TWO
BUSINE =S IN BRAZIL
, ON UPWARD MOVE
Ric DPe Janeiro, Brazil, June 1,
(Correspondence of The Associated
Press.)—Business in Brazil, which
had been stagnated since the first of
October, 1918—a mont before the
signature of the armistice-has, since
the first of April shown marked indi
cations of an upward trend and a well
manifested optimism has taken the
place, among business men here in
terested in trade with the United
States, of the forebodings which many
of them expressed one or two
months ago.
A canvass of the leading bankers
and American commercial r«-prnn(-nm-i
tives in Rio de Janeiro recently hasa‘
brought out the fact that the old order
of transactions on a free and un
panicky basic has begun. ]mportfir:z‘
are placing orders for new stocks in{
limited quantities and a fair share of
them are going to American firms and
factories. |
BBrizilian commerce, hoth domestic
and foreign, has just weathered one
of the most severe storms in its his
tory and the very few business failure
which resulted was considered re
markable by both local and foreign
business men. The crisis was due to
a number of calamities which follow
ed one another in rapid succession.
The freezing of about 60 percent of
the mature coffee trees was the first
followed closely by the appointment!
of a Government Food Commission
which was obliged to arbitrartily fix
prices upon certain raw materials for
industry notably cotton, The textile
industry was hard hit by this action
and the loss of eonfidence unumgi
distributors of their product. ‘
Karly in October the influnza epi
cersic closed mills and purulyzmll
irade and this was followed by um‘
signature of the armistice, with n(
general anticipation of a drop in'
prices in all staple commodities. :
“iortly after the close of hostilitie:
came a deluge of deliveries on crders
placed in the United States oe much
as a rear before and the whoic.inle
caneceilations which resuled were
dus 10 the fact that the Braziiian
merchant had to choose between
cancellation or extens‘on and bank
ruptey. o chose the former in most
cases. 'he large stocks which ac
cumulated ifrought this perior of
stanation are now bheing worked off
and buyers are again bheginning to
secure quotations from ahbroad.
WRANGLE OVER ADMITTING
WOMEN TO PRIESTHOOD
. e
London, June 16, (Correspondence
of the Associated Press.)—Excitement
attended a debate in a public meet
ing held the other day in Church
House, Westminster, the headquar
ters of the Church of England, over
the question wheter women should be
admitted to the priesthood. The prin
cipal debaters were Miss Maude Roy
den, a leader of the movement here
for women clergy, and the Rev. A. G.
Magee, a staunch opponent of the
scheme.
Clergymen joined with laymen and
women in hissing, booing and cheer
ing, according to the side they took
“To admit women to the priest
‘ood,” the Rev. Mr. Magee declared,
“would be a revolution, not an evolu
tion. They cannot have a revolution
of that character until the whole
church has set its seal upon it and
God has approved of it.”
Hissing and cries of “shame!” greot
ed his discussion of the moral rela
tionships likely to rise between men
and women in the church if the latter
were admitted. “You cannot get away
from the sex question,” he said. “We
are made as we are, and that fact re
mains."”
Amid applause from his friends he
said he believed the granting of the
priesthood to woman “would make
her false to her master and false (o
her sex.”
“*Women,” argued Miss Rovden,
“desire women as priests, and their
admiscion to the priesthood would
make it much easier for women to get
help from the church.”
After quoting the New Testament
to hsow that the commission of the
priesthood was given to men and wo
men alike in the “Upper Room” at
Jerusalem, she continued:
“The head of the Church of Eng
land has not alwavs been a man.
Queen Elizabeth, Queen Anne and
Queen Victoria were all supreme
heads of the church.” |
“No! No!” shouted many voices. |
“I am sorry if vou don't like it
Miss Royden told the protesting ele
ment, “but it is so.”
She went on to affirm the fund;r‘
mental differences between men and
women were not a bar to women's |
entry into the priesthood. “Women."
she concluded, *desire to conform
more nearly to the ideal laid down by
hrist. He laid down nothing and
suggested nothing that divided men |
and women in the vocation of pri»sl-‘
hood” No vote was taken on the
subject,
' JAPAN CLAIMS INTERESTED
| IN CAUSE OF RIGHT
Tokie, June 3.-—(Correspondence
of The Associated P'ress.)—-Japan oe
cupied at the Peace Conference a
special position-she was disinterest.
(ed iil the problems concerned wiih
the Occident but greatly interested
’in the questions bhound up wth the
Far BEast—Takashi Hara, the Prime
Minister, has told the editor of a
French magazine published at Tokie
The Premier said.:
“Japan went to the Peace Con
ference with the desire to take an ac
tive part in its work and to partisi
‘paw in all questions that might arise.
‘\V?hy’.' Because Japan is s‘ncerecly at
tached to the cause of right and
}justi(:o. She has proved it by closely
ccoperating with the Allies and by
subscribing without reserve to the
tourteen propositions of President
Wil¢on; she never hesitated to join
with the promcters of the lLeague of
Nations.
“Like- the French, Kngiisi and
American peoples, we wish a per
manent peace, hetter and more open
relations between nations, a happier
humanity. And we believe we are in
a good position to judge things from
the point of view of justice and riuhlf
hbecause we had fever interests un
der discussion than Furope and 1In"
United States. Our attitude is im-‘
partial and our delegates at I’.‘u'i.-!l
showed the good faith, sincerity :uul‘
openness of our politics. |
“However, violent criticisms huv'-§
addressed us. Japan hoy been rt'pr«u;
sented as an amb'tious, war luvim:,?
aggressive nation. The m‘(-('w-l!illfl‘
cabinet suffered the same accusa |
tions which were not merited, | r':m?
assure you my government is doing
its best not to cause discontest; !ni
disregard proceedings which ml;;llt\
be thought to hear a rv|m~lu-n:»:iw-,‘
character. The Peace Conference lm:;!
;:fi'vn us an occasion to show we \\'«'rui
not guilty of what had bheen ru-“

ENGLAND TO REPLACE
SCRIPT BY PRINT WRITING
Londen, June 17, Corrasponcence
of the Assaciated Press ) =To aholish
cevipt writing and replace it by print
writitg is tne purpose of an influen
tially supported movement hegun in
this couniry. Advocates »f the chanmze
contend that the present gystem fails
t 0 stand the test of commercial life
m England and causzes a great loss of
time and labor.
Tre characters used ia the proposed
cvatem are the ordinary printed ot
ters, known as Roman block letiers
with the excoptions of the “a’” ang "
whicii are gimplified into their script
forms. The print characters were
mployed bv monvs long before geript
ting came into fashion and cun
stilh be seen 1n ancient monuzeripts
from which, in fact, they wera first
copied by the printor,
Advocates of print writing clain it
nossesreg many advantages over ordi
nary handwriting, especially to the
tcacher that, the same characters be
ing employed bhoth for writing and
reading, the child learns much more
quickly, and it is further asserted that
his spelling and his education as a
whele are correspondingly bhenefited,
Many British educational authoritios
‘avor print writing and it is taught
numerous British schools. No time
s wasted in the new system on innum
rable joinings. Superflous lcops and
ourishes are abolished.
One big London firm has adopted
he cystem and other concerns are
