this correction. "Purchases and pledg?

PRESIDENT DECIDES TO GO 'lO
GEltftl ANY.
Washington, Nov. 7.?President
Wil i 's plans lor attending the'
peace conference are all matured,
with (hv exception of the day und
hour of sailing. His departure is cer
tain early next week.
It is entirely probable that the
first announcement of the personnel
of the American delegation will be
made in the President's address to
the opening of congress, which will
he delivered Monday or Tuesday. At
the same time, the president may
luku occasion to make a .statement to
the country, as well as to congress,
on his going to Europe, something no
it her president has ever done
'I he most important announcement
that has yel been made in connection
with the official plans for the peace
conference came today. It was that
?here would he absolutely no censor?
ship on the news which the American
newspaper correspondents send back
home. At the personal request ol
President Wilson, both the British
.mil French governments will remove
all censorship on al! American news?
paper dispatches telling ol" the delib?
erations. Furthermore, to facilitate
the transmission of news to this
country, He" government through its
recently acquired control of the cable
lines, will ^ive news preference ir
transmission second only to the gov?
ernment official business. .News will
take preference over all commercial
business on the cable lines.
George Creel, chairman of the com?
mittee on public information, also an?
nounced today that the committee's
mnchiiiery in Paris would exercise
nothing whatever approaching a cen?
sorship on the dispatches telling of
;l.e progress of the conference. Al
the committee's facilities .Mr. Creel
?aid. arc In be devoted to helping Un
American newspapers correspondent*
? I the news back home.
Until two or three days ago there
?vere grave doubts as to whether any
Amern an newspaper col repsondentai
a! all would be permitted to accom?
pany President Wilson on the trip.
There was, however, to be no rcstlic
lions on the passage of newspaper
men to Prance by any means they
might lilld available.
Upon Mr. Creel's representations it
finally was decided to inctud a cor?
respondent of the Associated Press
ami correspondents of the other press
associations in the president's official
party oboard the liner George Wash?
ington. It was decided at the same
time lo give passage to correspond -
Pill - of individual newspapers on the
ai my transport Orizaba, which win
sail from Ilokokcn Sunday at noon
She will be part of the convoy of the
!? ideiit's sli p, which will include
the mpcrdrcudimilght Pennsylvania
mid a iiumi'cr of other naval ships.
The George Washington will carry
a naval crew of more than l.nuO of
(leers and men. Being faster, the
president's ship will arrive in France
at nlout the same lime as the Oriza?
ba. It seems to be settled, that the
prasidnt will co llrsl directly to
France, and later to England and pos
llbly lo Italy. If he intends to visit
any nf the other Kurnpenii countries
'tis plan has not liecome known.
\ ItKSlll.T til" T1IK WAK WORK
DHIV E.
(I,urn tin Sheldon in the New York
Times. I
Is il inn lime for some one t i begin
pointing ??ui the heiu'Ats of the war
?incidental ones. I mean, aside from
"m ' iug ihe world safe fur democ?
racy"? If il is, I would like to say
'hat with the termination of the Unit
? I War Work drive, hiiniaiiitnriatiism
'.?oine into its own'.' That which ante?
dates, supersedes, and transcends all
the religions, near-religions, ami .nils
ever conceived in the intellect of ma"
looms nbnvc all else in the propor?
tions il has assumed with this last
human achievement. It has joined tin
hearts of .lew. Gentile, Romanist, and
prepared the way for more tolera
ti>ui and less prejudice regarding the
creeds ami lends hitherto considered
all-importnnt, even foolishly : acred
Jew, Gentile and Romania! fought
shoulder to shoulder in the trench
es, their differences forgotten. In tin
face of danger and death they had on?
ly one aim. one purpose, one resolu
tion. And in the face of their unity
tin- various church societies were
tshnmed and the littleness of their
contentions was brought home to
them.
If in the future we hear nc more
>f denominational virtues, less of nar?
row creeds and bigoted tenets- -if we
hear more of brotherly love and hu?
man interest?the war will have a< ?
I'omplishcd a twofold mission. Relig?
ious wars?conflicts of intolerance,
waged to give some particular belief
supreme jurisdiction, have cuTscd th
nygonc ages . If this last war has ob?
literated denominational conceit from
the brains of the churches it has done
much mine for the world than "mak?
ing il safe for democracy." It has
made if safe for humanity.
WIRELESS TELEPHONE USED
BY AVIATORS.
Tie Xew York Herald, of the 17th
inst., contained a lengthy account of
the use of the wireless telephone in
transmitting messages and orders tu
aviators. The demonstration was cur?
ried out by Lieut. Hudson R. Searing,
whose wife ie here the guest of her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. .1. T. Ken
drick, and Col. Culver, of the Air-,
craft hoard. Sealing took the air ill
a Dellavilund machine and the orders
given from the ground through the
wireless telephone were easily under?
stood by him, although his lane was
at an altitude of several thousand
feet.

Hr. .1. C. Daist, from Ronnoke, a

benefit of bis skill in the treatment

stances without any loss of time from

THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.
ANOTHER SUGGESTION.
The suggestion made in a former
issue of this paper has met with
approval generally. Judge Graham's
letter of endorsement is to he fouao
in another, column. It is suggested in
this letter of Judge Graham's that
the names of the men who died in
camps in this country should be in
eluded along with those who losl
their lives in France. We offer an
additional suggestion: Build a Y. M.
('. A. hall in honor of the hoys ef
Tazewell who were called t.i the
colors, and dedicate "Victory Hall"
to the memory of the hoys.
Such a hall would he perpetualh
useful and uplifting. A monument
serves its purpose well, but its
Utility is limited. It is voiceless and
tilent, although eloquent in ita silence
but a hall is perpetually voicc-ful
and a center of living moral ano
religious influence?a rallying point
for the young men of future. Taze?
well needs such a hall, and this
would seem, if ever, a propitiou?
time to go after i'.
This is a suggestion?an amend
ment?offered to the original sug
ecstions. What do you think of th<
proposal? Shall it he a monument o
a Memorial Hall?

NAVAL CRAFT ABROAD SOON
TO COME HOME.
Pai is, Nov. 23.?The American
naval establishments in European
polls and waters is being reduced
rapidly since the armistice. It is in?
tended lo onler home soon all small
craft, destroyers, and submarine,
used principally as convoys, except
for a limited number for patrol and
escort duly.
The American naval base at Brest
however, will not be nbondoiicd, but
will be used as a repair station. The
general installations there will be en
larger somewhat to take care of the
steady stream of transports which
will carry the American troops back
to their homes.
Other naval brunches along the
coast, including balloon and airplane
sheds and branch repair plants, no
longer are required, anil a consider?
able part of the naval personnel al?
ready has started homeward.
SUNSHINE AND SHADOW.
Yesterday was a bright, warm day
following a windy, stormy, rainy
night. All night Wednesday the wind
blew and the rain poured, as tho
elements were mad. On yesterday
morning early the clouds blew away
and the sun shone out. clear nnd
bright in benediction upon Thanks?
giving Day. However, the day had
been chosen as the hearer of a dark
shadow as well as sunshine, tears
mingled with smiles. Two funeralt
and two burials eccured at the same
hour in the afternoon. The bodies of
W. G. Ha frisson and of Mac Williams,
were borne tc the cemetery at the
same hour. Such an occurenee has
not I ecu witnessed here before. And
so, the sunshine and the shadow,
I ears and smiles, joy and sorrow
commingled on our great Thanks?
giving day.
Mr. C. T. Keister, of Tnnnersville,
was here on Tuesday, a witness tr
court, Ho called in for a chat ami r
?'kick." He said the Clinch Valley
News had not made proper mention
of what hail been done in the wai
work drives in Poor Valley, of which
the people then are justly proud.
Perhaps not, but we publish what is
furnished us by the committees and
glad to do so. Go after the commit?
tees.

MAKING NOVEMBER llth. A

SOLDIERS DEFEND THE FLAG.
The .sentiments winch inspired the
Kotdic-rs and sailors In attack a lo:
of socialists and anarchist in New
York last Monday night, finds sym?
pathy ail over the country, while the
net hods employed may not be ap?
proved. A largo crowd gathered in
Madison Square Garden the ohjee;
>f which was to protest against the
execution of the anarchist Mooney.
The speakers Graded against the
courts, denounced every thing nnd
everybody American. A crowd of
about a thousand sailors and soldiers
gat together and sturted something,
und f-r a white there was something
going on The Bolsheviks anarchist.-,
and all were dodging nnd hiding
rvcry where. Just as well decide
first as last that Bolshevism can
have no place of safely in America.
The tap root of the gan? is in Ger
many and Russia where they are
giving all sorts of trouble. It looks
now as though General Koch will have
to invade these gangs and destroy
them before anything like order will
prevail there, and when they are
wiped out in Germany their des?
truction and final nnd utter suppres?
sion in the U. S. will he an cas'j
task, and not until then. Every one
of these disturbers of the peace
should be run clear out of the United
Stales, nt the point of the bayonet
if necessary. They should "get off
the earth."

NOTICE
One chief source of road deteriora?
tion is the tendency of traffic to fol?
low a constant line of travel, which
wears and depresses the road crown
along this line of continuous use. The
entire road surface, including the
shoulders, at least in dry weather,
should be used with the view of avoid?
ing as much as possible this objec?
tionable propensity. Thus will our
roads wear evenly, prevent to great
extent the inclination to drop in hole?
or rids, which obstruct proper drain?
age and cause water to soak into the
road, greatly to its injury. We are all
aware how important and expensive
a feature- is the maintenance of our
good roads; let us apply willingly,
therefore, since it is to our interest, if
for no other reason, one of the reme
dies for their economical use.
