Failure Of Renal In Soviet Interests
Brings Russian Protests.

Observation-Disclosures between
Angora and Moscow are becoming
strained owing to the failure of Mus

the b~olsheviki's participation In the
near east conference. Although the
rumor that the soviet ambassador at
Angora demanded his passports for
his return to Moscow Ii not true and
Russian troops concentrated In the
Caucasus are not advancing toward
Trebizond, II is not denied that the
reds fear the Turks may sell them out
to the Allies.

Rome-The Italian cabinet, headed

towns. They are now masters OF some
OF the chief towns, including Florence.

The king, who arrived in Rome, re-

monarch q detailed report ON the
situation. He told the king that all
measures had been taken to endeavor
to prevent any attempt being made

to repress any disorders that might

THE PASSING OF WOODEN
PASSENGER COACHES

The wooden passenger coach is rap
idly passing soon to be placed among
the antiques as far as the present day
operation of railroads is concerned.
And the introduction of steel coaches
on all rail transportation lines can
not be accomplished too soon. In a
number of states steel coaches are
used almost exclusively and it is said
that the wooden model will soon be
thing Of the past.

passengers, with the result that not
a single fatality occurred. A wooden
car: placed in the center of train
made up of steel coaches, is invariably
crushed to smithereens in the event
of collision.
Except on the short lines, like tine
old wood burner locomotives, the
wooden car will be in disuse within
the next decade, according to railroad
authorities, who realize that it cannot
be replaced any too soon.
A report published by the Public
Service Commission of the State of
Pennsylvania shows that wooden ears

ed by steel cars. The steel cars re

ANOTHER IRISH POTATO DISEASE
(By r, d. Miller.)

(By H. u. Mlller.)
Truckers and gardeners over the
country are having quite a bit of
trouble with what is known as pota-
to wart. The Irish potatoes have warts
on part or all of their outside sur
face. These mar the appearance of
the potatoes and render their sale
difficult. Although the potato wart
disease doesn't appreciably affect the
food value or paIatability of the po-
tato, yet it is very Objectionable.
Potato wart is a fungous disease

PARTISAN PUPPETS:

Announcement that Henry Ford re-
fuses to accept the counter proposal
passed by the house military COM
mittee for the Muscle Shoals projects
occasions no surprise to those famil-
lar with the dilly-dallying tactics of
both the senate and house commit
tees having the disposal of these gi.
gantic power plants in charge.
It was palpable from the beginning
that these committees, or a majority
of their members, are determined to
defeat Ford in the acquisition of these
government owned properties. Not
because his offers have not been ac-
ceptable, but for the reason that if
he does get possession of them it
would. mean the certain humiliation
of the Fertilizer trust and conduce to
the prosperity of the Southern farm
err Upon the fimsiest pretext, these
committees revise these proposals,
one after the other, as soon as the
Detroit manufacturer meets them.
They have now gone to the limit,
knowing that their counter proposal,
in which the Gorgas steam plant is
to be divorced from the other proper
ties would meet with the prompt re-
1usal of MIR Ford to entertain it. And
that, no doubt, puts an end to any
possibility that he might acquire the
properties.
1t is a small thing for a committee,
composed presumably of big men, to
permit themselves to resort to futile
dalliance when the interests of the
people of this nation are involved in
an investment made by their own gov
eminent. An interminable series of
committee meetings, Investigations,
an inspection tour to Muscle Shoals,
consideration of other than Mr.. IFords,
proposals have resulted in an absurd
counter proposal, made deliberately
to bring about prompt refusal to
accede to it's provisions. A very
small thing to do.
But will this be the end of this
farce? Haven't the people of this
country a. voice in a proposition that
vitality concerns them, or are their
protestations to go unanswered? Are
they to be repealed by these oligar-
chical committees, body and soul I'M
der the domination of trusts? They
have assumed the attitude of those
political hirelings who are brazen
enough to cry out, ito hell with the
people"
The defeat of Mr.. Ford causes no
surprise No sane man, to say moth
ing of one of the greatest financiers
in this country will permit a congress
sional committee to dictate every pro-
in which millions of dollars are in
volved. If the Muscle Shoals plants
were located in a section north of
the Ohio river, and Henry Ford a Re-
publican, not a Democratic contestant
for the senatorial seat of Newberry,
these committees would not be quite
so arbitrary in making counter pro-
posals that would defeat the acqui-
sition of these properties by the best
bidder. Those partisan piddlers and
puppets have had their day; it is high
time that the people nave theirs.
