The sympathy, and assistance if it is needed, of the rest of the country will go to that sectien which has been devastated and where many lives have been_lost as the result of the tornade, It is in that part of the coun- try where the -broad plains lend themselves to the ravages of the great winds, and where the possibil- «ity of sue¢h a death'dealing and de- structive foercé is constantly to be feared. Life in the toernado belt cannot be so much more secure than in those sections . whére earthquakes menace lite and property. What is apparent- 1y a prosperous, contented, peaceful part of one or more states téday may Bé a shambles tomorrow through the quick and merciless actions of cyclone 6r éarthquake. It is a condition which has to be faced and the chances taken, If sufficient warning can be had it is péssible to gain certain un- dergraund havens for protecting life! byt such forces are not bound to sie- nal their coming, and if the section happéns to be one where such visita- tions havé not beén fréquent enough 1o make the provision of safeguards seem advisable losses may be greater than ever. There are many times when. the steep and rugged hills of this part of the country bring forth complaints, but nothing could be more effective fér wind breaks than these same hills and ridges. Perhaps we are too of- ten inelined to dwell moére upon the beauty of our hiffts and valleys than we are to appreciate the protection Which they give us from the dangers .of o¥lones such as has just visited the middle west. In fact we are apt to be teo eritical. of what seems to bé a bit troublesome at times with- out taking inte consideration the off- steting benefits but if we stop to think there aré plenty of things in every day life fér which we have sufficient reason to be duly grateful but which .we too often fail to give‘a, thought. MORE TREES NEEDED. "It is getting time for the Arbor day proclamations and some of the gov- ernors already have issued them, and it ie néted that in Pennsylvania-Gov- eérnor Sproul has selecteq two days, April 16 and 23, fér the setting out of traes, mot solelv for shade purposes but with* the idea of reférestation and the protection of ' the sources of streams. Thé proclamation is one that might well be followed in other states, for it §s perfe~+1» evident that there is need of glving incréased attention to not only the improvement of the leoks of streets and increasing the appear- ance and value of property through trees but to the restoration of forest lands. And in this direction the im- pertance of the action can well be im- pressed upen the minds of the elders as well as the schosl children. In all probability in many places the pracfice of setting out trees as meémorials te those who, gave their lives in the world war will be con- tinuéd. It is a custom that is mak- ing a widespread appeal and béing quité generally adopted and this is the season wheén it may well be un- dértaken, But when the governor of Penneyl- vania adéls to the customary procla- matién the appéal for the planting of trees on dentided land, whether clear- ed By fire or axe, on uhused land and on. hillsides, anq sets forth that that staté alréady has a million aeres of forest land which it i3 protecting and developing for futyre use, it can be appreciatéd that h° makes his proc- lamation include mmore than the school childfén and the city dweller, the park boards md\he highway author- itiés. There is much more that sheuld Be d6né than can be done on two days but the combineq efforts of those in- terested on the dates designated can 46 much not only in increasing the tréés and the future timber . supply but in areusing interest in othere. IMMIGRATION PROSPECTS, When reports show that {mmi- grants aré entering New York at the raté of 2,000 a day, even though that is the number frem Italy and for only two days, it indicates that even if ihése in this céuntry are leaving for otheér shores because of prohibition thére aré many who are willing to eéme in in dpite of it. The fact of the matter is that prohibition has been in effect for such a short time and the opportunities for getting 1i- quér even now are such _that it is im- prebable that those who may be geing to Burepe or other countries are act- HWatéd by the law against intexicants, The large immigration i, res at this season of the vear seem to bear out the claims which have ceme from censular representatives to the effect that such could be expected and cer- tainly ever since last summer the ngmber of immigrants hasbeen stead- ily increasing. With close to a thous- and a day during January and Feb- ruary, the two days’ arrivals ‘in h, with another claim to the ef- that 10,000 a month were leaving ftaly indicates what can be expectéd as soen as weather more condu- re to traveling arrives.

TERMS. Much Has beén said ‘about France being militaristic, within the past few ‘weeks, but thé révelations which have been Made &s the result of investi- gationg carried on in Germany make it evident that it has go6d reason.té look ~well to its prétection until lllt'h a time as it really feel that it is not going to be descended upon by anothér well equipped and rapidly moving army from Geérmany or else- where, France apparently ‘takes the posi- tion that it must look ::lit for itself. In doing so it has gained the assur- ance of others that it will get théir assistance in case it ig attacked. At the same time it is being calied upon to use its forces in carrying out the after-war nws~-siwiants and it was intended by the terms impobsed upon Germany that the danger of attack from that diréction would be elimi- nated by requiring a greatly reduced army and requiring it to give up its quantities of war material. It is now a yéar and a half since the armistics was signéd and past the time fixed for the car) & out of cer- tain of the terms but it is found that Germany has noét complied, that the time has been_ allowed té pass and it has not been forced to live up to the terms. There were cértain medifications, made at the request of the Gérman government. This was doné to make conditions easier in that country but it was not péssible tb construe any such letting up to meéan that othér terms would not haVe to be respecdt- ed. Whether Gérmany thought that it _did or not, it is plain that it has net been eager to do its part and the failure concerns thé very material that would be réquireq should it ever want to make trouble for its neigh- bors, or should it undertake té resist the enforcement of the peace téfms. France may be chided for looking out for its safety but it must be given credit for not having the wéol pulled over its eyes by the former enemy seeking relief from its agreements. At the same time Germany should real- ize that it needs to repair its reputa- tion for keeping promises. Nothing could be expected to foster militat- ism in France more than the way in which Germany dodges the peace terms. HOME RULE. Many more than Iréland and Eng- land are interested in the outcemeé of the home rule bill now under débate in the British parliament, For a long period of time there has been a fight for home rule. Within a compara- tively brief time there has beén a de- mand for . independence. TFach de- mand has been opposed within as well ag outside of Ireland. That con- dition exists today with this changé that while there appears te be . no prospect of independence there is. a disposition to grant home rule. That part of Ireland which stood out stren- uously against evén home rule is now ravorable to the proposition advanced, but that section which had prévieus- Iy been clamoring for home rule is now urging fréedom. The Irish home rule bill as it now $tands provides briefiy for the estab- lishment 6f two parliaments in Ire- land. One to include thé larger part of Ireland where home rule sentiment strongly prevailed in years past, and the other to includé Ulster. Bach parliament would govérn its respec- tive section until such a time as they could agree to come togeéther under oné parliamént. It would bé a long step in compliance with the home rule plea, leaving the opposing fac- tions to themsel¥es under home rule, until they could see the advisability of getting togethér under a single government. With the matter approaching a vote in parliament conditions in . Ire- land are far from béing what they ahcmlle be. Lawlessness is ratpant and fiant ‘of all autherity, and should be thé rheans of hastening aé- tion of some kind to change :the sit- uation there.

Senafors and rep- résentativés are home attexding state conventions and primaries to elect delégates t6 the conventions. Others are drawing their first long breath 6f rest since the treaty discussion begun a month 6r more ago. And what with committ sittting as “investigators, or conducting important hearings on pending bills, the floor of both senate | and housé have been deserted, while the gallories, crowded to suffacation last week, now show only a few seat- tered listeners. Its been a week of complete réaction after the excitement of the great treaty fight. Not a word has come from the “white house -con- {0 ceérning the proposed action of the president. He now takes a short daily ride in he “white house” limousine accompanied by Mrs. Wilson and Dr. Grayson, but thus far he has made no move to receive the long line of wait- ing' dipplomats or take up for action other pressing matters of presidential routine. Apparently the sen: intends to give the président pleaty of time -to decide on future action-regarding peace with Germany before it takes up the Knox resolution declaring the war at an end. 1f the President keeps out of the'game and shows his intention of putting the case béfore the people by allowing the war to technically continue although in reality at an end, then céngress will act. The President’s war-time powers of immense maghi- tude continue till war is formally de- clared at an end. Apparently he will be in no hu¥ry to return té peace time restrictions, and relinquish the greatest power,_ ever placed in the hands of one man, unless he can do so on his own terms. But with demands com- ing from all over the country that con- gress end the war, if the President de- lays action, it is unlikely more than a féw weeks will elapse before the senate and houseé act on bills already intreduced for that purpose. The Knox résolution in the senate and the Tinkham resolutionwin the house pave the wa it may be that those introduced later Will eliminate much of the verbage of the two now before congress and simply declare the war at an end. Senator Lodge has held an important conférente with the chairmen of the Bouse foreign relations committee and otheérs inciuding floor leader Mondell and Campbell of Ka chairman of Pulés, and has been assured quite apg- tien in the house would follow, if the senate put through such a measure. Here is what is now predicted with appdréntly a good chance of success, as soon as the President has heen given time to take the iniative and failed to do 0. > A simple reSolution separate from any peace treaty, v be put through Senate and House by large majorities. It would be in the form of a joint résolution and the outlook is that, shofild the president veto it, a two- thirds vote of congress is ready to over-ride the veto. . A resolution out- lining a foreign policy might not be attémpted until after official declara- tion. that the war is ended. All the Bryan followers and many of the demdcrats not lined up with the Nebraskan are countéd on to support such a measure. With such a resolu- tion would come the, termination of war-time législation, ind thus aid in putting the business of the country quickly back on a peace time basis. Democrats are appealing to the president to come out from under cov- ér and make his intentions known, and thus relieve them from the pre- sent embarrassment of following a leader who does net point out the way. The president still has the power to resubmit the treaty with its league attachment, in which case it would un- deubtedly meet the same fate, unless he withdraws his instructions to democrats to vote against it with the Lodge reservations. It has been sug- gested the president may introduce a declaratioh of his own to end the war, or introduce another treaty, but 80 far that rumor cannot be sub- g the it nation- Floot leader Mondell |’ o y. for others, an’\ln s and satisfaction; the to me séemedl about to s the matter with you, ?

HEAVILY TAXED AUTOMOBILIST. Jewett City, March 29, 1920. Sunday Bonfires. Mr. Editor: We read in the paper this morning that the fire department was compelled to make three rung vesterday to extinguish incipient fires, which only for their prompt responses might have resulted in conflagrations. In all three -of these instances, thé fire was started by some non-church- going people who become very indus- trious around their premises on Sun- days, in cleaning up rubbish and starting bonfires—thus endangering their own and their neighbor’s prop- erty, and making an expense to in- crease the general fire taxation—of course not all these bonfires turn out fatallv~—but some have, and in our city, too, but the cost of making three runs of the department in one day must be considerable. not to speak of the alarm which causes the innocent victims whose property is near to the fire. If there is no law forbidding this reckless plaving with fire, within the ecity Ilimits, justice stantiated or any inkling of the presi- 4would say that thesé people should at dent’s inténtions be gained. “All dressed up and no-where to go” is'theé plight the banned radicals find| themselves in. Transportation diffi- culties in Europe are holding 1p 400 casés of n;leportan.icm according to Commissioner of Immigration Cami- netti. “We are ready to deport 400 or more aliens, but I cannot say when we can ship them” was his térse re- ply to questions. The route through Finland is now closed because of trou- blés between Finland and Soviet Rus- sia. The port of Reval is closed by ice, Petrograd is also ice bound, fo- land is said to object .to the passage of the deported people through the port of Danzig, and other usual means of getting undesirables back to Rus- sia are also cut off according to re- perts here, Coupled with ths present high cost of living comz demonstrations that dinners costing only 60 cents and cofm- posed of the “best in. the land” can be easily furnishéd. The Red Cross gave such a dinner here a few davs ago to @demonstrate the fact. The Red Cross dinnes insisted of steak, pota- toes, oyster piant, tomatoes, biscuit and butter, celery, pineapple saladl, apple ice and spdnge cake. The food was purchased cocked and served by the diet class of the Red Cross. There was however, no pudding with old fashionéd wine sauce, for Prohibition Commissioner Kramer has handed down an edict cancelling permission to use wines and brandies, etc. in pudding Sauces, as the privelége is said to have been abused. Anyhow, whatever the cause, the licenses so issued have been withdrawn.

In thoésé 49 vears, hé had been a minor military officer undér Washingten; repeatedly a mem- ber of thé législature, a member 6f the Continéntal congréss and of the Na- tional Senate; twice governor of Vir- ginla; minister t6 France, Bngland and Spain; secretary of state and war at the same/ time and finally president for two terms. Without wealth ér family influense, with a slow, commonplace mind, with no gifts as a speaker; with a modest, awkward présence and plaih, unpol- ished manner, this very ordinary man plodded up the ladder of amblition to its topmest rung. How? By sheer force of his rugged, couragéous, in- dustrious, honest, loyal charactér—a triumph of the homeély common virtues, Although he. failed in some of his most important tasks, Monro#&’s fail~ ures were forgiven bapause’ they were honest mistakes. The fidieuls and thé disgracé brought upon him by th& most spectdcular episodé of his™ une dramatic life wéuld have buried for- ever a man more brilliant and less sin- cere, This remarkable scene was efacted on the highly theatrical stage of: the National convention at Paris directly after the Reign of Térror and the fAll of Robespierre, whén France was the outcast among nations. At that moment, Monréé appeared as the en- voy of the only sistér republic and, to let all the world see that the Revolu- tion had At least one friend left on earth, the president of thé conveéntion melodramatically folded the rustic Virginian in his arms. As an ardent believer in republi anism, it i§ true that he had Wee speaially chosen by Washington to soothe the savage breast 6f the Rev- olution. But ig, that fratérnal em- brace thé new minister was somewhat infected by the Gallic fervor of His welcome. Regardless 6f England and other jealous monarchiés, which were at grips with the ‘revolutionists, he overstepped the bounds of neutrality by warmly applauding Franee and her armies and, as if the countries were open allies, he présented an American flag to be hung on the walls of the convention by the sife- of the tri- color—red flag 6f revelt in that day Washington and the conservatives were outraged by the coddiality with wiich “Citizén Monroe” had taken the red hand of revolutionary Frafcs. Aany were so unreasoning ds to cen- sure, him ~even for an act 6f mercy whica only did credit to his heart. Having found Thomas Paine in the siiadow of the guilloting, hé had taken that friend of our own révolution from prison into tI American legation, where hé nursed him back te health. After two vears he was recalled for his zeal and came home in a rage of indignation. Passing by the gate of Mount Vérnon without paying his re- spects to ‘Washington, he paid them instead in 500 pages which hé pub- lished in defense of himself and in de- nunciation of the administration. Neverthéless, the discredited diplomat Wwas sent to Paris again by President Jefferson in a few years, when he came away coveréd with sufgeess and with the treaty for the purchase of Louisiana under his arm by a fitting prelude to the Monrog doctrine, twenty Years later.
