WHAT’S IT "**OW many days since you have thought of BECOME | I Coue ?He is almost forgotten. To endure OF COUE? persistently in American memory, one must be a baseball player, a prize-fighter, a stage or movie star, a theatrical scientist or medical man —or the inventor or marketer of a breakfast food, beauty lotion or some mechanical device that can be sold cheaply. A reader, one of the wise few who will get permanent good from Coue’s system of harnessing the imagination, sends a letter announcing his discovery that the original disciple of the Coue method of treating ailments by auto-suggestion was —Socrates! fie died 2,322 years ago. Xenophon, Greek historian and militarist, wrote in his "Memorabilia’’ that Socrates one day said to him: ‘‘l consider that those live best who study best to become as good as possible; and that those live with most pleasure who feel the most assurance that they are DAILY GROWING BETTER AND BETTER." That sounds familiar, strikingly like Coue’s "Day by day. in every way, I grow better and better." Ten thousand years ago. and more, they probably had epidemics of the Coue idea. The orientals, especially. Thousands of years from now, the Coue idea will be resurrected and have flash-in-the-pan epidemics of popularity. What a pity, that these good ideas cannot stay with us permanently instead of visiting occasionally and departing before they become indelible! THEIR f’ | is much that we Americans ean learn LEAGUE I about the League of Nations from Lord RobAND OURS X ert Cecil. British spokesman for the league, 'vho is visiting us now. Not the least in his message to Americans is the clarification of one fine point, which probably can be blamed more than anything else for our undignified fear of the league. Europe’s conception of the league and ours are entirely different pictures. Europe sees the league, as Lord Robert explains, merely as an instrument of peace. It is simply one method of undertaking to end international disputes before they lead to war. The league is. after all, but an international round table. Tn their frenzy over the menace of “entangling alliances," our irreconcilable Senators have conjured up for us a league straw man, with a bogie behind him. They have stood him up and knocked him down so much that some of us forget what tho league really is. These Senators have almost made us believe that the League rtf Nations is a super-government, set up to threaten our sovereignty. It is not that, at all, and Lord Robert does us a distinct service to point out to Americans what the League of Nations actually is. In a word, the league is merely the only existing machine which today undertakes to settle international differences without the resort of war. It may not be perfect, as Lord Robert admits. But it is the best instrument we have today, and it is functioning for fifty-two member nations. And when a better plan for fostering peace is invented, the league is ready to give way to it. if we understand Lord Robert's message.

Women Serving Life Terms in San Quentin Prison Cling to Petty Vanities Dear to Them

Convict women, forty-six of them, mostly young, many handsome, spending their lives behind stone walls, are in San Quentin, Cal., penitentiary today clinging to the petty vanities dear to them in freedom and, here and there over their checkered lives, the cause of their fall. They primp before their mirrors. They curl their hair. They pat the folds of their plain blue gowns this way and that.* The stockings they wear, where they can afford them, are silk. And the shoes? Dainty toes, neat insteps, tidy ankles. All of these to the women upon whom no men can look. ' The hands of seven of them are stained with the blood of as many men.

WATSON HAS ‘NOTHING AT ALL TO SAY’ Riley's Poem Paraphrased in Connection With World Court Squabble, By JOHN CARSON Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. April 23.—'The day after President Harding made his speech in New Vork, defending his proposal for partlcipa tion in the international court, the doors to Senator “Jim" Watson’s office were closed and looked. The i Senator had nothing to say. Immediately Riley’s bit of verse was paraphrased: • “Nothing at all to say, boys, Nothing at all to say Presidents that are in love, boys. Usually have their way. Billy Taft did before you. When Teddy objected so strong. Nothing at all to say, boys, Nothing the whole day long.” It was hinted and rumored and lert to he understood, however, that Senator “Jim" was going to he a pencemaker in the party. He was going to try to find a way out. Having Jed up the hill In the charge on Harding's court, the next policy was to lead down the hill. But if ihe rumblings from the White House are to be properly appraised, all this will accomplish nothing. There, is more than one report of pique from the White House be cause of Senator “Jim’s” leadership, •assumed and not conferred. At the same time, it was to be noted that Postmaster General New was with President Harding when he made his Now York speech. New was on the Harding train, perhaps as j as rotor. He was with th<* President, i physically, mentally and politically. And in this connection. If Jim Wat- j son is right that Harding is knock ; ing at the doors of the League or Nations, it might he recalled that New, as the Senator from Indiana, was named a member of the Foreign Relations Committee a few years ago when Senator Lodge recruited his battalion of death. But President Wilson was offering the league and a policy of International intercourse then and Wilson was a Democrat. Cereals From I'. S.

Land Gunmen Rival Water Bandits in Illicit Booze Trad© —33 Government Dry Agents Have Been Killed in Enforcing Law, By EDWARD THIERRY NEW YORK, April 28.—Piracy and murder are writing pages picturesque and violent in the booze history pff America. No complete statistics are available of this growing crime phase, yet thrills surpassing fiction are found even in a brief and causal survey. Smugglers, pirates. * * hi- j ackers," gunmen, bootleggers and bandits today furnish battle, blood and color not to be found between the covers of yesterday’s dime novels.
Thirty-three Federal dry agents have been killed since enforcement began, not counting police and other city county and State officers. Booze directly or indirectly killed seventy-two persons In New York In the first four months of 1923, according to records of the medical examiner’s office; that’s more than four deaths a week. Fights with the law and internal feuds have cost the lives of many bootleggers and rum runners. Unlisted numbers have died of piusonous liquor. Here’s a fortnight's characteristic booze record; BTve men murdered, five drowned, one burned to death, one driven insane, two wounded, nine mysteriously misslr ,y. Those two April weeks began with a story of piracy from Vineyard Haven, Mass. Eight bodies were washed ashore after a battle at sea, noisy enough to be hoard at the distant Gay Head Ufo saving station. The pirates’ vessel got away in the fog. hut the steamer John Dwight, loaded with bottled ole, sank after her boilers hail blown up. Pirates wero I,lamed also for the mystery shrouding the fate of nine members of the crow of the schoo er Patricia M. Beman, found with sails set and anchor dragging in Groat South Bay, Long Island. Decks had boon splintered by bullets and were littered with cartridges. Cabins were in disorder, as if captain and crew had loft hurriedly. Were they carried away or driven into the sea? Empty whisky cases and burlap sacks were found in tho looted hold, and a notebook showed notations of sales of 3,918 packages of liquor. There was a case to a package, it seeme 1, at $-58 or SSO a case, or some $190,000 worth of booze. During the same two weeks a Long Island man was found insane from 6,000 MALE CONVICTS IN THREE PENS Women Prisoners, 400 in Number Scattered Over Nation, By T'nitrit Press . WASHINGTON. Ajul 27.—There are (1,000 male prisoners confined ir, the three big Federal penitentiaries of the country—McNeill Island, in Puget Seurat; Leavenworth, Kan., and Atlanta, Ga. But the 400 women Federal prisoners are scattered all over tho country In State prisons and so badiy crowded are most of those Institutions that the women cannot bo properly housed or cared for and their moral and physical condition suffers greatly in consequence, according to Herbert IL Votaw, superintendent of Federal prisons and chairman of the Fodera! parole board. At the next session of Congress, Votaw, who, by the way, is a brother-in-law of President Harding, wtjl, with the consent of his chief. Attorney General Dauhorty. press this need and ask for a suitable appropriation to cover the cost of a.u adequate Federal prison for women. GERMANS INVENTED TANK Patent Records Show Idea Originated First in 1913. WASHINGTON, Aiy-il 28.—Germany, while Introducing poison gas in the World War, overlooked one of the most effective weapons of modern warfare, patented in Germany two years before the conflict began. A search of the records of the American ( patent offices has disclosed that the J armored tank, first used in the war by the BriiL-h was patented in Germany by Gunter Burstyn, an Austrian, in February, 1912. Tho Invention was practically a duplicate of the type used later by the British. American offirials are puzzled by the failure of tho German government to use the tank.
crazed glare or sullen hate. The walls of their coll-like rooms, painted sky blue, were covered with clippings from fashion magazines and here and there the picture of a movie star. Now and then a tiny shrine to some patron saint was in a little room that harbored two women convicts. On the walls of one of these rooms, where hung the pictures of the Sacred Heart or the Virgin Mary, I found one woman upon her knees and in her hands a rosary. I learned she killed the man who she claimed betrayed her daughter. In the two hours I spent in their midst these women, one by one, hungrily snatched at the opportunity to talk to and be seen by a man. I came upon them suddenly, yet I found them primping before their mirrors, arranging their hair, giving a tuck hero and there to their plalT^fl^Mzvns.
How to Become Hero in Eyes of War Officials
By Times Special 11 7ABIIINGTON, April 28. YY What does one have to do to be a hero in the eyes of the War Department? Merely this and nothing more, the War Department says, in crowning Private Daniel R. Edwards. of Bruceville, Texas, a machine gunner, as that State’s outstanding hero lri the recent conflict: No. I—Charge with a machine gun on your shoulder, got bayonetted In the wrist, but. keep going. Hold an advance position to protect your infantry, see your three machine gun pals killed, get wounded, dress your own wounds and keep at It alone all day until relieved, despite repeated attacks with liquid tire. No. 2—Return to duty, vithr a shattered arm, crawl’into an enemy trench, kill four opponents in fighting at close quarters, capture four more and get your leg blown off by a shell. For the first feat. Private Edwards was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and for tho second he was given the Congressional Medal of H.>nor.
exposure after drifting at sea with two others In a launch loaded with eightythree cases of whisky; two men were wounded, one shot four times, during a quarrel among bootleggers in Brooklyn, and Bridgeport police reported 310 stolen automobiles still unclaimed of some 400 picked up by Connecticut State police since January and mostly said to have been used by rum runners. River pirates, afloat in motor boats scooting In and out among the plots in every port along tho Atlantic Ba---board, have been responsible for even more killings and battles than rum pirates who pull tho twelve-mile limit. Ocean liners tied at piers and oargo ships anchored in harbors are the pirates’ prey. A fatal duel In the Hudson River was the latest of many scrimmages; previously there was a murder In a New York harbor smugging plot, another when detectives descended upon pirates looting a ship at Hoboken, a battle in a Florida port when one gang betrayed another to Government agents, a pistol fight in which twenty men wero seized os they boarded a, schooner In New York Bay, and a gun fight when pirates attacked a rum runner In a New Jersey port.

Ford's plan lias just become generally known through a bill introduced into the Michigan State Senate which would make water power available for the Ford project. But Ford himself told me the germs of las plan in an exclusive interview here in January, 1922, which I passed on to The Indianapolis Times readers through XEA Service. "The groat cities are doomed,” Ford told me at that time. “I don’t mean they’ll fall to ruins immediately. A few will stay.
