A TIP FOR HARDING
FROM WILL ROGERS
lrrepressible Comedian Has
Non-RefiIlabIe Idea for
Arms Conference.
BY WILL ROGERS,
Motion Picture star.
Kitten Especially for Universal Service.

Written Especially for Universal Service.
i got a scheme to really stop wars.
not just get together and talk about It.
The guy who laid out the location Of
all these nations was coo-coo.
II l live next door to a man and
can't get along without fighting, l will
move. Now that's my scheme. II
wouldn't cost anything but the trans
portation OF changing places.
Now separate France and Germany.
France trades places With Japan. Let
Japan live by Germany. They are
both war-like. and then II they wanted
to fight each other nobody in the
world would care. The present Japan
Is great grape country.
Let England 60 to Canada or Aus.
tralia and live off her sons-in-law.
That would also solve the Irish
question for Lloyd George. Put Ulster
where England In now. Let Ireland
keep all of Ireland till they become
tired OF 1t. which would be perhaps six
or eight months.
That would give US a chance to get
rid OF Mexico: Trade 1t for Turkey
harems and all.
Leave the Scots where they are, as
they wouldn't want to pay railroad
fare.
That's the only way in the world
they will ever stop war. Every time
they threaten to fight, move 'em.
Now this is only a rough idea Of
mine. l haven't gone into 1t tech
nicaliy. But II Mr.. Harding wants to
call a conference on 1t I would be
only too glad to cooperate. That's, of
course, I'm case this present chau-
tauqua don't function.

ceive any consideration. Nothing with

Foster Woods Plea.

Declaring that he had been Illegally
committed to the District workhouse,
George Luckel. thirty-five years old,

nonsupport, was released by Judge
Hoehling.
Six months ago. Luckel was brought

family. Brought to trial before Judge
Kathryn Sellers, in the Juvenile Court,

workhouse or jail.
Agreeing with the contention, Judge
Hoehling ordered the immediate re-
lease Of the prisoner.
