AN 1NDuLGENr CREDITOR

From the New Orleans Item.
 The United States has again ap- peared in the role of indulgent and complacent creditor. Having by. its participation in the European war in- volved itself in debts to its allies to- taling ss93. .ooO.o it has turned over to them surplus war supplies and ma- terial at their own figures of sS22, ,o0O, : 900. which likely cost the nation four CT five times as much. and paid the difference in cash
 A less idealistic country would prob~ ably have brought it's supplies home, held onto it's cash. and given Great Britain. France, ct al credit on what they already owe us. but we don't do things that way. Besides. we can al- ways raise the taxes.

THE METAL MONOPLANE

enamel in monoplane, that type has heretofore appeared to be serviceable chiefly for small machines. In the day when an aviator feared to sneeze lest fe lose his balance. the monoplane vas regarded as peculiarly sensitive. And because of the difficulty of truss- ire. a broken wing was frequently the cause of crash.
 With no fabric in the wing surfaces the new plane is weatherproof md fire proof. There may be no fundamental reason why such machines should not be built of any size, although hereto fore the triplane has been supposed to be the type indicated for very large carrying capacity. It would be a revo- Hutton, indeed, if the metal monoplane should supplant the other types for military or commercial service.
 NIGHT TIME ON THE RIVER From ..Twenty Chinese Poems. para phrased by Clifford Bax. Like hundred lowering fireflies round
 the windows far and wide Paper lanterns green or golden burn
 along the riverside. Through the dark I hear splashing ever more and more remote Creak of oars and wash of water rip-
 piling round a hidden boat. Now it fades afar but softly on the
 night that else were mute Come the tender plaintive pipings oe .

GUM DROPS REPLACE POTATOES

From the Washington Star.
 Out in Columbus, Ind, the grocery men have come to the conclusion that they must abandon a traditional cus- tom. They can no longer stick potatoes on the noses of kerosene cans. Spuds cost too much to be used as corks. When the tubers are selling at 12IS cents a pound even the littlest nodule has its value. And so the grocerymen cut there are going to the big -mouthed glass jars that are to be seen in every properly supplied general store and pulling out gum drops for can shoppers. Even at the high price of sugar it lis cheaper to use gum drops than pota- toes. Thus passes another dear old cust--

Washington, June 1.-The Unit

the galleries today by a dozen wo-
men sympathizers with the cause
of Irish freedom.
The women began when Senator
Brandegee, republican, Connecticut,
speaking against the Armenia man

Several of the women were taken

: Washington, June 1.-The STU
preme court held today that federal
constitutional amendments cannot
be submitted for ratification TO a
referendum vote in the states having
referendum provisions in their cCn-
stitutions.
Justice Day in rendering The
courts opinion, which was unani-

"The constitution VI the United
States was ordained by the people,
and, when duly ratified, it became
the constitution of the people of
the United States. The states sur.
rendered to the general government
the powers specifically conferred
upon the nation, and the Constitu-
ton and the laws of the United
States are the supreme law of the
land.
"The trainers of the constitution
realized that it might re-
quire changes. To that end
they adopted the fifth article. This
article makes provision for the pro-
posal of amendments either by two

two-thirds of the states. The
proposed change can only become
effective by the ralificltio1 IF The
legislatures of hree-fourths of the
states, or by conventions in a like
number of states. The method %
ratification is left to the choice of
congress. Both methods of ratifi-
cation, by legislatures or conven-
tions, call for action by deliberate
assemblages representative of the
people, which it was assumed would
voice the will of the people. -
The language of the article is plain
and admits of no doubt in its inter-
freedom.
