It will be recalled that the last conference was marred by ths outbreak of the "unofficial" Sino-Japanese fracas. This time it is ths refusal of France and Great Britain to accede to Germany's demand foi arms equality that is to blame for the threatened wreck of the confer ence. In replying to Germany's demand, British Foreign Minister Sii John Simon made it plain that while Germany was bound by the Ver sailles Treaty, it is the purpose of the conference to cut down the arma ments of other powers to a nearer level with Germany. The severe word ing of the British reply is said to have been inspired by the disclosure that Gsrmany had made overtures to President Earaonn De Valera of ths Irish Free State, as next President of the League of Nations Council, bid ding for his support at tha coming meeting in Geneva. The British stand was a distinct shock to Germany. But War Minister Kurt von Schleicher, said to .be the power behind the government of Chancellor Franx vor Papen, is believed to be determined to accept no compromise but to move towards rearming, even should France threaten armed intervention. Official sentiment in the United States Is ranged behind tha Fraaco British stand, it is said, it being tha policy of the Hoover Administratioe to urge the scaling down of armaments and in uo case countenancing the building up. „ What Cleveland Thinks Of New Catawba Bridge (Avenue Ambler in Gastonia Gazette.) “You folks down here In Gaston and Mecklenburg counties ought to be ashamed of yourselves for ask ing the highway commission to spend $400,000 to build a new bridge at Belmont,” said Editor Lee B. Weathers of The Cleveland Star to the Ambler as the latter talked with tha Shelby scribe in the latter’s of fice Tuesday. "It would be mighty nice to have it, of course,” he added, "but there are many other places that need roads lots more than you need that bridge. Take Cleveland county for instance. We never have been able to get anything in the way of roads much. Tlte Morrison administration didn't give us anything much be cause we furnished his opponent in the gubernatorial race. Then when our own Max Gardner got in as governor he was too modest and too anxious not to give the least cause for a charge of favoritism to wards his own people that he has refrained from using any influence with the highway commission in our behalf. Cleveland is a big coun ty and there are several stretches of road that we need and need bad ly but it looks like we can’t get them. Gaston Rnd Mecklenburg have always fared splendidly In the matter of roads and you ought to lay off awhile and let somebody else get sometmng. AH the Ambler's efforts to con vince the Cleveland editor that the bridge at Sloan's Ferry was a ne cessity. that it was dangerous be cause of its condition and the heavy traffic, got us nowhere. The Cleve land editor knew all those argu ments up one side and down the other but always came back with a "but look at Cleveland.” Of course the Shelby man did not convert the Ambler who still believes that the need for a new bridge at Belmont over the Cataw ba is really an imperative one for many reasons. A Card of Thanks We wish to extend our apprecia tion for the loving kindness shown us through courtesies and the beau tiful floral offerings at the death of our dear father and husband, William Williams. Discusses V iew Of Judge Webb On Home Brew Malt Greensboro News. i Judge E. Yates Webb, presiding over the western .district federal court at Charlotte, rules that the sale of home-brew materials by those who have reason to know what said materials are to be used for constitutes a violation of the na tional prohibition laws and that i the managers of stores engaging in! Such sales be brought before him. There can be no question that so: far as the spirit of the law Is con- j cerned it is being violated by w'ell-! nigh every hardware store, grocery or what-haye-you In North Caro lina. Judge Webb in the course of any afternoon's walk through a North Carolina city can see malt extract, bottle-capping machines and charred kegs enough to con vince him that a considerate part of the mercantile turnover in this state Is the direct result of Vol— steadlsm. And if ha will go farther and collect the empty, used fruit jars of the commonwealth, lie will quickly become of the opinion that he hasn't room enough at Atlanta, Chillicothe and Leavenworth for a fraction of those who have aided and abetted in non-enforcement It Is no part of our Intention to attempt to reflect on Judge Webbs sincerity of purpose in proposing action against respectable people who are taking profit from law violation. If we were the greatest repealer of them all, we could wish for nothing better than a showdown brought about by a direct frontal attack on home-brewers and wine makers. But the judge is heavily handicapped, or so It seems to us. in any sort of a finish fight against home evasion of the eighteenth amendment. Mabel Willbrandt and her grape growers have made it possible for the great American home to acquire the materials for wine-making legally and now al leged Sauterne. Chianti. Cham-1 pagne and Bourbon are being dis-1 tributed all over the country with the full knowledge of the govern ment and. almost we said, with its advice and consent. We believe Judge Webb to be as thoroughgoing a prohibitionist as he is a judge nnd withhold no hon or from him because of this: but tn tackling home-brew and its ac cessories by making an example of some of the merchants of the com munity he happens to be holding court, in he is getting little closer to the sea* of the trouble than King Canute did with his broom Cities may have their policewo men, but men on motorcycles con tinue to patrol the outskirts.

W. Shoffner, County Agent) The time is here for sowing: small grain. The need for fall sowing is more pronounced now than ever before in Cleveland County. Wheat is something that we depend on for food, for our family and livestock. Why put our poorest land in wheat and expect a good yield? Sow some varieties that have proven good In the county, such as: Fulcaster, Leaps Prolific or Red Heart. Next spring we will proVkbly be in need of corn or hay for the live stock. Oats and barley make a good substitute for corn. Oats sown In the fall and sown with care will yield forty to sixty bushels per acre. It Is time the oats were sown The Norton variety is best suited for fall sowing. The Pulghum va riety is a good yielder and is recom mended for spring sowing. If Ful ghum oats are sown in the fall, they should be put In a furrow so as to eliminate the danger of freezing. The beardless variety of barley is recommended—Tennessee 6. Oats and wheat should be treat ed for smut. The treatment for oats is farmaldehydc. In the treatment use one-half pint to fifteen gallons of water; soak thirty Tnmutes' or sprinkle thoroughly and eojer with canvas for two to eight hours. (Caution' This is poison > Treatment for wheat is copper carbonate. Use two to three ounces per bushel. Dry treatment: Mix in tightly closed container until each kernel Is covered with dust. (Cau tion: Do not inhale.) Ceresan can also be used. Same treatment can be used. For treatment of loose smut on wheat, use hot water treat men. Treatment: Put wheat In bags only one-half full and tied at top. Soak fourteen hours in cold water: dip In water 130 degrees F., for a moment, then soak for ten minutes In water 12t degrees F. The single bath treatment method: Put wheat in bags one-half filled, tied at top; soak for one hour and thirty-five minutes at 130 degrees F. GIRL THIN.
