 The question involved is one of principle, and there is no reason why the relations between the allies should be affected. There should be no ques- tion of choosing btwee nthem."
 The French narrative, which lays some means of bringing Belgium into by both Lloyd George and Barthou through the talk, continues by saying that Barthou then suggested the way out of the difficulty was to devise some means of bringing Belgiu minto line with the other powers.
 Lloyd George answered:
 "A new formula is out of the ques- ton. Now that the document has been handed to the Russians, it is impos- sible for us to modify it. We must await the Russian answer"

Europeans like gress SOUP They like it as
well as Illinois farmers like to burn corn His
remark merely illustrates the ability of GER
tain type of mind to resist knowledge of the
workings of ordinary economic laws.
The farm conference has proceeded far
enough to give some idea of the way the dele
gates think. Henry Ford is hero to most
farmers. They want the government to accept
cheap nitrates. Farmers who have to pay one
bushel out of every three in freghts to get their
corn to the seaboard are angry over the 6 per
cent guaranty provisions OF the Esch- Cummins
railway act. 1t is pretty well understood that
what the farmer wants congress will try its
best to give him. 1t always does. 1t is one
of the anomalies of our political history that
group, that until recent years has been poorly
organized to voice its desires, has been able
to make congress jump through hoops.

Auto Trade Stability.

In recent years there has been tendency to
regard the condition of the automobile trade as
symptomatic of the general state of business.
During the past few months automobile stocks
have suffered seriously from the continuous
and general reductions in the price of cars
which were necessitated on the part of various
manufacturers by the competitive policy of
others.
The recent announcement that the Ford
company was to make another reduction was
received with dismay, but the subsequent ex-
PLANTATION that this cut would amount to only
few dollars on each car is now accepted as in
dcating that relative stability has about been
reached. In spite of the fears of manufactur-
ers concerning what is called "saturation" of
demand the prospect for 1922 now appears
reasonably bright Makers of some OF the
more popular cars have mapped out extensive
production programs. and the good earnings
reported by several concerns have led to dis
tinct advances in the prices OF stocks.

How Wrong Is Annei


Today, dear sisthern, one of our
readers, who prefers to be known
as ANNE" occupies this cart:
81 am a reader of your health
articles, and some 1 agree with,
and some 1 don't, and this letter is
about one of the articles l don't.
You printed a communication from
la young woman who had evidently
encountered some unhappiness in
life and who seemed to blame her
mother for not having instructed
her concerning sex hygiene and all
that sort of thing.
Nov, as far as I can see. all a
girl needs to know is the difference
between right and wrong, and she
will understand precisely what she
is doing. This seems to be your
strong point. 1t is also mine. Yet
/ oppose your ideas.
Il really do not see why any
young girl or any young boy should
be informed about such matters. 1t
does not concern them. When they
are about to marry, then will be
quite time enough.
MY nOIner never knew or taught
me such things, none of our moth
ers did, and yet we managed to get
along without it. What with your
advocating such instruction as this,
and the so-called birth control
movement, things are approaching
a scandalouS state.
II am not an old maid I am a
young woman &c years old, but for
the life of me l cannot agree with
you. The difference between right
and wrong is all that is necessary
to teach boys and girls.
ANNE"
Certainly that is sufficient. If
boys and girls were really trained
to understand, and persuaded by
precept and example to respect
what is right, the whole problem
would be settled. But the difficulty
about this noble plan is that boys
and girls learn so many things
away from home-and the things
they learn away from home are
generally poorly dressed up even il
they happen to be true, which they
seldom happen to be.
The question is clear enough for
the dullest understanding: Shall a
boys father see to it that his boy
learns what he should know, or
shall girls mother look to the
proper instruction of her daughter,
or shall the children be left to
