SAFETY OF ALIENS PROBLEM Early Action of Powers in China Is Held Necessary. Washington, D. C. Suported by specific presidential approval of the policy he has mapped out for dealing with the Chinese problem, Secretary Kellogg was back from his interrupt ed vacation Monday awaiting results of conferences in Pekin and elsewhere through which the protocol powers are expected to work out ways and means of insuring the protection of their nationals in Ciina. There was no indication that the diplomatic conversations in various capitals had as yet reached a stage where the exact course to be followed could be forecast. As Mr. Kellogg himself pointed out after his confer ence with President Coolidge last week at the summer White House, the policy of (lie Washington government was based on the desire to give ef fect to the commitments into which it had entered with respect to China at the Washington arms limitation conference. The chief features of those com mitments, in view of present condi tions in China, relate to a resolution calling for the creation of a commis sion to study and report on the ques tion of reliriauisliing extra-territorial ights in China, on the one hand, and I lie treaty engagement for a revision of Chinese customs rates on the other. With relation to the extra-territorial questions the Washington government has confined its suggestions to the other powers to the proposal that the lommisslon, provided for by resolu tion No. 5 adopted by the Washington (inference, be appointed at an early date so a beginning can he made on what is certain to be a long process of discussion and debate. All of the gov- rnments whose nationals are iuvolv d in the Chinese disturbances are signatory lo that resolution.

C Another contro versy between the administration and congress on the method of tax reduc tion Is Impending. As was the case last year, when the Mellon plan was rejected, sur taxes will "constitute the principal fighting point, with the inheritance taxes as a new element in the dis agreement. President Coolidge has mado clear his position that there should be a very substantial reduction in both of these taxes and administration lead ers in congress have indicated that his program will have more cohesive support from their ranks than was ap- I STATE NEWS t !

While agreeing that some reduc Hon in the surtax and inheritance J rates is desirable, some leaders at least among the democrats and tin republican insurgents who combined to defeat the Mellon plan are inclin ed to tho view that there are other fuctors which should have first at tention, While they have as yet had no con ferences for exchanges of views, these leaders are giving study to a proposal outlined recently by Chairman Cou zens of the special senate tax in vestigatlng committee for repeal of the nuisance taxes and of the levies on small incomes, with a reduction then as far as might be in the surtax rate. Indications now are that in the coming fight between the executive and legislative branches the lines are not going to be drawn as sharply as they were a year ago. When the new congress convenes in December the republican organization will find itself with a nearer approach to an actual working majority than it has had in a number of years. There are also signs that the democrats will be less a unit on the larger question of policy than they were at the time of the enactment of the last revenue measure. The actual amount of tax reduc Hon which the administration rec ommends will depend in a very large measure upon the actual and indi cated treasury surplus. Whether the negotiations soon to be entered into by this country with Fiance, Italy and Belgium progress to the point whero their results can be translated Into the new tax law remains for future determination. The interest on these debts, if refunded in this same terms as was the British debt, would approximate in excess of $200,000,000 annually. Gotham Growing Safer. New York.

XX7HKN you are dejected and shad T ows darkeu your spirit; when the sun has lost its cheer, and the beauty and the fragruaee uf the flowers are gone, it is time to look about for a new domain. It is not so much a new physical domain that you need as u new mental domain, where thoughts are changed and Joyous visions troop gaily by against unfamiliar background. The old notion that when one Is tired out in body and brain, one needs to recuperate in strange lands, Is taboo. To dismiss customary routine, vex ing thoughts, Is really the principal thing to do. When you can do this you will discover to your delight that your former energy responds to your call with an alacrity that is astonish ing. Rest does not consist of indolence. Idleness dulls the mind of customnrlly Industrious men and women, and In duces another form of dissatisfaction and weariness which Is frequently more exasperating and nerve-racking than is mental or physical labor. You may not be conscious of it, but when you realize thut you are tired through and through, you are in a rut from which you must pull yourself out by your own exertion, aided by faith in your strength to do so, Change your diet, add an extra hour to your sleep before midnight, depart from customary amusements, pursue an entirely different course In reading, seek out old friends whom you have for some cause or another long neg lected, take brisk walks in the open air, bathe In the sunshine, and In n short time you will be amazed at the improvement in both your bodily and mental prowess. You will find that the old sluggish ness has been lost somewhere along the way, that your mentality Is more alert, that there Is a new r.est In life, a stronger beat of the heart, two brighter eyes and two cheeks of a rosier hue whose reflection In the looking-glass Is a delight to behold. And the most gratifying part of all may be the thought that you wrought the wonderful change by your own will without spending anything except your energy, which needed the changes to stir It up and start It go ing again at its customary gait. l(B br McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) THE YOUNG LADY ACROSS THE WAY npliK children of the family being very Important members, should be thoughtfully fed. The English custom of having a table of their own, where they are not permitted any compromise between what they ought to have and what they want, is ideal. The result Is sturdy, healthy youngsters. This sys tem is followed In some measure here, but the most from necessity; others fron indifference allow the children to eat at the family table, often having food that is extremely bad for them, because they cry for it. For the sake of Immediate peace, they are indulged witli a sacrifice of manners, morals and physique. The average mother cannot serve two sets of meals, so It is necessary that for the good of the children such food as they may eat should be served. Fortunately the young child who has never been pam pered will need but little variety to stimulate the appetite. Taught early to like and eat all kinds of vegetables, the bai tie though fierce, will be short. Men and women are much more healthy, easy to live with and pleas anter to entertain who have been trained in youth to like all kinds of good food. Mashed Potatoes With Peanut Butter. Mash, season and whip boiled pota toes until light and fluffy. Heap into a hot vetgetable dish and dot with spoonfuls of peanut butter which has been blended with dairy butter.

Rhubarb Pudding. Cut fresh rhubarb into small pieces, mix with sugar and put Into a baking dish with well-buttered bread, left In slices or cut into cubes. Set in the oven to bake until the rhubarb Is soft. Serve hot or cold. Lettuce with a plain French dress ing Is a salad which may be given the children. Plenty of spinach, beet greens and water cress, as well as other green ienf vegetables are Inval uable to the growing child. (S. 1925, V.itr- O -.ot.er Union.)
