UNITED Press Leased Wire Service1
LONDON, July IT, Debate con-
tinued in the house Of commons until
midnight over Sir Edward Carson's
recent threat to call out the Ulster
volunteers to oppose home rule in
Ireland.
Attorney General Hewart made a
brilliant legal defense Of the govern
ments inability to take action and
obtained a sufficient majority to de-
feat the motion of John Clynes, la
borite, for prosecution of Carson.
Both liberals and laborites, however,
expressed dissatisfaction with Hew-
arts statements, who said there was
nothing in Carson's speech to warrant
legal proceedings.

Friendly to LEAGUE.

! WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE sen.
ators invited by President Wilson to
confer with him today on the league
of nations either have been openly
friendly to the. league Or have been
open to conviction.
Senator Colt, of Rhode Island, who
hitherto has maintained silence re.
garding his position, has prepared a
speech declaring strongly in favor of
! the covenant, it was learned today.
He will leave his position on reserva-
tons open, however.
Senator McCumber, North Dakota,
the first to see President Wilson, has
been recognized republican advocate
of the league. Senator Jones, Wash
ington, was at first rather hostile to
the league, but in a Fourth of July
speech endorsed it. Senator Nelson,
Minnesota, has been regarded as
doubtful regarding reservations or
amendments.
Senator McCumber said, following
his call at the white house, that his
views regarding the treaty and reser-
yations to it had not been changed
There was no attempt to change
them" said McCumber. President
Wilson told me some facts concerning
some inside discussions at Versailles
relating to the reasons why certain
rroviions of the treaty were written
as they are. AS the president desired
the conversation to be confidential
cannot discuss it any further
Today's developments in the league
fight centered around transfer of
Shantung to Japan. They included:
Passage by the senate of the
Borah resolution requesting the presi-
dent to give the senate the alleged
Lansing Bliss-White protest against
the Shantung settlement
PA speech by Senator Colt, Rhode
Island, announcing his support Of the
league but leaving his position on res
ervation open.

of resolution deploring the
settlement and expressing
the hope on behalf of the United
States that this manifest injustice
may be speedily reconsidered and rem
edied."
"A speech by Senator Sherman,
Illinois, condemning the Shantung

Of modern times"

DOROTHY DIX TALKS
The yaIuc of Good Manners.
By DOROTHY DIX
worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.

The Value of Good Manners.
so 1 asked him to go to lunch with
me one day. intending to make it a
little festival for him. and over our
coffee to tell him that the plum had
dropped into his mouth. It was the
first time L had had any social con-
tact with him. and great Heavens. after
the first spoonful of soup knew that
it was not even possible to consider
him for the place. You could hear
him eat all over the place. He didn't
eat, he gobbled. He wolfed his food
down like starving dog. He had
not the mcst elementary idea of how
to handle a fork and spoon. and I
realized instantly that could not send
this boor to represent my firm among
cultured and refined people.
"Of course. the boy lost his job. His
lack of manners made him impossible.
but my conscience isn't clear. / feel
that I should tell him why he missed
his great opportunity. and so give him
a chance to learn the etiquette of the
table instead of going thru life falling
over his knife and fork and balked
by his spoon
commend the consideration of
these two stories. both of which are
absolutely true. to the consideration of
all young men, and of all parents Of
boys.
Somehow We all have the idiotie
impression that it does not matter
what kind of manners a man has and
that to practice the small elegancies
of life is rather effeminate than other
wise. In pursuance of this theory We
send our girls TO finishing schools
which are especially designed for poll
ishing rough feminine diamonds but
boys schools frankly neglect this irn-
porta mt part of a youths education.
Parents also put much stress upon
teaching their little girls to be ladies'
but they do not try to teach their boys
to be gentlemen. In the same family
the small girl will make you a cour-
tesy when she is presented to you and
the small boy will stand with his hat
on and not even grunt greeting when
he is introduced to you. Also the
small girl will be taught to eat like a
LADY while the small boys is permitted
to eat like a pig.
Yet If either a. boy or girl is to be
| taught good manners 1t is more i'm
portant for the boy than the girl. be-
cause he goes out into the word where
strangers judge him by his manners.
while she stays at home where family
affection may forgive hers.
| Good manners are a letter Of credit
| that the world honors at sight. Bad
| manners shut every door in a mans
| face. Emerson once said:
| Give a boy an address and accom-
mastery of palaces and fortunes
| wherever he goes He has not the
trouble of earning or owning them;
! they solicit, him to enter and possess"

THE REDS MUST GO.

The murder of American citizens at
Centralia, Wash, by alien assassins
should and probably will hasten the
action of the federal government in
the campaign which it has inaugural
ed against the ReF~. The law of self
preservation applies to nations as well
as to individuals, When life itself is
threatened one must strike quickly,
decisively and without apology. The
recent raid upon the Reds in many
cities of the country, conducted by the
government authorities. is little less
than an act of self-preservation In
the minds of the general public there
exists an impression that it might have
been well for the country had the seiz-
ure- of the agitators and Bolshevist
sympathizers been carried out long
ago.
For the Red advocates of direct
action says the Denver Times, We
recommend this form of direct ac-
ton" on the part of the government
as the best calculated to discourage
radical propaganda. The announced
intention of deporting the leaders will
be received. not with shouts OF joy
alone. but with prayers OF thanRsgiv-
ing thruout the nation.
The United States has tolerated the
presence of these adventures far too
long. They are in the nature of hu-
man vermin infesting the body polite
| of decent America. We must be rid of
them in order to live. They are no
more welcome here than a disease, but
until their activity reaches a critical
phase we carelessly and steadfastly re-
fuse to get excited enough to eradicate
them.
Sending them back to the place
| from which they came seems an ap-
propriate method OF disposing of them.
There they will find in full bloom the
conditions which they seek to create
over here. And they should be made
plainly to understand that if they are
caught in the United States again no
further clel 1ency will be extended.
