\ THE PEOPLE, BAKXWKLL, S. C. MAR SHAH WANTS NEW LAW toitense Should Be Suspended or Tor feited For Transporting Whiskey Orernville.—Passage of a state law .-equinng all motorists to have a li* cease granted by the state, this to be °uspenile<l or forfeit* <1 In the event tin druer is found guilty of transport ing whiskey, Is advocated by J. E. Marshall, for the past three (And a half years assistant district attorfr the Western district of South Carolina. Public sentiment crystalizing in a demand that the legislature pass such a law, will do much to enforce th** proh bltion law,-' Mr Marshall said. "I have given the sulifiect of prohibition enforcement mu* h thought during the time I have been connected with the , ffice (l f the district attorney. At the comlusion of about three •and a half years of service I am con- v«u ed that the taking away of a mans pri\ Lege on the highway will do more than anything else to bring about a higher regard for the prohibition law ami to tv id government offleals in its enforcement.’ Hriefly, Mr Marshall thinks the leg islature could greatly aid the prohi bition Cause by passing a law requir ing all persons who drive automobiles to have a license granted by the state. In the event any person is convicted either In state or Fritted States court of transporting whiskey .the state would have the Tight to take away this person's license for a specified period, Mr Marshall—th+n-ks if this license were annulled fop a period of two or three years it would tie a powerful factor in the enforcement of prohibi tion “I ’believe the man would value the privilege of driving an automobile so h ghly that whether he was an ordi nary who merely wantui his pint, he would think twice before violating the law ’’ ^******>****#***#*##*#*##* .1 Tibute to the Legion i« KKTAINLY if any orgunl- ^ zatlon Is in a position to 'recognize the value of mutual understanding between nations, it la the American Legion,” de clared William Mather Lewis, president of Loorge Wnshingtoii university, In an address on "Kiiucgtion for It ternational L’n ilerstMieling'' made before the National Ldm ation il associa * ♦ * ♦ * * * * * * * * linn a* a recent me* ■ting *'f that * iTiMni ration at Wasiiingion * * I ‘re Mi i*nt Math **r continm*d : * * •The linproi ••'! ;irc hltectur e in * \llri"U ' part' of * Mir nation. par >< * •tiellhlt l,\ in snitiII' • r « •ommun ities bell I > test Itiioni f t ^ the * •iTei't * \\ h i * I. tlo ir siui in Ftifope had 'M "pi II <*tir 'old t**!> Like W i SI*. t in* Tm 1 ;(•'o t-1 'unita!

By EDWARD W.

After being given a friendly reception by Prime Minister MneLonald, Pre mier Herriot and the other allied rep resentatives, the Germans were hand ed the documents comprising the plans adopted before their arrival and were requested to examine them speedily and make reply. Ibis they .did, and their ‘‘observations" regard ing tbe^ work of the conference, *J0,- (MMi words in length, A»Tt^ submitted the next day. In general, and so far as the I>awes plan is concerned.’these appeared quite satisfactory for a starter and it was believed the com mittees oT e’xpert.s to wTHch the Ger man documents were handed for care ful examination would be able to re vise and alter them so that they would aceof' 1 with the British and French proposals. The Germans re st rved the rigid to supplement their first statement after more detailed consideration of the allied propmd- t ions.

Ihspatchys from London said tlmt the French* already had .begun, negotiating with the Germans’ concerning the evncua 1 tlon of the Ruhr otferlng to^carry this out- If the Gernuins would agree to the continuance of German armaments by the military control mission Marx also demanded tlmt p*Ts"ns expelled from thd Ruhr be permitted to return, and the French were willing to con cede tins if tbc Berlin government, would agree not to persecute those Germans In the occupied region who had co operated with the forces of oc cupation. _ I >u\ Jd Lloyd George and jither po litical opi.onents of Prime Minister Macl >onuld liav" been attacking ids piollcy in inference, but-he 1ms held his own in the debates. He In formed tbe -house- of commons that If the conference were finally succi'ssfu-l, •these three agreements were to be ex pecti'd : 1.

Fndersecretary Pons* nby told the house that, regarding the claims of British bondholders, the soviet government had given':m ex pression of liahllity arid tin a.4surunre that the Russians would nV'gotlate with the bondholders. Prime Minister Mad "maid is ex ceedingly anxious fop consummation of these treaties with Russia, for the tra'de unions believe that they will mean more work and greater prosper ity for the British workingman. They constitute an Important part of the labor government’s fqretgn pol icy, which Is being vigorously at tacked by the opposition. Re-establishment of relations ’with Russia is a very live question in France. It Is favored by certain financial interests which seek control of the Chinese Kastern railway, and of course by the Comm ini 1st s. But the Socialists of France are against it and Premier Herriot has become lukewarm toward Russian negotia tions, preMjminbly t" obtain and keep Socialist votes. Idle Communist press blames Secretary of State Hughes, repeating the denied story that he told tlie premiers in'Loudon that so long as Kui"po eoimtcnaneed bolshev ism, America co with him and asked him to tile with Goniners a “statement of questions In which labor is rhietly Interested at this moment." All this, and more, was In a reply from Gontpers to Wll Hum B. Wilson, former secretary of labor, who had asked that the fed eratirin’s executive—eotmcil—defer ae.- tion on the proposed Indorsement of LnFollete. Matthew W'oll, spokesman for Bum pers, followed up this with a broad side directed at Charles G. luiwes.
