endum 10 the people, and our system
OF party organizations affords the ma
chinery for applying IT, This must be
what Mr.. Wilson means.
II at the Presidents instance the
platform Of the Democratic party, TO
be adopted next summer at San Fran
cisco, should contain as It's principal
plank or planks a declaration or dec
larations in favor Of internationalism
as against American natiOnalism, In
favor OF allen supergovernment as
against the American Government we
have now, in favor of the subordination
OF American interests 20 the now well
known Wilsonian principles OF ideal
istic and volunteered responsibility for
the world formation; and II the San
Francisco candidate should stand
squarely on that platform and make
his campaign thereupon in a manner
leaving no doubt In any mind that his
election would mean a radical change
in the nations policy and the abandon
ment OF the traditions OF the past oenr
tury and third; and II the San Fran
cisco candidate should be elected on
that understanding, then there would
have been a great and sOlemen refer
endum indeed
In that event Mr.. Wilson for the
first time would be warranted in de-
claring that for his foreign policy, for
his interwOven treaty and covenant, he
had a mandate. For the first time he
could say truthfully 10 the world that
he had instructions from the American
people. For the first time he could go
10 the Senate, his partner in the treaty
making power, and base his demands
Tor such or such action by them upon
4 definitely ascertained decision Of the !
nation. And with the nation behind !
MS policy Of internationalism in It's |
general aspects, he could proceed to |
submit the specific constitutional |
needed to enable him 10 |
make practical application of the new
deallsm, the new freedom, the new |
policies which were TO shape the future
lestinies Of a republic remade accord

sound like the utterance of Ouija we

That must be what President Wilson
means and wants. II is the sort Of ref
esendum The Sun has meant and wanted
when it has sought to show from time
TO time that the questions involved are
too tremendous TO be determined either
by the Executive alone or by the SEN
ate alone, or by the Executive and SEN
ate together, or by any tribunal sho {
of the vote Of the whole country. 10 is
the referendum we have had In view
when we have said that before this in
terwoven treaty and covenant gets a
strangle hold on the nation the cove
nant Of the League of Nations should
be referred TO the people OF the United
States themselvs TO decide what they
want done with It. A Presidential cleo
ton, with an unambiguous platform
and a square and sincere acceptance Of
the issue by the candidate Of the Presi-
dents PAL ty, affords the great and sol
emn opportunity which Mr.. Wilson in
vokes.
In contrast with such a great and
solemn referendum in open daylight
how picayune seem the manoeuverings
for artful evasions in the text OF the.
articles; for small and deceptive verbal
changes made overnight to satisfy this
statesman or that; for a second COM
promise; and then, perhaps, for fur
ther compromise upon compromise, and
so on and innnitum like the diminish

Currency Scientists
 Are Baffled by German Problems

Berlin, Aug. 23.-All the currency theorists in the world would be un- able to give 2 definite, positive an- swer to the question when an im- provement might be expected in Germany's huge paper circulation, Director Won Glasenapp, of the Reichsbank has told The Associated Press correspondent. The bank statement showed that the paper in circulation July 15 totalled 53,847,- 000,OOO marks. This was a decline of 198, 8,000,0 ,000marks as compared wit hthe previous week.
 "We shall certainly do all in ou1 power to prevent further undue in- flation of currency" he said. "As for Germany, there are only two ways and none other will avail They are expressable in two words work and thrift. Increased produc- tion will benefit both exchange and exportation. From that and a nation. wide return to frugal habits alone Is an improvement in the pape, money situation expectable."

Chinese officials accepted the advice of these medical men and placarded Chengtu with instructions for pre- Ventive measures. Dr. Morse's mes sage stated.
 We are here where plague and epidemic and pestilences begin. Were Asiatic cholera entering San Francisco the American nation would spend millions gladly to stop it, but here, for hundreds or thousands, we can kill the trouble before it can raise it's head away from home. We are doing what we can with an inadequate force and little money, but We are putting our schools and pupils to a very real test and we'll win outl"
 Secretary Lipphard stated that as result of the Baptist New World Movement it is hoped to enlarge the medical school and hospital at Cheng- tu and also to send approximately | 85 missionaries to the several mis- sions in China during the next four years.

-,,o,,e Autumn Coloring ood Richness is Keynote
 In Fall Gowns and Hats

One loves at the moment of seeing these suits their fine qualities and perfect tailoring.
 This shop is featuring trimmings for hats, and here may be found the new tinsel feathers; flowers cover ed in cob-web silver, ostrich swirls and willow tassells. A most unusual hat was shown in this new copper shade of velvet, with crown of copper tinsel and ostrich trim.
 An all-feather turban of peacock blue was very smart, and tam of embroidered duvetyn, in pekin blue was very girlish and effective.
 I noted a picture hat in brown velvet, with henna ribbon embroid- cry and swirled in uncurled ostrich.
 Footwear that the well-groomed woman instinctively turns to for the ultimate expression of correct fash ion, is shown in this shop. Brown still leads, and we find different shades of brown, and for the brown pump are the copper-colored buckles which blend so beautifully with the soft suede or satin pumps.
 "The merchants are doing every thing in their power to bring down the prices," said William Rosenz- weig of the Good Luck store, yes terday. "By buying carefully and not over stocking the manufacturers will come down on prices, and that is what we are doing"

Municipal Legal
 Aid Bureaus Need
 Throughout U. s

St. Louis, Aug. 2S.-There is de mand in all the great cities of the 1 United States for the establishment of municipal legal aid bureaus, Err nest l.. Tustin, of Philadelphia told the American Bar Association at it's annual convention here today. Mir. Tustin is director of public works in Philadelphia He said the purpose of such bureau or department would, be to enable the poor to ob- tain justice and the foreigner to be relieved from imposition, to estab- fish place where the weak, helpless and ignorant would have wrongs righted.
 .The development of virile legal aid association within our great municipalities is a question of vital concern to every patriotic citizen, declared Mir. Tustin. "The need has become imperative and it's creation and cayeful development should be undertaken by all of our large cities.
 "In the past our best authorities have agreed that social injustice is responsible for the creation of more radical enemies to our government than any other cause.
 "The mayor of one of our largest cities, who has had great experience, has stated within few weeks that trifling misunderstanding concern ing municipal and social injustice is responsible for 90 per cent. of the extreme radcalism in the country
 Immigration in the future will come largely from Eastern European countries and the opportunity for imposition and unlawful practices will be much increased.
 Despite the excellent arguments advanced we believe that legal aid should be made municipal function, rather than connected with the ad- ministration of our courts. The ten dency in many communities to im- pose extra judicial duties upon our judges has not only resulted in n distinct lowering of the judicial dignity, but also in many cases has interfered with the ability of our impartial decisions upon legal ques- tions.
 "The duty of the municipality, on the other hand, to conduct legal aid bureau is just as much a civic duty as cleaning streets and provid- ing water. A bureau to investigate and defend impositions upon the poor and the ignorant and to furnish proper and rational defense for men, women and children without means is just as much an obligation as to fill the office of District At torney for the prosecution of crimes, or to provide City Solicitor to en- force health mandates and building restrictions"

Some Live Notes
 of Activities in the Literary World

MT. Hugh Chisholm, editor of the Encyclopedia Britannica since 1904. IS now at work preparing new vol umes to be added to the present elev- enth edition. He has large staff at work, both in London and New York. The editor estimates that almos, 70 per cent of the new matter will be devoted to questions concerning the war. He states that every subject needing new treatment will be brought absolutely up to date. Avia- ton, automobiles and moving pie lures will receive thorough and in teresting treatment. The supple- ment will consist of three volumes, each of the same amount of mat ter as the volumes now in use. These three, with the existing twenty-nine of the eleventh edition, will consti- tute the twelfth edition. It will pro- vide for the needs of the English speaking people during many years to come.
 It IS interesting to note that this classic of accurate information has existed since 1768.
 The editor and his assistant have found among the official classes of the countries recently at war, hostile as we'll as allied, the greatest read mess to supply information and to open the way to perusal of valuable documents, they declare. The vol umes are expected to be ready for delivery to the public next year.
 Among the books of unusual inter- est scheduled for publication in Sep tember is "The Americanization of Edward Bok," which is the autobiog- raphy of Edward Box, the famous ed itor of the Ladies' Home Journal MT. Box came to this country as a poor boy from Holland. He has told his extraordinary story delightfully."- and his pages are crowded with hitherto untold intimate stories of Emerson, Longfellow, Kipling, Stew enson, General Grant, Kate Green way, Rosa Bonheur, President Cleve- land, Woodrow Wilson, Roosevelt in fact, it would be hard to find biography so full of personal stories of the most brilliant and interesting people of the day.

He foresaw, however, that it would be many years before this Of flee would be generally adopted and said that until this was done, duties of the office should be performed hy a municipal aid bureau.
 Local Bar Associations should take on the burden of cultivating public sentiment so as to prevent the legal aid bureaus from becoming tainted with political partisanship ant should appoint a committee to advise and cooperate with the legal aid bureaus. Such bureau. he said had been authorized in Philadelphia

The three affable strangers came to town and winking slyly whispered that they had some of the good old whiskey, which was once sold over the bars. They made friends very quickly.
 The fortunate few who were to be permitted to procure part of the precious liquid gathered about three miles outside of town where the strangers had the barrels hidden. They tapped the kegs and the whisky was good. The cash was paid. Then the Salinans returned to town with their purchase, They prepared
