money and efforts here. The man
who has been making land loans here
will close his purse rather than open
it. The Federal Land Bank at Wich-
-ita, which has been making large
amount of loans to the farmers in our
territory, will direct them to part of
the country where the farmer can pay
his taxes. Where the local interests
will not force a land owner to the
point where few men with little
ready cash can sap the country to the
amount of II per cent year.
