Bartender's Guide, but inquirers for jthe ingredients of cocktails you find now should be referred to the war department's experts on explosives. 0:0 Miss Alice Robertson, member of congress from Oklahoma, believes women have as much right to smoke as men have and this newspaper will go a step farther and say that they have as much right to ask their lov er to marry them as a man has to ask his lady for her hand in mar riage. Go to it girls, and exercise this .risht. You don't have to wait until leap year, anyiaore. "It at first you don't succeed, try, try again!" GENERALLY GO BROKE Joseph Letter, who cornered the wheat market in 1897, testifies in a New York court that the collapse of (his corner left , him $3,250,000 in : the hole. I That should interest the boys who, playing the grain market, which they could engineer a Leiter corner. j Everyone knows about that famous Leiter corner. How it turnea oui ior Its operator will amaze many. Spectacular success appeals to the public imagination, indelibly into memory. Too bad the public doesn't continue watching gambling success until it collapses. It might teach many a valuable lesson. Joe Leiter is recognized as about as good a grain operator as ever lived. He was what business writers call an "expert." The bigger they are the harder they fall. Gambling in stocks and grain that Is, plunging in speculation gets them all. It's only a matter of time. It gets you faster if you are an outsider, a financial moth. A good many people watch the stock market as "a barometer of general conditions." Many believe that .the stock market is a sort of supernatural ouija board with clair voyant powers that foresee the fut ure accurately. The market is supposed to go up or down about three to five months ahead of general business. This supposition is based on the fact that ticker quotations when the market isn't a professional one, manipulated to attract the come-ons, show how the big gamblers are bet ter. The epidemic of failures among brokerage houses reveals that, in the long run and on the law of averages, the gambler's guess is worth just about as much as the sheep's no more. The only real barometer of busi ness conditions is production suc"h as output of steel ingots, bituminous coal, grain movement to primary centers, exports, domestic cotton con sumption and mail order sales. The Wall Street Journal says a speculative craze Is developing. The brighter the flame, the hotter and more scorching. Small investors, who cannot afford to lose, had better keep their mon ey in liberty bonds. ' :o: THE RECORD DEBT The more we contemplate the sum that George Jones of San Jose, Cal., owes to Henry R. Stuart, the more we are overcome with wonder and admiration wonder that there is any such debt in the world, and ad miration for the self multiplying power of money that makes it pos sible. Stuart lent $100 to Jones, specify ing interest, . and Stuart finally brought suit. A court has computed the interest due, compounded month ly, and awarded the creditor a ver dict for the tidy little sum of $304,- 840,332,912,685. That debt is a legal obligation. All that Stuart has to do is to go ahead and collect it. He will then own the world, perhaps the universe. Shylock boasted that he made his ducats breed as fast as Laban's sheep. Here Shylock is out of run ning. It is a fine lesson on interest rates. The chief wonder, however, Is that any state still permits such usurious and ridiculous abuse of an institution essentially sound and useful. . If it took as much money to clothe a girl assistant in a racket store this editor would have to quit 'busi ness in ninety da3-s or else go to Florida, where he could wear a bath ing suit the year round. :o: There is said to be room in this country for only 90 million more people, and this room should be re served for Americans. :o: LUNGARDIA is "without a rival" In ordinary or deep-seated Coughs and Colds, difficult breathing, and for the relief of whooping cough.

The house of commons tonight, after an unexcit ing debate, adopted by the substan tial majority of 278 Premier Lloyd George's resolution calling for con fidence in the government's policy . on the coming economic conference !at Genoa. The vote was 372 to 94. Prior to this the house, by a vote of 379 to S4 rejected an amendment 'proposed by John Robert dynes, la j borite. which, while approving an in ternational economic and financial i conference, declared that the govern- mcnt was not competent to represent the country at such a conference and did not have the confidence of the country. This result is regarded as exceedingly satisfactory for the prime minister, as the combined lr-.boritcs and ' independent liberals number about 100 and the "die hards" about fifty, all of whom might have been expected to oppose the premier's reso lution. The prime minister's speech invit ing parliament to vcta confidence in the government's Genoa policy was noteworthy inasmuch a it touched only lightly upon the political crisis at home and because it indorsed the French policy toward Russia, al though Mr. Lloyd George himself dis played much sympathy for an entire ly conciliatory attitude toward Rus sia, and further in that it sought ac commodation with the soviet govern ment, lest by waiting it might even tually be necessary to deal with a still more irreconcilable or militar istic regime which might embroil the whole of Europe. Would Demand Guarantees While emphasizing that nothing could be gained by waiting for the overthrow of the soviet administra tion, the prime minister accepted the French standpoint, demanding guar antees with respect to Russia's debt's and obligations and stipulating a period of probation of six months or a ye?r. but less if Russia pave th ncccsrary guarantees, before full recognition was accorded. The pre mier indicated his belief in the in- sincerity of the conversion of Nikolai Lenine and the soviet to a diluted form of communism. Perhaps the most interesting of at exchans 'should be "BtaDIlfze,i at some maintainable fijrure, but no details were given as to how he pro posed to eiTet this, except that it might be attained by some form of international co-operation and pres- sure. The debate which followed the premier's speech was rather tame. It -1..
