Canon City. Jan. l.-The develop

Mr.. Jeancon, who has Travelled extcn-
siNcly in Europe, Asia and the Amer
lean continent is a great booster for
Colorado which he charactcrizcs as "A
vcrltable mass OF wonders and whose
wealth OF scenery, climate. soil. ruins
OF prehistoric life and fossil remains
are comparatively unknown and un-
touched.
Tho most remarkable thing In Colo
rado. according to Mr.. Jcancon. are
the ruins of the cliff dweiiers in
the southwestern part OF the state.
Here according TO the speaker was the
birthplace and cradle oc the oldest
form OF human culture found in the
United States. In II region about 200

ally thousands OF the homes OF these
ancient people, who later spread out
over parts OF Arizona, Utah and New
Mexico.
In speaking OF the origin OF the cliff
dwcllcrs. Mr.. Jeancon declared that It
was clearly established that their an

punch marks ou registration cards
which motorists in Florida are requir-
cd to carry with them. When a
motorist aroused the ire of traffic
officer through failure to obey signals
or by the cutting of corners, tho Of
ficer would demand tho drivers reg
istration card and for each violation
OF tho rules would punch IL. Every
motorist thus would carry his record
with him and when hailed into court
the judge would examine tho card and
ascertain thd number of times he had
violated tho law and been released
with reprimand from an officer. The
hardened offender would get the limit
while the driver with a good record
would be dealt with lightly.

ers Convention of the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce held In
this City January 10.
The combine. az proposed by G. F.
Bauer. Secretary OF the y. a. C. c.

large credit resources and lower the
overhead cost Of foreign trade in cars
and trucks in the following ways:
The credit of the export combine
would be greater than any single COM
pany or group. II could investigate
the financial rating OF foreign buyers
At small cost to each individual COM
pany Its resources would permit OK
tending credit to foreign markets on a
basis competitive with foreign coun-
tries.
Combination would mean much low
cred cost per company in docun ents-
tion. stenographic and translation
work. packing offices. ocean insur-
ancc, financing and research work.
Parts and repair stations could be es-
tnblished abroad on scale which
would be virtually Impossible under

For Future Needs Of Farmer.

A bill TO establish farm credits department
IN each Federal Land bank has been before con-
gress for more than two months. and Is now said
to be assured Of passage Its object. as made
clear by its author Senator Lenroot OF Wiseon-
sin. is to continue the work OF the War Finance
corporation. an emergency body which expires
July l. II comes in response 10 the demands OF
farmers for system OF credit adequate ior
handling LOANS running from six months 10 three
years, a period not dealt with by the Federal Re-
serve system
As now constituted the Federal Land banks
have no facilities for diseouniing ehai,el paper.
The Lenroot bill would establish new farm
credits department for which the federal treasury
would subscribe 100000 capital. Debentures
payable within three years would be issued on
the basis OF the niorgaged securities, these TO be
sold or rediseoun,ed TO provide further operating
funds
Each Federal Land bank would be authorized
10 discount Tor any national bank. state bank,
trust company incorporated live stock loan COM
pany or savings institution. with its endorsement,
"any note or other such obligation the proceeds
Of which have been advanced or used in the first
instance for an agricultural purpose or for the
raising, breeding. fattenng or marketing OF live
stock" Direct loans to any cooperative asso-
ciation composed Of agricultural producers would
be made il secured by warehouse receipts.
Numerous suggestions for amendment OF this
measure are being made. It probably is not per-
feet, but no doubt could best be improved in
practical operation. The cheering thing about
this bill is the evidence that the lessons Of the
late agricultural panic have not been cast aside.
The farmers are coming out Of the slough Of
despond, but their recovery gives no warrant for
ignoring the needs and perils Of the future

Chita May Ignite Siberia.

Matters in Siberia are moving. probably to-
ward definite adjustment Of something that will
lead to real government for that great country.
When the bolshevists took over Russia, they
naturally included Siberia in the territory they
were to control Between asserting and enforc-
ing their claim Lenin and Trotzky found such a
wide spread they were forced to be content with
ruling only the western portion OF the great EN-
pire, leaving the eastern two-thirds in the sus-
pended state of unfinished business"
Varying fostunes have attended an effort to
set up government at Vladivostok, where the
United States co-operated with Japan for time
in maintaining order. In the interim monde
script government has sprung up in a central
zone, with headquarters at Chita, which has the
tacit support Of the Moscow government, be-
cause Chita provides buffer between western
and eastern Siberia, has afforded fair base from
which to penetrate China, Thibet. Mongolia and
even India with red propaganda, and therefore
served useful purpose for the schemers of Mos
cow without assuming the proportion Of men
ace to their plans. Chta was present at Washing
ton, with some fantastic claims and even more
fantastic assertions 1t now is spreading eastward
into the region occupied by the Japanese, accom-
ranying its advance with such conduct as already
has produced clash between the red forces and
the Japanese troops
A very interesting situation is thus developed,
one that was anticipated in some of the discus
sions during the debate on the four-power treaty.
Japan's withdrawal from Siberia will probably
be forced, abandoning the country to bolshevk
control. Toxic authorities have expressed a
readiness to retire from Siberia, contending they
have held troops there only to protect life and
property from the reds. A definite move must
be made soon.

Prospectus of the Silver League.

That "Silver League" or some similar or
ganization to advocate bimetallism would be or
ganized might have been anticipated. As an in
cident Of the war the price of silver was little
more than doubled, and consequent profits to the
miners renewed activity in the production of the
white metal. Now that it is falling back, by a
very natural process, to the price determined by
its service, the effort to retain for it some part
of the departing profits is reasonable from the
standpoint Of its producers.
Establishing by statute law an artificial ratio
between the metals will have no more effect
than any similar endeavor to fix prices for other
commodities. The Gresham law is inexorable as
has been proven by all the ages. If the price Of
silver should be enhanced by natural economic
causes, the advantage would have natural re-
Election, but if it be brought to pass through the
interposition of statutory law or other similar
means, the effect is fictitious, and its reflection
on other commodities is equally so and the final
result will be disturbance without benefit Gold
as standard of value was fixed by the COM
merce Of the world, is not of modern develop
ment, but traces back to the farthest antiquity.
and rests on substantial basis.
"A silver ieaGue may revive interest III the long
time debate between the advocates of sound
money and those who hold to the fallacy that
any sort OF money will do. This, however, will
not disturb the relations between gold and other
substances, mineral or not, nor would the de-
monetizaton of gold be Of especial advantage to
the champions Of silver, for gold had value and
was used as medium of exchange before ever
there was money, or banking or anything of the

Civil Service and Party Politics.

A congressman who, on Monday offered a
proposal that all federal employees who do not
loyalty support the administration be sunimarily
dismissed from the service has probably per-
formed good action Not tina, his suggestion is
likely to be followed out, for its end is absurd.
but because by making it he has called attention
10 something that might be overlooked A fed
eral employe should not be required to resign
any OF his civil rights because OF his employment
lie should retain his party aifiliaton, and should
be free to take part in,potcs to the utmost Of
his inclination. Asserting this right, however,
he must have in mind always that when his
course becomes what was once so aptly charac-
terized by great democratic president as "per-
ricious," he has laid himself open to reprisal.
Kissing still goes by favor, no matter how
much we may try to close our eyes to the truth.
Nobody knows this better than the men and
women who are listed in the classified service.
The civil service law was established to protect
them against the ordinary mutations OF politics,
and consequently carried with it another obga-
ton, namely, that OF service. A purely political
cmployc, whose tenure of Office is fixed by the
fortunes OF his party, may not be expected to do
as much for the government as he does for the
party. One who has been given guaranty by
the public, however, is in return bound to give at
all times full and efficient service. He can not
lay down on the job, merely because he is under
civil service.
President Harding must be credited with
knowing what he is about If, on the recon-
mendation Of the secretary Of the treasury, he
orders the reorganization Of an important bureau.
startling as his action may seem, it is supposed
to rest on reason. Inquiry is demanded, and very
likely will follow, and the full explanation to
which the public looks forward, and to which
it has right, will come. Until then rumor and
conjecture will persist and, while waiting for the
final announcement it is not amiss to keep in
mind that the indignation of Senator Carraway
of Arkansas in part may be stirred by the fact
that James L. Wilmoth, the deposed chief Of the
Bureau Of Engraving and Printing, is from Ar
kansas.
A fact in favor of the presidents statement
that the change was made for the good Of the
service is that several Of the positions from
which the heads were removed were abolished
and many Of the others were changed in both
titles and duties.

Signs of Normalcy at Home.

Omaha is doing some things better. Chief
Salter OF the fire department reported on Mon
day a stretch of 1877 hours without an alarm of
fire. This period of time has not elapsed with
out movement of some part of the fire depart
ment's equipment in answer to an alarm for
many months No. it can not be taken as an in
dication that the city has suddenly resolved to
have no more blazes, but it is sign that little
care will help to materially reduce the number
of calls on the fremen.
The city health commissioner reports re-
markable decrease in the number of cases of con-
tagious disease as compared with the month OF
March, 1921 This, too, is sign of betterment.
Communicable disease is being watched closer
than ever; physicians checking up, and faith
ers and mothers are watching their children a
little closer. Efforts put forth by the authorities
