F.. WHY NOT LANE ADAMS2

President Harding is said to be seriously con.
sidering the appointment Of a woman as one of
the American delegates to the Washington dis
armament conference
There is every reason why he should do it.
If there is any good argument against it, we
should like to hear it.
Certainly it cannot be said that the women
of America are not as much interested in dis
armament and world peace as are the men.
Neither can it be said that there are not
among the women of America many quite as
capable of taking part in the conference as any
man who has been mentioned as a possible
delegate.
It is not at all unlikely that if the president
would let it be known unofficially that he pro-
posed including woman in the American dele
cation other governments would follow his
lead.
Because of her ability and her increasing and
unselfish efforts in the cause of world peace,
the name of Jane Adams naturally occurs in
this connection.
AS president of the Women's international
Conference she would, in sense, speak for the
women, of the world as well as the women of
America

JUDGE MARTIN LUECK
WILL QUIT BENCH
Well Known Judge Refuses to Be
Bound by Regulations of Supreme
Court of the State.

{ By Associated Press Leased Wire4
Juneau, Wis. Judge Martin L.
Lueck, widely known Democrat and
Judge of the 18th Wisconsin district
circuit court at Juneau Il years will
forward his resignation to Governor
Blaine this week, he has notified C.
A. Christensen, president Of the Dodge
county bar association. His term does
not expire fer two and one-half years.
Before accepting an appointment to
/ the bench, the judge was active in
the state Democratic party and held
numerous political positions in Dodge
county.
The reason assigned for the resigna-
ton is recent decision Of the state
supreme court in which the question
was raised whether relative could
practice before a judge when the at
torney's fee was on contingent basis,
that is, when the fee rested on the de
cision. The court did not decide the
question and since the judge has two
brothers practicing in his court, he
states that he does not wish to run
the risk of having decision in the
issue made on an appeal that may at
some time arise in his court No such
appeal is pending, however, and it is
said that the question never has been
raised in any cases in which his
brothers were concerned,
The judge intends to enter a law firm
in which his brother Arthur is a
partner.

HINDSIGHT POLICY

Auditors are now busy in the Post Office
Department trying to ascertain whether the
parcel post is losing money for the government.
One Of the first acts of the Democratic admin
istration was to slash the parcel post rates with
out waiting to find out by experience what
self-supporting rate would be. The Bourne
parcel post law, a Republican measure, put the
rates high enough to be safe, with the idea Of
cutting them as experience demonstrated to
what extent cuts could safely be made. After
slashing the rates, the Democratic admins.
ton insisted without definite proof that the
rates were adequate Having abolished the
parcel post stamp, specific evid ance as to the
revenue from parcel post was not obtainable

PRETTY SOFT


A caravan Of 100 people is on it's way from
Brooklyn, H. Y, to Idaho, where its members
have bought farms Among the number is a
former Kenosha woman.
They travel in autos and motor trucks, cook
on gasoline stoves ana camp at night in port
able canvas houses.
If you could turn the clock back 100 years,
you'd see pioneers making the same trip west
ward in prairie schooner" wagons drawn by
horses or oxen.
Those early settlers had a rough life while
they were on wheels And it wasn't much bet
ter after they reached their journeys end and
built log cabins.
Suppose one Of these pioneers, with pro
phetic vision, had said to his neighbors: Il
see a caravan travelling west in 1921. It's

a century has changed the mode of living in
our country.
Can your imagination picture the changes
that another century will bring?
Compared with the past, we live in an age of
ease and comfort. And, our nerves on edge as
a result of modern city life, we frequently are
dissatisfied with convenierces that only few
generations ago we're denied kings.
That dissatisfaction is what give men mod
ern conveniences. It's what will bring more
and better ones.
Progress is the child of dissatisfaction
You press a button and electricity floods the
room.
