BY COL. WINFIELD JONES

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-(Special Correspondence) What is the pros
 pect of a new League of Nations when Senator Harding succeeds Woodrow Wilson in the White House? Will the new league, if it materializes, be any, thing like the treaty of Versailles?
 These two questions are now being discussed in the senate and house, not on the floors of these bodies, but in cloakrooms and Hobbies.
 Two facts stand out concerning the proposed new league or rather the dis cussions that are now going on con- corning new league, under what ever name the latest scheme will be called: The first of these is that a tremendous effort is now being made by various interests to revive the league which was slain, and buried beyond all hope of resurrection in the form in which it died, at the time of the last November elections, The second is that there is large and de. termined coterie in the senate that wants and will not have a league of any kind, if they can possibly prevent 1t.
 Former President Taft, assisted by former Secretary of State Root, are the prime movers in the effort to persuade MT. Harding to advocate a new league. Both men have been at Marion and held long conversations with the president-elect. Mir. Taft wants the league because he is d pa. cifist by nature, and because he was the real brains behind the Versailles treaty, as shown by the expose some time ago when it was printed and never denied that Taft was in con- stant cable communication with Pres ident Wilson at Paris and Suggested" to MT. Wilson the principal clauses of the treaty of Versailles. Barring MT. Wilson MT. Taft is the greatest league advocate in the United States. MT. Root runs MT. Taft in a close sec ond for that honor. There are a few senators and representatives who trail along with these chief advocates, but the vast majority of house and senate is known to be opposed to a

league of any kind, no matter under
 what name it may be brought forth
 masquerading in the Harding admin
 istration.
 Soon after MT. Harding enters the White House it is expected that he
 Will summon the ambassadors of the great powers stationed in Washington
 for series of conferences on the pos-
 sibility of a new league. At nresent if
 is said the basis of discussion for any new league will rest on the principal features of the Hague Tribunal ori ginated by the late Czar Nicholas who was slain by the BoIsheviki and some features of the Versailles treaty There is no doubt that many of the nations, and none more so than the United States, long for some sort of international understanding which majority of congress, while favoring this, are determined to never allow the United States to become impo- lent in any international agreement, and they have already decided in the November elections, not to allow one jot or title of the independence of this country to be surrendered to any group of nations, of which this repub. lie would of course be a unit.
 The principal stumbling block in the way of organization of a new league, or an Association of Ma. tions," as named by MT. Root and sug- gested by Mfr. Harding, is the fact that league has proved impotent to prevent the European wars now rag ing and is accused by many of being merely combination of England. France and Italy to hold on to the spoils of war grabbed away from Ger many, but nevertheless this league is set up and is operating in a fash ion.
 Is it likely with the United States out Of the league when the Droposi- tion is put un to the powers that now constitute that league that an "Associ- ation of Nations" he organized these powers can enter such an "Associa- tton" without scrapning the league of which they are already members? The very fact that the league is now in existence forbids the formation of an- other league, though the new organiz- 9tfon may bear another name. This Is the great obstacle to formation of the scheme advocated by Taft and Root, and it is believed by most mem- oers Of congress to be an unsurmount- able obstruction.
 Ihen, too, there are millions of peo- pie in this country who argue along these lines: The United States is the greatest and most powerful nation in the world. It does not want war with any other nation and it will never nrn- i clpltate war. Why, then, should if enter any international arrangement to prevent future wars. It would ba i better to remain isolated. In that nosj. ton it will be able to say, should if so deslFe' to nations contemplating war there must be no war. If it did not "lSn to do that it could keen silent in an Association" it might be forced to fight without a just cause of the
 "li to war. Better far to keep ous or all land every kind of "entanglinp alliances"

PROMISED LAND GIFTS FORGOTTEN; SOLDIERS
 TAKING IT FORCTBI,Y

LONDON, Jan. 27 (by Associated Press) Former soldiers who were promised gifts of land after the war but who have failed to receive it, are forcibly taking it in some of the He brides Islands, off the west coast of Scotland. The dissatisfaction over failure to obtain land appears to be spreading among the islanders.
 On one of the islands the former service men have seized and divided among themselves a 3,00O-acre farm, driven off the stock which was on it and restocked it with their own cat tie, sheep and horses. They blame the British board of agriculture for fail ure to keep the promise to provide them with land.

Weekday Religious Instruction in
Vermont.

The state board of education has
expressed itself as sympathetic to-
ward sharing public school time with
the churches for religious education.
The attorney general of the state has
declared the present laws of Vermont
to be permissive for such cooperation
between the schools and churches. The
local school board has the right to
arrange at the request of parents,
with the superintendent of schools to
excuse pupils to go to the churches
for religious instruction.
That there may be no misunder-
standing, these several points must
be distinctly noted:
1. This scheme involves no viola
ton of the principle of separation of
the church and state, and calls for no
outlay of public money. Teachers
and equipment must be voluntarily
provided by the religious bodies avail
ing themselves of the opportunity
Public school buildings might be used
in cases of necessity in scattered
country neighborhoods. In such cases
there would be perfect equality of OPP
portunity for such use by the several
communions in the locality, and any
expense would be borne by those u.s.
ing them.
2. The plan is permissive only. No
religious teaching would be forced on
any child. Arrangements for religi-
GUS instruction are made only at the
written request or consent of the par
ents.
8. Clearly such opportunities must
be equally open to all who desire to
avail themselves of them, Hebrews,
Roman Catholics, Congregationalists
Baptists, Episcopalians, Methodists,
Unitarians, and others.
a. The qualifications of the teach
ers in the classes in religion must
compare very favorably with those of
teachers of the public school from
which the pupils are taken.
5. The curriculum for the classes
in religious education must be care
fully worked out in advance.
6. This plan demands real effort
on the part of those who desire to
have. share in it. It must not be
hastily entered upon without due pre-
paration of teachers and provision of
resources.
A committee in weekday religious
instruction representing several re-
ligious communions in the state, has
been working over this matter for
some months and is now ready to aid
any community that desires setting
up such school.
This committee has asked the Yer
mont Sunday School Association to
assume field management of this work
and this association has just COM
missioned it's executive secretary to
visit the schools in Rochester, Toledo,
Gary, Van Vert, Oak Park, and
Evanston. He has just returned and
is at the call of those communities
that are ready to consider such a pro-
gram for next fall.

WORLDS CHRISTIAN
ENDEAVOR CONVENTION
In New York City in July With
Indications of the Largest
Ever Held

Christian Endeavor activities in
preparation for the great convention
to be held in New York City, July
Gil, indicate an attendance Of dele
gates far in excess of record-breaking
New York, 1892.
The city of "bigness" in all things,
whether religious or secular, is the
magnet that is drawing the attention
of nationwide and worldwide Chris
tian Endeavor. In every section of
the country today there may be found
New York convention clubs planning
an invasion of the Manhattan, accus-
toned as they are to real big events.
Past events in the history of Chris
tian Endeavor conventions point to
the face that registrations outside of
the home convention city have always
been increasingly large each year, but
if the present indications are criter-
ion, then New York 1921 will prove
the banner pear for delegates from
distance. This, together with the
thousands from New York, will no
doubt prove the largest convention in
the life of a movement that will
never die.

Daugherty in Action.

When EUGENE v. DEBs, Federal
prisoner at the Atlanta Penitentiary,
is able to walk out the front door Of
the jail and, unguarded and unat-
tended, go on journey to the Attor-
General of the United States in
Washington, where he is received
somewhat like distinguished visitor
Of state, the American people get a
shock.
Whether DEBs is to be let out per-
manently or not. he is still a convict
serving his sentence and his proper
place while his term is unserved or
until he Is pardoned is in the peni-
Tertiary under the restraint and care
TO which other convicted prisoners are
subject. DEBs, with his political
power or personal pull cannot any
more than any other jail inmate be
treated by Attorney-G General DAUGH-
ERTY as an exceptional parsonage en-
titled to official favor and distinction
without making mockery Of impair
tial justice, bringing the national law
into contempt and deeply offending
the American sense Of dignity and
propriety.

Imagination and will. EVELYN was
afire to know everything" Alas, how
few have a fiichering desire to snow
anything! The successors of EVELYN
in this day, having his passion for
inquiry, are the men and women who
are measuring the stars, girdling the
earth with spoken words and gradu-
ally revealing to the world the mira
cles Of radioactivity.
The growth Of knowledge has not
swamped the human brain with a
flood too big for 1t TO contain. 1t has
created the specialist. While every
one enjoys or, If he so wish, can
enjoy conspectus of nature eclipsing
in its extent and truth the clearest
vision of even century ago, the
inquiring spirit concentrates Itself on
one line Of investigation. Using the
ever rising vantage point of ascer-
tanned truth as a fulcrum, it drags
all humanity after it further and
further, year by year, into the wide
realm of light.

City Debts.

There are 227 cities Of 10000 popu-
lation and more in the United States
whose balance sheets are examined
by the Federal Census Bureau, and
they owe net debts amounting to
S2,679, ,551, 900, or $TT.s2 head. OF
this aggregate Indebtedness New York
owes two-fifths, or $1,000, 100000.
This is a vast sum Of money, but
1t is the debt Of great. rich city,
which Is constantly growing greater
and richer Some Of the money may
have been wasted, but most of 1t was
put into productive enterprises nee
essary to the public service, or into
parks, boulevards, schoolhouses, Fire
Department and Police Department
stations, bridges. railroads. water
works; scores and hundreds OF essen
tials for civilized urban life.
That New York owes such a large
of the aggregate city debt
Of the nation Is not surprising. 1t
has had to spend more money than
other towns because Its great popu-
lation makes heavy expenditures i'm
possible to avoid.
