On Board the "Wayfarer,"
 Wednesday.

On Board the 'Wayfarer,"
 Wednesday. Joan Dearest:
 l still have a feeling of unreality-- that all this exciting melodrama of Randy and John Herron's meeting Is find myself still Herron's secretary, working like mad, half admiring him, half longing to do some desperate act to throw him off his balance.
 But no, I have done my last service for him. I have set my desk in order, and the old secretary-Watts-- ho fell ill at Silversand. has wired he can come back.
 AS 1 sit nere writing, l can hear echoes of the strange affair still going on. Randy and Heron are talking in the office. Only 1t is Randy who is laying down the law, and--miracle of miracles--John Heron who is listen ing and assenting.
 You will agree, then" l just ovcr- heard Heron saying not to mention the Ridgeloy Lakes land development affair 10 Mills and the directors?"
 "Solely on condition that you mako a decent repayment from your private funds to the people you robbed" was your Randy's reply.
 Also" Randy continued in a cool, even voice, II insist upon your getting a full retraction and apology from ., x.r;Fc ut " St hr circulated in Bentsville about Miss Narick. Yes, l quite understand it will he hard to get But get it. John Heron has the reputation of getting whatever he goes after, hasn't he?" Randy mocked.
 There was silence. I could see a mental picture of Heron sitting there, outwardIy stolid and serene, but inwardly fuming and beating his spirit against the bars erected with such amazing suddenness by this ob- scure young man, Randall Lewis, of Bentsville.'
 He will agree to all of Randy's terms--he must. He had one weak link in his armor-and Randy found it. His whole earthly am biton Is for power. Yet he is wise. He knows man cannot hope for big success with n black chapter in his life like that Ridgoley Lakes affair.
 l see John Heron learning his lesson, carefully repairing his mis- take and going smoothly on, wary, hard and shrewd, but suCcessful-- gaining the presidency of the road, but forced to walk the straight and narrow in order to retain his place of power.
 But, oh, Joan darling, what of me? l feel smirched and unclean. l never realized the ugly dings I was creating in the dear home town l love. I, too. was ambitious. Not for power, dear, but for the chance

ment being to insure Persia an OPP

Curzon, government leader in the House

night in honor of the Foreign Minister

The speakers admitted there had

An EZRA of chaos and confusion in
Asia was forecast by Earl Curzon,
who declared it would be some time
before stability is restored in regions
formerly dominated by Russia and
Turkey.
Bulwark to Worlds Peace
when we speak of the independence
of Persia" Earl Curzon said, "mean-
ing the political and national indepen-
dence Of the country, contend now, as
have always contended. that the in
dependence of Persia is a British as
we'll as a Persian interest Indeed, our
main interest in Persia is its indie
pendence.- We do not want Persia to be
mere buffer against our enemies. We
want her to be a bulwark for the peace
of the world

terence for mandate in respect to
Persia. Had it been offered, we should
not have accepted it. I do not conceal
from myself that. fully as we under

rest, in the main, upon a misconcep-

affairs in this agreement

any attempt to set up British pro
tectorate over Persia In any case it
would have been impossible. because
Persia would have resented and re-
sisted it. and | should have regarded
it as inimical to British interests.
We have, or shall have, as result
of this war, enough to do in the East
ern parts of the world. If nation
assumes protectorate, it also assumes
certain responsibilities which have
tendency to attain the wei ght of a
heavy burden. Above all, it is COM
PEELED to give financial assistance on
scale which may ultimately be over
whelming. Those who believe the
British are going, as a result of this
agreement, to settle down in Persia
and to Anglicize, to Indianizc or
Europeanize it in any sense of the
term are grossly mistaken

lied labor in France were adopted at
the closing session of the Federation
of Labor here last night. A large ma
jority was shown in the vote, this be-
ing considered as an approval of the
attitude of the labor leaders during the
war
The resolutions demand the national
lzatlon of industries under the control
of producers and consumers, and the
atlona!lzatlon of transportation
mines. water power and banks.
They point out that this does not
mean an extension Of the attributes of
the state nor the submission of indus
tries to functionalism, with its ir-
responsibility and constitutional vices
1t is declared that by naturalization
is meant the contiding of national prop
erty to those interested the most--thc

The convention affirmed its solidar-

charged the executive committee to de-
mand that unions in transportation

some misunderstanding. There is a
passage IN 1t which says the two gov

existing customs tariffs and it seems
to have been inferred that Great Brit
ain is claiming the right to revise
customs treaties not only between Per-
STA and Great Britain but between Per-
STA and foreign powers. An examina-
ton of the text shows there is no
ground for this suspicion. We claim
no exclusive rights for ourselves to
