NATION'S CRIME RECORD IS SCORED BY OSWALD RYAN WINCHESTER. Ind., June 8 Oswald Ryan, lawyer and writer, of Anderson, in a commencement address at the high school here Monday night declared that "as a result of our social failure to protect our people against criminal violence, human life has become cheaper in this than in any other civilized country," and that the guarantee to life, set forth in the Declaration of Independence, was not being wholly made good in the United States. Mr. Ryan was formerly prosecuting attorney of Madison county.

flow that defied a thunder shower, as "pioneer" of the senate battle against the covenant. Senator Borah said he

did not propose to compromise the treaty issue. Republican and Democratic leaders, he said, were leaning toward such action and Senator Johneon alone of the presidential candidates was not willing to compromise "American independence and sovereignty." The California senator, presenting his case to an audience largely composed of delegates, declared that the "doctrine of humanity and Americanism" he preached was one that he would always preach "without limit or compromise." Lodge May Be Permanent. There was more talk during the right of the possibility of short-cutting convention preliminaries by making the temporary organization with Senator Lodge as chairman the permanent convention structure. This would save many hours of organization work, it was argued, but no definite step was taken. One effect of such a short cut would be to assist in getting the tentative platform ready for early approval by iiie convention. Progress already made, particularly with the treaty plank, was said to be highly satisfactory. Senator Watson, who has the preliminary work in charge, aided by volunteer platform builders, and with

PERSHING ASKS TO RESIGN.

WASHINGTON. June 8. General Pershing wrote Secretary Baker asking permission to retire from active service "within the next few months. The former commander of the American expeditionary forces declared that after the completion of work incident to the recently enacted army reorganization bill his normal duties would require only a part of his time, and therefore he wished to be "free to engage in something more active."

Do You Throw Away Money? EVERY TIME YOU SPEND MONEY THAT YOU SHOULDN'T SPEND, you throw it away. Whenever a quarter or a dollar, instead of being saved, is foolishly wasted on some triviality, your future well-being is made less certain.

Adversity may come and find you unprepared to meet its blighting realities. Want, Age, Disease, Misery, can be less poignant, if you have laid aside a sufficient amount with which to fortify yourself against these trials.
