CLAIMS WORLD
 NOW IMPROVING

PARIS, Nov. io.-The whole world, including the oft-abused younger generation, is growing better, declares Bishop William o. Shephard, recently appointed Methodist Episcopal Bishop for this district, who raised an op- timistic voice in defense of the human race in the midst of the present pessimistic chorus.
 The young people of today are much wider awake and much more serious than they ever were before,' the Bishop said. "It seems the popular thing now is to condemn the younger genera tion, but I am not one of those who find it pleasant occupation. For my part, I find them more admirable than any young gen eration that has yet existed"
 Continuing in his defense of the flapper and her male knight or the auto-steering gear, the Bishop continued: q have three sons, you know, and it is no se- cret to me that they are better men than l was when I was their age. In fact, it is good world and getting 5etter every day"
 Comparing the present genera tion with past ones, Bishop Shephard gave the contemporary one the preference: "The people of the Middle Ages had the repu- tation of being serious. As matter of fact, they had no thoughts at all. They were just stupid and dumb"

 For the moTent il is the failure of great naval powers to agree up- on methods of limiting navies which is holding up the leagues disarmament business.

 MOVING AWAY
 FROM EUROPE
Suspicious Aroused by Coolidge Speech
 Facts Stated

MANCHESTER, England, Nov. 13. - The Manchester Guardian today says editorially that the general impression of President Coolidge's Armistice Day address is that the United States is now definitely farther away from Eur ope than she was 12 years ago.
 This is largely the outcome of the abortive Geneva Naval Conference and Anglo French Compromise" the Guardian says.
 Continuing the M ster Guardian says:
 Suspicious of Europe
 It is now prastically certain that provision will be made for 15 additional United States cruis- CTS. The cruisers as a matter are less in themselves, than as eyi- dence they give of an increase in suspicion of European motives and ambitions.
 "Mr. Coolidge is still willing to come to terms over naval dis armament but is less hopeful than he was. It is the same in the economic sphere.
 "There is no reason to doubt that MT. Coolidge reflects the national mind and it matters lit tie that some of his arguments are bad.
 "So long as armed peace broods over Europe and so long as the European policy is liable to be dominated by some militaristie as governed the Gen eva Conference and Anglo French the United States is bound to be driven back upon herself.
 Responsibility
 America was moving towards Europe and is now moving away.
 Responsibility for this change lies primarily at the door of eer- tain European governments and not the least conspicuously is that of Great Britain.
 Doubtless direction could be changed again but if Europe wants American help she must be prepared to pay the price and which is one we need not be ashamed to pay"
