der the heading Interior Decorat-
ing
Like architecture, interior decorat-
ing suffered during the w:r, but with
the increase in building the opportun-
tiles will be boundless. Private
homes, apartments, hotels, dormitor-
les. hospitals, churches and office
buildings all must be decorated.
Modern architecture lays more stress
on interior decorating than ever be-
fore.
Fees are substantial. Before the
war some women had studios which
brought them annual incomes OF slo,.
900. And to this splendid reward
should be added the joy that comes
from work which is true delight.

FACING DANGER
SAYS DR.. JAMES
Declares Present System is
Unfair in Present
Democracy.

Chicago. Feb. 26.--Dr. Edmund ].
James. president Of the University Of
Illinois, who for IS years has advo-
Gated a comprehensive system of ma
tional education, discussed that SUBJ
ject before the department Of super
intendence of the National Educa-
tional association here today.
He characterized the varying ia
ciltties and opportunities for educa-
ton under the present localized sys-
tenn as unfair in a democracy where
equal opportunities are pledged to
all.
IT believe that American education
faces a very critical situation" said
DR.. James. Some of our greatest
national interests are in a very seri-
Gus danger. The problems Of our
educational future cannot be success
fully solved in my opinion unless the
nation through the federal govern
ment, the federal congress and the
federal treasury assumes its fair
share Of the financial, administrative
and deliberative burdens involved in
this great problem Of national edu-
cation.
Il am pleading therefore. for these
W things: First, the assumption by
the federal government of. its fair
share of national responsibility for
educational matters: and. second, for
a suitable organization Of the gov
eminent machinery to enable it to do
this" 90
DIR. James urged a department Of
education headed by a secretary with
a seat in tho presents cabinet.

Tilt Over Resolution
In Senate Approving
League Of Nations
Washington,

Washington, Feb. g. Before
formal debate on the league of ma
tons began in the senate today Demo-
Gratis and Republicans engaged in a
tilt over resolutions approving the
league, presented by Senator Pittman
of Nevada, Democrat, from various
organizations. Senator Brandegee said
that if all resolutions adopted on the
subject were placed in the congress
sional record it would bankrupt the
government.
Senator Poindexter. an opponent of
the league. suggested that organiza-
tions endorsing it had been misled by
statements of many prominent men.
Referring to Secretary Daniels recent
statement that an expensive navy or
the league were alternatives, he adj
ded: =
"That is not a fact. Countries can
agree non disarmament by treaty
without entering any league"
Senator Gore offered a resolution
declaring against destruction Of sur
rendered German war vessels in the
absence of a general agreement for
naval limitation.
Senator Cummins spoke for an hour
and thirty minutes and was con-
graduated by a number Of senators
as he. took his seat. -,

CONSTITUTION
WISE AND JUST,
SAYS SEN. OWEN
Declares League Laws Can
Be Perfected to Complete
ly Guard World.

Washington. Feb. Ex-senator
Owen of Oklahoma, Democrat, speak,
ing today in the senate, declared that
while not perfect. the proposed con
stitution Of the league of nations is
wise. sound and just" in it's funda-
mental principles. The senator. who
has just returned from France, urged
the senate to consider the league plan
,constructively rather than Exciting
vague suspicious and arousing the
hostility of people on the theory
that this instrument is full Of pitfalls
and dangerous"
THE peace of the world" declared
Senator Owen, "is too important, the
future happiness and security of our
people is too important that. we should
fail at this wonderfully suspicious
time to adopt a plan which will safe
guard the future of the world.
No thoughtful man, certainly no
with the fallability Of himself and
OF the fallability Of other representa-
tives would expect that this first
formulation of a draft would be
perfect. It is not perfect but it is a
beginning and contains many things
of value. And it al be perfected so
against war, and at the same time
completely safeguard the sovereignty
and absolute independence Of each
n of the member nations"
Replying to critics who asserted
that Article n of the proposed con-
stitution would authorize the supreme
council of the league to invade the
sovereignty of the United States.
Senator Owen declared he was sure
Japan did not contemplate granting
this right to the league, and added:
1T is not necessary for the league
to interfere with the internal affairs
OF any member nation"
So that there would be no misin-
depreciation of the powers of the
league in this matter, Senator Owen
recommended that the proposed con-
stitution BIO amended SC as to pro-
vide that nothing contained in the
instrument itself should be construed
as granting any rights to the, league
over the internal affairs Of member
nations but that every member ma
ton should be recognized as having
complete right over its emigration
and immigration. its imports and ex-
ports and all its domestic affairs with
out any interference whatever by the
league"

owen continued. But the day of
American isolation has long since

We are face to face with the duty

this great nation to bring about Sc
curity and peace of the world.

curity and stability in order that they
may enjoy the rights guaranteed by
