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. - - ''
- . Miss Locke was a member of the
party touring the country in the inter
ests of the .League to Enforce Peace,
other members being ex-President Taft.
A. Lawrence Lowell, president of Har-
. vard ; Babbi Stephens Wise and others.
.She has also spoken throughout the
country for. the Bed-Cross.
STUDIO IS MAINTAINED
'"Miss Locks maintains a large force of
secretary librarians In her home studio
and in her London office, who dip and
file the latest developments in interna
tkmal 'arentB. and no topic on which she
speaks Is considered complete without
the last Item which the history of the
day has brought forth, - -
Miss Locke left Saturday evening for
, California. She will sail June 2 for
fcurope. During the summer-she will
speak on the League of Nations In Rome,
Paris. Brussels and .'London. , She will
return to this country In the early fall
to resume her work, all of her time fee
ing taken up to the first of' May. v It Is
possible ; that arrangement may .'be
made for her to present some of her
topics in Seattle, Tacoma and Portland
next May. x '
Miss Locke numbers Portland people
among her friends, where . she spent
considerable time during her earlier
year. She Is a sister of Charles Ed
ward Locke, one time pastor of the Tay
lor street Methodist church and recently
made a. bishop of the Methodist Episco
pal church. ' . ' ,

PRESIDENTS POCKET VKTO OP
i POWER BILL UNKXPECTED
Waghingtoo. 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

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

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." Mondell said.
-The Republican floor leader blamed
Democratic opposition in the senate for
failure to pass the budget bill.

the brotherhoods. In whiph he flayed
the Republican congress, follows
