ANTI-PARIsH SCHOOL
AMENDMENT PUSHED

Practical elimination in Michigan of
private and parochial schools is asked
for in constitutional amendment to
be voted on next spring. Petitions
signed by $4,000 electors were filed
recently with the secretary of state.
The amendment was talked Of last
year and is intended to eradicate
schools not under the state public
school system. 1t was originally in
tended to strike at schools in various
religious denominations in which Ger
man was spoken, but the way the
amendment. is drawn, it practically
kills all schools but those in the public
school system.

GOMPERS SEES GRAVE
LABOR PROBLEMS NEAR

Washington, Jan. 4.-Asserting that
the industrial problems of peace are
even greater than were those Of war;
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, declar-
ed today that the American people
will not stand for repetition of the
conditions of 1898"
Gompers, appearing before the SEN
ate committee on education and labor,
sharply critiZed the utterances of Ger.
tain business leaders that wages must
come down and the hours of labor
lengthen now that the war is over.
"Such sentiments are resented by la
Dor forces the country over" he said.
"They strike discordant note in the
hopes for liberty and a freer life with
the ending of the war and the defeat
of autOcracy. have also talked with
some of the great employers Of the
country and am confident that such
sentiment is not typical"

constructed what he and other prom
inent officers claimed was an impreg-
nable position, veritable death trap
for attackers. And remember, the
Turks are brave fighters.
But the Irish have no official
shouters proclaiming their deeds from
the housetops; nor authors enshrin-
ing their valor in words. In fact, the
dispatches from Gallipoh telling of
the work of the Irish division could be
put in two inches of type in your
paper.
so it is time we said few things
about ourselves instead of letting the
people here get the idea Ireland's
share of the war is trying to help

receive the Protestant bodies there.
He took this course in counsel with
his advisers, planning not to visit the
Methodist college, the visit to which
| by former President Roosevelt a few
years ago, it is recalled, gave rise to
such extended discussion.
In view of the Presidents rejection
Of the papal peace offer months ago,
I, the reception of the American execu-
tive at the Vatican today was looked
forward to with great interest in all
official circles and the warm greetings
exchanged by the President and the
pontiff were commented upon with
much satisfaction here.
The President while here continued
the discussion of ltaly's claims before
the peace conference. but the measure
of the American support of them has
not yet been fully developed.
The present plan is for the presiden-
tial party to reach Paris Tuesday fore

and the regions devastated by the
war, it now has been determined will
not take place until just before his de.
parture for home, the middle of Feb

ONCE MIGHTY RUSSIANS ARE
 NOW PAUPERS

London, Sept. 12.---(Correspondenc of The A. P)---The Russian colony in London is deeply interested in stories which have been coming the last few days from neutral countries concern ing the fate of those who were once mighty in their country. Tn every in stance they tell of hardship, occa- sionally of suffering, and always of poverty and distress.
 In Hclsingfots there is a voung prince, little more than a boy, who IS
 practically barefoot, with no prospect of better shoes when winter comes. The soles have disappeared and. as the story goes. he limps painfully as
 he picks his way over the rough cob bled streets.
 Living in a flat which is little more than tenement in the same city is a Russian nOblcman of high rank. who with fortune and position gone makes his living as a baker
 In other parts of the city. scattered among the meanest and poorest sec uons, may be found scores of persons Wh"se names were not so iong ago very well known in the highest so- Iclety Of Petrograd and Moscow. Some of them work while others manage to eke out a precarius existence from 1 incomes whose source is entirely nm known to their friends Their once | Iashlonable clothing is rapidly going 10 pieces, and, like the prince with the old shoes they know not where tbe Teplacements are to come from.
