has become mtaristic trained and armed by weapons

THE volcano has burst. What the foreign nations
have refused to give her in modifying unequal and
just treaties she strong enough to take for her
self
It is peoples revolution like the French revolu-
ton. And like the famous blowup, it has three watch
words, liberty, democracy and justice similar to the
French liberty equality and fraternity
Only one nation has renOunced its unequal treaties
and stood out unequivocally China's friend. That
is Russia. Accordingly, the people who arc per

Cost of deporting aliens averages
500, and due to the renewed vigilance
and activity this year of the Federal
inspectors, the annual sum so ex-
pended is considerable. The mere
financial aspect of deporting between
100000 and 100000 aliens illegally
in the United States, is only one
troublesome phase of the problem.
And here exists the parallel to pro-
hibition, officials in each instance
wondering whether the seemingly
small result warrants the enormous
cost.

 narcotics, was condemned at today's session of the 18th annual conven-
 tion of the General Sunday School 1 Association of the Uniyersalist church, held here at the Church of the Redeemer.
 The condemnation of narcotics was contained in report read by the Rev. Harry Adams Hersey, of Canton. N. Y. superintendent of temperance instruction and work, and was enthusiastically approved by the Rev. Dr. Sheldon Shepard of Los Angeles, California. In his re- port the Rev. Herscy refers to cir cular letter sent out with reference to Worlds Temperance Sunday on Oct 30, with enclosure of an article by Professor Irving Fisher of Yale university on the evils of tobacco. It is furnished the Sunday schools so that uperintendents and minis ters who desire to impart the facts contained therein, may have a basis for so doing.
 Despite the great unpopularity Of truth when it is in conflict with custom and habit, it is the only basis upon which we may proceed in teaching temperance in the Sunday schools the report says.

RIDER MAY RESURRECT
 FRENCH TARIFF FIGHT
New Note Does Not Pre- sent Basis for Immedi-
 ate Agreement

Washington, Oct. 17 (UP)-The French compromise proposal in the tariff discrimination dispute with this government was found today to carry rider which may prevent complete acceptance by the United States, the United Press learned.
 The French note, decided by the state department today. said France will postpone the discriminatory tariff rates as demanded and return temporarily to the rates in effect be- fore September 6 except where such rates are lower than the new mini mum rates on German goods. France wants In return assurances that the United States will lower certain American tariff rates and lessen sanitary restrictions which France protests as prohibitory.
 An agreement depends upon French willingness to accept as ade- quate this governments promise to investigate the rates and restrictions and to change them only if such changes are justified under the American law.
 Although the new French note does not therefore present a basis for immediate agreement. officials here are pleased and hopeful be- cause of it's conciliatory tone and be- cause it narrows the field of the dis pute. Frances offer to postpone the discriminatory rates, pending nego- tlations for permanent commercial treaty. is recognized as a major con- cesson, and the state department Will try to meet France half way.
 Administration officials are seek ing a. way to meet the French de- mands without violating the Ameri- can tariff law, which is based on the most favored nation or equality in contrast to the recipro- city principle of France and other European governments.
 In the background is the fear In certain administration circles that unless the French and other foreign i tariff disputes are disposed Of tenn 1 porarlly before congress meets, the ! disputes will open the way for a fight on the Fordney- McCumber tariff law.
