Farley Called by Harding Is
Regarded as Move OF Uni.

BY GEORGE r, HOLMES.

The Harding Administration has
abandoned, for the time being al
least, any hopes OF persuading the
principal world powers to join with
America in voluntarily reducing the
size Of standing armies, after the
manner In which the worlds navies
were limited by the Washington con.
ference.
This was the Interpretation placed
In diplomatic and official quarters to,

in calling a reduction of armament

publics Of Central America.
Baked in its efforts to accomplish
anything on worldwide scale 80
long as Europe and Asia are torn by
jealousies and political strife, the
Administration has turned it's atten,
tion to the Western hemisphere.

tary of State Hughes hope to see
set up O model arrangement by
which nations can reduce their mill

In peace and security side by side.
Among the quarrelsome little coun-
tries Of the South, the Administra-
tion hopes to establish q miniature,
working model of reduced armament
which ultimately can be extended
to worldwide Dimensions.

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-A
woman scorned and politics
became so tangled that Samuel
GAMBIA, twenty, yesterday
tripped up against the law.
Samuel was so anxious to
see q friend who was running
for office get elected that he
registered as a new voter Of
the city Of New York In his
dead brothers name.
Recently the youth had
dropped his sweetheart and
taken up with another girl.
Yesterday the girl pleaded
with Samuel to give up his new
flame and return to her.
Samuel scorned her so she
informed the authorities he
had violated the election law.
He was arrested and after
pleading guilty was held in

NEWPORT WITHOUT SINGLE RIVAL
AS PLAYGROUND FOR THE ELECT
BY CHOLLY KNICKERBOCKER.
ReEIstered U. s. Patent office,

Southampton one is never certain
about ones place in Vanity Fair.
The foremost leaders OF New
York society-and, after all, Goth
ans smart set constitutes national
society-own pretentious summer
homes at Newport. The awe-in-
spring list includes such names as
Astor. Vanderbilt, Goelet, White
house, Burden, Wilson, Fish, Mills,
Gerry, Berwind, Twombly, Auchin-
Gloss. Van Allen, Golford. Wysong,
Banks, Dolan, Rhinelander, Bel
mont, De Rham, Whitney, Burke
Roche, Morgan, Pearson, Drexel,
Fahnestock, Fosdick, Gallattin,
Hartman. James, Fearing, etc.
At Southampton one encounters
the Livingstons, Hoffmans, Foxes,
De Wits, Schieffelins, Duncans,
Ellsworths and Steeles, in addition
to the names enumerated as early
settlers"
No comparison, to be sure.
Southampton has its place
truthfully speaking, it ranks third.
Newport is and always has been
the premier summer resort OF
America, and Bar Harbor, Me-,
judged from a standpoint Of ex-
clusiveness and an absence OF
socially ambitious souls, follows in
second place. The Mount Desert
Isle resort is ultra fashionable and
is ruled by the old regime. Formal
dinner parties and musicales are
the rule at Bar Harbor, and the
swimming pool is the center Of
gayety.
Each season Bar Harbor he
comes more and more impregnable.
The leaders of the Bar Harbor
colony have succeeded in erecting
a social wall, so to speak, about
the resort and the few newcomers
who were listed among the Bar
Harborites several seasons back
have been eliminated.
Like Newport. Bar Harbor can
boast OF magnificent villas, erecte,l

-Ow that the Newport Casino

~ the 1922 season, the atten-
ton Of the social world is egain
centered on the famous Rhode
Island watering place.
We have heard much In the last
few years about the social decline
OF Newport.
Tommy-rot!
Newport has not fallen to the
rear of the social procession and
never will as long as the NAM
moth and costly palaces continue
TO stand out on the rugged cliffs
overlooking the sometimes tenn
pestuous sea. The colossal real
estate investment at Newport as.
sures the Aquidneck Isle resort Of
q pre.eminent place among the
summer spas.
Certain ambitious ink-sll1seIs
with fertile imaginations have at
tempted in their writing to class
Southampton, that extremely de.
liRhtful resort at the far end OF
Long Islands South Shore as
rival Of Newport.
More tommy-rot!
Newport and Southampton are
not rivals. The life at Newpoi
and the life at Southampton can.
not be compared. The latter spa
boasts OF a rather mixed summer
colony, and each season shelters
no end of social climbers from
Stevens Point, Wis; Tulsa, Okla;
Newark, N. j., and other points.
1t is a very rare occasion when
climbers join the Newport ranks.
southampton is leaderless. while
Newport has a very firmly estab-
lished leader-the dowager Mrs.
Vanderbilt.
At the Long Island watering
nIace one encounters a number II
cliuues-each one claiming the
leadership. At Newport there are
three sets-the dowages, younger
marrieds and debutantes. How
ever, they are all allied to the one

hold a levee on May 20, fol-
lowing the expiration of the
period of mourning for Lord
Leopold Mountbatten's death.
The first court will be held
June 8, when several daughters
of American peeresses will be
presented. Following this there
will be two garden parties at
Buckingham Palace, winding up
with a magnificent state ball at
the end Of June to celebrate
Princess Mary's wedding.
THERE is much speculation in

TRUST Washington to do
things bit differently
from other cities. To my mind
Philander johnson summed the
situation up very neatly in
some verses in the Evening
Star" IN which he states that
he's willing enough to go on
saving daylight, but doesn't
know just what he's going to
do with it unless he can even
tually:
"Ensconce himself upon . rug
And give off daylight
Like. "a lightning bug--or-
words to that effect.
HOWEVER, II people want day

Push the clock on an hour-and
the schedule automatically ad-
tusts itself. New York has done
1t and Philadelphia and most Of
the other big cities of the East.
But not Washington. Such a
course, presumably. would involve
Congress and the gentlemen up on
the hill, with a wary eye on the
farmer vote, are distinctly averse
to starting anything in this direc-
tion.
So the powers that be simply

sumably we'll haye to. for be-
lieve Uncle Sans great civil serv-

vIded we find ourselves all balled
up: and. with the best intentions
I'm the world. there's likely to he
confusion worse Confounded for
the next few weeks.
However, the proposed change
has given us something to bicker
about-even at the expense OF the
Horse Show.
ALTHOUGH box is always re-
served for the Chief Executive,
the horse show seems to have bad
luck in the matter of Presidential
patronage. Last year the Har-
dings were not able 70 attend for
some reason - and before that
stretched the years of the war and
the time that President Wilson
was ill-and this time they were
lust tstarting off for little holi-
day visit with Senator Walter
Edge at Seaview Club, down near
Atlantic City.
The plan seemed to be TO stay
until this evening or possibly to-
morrow, putting in long. happy
Saturday on the links. It's quite a
large party, men and women, but
with men rather predominating.
