The Pact Is Signed.

(Copyright, 11)28, by Star Co.)
The Kcllogs,' peace pact is
signed. What will the United
States do with it!
Germany signed first, nnd
Brinnd, brilliant Frenchman,
spoke cordially oE Stresemann,
the German statesman and
praised Secretary Kellogg, call
ing Woodrow Wilson Mr. Kel
logg's "illustrious forerun-
Brinnd supposed the pact
was signed in France, "thanks
to her constant effort in the
cause of pence." The constant
efforts' of Napoleon first and
Napoleon third were not ex
actly in the cause pence.
But they represented their
own vanity, not the real
French people.
J, L
I That peace pact, for the "re-1
Aiiiiicintion of war" is sincerely j
meant. If it has no strings,
attaching us to the League of
Nation, it will he acceptable
to the American people.
But they will notice that
Europe's armies today are big
eer than in 1013 before the
great war.
Three million men are under
arms in Europe' now; other
hundreds of thousands hnve
been called to the colors for
training. Swift mobilization is
1 practiced. ;
France has OSC.OOO men un
der arms; Italy 347,000; Eng
land 408,000. Germany and
Russia alone have reduced
Germany from 800,000 to 100,.
000; Russia from .1,200,000 to
1)00,000.
There is plenty of powder
ready for the match. This
country should think of prep
aration besides talking of
sweet, pence.
Ki V. C. Iiirant, nutomo
bile manufacturer, who be
lieves prohibition a good
thing,' offers $25,000 for the
best- essay, not 'longer than
2,000 words, telling how to en
force the Eighteenth amend
ment. f-f
Mr. Durant, paraphrasing
Abraham Lincoln, wonders
whether our "institutions can
endure-M'ith a citizenship half
i i..U! i i,.,.o)
The: answer is "Yes, it can."
The prosperous class has us
ually done much as it pleased.
H doesn't break little. ! laws
about, pocket picking and
stealing. It doesn't need to.
It not only breaks but despises
and teaches its children to de
spise a prohibition law that in
terferes with its pleasure.
If lawmakers really meant
to enforce prohibition, which
they don't mean, they would
make purchase of alcoholic
drinks a felony, punished by
imprisonment and heavy fine,
fines to be divided by boot
leggers giving information, the
informers going scot free.
Respectability is willing to
break the law with the aid of
n bootlegger, but wouldn't run
the risk of being blackmailed
I by the bootlegger afterward.
Prohibition can be enforced if
majority of the people want it.
they don't want it, it cannot
enforced.
Changing a people's habits by
is not easy. The old French
l'ig could not even prevent hi
fcjectn wearing shoes with toes
' long that they had to be bent
fcckward and upward and tied to
Mr knees.

HOT smiNOH, Ark.. Aug. 29.--(P)
Viuifcutird of tho thousands ex
pected hero to witness the sight of
a southerner receiving notification
of his selection for a place on the
prpsliienliiil ticket of one of the,
nation's major parties today was
streaming into this quiet little
mountain city.
The majority of early arrivals
came from homes south of the
Mason-Dixon line, like that of the
man ilicy have come to honoi
Senator Joe T, Robinson of Arkan
s:ih, who will he notified formally
tomorrow that he . is the demo
cratic party's vice presidential
nominee.
Nearly all who already arrived
scarcely had unpacked their suit
cases before they began inquiries
wli:t llii no mi nee was r-
pocted to say in his acceptance nd-
"Whtit about prohibition?" that
was the main question of those
who wish to know how the sena
tor, always a consistent supporter
of temperance laws, will deal with
the subject so fully covered by his
running mate, Gov. Alfred JO.
Smith of New York, the presiden
tial nominee.
Kami relief shared with prohibi
tion the spotlight of advance spec
ulation. It has been indicated for
some Xlmy that Senator Robinson
Will shoulder much of the burden
of this issue. While Governor
Hmith has outlined Ills idea for the
aid of agriculture it is expected
that much of the. .campaign, work,
will be turned over to the vice
presidential candidate who is fa
miliar with the subject from long
years in tho senate.
In the meantime preparations
were being pushed toward comple
tion of arrangements for the cere
monies at the Arlington, hotel.
Stands with seating capacity of
24.000 stretched across the natural
amphitheater in front of tho hotel.
Workers were busy atlj listing the
amplifiers over the spe a k e r's
stands, and others completed t he
Installation of flood lights. The
amplifiers were tested and the
hills surrounding J lot Springs
proved to hv efficient sounding
hoards, sending the voice of the
trial speaker booming over the
center of the city.
Senator Itohlnson yesterday de
voted much of his attention to a
speech he will deliver in Dallas
next Monday at a big Labor day
meeting. In this address which he
has announced will open his cam
paign formally, the senator will
deal at length with labor and farm
relief questions.
The vice presidential nominee
expects to accomplish much work
on his schedule of speeches before
he starts next week on . tho cam
paign tour during which he will
make 14 addresses through the
south.
NEW YORK. Aug. 20. (P)
Governor Alfred K. Smith, with
members of his family and a few
friends left here this morning for
Syracuse to visit the state fair. He
will go to Albany tomorrow, re.
maltilng nt the executive mansion
until after abor day.
The governor's daughter, Mrs.
Francis J. Qulnlan, is en route to
Hot Springs, Ark., for Senator Joe
T. Robinson's notification of his
nomination for vice president.
MEET A FIZZLE
PORTLAND, Ore.. Aug. 23. (JP)
A meeting of Tammany democrats
nt which candidates were to have
been named for county offices not
already filled on the democratic
ballot, and two Justices of the su
preme court and other judges were
to hnve been named; fell flat late
today.
The meeting, called by Gilbert
Hamaker, president of the Tam
many club, failed to attract 100
persons, the number required to
make the nominating assembly
legal. The 40 men present dis
cussed plans for nnother meeting,
nt which nominations will be made
if a quorum te present.
NEW YORK, Aug. 29. (ff)
There peems to he no mystery
about this. Paul Mellon, son of
the secretary of the treasury, and
two Yale chums, Franci Carmody
nnd Jn m es I trad y , had a secret
presidential poll all to themselves
on tho way home from abroad. All
the news they would rpveal was
that the tabulation showed one vote
for Hoover and two for timlth, .

SEATTT-M, Aug. 20. (P) Posi
tive identification of bits of leath
erette upholstery found on the
beach of Discovery bay, near Port
Townsend, as from the ill-fa Led
Hritish Columbia Airways plane
which vanished Saturday with sev
en persons aboard, was made hurt
today by O. C. George, Seattle rep
resentative of the Hritlsh Colum
bia Airways, JAU.
"There Is no question nhout H,'
George said, as he examined the
greenish material. Bits of a com
position material with a sliver gray
finish, were said by George to have
been part of the wull covering of
the inside of the plane's cabin.
A wicker chair washed up by the
tide early today on the northern
shore of Fort Point or Point Ueek
ett, wos believed by Oeorge to def
initely establish Discovery bay as
the watery grave of the plane. J.
Ernest Eve, president of the air
ways company, who was aiding the
searchers for the plane, also was
convinced that the chair' was from
the death ship.
Drugging and shore patrolling
operations were .Intensified with
the finding of the wreckage. The
bodies of the five pussengers and
two pilots prohnbly are in the
cabin of tho plane, Oeorge said.

employed In the orchards and

disclosing just what effect, if any,
tho opening of the public schools
on September 4, would have, was
completed yesterday by IMlss Curui
Kamsoy, accompanied hy Mrs.
Esther Van Camp Kliegel.
Thirty orchard and lfi packing
houses were visited in making
this survey, which showed con-
clUHlvely to Siincrinteiulont
rick that the opening of the high
school next week will not mate
nultv affect the local fruit har
vesting and shipping situation.
Miss Kamsey found a total of
ki mgn school suiuems emiuuyu,
50 In the packing houses and 3u
in tho orchards. This small num
ber, compared with the expected
registration of 7"0 or over in the
senior school, and of 4T.0 or more
in the Junior high school, the
school officials hold would not
justify any delay In the scheduled
opening of the schools next Tues
day. However, superintendent
Hedrlck thinks It unlikely that
"wo hove been able to enlist th-j
exact number of high school stu
dents employed in the fruit har
vest." Then, too, the packers feel
thnt tho peak of the fruit season
will be ovor hy September 4 and
that less labor will be needed from
then on.
In making the survey yesterday,
at one or two of the orchards
visited, the owners or managers
felt that probably a few more em
ployes could he used later, hut
the majority of the owners or
managers thought thnt less would
he needed.

In u formal statement, Raskob

HOOVER AT
WORK UPON
PARTY PLAN
East and South Issue Call
for Organization First
Report On G. 0. P. Fi
nances Due Soon Wild
Democratic Claim Denied.
Tly James h. West, Associated
Press Staff Writer
' WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 --())
Ci'ohh currents of advice und opin
ion ure bearing down upon Mer
hert Hoover as he busies himself
here determining campaign policies
and deciding mutters of strategy
of organization.
These come largely from east
and south, but sumo from tho
west, as the republican presidential
candidate confers; with his chief
advisers from the various hoc l ions
and once gets his grip firmly upon
the controls of the party machin
ery. With the return of Hoover from
the west (here has been an increas
ing pressure from New York nnd
Now England for greater activities
in those sections. The set up of
the eastern organization never has
boon precisely described and ap
parently there are several groups
operating more or less independ
ently. One aet of managers now ad
vises a general, headquarters for
tho east and New York City while
others propose that the fight in
New York and New Jersey he car
ried on under a directing force dis
tinct from one to have charge of
affairs in New England and es
pecially In states like Massachus
etts and Hhocle Island where Dm
democrats are concentrating their
efforts. -
There also is an increasing de
mand from the south for more ef
fective, organization j work ihtye. .
In that section too, somu advisors
would have the effort concentrar-,
ed largely In thoso stotes where
locnl leaders claim Hoover senti
ment has heen manifested.
These nre some of the major
problems Hoover must dispose of
while ho is working out plans feu
his personal participation in the
campaign, which, If is becoming
more and more evident, is likely
to be upon a much more extensive
scale than he contemplated even
as late as tell days a-;o.
Another subject to which the
nominee will nddress himself this
week Is that of parly finances. He
has called In J, H. Nntt of Cleve
land, national treasurer, and oth
ers in charge of money matters.
The republican party has pledged
Itself to make frequent reports dur
ing tho campaign as to income and
outgo and the first of these is
