HANCELLOR CUNO, striving to
~ save Germany from utter collapse
and his administration from downfall,
presented his program Wednesday to
the reichstag, called in special SEES
sion because of the financial crisis.
It's three main points are:
1. A gold loan.
2. Placing taxation, including in
come and customs, indirect and direct,
upon a gold value basis.
8. A levy upon industries, which
have made millions Of dollars.
His plan was applauded by the ma
iority of the assembly, but the Com
munist members ragged and howled,
haunting Cuno and bitterly assailing
Hugo SHINES, the industrial magnate,
who sat unmoved and silent. The
CHANCELLOR retaliated Only with the
remark that "the growing activity Of
communism in Germany and else
where will lead to the ruin of Europe"
To which the Communists replied
"She is ruined already"
Concerning the PREPARATIONS middle,
Cuno expressed extreme dissatisfac-
ton with the British draft of a reply
to the German note, declaring 1t con-
tanned much that was impossible OF
fulfllment and that England had gone
extraordinarily far in her concessions
to the French viewpoint.
sIt is necessary to continue with
all our strength passive resistance,
free from mad acts of violence and
terror" he said, "and to support ac-
lively from the unoccupied territory
the population which is persevering in
a passive resistance of it's own WILL
Repeating the French statement
that the Ruhr was to be freed only
when the last pfennig was paid, and
pointing out that the most vital IN
strument with which Germany might
pay had been taken away when the
Ruhr was seized, Herr Cuno asserted
that if Germany's collapse was to be

Mr.. COOLIDGE may have chance
1N1 to add greatly to his prestige, if
he is called on to settle the strike of
anthracite miners Remembering how,
as governor of Massachusetts, he
smashed the policemen's strike, or
ganized labor does not feel comfort
able over the prospect. So far the
coal commission has been able to do
nothing in the case. 1t reported last
week that plans for compulsory arbi-
tration of wage disputes in the coal
industry offer no hope for effectively
dealing with the problem. 1t recon-
mends that future wage agreements
include a clause providing for auto
matte renewal except as to such points
as may be a subject of dispute. No
tice is to be given of these points
ninety days in advance Of the expi-
ration, and if an agreement is not
reached prior to sixty days before the
expiration, notice is to be given to the
President of the United States who
will appoint commission to inquire
into the subjects at issue and make
a public report before the renewal

New England uses large percent

the consumers of that section now
threaten to abandon its use entirely If

when his mind is made up he is as
firm as a New Hampshire mountain.
Inevitably Mr. Coolidge comes for
ward now as a leading possibility for
the Republican presidential nominal
ton next year. He has some ten
months in which to prove to his party
that he is its best choice, and fifteen
months in which to convince the coun-
try that he should continue to hold the
Office. At present his main strength,
politically, lies in the East. In the
Middle and Far West it is believed
Senator Hiram Johnson will be
powerful opponent and Senator LaFol-
lette is conceded good many votes in
the convention. AS one Washington
correspondent puts it: 1T will be
mainly tussle between eastern con-
seryatism, fortified by control of the
administration, and western progress
iyism, running strong in the priIna-
ries."
Much depends on President Cool
idge's attitude toward American mem
bership in the world court, and what
this is no one seems to know. Not
withstanding his declaration Of inten-
ton to carry on the Harding policies,
the party leaders in Washington do
not expect him to make the world
court an issue with the senate and
risk the chance Of party split, which
they say would be playing into the
hands of Senator Johnson.

last few days and Miss Ella Is put
out about it,"
There had been a great sensation
on its becoming known in West End
circles that the seven-year-old
and heir of Lord and Lady Tressilian
was missing. His lordship's enor-
nous wealth, and the circumstance
of his marriage nine years before,
suficed to lift the case out of the
commonplace and classify 1t as a
first-class mystery with possible
family complications.
At the time Of the marriage, which
had created SO much talk, Lord Tres
siIian had been SIS years old, and
till within a few months of the cere-
mony, had, been regarded as a con-
firmed bachelor. His presumptive
heir had been his nephew, the Hon
orable Ralph Weyland a young officer
in the Guards, whose e~xtravagant
living and excuses about town had
gained him an ~unenviable notoriety.
Ralph Wyland's final escapade of
marrying a third-rate music hall ar

silian that he had also made an ex-
cursion into the realms Of matri-
mony, taking to himself a wife In
his old age in the hope of providing
himself with a direct heir who
should keep his disreputableN nephew
out of the title and entailed estates.
His lordship's hopes were entirely
realized, a son having been born to
him in the second year of his a
ried life, and a daughter a rear later.
Thence onward the affairs of the
Tressilians were of the quiet and

Philip Freneau Author
of the First American
Poem of Independence

Now the two great English-speaking
nations, the United States and Great
Britain. happily are IN terms Of amity,
but in the days Of the differences"
there was q feeling against the mother
country intensely violent, as is shown
by the appended verses. Philip Ere
neau. author of the poem, was the first
American poet of any note. He vas
born In 1852 in New York, was gradu-
ated from Princeton In It'll. and In
1775, at the age Of twenty-three, he
wrote this bitterly satirical poem, en-
titled Emancipation From British De-
pendence." The next year independence
was declared by the Continental con
gress. Freneau lived to the age of
eighty. dying neal Freehold. N. j., late
in 1882.
From a 1unta that labor for absolute
power,
Whose schemes. disappointed. have
made them look sour;
From the lords of the council, who fight
against freedom,
Who still follow on where de1usion
shall lead 'em;
From groups at st. James who slight
our petitions
And fools that are waiting for further
submissions;
From q nation whose manner are
rough and abrupt.
From ~scoundrels and rascals whom
gold can corrupt;
From pirates sent out by command OF
the king
To murder and plumber. but never to
swing;
From Wallace and Graves and vipers
and roses
Whom. If heaven pleases, Wen give
bloody noses;
From the valiant Dunmore. with his
crew of banditti,
Who plumber virginians at Williams
From h-ot-headed Montague, mighty to
The little fat mar with his pretty white
hair;
From bishops in Britain, who butchers
are crowns
From slaves that would die for q smile
from the throne,
From assemblies hat vote against con-
eress, proceedings,
Who now see the fruit OF their stupid
m~isleadinEs;
From rryon. the mighty. who nies from
our city
And. sweIled with Importance, disdains

(But since he is pleased to proclaim us
his foes
what the devil care we where the devil
he gees!);
From the caitiff Lord North, who would
bind us in chainsi
From our noble King Log. with his
toothfui ofsbrains.
Who dreams and is certain when TAX
Ing a nap
He has conquered our lands as they
lay on his lap;
From a kingdom that DULLES and hec-
tors and swears,
I send up to heaven my wishes and
prayers
That we. disunited. may freemen be
still,
And Britain go on to be id If she
will.

Lafayette.

Gilbert Du Motier ne Lafayette was
born in the castle OF Chavagnac,
A%uvergne, France. and was left an
orphan when thirteen years old, having
large estates. He revisited America
after the war in 1884 and in 1S24-25,
and both times was received with n
thusiasm and affection. The latter
visit was, in fact, in the nature Of a
Itriumphal progress, for Lafayette's
first support of democratic principles
In France had increased the esteem
In which he was held in America. Con-
lgress voted him a grant of 100000
and a township of land in Florida. He
died In Paris May 20, 1884.
