Newspaper Page TextReceives Recognition From German University / •' V :: >' ■- ' \ / ..■ J L y^X*'- "" ■ ■■ XJ Mr. William E. Weiss. The University of Cologne, Germany, has just paid to Mr. William E. Weiss, of Wheeling, W. Va., one of the founders and General Manager of Sterling Products (Incorporated), and now Vice-President and General Man ager of Drug Incorporated, an unusual distinction by bestowing unanimously npon him the title of Doctor Philoso phiae Honoris Causa. Mr. Weiss is the first and only American to be so honored by this world famous German institution. This mark of preferment came to Mr. Weiss in recognition of his efforts to further the industrial relations that have extended over more than a decade between the Directors and Scientific and Chemical staffs of Ger man and American Pharmaceutical firms that are prominent t iu interna . tional industrial affairs. During the past few »years Mr. Weiss Ims been a frequent visitor to Europe and is a recognized link in Strengthening commercial friendship between the old and new continents, a truth emphasized by the action at Cologne.

Q<mmraxakj v 7 Buildina Development of' City as Business Matter As away of pointing out the rela tion of business profits io municipal improvement, Ernest T. Trigg, chair man of the civic development commit tee of tlie Chamber of Commerce of the United States, propounded these six questions to the organization at its annual meeting: 1. Ilas a poorly lighted, badly paved business street any relation to the prosperity of the merchants who do business on it? 2. Has the congestion at a freight station, due to badly planned thor oughfares or uneconomical ly lighted terminals, any relationship to the pros perity of the shippers and the receiv ers of tlie freight who use it? 3. Have obsolete or inefficiently ad ministered municipal services, tire and police protection, traffic regulation, tlie common Utilities, any relation to tlie prosperity of the business con cerns in a city? 4. Has the inadequacy of iterurban car and bus lines and of tlie highways, which are the channels of communica tion between tlie city and its produc ing hinterland, any relation to tlie prosperity of its banks, of its stores and its other business interests? 5. Ilas tlie health and contentment of the workers any relation to Hie prosperity of tlie concerns in which they work? G. Has the knowledge, skill and mental attitude of a people, their ca pacity for good workmanship and their willingness to work to capacity, any relation to tlie prosperity of an industrial nation such as ours? All of these, he declared, are mat ters of civic development and as such should be tlie concern of business. Furniture for Garden in Attractive Forms Garden seats, archways, pergolas and garden furniture in general form attractive central features for the summer garden, ami if placed now plants may be trained to grow over them before the season is ended. The designs of a good deal of the latest garden furniture are taken di rectly from many famous English and American gardens. The furniture is available in enduring woods which re sist weather and time in high degree, particularly if kept freshly painted. Fences and gate posts, designed to match tlie other pieces of garden fur nishings, also are now available. They may be ordered in knock-down form, ready to be erected by a carpenter or the handy man about tlie house. Plan for Enlargement Those who are building with a lim ited purse in hand can seriously con sider the advisability of erecting a house which is capable of future en largement. For instance, the family may wish a six-room house, with two stories, and bedrooms on the second story. They cannot tifford this, however, so they decide to let the second story go unfinished for the present. This is easily possible by placing a bedroom and ball on tlie first floor, together with kitchen, dining room, and living room. Thus the comfort of a four-room apartment is afforded with the added joys of one's own home. The second story is left un finished and later on the two bed rooms upstairs, with a second bath, can be finished. In this way a com fortable, well-equipped two-story home results, and because it is built over a period of several years, tlie pay ments are not arduous or painful to meet. For Home-Modernizing Eight cities have signified tiieir in tention of establishing local branches of the home-modernizing bureau, an organization recently formed for the promotion of home remodeling and improvement. Industrial groups interested in building will co-operate in the home modernizing campaign in the follow ing cities: Minneapolis, Indianapolis. Kansas City, Topeka, Buffalo, Atlan tic City, Omaha and Oak Harbor, Ohio. Tbe movement is national in scope and it is expected that branches will soon be organized in other cities. Headquarters of the new bureau which is backed by thirty industrial groups, are in Chicago. Guard Against Fire The evils of fire-inviting construe tion have received tremendous pub licity of late., Our annual fire loss is estimated at $500,000,000. Builders and owners are coming to realize that all construction should be truly fire resistant, whether built of wood fully protected or of incombustible mate rial. The superiority of metal lath and plaster protection for wood studs and joints has been recognized for years through general knowledge of the material and successful stopping of fire in many buildings. Prepare the Garden One of the most Important consid erations in building up a soil for fu ture vegetable growing is that of im proving the physical condition by the addition of organic matter or humus. This is done by turning under manure jr other vegetable material. THE BULLETIN, IRWINTON, GEORGIA. I—Francis M.

NEWS REVIEW 9F ClEEfinWlS Secretary Kellogg Goes to Paris for Signing of I Treaty to Ban War. By EDWARD W. PICKARD SECRETARY OF STATE KELLOGG has sailed for France to take part In the ceremony of signing tbe multi lateral anti-war treaty which lie has negotiated with the great powers. The signing will take place in Paris on August 27 and the accompanying pomp and circumstance will be worthy of so notable an event. Mr. Kellogg Is accompanied by Mrs. Kellogg and William H. Beck, his private secre tary. Before sailing he let it be known that he will transact no other official business while abroad, set ting at rest the persistent rumors that he would discuss naval limitation and other international subjects with for eign officials. Before returning to America the secretary expects to make a short visit in London and to go to Ireland. I’resident Coolidge, addressing the convention of the Wisconsin American Legion at Wausau, described the Kel logg treaty as the brightest hope for International peace the world has ever seen and declared that if it had been In existence in 1914 the World war would not have been started. He con tinued : “While it would be too much to suppose that*war has been entirely banished, yet a new and important barrier, reasonable and honorable, has been set up to prevent it. This agree ment proposes a revolutionary policy among nations. It holds a greater hope for peaceful relations than was ever before given to the world. If those who are involved in it, having started It, will finish it, its provisions will prove one of the greatest blessings ever bestowed upon humanity. It is a fitting consummation of the first decade of peace.” Soviet Russia hoped to be invited to sign the Kellogg' treaty with the great powers, but Mr. Kellogg said no to this proposition and if Russia signs It must be along with the minor na tions. The Soviet firess was bitter over this “snub,” asserting that the capitalistic powers did not wish the Soviets to sign for that would hinder them from attacking the Bolsheviks. It was said at Riga that Latvia and Esthonia, which are constantly arrest ing agitators plotting to overturn their governments, are hesitating to sign the pact, since with a neighbor like Russia they would like to know what guarantees and means would be pro vided by the signatory powers to main tain peace. WAR glouds that were hovering over central Europe blew away when Marshal Pilsudski addressed his Polish legionnaires at the reunion in Viina. Ten thousand of the vet erans were gathered in the city which is the constitutional capital of Lithu ania but is held by Poland, and it had been feared the meeting would be the starting of active warfare against the Liths. But the Polish dictator was exceedingly mild In his address, his only provocative statement being: “Viina remains mine. I received it as a present from my soldiers. They fought for it and gave it to me, which was a very nice thing to do.” Later, reviewing the parade of the legions, he remarked: “Ten years ago we were worried about w ilna, but then we were weak. Now we ait. strong.” WITH the Croatian and Serb Agra rian deputies absent, the parlia ment of Yugo-Slavia ratified the Net tune conventions with Italy by a ma jority of only one vote, and then ad journed. This action, however, by no means ends the trouble in that coun try. {The opposition asserts the con stitution calls for a two-thirds vote for treaty ratification, and it is gen erally admitted the Nettune conven tions give the disaffected Croats more power in their demand for home rule. At the same time the treaty leaves Xtaly with no excuse for interfering In the Yugo-Slav internal affairs. The Croatian peasants’ party in meeting In Zagreb, declared that Stefan Raditch, their murdered leader, re mains “the president of the party, al though dead,” which is interpreted to mean that his spirit still dominates his countrymen. In Rome the ratifi cation of the Nettue pact was hailed as an auspicious sign of tlie opening of an era of friendly and mutually profitable relations between the two nations. ONE of the most Interesting events of the week, though it was given but brief mention in the newspapers, was the action of the Argentine cham ber of deputies canceling the entire war debt of Paraguay to Argentina, amounting to 10,000,009,000 pesos or more than $4,200,000,000. There were indications that Brazil also would cancel its claim against Paraguay, which totals an even greater sum. The cancellations probably will do much toward rehabilitating the credit of Paraguay, which has been at low ebb owing to the huge debts which never could be paid. Jose Guggiari was in augurated President of Paraguay. MUCH space was devoted during the week to comments on Her bert Hoover’s speech of acceptance. President Coolidge warmly congratu lated the candidate on the address,, and naturally the other Republican leaders found it a political document of remarkable force and clarity. Nat urally, too, the Democrats did not think so much of it, and some of the farm organization leaders called it “disappointing” because it did not out line a specific proposal for agricul tural relief, though he promised* that a definite plan for this would be forth coming. Others of the farm leaders highly commended tbe section on agri cultural relief, agreeing with Frank O. Lowden, who , said: “Mr. Hoover frankly recognizes that the most urgent economic problem in our nation today is agriculture; and that the solu tion of this question constitutes the most important obligation of the na tion. No farm organization could ask for more in the way of general ex pression.” The drys were fairly well satisfied with his statement on prohibition, that he does not favor repeal of the Eight eenth amendment and stands for effi cient enforcement of the laws enacted thereunder. The wets in the Repub lican ranks hoped that he would later elaborate his views on the liquor ques tion, revealing them as more to their liking in the matter of modification. On Thursday Mr. Hoover left Palo Alto for southern California, planning to pass thence through New Mexico and Arizona, up into lowa and then on to Washington. OFFICIAL notification of Senator Curtis, Republican vice presiden tial nominee, drew a big crowd at Topeka Saturday and the ceremony was thoroughly enjoyed by the sen ator’s relatives and fellow townsmen. Senator Simeon D. Fess notified Cur tis of his nomination, and the candi date accepted in a characteristic speech which was given wide circula tion through u radio hook-up of many stations. GOVERNOR SMITH, before com pleting his speech of acceptance, conferred with eleven farm relief ad vocates from seven states, and also had important talks with such party leaders as Carter Glass, Josephus Daniels, Senator George of Georgia and Senator Walsh of Montana. Mr. Daniels, bone dry, predicted the South would remain solidly Democratic, but frankly told Mr. Smith that if his ac ceptance address showed a more moist tendency than the people of North Carolina believed in, the normal Dem ocratic majority in that state would be considerably reduced. Despite his own views on the liquor question, Mr. Daniels is warmly supporting Smith, and laughed away the thought that if elected he would nullify prohibition. Hope for a joint discussion of the candidate’s record between him and Dr. John Roach Straton faded last week. The preacher insisted that the affair should be held in some large hall and Mr. Smith said it would be in Calvary Baptist church, where Doc tor Straton first made his attack, or nowhere. The governor told the min ister he had no intention of conduct ing a political debate with him but wished to aopear in his church to re- ply to statements “traducing” the gov ernor of New York. The preacher who has not won much support for his methods, says he will go ahead with the “debate” in the biggest hall he car, hire, whether or not the governor ap pears. OHIO Democrats nominated Con gressman M. L. Davey of Kent for governor and the Republicans selected Myers Y. Cooper of Cincin nati. Both had Anti-Saloon league support. For senator the Democrats nameij Charles V. Truax and the Re publicans renominated Senator Fess Candidates to fill out the unexpirec term of the late Senator Willis are Congressman Theodore E. Burton, Re publican, and Graham P. Hunt, Dem ocrat. In Hamilton county Charles P Taft 11, son of Chief Justice Taft, was defeated for renomination as county prosecutor. ABOUT seventy thousand trainmen and conductors of Western rail roads are in process of voting on a proposed strike following the failure of a joint conference with their em ployers. The result will be mads known September 2 and union leaders say the ballot will show that 98 per cent of the men favor a strike. The roads will be given until September 4 to come to an agreement with the men on their wage demands. J. W. Hig gins, chairman of the employers’ com mittee, declared the men rejected an offer of arbitration, thus violating the spirit and purpose of tbe Watson- Parker railroad labor act. One of the chief obstacles in the way of agreement which previous con ferences and arbitrations were unable to surmount is the so-calied "double header” rule, which limits the tonnage and number of cars of trains where two engines are used, and which the railroad heads insist be removed. NEWS of one of the minor trage dies of aviation comes from Rio de Janeiro. Maj. Carle del Prete, who, with Captain Ferrarin, flew from Rome to Natai. Brazil, was injured in a test flight of a plane at Rio. It was found necessary to amputate his right leg, and he failed to recover from the operation. HENRY L. STIMSON seems to be doing very well as governor gen eral of the Phillipines. Last week he appointed his cabinet from members of the Nationalist party, which car ried the last election, and the ap pointees were immediately confirmed by the island senate, 'n a statement Senator Sergio Osmena, Filipino lead er, said the appointment of the cab inet "shows that the government of the Philippines has returned to nor malcy,” and further “this happy ter mination of a past crisis, this begin ning of a new understanding, has been attained through an adequate inter pretation of the Jones law and de partment reorganization act.” NOT only Florida, but all the other southern Atlantic states suffered severely from the series of violent storms that came up from the Gulf ot Mexico. SHIP-TO-SHORE mall service with the aid of amphibian airplanes was successfully established when a plane loaded with mail was catapulted from tlie deck of the French liner He de France 450 miles off the port of New York and reached land In about four hours. The saving in time was about 12 hours, and this is expected to be increased. Eventually the same serv ice will be established at the French end of the run. The extra charge for this is quite heavy. FAR from yielding to Japan, the Na tionalist government of China has sent another note to Tokyo reiterating its intention to abrogate the treaty of 1596. The Japanese government is just as determined to refuse revision until China acknowledges the validity of the old pact. Japan has scored one big point in the postponement of the proposed union of Manchuria with Na tionalist China. American Minister Mac Murray went to Mukden from Peking, and in Tokyo it was believed he had been instructed to investigate the Manchuria situation personally and report to Washington. The Jap anese think he is not unsympathetic with them in this matte' What Will do, Or J W' ; When your Children Ciy for It There is hardly a household that hasn’t heard of Kastoria I At least five million homes are never without it.
