LOOKING BACK.

Interesting Is the comment of for mer Secretary of Navy Daniels on the 'scrapping" of the great capital ships. After mentioning the fact that 1t is a little pathetic to sec plans made to scrap ships he and others worked for for six years, but acknowledging that we can afford to make the sacrifice If it will bring world peace, he says: Tn the very bill that authorized the building of those dreadnoughts and appropriated the money foE them there was a clause that if an agree ment could be had by the navy na- tions to stop competitive building the ships were not to be built. so the ac- ton the other day was foresecn by Mir. Wilson and his compatriots, and they will now carry out policy which we had advanced in 1916. At that time, during the war, it was impossible to have conference with other nations"
 While it is not remembered that emphasis was laid in 1916 on this clause of the bill cited by MT. Daniels, and while no plan for disarmament conference is recalled as having been mentioned at that time, nevertheless it is not surprising that here again is found indication that some Of the thunder of the present conference is stolen thunder. coming from ideals and ideas of a former administrations
 It is not to be doubted that this conference under the Harding admin istration has been conducted in q manner quite different from one which might have been held while former President Wilson was in office. The delegates and the Secretary of State have had far more opportunity to exert their individual influence and advocate those things which they themselves conceived. They have found sympathetic co-opcration in the
 
 White House--an almost too- great to let them have their own WAy---that would not have been pres ent had Mir. Wilson been president.
 Nevertheless it is not too broad a statement to make to declare that the influence H Of the Wilson administra- tion and the thinssdor which it stood in the matter of ouT5relations to other inspired by the then Presi- dent, was the impelling motive for calling this conference If there never | had been a League of Nations ideal.( there would have been, at this time, | no disarmament conference.

WOMEN'S WORK.

Of course everyone knew that there were more women today doing work formerly considered essentially mans than there were ten or a dozen years ago. The exact figures, however, startle. On the other hand there are fewer women doing what has always been considered women's work than there were ten years ago. As such work has to be done the natural con- clusion is that men are doing it men or machinery Take your choice,
 Taking the census figures in New
 York state, for instance, it is seen that there are fewer music teachers among women, fewer teachers in other lines, fewer telephone operators and private laundresses. There are hardly half as many seamstresses and dressmakers among the women as in 1910.
 The number of women stenogra- phers and typists many of whom used to be men, have more than doubled; there are more than three times as many women clerks, not in stores, and nearly twice as many women book keepers, cashiers and accountants as there were ten years ago Ten years ago there were no policewomen; there are 41 now. There were 514 public porters in 1910; there are $40 now.
 Summarizing the facts there has been an increase of more than 50,000 women in New York State occupied in work which brings financial re- turps.
 AS the increase keeps on, as more and more women are asserting their independence every day, the wonder comes what will become of the men eventually? This gain in women's working strength may not be laid en- tirely to gain in population It may not be laid to the opening of new lines of endeavor for everyone, men and women The women have en- tered, more and more, the fields for merly filled by men, and the men have either made new work for them selves or given up portions of their old work, allowing women to do it. and they themselves concentrating on one or more special branches Of that work.
 American labor objects 10 unlimited Taborers feel the for piyners take their jobs from them, for lower wages. Men may <, ap immigration by law. Will men object to the influx Of women into their domains when if comes to the ooint that men cannot find a place in hat field? l. is dficul ito see, us have the vote. how they could ,top this sort of immigration" Nor will wise men desire to stop 1t by law. if is, possible that women themselves, not collectively, will gradually decide they arc better suited 0 work they can do so much better

New Britain herald., 1922-02-07

forgettuness ot the danger of human falibility, of national inclination 10
 resort, under pressure, 10 sellishncss,
 There are two paragraphs of Pres ident Ilarding's speech which are most agnihcant.
 Since this conference of nations has
 pointed with unanimity to the way of peace today like conferences in the fn- turc, under appropriate conditions and
 with aims both well conceived and definite, may illuminate the highways and byways of human activity"
 Again President Harding has indi- cated his belief in future conferences. Forgetting the fact that the league idea is here involved, forgetting that q Woodrow Wilson principle has found its way again Into the words of q Republican President, there should be satisfaction that President Harding has not dropped this main idea of the closer association Of the United States with other nations in spite of the re- buffs he has received In days past when he indicated this to be his atti- tude. It is only to be hoped that he will not allow himself to be practically squelched as he has been following similar indications in the past by those who either fear honestly for the fu- ture of this country were we to join with other nations in providing for permanent peace, or who fear for their own political futures if the party of which they are members contenances such step. In this regard, especially, we long for force in the President.
 Almost at the first of President Hardings speech he uttered words which would have closed it tittingly The contain the essence of the whole matter. In them may be found the real truth as to whether or not the conference, generations hence, will be success.
 ~ the faith pledged here to- day" said the President, Kept in na tional honor, will mark the beginning or new and better epoch in human progress"
 Faith pledged kept in ma tional honor." Therein lies the test. If reliance may be placed on national honor of all nations all the enthusi- asm for the work of the conference Is justified. If the national honor of all nations will command the obedi- ance to the spirit as well as the letter of the law of the treaties compacts, agreements made, we have seen in- 1eed, an "epoch in human progress.
 If national honor is disregarded, the achievements of the conference will | De but hollow things; the words of | praise for the work done, but sound- | ng syAables.
 Upon the degree to which national honor is raised will depend the placel in history the abors of the conferencel will take-will depend the future wei fare of humanity as it is affected by wars.
