II Asst Wednesday, for the first time
IL since the beginning of the World
war in 1914, July wheat sold on the
Chicago board of trade for less than a
dollar bushel and, coincidentally, the
Minneapolis millerS reduced the price
of flour to Sc barrel, the lowest since
1915. According to the Chicago
brokers, the price depression, which
has been steadily progressive of late,
is due primarily to overproduction
everywhere and to a general readjust-
ment of grain values toward prewar
conditions. In addition, recent fears
of heavy damage to wheat in the
Northwest from black rust have been
dissipated, with corresponding effect
on prices. Another cause for the
slump given by the brokers is lack of
speculation in the market due to the
Capper-T incher act, which requires a
report of holdings to the government.
Gilbert Dusler, market statistician
for the American farm bureau, de-
clared that if September and Deem
Der wheats go as low as 95 cents a
bushel it will mean a loss of $80,00O,-
600 to the American farmer.

cause she was unable to afford more

France also proposes to have as
great an air-fghting force as any
other nation, believing her greatest
danger in the future. from Germany,
for instance. will lie in aerial attack.
Great Britain, too, is planning to build
up an air force equal to any other, and

prospect of any such conference while

CT F FRANCE and Italy are willing,
L Great Britain will assume the
responsibility of preparing a reply for
the allies to the latest German repa-
rations note. The government aims
solely at the paeificatiOn of Europe
and the recovery of the exhausted
world We, like our allies, are deter
mined that Germany shall pay all she
can; but we feel that to seek to force
her to pay in excess of her capacity is
futile We said the French occupa-
ton of the Ruhr would not be f1nan-
cial success, and it isn't. Europe is
alarmed by the threatened total col
lapse of Germany. The recovery of the
world is in danger. Peace is at stake"
That, briefly summarized, is the
statement made to the house of COM
mons by Premier Baldwin and to the
house of lords by Marquis Curzon last
Thursday afternoon. It was made clear
that Great Britain, while earnestly de-
string unified action by the allies,
would act alone If that extreme course
were necessary What the British pro-
posals in the contemplated note will
be is not stated.
Mr.. Baldwin, while admitting that
the German proposals set forth in the
recent note were unsatisfactory and in
sufficient, declared they should not be
ignored, but should be examined and
explored. He was especially out
spoken concerning the Ruhr situation,
asserting that indefinite occupation by
one country Of the territory of another
in time of peace was rare and regret
table phenomenon an honorable end
for which should be found as speedily
as possible.
Debate on the statement in the house
of commons, 1t was decided by the
parliamentary leaders, should be post
poned until July 16 in order that the
attitude Of other countries toward the
announcement might be learned Dur
ing the discussion, it is expected, the
plan of an international commission of
experts to determine Germany's fnan-
cial resources, as suggested by Secre-
tary of State Hughes, will be brought
forward.
Pressure from business and labor
practically forced the Baldwin cabinet
to take the course announced 1t has
the warm support of the Labor party
in parliament and of most Of the in
f1uential newspapers.

WHAT France will do in this crisis
w is predetermined at this writing.
In the senate Thursday Premier Poin-
care said: IT am confident; l am not

us she will soon be back at our side.
Germany will wait in vain for a single
moment Of weakness on our part.
France will finish what she has begun !;
she will continue until the collapse of
German resistance. We cannot accept
any mediation between France and
Germany"
Italy, it is believed, will give it's APP

be that the little entente and Poland

Children's Books
Filled With Ideas
For Play Indoors

So MANY requests have come for
other suggestions for indoor fur and
books on the subject that mothers,
generally, may be interested in the
list recommended by Miss Clara
Hunt, superintendent of the Chill
dren's department of the Brooklyn
public library.
There is the book by Bertha john
ston, called 'Home Occupations for
BOYS and Girls" which is put out for
90 cents and which, as Miss Hunt
saws. sis a mothers book rather than
a child's" but is filled with good ideas
for WAYS in which to keep the little
children happily busy. 1t has the
added value of suggesting occupa-
lions that instruct and do not call OH
big outlay of money and, according
to the librarians. every mother VIII
find it $50 useful in a family OF
young children"
The well known when Mothers

many good suggestions, but for rainy
DAYS "When Mother Lets Us Sew

practical, simple directions in at
tractive FORM" and when Mother

a room, sweeping, waiting on table
and other duties of the home, prob

Miss Johnson's "When Mother Lets
Us Cook" This last book puts the
directions in rhymes and jingles and
no doubt, is fun producer, but
rhymes and iingles do not clean up
the kitchen later! These books sell
for SIPS apiece.

For the boys just beyond the tiny

Senator James A. Carley admitted ON
the floor of the Senate, when the
Mackenzie committee named to in
vestigate his allegations put it up to
the senate to decide whether Carley
should testify as a witness in the in
vestigations.
Senator Carley promised on the
floor of the Senate that he would tell
the committee the names of persons
from whom he obtained hearsay evil
dence on which he based his charges.
Mr.. Carley's promise carried the
provision that the names he gave
would be used by the committee in de-
termining the method of procedure
in calling witnesses for the investi-
cation and that the information he
be made public
That was the outcome of a three
hour debate in the Senate, following
action OF the investigation commit
tee, appointed at the request of Mr.
Carley when he made his broadside
charges of violation of the corrupt
practice act, asking for instructions
regarding procedure.
w men the committee met TO DeRln
the inquiry into his broadside charg-
es, it asked Senator Carley to testify.
He refused. A majority of the COM
mittee took the position that it had
nothing definite to investigate when
Carley declined to take the stand
and substantiate his charges.
Senator Carley admitted that his
knowledge was based on hearsay, but
made an impassioned reply to the
other committee members in the pres
ence of large gallery of spectators
in the Senate today. He said he hal

 Wives make unnecessary hells for their husbands by selfishness.

 Many a woman is too lazy to keep house; too indifferent to her hus- bands comfort to see that he has de- cent meals; too thriftless to spend wisely the money he earns.

 The other day girl fainted from the heat in the subway, yet hundreds of people crowded around the few who were trying to revive the young woman and almost made 1t impossible to aid her.
 When, oh when, will people stop being so curious and, besides, lose time and energy in watching some- body suffer? It would seem that the thing they should be most concerned with is that the person injured Is properly cared for and then go about their own business. But no, the nor bid ones must stop and see all the detailed horrors.
 Somehow I cannot help wishing that there be a subject in the curric- ulum of the public schools with the Watchwords Keep away from the crowds; mind your own business"
 If you can't help, don't hurt by adding one more to the mob. What benefit, anyway, can one gain fron seeing somebody hurt or carried off in an ambulance or by eeing a wit ness to any kind of pain to another human being?
 Certainly, it cannot give any pleas ure, and in most cases spells the whole day As a general thing, when you are in touch with an accident and are really an eyewitness to any trouble of this kind, you canot get it out of your mind.
 It does you no good, and cretainly it does little or no good to the one injured In fact, most of the time It Is narrowing indeed.
 The Golden Rule might well be followed here. If you put yourself in the other fellows place, you will realize how embarrassing it must be to appear the object of thousands of eyes, especially when you are miesr- able and need most of all to pull yourself together and perhaps con- front an operation or even face death itself.
 How much easier it would be for such a person if only two or three people who happen to be on the spot were left alone and be permitted to give the first aid needed. How much more readily 1t would help the suffer- ing one cannot be estimated.
 The crowd itself is source of alarm to the person who has been hurt, since he fears he is more in- tured perhaps than he actually is.
 There Is something weak, yes, truly morbid about the individual who must stand by and make numbers on occasions like this. This undue curl osity might well be curbed. Much good would result for all concerned.

Parents Tyranny Over Chdren Chdrens ForgetfuIness And Neglect; Misunderstanding Between Wives And
 Husbands-These Make Unnecessary Hells'

Kipling speaks of "the unneces- sary hells" that we make for others, and that others make for us. A great phrase, that. The unnecessary hells in which we all writhe. The needless suffering we must endure. The needless tears we shed. The needless burdens we bear.
 Mostly our unnecessary hells are made for us by our own families. That is the curious part of it. It is the people who really love us best who torture us most. It is the peo- pie who do not Intentionally make us unhappy who rob life of it's sweet ness and make 1t bitter in our mouths.
 Parents make unnecessary hells for their children by their petty tyrannies They are determined to make their children rubber stamps of themselves, no matter how dit- ferently nature has created them, and so they force the youngsters into their own mold, even at the cost of crushing genius and wrecking lives.
 With the average father and moth CT the standard of right and wrong is what they like to do, and what they did when they were young Every time their children want to do what they enjoy doing, and what young people are doing now, it is at the price of stormy scenes and moth CTS tears and fathers anger.
 Just a little personal liberty; just a little sympathy with the craving of youth for pleasure; just little evidence that father and mother are friends, as well as parents, who want to help them on to good time in stead of being grinding despots who block every plan that they can, would make a home a heaven for many a boy and girl whose parents are now making 1t a purgatory out of which they are struggling to es- cape.
 Children make unnecessary hells for their parents by their coldness and neglect. They are so intent on their own lives, so occupied with their own interests, so eager in the pursuit of pleasure that they forget the fathers and mothers who nave toiled and sacrificed for them. ana who can be repaid in no other com than love and gratitude.
 The deepest depth of the deepest hell Is so1nded by the fathers and mothers who have known the scorch- ing shame of having wayward daughter, or who nave laln AWdhe at night listening for the drag or the steps of drunken son.
 Nor Is there any heartbreak more cruel to endure than that which comes of happy and prosperous chil- dren just forgetting-the perpetual looking for the letter that busy man does not take the time to write inc longed-f flor visit that the daugh- fer rushed with society and clubs, and her own children and house. keeps putting off from year to year.

 And any women can make her nus band happy, and make him feel that marriage is worth while, if she VIII let him see that he is still the hero of her girlish dreams, and that she does not take his hard work for her and the sacrifices he makes for her for granted, but that she stands In awe and reverence before the heroism of the husbands who literally give their lives to their families.
 Men make unnecessary hells for their wives by their silence; by their grumpiness; by their grouehlnessi py their tempers that take out on an unoffending wife the nerve and irrl- tability that they dared not show to the outside world. Many woman lives in terror of the devil in her husband. Many woman starVes 10 death for a word of affection. Many 6 womans whole married life IS a cold, miserable, lonely journey, full of disappointment, of dreariness, or vain regrets and longings, just oe- cause her husband withholds all ten derness and understanding from her Just because of a few words he does not take the trouble to say.
 It's terrible thing for a man to take a woman's s life in his hands ana break 1t as wantonly as bad child breaks 8 toy. Yet men do 1t contln- ually And it's the tragedy of trage- dies to think that nearly every mlser- able marriage Is an unnecessary heii; Either the man or the woman could nearly always save it. Both, work ing together, could surely save 1t.
