Putnam Defends Stand ON
Ireland and Americanism
Says He Spoke With Gladstone
for Home Rule and Fought
in the Civil War

George Haven Putnam. the publisher
declared yesterday that he had "been
for home rule for Ireland ever since
the question came up" and that he
had proved his Americanism by fight
ing through the Civil War" His lee
ture at Erasmus Hall High School,
Brooklyn, last Monday night was term
mated by demonstration by a Clique
OF disturbers in the audience.
Major Putnam said that the whole
affair had been grossly exaggerated,
that nothing approaching riot oc-
Cured and that the disturbance via S
caused by "hoodums shouting for Ire
land
There were thirty or forty inter-
rup,ters," he said, ''and the rest of the
audience, comprising 25o or 300 per-
sons, was indignant but helpless.
The Interruptions were not based
upon anything said by me. had not
been allowed to make a beginning.
did not have an opportunity OF telling
them that l had spoken with Gladstone
for home rule as far back rs 1887.
THE interrupters contended that I
was not a true American. Ny response,
If it could have been made, would have
been simple. I proved my American
ism by fighting through the Civil War.
Ny ancestors were generals in the
American Revolution.
THE whole thing was based upon
Irish opposition to any word in behalf
of friendly relations between America
and England"
Major Putnam said that he again
would attempt to deliver the lecture
here.

French Cabinet Begins
Fight ON Cost of Living
Departmental Councils of Con.
sumers To Be Established
and Fish Markets Opened

PARIS, Oct. 12.-The Cabinet to-day
adopted program to reduce the high
cost of living in France. Departmental
councils Of consumers are to be es-
tablished, with central council in
Paris.
The use OF fish is to be encouraged
and many fish markets will be opened.
while the expectation Of dairy products
and cheese will be prohibited. The
importation of frozen meats has in
creased and the system Of distribu-
tion has been improved.
A proposal to place a ban on the
serving of meats during the evening in
hotels and restaurants was not adopted
by the Cabinet because it was believed
the measure would only increase the
prices of substitutes for meats A
stricter enforcement Of food laws and
suppression of proftteering are prom
ised by the Cabinet and new regula-
tions will be dra tied to control the
slaughter and sale Of beef in an cf-
fort to check the rapidly rising prices.

By
Heywood Broun

ccme In wringing wet All sorts Of en-
eertalning which can be done in ones
own house are not possible for apart
ment dwellers.
We told H. Sd that it would be much
better for us to visit the honoono+aurs
at ms quarters in the Zoo. Wnen we
got there Woodie regarded him stead
1or more than minute and then said.
fTmiy, Il don't like the hlppopotamus.
want to see other hippopotamus."
we took him to the next cage where
the smaller one lives. but after an
other complete survey ne again piped
up Il don't like the hippopomatus.
want to see other hippopotamus."
OF course, we could not allow our
self to be whipsawed back and forth
IN that manner. We were not disposed
to spend the rest of our life in the
1isillusioning business of huctuatine
from one hippopotamus to another and
back again. Still we could understand
the quandary Of II. Sd because VIC have
read all the campaign speeches of Cox
and of Harding. Without being finicky.
1t seems to US that there ougnt to be a
greater selection of hippopotamuses
and of candidates.
Fortunately, the only form Of ques-
ton which H. Sd uses is to inquire.
How does the zebra go?" or whatever
animal we happen to be visiting. So
far the zebra has kept his peace and
has said nothing to disqualify our
answer Of "cluck, cluck" Nor did tn.
kangaroo hetray US when we hazarded
that he went "galumph! galumph!"
The man who stood next to US with h.
small son outside the llama's cage
was having more difficulty. He WAS
being beset with the inquiry, What
does the llama do" He acted like a
man who had been in the Zoo a good
many hours, for there was weariness
IN his voice when he replied: "Oh. |
guess he just sort Of hangs around"
That was hardly fair to tie bov Of
to the llama either. We don't know
exactly what llama does, but we seem
to remember dimly that he is sent
out from the monastery carrying cold
drinks in q little bottle around his
neck TO rescue travellers who are over
come with the heat in the deserts of
Tibet. We're not quite sure about
that, but we do feel pretty certain
that the llama has an excellent working
record of some kind. Still. perhaps,
In broader sense, the man was right.
He may have been philosopher, and,
from cosmic point of view, what does
any one of all the living creatures here
on Gods footstool do but act like a
llama and just sort of nang around?

Invest in England
And Restore Trade.
Sphinx Club Is Told
Head of American Trade
Board in London Urges
Purchase Cf Goods and
Securities in Britain

America must buy British merchan-
disc in large quantities, and it must
invest money in British securities if
the trade between the two great ma
tions is to be restored on a sound and
growing basis.
This message was delivered to the
Sphinx Club at it's dinner at the Wal
dorf Astoria last night BY Paul E.
Derrick, director of the American
Chamber of Commerce of London.
The exchange rate on British
money is so low and the American
dollar is worth so much" Mr.. Derrick
said, "that the Britisher cannot at
present purchase heavily of American
patronage will help materially in re-
storing the value of British money
and Americans by helping the British
at this time will build for their own
prosperity
Mr.: Derrick was scheduled to talk on
the theme, Applying American Adver-
tising Methods to British Business. !"
he told Sphinx members that American
advertisers should not go into British
markets unless they had definite
policy. England is a slow market !"
he said, "and the Englshman will not
buy an article merely because the ar
ticle is new thing"
Mr.. Derrick also advised against the
use Of American salesmen for British
ampaigns to push the sale of Ameri
can products
Corbett Mccarthy, director Of the
associated Drygoods Corporation, and
Roy Dickinson, associate editor of
prlnters' Ink, were the other speakers
X. f.. r. Huntsman, president O. the
club, was POSTMASTER.
Mr.. Mccarthy said that retail prices
were falling, but that the decline was
gradual. He believes great good would
result from the current changes, he
said. He declared that business in the
retail markets was good, and he at
tributed the prosperity Of the retailer
to the widespread advertising in the
newspapers.
Last nights dinner was the first OF
series planned to commemorate the
twenty-fifth anniversary of the found
ing Of the Sphinx Club.

Archdeacon Stuck.
Arctic Explorer,
Dies at Fort Yukon
Churchman 4 Was First White
Man to Climb MT. McKin.
ley; Rescued Stefansson i'm
l:; Wrote Eeveral Books

:, ArcF deacon Hudson Stuck, Of the
Iuko. the first white man to ascend
Mont Mckinley, died at Fort Yukon.
Alaska. last Sunday. Word of his
death was received yesterday by DR..
John Wood, executive secretary of the
Department Of Missions of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church.
Archdeacon Stuck was born in Eng
land fifty-seven years ago and came
to this country in 1885, graduating
from the theological department., Uni
versity Of the South, Sewanee, Tenn.
in 1892. His appoint tment as Protes
tant Episcopal archdeacon was an
nounced in 1904, after he had served
as deacon of St. Matthew's Cathedral.
Dallas, Tex.
Although Dr. Cook, of North Pole
fame, claimed to have climbed Mt. Nc
Klnley, Archdeacon Stuck, who as
cended it in June, 1913, is generally
credited with having been the first to
reach its summit. He was a fellow of
the American and Royal Geographical
societies, and author Of a number of
books, among them the ascent of
Denall," which is the native name of
Mt. Mckinley.
Another outstanding feature in his
life as an explorer was in 1918 when
he made trip by dog sled along the
northernmost coast of Alaska, res
cued Vilhjalmur Steffansson, the Arctic
explorer, and brought him back to
civilization.
He took an active part in the fight
to have the canneries at the mouth of
the Youkon River closed, as he be-
lieved they were largely responsible
for the small runs Of fish in the Yukon
and the subsequent hardship born by
the Yukon Indians. He was unmarried.

surreptitiously, but frankly and openly

H. Sd stood the encounter pretty

water but pair Of ears and the rather
blunt tip Of nose. Suddenly there
was violent commotion and the hip
popotamus, all twenty tons Of him,
heaved up out Of the water and glared
at US through the bars. H. Sd
clutched us convulsively. There was
more to the animal than he had bar
gained for. Indeed, for the next two
days he greeted even the most casual
reference TO the hippopotamus by
scowling and saying: "He's pretty big"
This did not seem to us an intelli-

size. After all, William Howard Taft.
