The above. are paragraphs fr)6m a dispatch sent out from
Washington yesterday j i
,An3 the remarkable thing is that the President of the
United States feels that he must jmake apologies to Congress
for assuming; that he is sane, arid represents as their chief
executive a sane people- p " ' fj"-- V" I"'
That he must be mealy mouthed and pussy footed about
presuming to ask Congress to take steps to join in a prelim
inary Conference looking to further conferences to arrange for
an 'international disarmament agreement -r
And because -the suggestion comes from the League of
Nations.; link a disgrace that the President' of the United
Statea must Jget down on his mjarrow bones and assume Ihe
attitude of a beggar, in asking fpir an act of common courtesy
and manifest decency in having "this country sit in on a meet
i ing of the representatives of all the great nations, of the
world to 'considermeasures looking to world peace. -
The great,majonty of the people of the United States, if
would pronounce themsejyes
M the matter, were put to ajvote,
in favor of this movement---
: " And,-further, if the peoplej of the United States were
given a5 chance to vote on the proposition of our country: join
- ing the League of Nations withi any one of the different sets
. ofreservatipnsrop before the Sen-
!... ate, they would overwhelmingly give their verdict in favor of
this country becoming a .member of that body.
Further; there is growing tap. in this country an all but
unanimous feeling of disgust over the fact that our political
?; leaders are continually putting the United States in the posi
"V tion of appearing to the rest of the world in an attitude of
.cringing and trimming-an hemming and hawing over a prin
ciple that appeals to mankind las a whole as right and just
and proper and safe and sane..,

' Why not sweep out of power all political leaders who
f make this country pose constantly as the jackass among the
nations? ; I .

ning down Kentucky moonshiners
a stern, suspicious man who
made liis own moonshine for fam
ily use because he wouldn't trust
bis eternal foes, the mountaineers.
So Ed F. Rice, a lad of only 21.
knew all about moonshining when
he came out of Ole Kafntuck 11
years j ago into Maricopa county,
Arizona, and married a pretty lit
tle girl out there.
Farming in the immeasurably
fertile Salt River valley, when
made possible by Roosevelt Dam,
struck his fancy, and he started
at that.
Now farming, even out in this
bright green valley a fertile gem
amidst Arizona's mountains and
deserts is hard work, and Ed is
young , and his wife liked pretty
things and oh. well, a mountain
man Just ain't no farmer, that's
all. - '
So Krl rot to making moonshine.
They made it hot for him. over in
Maricopa, and he moved, lock,
stock and barrel, into Pinal coun
ty, leaving his little wife in Phoe
nix till he got set up on the new
ranch, up at the head of Cotton
wood; creek, near Picket Post
mountain. .

Behind nim were 300 founds o"
