while the body Of another was
found near the barracks Of his

civilian slain was shot by several
men who entered his home.
Announcement has been made
that in future all motor cars carry

ly to be attacked, will carry men,
bers of the Sim Fein as hostages.
This plan has been in operation
near Cork, where martial law is in

HARDING WILL
FISH AND GOLF
AND DROPCARE
President-elect Hopes
for Isolation on
Outing.

On Board President-Elect Hard
ing's Train, Jan. 21.-With his
troubles packed in kit bag that
he intends to keep tightly locked
for at least two weeks, President
elect Harding turned his thoughts
to golf sticks and fishing rods to-
day as he journeyed southwark for
a vacation in Florida.
The association of nations, tax
reform, the choice of a cabinet and
all the other topics'that have been
long hours with him dur
ing the last six weeks in Marion
are to be put as far away from his
mind as possible until he has had
q good rest. His Marion confer
ences frequently have kept him
busy from early morning until late
at night, and the strain and lack
of exercise have told materially on
his physical condition.
Not once since his return from
Panama early in December has he
been able to visit his favorite play
ground. the golf links. Walking
has been his only recreation. and
he has found little time ovGR tor
that.
Fishing Trip.
The fishing trip down the east
ern shore Of Florida is to occupy
the first two weeks of his stay in
the south. It. is his hope to be iso-
lated from observation during the
period, though he may venture
forth once or twice to play golf.
Early In February he will take up
his residence at st. Augustine ho-
tel, where he will remain until just
before his Inauguration.
Mr.. Harding's private car, which
left Marion at midnight, went
southwark today attached to regu-
lar passenger trains and was 10
pass through Chattanooga late in
the afternoon and reach Atlanta
during the evening. He will arrive
at st. Augustine ON Sunday.
Mrs. Harding remained behind to
dispose Of personal affairs in Mar
ion, but win come to Florida after
Ia shopping trip to Washington and
New York.

White Says America Must
Not Be Only Nation to
Cut Naval Force.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Staggering
burdens Of tkxation resulting from
the World War have caused the
peoples Of all nations to favor a
world agreement on disarmament,
Henry White, former ambassador
to France, and a member Of the
American peace commission to
Paris, declared today before the
house naval committee, which is
holding headings on this subject.
Il think the world is crying for
some agreement" he said, ''but
do not favor the United States be-
ing the only nation to disarm."
The United States, he added
should take the initiative in the
disarmament movement and the
conference should be held in this
country. Any gathering looking to
general disarmament should in
clude France and Italy, as well as
the United States, Great Britain
and Japan, the former ambassador
said, but discussions looking to q
reduction Of naval building only
should be limited, for the present al
least, to Great Britain, Japan and
the United States.
Result in Chao.
II think it would result in chaos
if all nations of the world were te
be represented at the proposed con
ference" said Mr.. White.

Former Secretary Gage
Favors Uniform Bond
to Cover Liability.

Copyright, 1921, by the United
Press.)
San Diego, Calif., Jan. 21.-Issu-
ance Of q uniform government
bond. combining the various war
liabilities, at q desirable rate, was
advocated in an interview today by
Lyman J. Gage, former secretary
Of the treasury, as one Of the con-
structive measures in the present
financial emergency.
'aThe forces In finance tend al
ways toward a readjustment," Gage
said, "and move 70 irresistibly that
legislative interference often does
more harm than good. I'm times Of
stress what we need most is forti-
tude, courage and patience.
I'VE are in a domestic, political
and financial tangle which we can
solve only by the belief that the
natural forces at work are in the
main curative rather than destruc-
tive. and by the boldness to act in
accordance withthem. High prices,
government Indebtedness and in
dustrial activity have brought us
to the apex of expanded credit and
we are facing a period Of decline.
"In negotiating its credit the
government has too long been in
the position of the beggar with his
hat in his hand, asking for aims
to support bonds which have fallen
below par. Without the federal
reserve bank the situation would
be critical indeed. But even here
instead Of reserving its power as a
resource it has been utilized to
encourage expansion. But indus
trial U1pgnsfo onuW reached ite
limit and the time to apply the
brake has COME.
Five Per Cent Bond.
The plan I have suggested is the
issuance Of a uniform 5 per cent
government bond. This bond
should be made desirable to the
ultimate investor and should be
absorbed by him Funding all gov
ernment indebtedness in this man
ner would thus lift the burden
from the banks now carrying toe
large load Of these obligations.
This bond should be issued al
5 per cent interest with redemp.
tions at from five to thirty-five
years. 1t would serve to relieve in
. large degree the strain on The
federal reserve banks"

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD
A Word In Season
By JACOB I. MEYEROVITZ
Rabbi Mt. Zion Hebrew C0ngrega-
ton, st. Paul

The Managing Editor Of the Amer
lean Jewish World out of great kind
ness of heart has written me, 1--WE
feel that our Rosh Ha-shanah num-
Der would be incomplete without an
article from the pen of the new Rabbi
of the Reform congregation in Saint
Paul." Such magnificent hyperbole
deserves an article of merit, if pos
sible of distinction. Unfortunately I
am able to do neither. For the past
week, and longer, I have been living
in Pullmans and that is VIGOROUSLY
inconducive to either sustained or sub
stantial thinking.
However, I am real glad that your
publication goes by the name of The
American Jewish World. That is
broad enough to include, if I mistake
not, even st. Paul. am not so sure
about Minneapolis. A story I recent
ly heard makes me dubious. But,

then, as I am still a stranger, I am
not quite sure. But the story con-
Germs some Swedish gentlemen who
were visiting Chicago. Upon being
asked how they liked the city, they
replied they did not care for Amer
lea. They thought they would go
back to Minneapolis.
But joking aside, regret to learn
that the proper civic preferences of
the respective citizens Of the Twin
Cities are permitted to influence them
in the field of Jewish endeavor where
only the greatest harmony and unity
of purpose should prevail. trust
my informant has misled me-that
he mistakes good-natured civic pride
for obstinate and unhealthy rivalry.
But Jewish philanthropy and social
endeavor cannot afford to be provin-
cial. Here we must think and act
imperially and internationally. A
boundless charity-or to use our bet

daring cavaIrymen and irregulars who

Crown Prince George of Greece had
a narrow escape from injury in one
of these Turkish surprise attacks and
was hurriedly taken to a place of
safety. 1t was the first real danger he
had experienced since he came to the
front.
While the Greek army was advanc-

Turks in the rear of the Greek line
were constant menace to the Greek
communications. They turned I'D
