TACTFUL MEN
NEED OF u. S. IN
SOUTH AMERICA
Trade Problems and DiplO.
matte Relations Held of
First Importance.

| MARION, Ohio, Jan. 4.-President-
elect Harding is looking for men pos
| sessing tact, personal charm, statesman
/ ship and thorough knowledge of the
| history customs, conditions and peculiari
I ties Of Latin America. When he finds
them he wants to make them the diplo
matte representatives of the United States
| in South American countries. His owQ
announcement that no diplomatic posts
yet have been rendered makes 1t evident
| that the available material is not over
abundant.
Senator Harding, It became known to-
day, feels that the problems they will
have to face makes the selection OF the
most able men available for the Latin
American posts an imperative necessity.
The scope Of some of these problems was
brought TO the attention of Senator
Harding today by w. A. Davies of New
York, who recently returned from South
America. Davies outlined tho apprehen-
sion expressed by Argentina over the
provisions of the emergency tariE legis-
/ lation now before Congress.
DESIRES TRADE OF
SOUTH AMERICA.
That country, Davies declared, felt
that if she were prevented by tariff
wall from selling wheat, meat, wool and
hides to the United States she would be-
in no financial condition 10 buy Ameri-
can products. The President-elect, it is
known, IS extremely DESTROYS Of encOur-
aging and increasing trade with South
America and at the same time Is unal.
, terably determined to afford protection
TO Americn farmers and stock growers.
On the tact and Judgment Of the men
who VIII represent his Administration
N the Southern capitals be depends TO
accomplish both these objects, and it IS
certain he win select them with a care
equal TO that accorded the gentlemen who
viii park their ambassadorial hats In
London, Paris, Rome or Toxic for the
next four years
Mr.. Davies told the Senator that the
exports from the United States to Argcn
tina had fallen of from approximately
SZ0O0O.O00 a month to less than 5000 .Oa1
tecause Of Argentina financial condt
tion. It is understood that the proposed
loan to Argentina Of $10O,o00.O00 was not
. discussed.
LOWDEN SLATED
FOR DIPLOMATIC POST.
Authoritative information that Senator
Harding is most anxious TO induce Frank
q. Lowden to enter the public service.
has served to revive reports that the
former candidate for the Republican NOM
ination may be named as aInba ssador to
one of the more important world capt.
tails, possibly to the Court OF St James.
Senator Harding, 1t is known, has a high
opinion Of the ability and tact Of the
former Illinois Governor
The emphasis placed by Senator Curtis
of Kansas on the necessity of avoiding
resort 10 any part Of the Wilson program

Cnpuctuality is inevitable and she

Mentally. temperamentally and
physically she is quite unable to

II is, OF course. absurd to say that

A Profitable Pest.

= YER since the boil weevil crossed the Mexican
L. border into Texas many years ago. the
Southern cotton planter has bemoaned fate from
which there seems no escaping and each year has
faced material reduction in his crop of the useful
staple Experts from the Department of AgricuI-
ture and State agricultural experts rushed to his
assistance Generous treasuries appropriate millions
But nothing which man could conceive seemed
able to retard the ever increasing devastation
wrought by the little pest. 1t was serious and
alarming problem for the South and the nation
Planters talk seriously of abandoning cotton culti-
vation unless something is done about it. Next year
IT doubtless will the normal aspect of very
serious handicap.
But just now the destructive little pest is not
altogether so unpopular as his habits Justify. Not
only was the weevil destroying a large portion of
the growing cotton, but the price had fallen so low
as to make it improbable market such cotton as
could be produced. The warehouses were full OF
cotton held over from the year before More cotton
was on hand and in sight than the nation could
normally consume.
No one realized just how much damage the
weevIl was causing until the crop was harvested
millions OF bales short OF what was to be expected
The supply again normal and prices be-
gan to rise. Cotton that had been held began to
move The farmer again became a purchaser and
paid some long overdue accounts. The cotton belt
recovered almost overnight from what appeared to
be one OF its most disastrous years
A large gap in business rcadustment was
bridged And the boil weev can Justly claim
hons share OF the glory. Next year he again will
be the planters peril but just now he is eniovinp
some excuse for his undisturbed winter Information
The Washington herald., 1921-11-06

Personally I think that the
careers of three charming but
dangerous ladies, Lady Randolph
Churchill, Mrs. Asquith and Lady
Astor give overwhelming proof that
ladies are not fitted TO public life.
Lady Randolph was a very pretty.
precocious person, with the sort Of
impish humor and instant repartee
that made her new thing in the
orthodox London of her time. some
thing even in the nature of a de-
lightful and surprising freak TO the
unresilient aristocracy into which
she was introduced by the Marl-
borough bantam of the early '70's.
BY her marriage to the Enfant
Terrible Lord Randolph Churchill
who was then regarded by the
earnest statesman with a mixture
of surprise and alarm she took her
place among the people to whom
politics was an inherited right. like
polo. the army, the navy, the church
and port wine. To the attractiveness
OF a quick tongue, a keen eye and
an inquiring nose she added a fa-
nous French cook who made her
dinner table most grateful to young
Balfour-if ever he was young-to
Salisbury, Gladstone, Harcourt,
