Not Pleasant

1t is not always pleasant to re-
cord truth but there are mothers,
who have sacrificed motherhood
to worldly ambition and the
most unhappy women on earth
are those who have set aside
filial ties in order to live lives of
social frivolity and the time
comes to all such when the bloom
of youth forsakes the cheek, and
the fire of youth dies out, of he
eye. Such often turn to their
homes for sympathy and love,
only to find that they too have
vanished with their personal
charms, and when it is too late
they are unhonored and unloved.
The path of duty is the only safe
path, let it be ever 50 thorny,
and the only safe guide board
points to the home. Grenada

JAPANESE ASK FREE
HAND IN KOREA AND
CHINA BETTERMENT

TOXIC, Sept. marquis Okuma in
receiving the party of visiting Ameri-
can congressman today asked that
Japan be given a free hand in Korea
and China. where her intentions, he
said. were directed toward the better
ment of conditions. Sixty years had
elapsed without the unification OF the
civilizations of the east and the west
for which ne had constantly striven,
said the Marquis, but he was convinced
eventually that would materialiZe.
The Immigration question bristles
with difficulties he said. but he was
hopeful of an amiable solution because
he had faith in the Intelligence of the
American legislatures. Japan, he
pointed out, had acquiesced in the
American annexation of Hawaii and
the occupation of the Philippines, ac-
cepting the explanation that it was for
the benefit of the people affected.
Similarly he added. America should
recognize Japan's good intentions II

ANT|-SUFF FRAG|STS
OUTLINE FOUR WAYS
To TEST NEW LAW

WASHINGTON, Sept 5. Four
methods to be used by anti suffragists
to bring about a decision by the su-
preme court before the November cleo
ton on the legality of ratification of
the federal suffrage amendment, were
outlined in a statement issued today
by the American Constitutional league
The anti suffragists, according to
the statement propose first to appeal
pending litigation as to Tennessee's S
return to the Tennessee supreme court
which meets September 20 An attempt
will be made to have the case appealed
or certified from the Tennessee court
to the supreme court.
The second method outlined is to
bring injunction and mandamus pro-
ceedings against election officials TO
keep women from voting and thereby
cause suffragists themselves to help
expedite the case to the highest court.
The third proposal is to have an at
torney general of one of the II states
which have not ratified, refuse women
the vote and carry the case into the
supreme court at once on an original
jurisdiction in the name of a sovereign
state.
should these methods fail, anti-su
fragists. according to the league hope
TO carry to the supreme court the ap-
peal from the district of Columbia su-
preme courts dismissal of an iniunc-
ton to restrain Secretary of State
Colby from proclaiming the suffrage
amendments ratification.

p-a~4:~aI aa1ra of Nations
Not Objectionable to Re-
publican Nominee, Wick
ersham Says
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased WireI


MARION, O., Sept after an ex-
tended conference today with Senator
Harding, George Wickersham, a former
Republican attorney general and an
advocate of the league of nations, is
sued, a statement declaring the Re
publican nominee would not wholly
and finally reject the league" but
would take the lead in revising the
covenant and putting it into practical
operation.
The senator recognizes, Mr.. Wicker
sham added, that the league is so in
terwoven with the fortunes of Europe
that it's unobjectionable features must
be preserved to stabilize European
peace.
From Senator Harding himself there
was no expression on the subject but
it was indicated that In the near fu-
ture he might make a public statement
detailing his precise stand with regard
to acceptance of any portion of the
covenant as it was written
when President Harding, working
in accord with a Republican congress,
takes up the work of placing upon a
firm, just and sure foundation, the
relation of this country to the other
nations of the world, / am confident
that the logic of accomplished fact will
lead to the adoption of the league, so
| modified as to remove all just doubts
ds5 10 It's unuut GlletL on american
rights and interests" said Mr.. Wicker
sham's statement.
Senator Harding has recognized
| this fact in the statement that he has
no expectation whatever of finding 1t
necessary or advisable to negotiate a
separate peace with Germany. The
| first effort of his administration OBJ
viously must be to secure an agree
ment with the parties TO the treaties
of Versailles for its modification so as
to remove the objections of the Amer
| lean government and that accom-
plished, our acceptance of the amended
| treaty will be the natural solution OF
! the international problem.
U. S. May Lead In Revision
mo one VIII dispute Senator Hard
| ing's insistence that the United States
may take the lead in revision, amend
ment, or reconstruction and be able to
count on the cordial cooperation of all
nations concerned"
Senator Harding also refrained from
| discussing the categorical questions
about the league which were addressed
to him by Governor Cox last night in
his Milwaukee speech. The Republic
can nominee said he proposed to main
tain his policy of not engaging in a
debate with his opponent and would
| express his views in his own way as
occasion offered.
Another caller today was Oscar Du-
| rant, editor of L'Italia, a Chicago ItaI-
| ian daily newspaper. He talked with
| the senator about the F'iume question
and said afterward he was satisfied
that Mr.. Harding would accord to
Italian interests the fair and friendly
treatment that has been denied under
| Wilson"
Tomorrow Senator Harding will de-
liver a Labor day address here and on
Tuesday he will leave for Minnesota 70
make his first speech outside Ohio
since his nomination. Plans provide
for a call at Chicago on Major General
Leonard Wood.
1t was said tonight at headquarters
that the senator had no intention of
making any speeches en- route.

HAYS REFUTES COX
CHARGES THAT REP
REPORTS FALS|F|ED

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Wili H. Hays,
chairman of the Republican national
committee, issued a statement today
truthfuIness of his testimony before
the senate committee investigating
campaign contributions. The state
ment said:
According to public reports Cover
nor Cox yesterday made the following
accusation against me personally:
4" I charge that Will H. Hays per-
petrated deliberate falsehood when
he said under oath that there were no
quotas
'In my written statement read TO
the senate committee on August 30,
in Chicago, 1 said:
the treasurer's office, all tentative and
rather as a goal, always high, of
course, for the particular state TO
drive for and changing constantly.
At different periods different
quotas have been suggested by the
treasurers office as tentative goals in
different states and the state COM
mittees themselves have fixed differ
ent quotas. These, as above suggest
ed, are changing constantly and al
ways, of course, were made very much
higher than either necessary or antici-
paIeQ. Inc 13cI is, the quotas meant
little. Furthermore, whatever may
have been suggested by quotas by
overzealous solicitors in their enthusi-
asm in different localities, the fact re-
mains that "A certain amount was be-
lieved necessary, and the budget above
referred to was indicated therefor,
which is $3.079,037.2 for the national
committee. When this amount was
fixed as the buget, that became the
sum fixed for the treasurer to reach
and the purpose became definite. The
fact at all times remains that the
treasurer is driving to collect enough
and no more than enough TO meet the
necessary expenses estimated to be
something in excess of three million
dollars
These are the facts. Let the public
judge as TO the truth or falsity OF
Governor Cox's accusation. 1t has the
same reckless irresponsibility as his
claim~o SIS 900. 900. Further comment
on the reliability of his statements is
unnecessary"

changed. He was a trifle brighter to-
ward noon, but his wife. who spent the
afternoon with him. reported this eve
ming he was again in pain and suffer-
ing from depression. MacSwiney today

Whatever our sentiments toward
the Russians may be, the fact remains
that they have not given proof that
they are able to establish socialism
in their country" said Prof Karl Bal
lod, who has just returned from Russia
I once was of the opinion that soviet
Russia and Germany could support one
another economically, but 7 now have
abandoned this opinion" he told the
German radicals. He was pessimistic
regarding Russia's food resources. The
entire Nolga region, he asserted, would
yield only enough grain for seed"
Professor Ballod urgently advised
against recommending that German
workers settle in Russia.
Industrial production of soviet Rus
sia, he said, has fallen to about one
sixth of its former volume. This he
explained, is due partially to a lack of
raw materials. The sugar industry, he
said, has wholly collapsed while coal
production in the Doretz basin is only
one-sixth of the former yield
Professor Ballod said he believed in
the ldealism of the soviet leaders but
