"A yreat toll," he said, "was paid by iiit' allies in the year when we were in pieparation to enter the war. , "If we expect further payment in j money we will be demanded that the , allies pay the debt they owe us twice over. It may be said by some that while this is a generous solution on our part of some of the difficulties of Europe, it is not right that the nation should forgo a contractual debt, that the government is the trustee of the funds of its people and must safeguard the financial interests of its citizens. But if the people themselves demand it, they have the right to sacrifice their own interest in view ' of a higher end possible of realiza- 1 tion. "We have alreadv manifested this . ? n ' i i spirit on a smau scaie in our History. The indemnity given to us by 1 China on account of the Boxer rebel- ! lion was found to be larger than the claims of our American citizens. Consequently, we returned $13,000,000 to China. * -J* "A similar action now on our part would not only give new courage and hope to Europe but would bring to our American people p.pain the same elevation of spirit which we experienced in the years of 1017 and 1918 during the World War. It is a gre.it day in the history of mankind when a powerful nation shall rise up and prove to all the world that it has a soul. "If we are wise enough and great , enough to do this thing we should i very carefully safeguard our generos- , ity through the demand that the nations of Europe should balance their budgets so as to wipe out the present , annual deficits. They can not do this, however, without a very substantial reduction of all their army and navy , appropriations. "I do not know whether to regard it as a tragedy or a comedy that we should in the present world situation be represented at the various conferences abroad by one whose function is that of a spectator.

In this way, and this way only ,as it ap- di pears now, can the great mass of the be farming' population be brought in as members of the co-operative assoca- M tions already in existence and hav- at ing a wide influence in obtaining better prices of the things raised on the >] farms. A start was made at Conway in this movement some tome ago. It is now going to be continued and in hi <uch a way as to take in the farther- \ est sections of Horry. W. E.

Although it was thought for a time lat six of the prisoners had been cut it of line and tied together and ion shot down before the procession ached the power house woods, the ?st account of this incident now has ihat the ?ix were str.mi.ieis who ad gotten through the b.arb wire and ere rounded up, roped together and larchcd through Herrin Cemetery. \en marched back out of Herrin and >ld to run. Gun fire brought one of uMn down, and he nulled the others FT their feet. Their nursuers then ashed up close and fired into them at distance of four or five feet. One of these men. Howard Hoffman F Huntington, Indiana, lived long nough to reach the hospital where e is credited with telling Doctor lack and the nurse th.at his throat ras cut and men jumped on him fter he was down. Another one of lese men told the doctor or nurse t the Herrin Hospital how, after ho ad fallen, one of the men stretched is head hack as far as possible so lat another might easily cut his imat. This man died without his ame being learned and he was burl1 with the other unidentified dead in le Potters Field at Herrin. At the Morgue. On the street in front of the morue in Herrin, the following day, the associated Press man, encountered tie mountaineer-like man who had eld him back from giving a drink d the wounded man on the knoll, isked when the inquest would be eld, the big man replied: "There on't need to be any inquest, everyodv knows they're dead." The dead rere first piled in a heap in a corer of the morgue. Later the clothng was removed from all the bodeies nd they were laid in a row and thus xposed wholly to view. Lines of nen, women, boys and girls filed hrough the morgue and ioked at the iarht. lAter some portions of the mdies wore covered. Here and there /as a hobdy so filled with small shot hat scarce a half inch square surace of the skin had escaped. The visitors did not hesitate to jloat over the "fine" work the mob lad done. One woman lending a title boy, exclaimed a* she directed his ittention to the lifeless bodies: 'Take i look at what your papa did, kid."

La Salle St., Chicago, told the same reporter that the cool-headed miners who were escorting the prisoners were outnumbered from the start by miners who wanted to kill. The leaders counseled against violence until the woods were reached, said McLendon. Fred Bernard, of Chicago, escaped by turning left when, as he says, the leader of the mob gave the command to "turn right." He was fired upon und fell uphurt. Pursuers ran up to him. He told them he had a union card i?i his pocket. He finally proved he was an Elk and was given assistance in escaping.

At the inquest held hv Coroner McCown, in Herrin on Sunday, June 25th, over the bodies of 21 victims of the massacre, no elTort was made to establish the identity of any of the nen who killed the unarmed prisoners. "Parties unknown" did the killing according1 to the verdict. * The Verdict. About twenty-five witnesses were oxamined by the jury and the following verdict was returned: "In the matter of inquisition over the bodies of decea.-ed held at Herrin, 111., on the 25th day of June, A. D. 1022, we, tho undersigned jurors, find that they came to their deaths by gun shot wounds bv the hands of parties unknown on the 22nd date of June, A. D. 1922. "We. the undersigned jurors, find from -the evidence that the deaths of decedents were due to the act, direct and indirect, of the officials of the Southern Illinois Coal Company. Wc recommend that an investigation bo conducted for the purpose of fixing the blame personally on the individuals responsible." The record also says that one m.ar was burned with a hot iron; that a hot iron was used to mutilate the dead. It was also stated this was true by Editor Drobeck, who described how the word "scab" was branded on Superintendent McDowell's body. Proof of a Plot That the massacre was the result of an organized movement is the conclusion drawn from the followinj statements:: "Tt was a seemingly well organizer remarkably sober, determined, resol ute aggregation of men and boy; fighting, as they put it in their owi words "to preserve the unions." is the declaration of Colonel Hunter Writing in the Williamson Countj Miner, the publication owned by thr U.
