British Premier
Hopeful of.Early
Irish Settlement
Lloyd George Says Prospect
Good for Acceptance of
Peace Proposals, at Lord
Mayors Banquet.
BY Universal Service.

London, Nov. 9.-The lord mayors
banquet tonight assumed more than
national Importance when the pre-
mier, replying to the mayors toast
to the cabinet ministers, followed the
custom of such gatherings at tie
historic Guild hall, of speaking his
mind regarding foreign affairs.
The tradition has been that the
premier must touch only on foreign
policies, but in response to the lord
mayors suggestion that the guests
anxiously awaited news of the Irish
conference, Mr.. Lloyd George ex-
panded the statement made early in
his speech that "the Washington con-
ference is like rainbow in the sky"
and then passed to Ireland.
He declared there was better
prospect of Great Britain's proposals
to Ireland being needed today ano OF
Ireland accepting the invitation to en-
ter the British commonwealth as an
equal than for years, but that the
conference was still in critical stage.
Beyond this, he refrained from di-
vulging the results or the possibili-
ties of the conferences.
In his opening remarks the pre-
mier alluded to the economic troubles
affecting the world such as followed
the Napoleonic war. He expressed
the conviction that the force of the
cyclone was already spent, and fol-
lowed with recital OF numerous
symptoms indicating revival was
coming, particularly the fact that "in
every land the slackness that seemed
to overcome labor is passing away"

Filibuster on
Anti-Beer Bill
Is Called Off
Senate Agrees to Vote on No.
ve1nber l8; ''Wets'' Plan
Fight II, Measure
Passes.

Washington, Nov 9.-Passage Of
the Campbell-Willis bill, banning
beer as medicine, was assured by a
unanimous consent agreement for
vote on it November 18.
Senate approval by vote of three
to one, is predicted. The bill re-
ceived the approval of the house, and
following the senate's action, it will
go to the White House.
DRY" leaders expressed conf
dence that President Harding would
sign it and it would become law
within three weeks.
Nevertheless medicinal beer still
has one good chance of recognition
as a product within the law. "Wet"
forces are planning to begin vigor-
Gus legal battle at once to retain the
right to brew beer for medicinal
purposes.
The moment the measure becomes
effective, they expect to go into the
courts with plea that the act is
unconstitutional.
The sudden collapse of the "wet"
flllbuster came as complete sur
prise to the senate. The expectation
was that the hlibuster would be con-
tinued indefinitely and that finally
republican leaders would again side
track the bill in order to make way
Tor more pressing legislation. The
"drys," however, threatened to in
woke the cloture rule, and failing in
that purpose, declared their inten-
ton of keeping the senate on the
job day and night until vote was
reached. Realizing that passage of
the bill ultimately could not be pre-
vented, opponents of the measure
finally agreed to give up the fill
huster. .

Washington, Nov. "a plain
soldier, unknown but weighted with
honors as perhaps no American be-
fore him because he died for the
flag in France, lay tonight in a
place where only martyred presi-
dents, Lincoln, Garfield and Nc
Kinlcy, have slept.
He kept lonely vigil, lying in
state under the vast, shadowy dome
OF the capitol. Only the notion
less figures OF the five armed COM
rades, one at the head and one
facing inward at each corner OF the
bier, kept watch with him.
But far above, towering from the
great bulk of the dome, the brood
ing figure OF Freedom watched, too,
as though it said "Well done" to the
servant, faithful unto death, asleep
there in the vast, dim chamber
below.
Americas unknown dead is home
from France, and the nation has no
honor too great for him. In him it
pays its unstintcd tribute OF pride
and glory to all those sleeping in
France. 1t was their homecoming
today; their day of days in the
heart of the nation.
Sodden skies and a chilling rain
went to mark the mourning of
America at the bier of this unknown
hero. But from the highest Of
ficials to the last soldier or marine
or bluejacket, rain and cold meant
nothing beside the desire to do
honor to the honor soldier.

Successor to Hara
Remains Uncertain

Toxic, Nov. 9.--(By the Asso-
ciated Press. 1.-The problem of a
successor to the premiership re-
mained uncertain, largely because OF
the continued refusal of Marquis
Saionji, pleading age and i'll health,
to consider acceptance of the post.
As an alternative, Marquis Saionji
was asked to suggest some other per-
sons whom he considered qualified,
but it is not known if he made any
recommendation, and both the Nichi

Shimbun consider there is still a

Keno Adachi, a Seiyu-Kai leader,

the choice if Marquis Saionji per-

Restrictions
Are Removed on
Farmers Loans
War Finance Corporation Per
mits State Banks to Incur
Unlimited Indebtedness
To Aid Clients.

As a result of the combined ef-
forts of Governor McKelve, Attor-
ney General Davis and 7. w
Thomas, regional chairman of the
War Finance corporation, the gen.
eral counsel of the corporation IN
Washington issued ruling yester-
day removing all restrictions on the
amount of Indebtedness a state bank
may incur to the War Finance cor
poration.
Mr.. Thomas explained the matter
in the following statement:
Must File Statement.
"Whcre applications to the War
Finance corporation show bills pay
able and rediscounts for an amount
in excess of the capital and surplus
of a bank, an officer of the state bank
should file statement that the pro-
ceeds of the advance from the War
Finance corporation will be used
either to retire bills payable or re-
discounts, or to build UP reserves for
the protection of depositors.
"The fact is quite we'll established
that when banks borrow at this
time, the funds are for the most
part used to build up ample reserves
for the protection of the bank and
its depositors and take care of the
farmers and stockmen; although in
many instances banks are transfer
ring their lines of credit to the War
Finance corporation in order to re-
lieve their correspondents, and also
in order that they may leave open
their lines of credit with correspond
ents.
"The Omaha Agricultural Loan
agency has already received applica-
tions, secured by farmers notes,
from over l20 banks in Nebraska, ali
OF which have been acted on prompt
ly and proper recommendations
made to Washington, where the ap-
plications were satisfactorily conf
pleted." ..#
Banks Get Money.
J. M. Flannlgan, secretary OF the
Omaha agency, states:
"The Federal Reserve bank OF
Omaha today received instructions
from the War Finance corporation
at Washington to pay out $4,000 to
bank in Valley county and $1,000
to bank in Sherman county.
Prompt service is given where the
bankers are careful to properly pre-
pare the. required form of arplica-
ton.
Bankers of the state are gener-
ally showing proper interest in the
liberal terms offered by the War
Finance corporation, in order to
properly take care of their agricul-
tural clients, including stockmen."

How to Attain Efficiency.
The greatest cause of leakage and
waste in public education is due to
the lack OF fitness and preparation on
the part of the teaching force, and
this lack of fitness is responsible to
the garing inequalities in compensa-
ton for the labor rendered that has
operated to keep the best young men
and women out of the teaching pro-
fession, Mr.. Blair declared.
Maximum efficiency in every
school room, he held, will not have
been attained until every instructor
has been trained academically and
professionally for her work and such
teachers will not be obtained until
the various districts, municipalities
and states make more. certain the
social and economic standing of the
teacher.
"As long as a great wealthy COM
monwealth will allow its schools to
be instructed by such unprepared
teachers there is bound to be leakage
and wastage throughout the SYSTEM"
Mr.. Blair stated.
Another cause of waste in public
instxlction is the failure to under
stand the economic value of trained
superintendents and supervisors in an
educational system, Mr.. Blair said.
Class distinction and class conflict
which, he said, often appears between
the supervising teacher and the
teaching teacher, must be done away
with.
!, Co-Operation Nec4ssary.
"The two great words which every
teacher should know the meaning of
are independence and cooperation
Mr.. Blair continued. THAT inde-
pcndence should be expected by
every supervising teacher and to at
tain the greatest degree of independ-
cnce and liberty the teacher must
work through wise system of CO.
operation"
"Our compulsory education laws
are not what they should be, and
until they become nationwide, the
disgrace of illiteracy will continue
to sit on our front porch" Mr.. Blair
stated. "We took our first stride
from chance to certainty when a
public tax was laid upon all the
property of a community to provide
education for all the youth of that
community. The second step was
taken when the statewide compul-
sorry education laws were passed
However, it is clear to everyone
that the mere forcing of children
into a public school does not insure
an education unless there are ma
terials of thought provided which
are within their grasp and within
their interest. One OF the greatest
