Far Eastern Women Want Education

CHICAGO - A desire for woman S
higher education is sweeping over the
orient: the girls of India, China and
Japan are asking for better prepare
ton for life. according to Mrs. Mar
ray Frame of Yenching college, Pc
king, who has just completed a tour
of the United States in the interest of
better education for women in the
Orient
Within the last few years, seven
colleges for women have made their
beginning in the Far East, according
to Mrs. Frame. Five of them are arts
colleges and two medical, she states
They are located as follows: Two in
India, at Lucknow in the north and at
Madras in the south; two in China.
one in the northern capital. Pek1ng.
the other in the old southern capital
Manking: one in Tokyo. the capital of
Japan. The two medical schools are
in Vellore. India and Picking, China
Last winter, when North China was
in the strangle-hold of that terrible
famine" Mrs. Frame states, students
of Yenching tPeking) college gave
Maeterlincks The Bluebird in Chi
nese, through which they raised $500
for the sufferers. Then a small troup
excused temporarily from college and
went ont into the nearest famine re-
gion to investigate. They found such
numbers of poor little girls, either de-
serted to die, or about to be sold by
their desperate parents into a life of
shame, that they begged the use of
two Buddhist temples to serve as a
haven. There they cared for over two
hundred famine victims through the
long winter months, other girls in the
college secured money and clothing,
and coming in relays for two weeks at
time to help in the work Among
other ways of raising money the girls
gave Merchant of Venice in Chinese
Are the girls ready for these op-
portunities Every year they come in
eager groups, many of them several
days journey, to enter this land of
their dreams. But every year many
must be turned sadly away for lack Of
room. A year ago ITS applicants came
for admission to the medical college at
Vellore. Only % could be received.
One hundred-fifty would-be medical
workers for the suffering womanhood
of India were turned away for lack of
room.
What is happening in the schools
of Japan is of more importance to
mankind today than what is happen

SEPTEMBER IS, WHEN STEEL
PRICES SOAR.
GIVES P%ROFlTEERS HARD RAP
Blow to Industry Dealt When Manu-
facturer Is Asked $6 For Coal and
$1.6o For Steel Bars-Issues
Two Statements

Detroit, Mich.-Henry Ford has
made a strategic movement. Wishing
ito deliver a body blow both at the
steel trust and the coal p~rofiteers," he
announced that on September 16 all OF
his plants would close down. This af.
fects the assembling plants at various
cities as well as his three Detroit
factories.
More than 900 kilograms were sent
out by Foard notifying the concerns
that have been furnishing him with
raw and partly manufactured materi.
ais DO cease their shipments.
The steel trust, as it happened, no
titled him that the price Of steel Of
$l.40 bars would at once be increased
to $3.50 and that the price would go
to 81 at a date in the near future.
Ford is quoted as saying:
Il told them that | wanted no steel.
| am going to shut down, because |
will not pay graft nor will | pay an ex-
tessive price for steel. | could get
coal if | were willing to pay graft.
Coal is offered TO me every day at an
excessive price. | had a chance to
buy 10000 tons at Sc a ton. Four dol
lars and a half a ton Is q good price
for coal, and that is all | will pay.
Il will not be a party to p~rofiteering.
That is why | am going to shut down
until coal and steel profiteering are
over. Tolerate such conditions and
they will continue Indefinitely.
There is no good reason why such
conditions should exist at all. 1t is
all a conspiracy to fleece the public.
| do not mean that union working men
as a class are conspiring, but l do
mean that their leaders are working in
close cooperation with the railway and
mine owners.
Il hated to do this" said Ford, but
1t had to be done. would have pre-.
ferred to keep going. | like to see
men employed and happy. But there
is a price that | will not pay to keep
going and that is graft. | will not pay
graft to get COAL
Somebody told Ford that Mr.. Hoove,
had challenged his statement that Goa
could be bought if one were willing tc
pay the price.
Hoover" Ford said, lis always
more ready to challenge a statement
than he is to investigate the truth OF
1t. If Hoover does not know that
brokers are offering coal at fancy
prices he is one of the few men who
do not know it. If Hoover wants tC
prevent profiteering in coal why
doesn't he do it without talking about
1t?
II am closing down" he added
when our business is breaking al
records. We are making 800 ears {
day and orders are coming in at the
rate if $500 a day. But what is the
use of doing business if one cannot dc
1t under decent conditions? I'll never
pay graft to get coal, if never start.

Paris.-The negotiations in Berlin
tetweeen the reparations mission and
German government officials came to
an end without having produced any
compromise on the German repara-
lions question acceptable to both the
British and French representatives,
according to advices reaching French
official circles.
It is now believed the reparations
commission will hold a special meet
Ing soon, at which 1t will try finally
to dispose of the question of grant
ing a moratorium to Germany.
II the last minute guarantees Of
fered by the Germans prove to be as
unsatisfactory as previous proposals,
the British are expected to try to
postpone action by the commission in
order to delay the carrying out Of
penalties Independently by France
with the hope that some way out Of
the difficulty may be found.
There has been much speculation
as to what form the French penalties,
II carried out, would take. Nothing
has been indicated officially, but all
reports from Germany seem to agree
that the first move would be occupa.
ton of the Ruhr section. The French
| government will take no action until
after the reparations commission has
made its decision, it was said in Off
cial quarters. When the commissions
decision has been made known the
| cabinet will meet and finally approve
Of a plan Of action which already has
been drawn up.
1t was suggested by some observ.
ers that Premier Poincare may delay
the proposed penalties until the re.
converting Of the Chamber of Depu.
tise the first week in October, in or.
der that the government may proceed
with its program backed up by q
vote of confidence.

FOR PASSING
OVER VETO GONE
ACID TEST IN SENATE SHOWS
PROPONENTS LACK THE
STRENGTH.
PRESIDENT STILL OPPOSED
Little Time Found for Discussion IL
Senate With Coal and Rail Strike
Holding staae-May Vote On
It BY Weekend.

Washington.-A presidential vote
on the pending soldiers compensa-
ton measure will mean its final dis
position for this session OF con-
gress. All hope Of passing this leg
islation, despite the disapproval OF
Mr.. Harding, abandoned. 1t is ad-
mitted that sufficient votes for that
purpose cannot be obtained.
An acid test poll of the senate was
taken this afternoon by Republican
leaders. They found themselves at
least one vote short of the number
required for enactment despite a
presidential disapproval. This came
as a severe shock because it had
been vigorously commended that the
opposition erred in maintaining that
the bonus was beaten if the presi-
dent vetoes the bill, as is expected
by its antagonists.
The Borah-Underwood faction, op,
posing the bonus, claim 35 votes to
sustain the presidents veto. This fig
ure is not admitted by the Repub-
lican leaders, but they say there Is
sufficient strength to sustain the
veto and nothing more is necessary.
It Is stated by McCumber and all
those closely affiliated with the
bonus legislation that no actual in
timation has come from the presi-
dent concerning his purpose. They
VIII not predict what he will do, but
express the conviction that his ap-
prevail will be given after all the
facts have been laid before him.
The president has plainly told all
callers at the White House who in
CURED regarding his attitude that
there has been no change and he
cannot approve the McCumber bill
until it carries the method Of raising
revenues to meet payments. He has
declared at all times there has been
no abandonment Of this attitude.
When Republican leaders in the
senate sought to take the matter up
with the president and ascertain just
what he will do, they were refused
an audience on the ground that the
coal and railroad strike required all
his attention. Since that time the
subject has not been discussed be.
tween the president and the Repub.
lican leaders.
But brief time was given the bonus
today as between the coal situation
and the letter OF Secretary Hughes
generating Newberry all other at
fairs were shunted aside. In fact
short speeches by Underwood (Dem
ocrat, Alabama) and Wadsworth
Republican, New York; afforded the
only reference to the bonus bill.
1t became evident that much time
will be consumed each day on the
coal famine and no suggestion is
made for a vote on the bonus before
the end of the week.
The bonus was opposed by Un
derwood on the ground that the
amount was a mere pittance com
pared with what the former service
men are making in civil life. He
favored taking the utmost care O.
the disabled.
Exceptions were taken by Wads
worth to the suggestion made b!
McCumber that If the soldiers were
not allowed adjusted compensation
they will not be willing to aid theil
country in the event of another war
He declared such an assumption wal
unfair and unwarranted. He repu
dated it on behalf Of the service
men,
