 Training for tho Amy

It is imperative that every young woman in our United Staten. secure in the enjoyment of Liberty and Happi- ness. should "do her bit" by taking the place of some young man who is per forming heroic and valient service on the battle front.
 In previous conflicts, women have not been unresponsive to our country s call and the women of today..will like wise spring to the fore and do man 8 part wherever they can.
 The need for young women today IS imperative. Not only is there short age of stenographers in all government departments at Washington. but pri- vate firms .all over the country must have stenographers and office help to fill the gaps caused by the war.
 It is a splendid chance for the young womanhood of America to serve.

HOW THE WAR
 CAME TO AMERICA
Continued from last week.

our minds. The Nation shared with the President the belief 1 that by maintaining strict neu- trality we could best serve Europe at the end as impartial mediators.
 But in the very first days of the war our Government fore saw that complications on the seas might put us in grave risk of being drawn into the conflict. No neutral nation could foretell what violations of it's vital inter ests at sea might be attempted by the belligerents. And so, on August 6, 1914. our Secretary of State dispatched an identical note to all the powers then at war. c alling attention to the risk of serious trouble. arising out of this uncertainty of neutrals as to their maritime rights and propos- ing that the Declaration of Lon- don be accepted by all nations for the duration of the war.
 But the British Governments response. while expressing sym- pathy with the purpose of our suggestion and declaring their keen desire to consult so far as possible the interests of neutral countries" announced their de- cision ito adopt generally the rules of the Declaration in ques- tion, subject to certain modifca- tions and additions which they judge indispensable to the eff cient conduct of their naval op. erations." The Declaration had not been indorsed by any power in time of peace. and there was no legal obligation on Great Britian to accept it. Her reply. however. was disappointing, for it did nothing to claxify the situ- ation. Great Britian recognized as binding certain long accepted principles of international law and sought now to apply them to the peculiar and unforeseen con ditions of this war. But these principles were often vague and therefore full of dangerous pos abilities of friction.
 Controversies soon arose be- tween Great Britian and this Ma tion. In practice their ruling sometimes seemed to our Govern ment inconsistent with the spirit ofjnternational law. and especial ly with the established preced- ents which they invoked. But painful as this divergence of opinion sometimes was, it did not seriously threaten our posi- ton of neutrality, for the issue that arose involved only rights of property and were amply cov- erei by the arbitration treaty signed only short time before by Great Britian and the United States.
 And this controversy led to a clearer understanding on our part of the British attitude to. ward our ideal of the freedom of the seas. They were not willing to accept our classification of the seas as being distinct from the Old World. We had confined our interest to matters affecting rights at sea and had kept care fully sloof from issues affecting the interests of Europeans na- tons on land. The British were interested in both. They ex- plained that they had partici- pated in the London naval con ference in the hope that it would lead to sound and liberal en- 1 tente ir the interest of the rights of all nations on the sea and on the land as well, and that they had refused to ratfv the London Declaration because no compen- sating accord on the Continent had resulted. They could not afford to decrease the striking

u. S. CONSIDERS ARMAMENT
QUESTION STILL OPEN

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 20
At the Medill Mccormick dinner to-
might the Republicans and liberals
plan to kidnap the house of represen-
itatives.
Despite the fact that the invita-
tons We're issued week ago, "suc-
cessful secrecy" has marked the
plans.
When the secret leaked out it was
pointed ont that the dinner wasn't a
Progressive affair, but matter in
which the liberals of both houses and
perhaps of both parties could partici-
pate.
Included among the senator's invit-
ed are Borah. Cummins, Gronna
Norris and Hale.
Many incoming representatives OF
the same type have also been invit-
ed.

sions court on charges growing out
of the maintenance OF a birth control
clinic by Mrs. Sanger in Brooklyn.
The defense intends to make
strenuous effort to get the testimony
of physicians into the case saying
the death rate amoug children as
cends astonishingly with the increase
in births per family. The defense
is willing to attempt to prove from
voluminous statistics that deaths pei

four children 1876; five or six child
rem 1923; seven or eight children
1864; nine or more children 1919.
As in the case of Mrs. Ethel Byrne
Mrs. Sanger's sister, who was con
victed and whose case is now on ap

merely voluntary motherhood.

SENATOR REvIvES
AN OLD DOCTRINE

Senator Owen, of Oklahoma recent
|ly introduced into the senate Of the
United States Il resolution declaring
that whenever any federal Judge de-
cided any law of congress to be un-
constitutional, at that moment the
said federal judge could consider him
self out of office. Such decision
would be the same as filing his resig-
nation. Such a course would mean
anarchy and the end Of law. Just
why the senator from Oklahoma
should be inspired to do this, no one
can tell, except that he is one part
Indian and the other part foolish. lie
might have made his resolution lit
tie broader and put the federal judg-
es out for deciding that any state en-
actment by n state legislature should
be unconstitutional. Why stop at
congress
Senator Owen has not introduced
anything new. During the first 90
years of the republic the fight was
against the supreme court. 1t was to
declare that the Legislative bodies
should be supreme and from their acts
there should be no appeal. 1t does
not take much sense to realize that
lthis great effort at democracy could
not succeed without some point being
designated at which wrangles should
be discontinued. The supreme court
his the dead wall where everything is
If there were no dead wall
the politicians and others carrying or
disputes for their own advantage ano
smot for the advantage of the country
would go on forever. The United
States, ms u republic, differs from
.other republics in the western worlt
I by the fact that we have some place

1t is perfectly natural that free

al that unthinking men should be

to conclude that in the final anal
ysis all the people of the United
States want government of law
