WILSON'S LEADER
RAPS CLEMENCEAU
IN SENATE DEBATE
UTTERANCES OF FRENCHMAN
COME UNDER FIRE -NEBRAS-
KA AIMS SHAFT AT FRANCE.

Washington, Nov. 24.-The utter
ances in this country of former Pre-
mier Clemenceau of France came I'M
der fire on the floor of the senate to-
day in a debate reviving many of the
issues Of the Versailles treaty fight
and covering many more recent prob
lens of international relationship.
Discussion of the mission of the
French war time premier to America
was begun by Senator Hitchcock of
Nebraska, ranking Democrat Of the
foreign relations committee and the
Wilson administration leader during
the treaty debate, with a speech de-
claring that Clemenceau's attitude
against Germany had been such as to
detract somewhat from the effective
ness of his appeals to the American
people.
"While Clemenceau has not been
known as an extreme militarist, as
compared with Poincare and some
other statesmen" said Senator Hitch
cock, she has established a reputa-
ton for representing an entirely
harsh policy toward Germany"
The Nebraska senator added that
his purpose was not so much to criti-
cize Clemenceau but rather the policy
of the French government toward Ger
many. He said America was honored
by the former premier's visit and OBJ
served that Clemenceau had invited
criticism Of his remarks.
Welcomes Criticism
New York, Nov 24.-As Georges
Clemenceau left for Boston today in
Charles NJ. Schwab's private car he
said he welcomed criticism of his
speeches by members of congress.
"That's a good" Clemenceau said
when he read the morning paper ac-
counts of what congressman were say
ing. ''That's what I came to America
for, to invite diseussion-4 That's my
idea of democratic free speech. It is
what I found when I came here more
than so years ago and | certainly did
not expect any change
In taking leave of Charles Dana
Gibson, who guest he has been here,

erous. You are true friends and my
friends forever Often | shall cross

at about 3 per cent ito pool their
grain, haul their wheat into the gov
eminent elevators and put it on the
market, when there is a demand for
it. Out of that 8 per cent the farm
ers are paying the expense of print
ing the money and the balance goes
into. a sinking fund to retire the
bonds within about 80 years. That
is what I call Government Banking
HOW TO OPERATE
1T appears to me that the merch-
ants, bankers and farmers of the
United States would all be glad to
have our government take over the
banking system to be operated
through the postofice. If we could
get money at 8 per cent on our real
estate loans to pay off the bankers
and loan companies, their troubles
would bee with. They could re-
tire for the rest of their lives, or en-
gage in some other business. If some
ing is not done soon, it will only be
a short time when the bankers and
will be in the same condi-
ton as the farmers are in today"

received temporary relief. After re-
turning here last fall he found it
necessary to return east After re-
turning to Minneapolis he was not
able to leave his bed, until death came
and summoned him to the great be-
yond. Harry was man among men
and liked by his fellow men who
grieve to hae such an honorable char
acter taken from their midst.
Besides his wife he leaves to mourn
his loss, his mother, one brother of
Minneapolis, and his sister, Mrs. Allie
Pfieffer of Redstone.
Funeral services were held from
ST. Marks Episcopal chapel of Min

FIRST FIGHT IN
BRITISH HOUSE
UNEMPLOYMENT WILL BE THE
GREATEST ISSUE BEFORE PAR
LAMENT.

London, Nov. 26.-The first division
in the new house of commons which
occurred this afternoon, was carried
by the government by a majority of
103 against the Laborite opposition.
London, Nov. 24-The opening of
the business session of parliament
Thursday quickly revealed what is
likely to be the paramount question
in both houses, apart from Irish leg
islation, for which the session was es-
pecially called. The keynote of this
was struck in the kings speech-un-
employment.
Before the new parliament really
settled down to it's duties, it became
evident that the governments hope
of limiting the discussion to the Irish
bill would be disappointed. Labor,
through the mouth of it's new parlia-
mentary leader, J. Ramsey MacDon-
aid, Immediately fastened onto the
governmental confession in the kings
speech that it has no new policy with
respect to this important question, but
the late coalition governments pro-
posed remedies.
The tenor of the opposition speeches
In the debate on the address was to
press the prime minister to receive an
unemployed" deputatfon. This, how
ever, Premier Bonar Law seems de-
termined not to do. In a further re-
ply to renewed request by the de-
putation for a interview last night he
refused again on the same ground,
namely that orderly administration
will become impossible if every group
desiring to raise departmental ques-
ton ignores the responsible minister.
Lord Birkenhead in the house of
lords referred to the extreme gravity
of the unemployment question, for
which no statesman yet had devised a
remedy. This may, perhaps, be taken
as an indication Of the line which
criticism from the Lloyd George party
will follow.

Clerk Held as Woman, 81,
Dies From Strychnine
Pharmacist Is Charged With
Using Poison Not Called
For i'm Prescription

Mrs. Anna Ganz, eighty-seven years
old, OF II West Olive Street, Long
Beach, Long Island, died yesterday
morning in convulsions soon after she
had taken a capsule ssid to have con-
tanned strychnine.
Samuel Berkowitz, a clerk in the
drug store of Berner N. Giger, who had
filled the prescription for the medicine,
was held later in $4,000 bail by Judge
Smith in the Nassau County Court at
Mineola. He pleaded not guilty and
at the same time pleaded not guilty to
an indictment Brought against him
several days ago, charging him with
Illegally possessing and selling liquor.
An autopsy performed by DR.. A. D.
Jaques, of Lynbrook, at the order of
District Attorney Weeks, showed the
presence of the poison in the woman's S
stomach. The prescription, made out
by DR.. A. L. Higgins, was plainly writ
ten, according to DIR. Jaques, and called
for another drug of a yellowish brown
color, while strychnine is white. He
declared that the capsules containe d
one and half grains of strychnine
and that one-haf grain is enough to
kill instantly.
Later Dr. Reiss, the health officer at
Long Beach, appeared in the court at
Mineola and said that in his opinion
the writing on the prescription had not
been sufficiently plain. At frst glance,
he said, he thought the word was
strychnine because the drug called for
is somewhat similar in spelling.
