Gold Star Mothers for League.

Mothers wearing gold stars in mem ory of sons who made the supreme sacrifice during the war are demand ing that the United States enter the League of Nations, according to one of them. Mrs. Mary Virginia Galwey of Cincinnati who has appealed to Senator Pat Harrison. chairman of the speakers bureau of the Democratic national committee, to allow her to speak to the gold star mothers of the country in the interest of the league. Mrs. Galwey lost one son in France.
 When I hear Republican women scoff at the League of Nations" said Mrs. Galway, '1 look for their gold stars. They have none. want the league because l resent other women having torn hearts. We may be braver than men. when it is n matter of physi- cal suffering. but we are just women when 1t is war or peace.
 This Is not politics, this is human ity. Ii is not expediency. it is de- cency. It Is not man-made theory. 1t Is the cry of woman. Surely those parents who cheerfully gave their sons and daughters that Amerlca's glory might be untarnished will insist that the United States enter the league with colors flying"

TIDE OF DISC0NTENT
 IS SWEEPING INDIA
PEOPLE NO LONGER TRUST THEIR RULERS AND SMART UNI
 DER MANY GRIEVANCES.

Caicutta.-India is seething with un- rest. Strikes are breaking out in ev- cry big city and a rising tide of dis content is sweeping over the whole country.
 No one has the slightest idea of what is going to happen Nothing violent may happen, yet British rue unquestionably sits upon keg of gun powder.
 To the Indians there are four great immediate grievances: First. the Row latt sediton act fought by all In dians; second, the failure of the Hun ter commission to satisfy tie Indians regarding the AmritZar affair. when 400 people were killed by General by CT: third, dissatisfaction over the Turkish treaty which is arousIng TO- 000,00 Indians of the M3slem faith; fourth, dissatisfaction over the limi- tatlons of the new Indian reforms.
 Above all is heard the determined cry Of nationalism, yividly expressed in the present non-co-operative move ment" passed at last months session of the Indian ongress, through the inspiration of MIahatama Gandi, the real spiritual leader of young India
 Without going into the pros and cons of the alleged grievances there is no question that they have caught the imagination of the Indians and set that state aire with feeling against England and Engl sh rule. It is doubtful whether anything short of complete self-government would be satisfactory to them.
 Of the S2.oo00o0 people in India, probably so per cent,of them are az ricuItunsts who are cursed by the caste system and live in ignorance and darkness They are too deeply engaged in the desperate economic struggle To exist, to know much ahout,or be particularly concerned with British rule The city masses. however,are flied with class and ra- cial hatred, and being half hungry and oppressed are very bitter Now. all of the sins of the centuries of na. tive oppression fall unfairly on the shoulders of the English.

IMMIGRANTS HEAD
 TOWARD THE WEST
MOST OF THE NEW ARRIVALS GO TO WHERE uNSkilLED LA
 EOR IS EMPLOYED.

New York.-The West is getting a large share of the present immigra- tlon. The new arrivals, the bulk of them, are heading toward the mining field. the steel and iron districts and the factory centers, where much un skilled labor is employed Many re- main in New York, where the clothing lndustr yabsorbs them, eomparat Ne- ly small number make for the textile mills of New England, but most of the tide rolls on toward Pittsburgh and the regions west Large numbers are drifting to Chicago, especially to the Calumet district, which, ever since the steel strike, has experienced q movement of alien labor lack 10 Eu rope. Many have tickets for Denver and other Rocky Mountain points. where for the last 12 months the mi gratory drift has been back to the old country. Many of the immigrants, too are bound still further westward, with tickets for San Francisco, Seattle and Portland
 In one typical group of arrivals in the ticket office at Ellis Island, about loo being in line, thirty were bound for Chicago, ten for Detroit. six for Denver. fifteen for San Francisco Of the remainder, no two had destina tions alike. They ranged from Flori- da 10 Thief River Falls. Minn.. and frof Pittsburgh to Salt Lake and Sac ramento. Officials at the island say the incoming movement is more wide ly dispersed when it leaves New York for the interior than has been usual in many years.
 There is no direction however. so far as employment conditions are con cerned, andthis is one phase to which Congress will devote attention when II takes Hp the problem of immigra ton For instance. one group of six young irshmen had tickets for De. lrolt semi skilled factory hands They had heard the automobile business was douushing and that great short age ot men existed They will reach that labor market at tine when jobs Instead of pen are at a premium.

Eiihu Roots Credentials.

Elihu Root, contrary to the opinion of many, including apparently Sena- tor Harding, is not officially represent ing the United States on the organiza- tion committee of the international court of justice.
 The United States, having been kept out of the league by the Republican senate, Is not entitled to representa- ton on this committee. Mfr. Roots appointment comes solely from the council of the League of Nations. He is netting in an official capacity for the council of the League of Nations to which his own nation does not belong.
 By accepting and acting under this appointment. it would seem that he recognizes the League of Nations as functioning organization.

HARDING IN BAD
 ON TIE LEAGUE
Democratic Leaders Laughing at Predicament of 6. 0. p.
 Nominee.
MAY REPUDIATE WORLD COURT
He Is Dismaycd to Find Elihu RooSs Great Work at the Hague Is Product of the League
 of Nations.

George White, chairman of the Demo- cratic national committee, has issued the following statement:
 "Elihu Root has hurried home, his great work accomplished, to chart d course on foreign affairs for Senator Harding and the Republican party. Mir Root has tackled many tasks, ab- struse. delicate and profound, and his record of achievement is imposing but I don't believe he is equal to this one, If he attempts it.
 "In the first place most of the news papers and speakers supporting Mr. Harding have evidently not read the covenant of the League of Nations. That may account for their mlSrepre- sentations of its provisions. They ap- parently had no idea of the work MT. Root was engaged upon abroad, con ceiving his world court as a substitute for the League of Nations instead of n subsidiary tribunal Now that they. after welcoming the world court. have learned for the first time that 1t is
  league. would be an air castle without q foundation, they are angrily diSput- ing whether or not they shall repudiate the work of Eihu Root.
 What lamentahle state for great party and a party press. and how hu- initiating it is for the American peo- pie to witness the daily exposures by presidential candidate of abysmal ignorance upon the leading issue of the campaignl
 MT. Root was wise to hurry home, indeed; but l think the job is beyond even his learning and ability. Mir Harding stands for separate peace with Germany and then after that some nebulous association of nations that never has. does not and never will exist. Mir. Root. the carpenter of the new world court under the league, will have a hard time joining that out rageous and hypocrtcal program with his performance abroad"
 Democratic campaign leaders are en- toying the unhappy predicament Into which Senator Harding has been thrust
 The Republican presidential nomi- nee. in their opinion, will find some diff ficulty in extracting himself from the position of running with the hare and hunting with the hounds on the League of Nations issue.

The lowering of prices has caused considerable un- easiness and much Encouragement.
 Numbers of reports mention the superior color and quality of the lint this year. 1t being both winter and stronger than for several years past. Many producers also assert that there is a noticeable increase in the length of lint in comparison with the crops of the two previous years. The con stant moisture sunnly this year and the increased use cf fertilizers doubt les shave much to do with the attain ment of these results.
