HUGHES-THE
DIPLOMATIC PHENOM.

With the political maze in Eu-
rope becoming daily more tangled
and the United States coming
more and more to the front as
an international balance wheel,
Secretary of State Hughes rapid
ly is getting larger and larger in
the public eye. He is today the
worlds outstanding diplomatic fig
ure. Two years ago he was in
nocent of diplomacy.
When Hughes took office as
chief Of the United States state
department on March 5, 1921, he
was a learned jurist, a man with
thorough knowledge of internal
politics, but with only a superficial
knowledge of foreign affairs.
The tangled condition of world
politics, however, provided
school for the new secretary and
ne was a ready learner.
Almost Immediately he was con-
fronted with a boundary dispute
between Costa Rica and Panama
which threatened to develop into
a South American war. Hughes
stopped the fighting, cleared up
the dispute.
Meanwhile certain elements
were prodding the United States
to enter into a trade agreement
with Russia, as Great Britain has
just done.
Hughes, in statement told I'M
der just what conditions the Unit
ed States would do so. That
statement silenced the cIamor at
home and gained US prestige in
Russia.
Then the zap issue drew to
head. Hughes stated the Ameri-
can stand on mandates. He gain
ed for America cable and radio

TIL AGNES ABELING
CHINATOWN ALICE AGAIN
Reoin Here Today.

Kate Ward, widow Of Dan Ward,
living with her father, Justin Par
sons. has a visitor, Chinatown Alice,
who says Dan was father of her
child, Dorothy. A few nights after
Kate and her father are led by their
dog, Monk, where they find an uni
conscious man. Carried TO their
home, he RECEIVERS and gives his name
as James Latham. Evidently he is
much attracted to Kate. She accomp-
anies him on an automobile ride and
as they near the neighboring town
of Terre Haute, she unexpectedly
asks him to take her to The. laundry
Of Sing 10y, with whom Chinatown
Alice lives.
Go on With the Story.
"A Chinese laundryH exclaimed
Latham. "Can't you find a laundry
nearer than that?"
Il night-but not the laundry I
want" Kate spoke lightly. The day
was too lovely to let even the thought
of Alice disturb her.

there and not ask me anything
about it Afterward, perhaps, of
my own wish, I shall tel! you," she
said.
Yes, dear" Latham ventured.
The car sped over the road. Kate
was happy. Almost happier, she
wondered if one could be happier in
the companionship Of a person one
did not love, than a person one loved
very much. Could love be, after all,
a subtle instrument Of torture? And
were women the chief sufferers?
And was she sure that she wasn't

Waterpower Taking Big
 Industries from Cities

CHICAGO, June 23.--With mo- tion pictures. radio and numberless devices that have come along with the electrical age, the country no longer is a Lonesome place." and with the transmission of power by hydro-electric energy an accomplished fact, manufacturing is retreating from the congested, expensive dis tricts to the open areas. according to bulletin of the Illinois commit tee on Public Utility Information.
 ''The new development is as na- tural as 1t is contradictory to the early methods of our national growth" declares the bulletin. Wa terpower, the greatest of all ou run developed natural resources, is mak- ing the change not only possible, but economically desirable. And be- cause it is desirable for that req son, the process of decentralization has commenced.
 As industries change their sites, leaving the great centers for the open spaces, there will go with these institutions the people whose labor makes them possible. These obser- vations are proved by public re- ports, and big business is moving with the drift"

 UNTIL AUGUST

DETROIT, June 29.-The aerial Arctic hunting trip which a group of New York and Detroit men planned to make, in a seaplane some time this month has been postponed until August The postponement was de cided upon because of the number of large icebergs reported in the north regions by the Montreal Geod- etic Survey.

 According to C. F. Reddin, who with lnglis M. Uppercu, of New York, arranged the trip, the flight will be over water all the way. The Hudson will be followed to Albany, thence over Lakes George and Cham. plain to Montreal and up the Ottawa river to the Abitbi lakes.

 The child specialists and experts considered methods of lowering the mortality of infants in this country. Special emphasis was laid by Ar thur B. Spalding, of San Francisco, on the relation of veneral disease and other infections of the mother to deaths in infancy. It was pointed out that proper care of the mother before the child is born will pre- vent many of these deaths.
 Dr. John A. Foote, of Washing ton, D. C., stated his belief that statistics give only an approxi- mate idea of the influence which birth injuries and hemmorhagic dis eases have on infant death, and urged more careful examination of the bodies of infants dying from such causes in order to determine meth ods of prevention. Only with a of the cause can preven. tion be scientifically applied, he said.
