RAT|ONING PLANS
ARE SET ASIDE BY

No Further License viii Be

Shipments to Holland Stop,

London, Sept IA, THURSDAY. De-
layedJ THE plan Of rationing the
neutral countries Of Norway Swe-
den Denmark and Holland, under
which no further licenses Will be
granted for the present to British eN-
porters, has been extended to apply
10 the United states Boy the cXpedl-
cnts of refusing TO allow the Neither
lands oversee trust to accept further
American consignmenis and by de-
clinine 20 grant letters Of assurance
for American shipments desisned for
these countries.
In consequence American ship
ments for Holland will be stopped
absolutely while the regular trans
pOrtatiOn companies trading be-
tween the United States and Scandi-
navia will not take cargoes without
assurance of their innocent destina-
ton by the British authorities. Fur

reasons induced the British govern
mcnt to take this action, The first
is the simplicity of the plan which
enables the government to control
supplies at the source. The second
is the growing bin with which
Great Britain is being pressed by neu-
trail governments for dCmurrago and
other expenses incurred by taking
suspected ships into Krllwall and
other ports for examination.
Another blockade measure is the
recent arrangement under which bu-
reaus were set up In England and
France for granting licenses for ex-
change Of goods which figure on the
list of prohibited imports The
American authorities contend that
under the British-American com
mcrcial treaty Of 1915 such prohibit
tions must be enforced equally
against all countries Consequently
any privileges granted to France and
not extended to the United states are
held to be in violations Of that
treaty.

amendment, which is to be decided in

Inclusion of the death provision In
Oklahomas compensation law is hind.

STREETS AND SKIRTS

Lillian Russell says that streets
should be so clean that they would
not soil a woman's, skirt. But how
can they get to woman's skirt these
days unless she sits down?
There are lots of ways, man, for
the streets to get to woman's skirt.
They can blow up to it, or she can
bow down to them. Eighteen inches
isn't such dim distance as you seem
to imagine. OF course some skirts
are more than eighteen inches from
the street level; but we are not talk
ing about the extremists, only the
average. Also it is quite possible
for the wearer of modern skirt to
fall on the street. A hasty and OBJ
livious dog, for instance, might In
the pursuit of cat unthinkingly
project himself between the upright
supports upon which the skirt is
draped, and, in the vigor OF the
movement, upset the superstructure
by Earring the underpinning. The
State Press, always close observer,
saw that very thing happen once up
on a time, although he has hereto
fore been ashamed to tell it. Not
that his shame was predicated upon
any responsibility of his own. 1t was
not his dog, nor was the injured
party a particular friend of his. He

A PREACHERS SON PRESIDENT

The preachers son" has occupied
an unenviable position in the past.
Fiction gradually has adopted him as
the juvenile villain. In novel or play
or upon screen the preachers son"
has had almost monopoly of the
character of the returning prodigal.
But what say these critics of the
preachers son" to the situation
about to confront the country? A
preachers son" will be the next
President of the United States. The
only alternative is whether you pre-
fer son Of Baptist or Presbyterian
extraction.
For several months Charles Il.
Hughes and woodrow Wilson will
fight each other with all the weapons
in their political arsenals. But in
one respect they have collaborated.
For the time being they have caused
the preachers son" to bear the
same exalted relation to the Presi-
dency that the state of Indiana bears
to the vice-presidency.-C Cincinnati

SOVEREIGNTY A MYTH

That Mexican sovereignty has be-
come not only a fiction but a baleful
fiction is written on the face of the
record. Its government Is unable to
perform those essential functions
which entitle 1t to respect and con-
sideration. 1t is unable to afford
even semisecurity to the lives and
property of aliens resident in Mex
leo. 1t is unable to prevent maraud-
ing outlaws from making murderous
forays into American territory.
If it were not for the European
war its egregious failures would have
already provoked demands from
European governments, injurious to
its national integrity. AS against
the future threat Of European inter-
vention 1t must rely on the United
States to protect its supposed indie
pendence. 1t is as incapable Of
planning and carrying out healing
domestic policy as 1t is of meeting its
foreign obligations. Thus while 1t is
insisting on all the privileges Of a
sovereign state it is ignoring most
of the responsibilities If it is al
lowed to continue on this course, the
situation in that distracted country
is likely to go from bad to worse.
Mexico needs outside assistance to
an extent which is bound to bring
with it outside interference. If
President Wilson wishes to make
any Roadway with his Mexican policy
he should discard the fiction Of Mexf-
can sovereignty, we'll documented
though it be, and should announce
without ambiguity that the American
army will remain in Northern Mexico
not only until order is completely re-
stored, but until the continuation Of
good order is guaranteed by an au-
thoritative and dependable Mexican
government.-New Republic.

Bad company and the cigaret go
hand in hand. The cigaret is out
lawed by every sense of decency; it
is poison and corruption for every
young boy. What booze does for the
man, the cigaret does for the boy
before he becomes a man. When a
boy trades the companionship Of
home and books and friends worth
while for the companionship of the
cigaret, he is on the high road to
ruin.-Olathe Register.
