Would Soon Be Back Home.

Associated Press General John J, Per
shing completed his official call on the
troops in the occupied area of Germany
to-day, devoting the forenoon to an in
spection and review of the fourth corps

officers of the division, which fought in
three great battles of the American
armies the second Marine, st. Mihiel
and Meuse Argonne-on the splendid ap-
pearance of the men and he expressed
the hope that the troops would all be
back home soon.
Among the spectators was Frank Fl.

who stated he was in the occupied area
merely on a sightseeing trip.

such a plan as was embodied in the Gov
enant, drew applause. He said that he
had discussed the idea of league of
nations with Mr. Roosevelt two weeks
before his death. "The position | have
taken" he added, Gin reference to this
covenant, is one that had Mr.. Roosevets
full approval. / do not say this to
transfer any load from my shoulders to
his, but it is at the same time a support
to know that my position in this matter
is in agreement with his expressed con
viction."
Referring to the charge that the crit
icisms of the covenant were not con
structiye, Senator Lodge pointed out
number of ways in which he would
amend the treaty, laying especial stress
on the need of protection of the Monroe
doctrine.
THE hour is rapidly approaching"
said Mr.. Lowell in summing up his plea
for the covenant, when we must decide
whether our country shall take it's place
like great and generous nation side by
side with Others as guardians of law,
order and justice in the world, or wheth-
er it shall turn its face from a world in
agony"
He prefaced his argument with the
statement that, although he had always
been IAN inconsistent Republican" and
frequently had been in agreement with
Senator Lodge, he could not agree with
his utterances on the league of nations
covenant, and still less with those of his
senatorial colleague
DR.. Lowell maintained the correctness
of the covenant in principle, arguing
that while Every defective in its draft
ing" and "easily misunderstood" it
should be accepted and improved"
He described it as an experiment in
open diplomacy.
To meet certain objections raised, DR..
Lowell advocated the insertion of clauses
in the covenant permitting Withdrawals
from the league on reasonable notice,
STIMULATING that no foreign powers shall
acquire any possessions on the American
continents and making it perfectly clear
that immigration and tariff problems are
to be regarded as purely internal affairs.
Half of the audience was made up of
members Of the legislature, federal and
state judiciary, governors of New Eng
land states, army and navy officers,
members Of the Harvard faculty, dele
gates of the Central Labor union and
personal guests of the debaters. The
other half represented the lucky ones

chance from 25 times as many applica-

ECONOMIC BATTLE OVER WOMEN.
Great Britain Concerned Over the $780,
900 Unemployed Women.

London, March 20 Correspondence Of
the Associated Press).-An economic
battle is being waged over the 100000
unemployed women of the country who
earned good wages. chiefly as munitions
workers during the war, Some English
newspapers and commentators are ask
ing il a sex war is one of the sinister
possibilities of the future They point
out that the situation is more dangerous
than when the suiTragettes were wont to
smash windows aud terrorize the London
police because the women did not then
know the full measure of their power
Since the armistice was signed it has
become more and more apparent that
these 100000 women workers would
have to return to private life so as to
give opportunity Of employment for re
turning soldiers, But they have not ac-
cepted the situation with good grace,
and have answered the challenge of the
economic condition by strong organiaa-
tiOns whose ayowcd intention is to safe
guard the position of woman in industry.
The most important of these is Lady
Rhondda's newly iuaugurated Woman's
Industrial league, which has opened Of
fees in London and sent organizers into
all parts of the country. Lady Rhond-
da s plans are viewed with suspicion and
some measure of distrust by professional
woman labor leaders.
DR. Marion Phillips, chief woman off
Ger OF the labor party, asserts that the
agitation conducted by Lady Rhondda's
league is calculated to lead to bitterness
and sex strife between men and women
workers.

KAHN POINTS
WAY TO ESCAPE
HEAVY TAXES
California Congressman Says
People Must Cooperate
With Government

Congressman julius Kahn of Cali
| fornia, senior member of the Military
/ Affairs Committee of the House, in a
signed statement given out at Wash
ington, reviews briefly some of the
problems confronting the government
In postwar finance and urges the
country to help. congress hold down
taxes. He said:
How is the United States going to
pay her war debts which are now be-
ginning to flood the nations treasury ?
The outflow of public funds today is al
most on a par with the expenditures
made while the war was raging. Al
though there are no more munitions or
implements of war to be purchased,
the engines of destruction which Amer
lean factories created to bring about
the downfall of the imperial govern
ment of Germany have not all been
paid for. Then there are the heavy
expenditures incident to readjusting
the world from war to peace basis.
Reconstructlon Cost Heavy.
1T is no news to students of history
to be told that the expenses of post
war reconstruction have always been
as great and many times greater than
the actual war outlay. Food must be
shipped to our boys who are still on
foreign soil. Money must be raised
to further projects having to do with
fitting these noble heroes of ours with
suitable occupations. Those who have
been manned must not be made to
come into competition with the sound
Where is the money to come from?
The people themselves, although they
lent patriotic and wholehearted sup
port to the governments war program
and made unprecedented sacrifices,
keenly felt the effect of the taxes i'm
posed in the revenue bill such as they
had never faced before and would have
not submitted to except in view of ex-
traordinary circumstances. Now that
the war is over we must find some
way of raising money to finance the
various necessary projects confronting
the nation.
People Must Cooperate.
The people must cooperate, and they
can cooperate without paying heavy
taxes They can cor .inue to invest in
War Savings Stamps, Liberty Bonds
and other government securities, and
help the government by helping them
selves.
The government offers its citizens a
two-fold proposition, mutually helpful.
Funds can be raised to help the gov
eminent meet its obligations, by the
patriotic cooperation of the people,
who are at the same time making as
safe an investment as can be made
in securities, backed by the most stable
business on earth, that of Uncle Sam"

Failure of Some Districts t.
Reapportion Causes
Change in Plans


Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not
be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as
planned by the Treasury Department
the first of the year. 1t was announced
last January by Lewis B. Franklin,
director of war savings, that wherever
Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded
the amount OF oversubscription would
be taken from the coming loan quota
and that IL the Thrift Stamp quotas
were not reached the deficiency would
be added to the loan quota.
Governor James K Lynch of. the
Federal Reserve Bank has just
received telegram from Washington
advising that the plan to adjust Vic
tory Loan quotas in accordance with
the sale of War Savings Stamps has
been abandoned. The reason given
was that some of the Federal Reserve
Districts were not reapportioning
Thrift Stamp quotas.

even the officers, knew at first that the
vigorous youngster, so good and milo
of temperament, so magnificent in his
reckless courage, was Prince Umberto

The hour of danger found him calm

amazed at his deeds of valor. When
they praised him Corporal Macmillan

even under fire, to start school for
the illiterate. The pupils attended will

Macmillan Mombello, was in truth

warding the studious at the close Of
the lessons. A draught of wine, por-
ton of bread were ready for all in his
trench ration. His greatest Joy was
on the arrival of the mail in the eve
ming. If the enemy permitted, he de-
voted himself to reading and writing
letters. He was often surprised, moved
or disturbed by the letter he received
or sent-a letter from his mother or to
his mother.
One day, however, it leaked out
among the officers that Mombello was
the Prince Salemi of royal blood. 1t
was passed along to the stupefied SOL
diers. "What?T they asked him. "Are
you a royal highness?" "Yes," the
count answered. what of it?" The
answer reassured the soldiers.

to be known again as the count Of

Savoy, he remained their corporal and

he was promoted, to become later a
