Townley Kept Press Assigns
State Superintendent Her
New Duties

The Townley press is now contending
that, while Miss Nelson has been de-
prived Of practically all authority on
educational matters, she has been given
hand in the management Of the Nate
prisons, insane asylums, institutions
for the feeble-minded, reform schools
and tuberculosis sanitarium, as well as
the schools for the deaf and dumb and
blind, and that therefore the league
promise that the board of administra-
tion bill would extend rather than limit
her, powers has been kept. Miss Nelson
was elected to be state superintendent
Of public instruction last fall at a
time when no consideration was being
given to the selection Of woman
warden for the state penitentiary.
Sentiment generally seems to indicate
that the people still would prefer to
tave Miss Nelson serve in the capacity
to which they. and not the very Rev.
George A. Totten, elected her. ,.

Stenographer Present at
Conferences :"..@,,

Washington, D. c., Aug. 15.- STEM
ographic records will be made of the
conference between President Wilson
and the senate foreign relations com.
mittee at the white house on Tues.
day for discussion of the peace treaty
Chairman lodge was so informed in a
le.ted from the president made public
today.
The president said he would have q
stenographer present in order that
the committee might have "a full and
trustworthy record Of what is said"
and suggested that the committee al
SO have stenographer present. It
was understood that the official tran.
script would be made public.
Twenty G. o. p. Senators for II.
More than twenty republican sena-
tors are ready to stand for quick rati-
fication Of the peace treaty with reser-
vatiOns democratic leaders in the SEN
ate were formed today by leaders Of
tine republican group Of reservation ad-
vocates.
Republicans favoring reservation said
poll disclosed that upwards of thirty
senators Of their party would supoN
reservations along the general line laid
down by the seven republicans if the
treaty could be brought promptly out
Of committee and ratified on that basis.
Although Senator Hitchcock Of Ne
raska, the administration leader, still
disclaims any part in the negotiations
for a settlement, it was apparent that
the move h adreached proportions
which might treaten the plans Of the
committee for calling additional wit
nesses and prolonging consideration Of
the teaty.
Senator Hitchcock had an appoint
ment to see President Wilson at the
White House late today and was ex-
pected to lay before him the whole
senate situation, especially as regards
prompt committee action. The admin
istration leader declined to say whether
he would suggest a change in the an
nounced stand of the administration
against reservation.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 15.-The
high cost Of living is the result of op-

In an address in the senate today.
Many Of the remedies proposed to

they are artificial, Senator Red said.
and designed to disturb national oper-
ations OF economic tendencies. In.
crease in production, the Missouri
senator said, would be the greatest
factor toward reducing prices.
Can't Disregard Principles.
There are two great principles of
economics and finances which can
not be disregarded and which no
amount of legislation can effectively
control" the Missouri senator said.
First, whenever the demand for any
great necessary material exceeds the
supply and increase in price is newt.
able. Conversely, when the supply ex.
ceeds the demand a decrease in price
follows. The latter condition may be
temporarily affected by combinations
artifically withholding the supply and
controlling the market. But no COM
bination Of men and no DEGREES of gov
ernment have ever been able to irans-
mute a deficiency into plenty, or to
remove the natural longing for a ne.
cessary article which can not be OBJ
