Any senator or representative at Washington who would for a moment entertain such foolish and freak legislation, should be im- , VC ediately called home by his or their constituents and be replaced : . i . Rosemary Carnarvon Sparkman you Illlllllllllllinmii i , WOMANS CLUB NOTES William E. Borah of Idaho has been named chairman of the foreign relations committee; the most important committee in the gjji of the people of the United States. Borah is the first senator west of the Mississippi river to attain this honor, and it is a big boost for Idaho to have such a great man in Congress. Borah has been one of the most outstanding figures in American history of late. He is all American and he was one of the most bitter in the fight against this country joining the League of Nations, always contending that this country can do more for man and world peace by remaining aloof from European countries whose form of government and mode of. life are so vastly different to ours. Borah is well versed in international law and he will be able to administer our foreign relations with dispatch and in a businesslike way. Idaho may well be proud of her great statesman. , At the general meeting of the Ladies Literary which met yesterday afternoon, Modern Poetry was the subject of discussion.

WHERE IS LEAGUE? Without regard to the League of Nations, for advice or otherwise, England technically declares war upon Egypt because Major General Sir Lee Oliver Stack was murdered in Egypt. English battleships and English troops are in Egyptian territory ready to enforce the demands of England. After all the League of Nations is a scrap of paper and is tossed to the four winds at will. We are still wondering why Europe is so anxious to get us into their league a league for which they have so far showed no respect for. Might is right after all. If Egypt had a big navy and a large standing army there would be another, story to tell today, but for the lack of these she will now be compelled to pay a big indemnity. Of course if it is shown that the Egyptian government was in any way connected with the recent murder of the English military man, then the Egyptian government should be made to pay. . of the variWe still maintain that if there is ous races of peoples, there would be very few wars ; but just so long as we want the other fellow's territory, just so long will bloody wars be encouraged. Nations are no different from individuals. Each want their liberty and to live in their own way without interference from the outside or domination. self-determinat- ion . FORDS VIEW All parties were beaten, one them before, the others at the election. What won was the peoples confidence in the type of mind, and quality action which are found in the man elected President. He is given four years to see if he can do what parties have promised and failed to do. He cannot command progress, but he can clear the beway. Progress is not political, but there is sore need of politics coming progressive. Only up to a certain point is prosperity political. Confidence in: the Excutiver releases ,prospe!rity-makin- g energies, but docs not create them. Prosperity has always been the politicians &cuse for neglecting the main job. The people trust that it will not be so with Mr. Coolidgc. A system so organized that prosperity is the exception and not the rule needs overhauling. It is that task which makes winning an election in 1924 so serious a matter. Henry Ford.
