 Washington. Oct. B.. Objections raised by Senator John Sharpe Will liams. Democrat, of Mississippi, arc said to have been responsible for the failure of the Senate, ih the closing sessions of Congress, to con firm the nomination of Miss Lucille Atcherson, of Columbus, Ohio. as Americas first woman ever to be named for an important diplomatic post by the President. Miss Atcher- son had been nominated to be Sec retary of Embassy, fourth class.
 Miss Atchcrson had recently passed the civil service exam'na- tion for appointment to d high diplomatic position, and it was pre- dictcd that her appointment as one of the secretaries of the United States Embassy in France would fol low soon after the return of Secre- tary Hughes from Brazil.
 The Department of State ruled, with tho approval of President Harding, that women are eligible for leading positions in the Diplo- matic Service Miss Atcherson was the first woman to qualify under this ruling. The examination which she was obliged to take required a knowledge of international law and history and the ability to speak French fluently.
 Miss Atcherson is a college wom- an. She was active in the last years of the suffrage fight and was instru- mental in getting the municipal vote for the women oi Columbus. During the war she worked in her own city and later went abroad, serving under Anne Morgan in the interest of the work for devastated France. When Miss Morgan re- turned to America Miss Atcherson carried on her work.

The women handle the baskets of silk worms. casting the worms into great yats of boiling water, and it is up to them to wind the silk from the silkworms,~a in doing so their fingers and hands are burned and scalded.
 Tiny babies lie at the feet of many of the women. They are kept at their work so closely, however, that there is little time, to care for their little ones.
 The women carry their teapCts to and from the filiatures and bowls Of rice and chopstieks in their lunch baskets, although in a number of the filaturcs the women are able to purchase hot rice. Just now rice is very expensive, and the bowls grow smaller and smaller The rice and tea make up the mid day meal of the workers.

OVER DEBT REFUNDNC BILL

commission In conducting the refund
ing negotiations, Senator McCumber
said he could conceive OF situation
where 1t might be desirable to agree
with tho debtor nation to fix the in
terest rate on the bonds high enough
to cover during tho life of the bonds
the accumulated interest Such plan
was opposed by Senators simmons and
Lcrroot, Republicans of Wisconsin
Senator McCumber gave it as his
opinion that none of the proceeds from
the refunded foreign debt would be
available for the soldiers bonus until
within one year after July !. the date
on which Republican leaders have said
than the bonus would be made effec-
tive. He thought congress should pro-
vide some form OF special taxation TO
cover bonus payments for the year and
then authorize the sllc OF n sufficient
amount of tho bonds to take care OF
succeeding yearly bonus expenses il
the interest from the foreign debt
should not prove sufficient.
