HARDING PLAN IS
POLITICAL EVENT
OF IMPOR TANCE
GERMAN PRESS THINKS PEN Is
MGHTIER THAN SWORD; IF
SUCCESSFUL LONGING OF
WORLD IS REALIZED
by the Associated Press

Berlin, July l2-The Volks Zeitung
describes President Hardng's invi-
tat!on to a disarmament conference
as a political event Of foremost i'm
portance and says:
If the American premier succeeds
in carrying his undertaking TO a sue
cessful conclusion, then the nations
OF the world will have realized the
longing OF centuries, and President
Harding will have set up for himself
monument more durable than the
fame Of all the generals Of history.
The Tageblstt believes that the
status of the United States placed
her in a favorable position TO carry
out the conference. II points out
that President Harding has seized
the opportunity to take the initiative
which has almost been lest, through
Great Britains suggestion that tbs
Anglo-Japanese pact be made the
subject OF discussion among the three
powers.
II the complicated proposal Of
President Harding succeeds. it will
In all probability, resolve Itself into
q gigantic clearing house enterprise
is the Tageblatts prediction The
newspaper doubts whether pactica
solution OF the problem will b. as
simple az II appears in theory. II
thinks "A self-conscious nation lik'
the United States. with It's vast front
age on the Atlantic and Pacific. vii
insist on maintaining q formidable
navy" and questions whether IN,
"combustible stored up In the Amer
can-Japanese relations will prove con
ducive TO the creation OF an atmos
phere for international discussion o.
the disarmament issue"
At any rate. says the Tages-Zei

Harding's Invitation will be receives

The goodies placed in the baskets will
provide substantial Christmas din

the sweet things. As result of the
toy matinee last Saturday and from
other sources many toys were gather
ed and distributed among children
who otherwise would probably not re-
ceive any on account of the stringent
circumstances of their providers
The baskets were distributed over a
wide territory throughout the county,
a number of needy families being
found outside of the limits of Hurley

great deal of credit for their efforts,

through whose efforts many of the
needy families were located and their
