THE PARADOX OF SHIPS.

Here is world so short of ships to carry its
freight that whole markets are compelled to
wait and our own export trade is kept under
handicap. Ships would seem to be at high
premium; and so the right sort are. But it is
the paradox of ships today that more of them
are furnishing puzzle to wise men in determin-
ing what TO do with them than has ever been
the case before. First there is the German
fleet; it is carefully screened from publicity
under British supervision just as it was during
the war under its German commanders. But
sometime or other something must be done with
it, Then there are all the U-boats; it is report
ed that they are to be sent to the junk heap.
Lastly there are more than one hundred new
wooden ships built by the United States Elmer
gency Fleet corporation. Now that the emer-
gency is gone the fleet corporation would be
very thankful if the boats were gone with it.
What to do with them is a problem. They have
been tried in coastal trade and proved imprac-
teal of efficient service. There is some hope
by fleet corporation optimists that these boats
can be made useful along the Mississippi from
St Paul to the Gulf; other members are in ia
vor of ''scrapping'' them at once This war
has brought about many strange contradictions
Here ships to be 'scrapped'' in a world all
upset by need of ships

turned to Warsaw from Paris, says a
copyright dispatch to the New York
Herald.
Premier Paderewskis return from

sion for a mammoth demonstration
in his honor, and when he and Nine.
Paderewski stepped from their car at
the Vienna station thousands of Poles
were there to welcome him.
AS the premier and Nine. Paderew-
ski emerged from the railway station
and were about to enter their auto
mobile, two men standing near them
SUDDENLY shouted in unison: Down
with Paderewski."
At the same moment they drew re-
volvers, and at close range tried to
shoot the premier. Before they could
level their weapons. however, a score
OF men bounced on them, beat them to
the ground and disarmed them.
Before the gendarmes could rescue
the two. the crowd. realizing what
had happened, fought their way to
them and beat them numerically.
One OF the men is a Young Jew
named Isaac Hablum. The other 10
we'll known locally as a bolshevist
and is a Pole.

WOMEN WANT ID
 | BECOME PRIESTS
Spirited Debate on Subject in England Brings Out ln-
 teresting Viewpoints
By Associated Press

London, June 16-Excitement attended debate in a public meeting held the other day in Church House, Westminster. the headquarters of the Church of Eng land, over the question whether women should be admitted to the priesthood. The principal debaters were Miss Maude Roy den, a leader of the movement here for l women clergy, and the Rev. A G. Magee, a staunch opponent of the scheme. | Clergymen joined with laymen and women in missing. booing and cheering, according to the side they took.
 ''To admit women to the priesthood, the Rev. MT Magee declared would be a revolution, not an evolution. They cannot have a revolution of that charac- | ter until the whole church has set it's seal upon it. and God has approved of it' Kissing and cries of Shame" greeted his discussion of the moral relationships likely to rise between men and women in the church if the latter were admit ted. You cannot get away fpom the sex question:, he said. We are made as we are, and that fact remains.
 Amid applause from his friends he said he believed the granting of the priesthood to woman would make her false to her master and false to her sex"
 Women argued Miss Royden, desire  women as priests, and their admission to the priesthood would make it much cas- fer for women to get help from the church."
 After quoting the New Testament to show that the commission of the priest hood was given to men and women alike in the Upper Room at Jerusalem, she continued:
 ''The head of the Church of England has not always been man. Queen Eliz- abeth, Queen Anne and Queen Victoria were all supreme heads of the church..
 No No," shouted many voices.
 "I am sorry if you don't like it. Miss Royden told the protesting element, but it is s.o.'
 She went on to affirm that the funda- mental differences between men and women were not a bar to womens entry into the priesthood. "Women, she con cluded, "desire to conform more nearly to the ideal laid down by Christ He laid down nothing and suggested nothing that divided men and women in the voca- tion of priesthood" No vote was taken on the subject.
