many instances has proved of the
greatest benefit. AS Czechoslovakia is
48 per cent agricultural. it becomes
apparent what a wide appeal these
new farming ideas make, especially
when they pertain to saving labor, IN
creasing crop yields and making life
easier and more remunerative for the
farming population.

IMPROVES CZECH'S FARMING
WITH IDEAS GATHERED HERE
Agriculture Attache, DIR.
Rudolph kuraz, Does
Novel Work.
Has Found u. S. Methods
Of Greatest Value
to Homeland.

DR.. Rudolph Kuraz, whose novel
assignment to Washington five years
ago as an agricultural diplomat"
aroused international interest. has
been recalled to CZechoslovakia and
while temporarily attached to the
home Office will use the latest ideas
and scientific knowledge of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture in an effort to make 10
blades of grass grow where only 1
grew before.
DIR. Kuraz holds the distinction of
being the second agricultural attache
ever sent here by any foreign gov
ernment. Countless military. naval
and commercial attaches had pre-
ceded him, but the arrival of a
farmer attache" was hailed as the
dawn of a new diplomacy which has
already proved of inestimable value
to the young CZechoslovakian re-
public.
II have learned much from obser-
vatien in the United States which
has and will continue to be of great
benefit to the farmers Of CZecho-
slovakia," asserted DR.. Kuraz when
seen at the legation headquarters
here. The present government is
devoting the greatest possible atten-
ton to internal development. While
neighbor nations are dreaming of
military greatness to be brought
about with arms. the Department of
Agriculture at Prague is eager for
the day to come when the nation will
raise greater crops and use all waste
land to advantage, thereby making
the people happier and more pros
porous.
Great Progress Made.
Great progress has already been
made in agricultural lines,' DR..
kuraZ added. The start was made
with land reforms and an effort was
made to place the fertile fields in
the hands of those who would cult
vate them, and to create a body of
free farmers out of an intelligent and
progressive peasantry. The old es-
tates have been broken up to a large
extent and the owners compensated
to the full value except in cases
where the land was owned by the
former ruling family, this being
confiscated.

THE ITALIAN DEBT.

The Italian debt commissioners came here
with the intention of staying until they reached
an agreement with the United States, in
stead of setting an arbitrary date for leaving.
This offers more hope of settlement.
The whole spirit in which Italy comes to
Washington is one .iustifying hopeful expecta-
ton on both sides. The Italian representatives
say they want to pay all they can, and lay
their cards on the table. The American rep
resentatives recognize this sincerity and
candor and agree to "apply the principle OF
Italys capacity to pay" and to, give due
weight to the special conditions existing in the
Italian situation"
Italy makes a better case for special con-
sideration than some other debtors have done.
AS Count Volpi presents the situation, here
are the high points:
Italy spent on the war 80 per cent of her
national wealth..
She received no valuable colonies
She gets only 10 per cent of reparations.
against Frances So per cent and great
Britian's % per cent.
She is a poor country, with large population
but few natural resources.
She has balanced her budget "by immense
sacrifices" This means taxes higher than
those of any other country, amounting to, 38
per cent of her net income; tax of 100 per
cent on war profits; capital tax such as no
other nation has imposed; reduction of mill
tary expenditures to point below pre-war
expenditure.
The debt amounts to a little over $4,000
100000. Americans do not want to "hold the
bag" in the war debt business, but neither do
they want to grind the face of war partner
grievously in debt and doing her best to pull
out. ss0
Good will on both sides ought to arrive at a
satisfactory adjustment.

ONE WAY TO IMPROVE.

Kenosha, while it won the Better Cities con-
test by good margin, stood eighth III one de-
partment Of that contest. That department
was town and rural relations, and according to
the informal reports which have come back
from the conference where the results CT the
contest were announced, Kenosha was woefully
lacking in this regard.
There are, of course several aiibis which
may be offered in this respect. Everyone
knows that Kenosha is manufacturing center
and that there is not the incentive here to pro-
mote better relations between town and coun-
ty such as exists in a community where the
city is largely a center for large rural trad
ing district This alibi, however, should be for
gotten and Kenosha should buckle down IN an
effort to draw up to creditable showing in
this department just as it has shown in prac-
tically every other department.
The rating which Kenosha made in this part
of the contest has started the leaders of this
community to thinking as to what can be done
to draw the city and county closer together.
One thing which has been pointed out. as a
good starting place for making these points of
closer contact, is the development of bigger
county fair for this county
Those who came back from the conference
unanimously stated that the existence of the
West Kenosha County Fair out in the western
part of the county-an institution in which
the city Of Kenosha has not shown a great
deal of enthusiasn-Was the one thing which
kept Kenosha from landing in last place in
stead of eighth in town and rural relations
This is a compliment to those people in the
western part of the county who have worked
hard to build up a fair for their part of the
community.
Two ways present themselves for this coun-
ty to build up the county fair to an extent
where il will affect not one section of the coun-
ty but all of it. One of these is for the entire
county to join enthusiastically in the West Ke-
nosha county Fair and make it fair where
there will be an exchange of ideas of city and
country folks so that all will be drawn into
closer cooperation, The other is to unite the
West Kenosha County Fair with a broader
fair movement which would include the en-
tire county.
The time was when Kenosha county had a
fair which was the equal of any in this part
of the state. There is every reason why it
should still have such a fair.
One of the reasons why it has not, is that the
various organizations in the community which
should sponsor movement for a county fair
wait until the last moment to consider the vari-
Gus plans for one. Then it is too late for the
movement to crystalize that reason. Now is
the time to start planning here for fair which
will do much to unite country and city. The
standing which Kenosha was given in the bet
ter cities contest should act as a prod to get
some real action this year along that line.

There may be sections of the country where
the women voters have not had much influence
in changing the tenor of politics. There have
been other sections where the women have
shown real aptitude towards political organiza-
lions and have gone out to use their ballot to
better their community. Kenosha has had
some examples of this and there will probably
be few women--or men either for that matter
i'm this city who would agree with Mrs. Gibbs
in her statement.

COMPULSORY VOTING.

Now Australia is going to have an election,
and with an unusual condition. For once, per-
haps, the voting itself will be more interesting
than the people and the things voted for. Aus
tralia has new law which makes voting COM
pulsory. Stayaways will go to Jail, unless
they can furnish mighty good reason for
their absence from the polls.
A half hearted effort Of this sort was made
some time ago. with Indifferent results. But
now there is a new law with teeth in it.
We shall see what we shall see, and the re-
suit may help in working out our own voting
problem. There are plenty of good citizens in
this country ready to demand similar law.
Others will be inclined in the future, as in the
past, to question whether it pays to drive citi-
zens to the polls-whether an unwilling and
uninterested voter is any better than no voter
whether it isn't well to keep voting priv
lege rather than forced duty - whether it
isn't all right everything considered, that
those who won't take the trouble to help
govern should be governed by those who will.

WOMEN POLITICIANS FAILURES?

Il think women have failed in politics. They
are not only a failure but menace. The pres
sure that is being exerted on legislators by wo-
men office seekers for more and more laws,
commissions and burocratc agencies under
the hypocritical guise of humanitarianism and
womanly tenderness is bringing about a CEN
tralization in our government which will de-
stroy tiff not checked. / am for repeal of
the nineteenth amendment"
The above Indictment brought against wo-
men as a factor in the political life of the ma
ton as judged by what has occurred since they
were granted the franchise was not made by
any mere man. 1t is the statement of a woman
Mrs. Rufus Gibbs of Maryland. She was an
anti-feminist and she is living up to the adage
which runs, "A womanA convinced against her
will is of the same opinion still"
1t is not easy to believe that a fair-minded
man who has watched the trend of affairs
since women were given the franchise would
agree with any such an Indictment. Perhaps
it is true that some women who have entered
politics have not proven the pronounced sue
cesses which their campaign managers had
foretod for them. Do not forget, however, that
some men who have been elected to public Of
flee, also failed to measure up to the expecta-
tions of those who backed their candidates..
MA Ferguson is having her troubles in
Texas, and the anti-feminists are pointing to
her as failure. But Ma" Ferguson is not
the only governor in this country who is hav-
ing troubles. Some of the men who were
named to pilot their states have not been any
more successful. Mrs. Gibbs, it appears. wants
the women to acquire in very short period
of time the experience in political affairs
which men have gained in centuries of political
life It is too early to Judge entirely of the
effect which the granting of the ballot to wo-
men has had and certainly it is too early to
consider any such drastic action as the repeal
of the amendment which enfranchised women

they can do along political lines.

it will include the judgment that the
pathological obstinacy of the stricken
president was a large element in de-
feating American participation in the,
unifcation of the world, of which he
was the founder.
But there can be no. question that
the words of BRAND, in his tribute
to Wilson, were the voices of perma-
nent history, in America as well as
in Europe, giving to Woodrow Will
son his just place as the author of
the only constructive result. of the
war, and the founder of new world
order.
