But the people have recovered generally from the High Cost hysteria'and are taking things at their real value. ^ The agencies that have been strumental in forcing these losses on people generally, who are the back bone of the life of any and every community are seeing the error their way and it Is quite possible to evidence signs of repentance, togeth er with a desire to so conduct their affairs that there will not be agitation that will further upset things, The balance is restored. Men may i well realize that they have faced e worst of all declines and that the further process will be stabilizing rather than fundamentally disruptive. We all knew the war prices were too high but there was no reason for the stampede that caught many of the best business men in the net of over- • purchasing and caused a sacrifice thai e soon start-, W(Qs materially undesirable. ; ’Thomasville Is not fussed with any such propaganda.

His old and once rival neighbors, Great Britain and Russia, drawn together as allies in the world conflict, left him a free hand, and in 1919 Great Britain officially recognized the political In* dependence of this much-buffeted buf fer State, to whose rulers she had so long paid a fat annuity. “With an area of 245.000 square miles, Afghanistan is, next to Tibet, the largest country In the world that practically closed to the citizens of other nations.

In hearing ot this occurrence there are some # olks who will read with avidity and eclat the story of the lynching of a sic aloofness of the pious lamas at Lhasa. Amir Amanullah Khan, through his agents in India and else where, is in close touch with the world’s current events; and. as the last remaining independent ruler of a Moslem country, now that the power of the Caliph at Stamboul is broken, he wields a far-reacliing ’ influence throughout the Mohammedan world; also, because his land happens to lie just as it does on the map of the New York gas meter reader L. orldt , t is p i a i n that for a long time When they get back to this knee; breeches style we are going to defy]* that Ma-dam with peculiar violence. | n The outlook still continues to be good and there isn’t any old pessimist around here that can dissipate that sentiment.

That's Ihe reason we don't hear of | the deaths at the hands of mobs in I the North. They occur, for the peo ple are the same everywhere and there Is quite as much unrestraint and mob action In the heart of the regions where Southern prejudice is a practice as there Is in any section of the South. It’s all in advertising and Its about time that the South not only restrained its' lawlessness but demanded that its newspapers deal differently with the outcome thereof. There are those who respect laws all the time when they happen to ugree that they don’t interfere with their pleasures or profits.^ Bobbie Jones didn’t win the prize but he cam? closer to it than more than a hundred mijbty fine golfers including English champions. The parent that doesn't know where her daughter is probably also doesn’t know what she is doing, which seems to m«n that she doesn't care. Any country that is made by adver tising had something to back it up. And any country that is any good can accomplish the making fry advertis ing. Russia wants to become respectable by entering the Association of Nations perhaps. With Germany and Mexico we ought to be able to get up a rival organization right easily.

The arrival in Washington of an envoy from Afghanistan, now per haps the most mysterious country in the world, seeking the recognition oi his home land and the establishment of diplomatic relations with the Unit ed States, seems tp indicate that the policy of absolute isolation from the rest of the world long followed by this Moslem kingdom Is to be modi fied. Light on conditions in this lit tle-known region, is thrown by the fol lowing communication to the Nation al Geographic Society from Frederick Simpich and Haji Mirza Hussein; “The buffer State of Afghanistan, historic shock-absorber between Great Britain and Russia in middle Asia, years ago put up a ’Keep Okt’ sign, ‘This Means Yoi^ warning, to Till white men and Christians. The land Is ’posted’—to use a poacher’s phrase —posted against trade and conces slon hunters, against missionaries, and against all military and political hunters In particular. ' “Keep Out" Signs Up. “And the ‘Keep Out’ sign Is still up. Today the foreigner is no more welcome in Afghanistan than he was a hundred years ago. Forbidden Lhasa itself is no more exclusive than brooding, suspicious Kabul, the capital of this isolate, unfriendly realm ob fanatic* tribes of rocks, de serts, Irrigated valleys, and towering unsurveyed ranges. “For reasons of foreign policy, the Amir has long felt the necessity of secluding his little known land to the greatest possible extent from the out side world. Only a tew Europeans mostly British, but occasionally ais« an American-and, now- and then a- few Russians or Germane, have had py- to come he will be an. active force In the political destinies of middle Asia. Like Menelik of Abyssinia, Queen Lil of the Hawaiian Islands, or the last of the Fiji kings, this Amir, remote and obscure as hts kingdom is, stands out in his time as a picturesque world figure. Wives Distributed as Gifts. “From the Persians the Afghans go; the idea of marrying more than one wife; but, like the Persians, too. they have found, to their dismay, that polygamy is nowadays more expensiv than exciting. “Sometimes, when the Amir wants to favor his faithful officials with presents, or perhaps to play practical jokes in certain cases, he distributes women among them; but these ‘g.ft often prove so troublesome that no great degree of gratitude is apparent among the recipients. “Amir Habibullah Khan (who was assassinated in 1919) had a harem of over one hundred women, and amoug theae, strangely enough, were i few Europeans. The present Amir, Amu- nullah Khan, has but one wife. The women of Afghanistan are kept in more .rigid seclusion and are more closely veiled than the wome\ of any other Moslem land. Like the Arab, the Afghan consid ers it unnecessary and oven unwise that women should learn to read or write. No girls are admitted to the buzurr schools and no mullahs are employed to teach them, and Afghan istan knows nothing of women teach ers. Independence Brings Changes. “The trade of Aghanistan is moved entirely by caravans and is largely in the hands of Hindus and Tadjiks. There is not a mile of railroad in the kingdom, the Amir fearing that steel highways would made Isolation ini- possible. “Apart from rugs, a fe>v xylojr phs, some crude adornments’ for * omen, a little silk and felt, and a few sim ple woven tissues, no products of ra- tiveffskilled labor are on the market, And even much of what »s pi jduced in these few lines is merely an imita tion of Western and Eastern art. Small industires supply only th? most urgent needs of the lower class?* The rich people buy their luxuries from abroad, and the poor make shab by .shift with the cheaper fabrics. “The Amir keeps at Peshawar a political agent, who occasionally pays a visit to the Viceroy of India; and since Afghanistan’s formal independ ence of 1919, envoys have been sent to Persia and one is perhups now in Soviet Russia." "The married man that was spoon ing with another’s wife the other evening had better come in and pay us that five or else ," says the Thomasville Times-Enterprise.
