Germany has been granted delays and it hes secured modifications of tha de- mands upon it. There have been threats of a further Invasion of its ter- ritory in accord with treaty terms be- cause it has not kept up its payments. It Germany could show that it had done its utmost to meet its obligations there would be a different disposition manie fested, even by France, but when it has refused to resort to the taxation of its people and has apparently depended up- on the cry of inability to pay to slide from under the reparatton payments it sn't able to arouse a great deal of sym- pathy, on the other hand the effort to get the impossible from Germany is obvi- ous. When it can show, however, that is doing its best, that it is doing as much as others in the way of taxation d is ving to meet the demands; it knows fully well from the manner in which its various pleas for leniency have been considered that it will get falr treatment. France cannot forget. It has too much etaring it In the face to think of such a thing. It can hardly be expected tq tol- erate the idea of lightening the burden on Germany, because of Ger- own acts, and yet if Germany 1t up to its promises it has nothing to fear. When the last of this month arrives Germany is due to make another pay- ment to ths alles. The bizg qtestion now is, what is it going to do abcut it Just at the present time efforts are un- derway to eecure a large foreign loan for Germany. Frem that much help would be obtained. When France threat- ens to send an army into German terri- tory it is apparently determined to ob- taln results and to prevent any unjus- tified stalling. For the good of all such a move should be prevented and, if re- mains to be seen what the next few days can bring forth in thut direction. MEMORIAL TREES. In the establishment of memorials for hose who have rendered patriotic ser- vice, and those who have made the su- crifice for country many and eiaborate methods have besn followed. It has been desired that it should be fitting in all respects and yer it cammot help being felt that a remarkably fin type of memorial has been adlcpted in many instances by the sotting out of trees and the dedication of memorial highvays, 5 A recent Instance of the kind is fur- nished by the people of Bristol, R. I, who have dedicated an avenue leading the state scldiers’ home to the mem- y of a former commandant -of that wtitutfon. There were 24 memorlal z the highway planted in hon- r who had participated which this coun- but at the time of memorizl highway 93 more added to that num- ber, each being for some soldier or sail- or who had rendered valiant service to he state and country. These trees are going to become more and more attractive as the years pass ind as time and blight or pest makes it mecsssary to remove them it Is to be expected that they will be replaced by sthers so that there will be a perpetual living monument to the memory of the herolc dead On that particular highway thers s room for trees to stand for each wd every deserving ome, but here ara slenty of opportunities throughout even he small state of Rhode Island to es- wblish more of such highways that all who are entitled to a memorial tree might have one erected to their mem- ory. And while they are serving me- morial purposes they are also serving to make more attractive the highways of the cities and the state, Considerable attention was given to the memorial tree idea directly after the war, but it is evident from time to Mme that the excellence cf the plan ls making its impression, It is a me- morial that carries a much different ap- peal than a shaft of stone, DISCOURAGING TOURISTS. People are continually being urged to avoid killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, and yet new instances arise from time to time which indicate that such advice gets little attention, F There Is this year a large and steady stream of visitors to Europe. From past experiences “Burope has always looked with favor upon such a condition. It has meant much additional business and of & character that gave assurance of large profits. Thus under ordinary conditions the flooding of Europe with thousands of Ameficans was greatly to be desired. Perhaps that is the attitude now in some countries but Bavaria doesn’t take that that view. Instead of ‘making pans to get the benefit of such business it s taking steps to keep it away. The wstimate has been made that there will be & third of a milllon Americans through Germany this summer. tions of exchange are such that they bave reason to mccomplish it at & mueh lesy expense than ordinarily, but if there I the desire on the part of the Bavar- Wis to get as much of the money from |are golng to the Americans as possifie their oppor- tunity weuld seem to.lle in encourag- ing their coming and keeping them spending rather than diseouraging their presence, 2 It might be expected that the hotel keepers. the merchants, theater mana- gers .and those operating points of’ in- terest would boost their prices. '“That wouldn't be a hew stunt by any means and to a certain degree would be ex- pocted. Golng over there with the idea of spending they would anticipate some- thing of ‘the kind, but when certain of the cities decide to enforce the pass- port regulations to the letter, they re- fuse to qocept vises which are good for the rest of Germany and inmsist upon registration with the police it would ap- pear that they were intentionally driv- ing good business away. Instead of giving the visitors a welcome that would naturally be expected in anticipation of the business that-would follow, citles of Bavaria are determined to kill that goose which has hitherto been regarde as the one laying the gnlden eggs. —_— A BTRIKE PREVENTIVE. What will become of the proposition that has been advanced by the operators for the settlément of the coal -strike and the ending of similar conditions for a considerable period in the future is uncertain. For the good of all con- cernad there should be an early adjust- ment and it cannot fail to be appre- ciated that when a settlement is reached it should be along lines that will do away with the strike in the coal flelds which can be figured on with & large degree of certainty under present condl- tions. That the operators would dec‘line to grant an increase of 20 per cent .in the wages of the miners was a foregoue conclusion. Such & demand, it would appear, was made to Dermit of bargain- ing in connection with the perators’ de- sire for a reduction in wages instead of seriously expecting to get it. The operators are seeking a cut in Wwages to be applied to the reduction in the price of coal. The cut aimed at s based upon the reduction in the cost of living the same as in other indus- tries. Hitherto agreements ‘' have run from one to two years, but under the op- erators’ proposal they would have rt cover a period of five years as regardg working conditions but there would be annual conferences for the purpose of adjusting the wage rates. This would mean that a joint committee of opera- tors and miners would meet the first of February to determine the wage rate to be effective the first of April, with the understanding that if an agreement had not been reached by the first of March it would be referred to a commission to be named by the federal court. The aim is to do away with the strike and then arrive at an understanding in accord with' the facts, without interrup- tion to industry, without loss to the miners and without threatening the pub- lic with the possibilities of a coal short- age or making it pay the losses entalled by the strike. Some move of the kind should work out to the advantage of everyone involved, directly or indirect- ly. it e A FINE EXAMPLE. Attention cannot help being given to the attitude which is taken by that Georgla sheriff who, after locating the young colored man who had escapsd from a lynching party, announced that certaln ones of that mob were known and that warrants for their arrest would be made. That is & bit unusual in Georgla. There is of course no assurance after such arrests are made, if such a thing actually takes place, that they would be convicted and punished for the law- lessness which they had planned, but it gsomething o ihe credit of that sher- and the community he represents that he is dlsposgd lo prosecute those wito had arranged to commit murder. Cccasionally ihere is a county in the south where icl ers of law and Jider are found. stand out in conspifvous contrast those other communities where large public gatherings witness burnings at the stake or the taking of human life in other but unlawful ways. It can be appreciated that such a sheriff will en- |eounter his troubles in iaw enforcement, but suck an. example deserves to be heid vp before those who are lax and spineless, and who by their disregard for right and justice are indirectly sid- ing and abetting a deplorable type of meoh rule, Tn nc state is there greater need of |Just such respect for the law as this sheriff has displayed than in the state of Geergia which holds an unenviable record for lynchings and shows little inclination to improve.

CLOSE TO AN AGREEMEN ON THE STEEL MERGER New York, May 24—Three com- panies in the proposed independent steel merger—Republic Iron and Steel, Mid- vale Steel and Ordnance and Inland— are close an to an agreement, but the other two—Brier Hill and Steel and Tube of America—are still some distance from the rest, Thomas L. Chadbourne, counsel for the interested companies, declared tonight He said that he was still hope- ful that the merger would effected on a five company basis, but explained that if that plan fell down, there undoubtedly would be a consolidation of the three larger companies. The Trumbull Steel company, he ex_ vlained, was mentioned as an intergral part of the merger when the plan was first proposed last fall, but later dropped out, expressing a desire to be considered later if circumstances were favorable to its conclusion in the combination. No opposition to either the five or three company merger on the part of the gov- ernment was anticipated, he said, be- cause in the one case the combined ton- nage production was only one-sighth or the country’s total and in the other case, only one-tenth. This, he pointed out, dl?oud of any possibility of the proposed consolidations becoming com- binations in restraint of trade. “T'll explain'deduction,” said the young law student, airing his knowledge in the home circle. “In our back yard, for ex- ample, is a pile of ashes.

It Is Now Possible for You to Come to This Store, Buy a Regular $1.98 Package of Nuxated Iron for 85 Cents, Use It for Two Weeks, and If at the End of That Time You Have Not Received All, and Even Greater Benefits' Than You Expect, Simply Bring the Wrapper Back to Lee & Osgood Co., and We Will Cheerfully Hand You Back Your Money. Norwich people may well ask how we can afford to make this remarkable “Satistaction or Money Back” offer. Medical examinations by physicians all over the country show that an amazing number of people lack 100% fron in their blood. At a recent conference, Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly physician of Bellevue Hospital (Out Door Department), New York, and the Westchester County Hospital, said, “Without iron, the blood becomes weak, thin, pale and watery. In many people this so seri- ously weakens their vital organs as to lead them to believe that they have heart or stomach trouble, kidney disease, nerve force exhaustion or some other serious ailment. I have had people come to me thinking they had heart trouble, because they often had pains and palpitation of the heart, sudden dizziness, faintness or spots before the eyes. In a great many of these cases, the moment iron was supplied, all of these symptoms disap- peared.” We make this offer because Genuine Nuxated Iron contains true organic iron like the iron in your blood. So many people are deficient in iron who would surely be benefited by this remarkable remedy, that we recommend that you come right to Lee & Osgood Co. and get your bottle of Nuxated Iron. Use it for two weeks, and note the improvement in your own case in strength, energy and endurance. surprised at the results, just bring back the wrap your money without question.
