WOMEN ASK HARDING
TO SUPPORT LEAGUE
MRS. MOORE, PRESIDENT OF MA
TIONAL COUNCIL OF WOMEN,
STATES REASONS.

! New York-That the women o1
America owe to the women of the
rest of the world their confirming
vote on the League of Nations is the
opinion of Mrs. Philip North Moore
President of the Delegation Of the
National Council of Women. She is
now in Christina, Sweden, for the in
ternational women's conference in
session there at which twenty-six ma.
tions are represented. A resolution
was adopted last March pledging the
support of the American women to
the League and it will be presented
to the conference.
1T has twice been the unanimous
decision of our council" said Mrs
Moore, in a recent interview cabled to
theNew York Times, "that we must
have the League of Nations, either
as signed at Versailles, or modified by
reservations that protect our consti-
tutional rights And now Senator
Harding has declared definitely
against the League.
"Unless he modifies that attitude
and declares himself. ready to accept
the League principle, it will be i'm
possible for 10000 women represent
ed in the national council, pledged as
they are to the League, to support
him."
He will have to alter his stand if
he wishes to secure the women's vote,
and before taking their decision which
candidate to support all American
women will have to watch carefully
their attitude on this most vital Of all
questions"
"There are no sufficient reasons"
she continued, sswhy the present cove
nant should not be adopted with res
ervations making the position of
America clear, and there are a great
many reasons why other countries
would not agree to dispense with the
covenant in order to accept Mr.. Hard
lng's new league.
The peace structure has been built
with too much patient care to permit
it's being readily torn down to make
way for some entirely new edifice
which has as yet nobody's complete
Members of the delegation have,
while enroute to Christina made a
minute and complete study of opinion
with regard to league matters, in the
countries through which they have
passed. Before their return to Amer
ca they will draft formal report
If these studies, and on that report |
hey believe, will be based the decis- |
ons of thousands of women not al
.eady affiliated with any political
,ody.

American delegation, but is also
President of the National Council, has

WHEAT PRICES FIRM
MUCH GRAIN SOLD
FARMERS UNION HAS IRE.
CEIVED 10000 BUSHELS OF
WHEAT AND 10000 PEAS.

Wheat prices have recovered her
from the slump of last Tuesday ant
club wheat is again quoted at $2.2I
per bushel at local warehouses, will
corresponding prices for the othel
grades. Much grain is being sold. A
the Farmers Union warehouses anC
elevator it is stated that about SO pei
cent of the wheat brought to towr
has been sold and farmers are gener-
ally willing to let go of their holdings
at $2.25, but not for less.
The Farmers Union Elevator anC
Warehouse has already received TO-
900 bushels of wheat, 10000 bushels
of peas and a small quantity of oats
and barley, but the amount of oats
and barley raised in this vicinity this
year is small.
Club wheat is quoted at $2.25 per
sbushel. Oats are quoted at $255 per
are quoted at 21a to cents a pound,
with no market and no one buying,
except an occasional sale of a small
lot for hog feed. So far there has
been no market for peas and no in
quiries form abroad The peas crop
in this section is the largest in the
history of the county. but dealers
have been unable to find a market for
the peas.
II look Tor market to open up
soon" said George Sievers, secretary
and manager of the Farmers Union
Warehouse and store. "Peas make the
finest kind of hog feed and are good
for fattening cattle and sheep and
make good horse feed when ground
and mixed with oats. There should
be demand for them at feed prices
and look for the opening of market
soon"
E. j. Armbuster, extensive farmer
and stockman, who raises peas ex-
tensively and feeds cattle and hogs on
his farms in various parts of Latah
county, said: ssPeas- are worth four
cents pound for hog feed with pork
at present prices and there will be a
market for all the peas raised in the
northwest. They are too valuable for
feed to not find ready market at
price that will yield profit to the
producer"
The Farmers Union warehouses
and elevator are fast filling up with
grain. Shipments are being made as
fast as cars can be secured and load
ed, but receipts are far greater daily
than shipments. Following a rain,
when threshing is stopped, the rush
of grain to the warehouses and ele-
vators is such that it is difficult to
find men to handle it, but when the
weather is good and threshing is go
ing on, the receipts are not so heavy.

MOSCOW HORSE MAN
WANTS COUNTY FAIR
&C. w. BROWN ABLY SECONDS
STATEMENTS OF J. E. PAPI-
NEAU ON SUBJECTS.

The statement of J. F. Papineau
who came here last year from Mime
sofa and bought a farm near Moscow
where he expects to engage in raising
purebred cattel and hogs, in which
he condemned Moscow for not having
. county fair, struck popular chord
in the hearts of livestock men of this
and neighborng counties. In the
A6ighborhood of Genesee are many
Purebred animals that would be
shown here had there been fair
with a livestock show in connection
We have had many comments on Mr..
Papineau's statement and these were
all favorable to fair and condemna-
tory of the action in not having fair
this fall.
c. W. Brown, we'll known horse
man of Moscow, has written the fol
lowing self-explanatory communica-
ton on the subject:
Dear Editor-Being one of the
pioneers In the purebred livestock in
~dustry and one of the promoters of
the Latah county fair grounds which
we have with grand county to pro-
sduce everything to make good coun-
ty fair, l feel justified as my brother
breeders and importers of purebred
to some place where the business men
and bankers and capitalists take some
interest at least, in helping the live
stock industry, that is SO very i'm
portant in these times of high prices
for feed and labor.
II am in receipt Of reports in the
Breeders Gazette of the attendance
at the Iowa state fair, 100000 last
week. Also the Wisconsin state fair,
with an attendance of 100000 and
the Ohio state fair, with an attend
ance of $4,000. These fairs are an
asset to their states and are taken
hold of and supported by the busi-
ness men and are promoted along
lines that tend to improve every OK
hibitor and not for selfish motive,
the all mighty dollar.
"A large number of business men
and farmers put money into our
county fair grounds and helped to or
ganize the fair association and be-
cause of the penurous selfishness of
few we all lost our stock in the
grounds and buildings. And, worse
yet, our good county has gone on rec
ord as q back number throughout the
Inland Empire.

Britons Rejoice
Over Ted Rays
Golf Victory
Find Solace for Recent De-
cisive Defeats at Hands
of u. S. Tennis Players
By rank Getty
Special Cable TO The Tribune

Copyright, 1920. New York Tribune Inc.
LONDON, Aug. 15.-English sports
men are rejoicing to-day over the un-
expected victory of Ted" Ray, the
Oxhey professional in the United States
open golf championship at Toledo. In
the triumph of Ray, with Harry Yardon
tying for second honors, England finds
some solace for the recent decisive de-
feats at the hands of American tennis
players, as we'll as for the defeat Of
Vardon and Ray by Francis Ouimet in
1913-something this country has never
forgotten.
This makes but the third victory,
two being Vardons successes in 1900
and H. H. Hilton's capture Of the
amateur title. Ray won the open cham
pionship of Great Britain in 1912, but
since that time his golf in this country
has been characterized by terrific
drives, with consequent loss of accu-
racy. Often in championship play he
has been known to overdrive into un-
thinkable rough places, getting Fights
on an otherwise perfect card and
thereby sacrificing the championship.
Ray is known here as sharing with
Massey the title of the most cheerful
professional golfer. A few years ago
some professional presented the Oxhey
favorite with an extraordinary club
with a piece of iron bolted into the
face, and With this club Ray performed
prodigies in hitting.

Barnes Shows
Brilliant Golf
At FlOss1rlOOr
Tall Player, Paired With
Tweedie, Has Best Ball
of 90; Split First Prize
By Ray Mccarthy

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 15.--As side
snow to the main event this week over
the course Of the Flossmoor Country
Club, the national professional golf
championship tournament an amateur
professional tourney was held to-day
With twenty-six pairs competing The
list included all of the stars who will
play for the pro title and dozen or
more prominent amateur players of
this section.
Despite the fact the pros were shoot
ing mostly to get line on the course
some wonderful scores were turned in
Long jim Barnes and his partner, DAN
lei Tweedie, one of Flossmoor's best,
and big Bob Macdonald, of the Bob
o, Link Club, paired with William
Weber, of this city, led the field home.
Each team had best ball of 68 and as
a result split the first prize Of $500.
Jim Changes His Mind
Barnes had not intended to compete
in this meet. We accompanied the St.
Louisan to the scene Of battle, and
going out he stated his trip was merely
golfed," he said, "and am going to
rest up for the tournament"
But when he reached the clubhouse
Jim couldn't resist the temptation of
entering the combat-what golfer can?
and, shedding his coat, he took his
clubs and went forth to do battle. He
was the last one off. However, the big
fellow soon fell into his stride, and
proceeded TO give the large gallery that
trailed after him wonderful exhibit
ton Of golf shooting.
Barnes kept pace with the others on
the outward trip, but it wasn't until
the turn was reached that he hit his
game. Then he simply ran wild.
Brides followed in rapid succession,
and the return trip of 33 strokes, with
the exception of the seventeenth, was
Barnes's best ball
The tall ore was fortunate in hav-
ing a player of Tweedies calber, for
his remarkable play on the last four
holes going out clipped two strokes
from par and aided materially in land
ing the prize.
The best ball card of this pair was as

Thirty Tennis
Teams to Seek
Doubles Title
All Sections Represented
at Longwood; Johnston
and Griffin to Try Again

NEWPORT, p. l., Aug. 15.-The
scene shifts tomorrow from the Casino
courts to the turf OF the Longwood
Cricket Club, at Chestnut Hill, just
outside OF Boston, where the national
doubles lawn tennis championship be-
gins. Thirty teams, representing all
sections of the country, will take the
courts in the struggles that are 20 de-
eide who shall succeed Norman Brookes
and Gerald Patterson, Of Australia, as
the next holders of the title
Brookes and his partner will not &C.
fend at Longwood, although when they
left this country last fall Brookes told
me it was his ambition to return and
compete again against Americas best.
But in spite of the sbsence OF the Esen
from the Antipodes, the field that will
gather for the fray will De a mighty
one.
William N. Johnston and Clarence J.
Griffin, holders of the doubles crowns
on two previous occasions, are due to
make a notable bid to regain their title,
the most serious contenders. Defeated
at Newport by Richard Harre and Nor
cis Williams in the final round on Fri
day, Johnston and Griffin were so near
~ on a level Of playing efficiency with
the Fasteners that the result OF that
match should not be regarded as in
dicative Of future meetings between the
two pairs.
Johnston had played Willis Davis a
round of the singles and Griffia had
been carried to four sets by Roland
Roberts, on the morning of their meet
ing with Harte and Williams on Friday,
so that it is highly probable the keen
edge had been taken from their speed
and staying power in the afternoon
struggle.
The title would seem to lie between
these two teams, however. and they are
so closely linked in ability that the
issue must remain in doubt until the
tourney at Longwood is finished, tax
ing it for granted that the luck of the
draw should throw them together.
Davis and Roberts, Washburn and
Mathey, Man and Mahan, Hall and
Beekman, Voshe!l and Alexander and
four or five other strong teams may
work an upset before the final round
match is played. but I do not look for
the winners outside Of the two teams I
first named
From Longwood the players will make
the far journey TO the Meadow Club,
Of Southampton, where the final great
testing tournament Of the season gets
under way on Monday, August 90
This event usually allows the contend
ers for. the singles title to work the
last rough edges of their strokes and
achieve just the proper physical condi-
ton that will carry them through the
stress Of play al Forest Hills.
The Meadow Club has always been
fortunate in attracting a representative
entry of the country's greatest stars,
and it is probable that we shall see
some OF the most stirring matches Of
the year on the splendid turf courts by
/ the sea.
