MRS. EDWARDS
SAYS SHE WAS
MTSTNTERPRETED
GiUeS Real Facts of Tilt With
COHgTeSSUOBldH Re
Gently.

Mrs. Richard Edwards, Peru. who Is
in indianapolis TO attend the Amendment
conference and anniversary celebration OF
the League Of Women Voters held yester-
day in discussing Informally the recent
agitation concerning the statement made
by Mss Alice Robertson. Congressman
from Oklahoma. that women were not
capable OF serving in the forthcoming dis
armament conference, said today:
L have been much amused at the inter
probation put upon my statement as to
whether Miss Robertson was a rep7esen-
tative woman or not. The real facts Of
the incident are these. A New York pa
per wired me Of Miss Robertson's objec-
ton to a woman On the commission and
asked me how much weight I put on her
opinion 1 replied None whatever be
cause I did not consider her either by eX-
perience. training. habits or mind at all
representative OF the womans point Of
View"
Mrs. Edwards was one Of the delegates
from the League Of Women Voters who
called on President Harding to urge the
appointment Of a woman 70 the American
delegation 10 the conference She ex-
pressed herself as having the highest
opinion concerning the ability of the
American women in diplomatic. political
or economic affairs OF the country. The
fact that Miss Robertson expressed such
contempt for the intelligence Of the
American woman and yet had made such
a strong plea for the backing of the
feminine voters appeared to Mrs. Edwards
as rather incongruous

KILLING MARKS
EFFORT TO DIG
UP MILITARISM
Assassination of El'zberger
Shows Plan to Revive Ger
man Royalty.

BERLIN, Aug. 27.-The assassination
of Matthias Erzberger, former chancellor
and minister of finance near Offenburg,
Baden. marks a crisis in the increasing
royalist and militarist activities in Ger
many, 1t was admitted today.
1t is believed that the militarist and
monarchist revival was responsible for
the murder of Erzberger, who was a
bulwark of repubHcanism and orderly OBJ
servance of the treaty Of Versailles.
NEWSPAPERS
CONDEMN MURDER.
Both royalist and republican news
papers condemned the murder in their
comment.
Chancellor Wirth has telegraphed his
condolences and those Of the cabinet to
Frau Erzberger, who accompanied her
husband when he went to Baden to visit
his mother.
Royalist and militarist activities have
been more marked this week than at
any other time since the armistce. Prince
Eitel Frederick and General LudendorH
reviewed the German world war veterans
in a great military display in this city
and the ex-kaiser sent messages show
ing sympathy for the demonstration. 1t
is understood that militarist revivals
have been planned throughout all Ger
many.
Army officers are again appearing in
the streets in full uniform and decora-
tions and the old military spirit is show
ing itself IN other ways.
PRECAUTIONS
FOR FUNERAL.
The government will take precautions
to prevent outbreaks when the funeral
is held.
Additional details from Gutenberg show
that Erzberger was walking along high
way in the Black Forest when attacked
by two youths After the shooting be-
gan Erzberger jumped behind a hedge.
The ASSISTANTS walked of some distance
where they watched tC make sure that
their victim was dead. The body was dis
covered Immediately afterwards, rlddled
with bullets.

Severe Winter Is

NEW YORK, Aug. H-That next
winter will be a cold one is the indica
tiOn OF weather data compiled by Or e.
F. Brooks, formerly meteorologist OF the
Federal weather bureau. and now asso-
ciare professor Of meteorOlogy and eli
matOlOgy at Clark University.
An analysis Of the weather records OF
over a century indicates that we are ex
periencing a series OF alterations of Sc
we're and warm winters. Last fall. on the
basis Of his investigation, Dr. Brooks said
that last winter would be warm. 1t was.
And now he says that It is not unreason-
able TO expect that next winter will be a
cold one and that the winter OF 1872 %

Harding Feels Germany
Should Not Be Handi-

KEEPS OUT OF TANGLE
Special to Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
BY ROBERT BARRY.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Withdrawal
Of American troops from Germany as
soon as practicable after the formal proc
lamation Of peace is contemplated by the
Harding Administration. That policy is
grounded on the desire Of the Govern
ment not to continue the burden Of the
occupation on Germany.
A formal proclamation of peace by the
President does not have to await the
ratification OF the treaty, nor is it true, as
contended by opponents Of the Knox
peace resolution, that the Administration
is enjoined permanently from issuance of
the proclamation because of legal diff
culties encountered by the Attorney Gen
eral. 1t would seem likely, however that
no precipitate action along that line VIII
be taken by the President
The Administration view of the time the
troops are to remain in Germany is that
the treaty will not alter the situation. As
on the general .uestion Of American
rights and interests as a victor in the war,
IL is felt, adequate safeguard and full au-
th0rity TO act are embOdies in the Knox
resolution. The date for the withdrawal
Of the II 900 troops hinges on policy, not
power.
Through a coincidence the Administra-
ton arrived at a policy which seemed to
offer direct refutation to a line of attack
on the German treaty said to be in con
temptation by two or three Senators who
were bent on finding something to crlti-
size san the covenant

DON'T WANT TO
MIX IN Ell ROPE.

The sentiment Of the President and the
Cabinet was said TO have been In opposl-
ton to any such course for America. The
question Of feeding. clothing and doctor
ing children and invalids in Russia, it
was decided. should be kept squarely
within the bounds OF humanitarian en-
deavor. This Government is strongly
averse TO having the problem cmbroiled
in European politics. There was no
White House comment on that phase Of
the Cabinet discussion, but it was learned
that Secretary Hughes. with the appro-
val Of Mr. Hoover, as chairman OF the
American relief administration, would re-
quest Walter Lyman Brown to proceed
TO Paris TO ascertain informally the plan
and purposes Of the conference. There IS
good reason to believe Afr. Brown viii &C
quaint France and other Interested pow
ers with the desire and the determination
Of the United States to keep the relief
work clear Of political issues.
The steadfastness Of purpose on the
part Of the President and Mr.. Hughes
with respect 10 the constantly recurring
Invitations from Europe for American
membership on the various sorts OF politi-
cal commissions is regarded as indicated
by the policy in the matter Of Russia.
The incident assumes importance as an
effective response to the alarmists on
capitol hill.
In keeping with Public Ledger dis
patches bearing on the German treaty.
it became known that President Harding
is more than pleased with the manner in
which his Observation-Disclosures specific
ally the State Department-has untaugled
the foreign Affairs Of the Nation from
the plight in which they were placed
through failure Of the treaty of Yer

WANTED SOMETHING.
TO KICK ABOUT.

Those men who determined long ago
to challenge every foreign policy Of the
Administration, especially to the views
Of Charles Z. Hughes, as Secretary Of
State. undertook to ind evil in the treaty
They combed the phrases OF the instru-
ment with the fine teeth of their preju-
dices and laid an accusing finger on the
provision that the United States is en-
titled TO participate in the reparati0ns
commission and other commissions set up
under the treaty of Versailles, but is not
bound to participate In any such commits
sions unless it elects to do so"
That. they said. would give to Secretary
Hughes the authority he has been seek
ing since he entered the Department Of
State II would permit him, they argued,
to involve the United States in all man
uer Of administrative squabbles in Europe
and make this country party to the en-
forcement OF the treaty Of Versailles with
out our being a party TO it.
The fears of those extremists took for
granted that Mr.. Hughes wants TO DO
something he studiously avoided doing
on any and every occasion. II so hap
pened the Cabinet al its meeting Friday
discussed that identical question. Herbert
Hoover and Secretary Hughes talked at
some length over the problems OF rus
sian relief. The Cabinet had before It
virtual request from European powers for
an international conference to discuss
Russia and the proposed relief measures
