RULE NUMBER ONE

In any disarmament conference in
which the United States participates,
Rule Number One must be that whatever
agreements may be reached as to size,
additions or substractions, the navy of
the United States shall be second to no
other in the world. That must be the Sin
reducible minimum" with which we en-
ter the conference and with which we
come out. With Europe on our Atlantic
side and Japan on our Pacific side, no
other rule will be acceptable.

ORIENTAL OUTLOOK BETTER

The trade slump that has throttled the
orient ever since the end of the war is
coming to close. Slowly yet positively,
reaction is beginning and it now APP
pears that before the end of the present
year the business and financial improve
ments, as effecting the entire far east.
will be manifest in increased orders and
gradual betterlnent in the tonnage pro-
blem of the ships operating across the
Pacific.
This was the conclusion reached July
2ath by the Daily Commercial News of
San Francisco, after interviewing scores
Of representatives Of banks, commercial
firms and manufacturers, who arrived
from the Orient on the Pacific Mail liner
Golden State" For the first time in
many months, the experts Of trade, who
come here by every ship, exhibited bit
of optimism; practically all agreeing that
the lengthy wave of depression was now
receding.
A most encouraging feature noted in
China, is that money is becoming easier
and there is now being started what
promises to become a rapid development
of many new industries, according to
Robert Buchan, manager Of the Asia
Banking, Corporation at Shanghai. He
added:
"The new mint Of the Chinese govern
ment at Shanghai, which will be ready
for operation soon under the manage
ment of Dr. Hewitt, formerly of the
Philadelphia mint, will, we all believe,
greatly assist in istabilizing the Chinese
currency situation. There is now insuffi-
cient Mexican or silver money in circula-
ton to meet the requirements. The new
mint will require tremendous amount
of silver, and this will naturally be big
factor in creating normal and staple
price for the white metal
"That the Chinese expect better conGi-
tons may be Judged from the fact that
they are exhibiting little concern regard
ing the sale of merchandise They ale
playing waiting game and as result
the cost of goods is even now beginning
to be noted. look for vast change
within the next six months. However,
the entire situation depends upon the
amount of goods purchased in China by
America and Europe. Europe is at this
time better representated as purchaser
than the United States, but recently
more Americans are appearing with the
intent to purchase" ~~
Foreign trade in the future will be the
outlet for the growth of American indus
tries. ss.EN"t.TH@akrf :. 81

CHARITY sCRIMPED AND ICED

Why should the offer of food to Russia
be conditioned on the release of Ameri-
can prisoners legally or illegally incarcer-
ated by the soviet government? II ille-
gally there, do we not place ourselves in
the position of purchasing right which
is already ours? If legally there If
man can be legally imprisoned by gov
eminent that repudiates all law what
right have we to purchase his release,
Such an offer, smacks something of that
surrender policy with which we thought
we had done when the Administrations
changed. If we are to succor starving
Russians let not the charity be condition
al. If Americans are illegally imprisoned,
let us apply little of the "Pericardis
;tlive-or- Raisuli-dead" principle and re-
assert our Americanism. g

"The temporary difficulty of bringing

Late crops, Which Have Been
BountifuI.
Picking. - Most of the Chinese
famine sufferers are assured against
starvation by the ample stocks Of
grain on hand at points reached by
railway.
The entire district affected is now
within reach of relief stations, to which
grain Is being supplied as fast as 1t
can be transported into the interior
by cart and man-power.
Notwithstanding the widespread des-
titute area, there have been compare
lively Jew deaths from starvation, ow-
ing to the measures taken by relief
workers.
The number of persons affected by
the famine has been variously estimaf-
ed at from 100000 to 21,000,0OO, the
latter being the number given by the
United International committee.
1t is conceded, however, that the first
estimates were exaggerated, owing to
the lack of accurate census and the
spotty character of the famine, which
now affects neighboring towns with diff
ferent degrees of severity, due to Inn
provement brought about by late crops.
The crucial period, according to in
vestigators on the ground, will come In
the spring, when the people, weakened
by privation, will have to take up
work on lands that are now mortgaged
and without farm animals. The win
ter wheat crop, however, has been gen.
orally excellent. There have been no
epidemics except the usual occasiona!
cases Of typhus.
Funds in sight for relief work
amount to about $10,0OO,00O, which in
cludes contributions from America es-
timated at $6,O00,O00 According to the
international committee, S7,000,0OO
more will be necessary to take care
Of the famine stricken areas until har-
vest If the work of the relief organi-
cations is also maintained.
The American Red Cross Is chiefly
engaged in roadbuilding, with auxili-
ary relief activities among the labor
ers and their families. Funds supplied
by the American committee for China
famine furd, headed by Thomas w.
Lamont, are distributed among the
various organizations as required.
A Chinese drive for famine relief Is
to be made during the week beginning
February 90 in which effort many for
eigners will take part.

FIGHT OVER PEACE PLAN
Problem Of World Disarmament Rails
ed a Storm, But Was overwheIm-
ingIy Defeated.


Washington.-The National Woman's
party was disbanded IN convention.
A new organization, to continue eff
forts to procure full political and citi-
zenship rights fer women, was author
ICED by the convention.
Dissolution Of the party marked the
end Of the machine created by the suf-
fragists during the fight for the vote.
The convention voted unanimously
to adopt sections 1 and 2 of the ma
jority report submitted by the resolu-
lions committee and instructed the ex-
ecutive committee to terminate all
business Of the organization.
The majority report of the resolu-
ton committee outlined a straight-out
feminist program for the future.
The report, brought in by Mrs. A.
r. Colvin, of st. Paul, the committee
chairman, recommended 1.-THE National
Womans party, having accomplished
the object for which 1t was created,
now disband; that new organization
be created; and that the immediato
work Of the new organization be the
removal of the political disabilities or
women"
The report also urged delegates to
see political freedom should not be lost
Gin any association of nations which
may be established, ard to work for
the absolute equality Of men and wo-
men"
A fight developed ever a proposal to
pledge the organization to work for inn
mediate world disarmament. The sug-
gesttion was embodied in the minority
report from the resolutions commit
tee. Mrs. G. G. Scott presented the
minority report and Mrs. Harriet
Brown, Iowa, opened the debate. She
urged its adoption.
UNLESS you adopt IL and go forward
quickly" she said, 'you have nothing
else but purely feminist programs for
the rest of your lives, for there will
be none but women left on earth. All
Of the world prepares for war with
poison gas, germs, battleships and ar
mics.
"You women who have never borne
q child, who have never lost child,
what do you mean by telling us who
have the question Of disarmament Ia
not a feminist question:"
The proposal was overwhelmingly
defeated.

Herbert Hoover of California, and

With these two places out of the
way only the Scretaryship of the
Navy remains to be filled. To the
Navy appointment Mr.. Harding gave
most of his attention today and it was
indicated that the chances were grow
ing less favorable for all of those who
have been discussed publicly for the
place.
Meantime it became known that all
of the seven cabinet selections prev
lously regarded as virtually. certain
had been finally put into the class of
certainties. Two of these, Charles E..
Hughes of New York, for Secretary of
State and Harry M. Daugherty Of
Ohio, for Attorney General have been
announced by Mr.. Harding himself
The others are Will H. Hays of Indi-
