CHANGE OF HEART.


 News comes from Washington that President Poincarc's insisterce upon his stand that no reduction in the sum of German separations will be allowed, has aroused fears in high quarters in Washington that plans for the proposed inquiry by a con- mittee of experts, including an Amer ican, may be upset. This change from the feeling few days ago, namely that there was nothing in Poincare's former speech that should cause discourag cement, is attributed to the reiteration by Peincare at Meyers yesterday of such conditions.
 If the reported change of heart at Washington has come. it is not be- cause of anything new in Premier Toincarc's Movers speech, for he said nothing now. If thorc is now danger that the plan may hc upset" thcrc was the same danger before he made that speech. His first limitations were the same as those reiterated yesterday and any understanding mind could see. even before tho speech of yesterday that an insist cnce upon the conditions he proposed would be as embarrassing as would be tho insistence on the conditions as dc1ned in his speech of yesterday
 But it is possible, nevertheless. that there has come at Washington 2 change Of heart. It is possible that President Coolidge is not as cheerful over the outlook as hc was whon France accepted tho plan. But tho reason for this change may not bo found in the &cvcrs speech, Such reason, very likely. is to be found in Washington itself and in tho various communications sent to tho White House or carried there and spoken by word Of mouth
 When tho ohiectors 10 the United States participation in discussion Of European matters lack in numbers they mako m in yehemence. Sen ator Mccormick. of Illinois, appears today as the most ou'spokcn Of the opposition 10 such discussion. Ills Of France a few days ago could scarcely have been more . severe. There are others who stand 1. with him, and while at first they re- maincd silent if is quite probable . that by this time they have brought 1 all their influence 10 bear upon the ! administration 10 influence tt to do ! nothing that will possibly bring criti. cism on the administration 1T the should not turn out as well as expected. The same old pol- icy Of doing nothing and just wait ing to sec" is being urged Tho Meyers speech Of Premier poincaro may be used as an excuse, that is all.
 The great good that would come from the conference would he the uniting Of the allies and the moral strength tho participation or an American in the barley would give the committees recommendations CT findings. It would be no more than an advisory committee, as insisted upon. The reparations commission could accept it even if it did recom- mend reduction Of the separations amount. if such acceptance were by 1 unanimous vote. And against such iction, favored by public sentiment, France would not be apt 10 stand. Public world opinion is the greatest 1f ali forces. This force would bc behind such committee and the rcpa- -ations commission were 1t 10 adopt he committees recommendations.

principal proposals, as follows:
Adjusted compensation for all for
mer soldiers, sailors and marines.
Creation of a standing committee
In the house Of representatives to
handle only veteran legislation.
Retirement privileges for disabled
emergency army officers with the same

Of congress.
Further liberalization Of the war risk
insurance act to extend the period Of
service origin of tuberculosis from
tnfee to five years.
Enactment Of a universal draft law
by which the President, in the event Of
war, would be empowered to draft cap
ital, labor, industry, and transporta-
ton, as well as man power.
Adoption by congress of a perma-
nent immigration policy, based on re-
striction and selection, although the
Legion may insist on total exclusion
of immigrants for five years until thor
ough characterization of those now in
this country has resulted.
Authorization of an archives build
ing in which to preserve war records
now housed in buildings which are not
freproof.
Distribution of captured and sur
rendered war trophies among the va

DARLINGTON OF THE WEST"
Cemetery for Ten Thousand Veterans
and Members of Their Families,
Opened in California.

"The Arlington of the West" Gem
etery for ten thousand veterans of the
World war and their families, has
been formally opened by the Amer
lean Legion at Glendale, California.
The American Legion plot in the
memorial park is considered a great
achievement for the Legion in the
West, for i'll future years there will
be concentrated the resting places of
thousands Of veterans of the recent
war, a project second only to the gov
ernmental cemetery near Washington.
AT the formal ceremony which
opened the park practically every per-
son of southern California who had
relatives in the World war was in at
tendance, and prominent citizens from
all over the country joined in the
dedicatory service. One of the speak
ers was Governor James G. Scrug-
ham of Nevada, past national vice
commander of the American Legion,
said to have been the first Legionnaire
to have ever been elected to the gov.
ernorship Of state. Governor Rich
ardson of California and Congress-
man WAGER Lineberger of San Fran
cisco, together with many prominent
Legionnaires, were in attendance.
Full military honors were accorded
the remains of seventeen World war
veterans, the first to be buried in the
Legion plot. These bodies were in-
tered with special symbolic ceremony
prepared for the occasion
The memorial park is beautifully To-
Gated and is accessible by splendid

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
ats remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
go many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applications
are declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease. DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is on sale at all drug stores in bottles
of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
hilmer & Co., Binghamton, n Y, for

ALASKA CEMETERY IN ORDER
American Legion Members of Sitka
Post Restore Long Deserted
Graves of Soldiers.

When a correspondence with officials
in Washington brought no results,
American Legion members in far-off
Sitka, Alaska, restored a military
cemetery in which were buried a num-
Der of American marines, who had died
there in service during and following
the gold stampede in 1898.
The place of burial which was des-
lgnated as a national military and
naval cemetery had been neglected
since 1912. 1t was overgrown with
weeds and the grave markers were
blackened and obliterated.
Accommodating supply Of rakes,
axes, saws and picks the Legion men
one evening gathered at the cemetery
to restore order to the chaos. The
work continued several nights. Mem
bers of the American Legion auxiliary
served sandwiches and coffee to the
Legionnaires and to the townspeople
who began to join in the undertaking
as 1t progressed. At length fair SEM
blance of order was established.
When the job was over the veterans
did pot cease activities until they had
induced the surgeon general of the
navy to authorize an expenditure Of
1000 for the upkeep of the cemetery.
The governor of Alaska Immediately
appointed the Sitka post of the Legion
