SILLY TO ARGUE!
OF Course Married Men Are the
NiceSt."
Marjorie Puts II Plainly, Though Per.
haPs There Are Some of Us May
Not Understand.

Married men are nicestT
But are they. really?
Well, l don't know, but I'd like to
think so. Anyhow. I've heard the
phrase trip more than once from pref
ty lips, and there is no doubt that the
speakers were In earnest.
Sometimes it has been varied thus:
"All the incest men are married"
Now, man when he stumbles away
from the altar may feel small and
humble enough; but the fact that he
has squeaked out an II do !" and has
clumsily placed plain gold ring onto
woman's finger does not mean that
he has shed his masculine vanity and
his childish delight in compliments.
Looking at the thing frankly. writes
w. Harold Thomson in the continental
edition of the London Mail, fail to
see how there can be any rule about
it. After all. every married man was
once a bachelor.
But our charming critics don't seem
to think about that They just say
Married men are incest"
It's all very gratifying and very con-
fusing.
l asked Marjorie about it the other
day
Marjorie" l said. you have put
your hair up now and you talk as one
having authority and not as the
scribes. ! want you to tell me why
you say that married men are nicestT
She put her head to one side and
swallowed the second half of what she
thought was liqueur chocolate.
81 don't know" she said. but it's
true. They're kinder than bachelors
and more understanding. They talk
to woman as though they were
neither afraid of her nor-nor con
temptuous OF her. Theyre-sort OF
experienced about us. suppose that's
it."
My child" / said. don't you real
lie that when you marry you will
choose bachelor to be your hus-

Now look here" ! said very pa

If you had lived as long as l and

BRYAN COMMENTS
ON ARMS FARLEY

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-Mili-
tarism will become the vital issue
in the politics of the world powers
if President Harding's conference on
the limitation of armament rails TO
put check on International arma-
ment, William Jennings Bryan said
here today in an interview.
The people of the United States and
the entire world are demanding dis
armament and have high hopes" for
the success Of the conference, the
Commoner declared.
opinion, probably would make mill
tarism one of the main issues in the
next presidential campaign" Mr..
Bryan said. Munitions makers and
others Immediately aftern an unSuc-
cessful conference would raise the
cry that the nation must be made
the most powerful military and naval
force in the world. They would de-
main another armament race. There
would be the issue.
Should the conference fail to
reach an agreement, I believe a pow
erful reaction against the cabinets
in power will set in. The people
will stop spending billions for arma-
ment.
IF the Representatives of the pow
ers here for the conference will not
agree to limit armament, am IN
clined to favor appealing to the peo-
pies of these countries to choose
cabinets that will favor such a
step"
The veteran Democratic politician
differing from the apparent view of
the administration, believes an I'M
successful conference will be a big
Setback to the Republican party
He stated emphatically that the
questions involved are so great that
they demand united support of both
political parties and the entire coun-
try. 1t was clear that he will ad-
wise Democratic leaders to take such
a course and use every means to
force other nations to sign an agree
ment.
powerful forces are at work to
defeat the work of the conference
here and abroad, and these must be
exposed to the public" Bryan added.
81 do not wish to hamper the con-
ference in any way, but do not like
some recent developments which L
do not care to mention now"
The former secretary of state said
he would be here during the confer
ence, but not in any official or adj
sorry capacity.

MINERS PROTEST
HIRING Of DEPUTIES

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-The sys-
tenn by which coal operators in the
West Virginia fields pay the salaries
Of deputy sheriffs was held to be the
principal cause of complaint from
the miners and to be largely respon-
sible for the recent mine disorders in
statements made last night to the
senate Investigating committee in
Charleston by Attorney General Eng
land and made public on return today
of the committee to Washington.
Called in to give the committee his
views, the attorney general declared
that while the laws specifically pro-
hibits such employment it provides
no penalty and consequently was
ignored.
The opinion was expressed by the
attorney general that the miners in
starting a march to Logan sought to
intimidate the authorities in calling
a special session of the Legislature to
amend the statute against which they
complained.
Going deeply into the deputy sheriff
system, the committee found that the
deputies were duly commissioned by
court and their salaries raid out of
fund obtained from an assessment
by the operators of ten cents a ton on
all coal taken from the mines.
The attorney general said he knew
it to be fact that deputies were
employed in Logan county to keep
out men seeking to organize unions.
law did not prohibit men entering
the coal regions to urge organiza-
tion by miners SO long as they did
not create disorder.

Soviiets Not Hospitable
To Anarchists Here

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-More
than one hundred Russian anarch-
lists are at liberty in this country
under bonds which are covered by
100000 in liberty bonds deposited
with the secretary of labor, it was
stated today at the department of
labor. On account Of the refusal of
the Russian soviet government to
accept them, it has been impossible
to deport them.
Efforts of this government to in
duce the soviet government to open
it's borders to receive these extrem-
lists, as we'll as to receive about los
insane and other undesirable Rus
slams so far have been futile. A
number of Russians in federal pris-
ons in this country also would be
deported instead of being held to
serve their sentences, if Russia
would open it's borders, and also
of the department of labor had funds
available for this purpose, officials
said. Only 100000 is available for
the balance of the fiscal year, for
use in connection with deportations,
