Steel Mills May Cut Wages.

PITTSBURGH. July 16.-Announce-
ment last week by the Steel Cor
poration that it has discontinued
the overtime payment. on the prin-
ciple of the eight-hour basic day,
has not quieted the rumors that
there Is to be a general wage reduc-
tion in the near future. which would
means a reduction from the 37-cent
rate for common labor now paid by
the Steel Corporation and by a few
OF the independents. The reduction
would probably be to 30 cents a
rate that many in the steel industry
have predicted would eventually
rule. This would compare with 4?
cents just before the war and 13
cents in 1898 when. roughly speak
ing, wages in the steel industry

NO maintain seven colleges for women
in the Far East by American support.
and especially by having each Of these
oriental colleges adopted by an Amer
lean women's college is now under
way A good deal OF money has a.
ready been raised. and drives IN al
parts OF the country are planned TOT
this winter. A Washington drive was
recently held under the patronage OF
women of high position In ofhcial
society.
This plan represents an attempt on
the part OF western women to carry
the movement for education ana equa'
rights for women into that part OF the
world where masculine domination is
most complete. In the Orient higher
education for women was thing un-
heard OF until few years ago In
addition to their seclusion. an almost
hopeless handicap to higher education
for the women of India, anG China Is
found in the early marriage customs
| of these countries. In India 10 per
cent of the girls become mothers by
| the time they have reached 10 years
of age. and 80 per cent Of them are
mothers under 10 years of age. 1t is
to be remembered too. that this Is In
a country where high caste women
cannot be treated by male physicians
and where women doctors are almost
unknown outside of mission stations.
What the East Indian women have
suffered in consequence need not be
dwelt upon here. nor Is 1t surprising
under these conditions that but l per
| cent of India's $4,000 900 women can
read.
CHINESE WOMEN ILL1TERATE
In China moro than 20 per cent OF
the women are illiterate. In Japan
conditions are brighter, but unlike the
men who go from the middle school
to college and often from college 10
university, tho Japanese girls educa.
or even earlier. This IL not surprising
when 1t is recalled that the Japanese
government supports g Institutions
of learning of university grade for
men students and but one institution
Of college gradc for all the girls OF
Japan.
Until recent years the small schools
maintained by church mission boards
were the only educational provision
which WAS made for the girls Of the
Orient. They began about 50 years
ago. at about the time vassar College
was started, and at that time the
boards were weak and Insignificant
organizations themselves. While tho
results OF the schools established by
the mission boards have been encour-
a ging In the extreme, yet the indivtd-
ual boards were never able financially
medical schools. They had not the
money to equip nor to run them. Tho
mission boards realized the folly of
trying to run poor sectarian schools.
when by uniting their efforts they
might establish strong union Christian
colleges and give the girls of the
Orient the same educational advan-
tages the American girls enjoy. Ac-
cordingly the leading church boards OF
England. America. and Canada united.

Turnulty Was Wrong

In one of his recent articles on the official life OF
Woodrow Wilson president, Joseph P. Tumulty had
the following to say about Charles J. Hughes and his
''Mr. Hughes campagned like lawyer, Mr.. Wilson
like statesman. Mr.. Hughes hunting small game
with birdshot; Mr.. Wilson trained heavy artillery on
the enemies central position The essential difference
between the and the operations of their minds
made clear in the campaign. No one would wish
to minimize the unusual abilities of Mr.. Hughes, but
they are the abilities of an adroit lawyer He makes
points He pleases those minds which like cleverness
and fnesse. He deals with international affairs like
astute lawyer drawing brief. But has he ever
quckened the nations pulse stirred its heart by
single utterancef Did he make any one feel that
behind the formalities of law civil International he
detected the heartbeats of humanity whom law is
posedy designed to serve7 Mr. Wilson not thinking
of Mr. Hughes but perhaps he was thinking Of the type
of which Mr.. Hughes is eminent example when he
said in Paris, This is not to be lawyers peace"
OF course this criticism of Mr. Hughes written
before Mr.. Hughes presented his disarmament program
before the conference in session in Washington
Viewed from the present standpoint, wonder how
Mr.. Tumulty would size up Mr.. Hughes il he had the
privilege of rewriting that chapter.
tMr. Hughes hunting small game with birdshot;
Mr. Wilson trained heavy artillery the enemies
trail position" is one Of Mr. Tumulty's expressions.
When one views the that is following Mr..
Hughes efforts Washington and remembers the failure
that followed Mr.. Wilson's efforts in Paris it is impos
sbe to avoid the conclusion that Mr. Hughes does not
use bird shot He used something bigger when he
brought down eight great nations with one discharge
of his weapon.
