: Williams presented a carefully pre-
pared association plan, which. no
said, was favorably regarded by a
number of prominent Americans.
| During the day Senator Harding
also talked with VIII A. Pears OF
| Des Moines, Iowa, about the move
ment for exchange of scholarships

the United States. Afterward Mr..
Pears said the plan had the presi-
dent elects hearty approval.

Iiarding's Address.
In his address here "onIgrt, Sem
ator Harding said
! In my address to women voters
last October first, spoke Of my
desire that there 81 all be created
in our government department
of public welfare. 1t is with some
satisfaction that I am now able TO
say to you that since the election
have had an opportunity to dis
cuss that proposal with a number
of leaders of Pberal public thought
in and out of congress, with refer
ence to crystalizing 1t into legisla
| tive accomplishment, and have
] found them eager to help in the
constructive task.
/ Its accomplishment will tardily
place our government on some-
| thing like al equal footing, in rec
ognition of this set of problems,
with governments which have long
maintained ministries of education
represented I'm their cabinets. While
my own ideal envisages a broader
scope for the new department, Civ
! ing it concern with many other
phases of human welfare, 1t Is in
teresting to know that it's crea-
+, tion will for the first time place
the great work on a phase of dig
Unity comparable to that given 1t In
many other countries.
Opportunity for Service.
Whether we may esteem 1t wise
or unwise. the modern mother must
realize that society disposes more
and more to take from control
the training, the intellectual direc-
ton and the spiritual guidance of
her children. We may well plead
with the mothers to make the most,
for good, of the lessened oppor-
tunity they possess for moulding
the lives and minds of their child
rem. Through such cooperative eff
fort as this. 1t seems to me, there
is opportunity for a great service.
Herein Is possessed the opportun-
ity to lift up the poorer and the
less fortunate to a higher level.

On Action To Suppress

Geneva, Dec. Is (by The
Associated Press. - China
today took rank among the
principal powers directing
the affairs of the world
through it's entry into the
council of the league of ma
ton in succession to Greece.
The election of China had
been discounted largel y
since the assembly previous
ly had adopted the recon-
mendatien of the committee
on organization that another
elective member be allotted
to Asia.
1t was doubtful up to the last
moment, however, whether the
members who foF the last few days
had been advocating Slav or Scan
dinavian representation would not
succeed with their argument that
the Asiatic races could not expect
two places on the council while
two special European countries
We're not represented at all.
The majority of the delegates,
however, held to their implied
promise, but the success of China
was due largely to the personal
strength DR.. Wellington Koo, of
the Chinese delegation, has ac-
quired in the assembly.
The delegates appeared to be
less interested in the election Of
new states to the league and fol-
lowed the recommendation of the
committee on admission of new
states, which 1t had long been
known as foregone conclusion
they would approve.

dertaken to influence the shipping
board and had succeeded in getting
one of the members elected to the
administrative board which Mr.
Denman said he had attempted to
organize in New York to function
with the shipping board.
The members of the British mis-

he said, was Sir Connop Guthrie,
Mr. Denman told the committee
that he did not know how Sir
Connop was elected-that 1t hap

had learned that three or four
members of the British mission
were present.
Afterwards the shipping board
had a warm session." he continued.
"It lasted twenty minutes and all
that had been transacted at the
previous session was wiped out"
The witness intimated that his
insistence that the board be Kept
free from British influence had
more to do with his resignation as
chairman than anything else" He
testified that while he wanted
British cooperation he did not
want Great Britain to influence the
board.
