PRESIDENTS ADDRESS

Mr.. Secretary of War and Ladies
and Gentlemen We are met today to
pay the impersonal tribute. The name
of him whose body lies before us took
flight with his imperishable soul. We
know not whence he came, but only
that his death marks him with the
everlasting glory of an American dy-
ing for his country.
He might have come from any one
of millions of American homes. Some
mother gave him in her love and
tenderness. and with him her most
cherished hopes. Hundreds of moth
ers are wondering today, finding q
touch Of solace in the possibility that
the Nation bows in grief over the
body of one she bore to live and die,
if need be. for the Republic. II we
give rein to fancy, a score of sympa-
thetic chords are touched, for in this
body there once Glowed the soul of
an American, with the aspirations and
ambitions of a citizen who cherished
life and its opportunities. He may
have been native or an adopted son;
that matters little, because they glori-
fled the same loyalty, they sacrificed
alike.
We do not know his station in life.
because from every station came the
patriotic response Of the five millions.

RESTING IN ARLINGTON

Washington, Nov. 11-(By A. P.)-
Under the wide and starry skies of
his own homeland, Americas Tn
known Dead from France sleeps to-
night, a soldier home from the wars.
Alone he lies in the narrow cell of
live stone that guards his body: but
his soul has entered into the spirit
that is America. Wherever liberty is
held close in mems hearts, the honor
and the glory and the pledge of high
endeavor poured out over this name
less one of fame will be told and sung
by Americans for all time.
Scrolled across the marble arch of
the memorial raised to American
which stands like monument be-
hind his tomb, runs this legend:
lincoIn's Words
"W1r here highly resolve that these
dead shall not have died in vain
The words We're spoken by mar
tyred Lincoln over the dead at Get
tysburg. And today, with voice
strong with determination and ring
ing with deep emotion, another
President echoed that high resolve
over the coffin of the soldier who
died for the flag in France.
Great men in the worlds affairs
heard that high purpose reiterated
by the man who stands at the head
of the American people. Tomorrow
they will gather in the city that
stands almost in the shadow of the
new American shrine of liberty dedi-
Gated today. They will talk of peace;
of the curbing Of the havoc of war.
They will speak of the war in France
that robbed this soldier of life and
name and brought death to COM
rades Of all nations by the hundreds
of thousands. And in their ears
when they meet must ring President
Harding's declaration today beside
that flagwrapped, honor-laden bier:
The Presidents Words
There must be, there shall be, the

ilization against armed warfare"

HEARST ASKS
 HALT ON LOANS
Prays For Injunction Against Secretary HoustOn-Treasury
 Official Must Show Cauce why He Should Not Be Restrained

Washington, Feb. 11.-An order was issued by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia today direct ing Secretary of the Treasury David P. Houston to show cause on Feb. 21 why he should not be restrained from allowing further credits to foreign governments from the treasury of the United States
 The rule also directs Secretary Houston to show why he should not be restrained from permitting pay ment of any moneys to Boris Bakh- metietf, so-called Russian ambassa- dor, or to "any person representing or pretending to represent" the defunct Kerensky government of Russia
 The rule was handed down by Jus tice William Hitz in response to suit filed by William Randolph Hearst as a citizen and taxpayer.
 In his bill of complaint Mr. Hearst sets out that the statute authOrlZlng loans to foreign governments provides that such loans shall be made only to governments engaged at the time of establishing such credits in war with the enemies of the United States"
 At the present time, the plaintiff ayers, the secretary of the treasury is about to make credits aggregating $129, ,701, ,63338 for the use and bene- fit of five countries not now at war with enemies of the United States.
 These credits are being made, the bill asserts, for the unlawful pur- pose of rendering peace time support

The local girlies are "mopping up" as they go and 1t is now a case of who's next to go down under the onslaughts of the Prescottetts. The win over the Red detts, which meant defeating a team with two years unbroken string of victories, put our girls on speaking acquaintance with the state champion ship which they are going after with vim and vengeance.
 The local girls individually fit in their positions as if built for them, which with the splendid initiative, a talent all their own, they are hard ones to conquer. They play together with wonderful results-as smooth as an easy-running college machine, un- der the coaching of high salaried instructor.

Berlin, Feb. 11.-The ministry of finance has reached the conclusion that the utmost sum Germany can pay in separations is l50,000, ,000,OOO marks, this including all she had so far paid in cash and goods, according to information which the Deutsch Zeitung says it has received from a Special source.
 This 150,000,000,000 marks would be paid off in 30 years under the plan outlined by the newspapers infor- mant, who also declares the proposal would be submitted to the authorities at Paris to determine whether the coming London conference will permit of its consideration.
 Refusal to grant consideration would result in Germany absenting herself from the London conference, set for March 1, the newspaper de- clares it has learned
 It adds that Germany then will sug gest that the United States be called in as an arbitrator for the purpose of preventing the entente from adopting measures such as an invasion of the Ruhr district, which it declares would be looked upon by Germany as an act of war which would positively destroy the treaty of Versailles.
 The suggestion that the United States be invited to mediate fails to arouse enthusiasm in the conservative industrialist organ, Die Post, which expresses fear that the American yer dict in such case would be more likely to incline toward the sum the entente is demanding.
 American mediation would only be welcome" says this newspaper, If we could ascertain the American atti- tu edin advance. We do not want to repeat the mistakes of 191S."
