What Proofs of God?

Copyright, ls2l.)


President Harding, placing a
wreath on the coffin of the first
American soldier killed in Ger
many, and looking through his
tears at five thousand other coffins.
containing dead men, said: ut
must not be again."
There is one way to prevent it
keep this country prepared and
protected, especially with flying
machines and submarines, and
well-trained men for both.
The Rev. Percy Stickney Grant,
preacher in New York Fifth ave.
nue. church, supplies interesting
copy. The other day he found a
little girl baby on his doorstep,
baptized her. and is keeping her
In the room next to his.
Just before that he warned
churches, particularly his own
Protestant Episcopal churches,
that If they didn't do more for
the people, the people would not
allow them to carry hundreds Of
millions in real estate without pay
ing any taxes.
Now he says: 81 often wish that
] could run beauty parlor." He
believes that taking care of the
body is good for the soul. That's
a long, pleasant move from days
when some saints proved their
sanctity By never taking a bath.
DR.. Grant also tells of woman
who had silver spot on her face"
went to the Christian Science
Church and was cured The doc
tor wasn't sure the spot was gone,
but the woman looked so happy,
cheerful, and animated that if the
spot was there he didn't see it.
The doctor also said that illegit-
innate children die because their
mothers, ostracised and despised
in our sweet Christianity, bring
forth children too weak to survive.
DR.. Grant said a good deal in one
short sermon.

Hara Stancll for America

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 (By The
Associated Press) The late Premier
Hara of Japan viewed the United
States as ''the strongest and longest
friend of Japan" the Rev. Mr.. K.
Tsunashima, of Toxic, said to-day in
an address at the First Congrega-
tional Church. He quoted Premier
Hara as holding it "unthinkable that
this friendship, unique and unparal-
leled In the fellowship of nations"
should be broken.
"'Stralns may come and misunder-
standings may arise" the Toxic min
lister said the Premier not long before
he was assassinated told an American
missionary. "'But that the time should
ever come when they shall be unable
to find solution of their problems-that

Delegates Are Kept Busy
In Sunday Conferences
American Group Meets at Home
OF. Secretary Hughes; Firm
Stand Oh Napies Indicated

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 (By The AS
sociated Press) Sunday was no day
of rest for the delegates to the arma-
ment conference.
Practically without exception the
various delegations spent the entire
day either in executive session among
themselves or in close conference with
representative of other nations.
The American group met at Secre-
tary Hughes's home and devoted sew
eral hours to analysis Of the naval
situation. At the disposal of the Amer
lean delegates were several statistical
studies prepared by the technical staff
under instructions issued since the
Japanese reservations became known
officially. No statement was issued,
but it was understood that, heartened
by the information that Great Britain
would support the capital ship ratio
proposal, the delegation found nothing
to warrant consideration of the possi-
bility that the naval proposal might be
materially revised.
Especially active to-day were the
groups having a vital interest in the
Far Eastern question, which is to ceme
up tomorrow. Informal discussion
i'm these quarters was said tonight to
have led to the belief that co1isidera-
tion of the Chinese problem might Gull
inmate in the raising of the question
of Shantung.

Britain cannot contemplate without
dismay the existence of an enormous
army on the other side OF the English
Channel. The British frankly want
France to abandon conscription, but
her spokesmen here express little hope
of France ever doing 80.

will be prepared to indorse every word

German attack, and that is Marshal
Foch. 1t is even possible that the Al
to speak. When this was suggested to
the Premier q few days ago he said
that there was no such intention on
the part of the French delegation, but
that if others present called for the
Marshal undoubtedly he would make an
address.
There will be those present to-mor-
row who are quite likely to voice a de-
mand that the Marshal be heard At
the first plenary session the Senator'S
and Representative from the galleries
called successively for speeches from
the leaders of every delegation present,

Japanese Are Confident
Accord viii Be Reached
Conference of Hughes, Baltour
and Kato ssCleured Air,' of
Mary Misunderstood Points

WASHINGTON. Nov. 90 (By The AS
sociated Press).--As result of the
conference yesterday of Secretary
Hughes. Arthur j. Balfour and Admiral
Kato, at which the naval question was
thoroughly canvassed in the light of
the Japanese reservations, the greatest
confidence was expressed in authorita-
tive Japanese circles tonight that an
accord eventually would be reached.
The conference, it was said, effectually
cleared the air" of many misunder-
stood points.
While no official statement was forth
coming as to the line followed by the
trlpartlte discussion yesterday, it was
believed that partial explanation at
least lay in the statement obtained at
the headquarters of one delegation that
the three great naval powers ssmight
have varying estimates of the actual
existing strength Of their navies which.
being harmonized, might suggest way
TO settlement of ratios.''
:. The position of Japan was set forth
tonight as that of determination to
attain a favorable agreement Jana.
nese experts were emphatic in declar-
ing that tonnage and not consideration
OF speed and armament was the logical
basis of ratio displacements. They
pointed out that battle cruiser might
possess greater speed, but that she was
inferior to dreadnought in strength
OF armor and number of guns, and
that IN a naval engagement at close
quarters would certainly be at a dis
adyantage- Therefore, the fact that
brisisn and Japanese capital ships in
c1ude battle cruisers was not to them
an indication of superiority and should
not be counted as such, they insisted,

Hughes Expected to Cipe
Some assurance in BrinnJ

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 (By The As
sociated Press 1.-The main subject of
speculation among delegates tonight
was whether after Premier BRAND had
spoken tomorrow at the plenary ses-
sion of the conference Secretary
Hughes would follow with declara-
tion on behalf of the United States.
1t was regarded as extremely likely
that he would have something to add
to the French Prime Minister'S utter
ances, designed to give "moral sup
port" to France in her position with
respect to Germany.
1t is probable that other delegates
also will speak on the same subject,
particularly Senator Schanzer, head OF
the Italian delegation, who will take
occasion, it is understood, TO discuss
the relative military establishments of
Italy and Jugo-Slavia.
Following the address of Premier
Brand it was said tonight Chairman
Hughes probably will suggest that the
whole question of land ornaments be
referred to the committee of FIVE for
an appropriate resolution dealing with
the proposed treatment of the subject.
