WAR DEBT
-By William Jennings Bryan-
tC-wrtsht, 1921. by tnltal Pre.)
Washington. Nov. 19. The conference
which Is about to stwemble may prove
to be the moat Important gathering In
centuries, or It may
bring the greatest
disappointment ex
perienced In gener
ations. It all depends
upon the real pur
pose of the actors
a purpose that can
only be revealed by
acts.
If the delegates
believe universal
and perpetual peace
possible, they will
try to secure It; If not, they will not
attempt anything of real and permanent
Importance.
It la a conference from which any
one of the nation may emerge the hero.
The United State may surprise the
world by offering so much that the
ithrr nation will be compelled to ac
cept the offer unil end war.
JAPAN M A V H KLP
Japan muy announce a willingness to
So so far aa to Insure the Success of
the conference. Orr-at Britain may step
to the front and settle discussion by a
proportion which will leave the other
nationa no alternative but to accept.
France may find In disarmament her
greatest security-and point the way to
world peace.
Who will v.ln the capital prize, which
In this case will be the plaudits of the
world and the gratitude of posterity?
'I he i: tilted State has the best posi
tion. She extended the Invitation and
has the first move. More than that, her
traditional policy has been to rely on
her pacifist Intentions rather than on
flaeta and armies. In the present In
stance she has a mighty, asset In the
debts due her.
irrOSE THIS HAFFK5S
Suppose the United States war to
step forward and aay : Wa are willing
, to pay ten billions for the progressiva
disarmament of the world, begun at
once and continued until the navies ars
no larger than necessary to police the
seas and srraies.no larger than neces
sary to preserve peace on land. Could
the satlwns refuse the offer?
Ten billions of debt cancelled on such
conditions would enable the allies and
their., enemies to get together and so
distribute the sums as to bring a large
measure Of financial relief to every
nation Involved tn the war. and this re
lief would restore friendly relations and
permit a disarmament otherwise lm
possible. The cancellation of this debt,
added to' the reduotlon of military and
naval expenses, would give the world a
new birth and go far towards restoring
normal conditions In business.
WOILD SAVE MICH
Could tha United States afford it? Jk
reduction of one halt In her military and"
naval appropriations would enable her
to aava tha amount in less than twenty
years; reduction of three fourths in
army and navy expenses would enable
her to aava the amount in less than flf-
teen years. It will ba difficult for the
debtor nations to pay the sum and tha
obligation to pay It la made tha basis
for Indemnities which, however Just,
threaten tha amity of Europe for gen
eration and thua furnish an excuse
(or military and naval expenditures
acarcaly lesa burdensome than the in
demnities.
WHT SOT, ME ASKS
Would tha American people support
Such a proposition? Why not? They
are sentimental , they spent over thirty
Billions to end war by means of war ;
would they not spend tan billions to end
war by peaceful means? And, besides.
the American people are practical. If
they can save enough on military and
naval appropriations In 15 or 20 years
to compensate them for giving up the
debt, why should they spend two or
three times that auin on army and navy
while they consume ltx years tn col
lecting the debt, not to speak of the
possible dangers that lurk in the at
tempt to collect such a debt from na
tions alrtady overburdened?
Has thla nation any better offer to

ao- large a contribution towards the

The fiercest contest this year at the
Taclfic International Livestock exposi
tion came where It was not expected
by many breeders in the Guernsey
eluss. One of the beet herdn of Guern
seys the Kast has to show was pitted
against the best of the West.
So close was the i contest In class
fter class that Judge J. S. Clarke of
Boston declared today that he never had
been called upon to perform such a
strenuous task in all his years of judg
ing Guernseys.
"You have a much better balanced
Guernsey show here than we had any
where In the East this year, including
New York state." Clarke told the
Guernsey breeders at their banquet in
the Bensoh hotel Wednesday night. "The
East has a few more outstanding indi
viduals, but not such evenly balanced
herds."
WESTERS EB-S PBA1ED -
i.larKe commended me
Western
Guernsey breeders for trying to develop
their herds rather than one anlrrral only.
Clarke Is superintendent of the Mlxter
Guernsey farms in Massachusetts, the
largest Guernsey farm In the world.
The final result showed the honors
sbout evenly divided between the East
and West. The East was given the
senior champion, junior champion and
grand' champion ribbons in the bull
class, while the West won the same
three ribbons In the cow class.
The West came almost losing the

James T. Anderson, who killed his
wife, ho said, to end her suffering, was
found not guilty on the grounds of in
sanity, this morning, in Circuit Judge
Wilson's court. He probably w ill be
committed to the state insane asylum
to be kept until he is examined and
found sane or until some other disposi
tion Is made of him.
The Jury reported its verdict at 11 :5i.
It was sent out Wednesday" evening at

Anderson did not even stand up to
receive the decision of the jury. Ha
seemed unmoved as if it w-as a matter
of Indifference to him whether he was
found guilty or not guilty.
John Collier of counsel for 'Anderson
asked that Monday at 3 o'clock be set
as the time for making final disposi

present facts concerning Anderson's
family before the court took action. It
is expected that he will ask that An

Pay Honor
To the Flag
Asks Legion
Honor the flag, urges the American
Lesion, on Armistice day when it passes
in parade or flies overhead. Flags in
Portland will be Gown at full mast by
proclamation of Mayor Baker. Presi
dent Harding, however, had asked that
flags be at half mast.
The Legion's appeal is as follows:
When you, see the Stars and
Stripes displayed, cltisen, stand up
and take off your hat.
Somebody may titter. It is in the
blood of some to deride all expres
sions of noble sentiment. But don't
you mind: When Old, Glory comes
along, salute, and let them think
what they please. When you hear
the band play "The Star Spangled
Banner" while you are in a restau
rant or hotel dining room, get up,
even, if you rise alone ; stand there,
and don't be ashamed of it, either.
MEAM5G OF SYMBOL
For of all the signs and symbols
since the world began there 13 none
other so full of meaning as the flag
of this country. The red. white and
blue means E000 yers . of struggle
upwards. It is the full-grown flower
of ages of fighting for liberty. .It
is the century plant of human hope
in bloom.
Your flag stands for humanity, for
an equal opportunity to all the sons
of men. Of course, we haven't ar
rived yet Kt that goal; there are
many injustices yet among us, many
senseless and cruel customs of the
past still clinging to us. but the only
hope of righting the wrongs of men
lies in the feeling produced in our
bosoms by the sight of that flag.
Don't be ashamed when your
throat chokes and the tears come,
as you see it flying from the masts
of our ships on all the seas or float
ing from every flagstaff of the re
public. You will never have a
worthier emotion.
Listen, citizen! The band is play
ing the national anthem "The Star
Spangled Banner '." They have let
loose Old Glory y&nder. Stand up
and others will stand with you.
RI LES i'OR FLAG
Observance of rules governing the use
of the American flag pertaining to Ar
mistice, day functions is urged by the
Daughters of the American Revolution,
which compiled the following from an
official circular issued by the Society
of Patriotic and Civic Improvement of
Washington, D, C. '
The flag should not be hoisted
before sunrise nor be allowed to
remain up after .sunset.

CAPITAL OF WORLD
By Carl D. Groat
Washington, Nov. 10. (U. P.)
America's capital today became the cap
ital of the world. - With the arrival of
Arthur Balfour and other British dele
gates, Washington is ready for one of
the greatest peace parleys in history.
On the eye of the conference, inter
est centers on whether the United
States, as an evidence of its good faith,
will offer to suspend naval construction
during the sessions here.
All the delegates are waiting eagerly
for America to take the lead, either by
proposing suspension of construction
during the conference or by submitting
a definite program for arms limitation.
VISITORS CROWD CITT
Washington is crowded with visitors
from all over the world, Japanese, Chi
nese, French, Italian, British, Portu
guese, Indians mingle with the crowds on
the streets, some wearing native cos
tumes, with military representatives
bedecked in flashy uniforms, spotted
with medals.
All over the city are flags of the
principal nations at the conference. Ho
tels are crowded, with rates soaring
daily.
The various delegations today were
holding preliminary conferences, but
carefully guarding the cards which they
will put on the conference table.
BIG HORSESHOE TABLE
Continental Memorial hail, in the D.
A. R. building, is ready for the opening
Saturday. In the center of the hall is
a big horseshoe table, similar to the his
toric one at Versailles.
The principal delegates will sit around
the table with advisers back of them.
On three sides will be seated about
300 representatives of the press. Up in
he galleries will be members of con
gress, the supreme court and diplomatic
representatives.
The delegates, representing the keen
est brains of America, Europe and the
Last, will assemble in Continental hall
at 10:50 a. m., Saturday. After greet
ings from President Harding and Secre
tary of State Hughes, the conference
expects to proceed to organisation.
Hughes probably -will be permanent
chairman.
The second open session is expected
Monday or Tuesday, when perhaps the
nation can gain an insight Into what the
conference really intends S3 to policy
and proceed ure.

BOWS MARSHAL FOCH AND GENERAL PERSHING
AT BIER OF
Soldier Reposes Upon Catafalque
Which Has Borne Lincoln, Gar
field and McKinley; Solemn
Procession Passes by Casket
Washington, Nov. 10. Moving rever
ently through the shadowed rotunda of
the national capitol, gray haired moth
ers and high officials of the government,
battle-scarred, war veterans and envoys
of world powers paid homage and tribute
today at the bier of America's Nameless
Hero.
Beneath a mountain of laurel and
roses he slept the sleep from which non.j
may awake, reposing upon the cata
falque which has borne Lincoln, Gar
field and McKinley, until he sha'.l be
buried at Arlington as a symbol of the
love and gratitude of a mighty nation
for her honored dead.
Only the wreath placed there by the
president of the United States rested
on the simple oaken casket this morn
ing. A 8 o'clock the solemn procession
began.
3IASV SHED TEARS
Thousands who were not allowed to
pause at the catafalque filed through
the rotunda, offering silent prayers. The
tears of the nation's profound sorrow
glistened unashamed in many eyes as
citizens of high and low estate mingled
in the endless human stream.
The Unknown will lie in state until-
10 o'clock tonight, guarded by a detach
ment of army engineers. After 10
o'clock none will be admitted until the
morning of November 11, when the
Armistice day ceremonies begin.
The first delegation to arrive at the
capitol today represented the Federated
Council of Churches. It comprised a
number of leading ministers, who, after
a few minutes at the casket, gave way

who saw service outside the United

PREMIER HALTS
London, Noc 10. (U. P.) Premier
Lloyd George succeeded in postponing
a showdown on the Irish question today
when he induced the Ulster cabinet to
put aside its meeting with British gov
ernment representatives until tomor
row.
The postponement was announced
after Lloyd George, conferring with ad-
visors in Downing street, sent a letter
to the Ulstentes gathered at the Hotel
Savoy, asking that the meetine- be de-
f erred.
Just before today's Joint conference
was called off Sir James Craie-. nnmUr
of ulster, issued a statement declaring !
that none of Ulster's rights would be
surrendered. This was interpreted as a
flat refusal to consider acceptance of
the compromise proposal which provided

line secret service nad been aavisea
through the Amerlca.B Legion that an
attack might be' made against the mar
shal and it was decided that no chances
would be taken and he was shifted
through Braddock, a suburb.
Only the official reception committee
and other high city officials knew of 'the
secret change in the routing of the mar-
ahal and his party and these were the
only ones to welcome him at Braddock.
Thousands waited in vain at Pennsylva
nia station for a glimpse of the great
warrior.
ATTACK PLANNED,
According to confidential information
received by the International News Serv
ice an attack had been plannel against
tne great frenchman. The details are
not clear, but the impression prevails
that an attempt to assassinate was the
aim.
That the United States secret serv
ice was coznizant of this is evidenced by
the fact that when Foch passed through
iittsturg on his way to Kansas City a
great crow d had assembled at the Penn
sylvania station to greet him. but as his
train was about to arrive that morning
the" secret service agent In charge in
Pittsburg would permit no one to go
near the' marshal's car.
Even-the French consul in Pittsbure.
who is one of America's most distin
guished physicians and scientists, was
also barred.. No explanation was made
I thn ,or this action.
Today it became known that an anony
mous tip, said to have been sent by a
Frenchmti here, went-to the Legion
authorities that cn attafjc might be
made. i -
The details of this supposed plot have
not beencveaied. At any rate plans
were changed secretly for the marshal's
entry to thisf city and up to his arrival
I today but half a dozen people were
aware or tne change or why it had been
maae- 1
After Foch reached Braddock and had
I been wtlcomed he was hastily bundled
uuo waning automoDlle and driven
to Homestead, just across .the river,
where he was taken through the great
Homestead plant of the United States
Steel corporation. -
After his visit there- he was taken to
Soldiers' Memorial halL where, at 10 :30
o'clock, he was to receive honorary de
grees from the University of Pittsburg
and also from Duquesne university.
Later a series of dinners and recep
tions followed. At 3 , o'clock he is to
head a great military and civic parade
through the city.
