The Limitation"
of Armaments

Attention is being called by the Ad-
ministration at Washington and by
many true friends of World Peace, to
the probable nature of the next step
toward securing that ideal. This is,
according to President Harding in
recent address, an understanding
among the people within a nation, so
that there will be no civil conflicts; :;
and a policy in international affairs
on the part of every country, that
will insist upon full understanding
of the causes of any international
difficulties, and thus prevent war.
When the world progresses in this
spirit ornaments will grow less and
less.
Made at this time, when the world
is looking forward hopefully to- the
Conference of Nations on the Limita-
ton of Armaments soon to be held at
Washington, this expression by the
President, calls upon the people Of
this nation to face the facts and not
to indulge in fanciful dreams and un-
warranted expectations concerning the
outcome of the Conference. The Con-
ference is for the purpose of arriving
at an understanding and agreement
upon the vexatious problems of the
Pacific and the Far East. 1t is there
fore an effort to take the "next step"
toward World Peace. If the problems

Unemployment to be
Practically Considered

Herbert Hoover, in addition to di-
recting Russian relief, in an unofficial
capacity so far as the government is
concerned has been at work on his Of
fetal job as Secretary of Commerce
and has about finished a reorganiza-
tion of the Bureau of Foreign and
Domestic Commerce. By the greater
service which the reorganization will
enable the Bureau to render business
and trade are expected to have con-
siderable impetus.
Meanwhile the Secretary is busy
with the final plans for the national
conference on unemployment called
by President Harding. Mr.. Hoover
is especially interested in the meas
ures of relief which have been sug-
gested by employers throughout the
country and by Governors of States,
and city officials. These will form a
definite part of the program for dis
cussion. Both President Harding and
Secretary Hoover are greatly pleased
with the response from those invited
to take part in the Presidents plan
for practical and thorough attack
upon the unemployment problem that
will lead to great improvement and
relief before winter sets in.
congressman, remaining in Wash
ington during the recess, speak very
strongly in favor OF action by Con-
gress as soon as it reconvenes, to au-
thorize such public works including
buildings, roads, river and harbor i'm
provement as will take care of the un-
employment situation in the various
parts of the country. Various resolu-
tions and bills to speed up an investi-
cation of the needs and the shaping

zap Problem Likely
to be Settled

One Of the Pacific problems which
Japan was very unwilling to have on
the program for the International
Conference, November II, was that
involving the settlement of the cable
dispute with the United States, aris-
ing out of Japan's claim to control of
lines touching Yap. The question is
of interest to other nations beside the
United States, because as cable sta
tion Yap is important to all nations
using the Pacific. After Japan re-
ceived mandate over the island at
the close of the World War, she pro-
posed to remove this station without
consideration of those nations which
had become dependent upon it. The
protest made by this country has been
a matter of diplomatic conversations
between Washington and Japan for
months.
The latest news of the progress of
these negotiations which has become
public, seems to indicate that an
agreement, satisfactory to the United
States will be reached before Novem-
ber II. Just what the conditions will
be is not revealed, but a confusion
would hardly be satisfactory which
did not give the United States control
of the cable between Yap and the is
land of Guam, and also settle the
status of the cable between Yap,
Japan and other far eastern points.
Reports from Toxic indicate that
Japan is inclined to agree to the cable
rights claimed by the United States
if this country will recognize the
japanese mandate over Yap. AS the
United States was not party to the
after war settlement by which the
rest of the allies agreed to the man.
date, and later raised an objection as
one of the parties most concerned,
the question of the legality of this
settlement has therefore been raised.
Agreement by this country now would
establish without jeopardy, Japan's
much desired mandate.

Gold and Silver Pour
Into this Country

So far in 1921, 100000 in gold
has come into the United States.
Some of it is in gold ore and bullion,
some in foreign coin, and about $685.
100000 of the total amount in our
own gold coin. The gold aries in
kegs, cases, and bags and is consigned
to various banks as well as the U. S.
Treasury.
Large shipments of silver from
Germany have increased the interest
in that metal. Most of this is arriv-
ing in bullion ready to be made into
coin. The total shipments Of silver
by Germany during this year amount
to something less than $5,0OO,000.

What the Senate Is Doing
With the Tax Bill

While Congress is having recess
until September 21, the Finance Com
mittee Of the Senate at Washington
is working daily to have revenue
measure in shape to present to the
Senate on the day it reconvenes.
Whether this measure will be re-
vised draft of the bill passed by the
House or an entirely new measure is
a question raised in the dispatches
from Washington. The controversy
involves both the amount to be raised
and the methods of raising it.
1t will be remembered that the
House Ways and Means Committee,
in making an effort at economy, cut
about $500,000 from the final es-
innate of Secretary of the Treasury
Mellon covering the next fiscal years
expenditures. Members of the Sem
ate Finance Committee, having gone
over all the available data, seem to
regard such cut as impossible if the
expenses of the government are to be
squarely met without piling up def
cits. Treasury experts have been con-
ferring with the committee, and Sec
retary Mellon will sit with the COM
mittee today in an effort to arrive at
final and exact information regard
ing the lowest amount that can safely
be set to cover the total expense of
running the government.
AS to the form of the Senate reve-
nue. and taxation bill, there seems to
be decisive sentiment for rewriting
all the internal revenue measures of
the government into one instrument
with the necessary divisions and Sec
tions, and so clarified and simplified
that the average citizen can readily
grasp all the federal revenue-raising
provisions and taSations methods
that apply to him. This would change
the form but not necessarily the con-
tent of the measure which came from
the House as a series of amendments
to present revenue laws.
Another movement within the COM
mittee, headed by Senator Reed
Smoot of Utah, is to scrap the House
bill and write a new one based upon
an entirely new plan of revenue and
taxation. Senator Smoot would
abolish all special taxes and raise the
country's needed amount of revenue
by a modified income tax, estate
taxes, tobacco taxes, corporation in
come tax, and especially a sales tax
on all manufactured articles, to be
paid by the manufacturer and not by
the retailers and jobbers. Such a
sales tax, it is estimated, would raise
more than one-third of the total
amount Of federal revenue and would
be of comparatively small burden,
and easy to pay and collect.
There seems to be a growing recog-
milton of the practical and effective
nature of such tax. It was dis
cussed and studied by many interests
all over the country previous to the
drafting by the House at Washington
of the measure which was finally
adopted without sales tax provision.
The decision against including it was
governed by the belief that the time
was too short to overcome popular
prejudice against new form of tax,
and because of the opposition of the
farmers. Unless Senator Smoot in
sists upon presenting minority
measure to the Senate for decision on
this matter, the Finance Committee
will probably follow the action Of the
House Committee in regard to the
sales tax, and consideration Of it will
be left to future Congress.

They put a heavy paddock on the
front gate of the embassy and called
out the police reserves, but his ludship
did not try to force an entrance. In
fact, he was quite dignified and decent
about it. In the meantime Lloyd
George was busy. He fastened to
Buckingham palace and showed the
message to the king Then he hurried
TO the commons and delivered a
scathing speech which removed most
of the cuticle from Lord Northcllffe.

How does His Ludship Northcl1ffe

And then the tight little isle busted

BY WALT MASON

I'm strong for things uplifting; I'd
see it drifting into a punker groove;
l like to see men striving to gain the
heights ahead, but few will stand for
driving, though many may be led.
And nowadays reforming is driving III
disguise; we see reformers swarming
with fury in their eyes. When wear
led by my labors, and jaded in my
soul, | like to join my neighbors in
games of crokinole. And though these
games be sinful, as moralists declare.
they soothe, when I've a skin full OF
trouble, grief and care. And If re-
formers sought me, with gentle dance
and song. if patiently they taught me
wherein the games are wrong; and if
| heard them saying their protests
calm and meek, no doubt I'd quit my
playing, and other pastimes seek. But
no, they rant like thunder, and make
their noisy raid, and rend the boaro
asunder on which the game is played.
They break the grape juice bottles
and spoil my priced cheroots. and
maudlin anger notifies the maps of
these galoots. They talk of jails and
letters, and statutes they invoke, and
thus annoy their betters, and make
their cause joke. And if they'd
meet me kindly, and say to me, "Old

them sane and able, I'd listen with re-

Is his unconcern about the political future of some
officials, the reason why they tried to GUST him
Or is it the result of the resentment of

mo nan-nade instrument, no grand-tongued
organ, no throbbing violincello, no sweet-whis-
pering violin, ever succeeds in rivalling that
greatest, most wonderful gift of God to man

ITO the people of his day he is great deal
more than star tenor an operate mouthpiece
he is the sweetest expression of sublime gift.
The figure disappears and the voice remains, to
swell the invisible auditoriums of time on earth,
while life lasts.
For how much that was eccentricity, for
how much that was harmless pose, for how much
that was the superfluity inseperable, it seems,
from popular idol, he may be forgotten For
that golden voice, soaring, melting, shooting its
arrows of deathless song into the hearts of his
hearers forever, so that the sweet barb never
may be plucked forth-how can he be forgotten?

Crocodiles Driue French
Veterans Out of Pool
tBy Associated PressJ


VERSAILLES, Aug. 5-The beauti-
full marble swimming pool created by
Louis XIV between the Trianon Pal
ace and the Neptune Basin SO that
the pages of the King might enjoy a
dip on hot days is now used by pri-
vate soldiers stationed in the barracks
near by.
During one recent torrid spell about
so buck privates were recuperating
in the pool from two hours drill in
the morning before the noon day meal.
Suddenly, with a terrified shrek, a
soldier sprang out of the baths:
"Crocodiles, Lieutenant, there are
crocodiles in the pool"
Put blanket around this man and
take him to the guardhouse. He is
crazy with the heat" said the Lieu
tenant
Then with a concerted rush which
equalled anything ever shown against
the Germans. the other 40 bathers
leaped out "Crocodiles, crocodiles.
they shrieked.
The lieutenant, a veteran of many
battles, looked closer at the water and
there with jaws set and eyes staring
at him, surely enough were six large
crocodiles. The lieutenant's face
blanches and he wondered whether he
too had become affected by the heat
or, perhaps, the red wine. Just then
two men bearing an instrument which
resembled a machine gun on high
stills came along: Don't hurt oul
crocodiles," they begged the lieuten
ant. They're harmless and We need
them in our film"
