CHECKING THE RED TERROR
The red. terror Is not a ghostly
upectre. It has bones, flesh and
sinews. It has controlled Rusria
for; almost two years. Hungary has
sow fallen under its sway; If it
gains tha upper hand , in Germany,
Europe east of the Rhine will be all
xed before autumn, Poland and Bo
hemia will Join the procession and
Italy will raise the red flag. If Cer
many gefea Bolshevik, the present
French government cannot survive,
because Its continuance In power Is
based npon the speedy collection of
hieavy indemnities from the Iteaten
foe. A Bolshevik Germany will not
pay and the cost of forcible collec
tion would be prohibitive. On the
ther hand, the imposition of impos
sibly large indemnities and the tak
ing of purely German territory will
probably drive Germany Into the
Windsor the nltra-radicals.
The- only, solution of the terrible
problem is the immediate organiza
tion of the League of Nations, whose
first task must be the restoration of
order in Europe outside of Russia
The spread of Bolshevism must be
checked at all costs. It can be check
ed by a peace based on Justice, a
Iace whose provisions will be back
ed by the united resources of Brit
ain. America and France, a peace
that will completely safeguard the
Hgbta of th racial minorities in
the new states, that will enable Ger
many to go back to work Immediate
ly to pay her debts, a peace that wilt
have the support of the right-thinking
masses everywhere evfcn if Its
moderation does offend the Jingoes
and chauvinists of all countries.
Such a peace was outlined In
President Wilson's fourteen points.

PROVIDES FARMS FOR
WORLD-WAR VETERANS
Not less than 25,000 farms on re
claimed lands will be made available
for Uncle Sam's discharged soldiers
and sailors unless the Sixty-sixth
Congyess again defeat Secretary of
thje Interior Lane's reclamation pro
ject. In addition to providing these
farms, the project will furnish em
ployment for many other thousands
' The reclamation bill, carrying an
Initial appropriation of 1100,000,000
for the reclamation of waste lands,
was one of the several important
measures killed by the Republican
filibuster during the closing days of
the Sixty-fifth Congress. This sum
will, It Is estimated, mak available
about 1,500,000 acres of land that Is
now waste and Idle.
Much of the land, upon lu ac-
fluisltion will hav.e to be drained or
irrigated to be made ready for cul
tlvation. It Is the plan to employ
discharged soldiers and sailors for
this work, and when the farms are
turned over to the homesteaders,
they will be ready, for Immediate
cultivation. Houses and barns will
be built by the government, and sale
to the soldiers and sailors will be on
an Installment plan extending over
forty years, with the privilege of pay
ment on shorter terms If preferred.
1 In addition to the land and build
ings, the government will advance
money to the settlers for the pur
chase of - machinery, livestock, etc.,
that his farm may be Immediately
workable. These advances will bt
at a rate of only 4 per cent
Thousands of war veterans have
answered the Interior Department's
qutationnaire, Indicating a desire to
take advantage of such an opportuni
ty to become farm owners.
WHAT SHALL I TEACH MY CHILD
Teach him that It Is better to die
than to lie; that it is better to
starve than to steal; that it is bet
ter to be a scavenger or a wood
chopper than an idler and a dead
beat; that it Is Just aa criminal and
reprehensible to wasfe Monday as to
desecrate Sunday; that labor Is the
price of all honest posseeslons; that
no one la exempt from the obliga
tions to labor with head, hands or
heart; that "an honest man Is the
noblest work of God;" that knowl
edge is power; that labor is worship
and idleness sin; that It Is better to
eat the crust of Independent pov
erty than to luxuriate In the richest
viands as a dependent. Teach him
these facts till they are woven Into
his being and regulate his life, and
we will Insure his success tho the
heavens fall.

TANK DRIVERS WANT
HIGHWAY ROUTE MAPS
And now tanks are seeking roa-J
Information.
The Goodrich National Tourlag
Bureau has distributed thousands of
road maps for the convenience of
pilots of every conceivable means of
conveyance, including horse and
wagon, automobile, truck,- motor
cycle, bicycle and . even airplanes,
but the most unique request for a
highway route map was received
last week when Mr. M. H. Laudon,
publicity director of the Central Lib
erty Loan Committee, Cleveland,
asked for maps for the drivers of
twenty 6-ton tanks.
During the Victory Loan campaign
sevedal battalions of these rugged
little scrappers will travel Into the
most remote rural districts In prac
tically every section of the country
demonstrating their stamina and
versatility. The Goodrich road maps
will not be used by the tank drivers
to guide them over the best roads,
but to route them by quickest route
to tH bad roads. A tank Isn't at
home unless either wallowing In
sticky mud or blazing a trail thru
rough, uncharted territory. It can
give its most impressive demonstra
tion under the very conditions that'
automobiles and trucks seek to.
avoid.

STORING OF LIQUOR
IN HOMES FORBIDDEN
Seizure and confiscation by the
states of private stocks $f Intoxicat
ing liquors accumulated In anticipa
tion of nation-wide prohibition will
be possible add probable after the
prohibition law goes into effect.
This Is the opinion of Wayne B.
Wheeler, general counsel for the
Anti-Saloon league. Altbo the league
has taken no steps to this end, Mr.
Whdeler believes the states them-
f-lv;C8 will take action, and the lat
est decision of the supreme court is
that the states have the right and
the power to prohibit possession of
intoxicating liquors Just as they
have prohibited sale and manufac
ture of liquor.
"The liquor traffic and its devo
tees," Mr. Wheeler said, "are re
ceiving hard Jolts from the courts
these days. The beginning of its
troubles came when the supreme
court sustained the interstate liquor
shipment law. Following that,! the
next body blow to John Barfcorn
was when the supreme court sustain
ed the law prohibiting the posses
sion of intoxicating liquors.
"The last decision of the court
holds that liquor legally purchased
after a prohibition law Is passed and
befoija It is operative may be con
fiscated. The supreme court did
not have to pass upon the question
as to whether liquor legally purchas
ed before the law was adopted could
be confiscate, but many of the state
courts have passed upon the ques
tion.
"The uniform trend of the decis
ions Is that the state may prohibit
th)9 possession of Intoxicating li
quor even tho it was purchased be
fore the law was enacted. These
decisions are based upon the fact
that the power of the state to protect
the health and morals of its citizens
cannot be bargained away.
"Even the liquor dealers are wak
ing up to the fact that liquor Is in a
class by itself, to the treatment of
which there is no analogy in the law.
In vew of these decisions and rea
sons which underlfe them the bibu
lous portion of our citizens, who aro
stocking up with large quantities of
liquor for the dry period, may have
their hop blasted. Intoxicating
liquors for beverages purposlse are
doomed."
What citizen is there In Ashland
who does not feel some degree of
self pride In its welfare? That can
not call to mind some meritorious
advantage which should be spoken
of to advantage whenever an onnor
tunlty Is afforded them? Who Is
there among our people who has not
the patriotism In their veins to
stand boldly up In defense of and
contradict any statement made that
he knew would prove Injurious to
the town and people? Who does
not wish to have It said of them
when they are gone that the town
and community In which they lived
has been made some better by them
having lived In it? ,
JUNE 13 LAST DAY
TO FILE RETURNS
Organizations ' and Individuals
generally are advised by Collector
of Internal Revenue Milton A. Mill
er to underscore on their calendars
June 15, thp last day for the filing
of returns of information, giving the
names and addresses of all Individ
uals to whom payments of salaries,
wages, rents, interest commission,
other gains, profits and Income of
$1000 oti more were paid during
1918.
An extension of time from March
15 to June 15 was granted by the
commissioner of Internal revenue for
the filing of these returns. Form;
1099, upon which reports must be
made, may be obtained from the col
lectors. Returns of information must
be accompanied by a letter of trans
mittal on form 1096, showing under
oath the aggregate amount of pay
ments. Tbtese forms also may be ob
tained from collectors. The penalty
for fallur to make a return on
time is a fine of not more than
$1000.
Just now there is altogether too
much solicitude on the part of par
ents as to what they will do with
their boys, which leaves the Impres
sion on the minds of the young gen
tlemen of the period that something
has got to be done for them, Insted
of encouraging the more manly
thought that they must do for them
selves. There is no reason to sup
pose that the channels to compe
tence and wealth are fewer and
more difficult than they were years
ago.

"Many months of comfort at little
expense" is the way Charles A. Pear
son of San Diego, California, sums up
his experience with Neolin Soles. Mr.
Pearson had two pairs of shoes re
soled with Neolin Soles.-and after
wearing them for twenty months
writes "I will have to get new shoes
sometime, but so far as the soles are
concerned, that time seems as. far
distant as when they were new."
This is typical of the experience
millions are having with Neolin Soles.
Created by Science to be durable,
flexible and waterproof, these soles
are an important factor in cutting
shoe expense. You can get them on
new shoes for the whole family, and
for re-so ling. They are made by The
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Akron,
Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heels
guaranteed to outwear all other beds.
