CARNIVAL TODAY AT
 RIVERSIDE PARK ID
 HELP DAY NURSERY

The Junior Guild will give one of the outstanding events of the spring season this afternoon and evening in the form of a gigantic carnival at Riverside park. The carnival is made noteworthy by the fact that all the proceeds will go to the Day Nursery building fund.
 Every form of amusement has been included in plans for the carnival. Bridge and a bazaar. including for tune telling, grab-bag, parcel-post and other attractions, will be the chief attractions of the afternoon, while the night will be devoted to dancing, with spot dances, novelty numbers, and a cabaret In the eve ming a cafeteria supper of home cooked food will be served. at re- markedly reasonable price. Those in charge expect to feed at least 800.
 The carnival has been arranged as a pleasant means of contributing to the Day Nursery fund. Not only Will the contributors have the satisfaction of helping a worthy cause, but they will have fun while doing it. Who can resist when told that every penny he or she spends at the park today and tonight will go to make easier the lot of some poor woman and her little children?
 The Day Nursery has been in op- eration about year, and in that time has more than proven its need. The present problem is to purchase a permanent home for it. and the car nival today is expected to do much toward that end.
 The nursery's sole purpose IS to care for little children during the day while their mothers work, and Tn us operations it has been of immeasur- able service to scores of deserving women and contributed to the health and happiness of many little tots.
 The present daily attendance is about | 25. though the average attendance is l5, the number varying with the | number of women who have to work | for the support of their families.

Mailing the Democratic flag to the and calling all hands to the pumps, Charles A. Towne. former United States senator from Minneso- ta, spoke to about 250 members of the Jefferson Society of Arizona at the high school auditorium last eve ming. The occasion was the anniver sary of the birthday of Thomas Jef- ferson, which is also the annual election date of the Jefferson society.
 The speaker began his address with a summary of the conditions which antedated the drawing up of the Dec laration of Independence and the for nation of the American republic.
 All previous revolutions in the his tory of the world" he said, had been for the purpose of achieving some new liberty or of escaping some particular form of tyranny-to obtain a privilege and not to vindi- cate a right. The American revolu- tion was vindication of the entire political rights of man and dedica- ton of this nation to those rights for ever. The charter of American liberties, therefore. can never be re- written - it can only be re-vindi- cated''
 Speaking of the men who were instrumental in the formation of the United States as a political entity, he said:

Harding's Message Does Not Surprise Berlin Government
rRepubllcan A. p. Leased Wirel

BERLIN, April 13.-President Har- ding's utterances on the American foreign policy as gleaned from the brief extracts of his message evoked little surprise and slight approval. His position generally had been dis counted by newspapers and govern ment circles, although his attitude on the league of nations was taken to confirm the opinion that without the participation of the United States the league must be abandoned. Little hope was evident, however, that Mir Harding's desire for a speedy sepa- rate peace would result in any bene- fit to Germany immediately in view of his position on reparations.
 Executive meetings of the cabinet at which it is understood Foreign Minister Simons made satisfactory explanations of his interview on rep arations with a Paris newspaperman, which was criticized in some quar- ters and for the moment hampered the foreign minister's efforts to for- mulate new proposals acceptable to his colleagues for presentation to the allies on or before May l. still are taking up the attention of the of ficials.
