STOP NAGGING THE PRESIDENT

In their appeal to the president to take immediate steps to end the

women. patror&ingly inform Mr.. Wilson that mo diplomatic conven-
tons should be allowed to stand in the way of the most expeditions

... There are two methods by which a nation a exert influence in
international affairs. One is through diplomatic conventions" The
other is by means of war. Do the sufragist leaders expect the presiden,
to issue a peace ultimatum to the nine beTigerent powers and then ask
congress to declare wa against them if they do not Immediately con-
sent tic mediation? Do they think the president AN decide the issues
involved in this great conflict, fix the responsibility rearrange the bound
aries, apportion the indemnties, penaize the defeated and dictate the
OF a general European peace?
There are no expeditions means OF securing mediation except war,
and W al has not yet driven any OF the beligerents to seek mediation.
In rendering the good offices of the United States the president has
done all that he could do and all that the United States government can
do. Germany is certainly not going ito withdraw her armies from French
soil because American sufragists ire in a hurry for mediation, Is
it likely that the Allies will stop fighting merely to obhge these amiable
and wel-meaning women. Mediation will com when n side or the
other is ready for it, and OF before
The various asgregations of selfadvertsers who are nagging the
president in the name of peace are in a fair way to weaken the moral

In a public address delivered in London, Professor Lamprecht, the
celebrated historian and apostle o. culture in the University Of Leipzig,
declared that the effect OF the present IA would be t o establish a Ger
la unity all over the world-a unity of culture from which only n
country would be excluded, and that country, he said, vas England. To
quote his words:
THE German world today is nj There is only n renegade
brother. Up and at him! English culture must be in a bad way indeed
when it allies itself with the Mongoians. We wait O see what America
will say of these things. Germany is now the protector of European
civilization, and after bloody victories the world will be healed by being
Gernanized'
The most famous OF German poets, Gerhardt Hauptmann publishes
in the Benner Tageblatt a datribe against England, placing all of the
responsibility for the wa upon that country, in which he says in part:
The war we arc o waging is merely a defensive wr. He who
doubts this is attempting the impossible. Our enemy has come from
our estern, or caster. and or northern frontiers. Our brotherly rea-
ton with Austria scc. rds with our duty of mutual support. We were
forced to take up weapons from the moment the kaiser and the zr X
changed kilograms and the king OF England received the news. To
speak plainly, the Weapons are in II hands and we do not intend il

VIEWS OF PRESIDENT
ON The RACE MATTER
Discusses Problem Before Uni.
versity CommissiOn-Urges
Help For the Negro.

Washington, Dec. 1S.-Outlining
his attitude toward the negro, Pres
ident Wilson recently told the uni
versity commission on southern race
questions, made up of representa-
tives of eleven southern colleges,
that "our object is to know the
needs of the negro and sympatheti-
cally help him in every way tEat Is
possible for his good and our good"
DR.. G. II. Brough. of the Univer-
sity of Arkansas, chairman of the
commission, told the President the
commission was organized to make
an impartial study of the race ques-
ton from the standpoint of the ne
groes' economic, hygienic, civic and
moral betterment. He said a deep
investigation of the subject was be-
ing MADE with the good of the negro
always in mind.
II am very glad to express my
sincere interest in this work and
sympathy with it," said the Presi-
dent in reply to Mr.. Brough.
81 think that men like your
selves can be trusted to see this
great question at every angle. There
isn't any question, it seems to me,
into which more candor needs to be
put, or more thorough human good
feeling, than this. ! know myself,
as southern man, how sincerely
the heart of the South desires the
good of the negro and the advance
mtnt of his race on all sound and
sensible lines, and everything that
can be done in that direction is of
the highest value. 1t is matter OF
common understanding.
There is a charming story told
about Charles Lamb. The converse
ton in his little circle, turned upon
some men who were not present,
and Lamb, who you know. suffered,
said, 4 hate that fellow His friend
said. Charles, didn't know you
knew him Lamb said, I don't; II
can't hate a fellow II know
L think that is very profound
human fact. You cannot hate man
you know. And our object is to
know the needs of the negro and
sympathetically help him in every
way that is possible for his good and
for our good. | can only bid you
God-speed in what is a very neces-
sary and great understanding"

PINK OYSTERS LATEST
FREAK--WERE TRIED OUT

Pink oysters are the latest freak
of nature under investigation by ex-
perts of the Department of Agricul-
ture. The rosy-hued bivalve comes
from beds in Long Island Sound,
looks like a regular oyster, but
turns up pink on the plate of the ul-
Innate consumer.
Frightened epicureans besieged
the Bureau of Chemistry with in
quiries and a volunteer poison squad
found the pink oyster not only
harmless. but delicious. The chem
lists have theory that the oysters
are turned pink by a wild yeast ba-
cillus or some other micro-organism.
Holland oysters sold in England
and on the Continent are quite pink
and clam-like in appearance.

FINDS CHILD LABOR IS
STILL BEING INDUCED
Shocking Conditions Exist In
Twenty States, Says
An Investigator.

New York, Dec. 19.-Exposure to
accident and definite tendency to
tuberculosis, are the penalties that
young children pay for working in
the cotton mills. according to Lewis
w. Hine. staff photographer of the
National Child Labor Committee,
who has just returned from several
weeks of investigation in the South.
81 was shocked to find conditions
still so bad in North Carolina. The
legal age limit there for factories is
10 years, but from my study of
twenty mills in North Carolina
alone, | believe that there are hun
dreds Of violations. and that the
1910 census figures which reported
1000 children under IA in the cot
ton mills of that one State and 100,-
600 children under Ia in non-agri-
cultural work throughout the coun-
try, is conservative estimate of the
number of young children at work
to-day. There are still twenty 9TH
er States besides North Carolina in
which the employment of children
under IA in mills or canneries is
legal,so that the physical danger and
the lack of education resulting from
premature work continue uncheck-
ed"
With these facts i'm mind, the Ma
tional Child Labor Committee is
calling a conference of all interested
in the protection of children at
Washington on the 9Th and 9th of
January, to emphasize the need of a
Federal child labor law. The speak
ers will include Representative A.
Mitchell Palmer, of Pennsylvania.

CONVICT PAROLE ACT

Doesn't Affect Prisoners Con-

Went Into Effect.

Frankfort, KY, Dec. 16.-Prison-
ers sentenced to life Imprisonment
before the parole law went into eff
feet are not entitled to parole at the
end of five years as matter Of
right, but are eligible at the discre-
ton of the Board of Prison Commits
sioners, says the Court of Appeals,
affirming the Franklin Circuit Court,
which had denied to Clarence Gray
a writ of mandamus requiring the
board to parole him.
The court also held in the case of
w. b. Rogers. of Kenton county,
against the Prison Board, that pris-
oners serving indeterminate SEN
fences are not entitled to have their
communication for good conduct de-
Quoted from their minimum sem
fences in ascertaining the time when
they are entitled to parole.
Rogers was sent up from Kenton
county to serve a sentence of two to
ten years for forgery. He contend
ed that the law, providing for the
com mutation of seven days in ev-
cry month for good conduct, applied
to the indeterminate sentence law,
which makes a prisoner eligible to
parole when he has served the mini
mum term of Imprisonment for the
crime for which he was committed,
and asked for his parole after one
year and seven months imprison-
ment.
The court held that while the
Communication law was not directly
repealed by the indeterminate SEN
tence and parole laws, "it does not
affect the rights of persons convicted
under the indeterminate sentence
law while the parole law of 1910
was in effect" but applies only to
the reduction of the sentence of a
prisoner serving a full term. The
whole court sat in this case and
Judge Hannah wrote the opinion. as
he did in the case of Clarence Gray.
The latter was convicted of muir
der in Bell county and sentenced
for life in 1906. He applied for pa
role June 81. 1913, and that being
refused, he sought writ of man
damus. The court held to its die
tum in the DeMoss case. involving
the right of prisoners to parole. in
which it said prisoners convicted and
sentenced for life before the enact
ment of the indeterminate sentence
and parole laws may, after serving
five years. be parolled at the discre-
tion of Stat eBoard of Prison Com
missioners."
The suits were brought by for
mer Mayor James H. Polsgrove, of
Frankfort. and Assistant Attorney
General Morris represented the Pris-
on Board.
