outcome of the French ultimatum
would be need for more British

There he went down to the waters

water was very shallow. All the time
he studied the shore along the edge
of the Laughing Brook.

LONDON. July 20.--Persons arriving

King Feisal is understood to be OPP

 "The Federal Council of Churches will probably set one Sunday as time for ministers throughout the country 10 address their congregations on general conditions affecting women and the Young Women's Christian Association as an instrument of service.
 "The immediate task Is to bring to the people of the United States 8 knowledge of conditions affecting the lives of women in all parts of the world. We can no longer ignore the character, the manner of life and the ideals of other people,, whether we want to or not. A special call is now coming to the Association from China Japan, India and South Amer'ca where work was held back during the war because of the necessity for spe cial activity in France and the United States

SENATOR kENYON'S CONTRAST.
 ING VIEWS.

Just what Is the purpose of the kenyon bill now in hearing at Wash ggton would be hard to deduce from senator Kenyon's own statements. In ae hill itself the purpose is set forth $ foiiows: "To stimulate the pro- 1c5 on, sale, and distribution of live
 X and live stock products, and for 0er purposes" This stimulation of -e stock production may be well
 en as bid to the consumer to hope lower meat prices.
 6ut he has different thought to esent to producers. In a letter ad- essed recently to the Wallace Farm
 he says: T do not believe myself
 the situation as to restricted assumption is going to be changed very much, and there will be the neees- iity of less production" Of course production would supposedly mean gher prices for live stock, but also ligher prices for meat.
 Are either the general public or the farmer going to be fooled by this method of playing up the one against the other? It is not likely. Farmers and consumers are both coming to the aalization that hampering the pack s is net going to bring higher prices
