Scotland. WP While the world has celebrated another armistice day, this British naval base Ih writing the noisy final chapter of tho World war on the sea. The last of the scuttled German warships of Scapa Flow hns been towed in, bottomside up, from i'S parking placo on tho floor of tho ocean. Then years of barnacles havo been scraped from tho hull, and amid tho clang of sledgehammers and the hissing of torches, this once great Bhlp is being reduced to junk. ' Oddly, perhaps significantly, this final reduction of a proud fleet io junk metal is being completed at a time when statesmen are con centrating is never before on the problem of reduction of navies, 'End at a time" when evacuation of tho Ithlneland is ringing down an asbestos curtain on the vorld war as waged upon the land. When tho sailors of tho sur rendered German fleet opened the seacocks of their ships at Scapa Flow Juno 21, 1919, they created a problem ln salvage that taxed to the utmost tho ingenuity of modern engineers. . Only three light cruisers and somo smaller vessels were success fully beached by British crews "that day; the other scuttled war ships went to the bottom. One by one, however, they were pump ed full of air and floated down from tho Orkneys to tho dock yards here. Tho first to be brought to tho surface was tho destroyer V-70. a big ship of the 80 class which had. sunk ln 20 fathoms, in the center of the Flow, That left 28 destroyers. 10 battleships nnd five battle cruisers still to be salvaged a long job. After five years of laborious op-prations-it Is finished. Even the 28, 000-ton Hlndenburg, 700 feet long,, the last word, in German lyw&l construction nt tho time it was surrendered, has been towed Inand delivered to the junking crews. . TfTE MOONEY CASE AGAIN "Mrs. Georgo Monroe, a resident; of the mining district near Bel-! lalre, Ohio, .has signed aii affi davit claiming" that Lewis Smith, her brother, In a deathbed state ment seven years ago confessed that it was ho who planted the bomb Whjch took tho lives of ten persons marching In the prepar-. edness parade of 1!I10, for whichi Thomajs J. Mooney is serving a : life sentence In San Quentin. Her) declaration corroborates another, affidavit from Frank O. Stevens.' Inmate of the Dayton, Ohio, nat-l ional military homo, who states that Smith informed him in Hi lit' that "Tom Mooriey is not' doing Eleven world records for speed and endurance and more American stock car records than all other makes combined are held by ' Studcbakcr Eights.

Tho Monroe affidavit states that Smith admitted tho bomb planting for which ho was to bo "well paid.'' However ho received noth ing, and fled tho country. It should bo further investigated to clear up tho mystery, for it has long sinco been proven that Moon ey was convicted on perjured evi dence and is being kept In prison because ho was a radical strike leader in tho Industrial war that was raging in San Francisco at the time. Judge Franklin A. Griffin, pre siding Judge at tho Mooney trial, In a statement Issued Saturday as serted that Mooney Was found guilty on perjured testimony, built up by the district attorney jicd w.Oiy nyfiy police officials and "know! presented as perjured testimony! the prosecution." Tho surviving trial Jurors aro also on record With similar statements. Governor Young, however re fuses to act for clemency, the pres sure of Industrial nnd political leaders responsible for tho framed conviction apparently being too strong for a politician who owes his office to these Influences, to defty. Mooney Is a victim of war hysteria- and class hatred. His caso is a travesty on California justice. Salem Capital-Journal. NEIGHBORS SURPRISE , TALENT NEWCOMERS TALENT, Co.. Nov. 1C.
