More Trouble. Why Mix In? Feared and Fed the Rats. Russia Is Reading. ^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^ Continued trouble in Europe. France will reject Germany’s offer of $300,000,000 in gold yearly. She won’t even discuss it, in spite of England’s and Japan's desire for a settlement. The German mark falls so low that you can buy almost 100,000 for $1. And the franc falls also, show ing that the mark is its Siamese twin. President Harding, whose earn est sincerity all admire, says no nation can live in isolation, which means, presumably, that we can’t live apart from some working ar rangement with Europe. If that be isolation, we have it now, and it doesn’t seem to be hurting us much. When we see those “blood brothers and gallant allies,’’ England and France, re fraining with great difficulty from insulting each other, tve should not be' tempted to lose our isola tion. Mrs. Mary Tobin of Jersey >City was found yesterday feeding sev eral hundred rats in her attic, and was taken to the hospital for ob servation. She explained that she fed them because she was afraid they would bite her. If feeding rats were a sign of insanity, the whole world might be called insane, for it feeds rats to the financial tune of hundreds of millions a year and suffers dis eases that rats carry and spread. A little common sense, plus cement and copper, and the use of gas in the holds of arriving ships would settle the rat question if nations would combine. But nations combine only in small grbups, and then to destroy each other—never to help each other. Bolshevism has been teaching Russia to read. At least half of the Russians can read now, as against 20 out of a 100 under the czars. Books sell there in great quantities, more than in the Unit ed States. Jaures, in his admirable address to tho teachers of France, em phasized the fact that in educa • tion the one important thing is teaching children to read intelli gently. Reading opens the door to all knowledge and supplies material for thinking. And thinking in the end will solve all problems, even Russia's hard problem. Heligoland, picturesque island, was loaded by the kaiser with fortifications and heavy guns. All that has been*blasted into the sea. The guns will be replaced by a gambling house to compete with Monte Carlo. The Mont St. Michel, off the French coast, bear* on its island summit one of the most beauti ful of churches, and below, at the 1 water’s edge, a little chapel, where sailors of the channel, generation after generation have prayed for a quiet sea. That island is to be deprived of the causeway that unites it to the mainland and is to become a base for French flying machines. The spirit of the saint will look down from the top of the rocky island, and from that top up into the clouds above at French machines made to carry TNT and deadly gas able to destroy London, Liver pool and Manchester within four hours of a declaration of war. Our attention should be concen-' trated on building up our air force and submarine force, rather than on mixing with Europe’s troubles. Only a while ago the first flight was made, slowly, across the Eng lish channel. Now that flight takes 10 minutes. Within 20 years flyers from Mont St. MicheV may reach- New York comfortably in six hours, bringing a most uncom fortable load of explosives with them. No ‘ world court” would save us from them. Fighting air ships would. Mm. Marshall Field III of Chi cago has her life insured for $2,000,000. That’s worth print ing, because it’s the biggest policy ever taken out by a woman. The entire amount is payable to her husbnnd, who doesn’t exactly need it, being heir to the Marshall Field estate. Very rich people insure their lives to provide cash, that their heir* may pay inheritance tax. So really the insurance is for Uncle Sam. Cuno, most important public of ficial in Germany, is paid $02 a month salary. No Russian official, Including Trotzky and Lenin, gets more than $60 a month. That will puzzle some patriots in other coun tries. (Copyright, 1»2» ) Let Cuticura Be Your Beauty Doctor Dry Ship Ruling Now Effective in All U. S. Ports Vessels at Sea Before 12 Sat urday Night Are Exempted From Provisions; Ex pect Embarrassment. Washington. June 10.—Beverage liquor, which found asylum aboard foreign merchantmen in American waters after it had been shouldered from American soil hy the Volstead act, now is officially driven out Into the open sea. After the stroke of midnight, under regulations drafted hy the treasury to make effective the mandate of the supreme court, there is no substantial legal foothold for alcoholic drinks within the jurisdiction of continental United States, ashore or afloat. A reminder of the zero hour, as fixed in the regulations, was given by the treasury today. It was pointed out that the regulations. In the face of representations hy most of the maritime powers of the world, are to be applied rs rigidly as a literal read ing of the highest court's opinion will warrant. Emergency Only Loophole. The only ameliorating provisions are strictly of an emergency and tem porary character. Incoming vessels at sea. when the effective hour ar rives, may bring liquor inside the three-mile limit for the last time, but It must remain under seal until the homeward voyage has started. Ships in distress may seek refuge in American ports under the same con dition. and there is the usual ex emption for medicinal, "diplomatic" and sacramental shipments. But in all other cases ships which cross the deadline must cast into Davy Jones’ locker whatever intoxicants they have aboard. . Under the'regulations customs of ficers are authorized along with/pro hibition agents to seize and confis cate outlawed liquor. A ship's owner and its master are alike amenable to the full penal provisions of the Volstead act on conviction of viola tion. Most officials agree enforcement will continue to prove embarrassing to International commerce for some months to come, but the treasury has only one hope pf Alleviating the condition, and that is hy congressional action. Threats Not Carried Out. There have been some threats that the ships of some foreign nations, whose laws require the serving of wine as a part of the crew ration, would dodge American porta here after. One Spanish company has an nounced such a purpose, but its ships, it is said, make only monthly callings in American waters. Consummation of changes in other shipping company schedules has not been accomplished, and most officials here are inclined to the belief that the small profit lost by ships through operation of the law will he Insufficient to tempt many to avoid entering American waters with remunerative cargoes. Some latitude has been given by the treasury in dealing with medicinal liquor, hut the regulations require -e ports of a character and quantity sufficient to provide this government with a definite check as to the amount of liquor so handled. Medi cinal officers of the public health service become, under the regula tions. the official representatives of the United States in dealing out liquor supplies for medicinal use, but any act of theirs finally must come to Washington for final review by the prohibition commissioner.

Delaware Highways Lined . in Tribute to the President Greetings So Hearty That Nation’s Chief Relents From Declaration and Makes Six Speeches—De clares He Would Rather Have Three Jobs for Each Man Than Three Men for Each Job. Br Associated Prm. Milford, Del., June 10.—The heart of Delaware was opened Saturday to President and Mrs. Harding, as they tuaversed the state from Wilmington in the north to Lewes in the south. It was a great day for Delaware. To members of the president's par ty, it seemed as though a state holi day had been declared and the entire population of the commonwealth had crowded to the cities, the towns and the villages and along the roadsides to wave a greeting to the chief execu tive and the first lady. It was a great day also for the president. He reached Wilmington by train from Washington shortly after noon, firm In the declaration made yesterday that he positively would make no addresses during the tr,p. An hour after he had reached Wilmington, moved by the reception tendered him at a luncheon given by the Young Men’s Republican club, he was making a speech explaining that no' man could remain dumb In the face of such a welcome. Forced to Speak. five other speeches followed be fore he boarded the presidential yacht Mayflower tonight at Lewes to cruise hack to Washington, all briefly thank ing those who gathered to welcome the party, but all concluding with some emphatic asertion as to the duties of American citizens and the responsibilities of the American re public. The longest of the half dozen speeches was made at Wilmington, and in it, the president, responding to a welcome extended by Former Senator H. A. Dupont and Mayor Harvey, declared it was good to get out of Washington and breathe the pure air of America. "I don't mean." he hastily added, "that the nation's capital has an un wholesome air. but it does one good to get out ffnd meet the representa tive citizens of this great republic, to see them at their tasks, to get their views, untouched by political bias and to realize that in them rests safe ly and securely, the destiny of Amer ica.’’ Thrilled by < hildren. The president said it was good to see the children. 12,000 of whom ! gathered in Wilmington to greet him and who made up a good propor tion of the crowds that lined his course down the state. "It gives one a thrill to see so many and such goodly children,” he asserted, and then solemnly added, "God helping me, I want to hand on to them the republic in all the strength it was given to us.” Mr. Harding refered to informs tlon given him by Senator Dupont and his host for the day. Senator Ball, that Wilmington waa fared by a scarcity of labor. "While I am always sorry there are not ample workers," said the presi dent, "I would rather have a situs tlon in America in which there ara three jobs for each workman rather than three workmen for the job.” The present situation In industry, the president asserted, was due to a realization by the American people that to cure postwar ills they all must get down to work and build anew. That same thing is what the world must do, he added, and then continuing his discussion of world problems, said: Wants reace Restored. “We would not be happy in the United States if the civilized world were continually in distress. We can’t live for oyrselves anymore. I want America to make sure of its present and its future and then give as it can to restore peace and pro* perity throughout the world.” The president also spoke at Newark, the first stop on the 76 mile motor ride from Wilmington to this City, addressing his remarks to the graduating class and students of women's college of the University of Delaware, who gathered in front hf their main building and greeted him with song and cheers. In this address, Mr. Harding made the statement reiterated later at sev eral towns, that he appreciated the cordial welcome, but realized that it was not extended to Warren Harding, but to the president of the United States and the government ho rep resents. Continuing southward, tne presidential party paused at Cooche Bridge, while Senator Ball pointed out that it was there that the Amer ican flag first was unfurled in bat tle. Salutes War Veteran. A little later, out In the open roun try, the presidential ear came to a atop to allow the chief executive and Mrs. Harding to salute a veteran of the civil war standing at the roadside with his old musket at present arms beside a faded steel engraving of Lin coln. Traversing the route over which Caesar Rodney, pne of Delaware's signers of the Declaration of Inde pendence, made hts famous ride from Lewes to >Philadelphia to aid in the adoption of the document, the presi dent continued to Smyrna, where the mayor, in addressing him from the steps of the pnstoffice, proudly pro claimed that this was the greatest day in the history of Smyrna, for never before had it entertained a president. The president responded briefly and introduced Mrs. Harding as the boss of the White House. Luncheon at Capital. Reaching Dover, the old and quaint capital of Delaware, late in the after noon, Mr. and Mrs. Harding were received at the statehouse by Gover nor Denney and entertained at a second luncheon in the library of the capital, where the president again made a brief address It was early in the evening before the party arrived here, the principal objective of the trip, to find the little town filled to overflowing with mem bers of the Tall Cedars of Lebanon, a branch of Masonry, Into which the president and Secretary Christian were Initiated. After the Initiation ceremonies, at which the president made another In formal speech, the party motored to Lewes and hoarded the May-flower.

Hr International News Service. Chicago, June 10 —Whether the un derworld is breeding a new race of women—fearless, aggressive, brainy and cold blooded—who henceforth are to be reckoned with as serious factors in major crimes, was a question that tonight whipped the sharpest biains of Chicago's police department. The Sabine women, kidnaped by the thieves, rogues and murderers, who founded the Roman empire, gave the earth a race whose strength, civiliza tion and granduer com pars to its own advantage with the present. The thing this city* best detec tives huve been unable to solve ia: Who was the girl, daring, unafraid, cynical and calm, who last Tuesday night laughed sardonically as she fired a mortal bullet into the body of Richard C. Te-mer, rich insurance dealer, who had done nothing what ever but submit helplessly to being, robbed by the girl and her male com panion? The puzzled police for months have had to contend with a class of under-j world girl Chicago calls the "ShelM bandit." They have helped their "sheik" associate* In holdups and bur glaries. But, in the unfiian who a* sasssnated Tesmer is an entirely dif ferent sort of criminal. She killed Tesmer, while her vic tim's wife stood transfixed, just to be hard-boiled, different from the other female parasites of the underworld and out of the small fry cla.-s. M"»t anyone will gnnct-de it takes no great gift to do a criminal thing But it does rtike a skillful mind to escape the penalty of a crime. Tesmer s murderess has done that She left behind not, a clue to her iden tity, other than the impression made upon the widow by her cynical smile! and laugh when she shot. That vapory thing—a coldblooded! laugh that takes murder as humor— | ia »y detectives have with which to trace the newest product of crime— the gunwoman as dangerous as the! gunman. > Society Reports Interest Growing in Scriptures Distribution in U.

The distribution in the United States shows an increase of nearly 100,000 volumes over the preceding year. The total distribution through out the world amounted to 4,674,340 volumes. In Mexico there has been an un precedented enthusiasm for the Bibie, os a result of a united "knowthe Bible" campaign. It has not been per.“ibis to fully meet the demand In this country.
