DELAY NAVAL SESSION

around and bring him back to Amer-; ica that he may save the country once more. I Know Harding Stand Those of us who attribute to ourselves the superiority of not getting as excited at the partisans on both sides know full well that America's commitment not to enter the "League of Nations," is, on the whole, rather more binding, because it comes from the people, than President Harding's commitment to try to bring about an "association" of nations. In purely good-humored raillery we laugh a little at the irreconcilable leaders in terms of "Johnny get your gun and stand guard at the rat hole"; but in all seriousness we know that they arasraerelyv the spokesmen and guardiansof a mandate from the 'people which cannot be reversed by any means other than a future popular election on the same issue. Conference Is to be Limited There isn't any conflict between the verdict of the election of 1920 and the

thing that Harding is about to do. For

NOVEMBER FLOOD, FIRST IN 20 YEARS SWEEPS DOWN OHIO

(By Associated Press) PITTSBURG. Pa.. Nov. 29 The first November flood in more than 20 years was today sweeping down the Ohio river from the upper reaches of the Monongahela and Allegheny, the result, of an almost continuous rainfall for several days. The flood stage, 22 feet at the point bridge was reached before daybreak, and a few hours later the Ohio was rising three tenths of a foot an hour, with predictions from the weather bureau that the crest would be reached soon after noon. Scores of persons living in the lowlands of the north side were taken from their homes in boats by the police, while rising waters compelled the suspension of opjrations in a number of mills and factories.
