Fred McInturf, Republican Nominee
EN,. Gfofn


Fred McInturf, of Chesterhill, Re-
publican candidate for State Rep
resentative, is a man we'll met and
has been assured of strong support
from influential members Of both
parties, at the coming general elec-
ton, November 8th. He was born
and reared in Morgan county, on
farm; educated in the local public
schools, and began making his own
way in the world when quite a
young man. He operated a grist
mill for some time, and was man
ager of the Chesterhill-Elliott
telephone company for a number of
years. He has always interested
himself in public affairs, and served
with distinction as county commits
sioner of Morgan county.
In aspiring to the office Of State
Representative, Mr. McInturf has
no ulterior motives; his aim is to
serve all of the people to the best
of his ability and work to the end
of constructive legislation at all
times. Such man is needed in this
office at this time, and if elected
Mr.. McInturf can be depended upon
to work particularly hard in the in
terest of all the people of the coun-
ty.
A change is needed in this legis-
lative body, that will give all the
people representation Distress, due
to unemployment, has reached stag
gering proportions. Demands made
on charity in the winter of 1922,
while meeting with whole hearted
response, were greater than ever be-
fore in the history of our state, AMI
the inadequate relief can only be
temporary and does not change the
unbearable and unnecessary condi-
tions which cause this suffering.
Governmental expenditures, both
for the state and all its subdivisions
can and must be reduced. Fayorit
ism and all special privileges must
be abolished and we must return to
the old order of equal rights for
all and special privileges for none"

Si1ty-nine Cadets Die
 Like Rats
Trapped at Tn cir Desks Below Deck When
 Ship Goes Down

KEEL, Germany, July 27. - A group of buoys, signifying trag- edy, bobbed on the surface of Kiel Bay today over the spot where 69 German naval cadets were drowned yesterday when the old windjam- mer Niobe went down in squall.
 Sixty-nine youths were trapped at their desks in the schoolroom between decks when the ship sank. Only six of those below decks sur vived.
 Thirty seven persons aboard were saved, including the captain and his lieutenant, IT members of the crew and 18 cadets.
 Was War Prize
 The Niobe was a war prize. She was reconditioned for a training ship and for two years was in command of Count Felix von Luck ner, dubbed the Sea Devil" for his exploits during the World War.
 Salvage vessels, equipped with diving apparatus, started work to- day.
 All through the night, search lights played on the waters where the vessel went down but no addi- tional survivors were rescued in Germany's greatest naval disaster since the World War.
 Future Highs Die
 Two thirds of the one-year class of future naval officers perished.
 One surviving cadet said: "The first officer had sufficient presence of mind to shout all hands to star board when the squall struck the ship but it was too late. Scarcely 30 seconds later the Niobe was on the bottom of the sea-"

EQUALITY IS DEMANDED BY
 GERMAN GEN.;
 THREAT MADE
Nation Will Increase De- fense Unless Other Powers Reduce
 ArmamentS

BERLIN, July 27. - Gen. Kurt von Schleicher, the pow CT behind the von Papen throne, struck a note of de- fiance to the world in a radio address, serving virtual mo- tice on the world powers that unless Germany is granted equality and released from the limitations of the post war treaties, she will proceed to establish her own security by reorganization of her arm- ed forces
 Security for Germany, Gen. von Schleicher said, can only be attained by other powers scaling down their ornaments to Germany's level, or by re- organizing German defenses.
 The Germna General said that if equality is denied us, we must take the alternative of providing and establishing our own security for the fu- ture."

F e q eral Appropriation of Millions of Dollars
 to Aid States
THIRTY HOUR WEEK
 GOES INTO EFFECT
Vigorous Step in Right Di- rection in Unemploy-
 ment Situation

CHICAGO, H., July 27.-A quart CT of a million men will soon be working 30 hours week for II months. This is indicated follow ing nationwide survey. The work will be the result of the $120,000, 900 Federal appropriation to aid States in highway construction in prac- tically every State.
 The construction program is de- signed to make the jobless self sustaining and .is hailed as vig- orous step in the right direction.
 Relief workers are generally en- thusiastic over the provision of the 3O-hour week thus providing jobs for more workers over a longer period.
 Highway construction will be doubled and tripled in many States by the Federal appropriation which must be matched on 6 dollar for dollar status by the States.
 Additional thousands will be enl- ployed on road and other equip ment jobs. This will also increase the sale of food products.

Canadians Sponsor
 Back-to-Farm Plan

VANCOUVER, B. C., July 27.-- To relieve suffering and pressure on relief funds, dominion, provin- cial and municipal authorities in British Columbia are cooperating in an effort to return unemployed married men to small farms.
 A plan has been worked out to turn over to unemployed married men who have had farm experience approximately 5000 small parcels of land near Vancouver which have come into the possession of the province through tax sales.
 A feature of the effort is the ad- vancement of cash sums to each settler to aid each in establishing himself and becoming largely if not wholly, self-supporting.

WEAKEST LINK
 IN RAIL WAY IS
 RUSSIA'SC GUARD
Paradoxicai [ ract Consid- cred in Ligh t of
 Recent Events
By STANLEY p. RICHARDSON

MOSCOW, July 27.-The Trans Siberian railroad, the only line which links up the whole Soviet Union from the Baltic to the Pa cific, is at once the weakest and the strongest factor in the na- tion's transportation system, from a military standpoint.
 This paradoxical fact is being considered here in the light of re- cent Japanese actions in Manchur- ia. There is evidence that such moves as the Japanese seizure on June 29 of Chinese customs at Manchuria, on Manchuria's west ern border, and the more recent taking over of Russian docks and warehouses at Harioin, have strain ed Soviet patience.
 Lesson in Czar's Defeat
 The railroad is weakest because if war comes in the Far East 1t would be difficult to move suffic- tent troops and supplies over 1t unless there was time for advance preparations. Historians lay part of the responsibility for Czarist Russia's defeat by Japan to the railroads inability to rush large bodies of troops to Manchuria.
 Profiting by that lesson, the So- viet authorities began reinforcing their already strong military base in the Far East as soon as the war scare was occasioned here by Japanese occupation of Manchur- ia. Now Red Army leaders assert that the Soviet Union is ready to repel an inyasion-a possibility about which the press here warns unceasingly.
 The military strength of the link lies, paradoxically, in the place which might be considered it's greatest weakness-the fact that the far eastern end of the line, stretching 1,5O0 miles from Chita to Vladivostok, is only single track.
 It has been left that way delib- erately, as a piece of military strategy.
 Would Hamper Foe
 This makes of the territory ly- ing between Chita and Vladivostok sort of bottleneck Therein lies the strategy. An official of the commissariat for transporta- ton explained it this way:
 Suppose an enemy invaded so- viet territory from the east. He naturally would make first for the Trans-S Siberian, which is the only means by which he could hope to advance. But a single track line could not accommodate the troops and supplies he would have to move.
 Consider, therefore, that if the
