PLOT AGAINST RIVERA.
French Secret Service Convinced
Move Aimed at Dictator.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, November 1o.-That the
situation in Spain is by no means as
happy as Spanish official circles wish
the es-outside world to believe is the
opinion held in well informed official
quarters here. A censorship SO eff
fective that only the most meager
news seeps through is in operation
but it is pointed out that the AZ per-
sons arrested along the border by the
French authorities after the san
culinary affray at Vera, in the Span
up at both extremities of the from
tier, and this is taken to indicate the
existence of concerted movement
in relation to the troubles in BARGE
Iona, timed to start simultaneously
in several places.
Both the Spanish constitutional op-
position and Republican parties con-
denim the movement, which seems
to be syndicaliStic. 1t is obviously
not directed against the life of Gen.
Primo Rivera, the Spanish premier
and military dictator, as he is in
Morocco with his army, opposing the
rebel tribesmen.
Convinced Plot Exists.
French secret service officials,
however, are convinced that the
Spaniards arrested at Perpignan,
Ranyuls and Hendaye were con-
cerned in plot against the mill
tary dictatorship.
In a statement to lie Matin, Vicente
Blasco Ibanez, the Spanish novelist,
who recently declared his opposition
to the Rivera regime, characterize 8
the present movement as absurd
and criminal-absurd because it has
no chance to succeed and criminal
because it has caused useless loss of
life"
He adds that 'ft is the doing of
handful of anarchists who must
not be confounded in any way with
the Republican movement"
Ibanex Regrets Disturbance.
The manifestations. Senior Ibanez
declares, were directed from Paris,
probably by paid agitators, and
papers stamped with a forged seal
of the Barcelona General Labor Fed
Grafton were found on some of the
persons arrested. He says:
II am vexed and distressed by these
sangulnary disorders and l am most
anxious to make clear that We are
in no way involved in them"

FLAG FACTS AND CUSTOMS

FLAG FACTS AND CUSTOMS
Our flag should never touch the
ground,
1t should be saluted,
When a scout is in uniform, and
When the flag is used as standard
Not, when it is used as a decoration,
From sunrise until noon
On Memorial Day
Keep the flag at half mast,
From noon until sunset
Keep the flag at full mast.
No flag should be displayed
From the same mast
With the American flag,
Nothing should rest on the flag
Unless it be Bible.
1t should never be struck with
gavel.
In parade
With another flag
Give it the place of honor.
The flag should never be worn
AS part or a costume
When worn as badge
1t should be pinned
Over the left breast.
No advertising or lettering
Should be placed on the flag
Nor should it be used as trademark
Nor for any commercial purpose.
The formal pledge to the flag is,
/ pledge allegiance to my flag.
And to the republic for which it
stands,
One nation, indivisible
With liberty and justice for all.
River Falls journal. [volume] (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1872-2019, 1924-05-29

Second, the observance of a gener..
al practice whereby Boy Scout will
not appear in public, as a scout, I'M
less he is correctly and neatly dres-
sed.
Third, develop a larger use of the
scout neckerchief, as a symbol of
Scouting.
Fourth, do not permit any out
filters to substitute imitation mater
ial, which does not have the official
stamp of the Boy Scouts of America
and which will not stand the test of
washing as is guaranteed for all Of
fetal equipment.
Fifth, bring to the attention of the
proper scout officials evidence of any
one wearing the scout uniform, who
is not registered member in good
standing.
Cooperation in these matters will
in my judgment greatly add to the
power and strength of the appeal of
the Boy Scout Movement, not only
to the boy who is not a Scout, but
to the general public and the COM
munity as a whole. 1t is a very
simple way in which everybody in
terested can help to greatly advance
the cause of Scouting. Please give
US your help.
JAMES E. WEST,
Chief Scout Executive.

AN APPEAL TO THE FIELD

l sincerely hope that every Scout
and Scout official will cooperate in
the effort we are making:
First, to bring about a situation
where all troops of scouts will use
only official equipment, according to
to the decision of the proper local
scout authorities, from the list of ap-
proved equipment as announced in
the official catalog.
