Lima Appears to Have Ac-

Despite further advices from the
Lima foreign office, Peru's attitude to-
ward the Tacna-Arica compromise
proposed by the United States re-
manned today the big question mark
Of the Chilean-Peruvian conference.
The latest stand of the Lima gov
eminent is understood to have been
outlined in cablegram received by
the Peruvian delegation yesterday.
but it was indicated that the message
fell short of a definite verdict either
for or against acceptance of the
American plan
Peruvians Withhold Comment.
The Peruvian delegates declined to
talk about the communication, or even
To confirm that it was interpreted as
an actual reply to the suggestion of
the United States. Hitherto it had
been the belief in conference circles
that the Peruvian government was
faced with a definite choice between
fiat acceptance or rejection. but there
we're indications that instead of TAX
ing the responsibility of such a choice
the Lima officials had decided on ac-
ceptance with i reservation.
1t would be no surprise in we'll
Informed circles here if the clear
Gut issue of acceptance or rejection
Hgain were put before the Lima gov
eminent. since the ChileanS do not
appear disposed to accede to material
modification of the formula as it
originally was presented by Secre-
tary Hughes and accepted by Chile.
May Resume Conference.
Meantime, it was indicated that
the latest views o. ieru probably
would be communicated to the state
Department within the next day or
Two and that "a resumption of joint
conference sessions might follow.
should 1T appear that a definite basis
OF discussion had been established.
Because of the continued unCer-
talnty over Peru's position, hopes of
ending the conference this week have
disappeared and some observers are
predicting two or three more weeks

FIND ONLY SPECIMENS
IN WORLD OF CLOTHES
MEN MORE 600 YEARS AGO

By the Associated Press.
COPENHAGEN, June 17.-Men's
costumes of the thirteenth and
fourteenth centuries have been
found in Greenland. They are in
an excellent state of preservation
and resemble the clothes worn by
Dante in the published pictures of
the Italian poet. They are not yet
open to public view, but may be
exhibited at some future date.
These interesting finds were
made by DR.. Noerlund. Danish
scientist, while eXcavating' in an
cient burial grounds in the south
western part of Greenland. They
are the only existing specimens in
the world of garments worn by
men in the thirteenth and four
teenth centuries. Being deposited
in the frozen earth for about 600
years has preserved them from
destruction by moth and age. The
garments are now in Copenhagen
and deposited in the Danish col
lection in the museum housed in
the Prinsen's palace.
DIR. Noerlund has found also
several old wooden crosses in the
frozen earth. They are covered
with inscriptions in the Gothic
rune script and are considered by
scientists to be of great historic
value.

It has been suggested that the sites be named after some of the important battle scenes of the war, such as Chateau Thierry, Beleau Woods, St. Mihiel, The Argonne and others. How ever, some fighters object that their various wounds and ailments are suf- fcient reminders of their experiences.

CONFUSING COMMENT

Senator La Toilette declares that the decision of the supreme court in the Coronado Coal case, holding that labor unions may be sued, is the most ominous in what 1t foreshadows for the future of union labor in this country" True statement Senator II toreshadows steps 10 prevent union labor, through strikes from doing ac- tual damage to property of others, tangible and intangible, and escaping financial liability for such damage. It foreshadows the holding of unions re- sponsible for their acts, just as they are protected against harm from wrong done them by others.
 The Senator's other statements are irreconcilable, if he is quoted cor rectly He is quoted as saying that the opinion was significant because of what the court says on questions not involved in the case rather than because of anything that is actually decided" and that the court went out of it's way to change the law as it had existed in the United States since the beginning of the government. that nnincorporated associations. such as are involved here, could not be sued IS an entity"
 Does not the Senator from Wis eonsin know that the court in de cision cannot make law.or change law on any matter not necessary to a de- eision of the case before it? Anything the court may write or say which need 1ot have been written or said or con- sidered in making the decision, is mere dicta, or super1uous matter. and leed not be considered as a precedent in the decision of future cases

SWIMMING

The news dispatch to the effect that the American soldiers who wish to re- main with the occupation troops in Germany must prove their ability as swimmers, calls attentions to the value of learning to swim.
 The swimming season is at hand The summer often passes and there is little to show in the way of ac- compishment. Perhaps d joyous va cation has left pleasant memories perhaps a feeling of something diff ferent. Seldom is it that one may say This thing l have to show for the glorious warm weather season." No matter how well one has worked, there is always the thought that work may be done in winter as well as sum mer or better. No matter how pleas ant the days have been in many ways there is always the thought that pleasant days come in wintep as well as summer.
 The summer is one of the talents given to us to make use of. Of course one may learn to swim in winter, in- doors. as well as in the summer But for the great majority of people this opportunity does not come. One way to make use of this talent" which should not be buried in a napkin"-

A PRACTICAL POINT

There is something besides the sen mark of Secretary of Agriculture Wal lace when he was driven, according to ancient custom in, horse drawn vehicle, to the White House. He was accompanied by his seven-year- old grandson.
 That is the first time this boy ever rode behind a horse" said the Score tary, inferring of course, that the little man had usually travelled in street cars or automobiles
 The expression used to be common, years ago: That is the first time I ever rode in an automobile" It is heard sometimes today, but not often. Rarely indeed are the words uttered by boys or girls or young people There is nothing especially remarka- be about this fact. It is merely be- cause the automobile has taken the place of the horse drawn vehicle and the gas engine has become the chief motive power instead of the horse.
 But how about the children now growing up-the children accustomed to ride in automobiles, when they ride it all?
 One of the most common difficult ties middle-aged and older people have to surmount today is that Of getting accustome to changed condi- tions, new viewpoints on life. Those conditions in the practical matters of life are changing much more rapidly than formerly. The things to which the children of today are becoming accustomed will be out of date when they are in middle life, The manner of thinking, the standards of today will change as the present day stand ards are the result of d departure from old standards, old ways of think ing
 Because the children of the past were not trained to understand that standards and manners of thought and action would change with the years, the people of middle life to- day are handicapped in accepting those new conditions.
 The children of today should be lib- orally educated to understand that the habits and thoughts of today have changed from those of the past, and will change in future. If this is done. when those children and young people reach middle age they will be partially prepared for d new view point and will be ready to see condi- tions then as the younger generation then will see them. Educate the young to live with open mind.

GRAVES OF VETERANS

The plan of the American Legion graves of veterans of the world war is thoroughly to be commented. The qualification that such markers will not be so placed unless the request for them is made by the nearest kin of the dead service man. is proper.
 The grave of every man who fought for his country should be spot inspiring respect of all who pass that way. But primarily it should be held sacred in it's manner of treatment subject to the wishes of those to whom, through blood, the man who is buried there was most dear.
 It would seem that the relatives and friends of the local boys who died in the war would experience a feel ing of quiet satisfaction that his for mer comrades stand ready and are able now to place upon their graves the stamp of service and sacrifice. Whatever may happen to those rela- lives and friends the placing of such marker will assure that the mans memory will be honored as long as human foresight may plan, Each year, when the day comes for acknowledg ing again the debt the country owes to those who gave all they had, life, for their country, those graves which bear this stamp of honor won, duty done, will be touched with under standing hands-will be the objects of understanding tribute.
 It is hoped that the relatives and friends of the men who died in the war and who are buried in this city will communicate with the Eddy Glover post. American Legion. care The Herald office, thus giving the for mer comrades of those men who are earthly comrades no more the chance to place a permanent memorial of their loyalty and respect on the graves of the men memory of whom should never fade.

POLITICAL RFPRISALS

The practice of economy in the ~ity government is to be praised, where that economy IS the result Of care ful thought and is inspired by de sire to economize, and by nothing else. Any body of men, attempting to get back" at a successful office holder of the opposite political faith, under the guise of economy, are to be criticized adversely, just as any office holder, especially the Mayor, should be critl- cized for using his office to reward political helpers.
 The attitude Of Mayor Paonessa in dicates his intention to economize in the city government at every possible point It IS seemly and proper for the republican majority in the common council to cooperate with him in his attempt to run the city as inexpensive y as possible. The Mayor should be careful, however, that his economical policy does not gain for this city deserved reputation for parsimony The common council is check upon him to a certain degree in this re gard.
 On the other hand the common council should not go on the theory ~Well, he wants economy; let's give it to him." and, with sneering smile, overdo the policy of economy that the Mayor breaches.
 Especially careful should the coun- cil be not to vent its feeling on need ed employe Mayor Curtis did not seem to need d $500 secretary. Per haps the affairs of the city would have been conducted more efficiently if he had had such a secretary; perhaps not Little complaint was ever heard that there was delay in the Mayor s office.
 s1f however, Mayor Paonessa feels he needs a clerk it would seem rather an undignifed thing for the common council to do to refuse to allow him such secretary. On the other hand If the common council considers New Britain a city of such prominence that it should be able to afford to send it's Chief of Police to convention of Chiefs, it would seem that the Mayor, in view of the especial circumstances of this case, the personality of Chief Rawlings, and the situation in regard to police affairs at the moment, would not have blocked the plan to send him to that convention.
 Certainly it is time for little broad -mindedness in city affairs. Practice economy, but let it not be a cloak for pettiness.
