UNITED EFFORT (Continued from page one) or America,” said Willlama. "Thia Is partly because of the shortage of French workers following the war casualties and partly because of the ' 800,000 French workers at present under anus. "In Germany the worker is less well puid than before the war. In general his wages have hardly kept up with the 1.000 per cent increase in the cost of living. The middle classes, including teachers, small property holders and tbe federal employes in the civil, railway and post office services, have been tremendously hard hit, because their wages have hardly Increased more than 500 per cent. "It appears to me all wrong to say that Germany has got back -to normal. The real fact is that German milieu and mills are running simply because Germany has not yet started to get back to normal. Her goods are sold abroad simply by reason of the advantage arising from a currency which is constantly depreciating. Some day or other, Germany must begin setting her financial house *in order. The result of that will be a period of vast unemployment and unhappiness. “It is very evident that the present situation of unemployment is international in its dimensions and also international in its causes. "The situation will better itself with depressing slowness unless the various nations can make concerted efforts. International causes must be met by international arrangements regarding the limitation of armaments should greatly help by the saving of enormous sums of money. "But I should like to see Lloyd George or M. Briand or President Harding call an International Conference for the consideration of such factors in the situation as international exchange, international credits, tarigs, etc. “M. Briand expressed to me recently his belief that the diplomats of the near future would find international conferences on such subjects as the prevention of unemployment quite as essential to the happiness of their, peoples as the more usual problems of boundaries and other similar affairs. “Certainly nothing the world so plays into the hands of all the forces of unrest and revolution as unemployment.” - > ROTARY MEETING THURSDAY The Rotarians will meet at the Decatur Industrial Association headquarters Thursday evening at seven o’clock. A good program has been arranged by the October committee and every member should plan to attend.

"How I Can Make the Highways More Safe” is the subject on which children are asked to prepare essays.

Four hundred fifty statA prizes art being offered through the committee by tire national automobile chamber of commerce in the hope that pupils will be stimulated to participate. The prizes have an aggregate value of $5,000 and are distributed among the states on a basis of elementary school enrollment. Teachers are offered three national prizes, the first of which it SSOO in cash and a trip to Washington. The second and third prizes are S3OO and S2OO respectively. An enthusiastic response from every section of the country has greeted the announcement. State, city and county superintendents of schools are lending the weight of their influence to the campaign and bringing the contests to tho atten tion of pupils and teachers tinder their jurisdiction. Mothers clubs, civic organizations, chambers of commerce, safety coun cils and other organizations that are interested in the welfare of the children of the country are assisting the committee in the national campaign which will dominate with the observance of "'national safety week" December 4 to 10. The contests close Saturday, December 10, when all essays and lessons are to be in the hands of the principals of schools. After December 10 the best essays and the best lessons from each community will be choen by competent committee and then forwarded to the state committee to be designated by the state superintendent of schools, or other influental persons. After the best essays and the best lessons have bden chosen for the various states and territorial possessions, the state prizes in the pupils' contests will Us awarded and the manuscripts receiving state honors will then be forwarded to the committee in Washington. Arrangements are being made for distinguished educators to read the state essays and the state lessons and to chose therefrom the ones entitled to the national honors.

Dr. John J. Tigert, United States commissioner of education, who is chairman of the highway and highway transport education committee, has written the state and city superintendents requesting assistance. In his letter, Dr, Tigert said; “In order to reduce the appalling number of accidents on our streets and highways, I wish to call your attention to the safety «ducatiqnal prograp; ,of the highway and highway transport education cqmmjttfe. If not inconsistent with your '-policies,' I trust. w.e may have your hearty cooperation.” The committee, which has offices in the Willard building, is answering scores of inquiries daily from principals, teachers and pupil-. who have signified their intention of participating in the campaign.

FAST DRYING UP THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS Honololu, (By Mall)—The "okelogger" is on the run in Hawaii. He's having a hotter time than bis famous Unit cousin, the bpoHeggw, ll,e States. Governor Wallace R. Farrington Is on his trail and every officer of the Islands is after him —all united under the cry: "Boose must go!” The Hawaiian Islands, being American territory, are of course, 100 percent. amenable to the eighteenth amendment. But the "oke" hounds have been reluctant to admit that fact. Okojehao—familiarly abbreviated into "eke”—ls a local liquid dynamite, a brew long popular with some of the native and alien population and said to have a wallop considerably stronger than vodka, T. N. T. and Missouri moonshine likker all combined. It drives men crazy and wrecks health, authorities here declare. So Governor Farrington is leading a vigorous crusade to stamp out the llicit production and clandestine peddling of "oke” and those who know the islands predict he will win.
