KATHE1IE LOCKE HEARTILY FAVORS 11ATI0HS LEAGUE - ev- r Noted Womanylecturer Would Not Changs Article 10, Which She Calls Very Heart of.the Pact "l am in favor of the Learue of Nation without changing Article Ten. "That to Its very' heart. The league with reservations would bo only a bit of -paper," said MlssKath erlne Locke of Youngstown, Ohio, one of the foremost lecturers and publicists of this country, who. la company with 'Mrs. Frank & Ba&er of Tacoraa, was m. Portland visitor -1 Saturday. .': v. - Of Miss Locke, WHIiam Howard Taft says; "She Is the best equipped scholar in the history and political construction of European territory, and the foremost current topic lecturer and publicist In the country." . . The greatest need of the world -to-. day Is an enlightened female mentality. The responsibility of women is to be Intelligent. The great political issue of today is woman herself. The men know that and are waiting- to see how woman - will adjust herself to the great ques tions that are coming up. MOTHERHOOD 18 ISSUE "The forward look of woman is a part of the motive power of the world, and U .-' Is what we ' mean when we say mother. The motherhood of today, then, ts the great iasue-r-the motherhood look Ins? forward to prevent war for her child. The Issue today Is a League of Nations and the men haven't found It. Miss Locke was trained for editorial - and magazine writing-. It was Richard Watson GUdar, poet and editor, who. gave Miss Locks her first Impetus toward the lecture platform. He heard her speak Informally at a banquet, and. Insisted that she turn her talent from writing to speaking, which she did, meeting with unlimited, success. -, CURRENT EVENTS APPEAI In recent years much of Miss Locke's : speaking has been' on current events and It came about in this way : Seven years sgo her mother was stricken with paraly sis. For many hour Miss Locke sat at her mother's bedside, talking to her about current events, local and foreign, and reading aloud the American papers and foreign Journals. One morning a friend. listening to. one of these con w nations, asked her to appear before a little group of women and talk to them as she had talked to her mother. An eminent consultant of Philadelphia men- - tloned these remarkable conversations to his friends and the result was an Invitation for Miss Locke to go to Phil adelphia, where she gave, a series of current topics In the ballroom 4f the Dalle vue-Stratford. . TALE HT IS DEVELOPED " . : This endeavor fast developed mte a regular undertaking until today; Miss Locke's winter audiences alone , number more than 16,000 women. . Uuring the , last year she spoke fortnightly In Cleve land. Philadelphia, Pittsburg. Detroit, , Cincinnati. Buffalo and New York. Her ' appearance in Cincinnati is in the home of Charles P. Taft. brother of William Howard Taft. - and In New York she speaks In the home of Henry P. Davi son, president of the American . Bed Cross. - - '' - .

June 5. WASHLNa TON BUREAU OF THEf JOUBNAL) President Wilson's pocket veto "of the water power hill, which throws the en tire question back to congress, was un expected. Inquiries originating at the White House indicate that the president was undecided early ' today; as to the course he should pursue, and the matter evidently- presented such serious doubt to his mind that he believed the &afe way was to leave the bill unapproved. : Conspicuous opponents of the bill like Senator Lenroot , contended ' that the measure in its final form was virtually a surrender to the water power corpora tions; because it would in fact, though not in form, confer perpetual franchisee. Other congressional leaders. Including most of those from the far West, wanted the bill approved. They denied that it meant perpetual franchise, and asserted that this bill presented the most hopeful solution of contending interests that can be reasonably , expected without more years of delay. ; They give gestures of despair as to what may happen ' when the waterpower cat comes back in De cember. -. i . r City Government's Cash 86,601,754 in 6 Month's Period .

WILSOW SCORES CONGRESS ' Part of the time leaders were -unable to, keep a quorum present. --- - Early In the day President "Wilson denounced congress for. failure to act on high coot of living measures, just before the house adjourned, Republican Leader Mondell praised congress, de claring It had : saved the government $3,374.460.tlT.oe. ; vj i - - The president's letter was written In s newer to a protest by railroad brotherhood-heads against congress adjourning at this tlme j Wilson charged that the congress not only has failed to deal directly witht the cost of living. "but It has failed even to give a serious con sideration to the urgent appeal oft re peated by me and by the secretaries of the treasury, to -revise the tax ' laws which in their Present form are indirect.. ly responsible In part for the high cost of living." - MOXDJCLL DEFENDS COVGBE8S - Mondell pointed to the -record of the session in the passage of constructive bills. t "The program constitutes such Import ant legislation as the transportation act. the woman suffrage amendment, the Greene shipping act, the oilland leasing bill, the waterpower bill, the Sweet war risk act, the civil service , retirement act and the act for inforcement of prohibi tion."
