Politicians must reckon with the

Women are the practical sex. Their
traditional occupations have made
them so. Houses are not kept nor

practical kind of common sense, ard
It's exactly that kind of sense the
woman voter brings to politics. She
selects her candidate precilesly as
she selects the house she is to move
into. The fret-work on the front
porch is not nearly so important as
the condition of the furnace and the
kitchen range.
Women feel that the only way to
find out is to ask questions. That

Commenting on the present school
system. Commissioner Tigert said.
Washington has one of the worst
school systems of any large city
in the United States. 1t is caused
by the complications under which
the schools function. The power
of reducing the school budget
should be removed from the District
Commissioners and the Board of

Zion City Overseer Calls Sir

CHICAGO. May 26-Wilbur Glenn

of the devil'' and denounced him as
the ''betrayer of millions of souls who
would be damned because they believe
in his demoniacal rot" ASK Conan
Doyle What about the divinity of
Jesus Christ? What about the blood
swer you will get" Voliva declared
CONAN Doyle and all his ilk are
described in the prophecy given
through Paul That In the latter time
some shall depart from the faith. Civ
ing heed to seducing spirits and doc
trines Of demons That is what the
people are doing today. The rise OF
spiritualism is one of the signs that
the dispensation is closing.
Conan Doyle says that he has a
photograph of a mans soul as it left
his body He is a liar! He has
nothing of the kind! These people al
ways work in the dark, you will
notice-always in a dark room.
"AII that he is giving the people is

nothing else. He has not talked to
any man or woman who has lived on
this earth. The silly rot is abso-
lutely in contradiction to the plain
word of God"
Sir Arthur was shown the remarks
of the Zion overseer and reiterated
all of his former statements about his

Negotiations.

NEW YORK. May 26.-Anthracite
mine workers and operators ap-
parently are once more deadlocked
over the proposed wage scale with
the operators declaration that they
will not recede an inch from their
original proposals calling for a 81
per cent wage reduction.
That proposal" the operators
announced late today. was sub
mitted after most careful analysis
of the situation. 1t is not subject
to change, unless 1t can be shown
it was wrong in its premise and
conclusions. The miners reply
does not attempt to challenge our
statement of facts. We cannot
grant an increase in wages. We
cannot agree to a maintenance of
present wages. We will insist on a
reduction approximating that laid
down in our offer"
Following this statement, S. d.
Warmer. chairman of the cpCra-
tors committee. charged that the
miners were brushing aside the ec-
onomic situation
AT our meeting today" he said.

DEPUTY DEMANDS
EXILE OF BRAND
Accused of Breaking Up
Genoa Farley, Poincare
Passes Lie.

PARIS, May 26.-Premier Poincsre
in an extremely belIigerent mood.
weathered the third day of the at
tack on his foreign policy In noisy
and exciting session of the chamber
during which the saber was ratified
several times for Germany's benefit
Premier Poincare himself led the
extremists who were advocating
strong-arm policy toward Germany.
He brought the debate to climax
by waiting until the demand had
been made for an advance into the
Ruhr in event Germany failed to
meet the requirements laid down by
the reparations commission.
The premier wound up the ses-
sion in dramatic style by declar-
ing:
1t is insufficient to invoke Ger
many's good will. We must still con-
tinue to show her that II she refuses
we have the means of forcing her"
PoIncare Passes Lie.
This war-like blast, coming at the
end OF a fiery session during which
the deputies were hurting defies

one excited member even demand
ing the exile of former Premier
Briand-gave the foreign. bankers
assembled here to work out ar
rangements for a loan to help Ger
many get on her feet their first real
chance to see the French in action.
Some observers wondered how the
uncompromising words of Premier
Poincare would strike the bank
ers. who appear to be seeking COL
lection rather than armed advances
at this time.
Another episode occurred when
Fabre, who was an undersecretary
in Clemenceau's cabinet. accused Pre-
mier Poincare of desiring to break
up the Genoa conference. The pre-
mier. restraining himself within the
rules of the chamber. politely. but
promptly. passed the lie.

Poincare to treat BRAND as Clemen-

mier. who was sentenced to tech
nical exile during the war for dis
loyalty BRAND who was present,
shrugged his shoulders eIoquently,
but said nothing. The session was
one OF the noisest in recent months
President Peret often was compelled
to threaten suspension of the
session unless order was restored.
Poincare's warning to Germany
drew strong applause to right and
center. but the extreme left. as ex-
pected. protested. Daudet led the
demand for the occupation Of the

opposition on this question as well

French Politicians Delay
Agreement on Reparations
By MARK SULLIVAN.

Several straws in the winds of the
news suggest that something may
be stirring shortly which may be
Of the highest Importance to the
world. A little while ago the
American government sent notes to
all the European governments who
owe money to America asking them
In a polite way to come around and
do something about IL. Among the
replies received and actions taken
in response to this the French an
nounced they had appointed a finan-
cial agent who would sail for Amer
lea on June Is. This week. how
ever, II is announced that the sail
Ing will be deferred.
Debt to L. s. Must Wait.
The significance of this lies in the
possibility of some early action
about the German reparations. &c
man reparations is the center OF
every consideration about the debts
due America from Europe and about
everything else in the world OF
private and public business an
finance. The French have always
intended to say. and still intend
to say. that they can't pay America
any money or make any definite
promise of future payments until
they know what they are going
to get out of Germany. The
amount of the German repsrations
Is the insuperable obstacle to
American collection of the money
and to the resumption OF anything
else in the worlds business that
Is normal or useful.
Important to America.
The fixing of the German repara-
tions is more Important than any
thing else in th> economic world. 1t
Is as important or more important,
to America than to any other peo-
pie. But Congress. in its jealousy
of the President and Secretary of
state. has forbidden them to take
any official step to solve the Ger
man reparations problem without
the approval of Congress. 1t has
been clear that Harding is keenly
the German reparations, and equally
aware that his hands are tied by
Congress. In this state of affairs
the leading private banker in
America, J. P. Morgan. has gone to
Paris. and is aDw sitting in a con-
ference of bankers considering a
German loan Mr.. Morgan is acting
unofhcially. but any one familiar
with the war of such things must
know that Mr.. Morgan would not do
what he Is now doing without some
sort of Informal sanction from his
government.
