T oday Lloyd George on France. SI00,00(1.000 Hutting. Our If ell Managed Earth. When to Sell Umbrellas. ARTHUR BRISBANE^ Everybody in Washington prob ably read Lloyd George’s latest article on Europe; published Sun day, and that’s a good thing. Referring to 15 years imprison ment for the head of the Krupp factory by order of the French military court Lloyd George says: "There's a swagger of brutality f\bout that sentence which betokens recklessness.” Hb says also of France: "Rus sian arrogance in its crudest days furnished no such example of clumsy*arid short-sighted inepti tude.”* Whatever Americans may think of European conditions and re cent action by the French, it is important for them to know what Lloyd George thinks. His is the intelligence that took England and some of the other nations through the war, and he will be the Eng lish leader in the war that is com ing, if he lives. Lloyd George believes that war on the greatest scale is coming, with France as the moving mili tary power. These are the last words of the article that was printed Sunday: “No wonder Marshal Foch is touring Central Europe to put the allied armies in order. He seems to be the one man in France who has an understanding of what all this is leading up to." That statement should be read carefully by President Harding. Are the nations of Europe now in such shape as would enable them to establish a “world court” whose decisions Americans would he willing to accept as final in re gard to American affairs? The attitude of France toward England and the United States Lloyd George puts bluntly, thus: “Meanwhile, the British empire ^nd the United States of America, who, at prodigious cost*in life and treasure, saved France frim a simi lar humiliation to which she is now inflicting Germany, are practi cally told when they venture to offer suggestions, to mind the.r own business. No interference will be tolerated from meddlers of any sort.” Col. W. Jefferson Davis, United States legal adviser in Europe, rep resenting the War department at the congress of international aviation legislation, supplies facts that interest the American people and government, iri view of new wars that are threatening Fiance has 5,000 airships, in’ first-class condition, ready for war at a moment's notice. They drop 1.000-kilogram shells. 100 times as'destructive as the shells used at the beginning of the late war. Here in the United States we have $100,000,000 worth of fly ing machines unused, rusting away, as our hi 11 ion dollars worth of ships are rusting at their docks. There is plenty of work for American statesmen to do here in the United States, without wander ing over to Europe looking for oc cupation. This eurth is well and evenly managed. You are reminded of it when you read of the terrific rain fall at Beaumont, Tex., 13 inches in two hours. Streets were flooded, telephone girls and others went to work in their bathing suits. “Jit ney” motor boats appeared in the streets, street cars stopped. Constantly there are above our heads endless millions of tons of water. If the mass should fall to gether, cities would' be swept into the sea and the human race washed away like ants hefore a garden hose. Nature takes up the water in mist, send* it down a drop at a time and keeps us safe. Teachers, through newspapers, ought to scatter knowledge as na ture scatters rain, one drop at a time, easily absorbed. Sodalists are planning a national labor party. Several groups would be fused for the coming campaign. Such a party would depend for success on had times. When it is raining you can sell umbrellas. With times bad, wages low and jobs scarce, something might he done with a “national labor party.’’ Rut with rough, unskilled labor making $6 a day, and skilled labor making from *11 to $30 with bonuses and extras, it wouldn’t be easy to interest labor in any new party. Rid you notice Henry Ford's short reply to a reporter who asked him whether he expected to he elected president. “They would never allow that,” replied Ford. Asked what he meat l by "they,” Mr. Ford declined to go into de tails. There are several possibili ties, but the big “they” are the gentlemen thtat once went out from Wall street to Detroit to tell Ford how they planned to manage his business after lending him $60,000,000. They were shown ♦ he'door ndt boo politely add it. hurt their feelings. Resides, they say, “Ford is financially not sound.” Wall street arid its hranchees throughput the country have a good deal 'to sav about nominations and elections. And “they” won’t he exactly booming Henry Ford in 1924. You will find that, when election day comes around in 1924, the re publicans will have edged a long way off from the world court and the League of Nation .

Sprciitl Disputf-h to Tlip Omalm Iter. Bincoln, May 21.—Governor Bryan asserted he had received Information certain interests were making efforts to persuade university authorities to i carry on n campaign of education to induce farmers to eradicate tuber culosis in cattle through ns» of sh* ■ funds appropftated for that purpose "I do not believe it is the duly of I a state* educational Institution to use ; its funds to take part in a raid on the treasury," the governor said. '"No funds were appropriated to the univer sity for that purpose and if any one ; connected with that educational in stitution has so far forgotten his duties as to carry on such work. 1 wish to he advised about it." The legislature, in the face of tlie governor's avowed opposition, passed a bill, separate from- the general ap propriation bill, appropriating $285,000 for eradication of bovine tuberculosis. Tile appropriation was not recom mended by the governor. Hence 60 ' ntes were needed to pass it. Through efforts of Representatives Theodore (•sternum and Henry Bock, demo crats, sufficient democratic votes were mustered in the holies to pass the hill. However, it was admitted* that if Hie governor would veto the Idll the two-thirds votes necessary to oveV ride the \eto couldn't h** mustered. But he didn't veto it. The hill be came a law without his signature. The governor was asked today why he didn't veto the appropriation which he declared was a raid on the treas ury. He replied: "Recause 1 do not think the governor has a moral right to use his official position to veto a hill that plainly had the support of such a large majority of the legis lature The governor, in fact, has no power to veto this bill, according to general interpretation of the aemnded state constitution " A number of prominent attorneys in Lincoln assert lie had the power to veto it. This bill had seven more votes in the lower house than the Mathers D.vsart governmental reform bill which the governor vetoed in short order. Motion Denied in Stockyards Case ► ( . S.
