SENATOR WARNS
ON DEBT ISSUE
MaCKeIIar of Tennessee Tells
Arms Farley to Shun the
Question.
FAR EAST POWDER MAGAZINE
Senate Leader Lodge Says There's
Only One Way to Collect Great
Foreign Debts, by Force-Wat-
son Names Another.

Washington, Nov. 8.-While Senator
Lodge said none can tell when the
United States will get even interest on
the S11 ,000,000,000 war debt owed by
the allies, Senator MacKellar of Ten
nessee was preparing to force the is
sue.
The Southerner proposed an amend
ment to the tax bill providing that S.
000000,000 of the foreign indebted
ness be converted into bonds as com
pensation for veterans.
The most perilous question for the
conference Is the Far Eastern one"
MacKellar said.
Powder Magazine.
THE situation with respect to
China, Siberia, Mongolia, Korea and
other Far-Eastern countries is pow
der magazine, and If not treated with
fairness and justice, may result in an
explosion that will bring on another
world war;
II do not believe the American peO-
pie will ever stand for cancellation
of the billions owed us by foreign
countries, some of which will be rep
resented at the conference.
II sincerely hope those participating
will have foresight enough not to try
to inject what Is purely business
proposition.
IF the conference deals with the
comparatively helpless peoples of the
Far-East countries like China and
Korea In an honest, humane way and
forbids every species of spoilatiOn and
provides for maintenance of their ter
ritorial integrity, the greatest good
win come.
IF the conference undertakes to
confirm the spoilation already accom-
plished and 10 divide up these coun-
tries, then 1t will have been better II
the Far astt"n questions had not
been considered at ALL"
Lodge Gives Views.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,
Republican leader, said in the senate.
I'VE cannot collect these great for
eign credits except by force. and no
body wants to 20 to war over them.
"fo undertake to pay the soldiers
bonus from them Is to wrap the en-
tire question of compensation In an
atmosphere of uncertainty"
Referring to statements that the
United States could collect the money
only by force. Senator Watson said
the United States could tell Great
Britain that unless she paid the debt
her ambassador would be returned
home and the United States would re-
cali its ambassador
Thus he said, would she be re-
qulred to face the shame of the
world"

usually want the cheapest thing you
can find.
A man may delude himself into be-
lieving that when he buys a suit of
clothes from a mail order house for
$40 he is saving money, but what is
there to justify him In such a belief?
The mere fact that he is getting suit
for $40 does not mean that he is saw
ing money. The chances are that if
he should go to the man who runs the
clothing store in his own town and
ask for 1t he could get suit of clothes
for $40 and the chances are also that
1t would be just as good If not bet
ter bargain than the suit which he
could get from the mail order house
for the same sum. 1t is not the price
he pays that shows whether he Is get
ting bargain or not. 1t Is the quail
ity of goods that he gets for his money
that counts.
Can underseIl Mail Order House.
The home merchant can sell as
cheaply as the mail order man If he
sells as cheap goods as the mail order
man sells. His expenses are not as
heavy as those of the mail order man.
He pays less rent in proportion to
the business he does, his taxes are less
in proportion to the capital invested.
His advertising bills are less than
those of the mail order man in proper
ton to the volume of his sales. He
can undersell the mail order man any
day in the year if he wishes to sell
style of those sold by the mail order
man, but he doesn't do this because he
knows that the majority of the people
in his town do not want that quality
and style of goods. Therefore he keeps
in stock goods of all qualities and all
prices. He has the $40 suit for the
man who thinks that he can get more
for his money by buying suit at that
price than he can by buying a better
one for 500, but he tells the customer
just what he is buying.
The next time you think about buy
ing something from mail order house.
If you ever do think of such a thing,
go first to your home merchant and
ask to see the article which you are
thinking of buying.
Ready to Compare Prices.
Your home merchant is a business
man. He gets the best values he can
for his money when he buys goods, and
he does not expect his customers to
do anything else. All that he asks, in
return for the favors he does his Gus
toners and the things he does for the
good of his community is that he be
given an opportunity to meet the in
sidious competition of the mail order
house. He is perfectly willing to have
his n--..ces ana his values compared to
those of the mail order house. but he
has just complaint when he is not
given chance to make this COMPARE
son.
If all buyers would take the value as
well as the price of the article they
are buying into consideration, the mail
order houses would all go cut Of busi-
ness tomorrow.

COLONEL HARvEY'S NEW ROLE

VNHIS country is filed with good Repub
l. licans who will not loudly rejoice or burn
red fire or toll glad bells if President Hard
ing really decides to send Colonel George B.
Mcclellan Harvey as ambassador to the
Court of Great Britain.
The colonel is not ideally fitted for a job
that requires above all things patience,
learning, a guarded tongue and broad human
vision. He has a set of opinions peculiarly
his own and a manner Of speech inspired by
what was saddest in the traditions Of old
school American journalism. Fancy n for
NAL speech by the ambassador of the United
States in London delivered to the elect Of
the empire In the manner of the editorial
articles that made Harvey's Weekly a jour.
nalistic curiosity!
A Democrat who wanted to be and
actually was, until he broke with Mr.. Will
son, a major prophet of his party sailing
away on the most important of all diplomatic
missions as the representative of a Republi-
can administration and the Republican ira
dition would be a spectacle likely to inspire
something more than curiosity in the United
States.
The country will hope that President
Harding may change his mind and find some
one else for a post with which Colonel Har
ivey's name is now being generally associated.
IL the colonel aches to be a diplomatist he
ought to be sent TO Costa Rica or to Bogota
or some place where vehement rhetoric can
do no particular harm.

MRS. r. r. PORTER BRADFORD
On Woman's Voice In Church Affairs

THE church is the loser in refusing to
i grant women representation at the an
nual convention Of the Episcopal Diocese
of Pennsylvania, where they could have a
r. Porter Bradford, welfare worker and
actively interested in the churchwomen' s
and other clubs throughout the city.
''The church faces the grave danger OF
wasting q great power for spiritual good and
alternating from itself and even from Chris;
tianity many able and high minded women,
said Mrs. Bradford.
"These women may turn TO educatlonal
work and to other fields where they have
greater opportunities for careers. we go
into our colleges and urge the young women
to take up a life of religious service, but
when they look into the matter they find
that it means all work and no representa-
ton no voice We are doomed to failure
before we begin.
Compared With Case Of Army Nurses
Take the case Of army nurses as an
illustration of a similar condition. For years
they were allowed to do their noble work;
subjected to disrespect from orderhes ana
others not officially recognized as suoordl-
mates. Only during the last war were theS
given authority A commission enables
them to do infinitely better work because
they have a voice, they are representative.
"Just so, with women in the churches
they have been permitted to do the WORK
for 365 days each year, but cannot be rep
resented at one meeting in that time There
certainly is nothing discussed at the
diocesan convention that is outside the realm
of woman's interest or understanding -.
women possess a great evangelical gift,
and, dare say, many activities would ceaes
if the women would stop work. ChurcheS
are dependent today on the women. =,
Statistics show more combinations OF
women than men, and IL we were to have
proportional representation, we would out
number them. ,.t

ANOTHER HARD-WoN VICTORY

amendment to the constitution, was not
recognized by the members of the state and

no reason why representatives. of the

leaders rather than on the floor of the
Legislature or in the open sessions of the
City Council that state and municipal poll

would be virtually without representation

story told by Bishop Manning might be

"A japanese Christian asked member
OF the Protestant Episcopal Church how
our mission societies are supported and was
told that the children in the Sunday schools
give an offering each year and the women's
auxiliary every three years. Remembering
suddenly the large donation given by the men
recently at the tercentenary, the informant
added that fact.

'Oh, see, your children give each year,
your women every three years and the men

Women should be admitted to those
councils of the church to which laymen are

must understand is the Church of England.
Women have been given the ballot. and
il there is equality in politics, why not in
this sphere?
1T is now generally accepted that the
future must be different from the past.

ity heretofore unknown, and they are going
steadily forward. Where woman does the

Treasury. addressing a local fraternity,

There is less money being spent on luxuries
this year than last, for there is less money

accession of thrift that brought about the
industrial slump. When John Smith quit
buying luxuries Bill Jones, who produced
luxures, had to quit work and could no
longer buy the necessities produced by John

only time the production of luxuries becomes
an economic crime is when labor is being
