SCHOOLS MAY TEACH FOREIGN
 LANGUAGES SAY COURTS.

With two dissenting votes, the Uni ted States Supreme Court has declar- ed unconstitutional the recently en- acted State statutes which would pro- hibit the teaching or use of foreign languages in all schools below eighth grade, on the ground that such laws would encroach upon the rights con- ferred by the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution which provides that no state shall deprive any per son of life, liberty or property with out due process of law"
 Among the states which passed laws held void are Iowa, Ohio and Nebraska. The agitation was an out growth of feeling engendered during the war when German propaganda was fostered and when institutions where German was taught-even the academies and universities-abando ed the practice.
 While. it is proper that children be brought up under strictly American influences; while there may be reas- enable differences of opinion as to the propriety of permitting the teaching of foreign tongues to pupils in lower grades; in spite of this it is difficult to follow the reasoning of the court that any person is deprived of his lib critics by such statutes without due process of law" It may be right in its conclusion but its logic seems Strai

THE COY MIR. FORD.

Despite his stereotyped assertion that he is not a candidate for the presidency, Mr. Ford's secretary has indicated that the auto magnate is not displeased over the endorsement by citizens of Georgia. Henry's presiden- tion boom, 1923 model, is as easily worked over as his cars. Nobody can take his denial seriously, and no one who keeps track of the trend of the times can fail to admit that he will be a strong contender against Mr. Harding.
 The Chicago Tribune quotes him as saying that he would not be a candi- date on the republican, the democrat ic or third party ticket, but as can didate on the independent Ford tick et The conclusion is that the aim of Mr. Ford is to throw the ultimate election of a president into the house of representatives.
 AS to whether this could be done or not is largely speculation. The elec- toral college contains 531 votes and to be elected a candidate must have majority, or at least 266 votes. If the candidates of the two major par ties should be almost equally divided, as they were when Wilson was re- elected in 1916, third party with considerable strength might be able to throw the election into the house.
 In 1912 Roosevelt, on a third party ticket, took nearly all the electoral

LIBERTY BONDS REACT
High Grade Rails and Industrials Are
.. Strong.

Copyright. by the San Antonio Light.
New York, Sept. 2S.-Reasonable
steadineSs in high grade rails and in
dustrials today was combined with a
reaction in United States government
bonds with the notable exception of
the third 4 LIS. In the case of the
4 LIS buying for the account of the
treasury was generally given as the
reason.
Specialists said the weakness of the
rest Of the list was more apparent
than real and in part seasonal. The
second and the fourth las sold be-
low 9S and the tax-exempt ) lbs
were persistently heavy. Nor was
there any explanation in the money
market for this condition. The out
look for money is in favor of firm
but not higher rates. The increases
in rediscounts shown in today's fed
eral reserve bank statement. have no
very great importance in view of the
high reserve ratio.
Baltimore & Ohio descriptions were
steady. but failed 10 maintain the re-
cent gains. St. Paul issues. while
not active, were inclined to sag. I'M
provement could hardly be expected
when all the Other northwestern rail-
roads are making comparatively dis
appointing statements. Seaboard Air
Line adjustments were strong.
There is good deal of speculative
buying on the theory that earnings
this year will be sufficient 10 insure
resumption of payments on these
income bonds.

British Are Surprised.
By the Associated Press.

London. sept. eS.--SurpriSe is ex-
pressed in British political quarters
over the sudden decision of the al
lied ambassadors conference TO award
Italy the 100000 lire deposited by
Greece as guarantee for indemnity
in the ease growing out of the masSa-
ere Of the Italian official mission
near .lanina.
1t is understood that the Marquis
of Crewc. British member of the
ambassadors conference. was at first
instructed 10 OPPOSE this awaTri 1on
the ground that Greec's culpability
in the massacre had not been proved.
The British government. however.
realizing that it would be the minority
of one against Italy, later decided for
reasons of diplomacy and cxpedi-
ency" to modify its attitude.
Political observers are now wonder
ing whether the permanent court Of
international justice. TO which the
indemnity question was 10 have been
entrusted, will accept the summary
action of the ambassadors.
The terms Of the original grecmcni
between Italy and Greece for settle
ment of the Janina dispute provided
that the amount of the indemnity
should be determined by the interna-
tiopal court, judged on the strength
of the report of the special commits
sion Of inquiry investigating the case.
This commission, in its preliminary
report exonoera.ed the Greek govern.
ment from completely in the murder.
but the ambassadors conference. ac-
cording to the view held here. no,
only acknowledged the commissions
opinion, but took the matter out Of
the hands of the court. Some doubt
is expressed as 10 whether the court
will unreseryedly accept the decision
of the ambassadors as one predicted
on the original agreement which was
accepted by both Italy nd Greece.
1t is believed that the members OF
the court may have their own views
concerning the merits of the case
and that they have it within their
power TO refuse to endorse Greece's
check. which is in the courts name.
if they are unconvinced of the equity
of the ambassadors decision or he
lieve their own authority is being
ursurped.

Users of domestic sizes in this

tanning carly relief from government:

1t is expected. however, that in a
few months Independent operators will
lower their price at the mine to about

companies.
This should lower the average cost
