XXX. VISITS

Fifteen Knights Presents Pas
tor With Contribution
of $500

A large congregation had as
sembled at t h Methodist
Church Wednesday night for
the closing service of the
Revival. The choir had just rem
dered a beautiful anthem and
Rev. j. F. Campbell arose to be-
gin the service for the evening,
when fifteen Of those "silent
Knights" entered the front
door of the Church and walked
silently down the isles to the
alter. One of them went forward
and presented the preacher with
an envelope and as silently
they returned from whence they
came.
Rev. Campbell opened the
envelope and found three five
dollar bills and the following
note:
To Rev. J. F. Campbell and
the Congregation assembled at
the Methodist Church, Wiggins,
Miss. Sept. 6, 1922.
Dear Friende and Brothers:

Klan stands for pure Demo-
cracy, the strict enforcement Of

J. K. Mosby Klan No. 35.
Realm of Mississippi.
In speaking of the visit of the
Klan, Rev. Campbell said;
"Evidently there is something
in Virgins that the general
public does not know about, and
if there be a sufficient number
of good citizens in this order
and backed up by the principles
for which they stand it will mean
a better town and country"

Austria "is at last awake 20 tho ne

that country stated in letter to Nir-
gil G. Hinshsw. president Of the pro
hibtion foundation. made public in
Chicago. Mr.. Hinshaw visited Aus
triA last October in the interests Of
the prohibition movement.
"The Federal Minister for Social
Administration has allocated the sum
of S60O00.000 for this purpose the
letter continued. And the National
Council will pass law in accordance
with which this money will be en-
ployed. A big committee is in course
OF formation 20 which most members
OF the American-Austrian committee
will also belong. Altogether the gen
eral feeling at present in Austria Ia
favorable to the idea OF alcoholism
being fought by means OF public
measures.
Large sections Of the population
realize at last that a nation in the
present economic distress cannot afford
sueh a High rate Of expensive con-
sumption Of alcohol. and that. there
fore, all facilities for advancing this
consumption must be removed or re-
duced.

shall pave tho way for a comprehensive
prohibition of alcohol. or at least do

France to Ratify Treaty
To Disarm, Paris Believes
Washington Plan To Be Approved Despite Naval
Technicians and Excited Politicians,
Says Lauzanne

tlon FOR Europe Is in international CO.
operation. in which America occupies
nrst place. We will therefore vote for
ratification Of the treaty without reser-
vations or amendments"
II may be noted, however, that when
discussion Of the Washington treaty
takes place there is question in
which there will bo unanimity among
the French Senators and Deputies
that OF submarines. II Is most
fortunate that the treaty did not seek
to solve the problem, for the French
public opinion. notwithstanding its
good will, could not have followed
American opinion on that question.
French opinion willingly consents 70 a
fifth or sixth rank for the French navy
because France lacks tho means for
having any other and II does not see
any present danger on the seas. But
il holds to the submarine because II Is
a cheap engine, an excellent defensive
arm and chiefly French invention. 1t
may perhaps be interesting to note
that tho great British sailor Admiral
Wemyss understood Frances desire to
possess a large submarine feet and has
admitted the legitimacy Of this desire.
Submarine Idea Not Shared
France" he wrote recently, docs
not share Balfour's ideas on submarines,
and she is right In considering them
necessary TO her defense. II we take
her Mediterranean position into con
sideration, where her interests are en-
gagged everywhere and where her lines
Of communication are threatened by
several powers which are not neeessar-
lily friendly, II is not surprising that she
refuses TO give up any means whatso-
ever Of insuring her safety
This is clear categorical approval.
England and America aren't alone in
the world. There are other nations, and
among them some can be found which
are by no means angels Of peace. 1t
is against those nations that France
intends, II necessary, TO employ sub
marines. America must not be aston
ished. therefore, il when ratifying the
Washington treaty the French parlia-
ment insists upon France leaving
aside the offensive monsters which are
so expensive and maintaining at her
disposal defensive submarines which
cost so little.
