Expects Change Of Front on

by ORTON TEwsON.

london, June 13. - Relief that
after the fall elections some way
would be worked out for America
to assume her share Of the burdens
attendant on the settlement of
world war was expressed here to-
day by Paul Crayath, formerly
legal adviser to the peace commits
sion.
while there's great reluctance
on the part of the American people
to become entangled in European
boundary disputes" said Cravath,
yet II Is my hope that after the
Presidential elections some new in
ternational arrangement can be
worked out which will afford to the
United States an opportunity to do
its share in carrying the burdens of
the world.
Personally hoped from the
start that the peace treaty would
be adopted with minimum reserva-
tions. but there has developed real
sentiment against the league in it's
present form. To Americans IL
seems more like an alliance than a
tribunal for the settlement of in
ternational difficulties, and while i
don't believe Americans want 10
shirk any responsibility that Is
theirs, there Is strong feeling
against the present constitution of
the league"
Cravath said that the present un-
favorable rate of foreign exchange
had not had the expected effect OF
checking American export trade.
He thought what the country
needed was a falling off In business
to allow a period of readjustment,
but was certain there would be no
financial panic in America.

By CONSTANCE DREXEL.

Geneva, June 13.-TEe brilliant
success of the women of India at
the international suffrage conven-
ton has been one of the features.
1t was not until the hugely attend
ed public meeting Thursday that
an opportunity was given to see
how Eastern women were capable
of taking their share in interna-
tional affairs. As Mrs. Gait. who
was presiding. said, IL anyone is
still so backward as to think wo-
men of the Far East were inferior
to women of the rest of the world
contrary. The Indian delegates sit
ting on the platform had put on
most gorgeous costumes of silks,
richly embroidered with gold and
all cut alike, much in the fashion
Of flowing tea gowns except that
yards of material were used as a
picturesque effect over the head.
Poise Admired.
Three made speeches in perfect
English, with perfect poise. The
Indian poetess. Mrs. Naidau, won a
great ovation. even greater than
Lady Astor. Mrs. Naidau said she
regretted she could not speak in her
own beautiful, native language. but
had TO use the language of those
who now rule India
Mrs. Chandra Sem, who has re-
Gently appeared before committees
in the House of Commons. and Mrs.

societies in India, saying that Great
Britain had accepted the principle
of woman suffrage for India and
that the assembly to be formed will
have to pass on the matter.

Two Japanese delegates also
smoke. They wore native costumes.
Both prophesied that the Congress
would meet in Toxic before many
years.

and Mrs. Josephus Daniels were the
only Western women on the pro-
gram Mrs. Daniels made a speech
as official delegate from the United
States. She spoke of President Will
sons advocacy of the suffrage cause
and of the need for women in re-
construction problems. Various
methods of assistance to widows
and unmarried mothers were
brought up by the European dele
gates. But in these discussions
America took small part as the
necessity for such assistance in
America is not insistent.

of course, the immense weight Of

are constructed with a shrewd and

Therefore, after all De Valera's
schemes to obtain a

Chicago ignored the subject is as
severe a blow as the Sim Fein could
have suffered.
