OGDENSBJDRG. y. Y. July 1S.-
Working by searchlght until late last
night rcscuers took safely to shore
the $50 passengers OF the steamship
Rapids King, which, disabled. had
gone ashore near here on Saturday
afternoon. OF the rescued many were
women and children.
1t was after a night of terror, with
raging waters beating against their
craft. that the passengers aboard the
disabled steamship found on break of
day yesterday rescuers on shore,
lines attached to tree tops and a
band OF rivermen familiar with the
Long Sault Rapids currents on hand
ready 10 give succor.
The steamer, hard aground on the
rocks since Saturday afternoon at
| I 50 o'clock in one OF the most
ttreacherous spots of the st. Law
renee, lay listed on her starboard
SIDE, three holes punCtured in her
hull from burstcd rivets, pumps
working full force, and in a sixteen
mile an-hour current broken BY huge
rocks on either side.
To Capt. George Batten Of King
ston, one OF the veteran pilots of the
line, the passengers owe their lives.
Alone on Saturday night he embarked
in life boat for shore. With only a
pair OF oars to guide him through the
treacherous current he managed to
reach shore two miles below the
stranded craft. A rope thrown to him
later, on BaTnhal't's Island, an I'M

steamer, was made fast and a cable

The task which Lloyd George has
to get Sir James to come to some
kind of terms with De Valera as the
representative OF majority OF the
Irish people. II will he explained to
the Ulster leader that the ability OF
the British Premier to secure peace
will depend very largely on the will
ingness of the Ulsterites TO follow
the example of the South of Ireland
as shown since De Valera came here.
Much OF the printed comment upon
this situation Is based on misc oncep-
tons. There can be no question, for
example, so far as the Irish mission
is concerned, of simply tinkerinS
with the present act for better govern
ment OF ireland by arranging moro
favorable money terms Nor is there
any point in the statement that Mr..
DE Valera has promised not to de-
prve Ulster of any of her rights
under that act. Ireland Is still claim
ing the right to frame her own Con-
stItution, which is very different from
claiming that it be amended
Mr., Lloyd George has been week
ending at Chequers, Mr.. De Valera in
London and elsewhere.
Mr.. De Valera has had to issue at
least two denials, one a specific denial
of the statement attributed to him in
French paper and the other a gen
eral denial that he had made any
compromise demands or that he was
entitled to make any demand but one
that the self-determination of the
Irish people must be recognized"
Mr.. De Valera, Mr.. Griffith and
most of the Catholic members of the
Irish delegation in London attend
ed high mass in st. Georges Cathe-
dral in Southwark in the morning. A
crowd OF irish sympathlzers, several
thousands in number, cheered them
vociferously as they entered and
again when they left. and d band
played the Soldiers Song" and God
Save Ireland" Mr.. Griffith, one OF
the last of the party to leave the Ca
thedral tried to make an unostenta-
tious exit, but the crowd hoisted him
shoulder high and carried him to one
OF the three cars in which the dele
cation drove away.
The Manchester Guard an in an edi-
toral says:
1t will be idle to speculate as TO
the course OF the prolonged and critical
discussion which has gone on day
after day behind closed doors, man 10

Marion, Ohio, Jan. IA. (By Ray
mond Clapper.)-Temporary saban-
Comment Of a plan for department
OF public welfare is called for by
Harding today chiefly in demand for
pubic economy.
During the campaign Harding de-
clared for. q department OF public
welfare combining the machinery
now scattered: around the various de-
partments, including the public
health service under the treasury de-
partment, the bureau Of education in
the interior department and the child

One Of the arguments used against
introducing q new department now is
that it would entail the necessity OF
another cabinet officer, the cost OF
additional clerical force and erection
of a larger building in Washington.

NOW THE NORTHWESTERN
BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY

The telephone company here will
henceforth be known as the North
western Belly Telephone company,
having changed its name January 1.
On taat date the three Bell COM
panies operating throughout the
states of Nebraska, Iowa, Minneso-
ia, North and South Dakota were con-
solidated under the one name. No
change was made in officers or head
quarters, as the companies, for many
years, have been under one manage
ment.
The three companies were placed
under one name to eliminate incon-
veniences in managing, operating and
financing the business as three separ-
ale corporations.
The name Northwestern Bell Tele-
phone company was chosen because
a considerable part of the territory in
cluded in the new organization has
been long known as "the North
west"
