WHOLE WORLD AWAITS
ACTION BY AMERICA

Washington, D. C.,-There can be
no nOrmality in production until the
world is at peace, declared Bernard
NJ Bauuch, former chairman of the
War Industries Board in 4 letter 10
Senator McNary. chairman Of the
Senate committee investigating con-
ditiOns in the shoe and sugar indus
tries.
Discussing what may be done 10 re-
ducc the high cost Of living. Mr..
BanIch said:
"As II appears TO me now, the only
thing that can be done is to remove
restrictions on manufacturing and dis
tribution, and check Illegal profiteer-
ing wherever il exists, do what we
can 90 stimulate production, try to in
culcate ideas of saving, economy and
plain dressing until the supply has
caught up with the demand and get
the hundreds of thousands of men in
Europe back to W ork."
This cannot be done, in Mr.. Ba-
ruch's opinion, because America is still
technically at war with Germany be-
cause of the refusal OF the senate To
ratify the peace treaty. The hun
dTcds of thousands of men still under
arms in Europe cannot return 10 use
ful production because, in Mr. Ba-
nIch'sh opinion, 'they dare not drop
their arms and return TO poduction
for fear they viii be overrun by their
neighbors."
In his opinion there, will be no peace
until this Iss ended, no return to nor
mality and production, and there will
be no peace until America ratifies the
treaty

CHAIRMAN HAYS KEYNOTE

! New York World
To the Editor of The World: May
suggest that the Republican Party car
| spare itself the trouble and expense OF
a National Convention this year
4 There is no need of keynote speech
/ by Mr.. Lodge or anybody else. The
| keynote has been struck, and by whom
more appropriately than that states
man of unselfish ideals and lofty Wis
Eion. Mr.. VIII Hays, the Chairman OF
the National Committee.
we are more interested in the
stomachs of our people than the hearts
of the world"
Here is gem of purest ray serene.
Here, indeed, is the beautiful adven-
ture, the very spirit of noblesse oblige,
platform and n keynote speech in one
in perfect consonance with Mr..
Lodges utterances. Send it ringing
round the world, the message q the
Republican party to all the suffering
people thereof! Let them know just
what kind Of a party it is that is trying
to "Americanize" the treaty and kill
the League of Nations. Compare it
with the messages of Wilson and judge
it out of its own mouth.
II Is not OFTEN tiidl u party Is 80 fOt
tunate as to have a genius capable OF
crystallizing its whole attitude in one
luminous epigram so early in the cam
paign. Print it every day in large type
at the top of your paper till the people
have learned it by heart 1t is, indeed
the keynote, and should also be the f.
nal note in the death knell of a party
that dares SO to affront world. Kul-
tur at the apex of its madness never
dreamed Of SO insulting mankind This
naive self-revelation Of the inner
workings of his mind places US all un-
der obligations to Mr.. Hays.
1t is completely in accord with Mr.
Lodges "They take US at our own
terms" and Richard Croker's famous
u work for my own pockets all the
time"
1t sounds so much like Abraham
Lincoln and reminds one of that line in
! a deluded soldiers poem, 'eTo you
with failing hands we throw the torch
be yours to bear it high"
In the language of the gutter with
which he seems to have so much in
common, Mr. Hays has indeed "said

The Woman jury.

AhC NO414A jury.
A man who had been arrested for
wife-beating and was out on bail, fled
the country when he found he was
going to be tried by a jury of women.
Evidently he thought that what they
would do to him would be something
with boiling oil in it, and without
doubt his fears were well founded. One
can readily believe that there are GER
tain crimes. such as wife beating, and
desertion, and failure to support, and
SO on, from which women have suf-
fered SO long, in which the culprit
would be given the limit of the law,
and then some, every time, by femi-
nine jury.
Perhaps the woman jury will break
up these misdemeanofs. Surely a
british husband will hardly consider
that the pleasure of hacking his
wife's eye is worth the stiff sentence
in the woTkhouse that a woman jury
has the habit of fading away. from
home when a new baby appears on
the scene and leaving his wife to sup
port the family, will think twice and
then stick to his job. If he knows that
when the long arm of the law hauls
him back, a feminine jury is going to
make warning of him to other hus-
bands with wandering feet. !
Surely the man who was born too
tired to work, and who let's his wife
take in washing to support him, will
decide that 1t is better to get busy
and hand over most of his pay en-
velepe to the "missus'' than to put up
with the punishment that a woman
jury has decided fits the crime OF
loafing. rfr &C..
OF course there are those who have
long prophesied that woman jurors
would be ever-lenient to- men who
were on trial, but this undue elemencF
would never apply to the crimes COM
mitted against the peace and happi-
ness of the heme. The man who sins
without fail when twelve good women
and true pass Judgment on his delin-
quencies.
In all good truth the woman jury Is
one of the greatest blessings we are
going to get from the granting of sur
frage to woman, and it will make for
intelligent justice in a thousand diff
ferent ways.
1t has always been absurd that, I'M
der a system that makes the jury sys-
tenn the palladium of our liberty. and
that guarantees to every accused in
dividual a trial by a jury of his peers.
women have been tried by men juries
exclusively.
For no one will contend that a man
is a woman's peer any more than a
understands a man, nor oan she trace
his mental processes, or divine what
impulses would urge him to certain
courses OF action. Still less can any
man read the workings of a woman's
mind, or fathom her motives, OF guess
which particular way the cat would
Jump on any given occasion.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1920-11-04

One result of the election probably
will be that we shall hear little more
of the League of Nations in this coun-
try. whether Intentionally or not the
people have voted the United states
out of it. Senator Harding made II
plain that he was opposed to TINS

any conditions. Our copy of the cove

difference this course may make 10
the rest of the world it can make little

foundation of this government and we
can continue to do so. Europe needs
lis more than we need it. We have
demonstrated our ability to hoe our
own row.
