Clemenceau Says America Has Best
Frontiers Of Any Nation And
Needs Little Defense
I St. Louts.—Re-entry of America in
to European affairs, either as a mem
ber of "the league of nations or on
some other basis, was urged recently
by Georges Clemenceau, war prem
lsr of France, in his fourth address
?ii this country, delivered here before
a responsive audience.
The Tiger, summarizing what he
thought he had’ accomplished on his
/tour of America, declared he believed
he had convinced the country that
Frqnco was not militaristic nor im
perialistic, and that she had every in
tention of paying her debt to the Unit
ed States.
JuBt to make sure, however, ho re
peated arguments briefly on those
points before he launched into the
subject of American participation in
Old world affairs—the point, he said,
that he has -been most frequently ad
vised he will not be able to get across.
In the midst of his discussion of
militarism, ho reiterated the state-
nient that America showod signs of
militarism and launched into a criti
cism of hor naval policy.
“I do not intend to interfere in
your policy,” ho said, however, you lift
lerfored in mine (referring to the mili
tarism charges) and I think I have the
Tight to say that sometimes you were
very much inclined toward the devel
opment of your military establish
ments.”
“You have the best frontiers in the
world. They cannot be better. But
the other day you said you could not
leave one unprotected unless you had
600,000 tons of warships. That may
be. I will give you a million tons if
you want it, It is a way of spending
and wasting your money which is, of
course, at your disposition. I do not
beilbvq very much in capital warships
now, because there are submarines
and airplanes which make warships no
longer capital.
"England has ihcreasod her mill
tary power 19 per cent,” he continued,
"and Japan .71 per cent. Well, we will
see. I doubt whether I will Bee the
effect of this, but it may be the priv
ilego of some of you. We will see
what may come out/ of it."
Bootlegger Inspires Many Xmas Gifts

legger. Buy him a book, a cigar case
or a firecracker, guaranteed to hold

coat pocket. These are Santa’b latest
creations for Christmas gifts to be car
ried about. If you want to go a little
stronger, buy him athletic weights,
"100 pounds,” ^ but indeed unappropri-
ate for the gymnasium or morning ex

OUTLINES POLICY
Favors Fostering Strength Of RepublT<
Dy Just Legislation And Econ
omy At Home
Manchester, England.—George Har
vey, the American ambassador, speak
ing as the guest of honor re
cdntly before the Anglo-Americar
Society, outlined in six^ points whal
he considered o good formula for thl
national polity of the United States
The points as given by Mr. Harvey
wore:
1. To foster the strength of the re
public by just legislation abd economy
at home.
2. So preserve to the, nations of the
world the blessings of peace.
3. To strive to cultivate and main
tain a concert of Europe.
4. To avoid needless and entangling
engagements.
5. To acknowledge the’equal rights
of all nations.
6. The foreign policy of the United
States should always be inspired by
love of freedom.
Mr. Harvey, who responded to the
toast, "Cordial Relations,” said a very
few words would comprise a compre
hensively adequate response.
"The relations between Great Brit
ain and the United States, both /be
tween governments and peoples, odght
to be cordial, and they are,” said Mr.
Harvey. "They should continue to be
cordial, and they shall. What more
need be said? The toast has been pro
posed and t)ie response has been given.
Argument is unnecessary. The asser
tion is accepted and the incident is
closed.”
But having tersely disposed of the
subject of the toast, Mr. Harvey pro
ceeded to comment at some length on
the present industrial situation as com
pared with the period irilmediately fol
lowing the Napoleonic wars. The am
bassador emphasized that although the
conditions now weru admittedly bad,
they “are vastly better, both in fact
and promise,” than obtained “fifteen
long, drearlful years” following the Na
poleonic wars.
Speaking of trade conditions and
the exchange rate, the ambassador
quoted a list of figures. He declared
&
THE INEVITABLE EBB
that 20,000 pounds woflld buy more
foodstuffs from the United States
now than 25,000 pounds would have
bought a year ago. The chase of the
pound sterling after the dollar has
been a fascinating one, and, although
the pace of the pound sterling hi
somewhat slackened last summer, 11
stride had been resumed ancUtbe goal
parity, although hardly within strik
ing distance, nevtreheless, was lc
sight.

Kansas City, Moiv-”Write the sen

ty pupil in days gone by, and what
A task it was! But pity poor Thomas
Phillips, president of the board of pub

James R. Mann, Congressman, Passes.
Washington.—Representative. Jamet
R. Mann, of Illinois, died at his home
here after a brief illness. Tflr. Mann,
who had served for a quarter of a
century as a member of the house,
was stjjcken a week ago, first with
a chill, pneumonip developed, his con
dition became desperate, and the end
came. With him at the end were
Mrs. Mann and the physicians. It wag
said that although he had recentlj
passed two restless nights, his condi
tion did not definitely ^develop for the
worse untfl' a: short time before the
end camp. The end cam*., peaceful.
\X7 HEN the ebb tide comes, ap-
parently determined to sweep
you off your feet ami carry you .down
;c| the waiting sea; or when the storm
clouds darken the serene sky and ob
scure your bright, trustworthy guiding
star, summon all your courage and
hasten to reach the nearest friendly
port.
A map naturnlly thinks it. will go
hard with him if the tide turns and
sets against him.
If long accustomed, to good fortune,
fair winds nnd sunny weather, a
sudden burst of opposition nt its first
manifestation of energy appals him.
For years he has been mnldng rapid
progress, avoiding the reefs upon
which niany x of his intimates have
been wrecked.
When they sank beneath the growl
ing waters lie smiled complacently
nnd congratulated himself on his su
perior skill.
His craft was seaworthy, his vision
clear and his band unerringly sure.
But now, as the ebb froths in anger,
lie realizes tlmt ills boasted clever
ness was largely a matter of condi
tion with which his ability had noth
ing to do,-
He lias fallen back so long on the
thought that he was a superman, pos
sessed of extraordinary prowess, the
change alarms him.
The inevitable ebb fills Ills soul
with inexpressible terror.
Though he shuts his mouth hard
and says nothing lo Ills suspecting
wife, he cannot quell the sickening
fear.
' Danger lurks In the waves and In
the wind—in the very breath of idle
gossip.
Tlie shoals are marked by fretting
foam leaping high in the air, but the
night is dark. His nerve is undone.
•His once keen perception fails him.
And yet, if lie is a true man, or
a man In the making, this is the one
time In ills life when he will show
his mettle, grip the wheel with a
firmer hold, bend his back and reso
lutely face the snarling gale panting
In its effort to hurl his ship upon the
rocks.
In every life there Is a shipwreck
somewhere buried in the sands of
unforgotten years.
It tells the tale of a day that is
done, of fond hopes, that were swept
to sea and sucked under the waters
of the inevitable ebb, from which
no man can always steer clear, but
against which every brave man will
battle until he makes port.
