THOROUGHLY exasperated and
l. disguised with the actions of the
Russian soviet government, the Brit
ish government has sent a peremptory
note to Moscow which, in the opinion
of competent observers, is almost GER
tain to result in rupture of relations.
Indeed, it is more than limited that
this is what the British really desire.
Lord Curzon's note demands that
within ten days the soviet government
give satisfactory assurances concern
ing propaganda, admit liability for
various offenses against British sub
jects and ships and undertake to pay
compensation for these offenses, and
unequivocally withdraw the two COM
munications framed by the soviet gov
eminent in reply to the protests
handed to the Moscow foreign office
by the British representative, Robert
Nj. Hodgson, in connection with the
recent religious prosecutions. The
note specifically states that the Brit
ish government has no intention Of
embarking upon controversy with the
soviet concerning the accuracy OF its
charges, which it asserts rest upon
unimpeachable authority"

economy in expenditures and the
process Of gradually reducing the pub

Il Dbl was
l. much vexed because France and
Belgium rejected the German repara-
lions offer without consulting the other
allied powers, and at the close of the
week it sent to Berlin it's own reply
to Cuno's program, with the alleged
support Of Italy. This note, it Is I'M
derstood, held that the offer Is insult
ficient and that Germany has been
culpably taetless on the question of
the Ruhr, hat that Cuno's propositions
show that Germany is willing to pay
and they should be the basis Of re-
newed discussion on plans for final
settlement. This British note was not
at all pleasing to France, which still
insists that reduction of her demands
on Germany is wholly contingent on a
scaling down Of Frances war debts.
Her position Is thus set forth in for
eign Office statement:
This government has always con-
sidered the interallied debts as an in
tegral part Of the worlds economic
problem and therefore indissolubly
linked with reparations. Any reduc-
ton Of our reparations claim Of 81 per
cent of the ,OO0,0OOOOO gold marks
1888, O0O, O00,O0O) fixed by the London
agreement Of 1921 must be accompa-
MED by corresponding reductions in
our debts to the allied and associated
powers"
Washington, naturally, is officially
silent on the proposition that America
shall look to Germany for payment Of
the war debts to this country of
France and Belgium; but unofficially
the idea is received with no more
favor than when it was first preached
many months ago.

UNITED STATES District Judge

United STATES District Judge
~ John G. Knox in New York has
dealt something Of blow to the Vol
stead law by handing down an opinion
holding void that section Of the act
which limits to one pint every ten
days the amount Of liquor which a
physician may prescribe for patient.
The court held that this limitation
puts a restriction on sick persons not
intended in the eighteenth amendment.
Death might even result from depriv-
ing a sick person Of liquor at critical
periods, the court points out.
TN ANNUAL convention in New
/ York the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States took three i'm

chamber as whole adopted resolu-
tion urging it's members, civic bodies
and the public in general to engage
quickly in a united effort to restore
the railroads to sound and profitable
position in "the forefront Of American
business"
Second, the chambers committee on
governmental relations to transporta-
ton, headed by George A. Post, pre-
scented a report in which the belief
was reiterated that the roads should
be owned and operated by private cap
ital under government regulation.
Third, the report of the COMMITTEES
on railroad consultations, headed by
Carl R. Gray, president of the Union
Pacific system, urged a general con-
solidation of all roads into possibly
twenty great systems, but specifically
maintained that such a merging of
facilities should not be allowed to af.

MRS. ALEX MCCALL, Sec'y.

Editor of Democrat To-day our
nation, our state and our county are
carrying an enormous debt which
throws a heavy burden of taxation
upon the people. Can we afford a
high salaried farm agent and lady
demonstrator? 1t looks to me that
our worthy officials should strive to
relieve US of our already heavy taxes
instead of adding more to our bur
den. Our schools instruct our chill
dren in the rudiments Of agricul-
ture and home economics. The ag-
riculture department at Washing
ton distributes bulletins to our
farmers, covering all phases of their
industry. The agricultural maga-
zines give him an abundance of in
formation along all lines Of his
work. And his own application or
experience teaches him. Couldn't
the farmers and their wives in this
enlightened age educate themselves
in their industry? Our most pro-
gressive farmers are doing so. What
they need is a relief from heavy
taxes, so they can improve their
farms, pay off their debts, buy i'm
proved machinery, etc. Our farmers
and their wives are economical. Let
our worthy officials practice the
same economy in their admlnlstra-
ton. and we will soon see mark
ed change in the farmers condi-
ton. A tax payer.

urday it lowered the import duty on
sugar from 1857 cents to 1887
cents pound. Possibly that was
only a beginning. BY lowering the
tariff barrier, sugar imports can
more easily enter the country and
bear down prices. The Canadian
government means business. Our
government is merely carrying on
a farce by appealing to the supreme
court a petition for an injunction
that was in it's inception nothing but
a cheap bluff for political ends.

young men.
Take the parents point of view!
What are the parents going to get
out of it?
How many mothers and fathers
are worrying about their boys foI
the summer? How many are think
ing of the expense to them of their
boys vacation? How many are
thinking of how best to provide
proper associates for their boys and
give proper vents to the pent-up
feelings of youths who have been
restrained through their school and
other work?
All this worry and thinking are
solved by Uncle Sam in his Training
Camps provisions. And parents
thirty days they need not worry nor
think about their boys welfare and
they should get down on their knees
and offer up thanks every night that
they have government that in it's
camps will surround their boys with
every moral safeguard and that will
return them home with keen minds
in sound bodies, much more obedi-
ent to their wishes, with relish for
work, with respect for authority,
with a broader knowledge Of men
from other states and walks of life,
and with a greater capacity and
ability for the battle of life, and
with due sense of responsibility to
home, community and nation. Here
is the one month when parents can
be assured that work and play are
reasonably combined and when they
can dismiss from their minds the
ever-recurring worries and thoughts
that have found expression in such
words as "Where is my wandering
boy tonight?" He will be sleeping
the sleep of the healthy young ami
maxwell cared for in body and
mind and conscience and soul.
Will this be blessing to parents?
The answer can safely be left to anx-
ious mothers and fathers.
1t all seems too good to be true
and consequently some good souls
are skeptical about it. It is hard
for them to realize that America is
willing to do so much for it's youth
without parents having to pay for it
in hard cash. 1t is absolutely true
just the same as your congressman
who helped provide the funds can
tell you-as your school principals
who keep abreast of knowledge can
tell you-as your ministers, priests,
clergymen and rabbis who are deep
ly interested in the moral welfare of
the youth of America can tell you
Parents do not yet realize the new
spirit that is pe-meating America
The new sense of responsibility it
feels towards it's youth of America is
to preserve its ideals and secure the
blessings of liberty to ourselves and
our posterity.
The camp at Camp Knox, Ken
lucky, near Louisville, between July
27 and August 25, where we will
train these youngsters of II to "A
years of age will be open to visit
and inspection by all citizens of
America. Come and see for your
selves congressman, teachers, min
listers, parents, what we do for the
boys with good fun, good sports,
good companionship, good training,
TO make them into better sons, bet
ter citizens, better men.

Citizens Military Training Camps

Citizens Military Training Camps
From whatever point of view you
consider it young America should
Jump at the chance to go to camp
this summer for thirty days vaca-
ton at no expense whatever to the
individual.
Take the personal view point.
What is the young man going to get
out of it? Is he interested in the
greatest blessing of life good
health? He'll get ii there and learn
besides how to preserve his good
health through good health habits.
Is he interested in physical de-
velopment and in outdoor sports
and exercises? He'll get them there
to his hearts content and under the
supervision of trained instructors,
with no expense to himself. Track
events, tennis, golf, baseball, volley-
ball, push-balI, mass games of all
kinds, boxing and wrestling.
Is he interested in amusementso
There are dances with charming
young ladies under proper chaper-
onage. There are trips on the river
and to attractive places in the vi
cinity, like Lincoln's Home, Nam
moth Cave. To Louisville with its
parks and swimming pools. There
are movies in camp and on Satur-
day afternoons and Sundays there
are visitors day when parents, rela-
tives and friends are welcome to see
the camp and its life.
Is he interested in learning useful
things to benefit him the rest of his
life? He can learn about the great
outdoors, horses, harness, stables,
messes, camps,-how to shoot-how
to live-how to break down preju-
-patience-obedie to
make his will fit in with that of 9TH
ers with the minimum of friction
how to get results through team
play-how to lead others and there
by become leader of men-how
to make allowance for the feelings
and opinions of others-how right
ly to provide vents that accord with
social standards for the caveman
that exists in every one of us-how
in other words to become better
man.
Is he interested in becoming a bet
ter citizen? We make him such by
teaching respect for authority and
for law and order-by talks on the
constitution and the fundamentals
of citizenship-by ceremonies in
which our flag, and our National
Anthem daily fgure-by inspiring
him with love for the institutions
that have made and are making
America what it is-and that will
encourage him 10 do his bit as a,
maker of the flag.
Are these personal advantages
sufficient to justify youth in CIV
ing month of his time to secure
them at no expense to himself? The
answer can safely be left to the
