LIBERTY IN CHURCH

LONDON. April 12.-Afany church
dignitaries are alarmed at women's
demands for a larger share i'm church
services.
At the convocation of York held
recently this fear was voiced by the
Bishop of Durham, who said they
would not be content with "A career
in holy orders which limited their
sphere to the functions of deacons.
Though the bishop did not say So,
he may have had a vision OF women
aspiring TO be bishops.
BY the decision Of the upper house
Of the convocatIon of Canterbury
women are only to be allowed 90

JUST FOLKS
THE LUCKLEss FISHERMAN.
By EDGAR A. GUEST


They laughed when 1 came home
last night
And said ! didn't get a bite.
They snickered an they 5oked at me,
And all the fellows asked 70 see
The ones I'd caught. Ohio said
they.
Hes been out fishing al this day
An hasn't caught "a single thing
He never got fish to string.
They laughed al me. but all their
jeers
Travelled no further than my ears
Twas true I'd fished all day without
Sharing a single speckled trout.
But what OF that? I'd had a day
That I could loaf and dream away.
I'd chummed with birds and friendly
trees
And been as care-free as the breeze.
I'd rested wheresoe'er I'd willed.
To me the hum OF trade was stilled.
I'd let my thoughts go wandering far
To where lies happier glories are;
ia whistle like a boy once more,
And even stretch full length on
shore
To watch the white clouds sail the
blue,
The very way I used 10 do.
They laughed when I came home at
night
And said I didn't get a bite.
They seemed TO think my luck was
bad.
They couldn't guess the fun I'd had
And couldn't know that ali that day
I'd been a free man, blithe and gay.
And though of fish I'd landed none
I'd caught the joys for which I'd
gone.

POWERS AGREE ON
POSTAL MATTERS
FoRETGN POST OFFICE TO BE
WlTHWRAWN ACCORDING TO
ANNOUNCEMENT
Committee on Far Eastern Policies
Decide Foreign Postoffiee Shall
Be Withdrawn from China
BY January I, 1923.

Washington.--A resolution declaring
Cor REIMBURSEMENT Of foreign postofflce
privileges In China was adopted Mon
day by the nine powers sitting as n
committee on Pacific and Far Eastern
questions.
The date of January !, 1923, was
set for the abandonment OF foreign
pOstoffices, and this was agreed TO by
all the powers represented except Jap
an. whose representatives asked for
dime 10 hear from their government.
The japanese delegates, 1t was said,
did not object to January ], 1923, as
che dnte for abandoning their postof-
Gces. but felt that they did not have
che authority to agree to that date
without referring the matter to Toxic,
The nine powers committee deferred
final action until later on the ques-
ton OF extra territorial rights in China.
The principle of closing foreign courts
IN China. Il was said, was agreed to,
but consideration of the formal resolu-
tion went over.
Chinese representatives ut Mondays
meeting brought up the domestic con-
troll of Chinese railways. The ques.
ti0n, however went over for consldera-
tiOn at another meeting of the nine
powers Tuesday.
The Chinese railway question, ac.
eording to Chinese Representatives
would necessarily involve the matter OF
Shantung which is regarded as one
of the big problems with which the
Washington conference may have tc
concerned.

Singers Honor Caruso

New York--The Metropolitan Opera
company paid memorial tribute to
EnrlcO Caruso Sunday. The audience,
mindful of the purpose for which 1t
was gathered, remained silent through
out the ceremony. There was no ap-
plause for singers like Gnili-Curcs,
Martinelli, Farrar and other members
of the company. The proceeds OF the
memorial concert. swelled by indlvidu-
nj contributions from the artists, will,
when converted into Italian money,
amount to some 100000 lire, and the
entire sum will be given 10 the Verdi
Home for Aged Musicians ut Milan,
Italy. The ceremony devolved about
the presentation of a bronze bust of
Cnruso to the Metropolitan Apera COM
pany by the singers widow, who oc-
cupled box l. The presentation ad-
dress was made in Mrs. Caruso's name
by Fiorello ii. Laguardia, president OF
the board OF aldermen. Otto III. Kahn
chairman of the board of directors OF
the metropolitan, accepted the bust
the work of Onorio Ruotolo.

NAVAL QUESTION
BEFORE FARLEY
JAPAN REPORTED READY TO MOD.
IFY DEMANDS FOR INCREASE
OF SHIP TONNAGE
'nslstent Stand for Increase in Capital
Ship Tonnage for cosidcration
In Full Meeting
Of Powers

Misunderstanding has decided to
recede partly from her hitherto insist
ent stand that she be allowed an in
crease of ten per cent in capital ship
tonnage under the general program
plan for Limitation of naval armament.
This was learned on highest author
ity as the naval armament committee
of the arms conference met 10 dis
cuss this situation. Admiral Baron
kato, minister OF the japanese navy,
Is expected to announce the japanese
decision at the meeting Wednesday.
The entire question of Japan's in
sistence on an increased ratio in
capital ships will be thrown into the
arms conference for settlement.
The naval experts of the United
States and Japan have reached a
deadlock on Jnpan's demands for an
increase Of ten per cent In capital
ship tonnage over that allowed in the
Hughes proposal, and the question
will he taken up in the meeting of the
committee on Limitation of armament.
This meeting probably may be a
featuring point In the history of tie
conference.
Despite the fact that naval experts
are at loggerheads, 1t Is officially be-
lieved that a sentiment will be reached
on the Jananese CLAIMS TO tonnage
of 40 per cent rs great as that of the
United States and Great Britain.
A settlement rests in the hands OF
Secretary of State Hughes, Admiral
Baron, Kato and Arthur J. Balfour,
the heads of the American, japanese
and British delegations and 1t is be-
lieved that the authoritative prediction
that an agreement will be reached is
based on tentive understandings reach
ed In recent informal conferences be
tween these three leaders.
| The situation is believed to be that
Secretary Hughes is tired of the dis
cusson of the naval experts and their
failure to agree. and has decided to
take the matter in his own hands again
to force the question to a settlement.
