In the second chapter Of Exodus sixth verse; you will
find these words "And when she had opened it, she
the child; and behold, the babe wept AT she had
compassion on him and said This is one of the Hebrew
children"
The babe was the infant Noses afterwards the
mghtiest who ever breathed the air of earth or
pressed his feet upon its soil The "she" was the
daughter of Pharoah of Egypt the most powerful monarch
of his time; nameess far the sacred record shows
but tradition tells us her "Tharmuth."
Now note the connection.
The chds tears aroused compassion in the heart of
princess and prompted her to adopt him her son. and
train and educate him Gin all the learning of the Egyp-
ans civil and military, that he became the greatest
general and most learned law gver of all time There is

STOP THE AGITATION

The Dispatch believes it to be to the best interests Of
the schools and the pubic welfare that further controversy
and agitation on the school matter be held down to a
minimum.
After this ISSUE we will not publish any further COM
municatons touching on the school controversy.
We believe have been fair to both sides OF the
question: that the full issue Of the controversy is before
the people. Any further comment or publication on
the issue in the columns Of this paper will be merely
fair and impartial presentation of facts recording IN
way any important developments that may occur in
the situation.
We believe in free and frank discussion in the public
press Of all issues before the people, and this has been
the policy of The Dispatch in the past and always will be-
But the public welfare and the interests Of the schools
would to be best served by shutting off agitation
which tends only to embtter and aggravate the situation
and therefore we are constrained to devisc from this
policy at this time.
Publications in The Dispatch in the future will be
merely recording of the actual developments in the
school situation

A REST ROOM

Some time SINCE The Dispatch advocated the establish
ment of rest room up town very thoughtful and
conslderate courtesy to the country people who were
compelled to remain in town for several hours The fact
that some of the Columbus merchants have provided such
facilities for the comfort of their patrons does not lessen
the need of general central stopping place for
out of town friends.
Our neighboring city, West Point has anticipated us,
and already has her rest which obtained through
the efforts Of the Business Girls Club the New Century
Club and the Chamber of Commerce, working together.
They have rented vacant sorehouse and planning to
fit it up with the essential furnishings of such room
1t would be the handsome thing for Columbus to do,
and The Dispatch would suggest that the various civic
organizations get together and formulate plan by which
Columbus may have rest for shoppers and visitors

WOULD HAVE SOVIETS
ACKNOWLEDGE DEBT.

Copenhagen. July 2S.-Rumors
are in circulation in Reveal says a
eNspatch to the Politician from the
Capital today that as an extreme
measure in an effort to secure help in
the present crisis, Lenihe has pros
ed to the Soviet government acknowl-
edgement of the nations debt which
the Bolsheviki cancelled after the re-
volution. Proposed payment will not
begin before 1923.
According to the rumors which are
lacking in confirmation in official cir
cles it is proposed that a conference
be summoned between the Soviet gov
ernment and European countries to
determine the exact amount of the
debt and provide immediate resump-
tion of trade relations.
Lenine Krassin, the minister of
trade and commerce, is reported to
have been commissioned to ascertain
the attitude Of France in this con-
nection.

THE ROLSHEVIKI HAVE A
MOTIVE FO RHESITATlNS

The Bolsheviki hold up their gcry
hands in horror and reproachtully
charge Mr. Hoover that he is put
ting in the balance seven or eight
American prisoners and the lives OF
millions of starving Russian women
and children and holds them of equal
weight
AS matter of fact the require
ment that American prisoners be re-
leased is only one of Mr.. Hoover's S
conditions for the rendering of as
sistance And as far as that goes,
the Leninites in hesitating do just
as much balancing as Mr.. Hoover
does.
Probably ~. big thing that keeps
them from refusal is not that they
are so reluctant to lose a few pris-
oners but that they don't want the
public to catch a glimpse of Russia
as she really is. Probably the un-
sympathetic outsider would not find
conditions in Russia in such pit
liable state after all.

TWO POWERS MAY SUGGEST
OTHER MEETING PLACE

London, July 27.-The hope that
the conference on Pacific aR1 Far
Eastern questions may be held in
some American city other than
Washington. or in some Canadian
city is expected to be expressed by
two of the great powers invited to
participate-Great Britain and ia
pant was authoritatively learned
this evening.
News of Japan's official acceptance
of President Harding's invitation,
which it is expected here will be
Forthcoming this week, is awaited
in London with great interest, for
in the Japanese communication it is
considered probable that there will
be suggestion that a Pacific coast
city in the United States or Cana
dian city would be more suitable
than Washington for the conference.
It is stated that Japan feels that
the problems of the Pacific could
ocean than in the American capital,
and that inasmuch as a change to
the Pacific coast, either that of the
United States or Canada, would
greatly ameliorate the event of their
being delegates, the idea Of changing
the conference location would be ac-
ceptable to Great Britain.
1t is not expected that a new
place for the conference will be sug-
gested, that being left to the Wash
Iington authorities.
Japan considers that there are i'm
portant matters relating to Mexico
and the Dutch East Indies in which
she has considerable interest, and
that inasmuch as Mexico and Ho1-
land have not been invited to take
part in the conference at Washing
ton, the inference is drawn that only
such questions as Shantung and Yap
are contemplated for discussion, ac-
cording to statement from Japa-
nese sources issued here.
The contention is put forth that
Japan cannot go to Washington mere
ly for such a limited discussion. ia
pan, it is declared, has no objection
to entering conference such as that
proposed and is even grateful to the
United States for inviting her to dis
cuss disarmament, but can only con-
sent to general discussion pro-
vlded all matters embraced by Pa
cific problems are discussed.
