New York Senator Says
Idea is to Promote ALI
ance With the English.
FEW WEALTHY MEN
TO BE BENEFACTORS
Secretary Of Endowment is
Called to Tell Where
Money is Expended.

Washington, D. c., March 13--Jas.
Brown Scott, secretary of the Carnegie
endowment for international peace,
testified today before the senate lobby
committee. He submitted the financial
statement of contributions and con-
tributors to the support of instruction
and record of disbursement.
Inquiry into the endowment was
precepitated by the charge made I'M
executive session of the senate Dy
Senator O'Gorman that its main pur-
pose possible was not to promote in
ternational peace, but to bring about
a British-America alliance in the in
terest of selected few who supported
the institution.
Senator O'Gorman is leading the
fight in the senate against repeal OF
the Panama canal tolls exemption and
the lobby committee sought to find II
men interested in the endowment were
in anyway interested in that issue.
The $5OO,OO0 annual revenue of the
endowment is derived from bonds OF
the United States steel corporation.
Senator Walsh asked particularly as
to an annual contribution to the $31,-
900 to the American Peace society. Mr..
Scott said that organization was head
ed by Senator Burton and that 1t dis
tributed to smaller. organizations
throughout the country documents
dealing with the peace propaganda. He
agreed to produce copies Of all which
dealt with general arbitration treaties
or canal tolls exemption.
Further inquiry into the peace en-
dowment records brought to light an
allotment of s7,469 in 1913, for 'propa-
ganda for Panama canal tolls" That
sum it was disclosed, was never ex-
pended and still is carried on the
books.
DeKnisht coIIapses. -..
Clarence A. DeKnight, the Washing
ton lawyer examined yesterday, suf-
fered a nervous collapse and was un-
able to appear. He had promised to
produce his contract with former Ad-
miral Bowels, head of the Fore River
Shipbuilding Co., for work for Pan
anna canal tolls exemption. Bowles
denies that De Knight had such con-
tract.

EDUCATION Staying CUPID
Miss Mamie r. Hutehison. formerly
Hardin College, had a page article IN
the Sunday Kansas City Star as a re
suit Of certain sociological inyestlga.
tons she has been making regarding
the effect Of higher education OF
women on the home. She says she
had little response from the South,
with the exception Of Missouri, al
though the North apparently was
much Interested.
Among the replies was one from
President John ". Million, OF Har-
din College, who stated college won
en- would raise a much larger percent
age OF her children than the IN
trained woman win.
Miss Hutehison states her inyesti-
CATION shows cmmercialized vice *

evils. according TO her report, could
be easily eliminated If the women
made a determined fight against
them. The article is a most inter
one and worth special not as

LETTER FROM LOUIS HUBERT.
To the Editor OF the Ledger
Mexico. Mo, Jan. 10.
r. NJ. White,
Dear friend:
In regard TO ~critlclzing my recent
letter in the Republic OF the 18Th
day of January. must say that
you never touched the real question
IN my letter.
II I hadn't known your style OF writ

boy wrote II. You made a mistake in
reading In first place.
| said 1t was the highest prices
paid for feed for thirty-three years

And you made another mistake
in last State option election. You de

letter Is that you force the people to
the mail order houses by your local
option. You have fought them with
teeth and nail for years. You force
the people to order their liquor and
any one who has to order his liquor
through mail order houses will order
