Harding vs Harvey Ambassador Harvey declared in London that America's entry into the war was purely selfish, to save our own skins. To quote his words: "We sent our soldiers solely to save the United States and most reluctantly and niggardly at that. We were not too proud to fight. We were afraid not to fight. That is the real truth of the matter." Harvey voices the inspiration of the senate cabal which defeated the peace treaty and the motives which annimated those to whom patriotism was synonymous with profiteering, not the inspiration that vitalized the nation during the struggle. He is the seamy reverse side of victory, in which commercialism has replaced altruism the reaction from exalted idealism to sordid selfishness. Though the official mouthpiece of the administration, Colonel Harvey evidently did not speak for it, for at the first opportunity, his utterances-were repudiated by the president, who before the coffins of 5,000 of the nation's dead, said : "These heroes were sacrificed in the supreme conflict of all human history. They saw civilization threatened and rescued it They saw America affronted and resented it. iney saw our Nation's rights imperilled and stamped those rights with a new sanctity and renewed security. They gave all that men and women can give. We shall give our most and best :t naruir, That xhtv Hid not die in vain." It is evident that Harvey voiced tne sentiments 01 t cynical senate leaders who have arrogated to themselves control of foreign affairs, and not of Harding and Hughes who constitutionally control them. The sooner the president asserts his leadership by recalling Harvey, the better for his administration.

He gave me a kind, humane greeting and talk ed with me freely. He read the bill then threw it On the table, saying: "It's not worth the paper it's written on. If you ever get that bill through, you will have to cut out all that trash and get down to as few things as possible. Leave Psychology, Wasserman test fees, standards and ail such things that Bab's Surprise With returning physical strength, I began to think over the problem of picking up the broken threads of my life again and weaving them into some sort of a protection for "Hallie boy.' I found upon inquiry tnat nai had had straight insurance ioi $10,000, and an accident poncy , for $30,000. This wouia give me S40.000 not enough to live dh comfortably unless I was able to inveat it in some sort ot business or able to earn something to help out. , Of course my fattier was ex tremely anxious for me to stay at home. Dear old dad, he was al ways so lmmerBed in business that one went to mother with every thing, but when it was necessary for him to do some great thing to help out the family, he was al ways there. He had been a tower of strength to us all. Of course It was out of the question for me to live at home. I decided to invest $30,000 in some safe bonds, and take the $10,000 to help me live while I was trying to gain a foothold as a writer. I was more than ever determined to do this because , , Bab had found among my papers in her P. S.

I Hould jot make it seem that it was really true. I tried to remember what I had written in that Btory, but I could only recollect that it was born out of my great heart's tra vail at a time when I had expect ed much and found little in mar riage.. Bah came bacK shortly bring ing me the letter. It read: "Dear Madam: Your story is unique and very human. I could wish it was a little more cheerful, but we have decided to print It, because of its style and freshness of viewpoint. I shall be very glad indeed to read anything else you may send. "Sincerely yours, "Itojand Early, Editor." "Isn't it wonderful, Bab?" I enthused. "But he must think that I am very stupid not to have ans wered his letter."

Perhaps a little sketch of this much-abused child might fit in here. After making up my mind that 1 would go to the Legis lature with a bill, I went to Port land last November and spent a good deal of time among friends, doctors, social and hygiene asso ciations, trying to get encourage ment and help. I got no encoura gement or help, and was told that education must precede leglsla latlon. All had advice to give as to how the bil must be drawn. At last It- was framed up. It con tained all the essentials, nothing left out. I had been to Salem be fore and counseled with Dr. Smith superintendent of feeble minded. He said: Doctor, when you are jl I m Why did you tell me?" 'It didn't come back." "What!" "You don't mean to say that some one has taken my story?" I asked eagerly.

I'm awiullf glad you sent it. It answers a question I've been asking myself for a week." "Oh, but wait, Alix; I've some thing better to tell you.
