ty on the ballot this year, $4,000
signatures or three per cent of the
total vote in the previous elections
will be required, these to be filed on
June 14th. The law even specifies
the size and form of type to be used
ir printing the petitions.
To place our presidential candi-
dates on the ballot there, we must
nominate Is electors. For each
elector separate petition must be
printed. This means that every CT
tizen who signs must sign 10 times
for our electors only, besides the
various signatures which may be re-
quired for the state and local Of
fees.
We intend to file our candidates
as Independents under law which
allows additional candidates to go on
the ballot as individuals after the
primaries have been held. Under
this law, they go on the ballot with
out Party designation, requiring on
ly IL to Is thousand signatures this
year. These signatures must be OBJ
tanned within period of % days,
each signature being dated and veri-
fled by a deputy registrar. Under
the law only those who have been
certified as deputy registrars may
canvas for signatures. These depu-
ty registrars must be citizens who
are qualified voters. Voters who
participated in the primaries are
not eligible to sign petitions.

CONSOLIDATION of the alliance is

"This is only possible on the
basis of new technique and collec-

Apart from concessions we must
have points of economic support in

grain difficulties have shaken up the
Bolsheviks and forced them to work
more actively for the development

difficulties the Bolsheviks would
hardly have paid such serious at
tention to the question.
"The Donetz trial also caused us
to consider taking energetic steps
for the formation of new technical
forces in industry. First steps have
already been taken and more will
be effected"

MEMORIAL DAY

Memorial Day is again almost at
hand, one of our most sacred ma
tional days. 1t is a tribute of the
living to their dead, those who gave
all that their nation should not per-
ish from the earth.
Let us pause in the hurry OF life,
for thoughtful moment in the true
spirit of its observance, and be CRATE
full for the peace and freedom that is
ours. In so doing we will be paying
homage to the soldiers of all our
wars who made the supreme sacri-
fee.
Let not the greatness of their
deeds be forgotten. Undue a rever-
ence of the day in the hearts of your
children and their children's child
ren,1the coming generations looked
to, to carry on.
Ours is nation free from section
al lines or strife, a world leader in
every great movement for peace and
happiness. We should be eternally
grateful for our enviable position as
nation. A nation entrusted to us
by those who faced the lannon's
mouth.

TAXPAYERS RESPONSIBLE FOR

People will never solve their tax

facts" says DR.. Miibank johnson.
who has made a through study OF
tax fundamentals.
Anyone who damns officials for
crookedness and graft has mighty
weak basis for solving his tax prob
lens. Anyone, however, who can go
to the officials OF the community and
show them the acutal facts, will do a
great work. You will find that they
are usually very glad to follow any
reasonable advice you may give
them.
Taxpayers themselves, because of
their demands on government, are
responsible for high taxes. Until
they stop to think and to plan their
budgets for the future, as well as
those for the present, the taxpayers
are going to be in the same condition
as the householder or family that
takes no thought for the morrow. T"

HOW THEY SERVE

Pointing out the distinction be-
tween bedside nursing and public
health nursing, in radio talk, re-
sently, Mrs. Ethel Monroe Troy, Ad-
visory Nurse of the State Depart
ment of Health, said that the "Pri-
gate duty nurse" as the nurse who
takes care of, the sick is called, deals
with the patient as a separate indi-
yidual, while the public health nurse
sees the patient as a member OF a
family and the family as unit in a
community
The activities of the rural public
health nurse, Mrs. Troy said are car
ried ON under the direction of the
Health Officer: the private duty
nurse works under the direction of
The patients physician. When the
public health nurse visits those who
are sick she does so with the consent
of the attending physician.

ing care or who may not be able to

is under way, Mrs. Troy said, in
cities and towns and closely settled
communities to provide hourly or
group nursing for which regular
fee is charged.
The rural public health nurse,
Mrs. Troy said. carries on general
nursing program in which special
emphasis is laid ION the control OF
diseases -tuberculos-
s, typhoid fever, diphtheria, scarlet
fever-and which includes matern-
ity, infant and child welfare work,
school nursing, instruction in home
care of the sick and many other ac-
tivities tending to lesson the anguish
of illness and TO promote positive
health.

THE PROPOSED MULTILATERAI
TREATIES

what does this treaty between
France and the United States about
the outlawry of war mean? What
is this treaty which has just been
signed between them?. II this trea-
ty has been signed, why another?
What does the multilateral treaty
call for?-These are few OF the
questions being asked by people who
are really trying to understand what
they hope is an earnest effort made
towards bringing about world peace
A new treaty has been signed with
France, it is true, signed quietly, yet
somewhat dramatically, since the
first treaty made between the two
countries before the new republic OF
the United States and firmly estab
lished its independence lay, faded
and yellowed, upon the table before
them. But this treaty renewed and
added to the terms Of the treaty al
ready existing between them and ex
piring in February 1928 and had
s.no relations whatsoever to the pro
posal submitted by M. BRAND for {
treaty declaring against war and re-
nouncing it as an instrument of ma
tional policy"
This proposal was made by M
BRAND in the summer OF 1927;
Sec. Kellogg made counter pro
posal that an equivalent multilater-
al treaty be concluded among the
principal powers of the world, open
to adherence by any and all nations,
thus extending throughout the world
the benefits of a covenant originally
suggested between France and the
United States alone. The powers
which suggested the quotations
are from Sec. Kellogg's own explain
alton published in an April maya
zine, "be invited in the first instance
to join with France and the United
States were Great Gritain, Germany,
Italy and Japan"
France at first expressed herself
as fearing that such treaty would
conflict with her obligations to the

itself decided that this is not neces-
sarily true. And the multilateral
treaties are now being considered by
the powers named. While NO Off
cial response has yet been received
Germany is said to intellectually
approve, Japan to be in favor OF it.
England to be in considering mood
and Italy to be unfavorable.

GOOD WILL VISIT MADE By
TTTRKJSH AMBASSADOR

Ahmed Mouhtar Bey, Ambassador
from Turkey to the United States,
finished an all day goodwill visit to
Baltimore and Baltimore county,
Wednesday, May Is, as the guest at
an informal supper at st. Marks on
the Hill Parish House, Pikesville,
Baltimore county. The Ambassador
was welcomed by group of rather
distinguished people; Rev. Roger A.
Wake, rector Of st. Marks on the
Hill Church, presided. The Ambas-
sador spoke in French and his re-
marks were translated by the En-
bassy interpreter, Miss Nelson. He
said he was stirred by the sincerity
and warmth with which he had been
received, that through absence OF an
Ambassador since 1920. America
ana Turkey had grown apart but
that now they were coming closer
together which means SO much in
friendship between America and
Turkey.
The Ambassador, who came to
Baltimore as the guest Of the Near
East Relief to appeal for the relief
organization in its closing campaign
in Baltimore and Baltimore county,
spoke at the City College to the 240O
students and at the Rennert Hotel
again in the afternoon to group OF
prominent guests. In his addresses
he commended the Near East Relief
and at the City College said he
should feel joy without bounds il
this his first and cordial contact with
the, intellectual world of the United
States, could serve as a prelude to
the establishment of social and cul-
tural relations between the youth OF
the two countries.
