MIR. HUGHES SUNK THE SHIP.

If there still exists in this country
critics of the conference system org
ina:e fy the United States, they may
get new proof of its value by taking a
short, harp look at TIE nice Ii tie
wrangle now going on between the
crcmiers of Britain and France
Fremieh Poincare, it may be rene n
bered, said he would return to tie
n;:eWriting, backstairs secret dipID-
macy. Premier George remarked
bluntly that you can't argue with a
dispatch, and that the Conference was
the best road to real accord.
Now the situation is simply this NJ.
Poincare is trying to compel Mr..
George to argue certain issues pri-
vately first and to make certain
promises thereon, while Mr.. George
is trying to invigle M. Poincare to the
Genoa conference table, where these
matters may be discussed in the open.
M. Poincare wrote bitterly to Mr.
George, setting forth the points he
wanted settled, and Mr.. George replied
to NJ. Poincare that it was seasonable
weather for the time of year and he
hopes to see him at Genoa. NJ. Pom
care shouts across the channel de-
manding reply to his "points," and
Mr.. George says he can't find any
points but hopes to see him at Genoa.
Then NJ. Poincare tells the French
press he would prefer to see Mr.
George somewhere else first.
This is the old-fashioned dispatch
and secret diplomacy method. It's net
result in this case to date is nil. In
less time Mr.. Hughes had sunk more
ships than all the admirals of recorded
history, by using the conference meth

THE BUSINESS WORLD is AWAK-
ENING.

And now we find the retail cloth
iers awakening to the fact that coun
try America is the real America and
must be recognized. What changes
have taken place in the business world
mentality when the National Clothiers
Association gravely expresses itself
as follows to the Interstate Commerce
Commission:
eve believe that this is not the
time for a horizontal reduction in all
freight rates. We believe instead that
all reductions possible at this time
should be centered on farm products,
farm machinery, iron and steel, coal
and such basic commodities. We be-
lieve with substantial reductions in
basic commodities rates, return to
normal conditions will be fastened"
This is flat recognition of the fact
that all industries are dependent on
agriculture. Tariff tinkerers, indus
trial political economists, scientific
theorists whose fallacies have swayed
the world so long, coupled with the
selfish butchers, bakers and candle
stick makers of American industry
have now come to see that they have
been mistaken in the animal they
have been prodding so long, and that
it is their own OK that has been gored
nigh unto death

SCIENCE OF MAGNANIMITY,

A farmer sold his place and bought
a farm in another county, because his
neighbors were so mean. With his
family and his furniture and his cattle
on the road, he stopped at a spring
ne1r where lived an old fellow who
should have been teaching philosophy
but who, on account of a lack of edu-
cation, had missed his calling. This
farmer told the old philosopher how
mean his neighbors were and hoped
he would never see them again. The
old philosopher said, "They are just
as bad or worse where you are going"
And they were.
Soon after that another farmer, who
was moving, stopped and told the old
philosopher that the only reason he
was moving was to get near better
school and that it nearly broke his
heart to leave his neighbors as they
were such good neighbors. The old
philosopher said, "You will find them
just as good and as kind where you
are going" And he did.
You have perhaps heard of the fell
low who died in the prime of his life
of spite which had backed up and
sOured in his system A neighbor of
his, an old fellow who could generally
say something good of every man,
after trying bis level best to think Of
something kind about him, said: "He
was not as mean all the time as he

WOMAN'S RIGHT TO VOTE
UPHELD BY HIGH COURT
Supreme Court DismisSss Balti-
more Appeal In Brief
Opinion

The woman suffrage or Nineteenth
Amendment was declared constitu-
tional by the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court dismissed for
want of jurisdiction the suit brot by
Charles S. Fairchild of New York,
who sought to challenge the consti-
tutionality of the amendment. The
opinion of the court was delivered by
Justice Brandeis.
The woman suffrage or Nineteenth
Amendment of the Constitution was
challenged in the Supreme Court in
proceedings instituted by Charles S.
Fairchild of New York, for himself
and in behalf of the American Con-
stitutional League, to enjoin the Sec
rotary of State from issuing and the
Attorney General from enforcing a
proclamation declaring the ratifca-
ton of the amendment, and by Oscar
Lesser and other citizens of Maryland,
constituting on organization known as
the Maryland League for State De-
Tense" The former proceedings were
based on the ground that the amend
ment had not been valiily adopted
and the latter that the amendment
was unconstitutional
The Federal courts in the District
of Columbia and the State courts in
Maryland, where the cases, respec-
lively, were originally brought, ruled
against the objections to the amend.
ment
In the oral arguments in the Su-
preme Court in the Fairchild case,
the Government contended that the
Secretary of State having issued the
ratification proclamation there was
nothing to restrain and that the case,
therefore, became moot, not present
ing a controversy for judicial deci-
sion.
In the Lesser case, the Government
acknowledged that the proceedings
had been instituted by voters who had
sufficient interest to warrant their
presence in court, but that the issue
raised was political, one for decision
by Congress or for settlement in some
other avenue than by adjudication in
the courts.
While the State Of Maryland had
refused to ratify the amendment, it
was pointed out the State also re-
fused to question its constitutionality.
"The people were not setting up
any pending agency for their own
destruction" the opponents contanded,
asserting that in limiting Federal jur-
isdiction the Sovereign people" did
not intend that their agents conduct
ing the Federal Government should
have the power to destroy them Fol
lowing this line of argument it was
argued that the people alone by
amendments to their State constitu-
tional convention called for the pur-
pose could extend or abridge their
sovereignty.
The power of Congress to propose
the amendment to the State Legisla-
lures for ratification was assailed by
its opponents on the ground that the
people reserved to themselves in their
State constitutions the right to reg
ulate suffrage, and that the FEEDER
al Government legally could not have
anything whatever to do with chang
ing the sovereign power" embodied
in suffrage qualifications.
