‘COMMON SENSE PARAMOUNT IN NATION’S CRISIS’ Sen. Beveridge Says Statesmanship, Jsot Politics, Must Meet Great Problems. WORLD TRADE IS APEX Special to Th# Time*. KOKOMO, Ind., May 11.—.N0 legerd®mala of politic! and no sleight-of-hand statesmanship can suspend the economic tawa which are responsible for the present business depreaslon, Albert J. Beveridge declared in a speech in the auditorium here last night. "What then shall we do?” he asked. “First of all, we must reject out of hand and be done with the matter, all unsound schemes for 'bolstering np buinesa,' however attractive thore schemes are made to appear and however much our sore necessities urge us to accept such palliatives—at least wo must examine with care and caution, as becomes prudent people, all propositions for instantaneous betterment. PBOBU.M OF FOREIGN TRADE. “For example, our most serious problem Is that of foreign trade. How shall we get rid of our surplus? Disposition of the surplus Is a first condition of prosperity. If we cannot sell it abroad, factories must reduce production or entirely close, since they cannot continue to produce what they cannot sell. This means nonemployment of labor which. In turn, grinds agriculture. All industry is affected. “So, we are kindly disposed toward any idea of ‘relief. 1 In this state of affairs the plausible—possibly sound —Idea Is advanced of ‘extending credits 1 to Europe. Yet the debt to us thus created must be paid In goods, not cash, since Europe has no cash for purchases. But payment in goods means the further increase of our surplus, to dispose of which abroad Is our prime necessity and our most perplexing problem. “It Is manifest, therefore, that American business men should not blindly plunge Into this arrangement, but should patiently and thoroughly analyze is before embarking upon such an economic adventure. Os course others nations are eager to have us become partners in catastrophe—so are certain great financial interests which are loaded down with foreign ‘securities.' Perhaps they are right as to us—they surely are as to themselves—but perhaps they are wrong ae to us. So let us at least look into the proposed game before we commit ourselves. “For many years we have been woefully short-sighted in advancing American business abroad; and recently we have acted almost Insanely. If only we bad shown a little part of the prevision In foreign affairs of Bristlsh statesmen the ablest body of men who. in the exclusive interests of their own nation, ever watched over world movements —we would now be in better case. But. instead, we have shown no foresight whatever; and now we face the reckoning. “HAS AMERICA ENDURANCE TO PREVAIL.” “Thus comes the ultimate trial of American character. Have we the endurance to prevail? Have we the ability to suffer and perserve? Have we the sense to refuse to ‘dope' ourselves with economic narcotics which may keep ua 'going' for a brief season but which will make our plight more desperate in the outcome? And can American institutions endure the. strain? “On first thought, the prospect* are forbidding. When we consider tne shocking sact —the almost unbelievable and incredible fact—that many good Americana, in spite of impending collapse, actually care more about this or that petty political ‘organization' than th. / care about the well-being of the American people—actually give more thought and energy to partisan wrangles than to statesmanship, we must confess that the outlook is, to say the least, not encouraging. “But lift your eyes above the trivialties of the hour, and, beyond the heavy elouds. the sight of rational faith can behold the sunshine—far off, it is true, yet to be achieved if we are steadfast, and worthy. Within two years the American Congress will have to begin the enactment of the most stupendous economl* legislation in the history of the world. Even if there had been no war we would have been compelled to adopt this program of constructive statesmanahlp in the end —the war has forced it upon ua now. 1 have publicly so often and for so many years specifically described the basic laws necessary to our prosperity that I shall not this evening go over them again. , “That we shall weather the long, soultrying, heart-breaking, storm, I have no doubt whatever. Yet a little longer our lethargy will endure the puerilities of what is called ‘politics;’ yet a little longer we will tolerate that product of a day that is past, the ‘politician' in the scats of the mighty. But at last the avful grind of taxation, the terrible condition of business, the appalling loss which results from our utmost efforts, will have their inevitable effect.” CLARA HAMON TO ACCEPT §IO,OOO

The Senate Committee on Currency and anking, following a hearing at Washington yesterday on three bills, introduced by Senator Smoot of Utah, to eliminate the Joint Stock Land Banks from operating of the Federal Farm Loan Act, voted to recommend to the Senate the indefinite postponement or all three proposed measures. This information was wrought back to Indianapolis today by Evans Woolen, president of the Fletcher Joint Stock Land Bank, of Indianapolis, which is the largest of the joint stocks in Indlnaa, and is owned and operated by the Fletcher Savings and Trust oOmpany, of this city. Mr. Woollen, who has been attending a meeting of various committees of the American Bankers Association at Pinehurst, N. C., went to Washington yesterday and made an argument against the Smoot bills before the Senate committee. At the close of the hearing the committee voted to recommend indefinite postponment. Recently the Supreme oCurt of the ■United States upheld the validity of the bonds issued by banks under the Farm Loan Act and their exemption from taxation. The Fletcher Bank already has loaned more th£ n s6,o"O.iJUt> on farm loans in Indiana, under the provisions of the act, and similar joint stock banks now are operating at Lafayette and Ft. Wayne. The Smoot bills were aimed to eliminate these banks from operating under the Farm Loan Act, to supply farmers with credit.

BOYCE’S ‘WEST BY SOUTHWEST’ TOUR EXTENDED (Continued From Page One.) a station owned by the MeConnel family, Miss MeConnel b6d been an acquaintance of hig in Chicago, where she was studying music, and It was througn her that he had received the invitation. Mr. Boyce added that he had attended the recent Sydney show. He considered the exhibits were very good, and he had been very much surprised at the agricultural products which he had seen. He had had no idea that Australia was capable of doing so much from the agricultural viewpoint. Exhibitions similar to that of Sydney wero held in the United States, but he considered that what he had seen In Sydney as regards cattle, horses and sheep was superior to any he had seen in the States. Mr. Boyce believed that the Australian cities were very up to date, and he could not offer any suggestion for their Improvement. And he believed that the railway systems were equal to what the country could afford. Matters would, however, be much better when a uniform railway gauge was completed throughout the Commonwealth. The standard of comfort provided on Australian railways was equal to that provided in America when that country was younger than It now was. It had to be remembered that Australia only possessed 5 p'r cent of the population of the United States, and he considered that It would be a great hardship for the Australian public to have to pay more In order to obtain railway accommodation equal to that now provided In the United States. Mr. Boyce said he believed In the White Australian policy. American knew what a trouble the 14 per cent of negroes among the population was, and were well aware of how difficult the question was to handle. Australia was lucky to have taken up the color ques tion early, and he had no doubt that the policy thnt had been adopted would never be changed. AUSTRALIA, AMERICA AND JAPAN. Speaking with regard to the relationship of America and Australia in the Pacific, Mr. Boyce stated that he gathered from the fact that America was bringing her Navy to the Pacific Ocean that an understanding had been arrived at between Great Britain and the United States, whereby the British fleet would police the Atlantic and the American fleet the Pacific. That belief, he thought, was generally accept* and. He considered that there was no earthly possibility of war ever taking place between England and America. Ot ■ reason was that the people of both those countries were of the pure white race and came from the same stock. They might have personal differences, but they were going to stick together on all family matters. The average American know very little about Japan. Few of them understood that no Japanese In Japan owned a foot of land. All the lard wa owne” by the crown, and was leased to •> pecs .n, who improved It. But the lease wai, subject to revaluation every year. Tha‘. state of affairs made the Japanese ve'y hungry for land in other countries where they could become freeholders. Australia was In great danger from Japan, because of that land hunger. Mr. Boyce contended that Japan could have no real grievance against the United States for not allowing Japanese to own land in that country when they were not allowed to possess any in their native land. Mr. Boyce did not consider thnt Australia was “population hungry.” He advised the people of this country to go slow and select good immigrants. Australia's cities were too big now, and unless she could bring up her country population to a better proportion she would be unbalanced. Commenting on the claim that Australia had nothing to fear from Japan because the natural expansion of that country was westward into China, Mr.

UN DIANA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MAY 11, 1921.

Some Might Say Dress in Style CHICAGO, May 11.—A little ‘‘bine dress” whihe shrunk to her knees today, helped to win a divorce and $24,000 alimony for Mr*. Margaret Molltor Cory from Marcus M. Cory, wealthy manufacturer of Fond Du Lac, Wla. Mrs. Cory told how her "little blue dress" had shrunk to heT knees when she washed It In an effort to *ave money for her husband. Mrs. Cory also told of alleged ciuelties she suffered at the hands of her husband while they lived In Fond du Lac during the lummer of 1919. Cory, In contesting the suit, charged his wife's uncle had ‘‘ruined his busine.'S.” Judge Lewis granted the decree.

Boyce said he did not take very much stock of that contention. Japan had gained very little from taking over Korea, because It was chockfull of people, and there was no room In which Japanese could be settled. Japan had an enormous birthrate, and she was looking for a land to produce food. China was so full of people now that large numbers of the Inhabitants were very short of food part of the time. Mr. Boyce ridiculed the Idea that war would eventuate between Japan and America. Japan would not gain anything by going to war with the United Stces —except a big Indemnity against nerself. Japan had no Intention of fighting anybody. As for her enormous orders for aeroplanes and continual additions to her navy, he considered the whole procedure bluff. If Japan were really engaged in the construction of a big army and navy, she would keep the matter as secret as possible, and not advertise the facts to the world. Countries did not advertise those things when they meant business. Mr. Boyce considered that the relationship between Japan and America was Just as cordial as that between Australia and other British dominions. The average American did not worry much about world affairs. They had a big country of their own to govern and develop, and until the European war they had not paid much attention to the matters and people of other countries. Mr. Boyce concluded that in his opinion Australia ought to take care of 50,000,000 people within the -next century, but she had better have a slow growth and a sure one, and not endeavor to take in everybody as the United States had done—people who were not adaptable for the needs of the country. Negro Gets $1 and One Day forJßake Assault David Moran, 43, negro, 514 North Blackford street, was fined $1 and costs and sentenced to one day in jail by Judge Walter I’rltchnrd, In city court, today, for breaking a garden rake over a man’s head, an offense more commonly known as assault and battery. A. H. Henderson, a negro, 518 North Blackford street, Moran's next door neighbor, was the victim. He told the prosecutor that the fight was a climax of a quarrel over the property line dividing his property from that of Moran's.

Weak, Thin Folks Need Phosphate Says Dr. Koile Dr. Frederic 8. Koile, the New York author of medical text books, whose opinions are greatly valued, writes: "When the nerve tissue begins to lose its vitality, woman begins to lose ber youth and vivaciousness She becomes Irritable, moody and despondent, it would be a godsend If more weak, thin, nervous men and women were aware of tbe efficacy of Bitro-Pbos-phate.” Thousands of thin, run-down people whose nervous energy Is nearly ex haunted are turning to Bltro-Phoaphate as dispensed by Haags Drug Stores and other leading druggists, because it helps to re vitalize the nerves, increase bodily weight and bring back energy and mental keenness. CAUTION i Although Bitro- Phosphate Is an excellent aid In relieving weak, nervous conditions. Its use Is not advised unless increased weight is desired.—Advertisement.

ANIMALS ’ BONES IN MURDER CASE 4 Remainst ot a Dozen Victims of Bluebeard Not Found in Furnace. PARIS, May IL—The probability that Henri Landru, the “French Bluebeard” would ever be convicted for the murder of a dozen wives and flnancees, who have mysteriously disappeared practically vanished today when an official report was made to the court that charred bones found in a furnace In Landru’s villa at Gambals, were from animals and not human beings. Landru, who was accused of “killing or causing the disappearance” of from ten to thirteen women after securing their property, was in high glee when Informed of the doctor’s reports. “That was what I told them long ago, but they laughed at me,” said the prisoner. “Now It Is my turn to laugh at them.” Laudru's trial Is fixed for this coming summer at Versailles. If he is acquitted of the murder charge he will have to serve a term In prison for fraud in connection with a garage which he operated before his arrest nearly two years ago. Operating on Inmates’ Held Unconstitutional The Indiana law which provides that habitual criminals. Idiots and imbeciles who are confined in penal Institutions may be operated on to prevent reproduction of the kind is unconstitutional, the supreme court ruled today on the grounds that there Is no provision for the prisoner to be given a bearing. The case was appealed from Clark County where Charles F. Williams, physician at the State reformatory, wag enjoined from operating on Wallace Smith, an Inmate.
