Junkinr the League OF Nations

y rational man who can read and under
l stand the English language can longer
doubt the purpose of the Republican party
at this moment TO scrap the league OF ma
tons covenant if that party is returned to
power. The responsible leaders OF that or
sanization have passed the sentence Of
death upon this instrument at last. and it
only remains for the country to endow
them with sufficient power TO execute that
sentence.
When the Harding speech of acceptance
was first delivered, there was difference
OF opinion as To its intent with respect to
the paramount issue OF the campaign. To
the league supporter within his party, he
seemed to favor reconstructed covenant,
to favor the existing structure with GER
tain definite reservations and to favor only
such an ovcrhauling as would "American
ize' the measure and forever preserve the
sovereignty" OF the nation. But to the
antileague group OF leaders, he seemed TO
condemn the whole business, to wipe the
slate clean and TO call for brand-new
deal.
All debate the subject is ended.
The Republican nominee has thrown the
whole works overheard. He washes his
hands completely OF the Wilson covenant.
declaring that since his opponent had an
nounced that he, Governor Cox, was willing
10 10 INTO IL, lie 1elt IL incumbent upon
himself to declare just emphatically that
he would stay out. Instead he proposes
in 4 vague and uncertain fashion to create
new league for the prevention of war, bas-
ing it upon The Hague program for inter
national arbitration.
AT last, therefore, the issue between the
two candidates and the two parties is
clearly joined Almost at the same hour
that Senator Harding was making his
speech in Marion. Senator Lodge was max
ing another in Boston to the same effect
These TWO men boldly repudated their own
records as members OF the United States
Senate They abandoned the reservations
for which they fought and voted They
denounced the league which they had sup
ported. They served notice that the
GROWING achievement in the life of Wood
row Wilson had to be junkcd in order that
something better might be evolved.
The Harding and Lodge speeches have
been skillfully timed and the stage is un-
doubtedly being set for the triumphant en-
try of Elhu Root with Machiavellian pro-
gram, designed TO stimulate campaign
based on the doctrine that the boys" who
get tho money will get the offices
1t is up TO the people to decide whether
patriotism or pelf shall control America.

Advertising Is Silent
 Salesman Says Expert

Chicago, July 29 = In an address before the Sixth Business Builders Conference" attended by 400 retail merchants of the middle West yester- day. G. R. Schaeffer, advertising man. ager of Marshall Field & Co.,, said:
 Fundamentally advertising is very simple matter. We define it as printed salesmanship. It represents to a million people at one time what your salesman represents to one per son in individual conversation. It gives information concerning your merchandise and your service. This, Of course, is its common use But 1t also should be used to inform the public concerning the policies Of your institution and in this way to create good will and build confidence.
 Essentially. however, advertising is the multiplier of individual selling effort. Just as the character of the impression of your store is made by salesman, so 1t is made by advertis- ing. A poor salesman will make poor impress.on; so will poor adver- Using. Good advertising. like good salesmen, will bring business and prestige to your store. Just as you desire the best in salesmen you should desire the best of advertising.

in San Francisco that the fires started July 21 in an automobile garage owned by an American and that three or four Japanese houses were burned. The consul general called attention to reports that were current chasing the case as incendiarism due to under selling of white merchants by Jap anese merchants in Marysville, and consequently resentment on the part of the former, but he added that the police denied that this was the fact. The consul general concluded by de- claring:
 "It is unbelievable that the case was one of incendiarism connected with anti-Japanese agitators.
 To the consul generals message the foreign office in it's statement adds a
 denial that any of its officials had
 made statements to the Japanese
 press that they thought the fire the work of anti-Japanese agitators. There seems no foundation what 1 ever for reports of map stealing.

Doorn, Holland, July 29 = Doorn has already begun to display the same lack of interest about the former Emperor William or his do- ings as was displayed at Amerongen.
 Only the village busybodies, who like to gossip about everything, speak of him at all and they, of course, try to make mysteries of everything they hear, whispering the stories which, usually, are children of their own fancy.
 This makes it doubly hard for any one to find out what really is going on, and at the same time accounts for the numerous rumors that come from Doorn now and then. Williams inn mediate staff is so close outhed that few real facts slip out,- and the few gossips So prolific, on the other hand that almost anything might be true Or everything false.

U. s. OBJECTS TO JAPAN BEING
 ON SAChALIEN

Tokio, July 29-(By A. P.)-The Japanese government has received a communication from the United States pointing out that America is unable to recognize Japan's occupa- lion Of the northern half of the island of Saghalien.
 It is considered likely that Japan, after mature deliberat1on will for ward an answer to Washington in an attempt to clarify official opinion there and remove any misunderstood ing of Japan's position.
 There are indications that Japan is passing through another nervous crisis concerning her relations with the United States. Numerous inter- pellations have been made in the diet about the American attitude. While the important newspapers are coun- selling their readers to keep cool it Is apparent that certain amount of ap- prehension exists concerning the re- suit of the Congressional inquiry in California. The Japanese, however seem convinced that it is being con- ducted with the utmost fairness and attention is being called to state | ments that a number of Americans ! have come forward spontaneously to
 testify in favor of. the Japanese | Among the incidents which have | tended to fan anti-Ane nerican feeling

make use of good advertising in the newspapers in his business promo ton limits his progress to individual conversation. It is surprising to find how many merchants ares till in this class-eyen in metropolitan cities. The fact that so many merchants have net advertised has spelled the Aladdin success of mall order houses.
 Tt is interesting to note on the other hand how many merchants even in very small towns have built up busin nesses of large volume, extending the radius of their trade territory to and even through competing trade centres. Surely the many well known instances of successes which have been achieved in this way should be a sufficient incentive to all progressive merchants to make 6 thorough study of the subject.
 Advertising is. of course, an ex- pense. But so are salaries for sales men. And you must bear in mind that good advertising will do the work of many salesmen. It vii economize the time of the salesmer you have and make them more eff cient. Also. good advertising reaches people that your salesmen cannot Moreover, that kind of advertising which builds good will and confidence is definite investment; it increases your assets and brings dividends, fol good will is just as surely a capita stock asset-as merchandise"
