GREAT DEFENSE DAY
TEST OF PATRIOTISM

FORT SAM HUSTON, Teras, Sep
ternber "A step back to the Days
Of the Revolution" in the method OF
mobilizing our Army, if an eraler-
gency ever arises, was predicted to-
day by Major General Ernest Hind
commanding the Eighth Corps Area,
in statement covering some Of the
details of the Defense test to be held
on September 18th.
"War Department plans for Ma
seional Defense provide for a return
TO Revolutionary War methods OF
mobilization" said General Hinds.'
'Instead of troops being sent to a
central cantonment, scores, and III
some cases hundreds of miles away
from their home, they will be gath
cred locally, trained near their homes,
fed and sheltered there and replace
ments will come from their 1ellow
citizens.
"Never again will men be herded
in huge cantonment, erected at
enormous expense, far from home and
friends. Instead the men will collect
themselves together naturally, much
as our forefathers did in the Revolu-
tionary War, each town and state
will be largely responsible for its
own troops. There is no question OF
the economy of such plan, or OF
its equitable distribution of the our
den, but it is so highly decentraliz-
ed that its success depends upon each
community understanding and intel
igently performing its duties.
of tho cf o1 1rl1Y1tO
features in our program for National
Defense if war should ever come to
US again" said General Kinds. There
is nothing of the sabre rafting
about the plan so often referred to
by well-meaning, but misguided peo-
pie, most of whom apparently have
never actually read the provisions OF
she National Defense Act OF 1920.
1t il hard to be patient with the
sophistries of people who think that
self-defense is a crime and that to
secure ueace a nation ought to put
itself in a position in which it can
offer the least possible resistance TO
foreign insults or invasion.
"A nations first duty is self de-
fense, but unfortunately there are
Americans who would have US pc
lieve the millennium has arrived and
that war has become outlawed among
the nations of the earth. Those Of
US who have gone through wars wish
this were so. It is interesting to
note too that the Soviet government
of Russia, which maintains the larg-
est standing army in the world and
believes intensely in the use of force
to attain political ends, knows how
to play on the delusions of the type
of Americans commonly known as
pacificts. 1t has been recommending
anti-war and anti-national defense
demonstrations throughout the world
from July % to August 4 Of this
year, although it is well understood
that there will be no similar demon
strations in Russia"

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES
BY DWIGHT b. HEARD

THIRD. In addition to the pro
lection of Arizona's rights by ar
agreement, as outlined above, E
plan should be developed to secure
the execution Of a just arrange
ment which shall fully protect
Arizona's rights to the use of wat
er for irrigation, against any fut.
ure appropriation of Colorado Riv-
er water for lands in Mexico.
FOURTH. Action should be
taken to secure, by legislation, the
same right for Arizona to tax hy.
dro-electfic works developed on the
Colorado River by private interests
on Federal lands as the State now
has on privately owned lands.
Cooperation should be the slo-
gan for the settlement of the Colo.
rado river problem, and the people
assured of a program of develop
nent with AriZona's rights deter
mined and safeguarded and rates
for water service and power placed
under proper public control.
x. We are naturally proud of Ari-
zo1a's schools, but the time seems
to have come in eur educational
work to utilize the best experience
gained in other states, in obtain
ing improved methods in handling
school funds, including supervision
by trained educators of State
school expenditures. Not only car
economies be developed in the edu.
cational expenditures Of the State
but by supplying trained advice
and counsel to county authorities q
further saving can be effected ir
district school expenses as well.
(. To give the maximum of service
our State University, by proper
legislative action, should be re
moved from any possibility of par
tisan control or disruption o.
policy.
The administration Of the State
normal schools should be equally
free from political changes.
II. The conservation and develop
ment of the public lands of Arizona
offer special opportunities for prac-
tical service. Proper management
of these lands and the wise invest
ment of the funds created from
their sale and rental would re-
ceive vigorous support.
The vital thing needed in Arizona
5 business administration with the
'esultant tax reduction. / am con-
inced that if the foregoing program
an be put into effect with economy
nd efficiency as the slogan for the
states work, tax reduction so essen
tally needed can be brought about
without impairment of service.
These are business problems and
hould be met from the standpoint
f clear-headed, business analysis.
he time has come for very great de-
elopment within our. state if these
ital economic questions are met with
good sense and in a broad
pirit Of public service. The oppor-
unity of having a share in helping
0 work them out along practical and
obstructive lines strongly appeals to
le.
The political situation, as it affects
le, I shall cfeerfully leave in the
ands of the voters. In this contest
shall make a clean and vigorous
ampaign, and whatever the result,
aould hope to secure and to retain
le respect and confidence of my fell
wv citizens.

Georgia Cow Sets
New High Record
In Milk Production

SANDERSVILLE, Ga, April II.
Fern Crest Guernsey farm has
new high record of milk production.
Until Monday of this week F1orham
Favorite's Queen 10S411 was cham
pion with record of so pounds OIL
milk in "a hours. Monday she
passed the championship honors to
Itchen Ranters Constance 11011S,
who gave 61.7 pounds of milk at the
age Of four years and four months.
Florham Favorite's Queen was eigh-
teen months older when she gave so
pounds. Both cows were born and
raised at Fern Crest. Itchen Ran
ter's Constance is giving a little
more milk each day. She has reach
ed Z IA gallons, and it seems like
ly that she will give gallons a day
when she reaches her best produc-
ton for this milking period.
Three COWS standing side by side
in the barn gave 10 gallons and one
quart Of milk Monday. Two heifers
with first calves and just two years
old, are giving 5 gallons of milk each
day. These five cows gave 20 gal
Ions and one quart of milk Monday.

Dollar Bills Tear
Too Easily; Bureau
Starts an Inquiry

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, April 10
cause the new 1928 series Of dollar
bills are brittle and tear easily, the
treasury department, in conjunction
with the bureau Of standards and
the engraving bureau, has started an
inquiry to learn the reason.
Widespread complaint against the
new bills has reached the treasury.
Thousand of dollars a day in these
new bills have been fed into the
macerator in the treasury building
because they are torn.
Paper money should survive circu'
lation year at least, officials say,
while many of the new dollars last
less than a week.

M'ADOO'S VICTORY RATIFIED
AND DELEGATES APPROVED BY
DEMOCRATIC SUB COMMITTEE

Putnam county; and Miller S. Bell,
of Baldwin county.
Mrs. Oscar T. Peoples, of Carriers
vile, sent word that she was pre-
vented from attending the meeting
by illness. The other absentees were
II. III. Elders, Of Reidsville, president
Of the Underwood campaign commit
tee, and J. B. Daniel, of LAGRANGE.
Although the meeting was scheduled
for IL o'clock, Chairman Maddox did
not call it to order until 1880 in the
hope that the other members would
appear.
The subcommittee was created by
the executive committee, and
charged with the duty Of arranging
details for the conduct OF the pri-
mary, the consolidation Of the vote
and arrangements for the state con-
vention.
The rules of the state executive
committee governing the presidential
preference primary and the state
convention, provide that in the
event any county chairman fails or
refuses to appoint the delegates and
alternates designated by the, person
al representatives of the successful
candidate in Georgia. the chairman
of the state executive committee has
the authority to make the appoint
ments, at the request of the repre-
sentatives.
Convention to Be Harmonious
The state convention will be held
in Atlanta on April 20, and the in
dications are that it will be one Of
the most harmonious gatherings in
the history of the party, because IF
the fact that only the supporters of
Mr. McAdoo will be selected as dele
gates and alternates. The state con-
vention will designate 2S delegates
to attend the national Democratic
convention in New York City in
June. The delegates to the national
convention will select the national
committeeman from Georgia.
Chairman Maddox made an effort
Saturday to complete arrangements
for convention hall in Atlanta,
but later announced that the ar
rangement cannot be completed I'M
til the first of this week.

before the president sailed for Eu-
rope, pointing out that he was at
the climax of his career, and that Sc
rious disaffection existed inside the
Democratic party, which, if not
cured, might lead to defeat in 1920.
Reports of the presidents displeas-
ure were carried to me, but when l
talked with him in Paris and later
in Rome, he was cordial. On the
western trip in September, 1919, l
found him personally friendly. L
had become so interested in the de-
tails of the Shantung controversy
that l spent a whole day making a
digest of the pro and con Of 1t to-
gether with some views on the sub
iect which l had acquired by indie
pendent study, and was gratified to
find that he thought enough Of the
memorandum to incorporate the ar
gument almost verbatim in some of
his last speeches on the Pacific coast.
1t was after Mr.. Wilson returned
to the White House, and had begun
to recover sufficiently from his i'll
ness to take an interest in public at
fairs that my own break with him
occurred. The dismissal of SeCreta-
~ Lansing on the ground that he
had called cabinet meetings without
authority seemed to me unjust, and
! reported the facts as we'll as [
knew them, suggesting that only a
fit of temper could have prompted
this action.
From that time on Mr.. Wilson was
represented to me as again displeased
with my writings. and though ] had
no communication with him there
after, I was apparently so sympa-
thetic with his ideals that editorial
writer's continued to accuse me Of
being inspired by him.
1t was not until a few weeks be
fore Mr.. Wilson died that I heard
that he had spoken of me in compli-
meltary terms. An old Princeton
graduate had been chatting with him
about his former pupils, and Mr..
Wilson was kind enough to include
me in the list Of those whom ne held
in esteem.
(Tomorrow's chapter tells of the
last four years.
