HOOVER ON THE LEAGUE.

Herbert Hoover knows Europe better than any
other in America. His judgment upon their
conditions aspirations, ideals and contentious is
probably the soundest among statesmen because
founded upon intimate knowledge We have found
ii wise to listen to him in the past. He will prob
ably have confidence, therefore, in the future
Comes Mr. Hoover and advises the repub-
licans to take a position in favor of striking out
Article of the League of Nationss constitution
and its prompt ratification when so amended.
Article X, all will recall, binds us to our
army and navy to enforce the territorial integrity
of members against external aggressions
Mr.. Hoover may not be much of politician, but
such is our judgment of him. Such a move
would put the republican party in sympathy with
the idea of international cooperation and under
standing in the solving of the worlds troubles and
place upon democracy the burden of advocating
great military establishments to enforce the DEGREES
of the League Council.
No one, unless it be President Wilson, defends
the perfection of the league plan It's friends
believe that by its very existence the nations will
be brought in contact and conference AND that its
defects will be gradually remedied by amendment
until the final perfected plan out of it an
evolution. .
With the element of military compulson re-
moved. moral suasion will take the throne. The
chances of international amity will be greatly inn
proved 20.
But back of moral suasion will always be the
possibility of economic boycott. The nation to which
the rest of the world refuses to ship needed goods
and from whom it will buy nothing will be brought
TO terms very soon without any military compusion
The Journal believes in league of nations; it
does not believe in the League of Nations.
With the amendment by striking out Paragraph
X we could gladly accept it, Time would cure other
defects
BY staying out of any league whatever, leave
our task in Europe only partly done We for a
program of loyalty TO allies to the end. But 1t
must not be a suicidal compact.

LOUISIANA BELIEVERS IN SELL
DETERMINATION.

Governor Cox of Ohio wired message to the
chairman of the democratic committee of Louisiana
to tell 'the Legislature it owes it a duty to the
democratic party to at once ratify the federal suf-
frage amendment"
There you have the same spirit shown when
President Wilson telegraphed to several states to
rattify "for the good of the party Not a word
about it being duty to the women for the good
of the country
The Louisiana legislature had already said nay
to the but urged to reverse for the good
of politicians or other states. Even on the day when
the Cox telegram read in the house a bin to
allow suffrage to women Of Louisiana was defeated
by about two to one.
The wire from the Ohio governor telling Louis
ana's legislature what It should do resulted in a
declaration by speaker that dictation would not
go down there.
The legislature adjourned sine die Thursday
without obeyng orders from thhe president of the
United States. the governor of Ohio, Cummings or
his convention. The democrats down at that lands
end do not seem to have been reconstructed by the
president, and they still think that it is not the
proper thing to take orders from the outside.

pan, Uncle Wiggily kept on until he
had nearly everything washed.
He had put the. soap in and out
of the water until ii was. as slip
perry as q creased pig, and once or
twice he had nearly dropped it.
All of a sudden, just as Uncle
was getting ready to dry the dishes,
the door of the bungalow burst
open and in popped the Skeezicks,
Il have come for my souse!'
grunted the Skee.
Il didn't know you had left any
souse here" said the bunny, trying
to speak bravely. D.. ..
"Well, perhaps it would be more
proper to say l have come for your
souse," snickered the Skee, for l
have. ] am going to nibble souse
off your ears!'
He made a grab for Uncle Wig
gily, the Sltee did. but the bunny
jumped back and the Skee knocked
down on the floor the slippery
cake of wet soap. 1t slid under the
sink. . ..r
"Oh, excuse. mel" said the Skee,
who could be polite when he wish
ed. II didn't mean to do that
Wait until l pick up the soap, ana
then III get your souse for my

He reached for the soap, the
Skee did, but, just as he got his
skinny paws on it the soap took
another slide. and went under
chair. Hama .a.-.. ...,
"Oh!" cried the skee; "Tn have

He made another grab for the
slippery cake, and this time the
soap took a sort of roller skate I'M.

Skee, and he reached under in
such a hurry that he bumped his
head and Uncle Wiggily couldn't

once more he reached for the soap
but as he got his paws on ii the
soap took another slide. This time
it skidded over toward the door,
which the Skee had left open.

grab for the soap that he fell over

down the steps, bumpity bump

shut the door and locked it and
cried:
Now you can't get my souse!'
And the Skee couldn't And he
didn't get the soap, either, for 1t
was too dark. SO the Skee had to
go away, not having any souse or
soap, and Uncle Wfggily finished
drying the dishes and everything
was all right and Nurse Jane had
a nice time at the pictures. SO III

INTEREST IN POLITICS.

Many men can remember how boys they used
to listen, while old timers gathered at their hang
outs ond discussed politics 1t used to be the pre-
dominant theme of talk at noon hours in shops,
around the grocery store stoves in winter in barber
shops and other centers.
Today with athletic sports, business problems,
movie shows, plays and all kinds of entertainments,
and social activities of many kinds to take up atten-
tion, multitude of people consider politics only in
very cursory way. They line up with the type of
people with whom they feel most Sympathetic, and
vote with, them election day. But many could
not give any ordered reason for their choice.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
DISHES.
(By Howard II. Garis.)

One evening, after supper had
been served in the hollow stump
bungalow, where Uncle Wiegily
Longears, the bunny rabbit gentle
man, lived with his muskrat lady
housekeeper, Nurse Jane Fuzzy
Wuzzy, there came a knock on the
door.
Goodness! I wonder who that
is?" spoke Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy, as
she stopped rafting the supper
dishes, which she was washing.
'Tll go see" offered Uncle Wig
gily, hoping it wasn't Pipsisewah,
the Skeezicks or the Skuddlema-
COON. And it was not, I'm glad 10
say, for it was Mrs. Wibblcwobble,
the duck lady.
ooh, Nurse jane" quacked Mrs.
Wibbtewobble, Cant you come TO
the movies with me this evening p"
They have a most wonderful film
about the adventure of the Man
in the Moon. DO comet"
"Oh, I'd love to-" exclaimed
Nurse Jane, but haven't done
the dishes, and
Nonsense! Let the dishes got"
said Uncle Wiggily, who was listen
ing to what Mrs. Wibblewobble was
saying.

go to the movies!" laughed Nurse
Jane.

wights who swell the toiling
throngs, I've always stood up for
my rights, and whooped about my
wrongs. I've paved around in
noble rage, and shed all kinds of

my wage was no concern of mine.
