Workers Not Given Square Deal In
 Unemployment Conference Reports
ALLIES DEBTS TO UNITED STATES
 MAY BRING ABOUT DISARMAMENT
IF CONGRESS GIVES SECRE- 1ARY MELLON ABSOLUTE POWER OVER DEBTS HE WILL HOLD WHIP HAND

Washington, Oct. 2I.-Upon the ont
 come ot the disarmament conference which begins November II. in Washino- ton, depends the future of the Hardino | administration. With the temper of the people ot the world at such a pitch that 1 imperative demands are being made for
 disarmament, the failure of the Washing
 ton conference will mean that the ad-
 mln1stratlon will have to admit it has
 built its reputation upon false promises
 ana 1n9lor1ouSly seek admission into the
 League ot Nations with its provisions
 TOT disarmament and the abolition of the II, I,ldllu 1acture ot war munitions by other than governmental agencies
 But If the conference IS successful if will mean triumph for the admins
 tratiOn and the practical wrecking of the League ot Nations, as it will bring about league composed of the five allied nations, with the smaller fry on the out side
 hat the administration will make des perate efforts to put the conference
 across IS admitted, and there are some Who see a connection between this de- ter1nnatlon and the request by President Harding that congress give Secretary of the treasury Mellon carte blanche to do as he pleases with the Allies debts to America. Mir. Harding's request is let Mr. Mellon be permitted to handle the debt m his own way and not be respon- S1bie to congress or the country for his action.
 Ii congress comedies this power to one man, Mir. Mellon can then force England Trance and Italy to agree to whatever proposals Washington may make, and i m return Mir, Mellon can give these na- 1 tionS receipt for the amount they owe 1 th1s country or make the terms such as t" be equivalent to a cancellation
 However, Japan may spoil any ar of this kind, as she owes America but d nominal amount and could lot be coerSed into such an agreement from purely financial reasons For sev- oral weeks anti Japanese articles have been carried III administration organs, md there are those who think the arti les are inspired, the definite intent being o make her either agree to the Washing on idea or face a hostile alliance of our big powers,
 With the international financiers and he international diplomats gathered in Washington. and with the conferences elng held behind closed doors, we are till hoping that disarmament will be rough Int about. But we can't help feileen hat the American taxpayers will do we'll ) watch that conference, watch Secre- ary Mellon eff congress gives him the equested poWerS), and. above all watch 1elr pOcketbooks.

When A Man Goes Straight
BY L. T. ELLIS

, tons of New Testament criticism as
well as of the present social message
of Christianity, still rage about this
Master mind of the Christian
CHURCH. Viewed in the large, Saul's
dramatic conversion is one of the
outstanding events of the annals of
the race.
Right About Face
Sugar-and-mush type of religious
teachers, who are striving to make
drab and dingy and harmless good
for-naughts out of real boys and
girls, should take special notice of
the fact hat Saul was a somebody
going somewhere when he met Je-
sus. He vas a first-rlass bigot and
partisan and prosecutor, it is true;
but the Lord dearly loves a person
of force. 1t is hard for HIM
write reverently-to do his great
work with disciples who are mere
negatives, little folk of little SOUL"
He delights in the out-and-out
man or woman, boy or girl. the one
VIC is strongly for something. The
mere money-grubber, the society
butterfly, the petty pleasure
seeker, are poor material out of
which to make saints and heroes;
although the grace of God is equal
even to that.
But when Christ meets a first
class spirit. like Saul. hot on some
~engrossing errand he can turn him
"right-about-face." and make him
even greater in a divine mission.
That is why we covet the mighty for
God and want to see the strong
converted Saint Chrysostom says of
the arresting of Saul at the apex of
his anti-Christian activities:
Christ. like a skillful physician,
healed him when the fever was at
the worst" All, world, world
mad with materialism, drunk with
dissipation, sick with selfishness,-
If only now you could meet face to
face with the consummate and con-
quering Christ!
1t was moo on the Damascus
Road when Saul saw the greater
Light, that dazzled him to a blind
ness that led to true sight. This was
no mere subjective experience with
in the mind of the overweight
zealot: his materially-minded com
panions also saw the glory and heard
the voice. To them the sound was
meaningless: to their leader it rang
clear. Saul. Saul, why ~persecutest
thou Me?"
who are thou, Lord?"
Il am Jesus, Whom thou perse-
cutest."
That Vision and that Voice made
Saul a Christian; and gave to the
Church the author of it's first Scrip
lures; it's organizing mind: and it's
first missionary. When Saul met
Jesus that day all his life became
Christo-centric, so that his own
autobiography thereafter became
Tor to nle to live is Christ"
That is what a meeting with the
Saviour did for the raging Jew of
Tarsus: that is what it will do for
our own mad world.
