MONDAY, JUNK -'G, 1922.
The assassination of I)r. Walter
lvathenau. German foreign minister,
in Saturday morning, June 24, may
mark tlie beginning of very radical
political changes in Germany. Re
ceili ly an attempt was mnue to murder
Scheidmann, the socialistic deniocratic
leader. This successful attempt
following so closely upon tin
heels of the attempted murder, may
I.ring about some very grave political
changes in Germany. The royalists
will gain nothing by this policy of
assassination. It will hut bring added
strength to the socialistic party in
Germany, a party already strong
enough to rule the country.
The overwhelming defeat of the
radical forces that favor recognition
of the Russian Soviet government
marked the closing session of the
American Federation of Labor convention
at Cincinnati Saturday. The
federation has stood for Americanism
thus for, and will always so stand,
certainly as long as men like Samuel
Gompers direct its affairs. The wildeyed,
crazy anarchist, the crazy Red,
will not, we believe, ever su< "ed in
enlisting any large following .n the
ranks of labor in this country. If it
were not for the large foreign population
in some of the larger centres
of population, Reds would have practically
no following in the ranks of labor
in this countrv. It must h?? sjii?l
to the credit of organized labor in
this country that they have been loyal
and they have stood for Americanism
and their stand has been the outgrowth
of tht attitude of such men as
Samuel Gompers ami other leading
figures in the ranks of labor.
We are awaiting the report of al!
the subscribers to stock in the cannery
who promised to get one additional
subscriber. "Each one get one
or take another." That will "put
over" the enterprise. It is asking
only a little cooperation. It ic no
gn at t.aik that has been put upon each
subscriber. If you do not feel like
seeking for one subscription, 'phone
us that you will double your own subscription.
We must be ready to begin
operation by July 15. It is going to
necessitate cooperation and the spirit
of team work to carry the enterprise
to success. Will you not help?

i Pay up or Cancel Debt
St. Louis, Mo., June 25.?The problem
of requiring payment of the allied
debt, or cancelling it, is "the
fundamental question, upon the
answer to which will depend the fu
ture of our own commercial and industrial
welfare, and that of the rest
of the world," Walter Lichtenstein,
I'h. D., the Chicago banker, said at
the convention of the Illinois Bank
ers Association here Thursday, June
22. I)r. Lichtenstein then presented
ao summary of both sides of the controversy
as voiced in a recent statement
from the (^hienfrn AK4iu>iatinn
of Commerce.
"Most of my time during the las*
months has been spent in making an
economic survey of this country on
behalf of the American Hankers Association,"
said Dr. Liechtenstein. "It
is evident that there is a much greater
feeling of hopefulness in th"
country. The most thoughtful observers
feel that we have probably
gone as far as we can in a rehabilitation
of our conditions unless we
can bring some influence to bear
upon Europe?as it is Europe which
is the sore spot?and I believe that
in the present juncture of affairs this
fact cannot be over-emphasized.
"With the exception of Great
Britain none of the European countries
are really in a position to bring
about a net reduction of their governmental
indebtedness to us in the
near future.
"The world has become more and
more interdependent, even though it
is indisputable that this general
i i*iith ic Incc ntinlipQ)iln r\ fVtia nniin_
try than to any other. To quote
from a recent speech of Mr. Reginald
McKenna, the very able chairman of
the London Joint City and Midland
Bank: 'One nation, and still more a
large group of nations, cannot be
broken up and impoverished so as to
destroy its ability to function, without
throwing the entire machine out
of gear . . . The trade of each country
is linked up with that of the
whole world. Our own trade cannot
recover its pre-war activity whilst
so many countries continue in their
present broken down condition.' And
he wel lexemplifies that world-tradeinterrelationship
by showing that if
Russia, for instance, fails to make
purchases of tea in China or India, as
formerly, the result is to affefTct unfavorably
the capacity of those countries
to buy cotton goods from England,
which in turn leads to a reduction
of the purchases of raw cotton
by England in the United Siat.es,
and that again reacts unfavorably on
England's business of shipping, narking
and insurance."
Fishing Licenses
Cause Trouble
Vladivostok, June 25.?The action
of the Japanese government in notifying
its nationals that those who
held fishing rights along the coast
of the Maritime Province last year
should lish the same grounds this
year and would be protected by Japanese
warships despite the fact that
the yhad no licenses for this year
from th<? Vliiilivnchik <*fwernm??nt. Vi;>?
caused a considerable stir here. The
Japanese claim was that the Japanese
had no opportunity to renew their
licenses, the action for which was
being held when the Japanese could
not be present.
Premier Yeffrenoff of the Priamur
government refutes this. He says the
auction which had been postponed live
times at the request of the Japanese
was finally held on May -1th under
the condtiions laid down in the agreement
between Japan and Russia. He
announced that his government would
also send fishery patrols out to protect
the Russian fishermen in their
rights to the grounds being fished
by the Japanese so there seems to
be a prospect of a clash when the
season opens.
Representatives of the Vladivostok
Hoard of Trade have gone to Tokio to
lay the complaints of the Russian
fishermen who purchased the leaseholds
before the Japanese government
in the hope of starting negotiations
to settle the disputes. Japan1
is said to be quite willing to negoti-'
ate if no claims for compensation are'

Want to Reduce Wages
Sydney, N. S. W., May 0 (By Mail).'
?The colliery proprietors have de- ;
cided to apply to the Arbitration
court for a reduction of one third in
miners' wagjcs, according to announcement.
Rules that the proprietors will seek
to have the court promulgate include!
six days work a week if the manage-'
ment requires; the hours of all surface
employees shall be calculated
exclusive of meal-time; hours of un- ^

last man descends until the first man
ascends in each shaft.
The miners have expressed oppo-1
sit ion to the proposals, declaring that'
the companie can reduce the price,
of coal without reducing wages and
: till make a good profit. Mass
meetings of the miners have been
caled to consider their proposition.
Labor Does Not
Demand Beer and Wines
Kansas City, Mo.. Juac 26.?The
assertion that labor demands beer and
light wines was declared to be "unfounded,"
by Wayne B. Wheeler, general
counsel and legislative superintendent
of the Anti-Saloon League of
America, in an address before the
convention of the International Sunday.
School Association hire today.
"On May 1G," said Mr. Wheeler
"a test was made in the .'13rd District
of Pennsylvania, now the greatest industrial
district in the United States,
with its steel mills, factories and
mines. Seventy-live thousand dollars
was expended by the beer a.id wine
champions to defeat Congressman
Kelly, who is an outsiand ng advocate
of prohibition. He was renominated
for congress on the n.'puV.?vn.? ticket
by a majority of 11,&U0, V>y a vote of
three to one on the Democratic ticket
and unanimously on tin prohibition
party ticket.
"Seventy-eight United States senators
ar.d a majority of congressmen
come from states where die state itself
has prohibition even ? no per cent
beer. A senator or congressman whq
voted against the standard maintained
by his own state for law enforcement
does not deserve the support of
law-abiding citizens. Senators like
the senior senator from M ssouri, who
'
have fought law enforcement measures
and spent their time in abusing
and misrepresenting these measures
enacted for the public good, have forfeited
all claim on good citizens.
"Thus far we have established two
facts: Prohibition enforced is a succtss,
and even when only partially enforced
it is better than the license system.
The following results prove itDrunkenness
has decreased more than
ene-half. Those opposed to prohibition
admitted, after a survty made recently,
that consumption oT beveridge
liquor has fallen off 70 per cent and
that the number of drinkers is reduced
over 17,000,000. Crimes related
to liquor have fallen off ma
terially, and alt existing crime induced
by drink proves our contention
that alcohol provokes crime and
should be eliminated. Nineteen hundred
and twenty-one was the healthiest
year in the United States. Liquor
as a contributing factor in poverty is
now negligible. Over $2,500,000,000
wasted for drink has been turned into
useful channels. Bank deposits and
savings have increased, and the net
increased wealth of the country last
year was $8,000,000,000.
"The attempt of the liquor interests
to nullify this law is a challenge to
red-blooded Americans. The higher
the individual in social or business
life, the greater the responsibility
that should be attached when he defies
the law of the land.
"The Eighteenth Amendment was
adopted by twenty-three twentyfourths
of the states, a greater proportion
than ever voted for the ratification
of any other amendment. It is
therefore entitled to proportionately
greater respect."
Suffragets Take Advantage
Of Police Regulation
Tokio, May 29 (By Mail).?The
suffffragets of Japan have been quick
to take advantage of the new police
regulation passed by the Diet and
which came into effeflfct on May 10,
permitting women to take part in
political meetings, which has heretofore
been prohibited. On the evening
of the day which the prohibition
wa si if ted the women of Kobe held
their first meeting in the Y. M. C. A.
hall, they having accepted the hospitality
of men as there are no women's
organizations owing premises of
their own.
The hall was filled an hour before
the hour set for the meeting, about
one fourth being women and the rest
men, equally divided betwe'en supporters
and opponents of the women's
J cause. The latter interrupted re;
peatedly but Madame Ehizko Sugai
managed to get through her speech
in which she demanded equal suffrage.
"For 2,000 years," she said,
"Japanese women have been held
| down by the weight of three so-called
I virtues: to obey parents while un|
married, to obey husbands when married,
and to obey the son after the
husband is gone. Under the false
morality of virtuous wife and wise
mother, she has been robbed of her
social privileges."
She denounced Japanese politicians
I us "double tongued monsters who
promise the people much but are always
legislating for the privileged
classes" and declared that the police
abused their privileges subjecting the
people to control which lacked all
common sense. Giving the vote to
women would awaken the people to
a sense of their political responsibility.
The women of Tokio and other
cities waited for the first Sunday after
May 10 when they held similar
meetings. The Tokio meeting was
largely devoted to a paper by Mrs.
Kikue Yamakawa, advocating the
adoption of a Soviet form of government
and lauding the Bolshevik rale
in Russia.
Boy's Body Found
In Bottom of Pond
Anderson, June 23. Thomas Roach,
a young hoy about 12 yeras of age.
was drowned Thursday, the body being
found in the bottom of a pond
near Williamston.
A young playmate saw the clothes
of the boy on the side and, upon trying
to find the owner, could not and
gave the alarm. It is supposed that
the boy went in swimming and had
cramp but, as no one was with him,
it will never be known just how he
was drowned.
