The Community Spirit Triumphant
The citizens of Nehawka and com
munity have in the past demonstrat
ed that there is much in team work
in whatever line of endeavor the ef
fort may run. In the p:it they have
solved many hard and knotty prob
lems by reason cf their wording to
gether and throwing to the winds the
selfish interests which in many com
munities have prevented any ad
vancement of the community spirit.
This rallying around the central
theme and that for the thing which
is best for all built the auditorium
and then made it possible to have
cne of the first consolidated school,
when the city and country ;like
to-.ild benefit by an opportunity to
?T.ure a liberal education for every
one who lias the ambition to strive
for it. This is the spirit which built
the pyramids, that sustained the
American army at Valley Forge, and
in fact that accomplished anything
of moment in whirh it required the
concerted efforts cf the people to
bring acrcss. Iast week on Tuesday
a meeting was held which was the
initial to caring for the welfare of
the community and the central idea
being the doing away of some little
incumbrance which h?& grown with
the rhcent years wh-en the attention
of the people had been drawn from
the matter by the care of business
life. Arrangements were made at this
meeting for another which was call
ed for Friday evening and all the
business houses closed their doors at
S o'clock and the whole community
com together. Like in the town
meetings of a century ago they con
sidered the matters looking to. a bet
ter Nehawka and whh -a -determination
which brooked no interference
they went after the work an! devised
plans which will in the end make
Nehawka a better town and will
clear the auditorium from the in
cumbance which o lightly clings to
it.

ALLIES STAND PAT
ON REPARATIONS
Note Says Germany Must Meet the!
Payments Due on May 31
To Exact Penalties.
Paris, April 13. The reparations
commission adopted tonight the text
of a note to Germany informing it
that the commission's decisions of
March 21.' notably as regards pay
ments to be made until May 31 are
maintained and that if Germany
does not take necessary measures to
get its finances in order, the commis
sion would be obliged on May 31 to
exact penalties.
The reply, which comprises nearly
1,000 words, begins:
"The commission notes with sur
prise and regret that the principal
conditions under which the commis
sion granted a moratorium to Ger
many are categorically rejected."
It suggests that the German gov
ernment make a better demonstration
of fiscal courage, for example with
regard to taxation of current indus
try and commercial profits.
The note declares that Germany's
reply with regard to new taxation
and the provision of foreign ex
change for reparation purposes is
tantamount to a refusal to make any
serious effort to supply foreign cur
rencies for payment.
The final paragraph contains the
phrase: "The commission hopes that
the intransigeant attitude taken in
the German note was adopted with
out adequate consideration of its
necessary consequence."
