As a souvenir of the parade which was held in Nazareth, last Saturday, in honor of the World War veterans, there is nothing more appropriate than a post card showing different or- sanizations, societies and industries, as well as tha veterans of three wars. These post cards have been made by A. C. Bliss, of Easton, who is an expert in this particular work. Mr. Bliss arranged with Brody Bros., of Nazvreth, to display these cards and anyone may procure any of the cards by leaving their order with the pro¬ prietor of the Nazareth store, or by addressing Mr. Bliss, 429 Northamp¬ ton St., E>aston. The cards are attracting consider¬ able attention and there Is no ques¬ tion bat that all who irlsih to pur- ohass some of these sards should not delay If thsy szpeet their order filled promptly.

It can be enforced. It will be aeforced. The United States is really going to be dry. Instead of half dry or make- lielieve dry, as it Is today. These are the matured decisions of "Honest John" Kramer, Mansfield at¬ torney, Sunday school teacher, con¬ firmed dry, but no zealot, who Is the one person out of 100,000,000 in the United States chosen by Internal Re¬ venue Collector D. C. Roper lo tackle the biggest law-enforcement job this country ever undertook, and as far reaching In its social e«tects SS the Chinese abolition of opium several years back. Mr. Kramer hns spent most of bis time since his appointment in his law offlce, over a hardware store, just as he bas spent most of bis days except Sunday for several years. Telegrams are being delivered to blm at all hours. Some contained congratula¬ tions. Some were applications for Jobs, for as head of^the huge probl- bltlon enforcement machine tbat the government Is shortly to set up Mr. Kramer will have an army ef ktm- dreds of agents scattered from eeast <o coast. Why did the government, ont of tbe thousands of available men, go Inte Mansfield and choose John F. Kramer for fhe difficult place of prohibition commissioner? Serious consideration was girea to some twenty-flve possibilities. Tbs government wished ts have tbs en¬ forcement of prohibition, both ef war¬ time and permanent prehlbttlen nnder the censtitutlsnal anendmsat wkich becomes sffeetlve next Jaanary, ta the bsnds of Its frieads, but at the same time it did not waat te eatmat the task to a cealet. These things counted in Hr. Kramer's fkver: He is a naa of streng moral coa- victlons. He is rated as an excellent lawyer. He Is a forceful talker, and one ef the tasks of the prohibition commis¬ sioner win be to "sell tbe Idea" ef prohibition to the country. The first prohibition commissioner is IKty, of medium build and height Mr. Kramer is the product of an Ohio farm.

Hines stressed the fact tliat the proposal was tor the purpose of making re ud- Justmcnts necessary to avoid unjust inoqimlities In tlie compensation of diflV'ient ciasses of railway employes. It does not represent a departure from the stand taken by the railroad ad¬ ministration, nnd approved by fhe president, in opposition to wage in¬ creases for entire classes until the whole question of the high cost of liv¬ ing had been thoroughly attacked, with a view to Its reduction. The concessions made, which are in fhe nature of a compromise with the demands, nre for time required to make runs in e.xcess of what would be required if an average speed of 12% miles per hour was rauintalned. A provision Is Included that all arbitra¬ tion and special allowances now paid In various forms of freight train serv¬ ice are eliminated for the railroads as a whole. The time and a half for overtime does not extend to the pas¬ senger service. The increase would affect trainmen, firemen, engineers and conductors, but more particuliiriy those employed in the slow freight train service. These employes have all the disad vantages of spending a large amount of time away from home at their own personal expense, and yet have not the advantages of the !arj:er compen¬ sation enjoyed by employes In fast freight service and also In passenger service, making much larger mileage in the same or shorter length ef time. It is these employes making large mileage In a comparatively short time who are frequently accepted by the public as indicating the standard of compensation for men in all trala service. It Is estimated thnt with the aver age speeds now made by slower freight trains, the net cost of this pro¬ posal will be approximately W,000,000 per month. Undoubtedly, however, the proposal would have tbe effect of correcting many extreme cases ot trains being kept an abnormally long time upon the road, and to the extsnt that this condition can be se correct¬ ed the cost will be reduced. There are many other ^tnestleas affecting working conditions of train men which hitve not been decided and to which no reference has been made by Ur. Hines in public statemeata It is understood that the proposal will be accepted by the brotherhoeda as It virtually covers the conclusions reached during the recent conferences. Explaining his reason for rejecting parts of the brotherhood demands, Mr. Hines said that full time and a balf for overtime In road service was not justlflable as a punitive measure, because as a rule. It Is not economical to run heavy freight trains at a speed as great as would be necessary to avoid payment of the overtime sought. He believed,'however, that tbe plan submitted would mean the ellmluatlon of certain excessively long runs with a resultant decrease In hours of labor.

URGEST PARA1;E IN TOWN'a HISTORY That po«iti>onemonts are fatal to success seems a well established rule. That exceptions prove the rule is a saying equally well established. The parade ot Baturday last was one of tliB notable exceptions. The bright 8uu overhead, the crisp but season¬ able atmosphere, the tUousauds upon tlie streets to witness the pageant, the forming divisions at thear ap¬ pointed posts, Willi the patriotic fer¬ vor porvauing ind animating every one, gave abundant assurance that Nazareth did uul propose to let a little tiling like n poslpuuement kill a palriolio purpose uor chill a heat- ty "Welcome iipme." It was twenty minutes after three oclock when the signal was given and the parade moved down Alain Streel in the following order. Division marslials were:—Grand Marshal, .Major 11. J. F.

Tlio rollcall over, however, and clo¬ ture a fact, the Keputilicin manaRers took complete charge and swept every- ihinR before them. Rrseivation after reservation went tlirou).'h Just as It cnme from the committee, until the Democrnts apparently abandoned hope of making modificntlons and resigned tiiemselves to a passive resistance. Majorities ranst'ng from 11 to 22 marked adoption of ten reservations. In every case except one the Re¬ publicans voted solidly for the com¬ mittee proposals. They were joined on every rollcall by from four to nine Democrats. In all, an even dozen sen iitors of the administration party broke nwny diiriiis ibe day to vote for i-esorvations. The sole defection from Ihe Itepubilcan ranks was on the Shantung resrrvntion. Senator Mc- Cunibor, of North Dakota, swinging over to the opposition. The reservations adopted accom¬ plished tlies-e things: Effect of the Reservations. Forbid acceptance of any man¬ datory by the United States with¬ out the consent of congress. Take away from the league of nations all Jurisdiction over American affairs, such as immi¬ gration, the tariff, labor, bounda. ries and coastwise traffic. Preserve the Monroe Doctrine and refuse to submit to the league any question relating to that dec- trine. Repudiate the Shantung settle¬ ment and reserve full liberty of aetlen to the United States in any dispute which may arise between Japan and China under the terms of that settlement. Reeerve to the United States the right to veto any appointment by the president of any Ameri¬ can representative in the league of nations. Prevent interference with Amsr- ican trade with Germany by the repsrations commission, except by the approval of congreee. Refuse to permit the expendi¬ ture of Americen nieney by the league except when regularly ap¬ propriated by the eengreea Reserve to the United Statee the right to increase Its armament at any time wdtheut the consent ef the league in caee of threatened Invsslon. Permit the United Statee to ex- erclee Its own discretion In the mstter ef beyootting the nation¬ als ef covenant breaking states reeldlng within the United Statee. Safeguard the rights of Ameri. can shareholdere in German own¬ ed concerns seized in the United States during the war. Not the least elgniflcant of the de velopments, in the view of senators looking forward to a complex parlia¬ mentary snarl before final action on 'he treaty Is reached, was a ruling by Vice President Marshall Just preced¬ ing the cloture vote. He held that, should the administration senators vote down ratification with reserva¬ tions, as they threatened to do, they win hSTS opportunity later to get ac- •ion on a compromise ratification reso¬ lution. Senator Lodge served notice that h' would appeal from the decision of the hair. The Democrats will thus be faceil with a dilemma. If they decide to ote down the I»dge reservations the.\ annot be certain that these votes will not really mean the death of the reaty so far as the United States le (incerned. Washington.—Senator Oscar Under, wood, of Alabama, probably will be¬ come Democratic leader in the senate to succeed the late Senator Thomas S. Martin, of Virginia, in the opinion of many of the Democratic members of the senate. I<X)RMER NAZAREfTK WHO WJtfl ABROAD TO SPEAK ON BOHMX.

Washington.—Sixty thousand per^ sons throughout the United States are under the surveillance of the depart¬ ment of justice because of suspected treasonable sentiments, Attorney Gen¬ eral I'aimer states In answer to the request made by the senate for infor¬ mation as to what he is doing to frus¬ trate the efforts of the Reds who are trying to overthrow the government of the United States. A total or 222 foreign language pa¬ pers and lOo more in the English lan¬ guage, published in tho United States, are preaching and encouraging the overthrow of the government system, the attorney general assorts. Besides these journals, one hundred and forty-four papers printed in for eign lands and brought info this couU' try regularly and systematically are teaching sedition and revolution. The attorney general discloses that his staff bas prepared legislation in ex tension of tHe espionage act which will deal most aikerely with the mal¬ contents who art^ndermlnlng the fov. ernment. This supplementary legisla¬ tion must bo adopted, Mr. Palmer tells congress, before any substantial progress can be made against the troublesome element, now so active. In reciting some of the contributory causes to the program of violence which the Reds are engineering, Mr. Palmer lays emphasis on the radicals' movement to InHame the negro and te align him with the I. W. W., the Bel- sbeviki, the Socialists and similar agi¬ tators. The attorney general's revelatiens show that negro publications are urg¬ ing violence on tbe part of negroes, are advecRtlng the alignment of tbe negro with the Bolsfaevlki, and are holding before these credulous people the hope ef liberating Africa by Jola- isg haais with the Asiatics. The Palmer measure provides fer the denaturallsatlon of Americans who are found guilty of violating tbe provisions of the act, and provides a drastic penalty fur offenses against the American government. This pen¬ alty Is a fine not to exceed $20,000^ Imprisonment not to exceed twenty years, or both, and also provides for the deportation of aliens after tbey have served thetr sentence. Andrew J. Young, postmiister of Pen Argyl, died Monday evening at his home on Madison Avenue, that lace, aged 57 years, 4 months cuid 10 days. Mr. Young's death was caus¬ ed by the result of a peculiar acci¬ dent. A week ago on Sunday, while at Mooerstown, he wae struck in tbe forehead when cranking his automo¬ bile, and the crank handle slipped off. He did not appear to be badly hurt then, and was able to drive his machine home. A tew days later, however, he became ill, lalnd codgqs- sion of the brain was discovered. A blood clot developed, and this is said to bave caused his deanise. Mr. Toung had been postmaster of Pen Argyl for tbe post five yeirs. He formerly conducted a general store at Pen Argyl. Deceased was bom ia Moore Townehip, a eon of tbe late Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Young. He is sar- vivod by his widow and ¦a' dsug<bter, Miss Eva Young, at home; also by 2 sisters and two brothers—Mrs. Ja«ob Fehnel, of Nazareth; A. C.

Manj^senators were coneiderably dis¬ turbed by a statement coming from a source very close to the presidsnt that Mr. Wilson will not accept the peace treaty from the esnate with the Lodge reservatlone attached, be- csuse he will coneider it ss s vlr. tual rejection of the basic prinelpiss of the whole treaty. The evacuation of Budapeet by the Rumanian troops was completed. The Hungarian troope ef AdmirsI Herthy received an ovation en en¬ tering the city, whieh le new ps. trolled by the munieipal gusrd, un¬ der U. 3. Armv Colonel Ystes.

The cards are attracting consider¬ able attention and there Is no ques¬ tion bat that all who irlsih to pur- ohass some of these sards should not delay If thsy szpeet their order filled promptly.
