DUSSELDORF August 80 - Ad-
miration for French pep" was ex-
pressed today hy Col. Alvin OwSley,
national commander of the American
Legion, on his arrival here for an
observation tour of the Ruhr.
The remarkable thing to me" lie
said, is that despite the long, ardu-
Gus war the French are on their toes
and doing things with real American
pep. For sheer driving, dynamic pow
er the French are making us feel
ashamed of ourselves. Whatever may
be the merit economically of the ocCu-
patton Of the Ruhr, we cannot help
but admire the French for their pluck
in their determination to win peace
as they fought to win the war.
Approves Ruhr Move.
Il couldn't if l would hide my sym
path| with the purpose for which
France and Belgium came into the
Ruhr. but that doesn't preclude the
possibility of my making AN impartial
observation which | do intend 10
make"
The colonel said he noticed that the
French from the puilu to Gen. De-
goutte. We're up and doing. He added
that I'll" first thing he wanted To inn
press upon America WAS thdt 50 far
as the conduct of the occupation of
the Kuhr was concerned he was not
'pro-anything."

oWsley. and. let me emphasize, |

Annual Summons to
Red Cross Banner
On Armistice Day

Americas great humanitarian effort
In behalf of stricken Japan early In
September gave the answer to the
question. What is there for the Red
Cross to do in time of peace?" What
the American Red Cross did at once
when this crushing earthquake disas-
ter came without warning showed
that it was ready on the instant with
countrywide team work to carry out
quickly and effectively the request of
the President to lead the national eff
fort for the relief of the many thou
sands OF sufferers. Preparedness to
take the field when relief is needed is
a charter duty of the Red Cross.
Without a membership enrolled in ev-
cry community In the land this readi-
ness would be impossible. That is
why your dollar membership is most
important.
1t is imperative that the structure
Of the American Red Cross be made
up of millions of individual units.
Opening Armistice Day, November II,
and closing with Thanksgiving Day,
November 29, the Roll Call this year
will penetrate to the ends of the
earth and to the ships sailing the
seven seas. The 5000 Red Cross
Chapters in the United States will
have their busy volunteers enrolling
members during this period imbued
with renewed enthusiasm due to the
recent revival of effort when the call
came from Japan.

POLITICAL

Political dishonesty breeds dishon-
esty Of every kind. A state of mind
which will intend one fraud will,
upon occasion, intend a thousand.
He who upon 4 emergency viii
lie, will be supplied with emer-
gencies in order that he may con-
tinue to lie. He who will perjure
himself to save a friend, win do 1t in
a desperate juncture to save himself.
He who Is unjust In the least is IN
just also In much.
Temptations to political dishon-
esty r easily accepted. The po-
litical dishonesty which destroys
ones character units him for hon
est positions In every other depart
ment OF life. That which Is true of
leaders In politics Is true of subor-
dinates.
Political dishonesty In voters runs
into general dishonesty as the o
ten speck tsints the whole apple.
Men who play the political game dis
honestly will play the same kind Of
a game In their private Affairs. The
tricks and traps in politics, when
once learned by a young man, are
by him used in business and society,
and In every other walk in life. q
The mar who lies to you In poll
tics win lie to you in trade, In bust
ness and In social intercourse. The
man who ISLANDERS In politics viii
SANDER In personal affairs.
The man who claims to be a
Christian and at the same time is a
dishonest politician, may be branded
as one of the dirtiest, most con-
temptible and pitifui aspects TO be
found wearing the name Christian
1t is the duty Of every person to
be a politician In the highest and
truest sense of that term. What is
politics? 1t is the science Of gov
eminent. and every man should
master that science.

Will You Drown This Year?

1t is not necessary to lay down any
DOS" and "Don'ts" about swimming.
The fact that many experienced swim.
mers lose their lives every year should
be sufficient warning for those who
may be tempted to let their valor get
the better part of their judgment
Swimming is the most wonderful ex
ercise in the world-but know your
limitations in the water and stay with
them. 1t is the folks who like to take
a chance by beating the train TO the
crossing" or "going out beyond their
depth" who are rewarded with the
granite-covered headstones.

Another Viewpoint.

A vacationist in Arkansas was af-
tracted to a native who kept driving
a lank, lean pig up IN lane and down
another. Unable to control his curl
osity longer, he walked to the fence.

my business, but why are you driving
that pig up and down these lanes-it
seems such a waste of timer"

Nearing the Presidential Starting Post

With twenty states operating Presidential primaries it will
not be long-as a fact not more than six months-before the
national candidates will become known and the dark horses
smoked into the paddock. The first primary is that of New
Hampshire which will be held March II. North Dakota follows
a week later and then the whole system gets into rapid operation
Here is a list Of the states having presidential primary laws
with the dates for the primary elections of all parties.
California, Tuesday, May g. New jersey, Tuesday, April %.
Florida, Tuesday, June [. New Hampshire, March II.
Georgia, to be fixed by state North Carolina, June :.

Michigan. Monday. April 7 South Dakota. May q.
Montana, Tuesday, Nay q: West virginia. May p.
Nebraska, Tuesday. April Is. Wisconsin, Tuesday, April l.
In Florida the Republican party is eliminated, the law of the
state not applying to a party not polling 35 per cent of the total
vote in the preceding general election. Republicans of Florida,
therefore, will hold a convention to pick candidates.
The spread Of the primary system gives cause for much IN
easiness among a number of state bosses who for years have dom
mated the political situation. By combinations, dickers, con-
vention unit rules and other specious practices they have turned
the wish Of the people into a voice SO still and small that it is
not heard even in a whisper. The threatened ending Of such
primary takes the crooked boss out of authority and restores
the right of franchise to the people. If the primary system
expands to any appreciable extent the country newspapers alone,
voicing the wish of more than 60,000.0OO of the American PEG
pie will render it impossible to crush popular demand in the
machinery of party chieanery when it happens to exist.
