HIGH PRESSUltK The recent crisis in Europe which seemed for the moment to divide the dark and bloody continent into two armed camps on the very verge of revealed one thing to tho United States, which is that in case of another European war we will face a deluge of propaganda which will make the one which overcame us in 1914 look like a mero trickling stream.

In spite of the evident desire of a great majority of tho American people to keep this country out of war tho propaganda machines were piled up. The fact that the last war had cost us twenty billions and that the victorious nations still owe us ten billions on account, the propagandists evidently believed, could be obliterated from the minds of the people by the new war hysteria. The war propaganda danger now Is much more serious than it was twenty years ago owing to the fact that the propaganda machinery abroad, like tho airplane, has been perfected in the meantime. As "Newsdom" stated In a recent Issue: "That tho press will be faced with even greater problems in reporting and interpreting a European war and In keeping its columns free of emotionalism than during 1014-1018 because of tremendous strides that have been made by all nations in propaganda technique In tho past twenty years, was tho general opinion of newspapermen who witnessed tho change In newspaper attitudes during the World war that eventually resulted In American intervention." In view of the general realization of this propaganda danger the action of Congressman Martin Dies, of Texas, in announcing the forming of a League for and Americanism to fight this propaganda, no matter when it comes, is oi' especial Interest. Representative Dies, it will bo remembered, is chairman of the House Committee which has been engaged for several weeks in investigating alleged fascist, nazl and communist propaganda in tho United States, and which has unearthed Borne startling and disquieting information.

Congressman Dies slated that he has "reliable information" to tho effect that certain European countries were preparing to spend millions of dollars (o carry on propaganda work Just Folks Edgar Guwt BKNTAL KXl'KJUKNCK He seems so surely master Tm EFFORT thot wtts made long silence Miss Roberts has pro- of ln Hamilton 1Tolt group of Broadway promoters to duced.

It appears that the bank will have the building to look at, heat, and pay insurance on, for a long time.

SHELTER ISLAND, where choosy New Yorkers have found summer refuge from heat and noise for generations, was so hard hit by the September hurricane that there is grave doubt among many old residents that it will shelter many city folk another summer. Al Kere, cartoonist, came back to the City from the Island a few days before the blow, but a nephew, 31 years old, was killed in tho storm.

By lagro OatdStoB, M. D. AVOID RAW In most of the larger cities In tho United States none but pasteurized milk is sold to the public.

A very small quantity of unpastetirized ccrti- 'ied milk, produced under very strict sanitary supervision and drawn from arefully Inspected herds, Is also dls- ributed In the larger cities, but the itmiility Is negligible. In tho smaller communities, how- pasteurized milk Is frequently lot available, and In consequence a deal of raw milk Is consumed. The conditions under which milk is produced and distributed havo im- P'-oved enormously during tho last 20 years. But it remains true that milk Is dangerous and, converse- that no milk Is safo unless It has pasteurized or boiled before bong used. All foods must bo handled with scrupulous cleanliness.

Milk, In addition, must bo "bactcrially clean." Tho only effective way of attaining this is by pasteurizing or by boillng tho milk. Nor will it do to drink pasteurized milk: "six days a week" and to take chance with raw milk on the seventh. It Is tho "seventh day" that yields the milk-borne Infections, among them, undulant fever. Do not bank too much on the certification of tho herd. The fact that the cows are tuberculin tested Is no guarantee that they are also free of the germs of undulant fever.

Again, a cow may develop somc disease between inspection periods. There are innumerable ways by which disease-producing germs may get into milk, and milk is a fine culture medium for them. Whatever chances the adult may want to take with bis own health, is certainly not fair for him to gamble with tho health of his children. To tho young none but safe milk should bo served. Raw milk is rendered sate by bringing up to the boiling point, and then cooling it Immediately.

FROM OUR FILES 10 YEARS AGO Burgess Wasser warned coal truck drivers to avoid over-loading their vehicles. A number of complaints had been received about tho lumps of coal on the pavements, especially near railroad tracks, constituting a general hazard to traffic. Calvary Evangelical Church congregation raised $2635.62 at their "cash rhlly." With such a worthy contribution the congregation was a bio to pay nearly all the mortgage on tho South Mercer Street property purchased two years previously. Kour services were held nt tho Klrst Methodist Church to herald the opening ot tho Centennial Week celebration. Jn the, opening service Bishop Herbert Welch, of Pittsburgh, spoke to a capacity gathering and special music was furnished by Miss Ruby C.

Smith, tho church choir under the direction of Mrs. Byron McQueen, with organ accompaniment by Charles P. Hodge. 30 YEARS AGO Thomas D. West of Shnrpsvlllo visited Greenville In an endeavor to organize a branch of tho American Ant I-Accident Association here.

It was hoped that along with Sharps- Greenville, Sharon, Yoitngs- Itown, and New Castle would unite In tho movement, one of tho main issues being tho banning of flrcworka on the Fourth of July. Republicans were certain of ono biij Republican rally In Mercer County, Chairman Campbell of Sharon announced, and that was to be in Greenville. Tho Republicans had been particularly active in this borough and Candidate Taft was assured of a noteworthy votu In Mercer County. The Sharon Oil Company started to drill on No. 2 well on Haggorty farm, near Hadley.

The company was enthusiastic over tho prospects, and oil men watched the venture with keen interest. 50 YEARS AGO Kilder, the Advance Argus announced, had been studying tho history of his country and observing for himself the effects of a wise system of protection to American Industries.

When a Justice Is us.siKiird to wrllo a decision of tho court, the wording must satisfy all members of. the majority before II Is released. But- a Justice can write dissent' as ho pleases. In ono Instance, Justice Block held that federal courts were bound to accept Interpretations of.
