IS BEHIND
LEAGUE OF NATIONS,
C. 0. P. ANNOUNCES

MARION, o., Aug. "A claim Of
complete Republican unity behind
senator Harding and the League Of
Nations issue was made in an official
statement issued today by Harding
Headquarters here.
Republicans of all sections and
groups are solidly in favor of Senator
Harding's attitude" the statement
said
"This is proved by thousands of let
tiers and kilograms from each State,
among which the numbers from States
comonly Democratic are not less than
amazing. A large percentage are
moreover from men who describe
themselves as having heretofore been
Democrats"
A prediction that Irish sympathizers
will support Harding and Coolidge
was made by Representative VIM f

of the fight in Congress for Irish rec

ter he had conferred WITT the nominee
Friends of Ireland, of course, have
to be for Harding" the statement said
Article 10 OF the League of Nations
covenant would hitch Ireland to Eng
land forever. and bind us to help keeT
ii there, and Governor Cox has
pledged himself to support the Wilson
program"
Representative Mason predicted
that the Republicans would carry Ill
nois by at least 100000, and that th'
Republican national ticket would b,
elected by a majority, "the most over
whelming since Grants"

MOTHERHOOD
TO RULE POLITICS

True feminine idealism viii domin-
ate the work of the brainy and able
women politicians who from now will
figure largely in American politics, ac-
cordinc to Mrs Charles Landon Dono-
hoe. who represented California al the
San Francisco Convention. Mrs Dono-
hoe is visiting Washington prelim-
mary TO attending the Cox notification
ceremony at Dayton, Ohio.
Women are needed in politics. :
said Mrs. Donohoe, "but in their enter
ing this field does not mean that they
will sacrifice one iota of their woman
lv idealism. On the contrary, they
will direct their energy along its
natural lines and bring to the world
of politics a new, clean force inimical
TO everything that savors of sharp
practice and demanding that America
attain the very highest measure pos
sible in civic righteousness and that
humanity and kindness run through
the fabric of government.
along these lines lies woman's
mission in the public life of the
United States. Politics will not make
woman mannish. but women will make
politics represent the motherhood OF
the nation

honor at the Women's Press Club
luncheon in Washington Friday and
was entertained in the evening by

COB" TO BE MIDDLE;
N. r. HELPED HIM

Although this "gob" had the re-
CURED education and intellect to pass
the rigid entrance examinations to the
United States Naval Academy, this
city. he didn't have the $3.50, which
the law stipulates each man must de-
post in order to pay for text books
and other expenses.
The young man, who was an APP
prentice seaman attached to the naval
training station at Great Lakes, ILL.,,
was up in the air. As there was no
appropriation TO cover such a case it
looked as though he would have TO
forego entering the Academy until
next year.
The matter was brought to the at
tention of the Illinois auxiliary or the
Navy Relief Society, with the result
that that organization, promptly put
up the necessary sum and the young
man now. will be one OF the new class

OVER
DEFICIENT MIDD|ES

New legislation relating to mid
shipmen that failed in their exam ira
tions and the Interpretation given by
tie naval officials thereto are likely
10 be the occasion of severe criticism
in Congress at the next session.
The legislation is a clause in the
last general deficiency appropriation
bill, reading as follows: THAT until
otherwise provided by law, no mid
shipman found deficient at the close
OF the last and succeeding academic
terms shall be involuntariiy discon-
tinued al The Naval Academy or in
the service unless he shall fail upon
denomination in the subjects in
which found deficient at an examina-
ton to be held at the beginning OF
the next and succeeding academic
terms, and the Secretary OF the Navy
shall provide for the special instruc-
ton OF such midshipman in the sub
iects in which found deficient during
the period between academic terms.
At the last examination at Annapo-
lis about fifteen midshipmen were
found deficient and were recommend
ed by the academic board to be drop
ped, an action that was prevented by
enactment of the new legislation.
Steps we're taken at once 10 provide
for the special instruction specified
as an aid to the midshipmen in quail
flying in the succeeding examination.
1t appears, however, that this sud
denly was terminated, and the aca-
demic board recommended that the
young men involved be turned back
10 lower classes. Thereupon, some
of them submitted their designations
on the ground that the proceeding was
violation of the law and deprived
them OF a right claimed 10 be theirs
by virtue of the clause quoted.
The judge advocate general of the
navy rendered an opinion that sus-
tanned the action of the academic
board. which, it is explained in the
Navy Department, further supports
its application of the law by point
ing out that II would be unfair 10
other midshipmen that were less def
cient than those recommended for
separation from the academy and
who were turned back to the lower
classes, while those sufficiently dei-
cient to be dropped, according to the
recommendation of the academic
board were to be specially instructed
with view to their restoration to
the original classes.
1t is insisted by those that were
instrumental in having the law en-
acted that its plain provisions have
been fagrantly violated and delib-
erately defeated, whatever arguments
may have been advanced at the Ma
val Academy for the departmental
construction of the statute. In the
meantime, the naval officials are
planning to ask Congress to repeal
the clause, as something opposed to
the policy Of the administration Of the
academy and a departure from a
practice that has prevailed since 1852
