FLOG STUDENTS IN ENGLAND.

(Correspondence Associated Fress.l
 London, July 1.-The old custom o1 flogging students is still in vogue Ill British colleges, whose students are as old as the average American col leoe man. The custom is most fol- lowed in the higher class institutions; so that to have been f]ogged at school o1 collepe is said to be the, mark of an aristocrat.
 At Cheltenham college the students hazed Barnwell, the former tender of the college baths because he had deserted the baths, for higher wages in an aircraft factory. They, pom harded Barnwell's house with bricks Tbereupon, Barnwells workmates with several hundred of the ponulace marched to the college and told thelr story to the principal, Archdeac,on Waterfield. It was agreed that the students should pay damages and be flogged by the archdeacon. This was satisfactory to all concerned, includ- ing the students.
 Because of the number to undergo castigation. lots were drawn so that one out of ten of the student body should get the whip. This also was satisfactory to the students. But thls sporting spirit so impressed the bath keepers faction that they pronrose5d, that both sides shake hands and call it off. which was done with mutual regrets and compliments.

Why Preach to Empty
 Pews, Asks Minister

New York, Aug, 7.--How can min isters of the gospel content them selves with preaching to empty pews? Pews do not need to be con verted-such a question is asked by Dr.. Christian F. Reisner, president of the Church Advertising depart ment of the Associated Advertising clubs of the world. ."
 Il have never seen a church adver- tise without building up good at tendance" he said, today, "and con- sidering that fact in connection with the fact that it does not pay to preach to empty pews, one would wonder that more churches are not , employing paid advertising space"
 In speaking of the church adver- Using conference whichswill be held in connection with the world conven- tion of advertising, at New Orleans, Sept. 21 to 25, Dr. Reisner predict ed an unusual interest, because he said the original objection to the use of advertising by the church--that it tended to rob the church of it's dig nity-had fallen, especially since the government has employed advertis- ing so widely and with such marked success, to help win the war.
 "The church must sell itself by advertising" said the minister. Ut must meet the competition of Sun- day golf and automobiling. If we accept the statement made recently to the effect that 50 million people do not go to church we may then con- sider every other person a possible customer"

ALLIES AID MONARCHISTS.

Correspondence Associated Press.)
 Berlin, July 1O.-The Vorwaerts de- clares that the entente, by demand ing the surrender of the former Ger man emperor is affording the mon- archists an opportunity for noble poses, which is calculated to win sympathy for Count Hohenzollern and his defenders. "A bit of prud- ence might have told the entente that much in advance" the paper adds. The Pan-German Deutsche Zeitung says: "The German people, who os June 18th, 1919, day of dishonor, in cowardly traitorous flight surrender ed it's imperial master will again re- move this blot from it's ecutcheon."

Britain Reserves Decision.

London-The adoption by the Unit
ed States Senate of the reservation
to Article 10 of the League Of Ma
lions covenant is considered INSULT
cient to draw an official declaration
from the British Government as to it's
attitude. 1t is pointed out that the
reservation has not been signed by
President Wilson. Moreover, it IS
noted, until the United States asks
Great Britain to assent formally to
the proposal it is impossible to fore
cast what Great Britain's response
will be.
The position of Great Britain at the
moment is believed to be that the
treaty is virtually a finished product
and that she is strongly inclined to
support the pact she already has
signed. The general belief expressed
here is that the Senate's reservation,
If approved, would necessitate new
treaty, since the reservation is held
to render worthless one Of its cardinal
clauses.
In view of this grave possibility,
Great Britain's future attitude Is nee
essarily problematical until the Unit
ed States has reached final decision.

But Declare Any Changes Which

Paris.-The French Foreign Office
considers the reservations to the Ger

Senate as constituting question Of
extreme delicacy, and the Office is not
disposed at present to make any Of
fetal statement on the subject Never
theless. persons of importance in
French diplomacy express the view
that the French Government, would be
disposed to accept reservations by the
American Senate which would not re-
quire France and its Allies to reopen
questions already settled by the pleni.
potentiaries.
On the other hand, they hold that
any Senate amendment comprising
the essential bases of the Versailles
treaty, textually ratified by the Allies
and Germany, could not be favorably
accepted by the Allies. They declare
that the French policy-agreeing in
this with the British-is disposition
to accept the giving to the treaty by
America of such Interpretation as its
future foreign policy would entail, but
that changes which would require the
creation of International arrange
ments different from those to which
the American plenipotentiaries sub
scribed on June 20 could not be ac-
cepted.

MEXICO ORDERED
ARMS FROM ABROAD.
PREPARATION for Possibility Of
U. S. Intervention
SOME DELIVERED BY SPAIN
Spain Not Party To international
Arms Convention-Munitio Or
dered BY AeuiIar After Placing /,
Wreath At Mount Vernon.

Washington.-Large orders for arms
and ammunition, placed by Mexico in
Belgium and Spain, in preparation for
the possibility Of American interven-
ton, came to light when the State
Department let it become known that
the Government had taken steps to
prevent their shipment.
The Charge d'Affaires of the United
States Embassy in Brussels has pro-
tested, under instructions, that ship
ment of the munitions would be in
violation of the international arms
convention. AS Spain is not party
to the agreement, which was designed
to aid in keeping the peace of the
world during the after-the-war transit
ton period, no such direct action is
probable at Madrid. N
The order in Belgium was placed
with the Fabrique Rationale d'Arms
at Liege, probably underi the direc-
ton of Candida Aguflar, Mexican min
lister of foreign affairs, and President
Carranza's sohinlaw, who went to
Europe recently after stopping here
and placing wreath on George
Washimgton's tomb at Mount Vernon
The Spanish munitions, according
to information in the hands of the
Government, began passing into Mex.
leo more than year ago, while the
European war still was going on and
in violation of the inter-Allied EN-.
barge. Rifles and ammunition and
some sample machine guns are report
ed to have passed Havana on their
way to Mexico as late as June of this
year. For later shipments, cargo
space had been reserved for October
10, on Holland-American line steam
ers sailing out of Antwerp, and fur
Their space had been reserved for
Tampico, Vera Cruz and Puerto, Mex.
leo, on December 8.
The United States has been deny
ing shipments of arms and ammuni-
ton into Mexico for many months,
for the reason that they generally fell
into the hands of bandits and often
were used against Americans. Soon
after the end of the war the Mexico
Government asked for the release of
munitions bought in this country il
1917, but it was refused.
1t appears, from the Governments
information, that, while the Peace
Conference was in session in Paris
and General Mondragon, prominent
Mexican, was there advising his Gov
eminent of its probable course toward
Mexican affairs, and particularly the
attitude of the United States, the.
Spanish munitions makers with whom
large orders already had been placed,
were being urged to speed up the de-
livery of powder and cartridges and
particularly of the machine guns
which were reported to be new type
described as perfect and unimprov.
able.

WARNS OPERATORS
AND THE MINERS
Secretary Wilson Serves Notice
on Both Sides at Farley
DEMANDS ARE IMPOSSIBLE
One OF Hard Problems Before Con-
ference-No 3o-Hour Week Or
so Per Cent. lncrease-oper-
ators Cannot Stand Pat.

Washington. -Demands of coal min
ers for 30Ihour week and a so per
cent. increase in wages and an un-
yielding position by the, operators,
alike were declared impossible" by
Secretary Wilson in opening the con-
ference called to bring peace to the
bituminous fields Of the nation. To
obtain this peace the Secretary pro-
posed three plans of procedure.
Declaring that the Washington wage
agreement still is legally in force, Mr..
Wilson told the operators and miners
that the people of the United States
were not "Shylocks" and do not want
to exact "the technical provisions Of
a bond when the conditions under
which the bond was made have
changed" N
He added that IF any great change
Is made in THE contracts the people
of the United States are the ones
who will have to pay" and through
out his remarks emphasized the pub
lie interest in the coal settlement.
The three proposals expected to aid
the two factions in arranging the new
wage agreement were set forth by the
Secretary of Labor as follows:
First, negotiations through joint
wage scale committees representing
all districts; second, negotiation
through concurrent sessions of com
mittees from the various districts, and,
third, negotiations first of an agree
ment in the central competitive field
and then Of agreements for other
fields with that of the Central district
IS basis.
Indication Of conflict on the scope
OF the agreement to be negotiated in
volving the question of recognition of
non-union workers developed at the
outset of the conference and became
more apparent in the two group meet
ings which followed.
Discussion in the miners caucus
which followed the conference session
hinged on the question whether ope-,
rators representing both union and
nonunion fields would be included in
the conference, and the effect any
agreement reached by the conference
might have in those fields where the
miners do not have contracts with the
operators. Although officers of the
United Mine Workers refused to make
any statement following their meeting
it was learned that the plan for a
nationwide conference was favored,
but before any proposal is agreed to,
Secretary Wilson will be asked to
make clear to the conference that the
rights of organized labor are to be
protected in those districts where the
mining unions are not recognized by
the coal companies.
