THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS.

In a recent address before the Vas
sar Club in New York, Henry Nor
ganthau, a Wilson Democrat and a
League of Nations partisan, made the
statement, according to the news
paper reports, that 'if the United
States had entered the League of Ma
lions, France would not be in the
Ruhr today"
All European Nations, with the eX-
ception Of Germany, are in the League
of Nations. Therefore, Mr.. Morgan
thau's statement, if it means any
thing, means that the United States
would have been able to accomplish
what none Of the nations or all of
them together in the League were not
able to accomplish. This checks it up
to the United States. To say that
had it been in the League of Nations
France would not now be in the Ruhr
is to say that one Sa& the following
three things would have been done by
the United States.
(D 1t would have guaranteed
France the payment of the indem-
nifty she seeks from Germany. That
is, the United States would have paid
the indemnity itself by underwriting
the German promise to pay. This
would have necessitated raising mon
ey in this country by the issuance of
bonds for which the American people
would have been taxed and these
bonds, or the money therefrom, turn
ed over to France in lieu Of the money
she was unable to collect from Ger
many.
(2) France would have been guar
anteed security from future attacks
from Germany by military alliance
with the United States. This is what
President Wilson attempted to have
done, going so far as to bring a treaty
to that effect to this country and ask
ing that it be ratified by the United
States Senate.
60 France would have been told
by the United States that she had col
lected enough; that Germany had paid
all that she could pay and ought tc
pay, and had France attempted tc
enter the Ruhr she would have beer
opposed by the military forces of the
United States.
These are the only three eventual.
ties that could have kept France out
of the Ruhr Which one of these
three solutions, if any, would the
people of the United States stanC
for? The answer is obvious. They
would have stood for none Of them
Mr.. Morganthau's assertion is ;
sample of the silly talk that is going
on continually. 1t is a sample of tn
vicious propaganda that is being cir

National Road through Western Ma
ryland is offered panorama of such
rare and varying charm that it is
constant dtlight and temptation to
linger for further enjoyment of some
delightful vista or majestic sweep of
mountain range.
The soft pastoral charm, the Cove,
on the road to Oakland, a few miles
west of Frostburg, is unexcelled Fur
Their on, st. Johns and Simpsons
Rocks, on the Big Savage, just out
side of Frostburg, are both show
places, while Dams Rock, six miles off
the main road, with view into three
states, from an altitude of 1900 feet,
gives thrill to the most jaded tour
list. Beyond Cumberland, a series of
gorgeous scenes eliminate at the top
of Sideling Hill where tourists always
park their cars to enjoy the far-fiung
panorama of valley and mountain
stretching in every direction.
When President Harding picked the
National Road over which to drive
last summer from Washington to
Marion, he gave the historis highway
much additional publicity. The great
est advertisement the old road has
had for years, however, will be the
travel over its entire length next
summer, from coast to coast, by the
National Shrine Touring Club.
Leaving San Francisco on May LIST,
this great Masonic body will make
pilgrimage across the continent
augmenting its size at every town
and village. Over 1000 Shriners will
be in this monstrous caravan when it
passes through Maryland. The Shrin-
ers have arranged to spend the night
of June at Cumberland and Frost
burg, utilizing both hotels and camp
ing grounds.
Many of these visitors will be ac-
commodated at the big auto camp
site at Frostburg. Here six acres of
beautifully wooded park has been con-
verified into one of the most attract
tive and best equipped auto tourist
camps in the country. Electric lights,
running water, a cook house, gas for
cooking, modern toilets, large out
door swimming pool and many other
attractions have made this camp fam
Gus. Last summer more than 1000
visitors stayed there from one night
to week.
Six miles east of Cumberland is
another well equipped camp ground,
and there are others located at var
ious places between Cumberland and
Baltimore. These camps are all OPP
Grated under the supervision of the
Maryland State Roads Commission.
In addition to furnishing every con-
venience, they are perfectly reputable
and well kept in every respect.
Whether the tourist from the west,
northwest or south, wishes to visit
New York or Canada, or make a pill
grimage to the Nations Capital, the
logical and direct route, as we'll as
the best way for him to travel, is
over the old National Road through
Maryland. West of Maryland the old
road goes through Wheeling, w. Va,
thence to GAINESVILLE, Columbus and
Dayton, Ohio, through Indianapolis
and Terra Haute, Indiana, to. st.
Louis.
Numerous roads branch from it in
every direction, both north and south.
Complete road maps and information
of any kind may be had by address
ing the Chambers of Commerce of
Frostburg, Cumberland or any other
town on the route through Maryland.

The Temperance Union Is
Against Home Made Wine
Local Chapter Says Many House
keepers Are Violating Law.

An interesting meeting Of the w.
c. T. U. was held at the Methodist
church on Monday. The meeting was
called to order by the president, Mrs.
R. E. Bell. The reports from the diff
ferent departments OF work were en-
couraging, especially the work among
the prisoners. An important discus
sion taken up was the making of wine
at home among housekeepers. 1t was
decided that a great many people
don't understand the law on this sub
ject. The law, however, prohibits the
making of any beverage that contains
any alcohol whatever. So, the house
keeper who makes fermented wine at
home is violating the law.
After the business meeting the pro-
gram was turned over to Mrs. ]. R.
Webb. The subject was Medical
Temperance and Health" Several in
teresting papers were read, bringing
forth the testimony Of very eminent
physicians that alcohol instead of be-
ing necessity in the practice OF
medicine is utterly useless and in
many cases detrimental.

KIT" HARRIS is
TAKEN BY DEATH
PASSED AWAY AT SANITARI.
UNI WHERE HE WAS UN-
DER TREATMENT.

Mr.. K. w. Harris, prominent and
popular resident of the southern part
of the county, died Friday morning
in hospital at Plains.
Mr.. Harris was carried to the SAM
tarium some weeks ago suffering from
severe attack of stomach trouble,
and never rallied again. He was o.
years old and had lived nearly all his
life in Terrell county.
When news of the death of this no.
BILE character this friend to man, was
flashed across the wires Herod, Daw-
son and surrounding community were
grieved and shocked. He and the doc
tors had made such brave fight for
the life so dear to so many. For if one
man had more friends than another
it was Kit Harris. From the highest
to the lowest in all walks of life all
liked and loved him.
He was noted for his charity. Many
were the expressions around his bier
of how he helped those who were in
need. His bright disposition, his
words of cheer, his optimism will be
missed by every one. He was truly a
philanthropist His deeds spoke loud
er than his words. Though not mem
Der of the church he had for some
time told of his faith in Jesus, and
in his last hours gave assurance Of
this trust in God. He told his wife
he was going to die; left her in Gods
hands and.-just thirty minutes before
his death told his family, friends and
nurses goodbye, and gently fell
asleep. All of his immediate fam
lily but one, with his sister, Rye"
as he fondly called her, were with
him at the last. Also a special FRIEND
who had been so faithful He was
brought home Friday and on the
next morning was laid to rest in the
presence of the largest crowd that
ever assembled in the cemetery on
Saturday, and one of the largest on
any other day.
Many beautiful floral offerings at
tested his popularity, one of the pref
test being from the Sunbeams, the
little children who loved him. The
funeral ceremonies were conducted by
Rev S. F. Lowe and Rev. w. F.
Smith in a beautiful and impressive
manner.
He is survived by his wife, two
sons, E. L. and Paul Harris; three
married daughters, Mrs. George Pat
terson of Weston, Mrs, L. L. Mobley
and Mrs. A. L. Mobley of Fitzger-
aid, and two small daughters; three
sisters, Mrs. w. B Quailes of Besse-
mer, Ala, Mrs. D. ]. Dennis of Her
cd and Mrs. Matte Lassiter of Hatch
err Station, and one brother, c. M.
Harris of Dawson He was nephew
of Young L. G. Harris, of Athens.
To all his loved ones sincerest sym
pathy is offered.

ALL BUSINESS HALTED
AT FUNERAL HOUR
AS PRESIDENT GOES TO HIS
GRAVE ALL WORLD HUSH
ED IN SILENT TRIBUTE.

Dawson joined the rest of the ma
ton in paying the tribute of silence to
Warren G. Harding as his body was
entombed Friday at Marion, Ohio.
Local banks were closed all day, and
every place of business was closed
during the funeral hour The whole
world paused and all its people stood
with uncovered heads in honor of and
in sorrow for the chief executive of
this mighty nation.
From coast to coast and from
border to border every wheel of the
federal government and practically
every one OF commerce and industry
stood still Theaters and other amuse-
ment places were closed; baseball
games postponed and other events Of
sports deferred. The Postal Telegraph
company silenced all of its telegraph
and cable wires for two minutes, while
the Western Union suspended activi-
ties for three minutes.
The seat of government at Wash
ington, which few brief days age
felt his kindly guidance, for the time
forgot the perplexities of mundane
things. In New York and Chicago the
great marts of trade halted in the
daily rush for dollars.
Throughout the land, railroad trains
paused in their flight for a minute
while the Marion bells tolled the knell
of Americas distinguished son.
In Georgia all railroad trains, paus-
ed Tor three minutes Whether freight
or passenger all slowed down and
stopped wherever they happened to be.
And so it was in every city, town
and hamlet throughout this country
and in the great European capitals
and in every place on the hemisphere
where the Stars and Stripes foated
at half-mast for the leader for whom
a world mourns.
