the so-called Russian Council of Work
ers and Soldiers Delegates, chiefly
Bolsheviks and Mensheviks in session
in Petrograd, demanded peace con-
ference in a neutral country. It also
sounded a challenge to the Russian
provisional government, committed to
continuance of the conflict.
Emphatic disapproval of the peace
propaganda of the Socialists was ex-
pressed by the United States State De-
partment. Passports were refused to
American delegates to the Stockholm
conference. A warning was issued that
any American taking part in the nego-
tlatlons would be legally liable to
heavy punishment
The administration, answering rum
ors from abroad said the United
States would not consider a separate
peace with Germany Gwen if the i'm
perial government offered terms ac-
ceptable to the United States, no ac-
ton would be taken upon them un-
less it were to be taken jointly with
the Allies"

SONG AND DANCE SHOW AT
THE STEVENSON SATURDAY

"The Land Of Song And Dance" to
be presented in Stevenson's theatre
on Saturday morning, May Is, at 1890
o'clock will not have representation
of one dancing school, but combl-
nation of three. In this respect the
performance will present talent of
mixed nature and give the audience
variety of dances presented only as
Little People" can present them.
The Tandy Studio of dancing, of
Durham; the Tray-Boy dancing school
of Danville, Va, and pupils who have
come under the instruction of Miss
Rebecca Hunter, of Roxboro will
bring to the stage of the local theatre
for the first time something unique
and delightful.
We know that the Little People"
are above the average in their ability
to sing, dance and possess something
in the way Of personality that is de-
lightfully present throughout the en-
tire program.
If you want to live again as a child,
if you want to thrill to the song of
some of the best little singers your
heart has ever listened to, then by all
means be present Saturday morning
May Is, at 1920 o'clock at Stevenson's
theatre Don't miss ''The Land Of
Song And Dance"

Five questions seem to predomlnate
IN virtually all discussions with refer
ence to Congressional activities. These
are: What will be the final outcome
of the Presidents court plan? What
progress will be made on the Presi-
dents proposal to recognize the exc
cutive branch of the government?
Will the Presidents relief recommen-.
dation be followed, or will the $780,
100000 proposed be raised or lowered?
Will new tax legislation be brought
forward now or at the next session?
When will Congress adjourn?
There seems to be no political wiz
ards who can answer these questions
correctly at this time. However, all
are the subject of much comment and
are of vital interest all citizens. The
general opinion seems to be somewhat
as follows:
The Court Plan Congressional
mail indicates that interest in the
court proposal is still keen in some
sections of the country and is tagging
in others. This may be due to the lull
that often marks important legisla-
ton between the time of public hear
ings and a report to Congress by the
committee handling the measure. At
the moment there is no indication
that the President will offer or ac-
cept any compromise. Nevertheless,
the Chief Executive is a master at
reacting to public sentiment and his
aides are known to be busy in this
field.
Reorganization wholesale re-
- l. Il.
of the government at this session
seems unlikely. Tt is reasonably GER
tain that the Congress will not place
entirely under executive control those
units now responsible to Congress.
Some minor shifts in Federal agencies
may be approved.
Relief-The general opinion seems
to be that relief expenditures will not
go beyond the billion and a half re-
commended in the Presidents budget
message. They may be lowered under
the new urge for Federal economy
and a balanced-budget now sweeping
cities and crossroads, factory and
farm W.
Taxes-Two schools of thought
prevail with reference to Federal re-
venue. One is to attempt tax revision
at the current session SO that bust
ness industry and agriculture may
know what to expect. The other
school of thought is ito postpone tax
legislation with the exception of re-
enactment of excise levies, until the
next sssieon converting in January.
Final decision on saxes will be largely
based on the economy moves and the
total of the relief bill as it energies
from the House Committee.
Adjournment-Here again opinion
varies and adjournment dates in cur
rent discussions vary from July to-
October. It must be kept in mind how
ever, that great number of the mem
bers of Congress maintain homes in
Washington On a year-round basis.
Fer these, the idea of a break in the
scssio1-+hat is adjournment from say
July to September-is not so attrac-
tive. Others favor such a break in
what has Keen a difficult session, not
from the standpoint of legislation en-
acted. but from the standpoint of I'M
certainty and efforts to properly pro-
ceed with the legislative structure as
recovery nears. At the present time,
adjournment in September seem to be
the prevailing thought. But develop
merts might change this situation at
q moments notice.
Many of the questions can be pro-

TODAY's YESTERDAYS

May II, 1775-The British flag was
hauled down at sea in the face of an
enemy for the first time, when the
American sloop Unity captured the
British armed tender Margaretta, off
Maine
The worst defeats Britain ever suf-
fered on land or sea, and the last
invasion of the British Isles proper,
were carried out by Americans.
May II, 1820-Florence Nightingale
born this date, became one of the
greatest humanitarians against the
will of her wealthy, aristocratic fam
lily and the British army. All her
arguments about needless suffering on
the battlefield did not move the War
Office to agree to sending women to
the Crimea to nurse the sick and
wounded, until she made up elaborate
charts to show how many men could
be restored quickly to the firing line
by competent nursing.
All the girls named Florence today
owe it to Miss Nightingale. She was
named after a city, in Italy,
AMERICA AT WAR DAY-BY-DAY
20 Years Ago Today-A socialist
Congress opened in Stockholm. This
meeting of the Socialists of all the
warning and neutral nations in Stock
holm scared the nations which wants
to continue war until they gained COM
mercial and financial power. This
was not revealed until after the war,
in a chapter in the Kaiser's Memoirs
disclosing how the Kaiser and the
Papal nuncio, Cardinal Pacelli, dis
cussed the Stockholm Socialist Con-
gress and agreed that if it had the
backing Of any nation really wanting
peace, it would succeed and all the
credit would go to the Socialists.
British and French censors tried to
suppress every word about the Social
list Congress. Any news from Scand-
inavian countries had to pass through
British or French channels to get to
the Allied and neutral world.
However, American newspapers had
rot yet knuckled down to the censors
Of the Allies or of the government in
Washington. They told of the con-
fere'-ce, and they published that M.

kla-en of Copenhagen, went to Rus
