courage the nations of Europe in theii
folly by initiating them in the matter OF
armaments? If our preparations for na.

the other nations. how can II at the

Which Way to Anger:
Can We encourage them by harassins

The very aloofncss that existed be-

made Helen ovcr-anxious to show
her every possible courtesy.
When Carrie finally appeared she
was dressed even to her hat. Her
hair, which she always wore in a low
coiled braid, was now combed up un-
der her narrow-brimmcd hat, and the
effect was severely unbeeoming.

"Where in thunder did that come

switch with laughing:

But it was to her own room that
she took it. Leaving it on the drcs-

back, her sense of humor struggling
with her sympathy for Carries dis
comfort.
Here had been a chance of a swift
revenge for all of Carries past sights
and overbearing haushtiness. She
had only to remain silent. Instead
she had impulsively rushed to her

BRYAN'S REASONS
FOR RES|GN|NG
Explains Wherein He Differed
With President.
Welded TO PEACE TREATIES
Former Premier Also Declares That
Americans Should Be Warned Not
To Travel On Vessels Carry
ing Munitions OF War.

Washington. William Jennings
Bryan retired Wednesday at Secretary
Of State. His first act as a private
citizen was to issue a statement OK
planning his reasons for leaving the
Cabinet and announcing that he in
tended to lay his view of what the
American policy toward Germany
should be before the public for judg-
ment.
The statement came as a sensation.
al climax to day of farewell speeches
and good wishes from President VIII
son and executive colleagues of the
retiring secretary.
In his explanation Mr.. Bryan reveal
ed that the President had not felt justi-
fed in adopting two suggestions made
by his Secretary of State-that an Of
fer should be made to Germany to SUBJ
NIT the questions in dispute with the
United States to an international COM
mission for investigation during a
years time and that meanwhile Ameri-
cans should, by proclamation, be
warned not to take passage on any
belligerent ships or on American YES
sells carrying ammunition. These
propositions Mr. Bryan expects to
urge on the people "in the hope of
securing such an expression of public
sentiment as will support the Presi-
dent in employing these remedies if
in the future he finds it consistent with
his sense of duty to favor them"
Officials Amazed.
Mr.. Bryan's statement was received
with undisguised amazement in official
quarters. No comment was made at
the White House, but some high off,
cials indicated that they believed it
most unfortunate that so pronounced
an expression of opinion should be
made public while the discussion with
Germany was in progress.
The principle advocated by Mr..
Bryan is embodied in treaties of peace
negotiated by the United States with
80 nations, and was accepted by Ger
many although no convention ever was
drafted. The statement is condensa-
ton of the argument which Secretary
Bryan has been making repeatedly to
President Wilson in the last few
weeks. and upon which he hopes to
build up public sentiment in the
United States that will make war with
Germany impossible.
The issuance of the explanation had
been timed to coincide exactly with
the despatch of the American note to
Germany.

no resistance and was primarily a
