Seattle, Wash. LAST \\FF!\ FOR CLEAN- This is the last week for Juneau to clean-up. One thing about Clean-up—nobody comes around for contribution to pay another guy to do job. Amid the endless fund drives, this is a welcome respite. Here is a campaign everyone can pitch into for himself. It i a challenge to every citizen to earn the satisfaction of making his own individual sur- roundings safer and better to look at. And the sum total of success is the generous satisfaction of having helped make Juneau a more beautiful and a healthier city What do safety and health have to do with it? Quite a bit, if you stop to think of it. The effect of a can of paint applied to fence to garage or house is mere cosmetic and psychological than hygienic, per- haps. But even with paint the sanitary results are not | apt to be overlooked. And when it comes to ac- cumulations of dirt and trash the health considera. tions are paramount. Such refuse makes ideal breed- | ing ground for germs and for germ-carrying vermin and insects. less of what England MONDAY, MAY 23, 1919 ft at the P (Washington Post) It seems that the business of sports forecasting is Whether it was because of a the equine population, cators last NoYember. failure to sample enough of whether merely an inability to appraise feeling at the grass roots, most of the sporting fraternity could hardly have been more wrong on the outcome of the Kentucky Derby.

At that famous meet a good, solid horse proudly named Crom- well was the favorite, and only the Daily Worker, probably because of a slight ideological bias, R an Hero to be the winner. To cap the climax, our own Nats, who, according to authorities, seemed to have a permanent lease on the cellar, whipped the world champion Cleveland Indians recently to make it seven in a row. Altogether, it's enough to make one lose all faith . let alone crystal balls, and at this chancey n to doubt the identity of tomorrow.

TROOPS OUT OF GERMANY This brings Acheson’s instructions down to the most important ques-; tion of all—whether Alied troops | are to be withdrawn from the; country which, in twenty brief years, fomented two terrible wars. The answer to this is not so ea Nevertheless it certain tha Foreign Minister Vishinsky will pro- pose that the troops of all coun- tries be withdrawn from Germany and go home altogether. rnis would mean that Russian ops could withdraw within the Polish border—then march back into Ger- many with no trouble whenever, they wanted to. It would also mean that American troops would pull back across the Atlantic and could not return to Germany within weeks, probably months—all de- pending on Congressional debate. To answer this question the State) Department sent to Germany, George Kennan, head of its strat-| egy board. Kennan came counter proposal that U. S. and! British troops return to the (wo embarkation cities of Hamburg and | Bremen, with French troops re- turning to the French border. The Kennan plan was then re- viewed by the Joint Chiets of Stait, who frowned on any evacuatidon to Hamburg and Bremen.
