MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRE S PRIG r*.N CT.NTS MAKES REPLY TO CRITICISM FROM EUROPE President Coolidge Outlines Tradition Policy of Isolation DECLARES AMERICA IS WILLING TO AID Two Sides, However, to Question Full Ex planation Is Made W A S H 1 N G TON, Nov. 12.— Turning; from acknowledging; America’s obligation to those who j served in the World War, to a I review of American relations; with Europe since the dost of the conflict, President Coolidge j ,'ast night made a vigorous reply; to those of the old world who criticized the National tradition al policy of isolation. The Chief Executive spoke be fore an audience which gathered under the auspices of the Am erican Legion in Washington Auditorium. He lauded the serv ices of Gen. John J. Persing and; Admiral Sims. Economic Results The President detailed the I economic results of the World War and what he considered its I “spiritual benefits. He ~reit-> crated his ^tand for maintenance J cf adequate naval defense and i entered into a fervent appeal fori a Constitution of World Peace declaring that the question of; America's duty to Europe had re-! ceivprl wtrlp (liunitoclnn All hntl, 1 sides of the Atlantic. Are Two Sides President Coolidge asserted that America acknowledged the existence of such duties and had tried to meet them. He said: “They are not all on one side however. They are mutual. We have sometimes been reproached from lecturing Europe but prob ably ours are not the only people who sometimes engage in grati- j tous criticism and advice. Policy of Isolation “We have also been charged with pursuing a policy of isola-j ticn. We are not the only people I who desire to give their attention to their own affairs. It is quite evident that both of these claims cannot be true. I think no in-/ formed person, at home or abroad, blames us for not intervening in afTairs which peculiarly concern others, to adjust, or when we are asked for help, for stating clearly the terms on which we are willing to respond.’’ U. S. Position Pesrident Coolidge said the American position would “truth fully be characterized as one of patience, consideration, restraint! and assistance.” HALIBUT PRICES PRINCE RUPERT, B.

Many think it will be j non-partisan and an attempt j to heal wounds made in the I campaign. ‘‘Every man, when elected to an office, is entitled to a i chance to make good.

Popularity of Private Divorce Defeats Aim Of British Measure By BATES RANEY (A. P. Staff Writer) LONDON, Nov. 12.—Divorce has proved so popular under the law forbidding newspapers to publish court details that the president of the high court has been compelled to appoint two assistants for the Michaelmas term. This country, which was once one of the hardest nations in the world in which to obtain a dissolu tion of marriage bonds, has ob served a steadily increasing num ber of divorce applicants since the new law shrouded the cases in secrecy. There are 800 divorce actions filed for hearing during the two-month Michaelmas term, an increase of 300 actions over the last term. Church people, who supported the new law on the theory that publication of details of broken up family life could servo no use ful purpose, are coming to believe that they have helped to create a Frankenstein monster which may do more to encourage divorce than to hinder it. The "Church Times,” which rep resents the Anglo-Catholic view point in the Church of England, a widely-read, influential church or gan, portrays the situation edito rially in this manner: "A terrible number of divorce pe (Con tinned on Page Three) ti b U b ft b li tl o a fi ri I ARMISTICE DAY IS OBSERVED IN UNITED STATES President Lays Wreath or Tomb of Unknown Soldier, Washington WASHINGTON.

Popularity of Private Divorce Defeats Aim Of British Measure: (Oontinueo rrom Taste One jl.tions are down Tor trial. We ■'ire afraid that the effect of thi recent legislation has been greatly (.to increase the evil. In forrnei days, when these cases were tried I in public, sensitive persons .shrunk j from the ordeal of a public reveia. tlon of their matrimonial lives Now that this check has been re moved by th^ restriction^ public, ity, the popularity of divorce it greatly increased.

A further complication in thf divorce situation Is seen in the an. nouncement that shortly there wil be launched an agitation for thf right to divorce on such grounds as separation owing to penal servi. tude, chronic alcoholism, and tem. peramental difference. The only grounds upon which divorce car now be obtained In England is adultery. Some strange and unusual mat rimonial tangles will worry thf judges this session.

Mrs. Lewis is chown at right. The novelist (left) is holding the family cat “Moneken.” Their heme is well off the beaten tounst track, 10 or 12 miles from railioade, in a tiny town cf G50 inhabitants. By JOHN B. KNOX (A. P. Feature Editor) BARNARD, Vt„ N..V ~—A ancient Vermont hill farm in Ber naiii has ibeen chosen by Sinclai Lewis, novelist, and his brid. Dorothy Thompson, as their perma netu t pring-summer-and-aUtmni home. Coming liere from their honey moon in England for a brief stay j in tore winter drove them to the. Now Y'ork apartment, they hav been delighted with the comfort able 132-year-old farmhouse an pleased with the lack df flutte shown by the countryside ove their '""ivfll. Some,might th:::!: M e .farm a b, lonely, but it is just what the an thcr wanted. Barnard has onl; G50 residents, and they are scat tered over a town: hip cf 45 squar, miles. The village is eight, an. 10 miles, respectively, from th. railroad lines on the north an. iouth. To reach the Lewis placi one must climb a narrow, wind in; road out of the village, still bight; in the hills, a distance of abou two miles. The house obscured from thi highway, is low and white, wit! a wide verandah across its front Surrounded by a bit of lawn am garden land amid a cluster o trees, it nestles on a slope whirl forms one side of a narrow valley a few hundred feet below a brooi rambles along the valley bottom. The old place has its historic as sociations. The hill road tha swings past his driveway is stil lememberod locally as that u. by Marquis do Lafayette on hi: final triumphal tour tf America it 1825. The novelist called attention the doorstep cf his home. Tha b oblong piece of rock hare this in script ion: "Frrm this stone the doorst'1] of Akins Tavern, Marquis de Lafay ette addressed the people o-f Bar nard, Vermont, June 28, 1825." The tavern, Mr. Lewis said, stil stands a short distance down tin highway and is now used as farmhouse. In this setting, made more color ful by the Indian summer foliage the novelist found seelusion fo work on a novel he is finishing And with his bride, who has reputation of her own as a writor I he has planned the future of thei: farm home. Part of his .'luo acres Mr. Lewis plans to keep wooded. The oro.uk will be dammed to form a natural swimming pool. The vegetable garden already has been moved fauher from the house. Tiro Wife lias installed in its place',' I ltd bo glnning of a Cower garden. Here sli' has found enjoyment working tile liar!: loam with her own hands. Although a repo.: has been Cir culated to the eifedt that people in th vi.intty of Barnard had felt they might be made subject on an i other Lewis novel, no confirmation of this rumor could die found. Mr. 'I Lewis himself, said ho had learned i of no such feeling. "If they have, I haven't encoun tered It. No, they haven't the '.self consciousness of people in 'towns.

Many of us wil view with a great deal of ineasiness the suit which has been filed against Edna Ferber in the amount of $2r),000 by a man who bears Ihe same name as one of the char te ters in "Show float.” He makes no effort to in ve that the character in the book was intend ’d as a portrait of himself, but merely sets forth that he bears the character’s name and that he has been subjected to a great deal of annoyance is a result. And should he recover, obviously we should face a situation similar to that which ihtained in Engltml some years ago, and perhaps itlll does to some extent. Persons who found names the same as their own in words of fiction were allowed to collect in court, and thus auth >ra who ^vere quite innocent of any intention o cast aspersions on particular persons either liad to settle or defend a suit. The result was that English authors had to provide their char acters, in order to be safe, with preposterous and Implausible names, to the great detriment :>f the artistic value of their work. Is the person whose name happens to coin cide with the name cf a character in a book much harmed thereby? One doubts. Certainly there is no more withering portrait in Ameri can fiction than the portrait of George F. Bab bitt by Sinclair Lewis. And It so happens, there was a real George F. Babbit, a distinguished newspaper man, who lived in Boston and only recently died. Yet, so far as one knods, Mr. Babbit never took any action against Mr. Lewis and the coincidence never cost him any part of his reputation. The grievance of a person in these circumstances, one suspects, is largely imaginary. Strong Language Among the Ladies. (New York Times.) Shortly after the arrival In England of Mrs. McPherson and the “Four Square Gospel" another branch of religious labor, also headed by a woman, sped from our shores. The English ami ably listened to (he preachments of the leader of the “Church of the Pillar of Fire.” They were particularly diverted by her statement, as soon as she landed in London, that Mrs. McPherson was a sorceress. As epithets go, that is rather charming. What lady, red-haired, bouncing and filled with good works, could resent it? There is no record that the lady in question did. The intention ob viously was to denounce her, but she appears perversely to have been pleased. In going off the beaten track in search of names to call people, it is dangerous to use any but the simplest terms if ambiguity is to be avoided. Some of the good old-fashioned words have lost their early and unpleasant force This is especially true of the things one woman may call another. A hundred years or more ago sorceress and siren were not softened even by a smile As for witch, the unlucky female who acquired that title was in danger of her life. Now these words are terms of admiration and endearment. The only unmistakably approbrious ep thet which a lady can now use of another is 'that woman.” Poverty Unknown. (Seward Gateway.) One of the striking impressions that impigned upon the consciousness of the new pastor of the Seward Community Church when he arrived two months ago was the lack of evidence of poverty He looked for it but just couldn't find it He was so pleasantly nonplussed by the fact that he told the Seward Chamber or Commerce of it (iomg on the well-prescribed formula that “the poor we have always with us." and. actuated by a smcere desire to give aid on behalf of hls^ church if aid be needed, he looked about All he could see was a well-clothed, well-fed prosperous-looking, happy people. Some were poorer than others, it is true, but none was very poor More than that, everyone carried that priceless asset of well being, a cheerful disposi tion and an abiding faith in the future. v 8a"lueI w Lambert, President of the New ev\wa;ry °'MeTne- ha* more whls demand f! °'her wld,'s»rea‘» current Brook 1 yn*Eagle. )"*°re the $is?00a000 Art^ Whi8key 01 the value o »18.000,000 to the United States last year Look in this coun'trv' ST” b family.

Contentment is what enables a man who has a 1923 model flivvy look at the ads of the new 1929 model straight eights without he sinning to figure up just how much he could get on a trade in.

The next controlling issue on the campaign was Prohibition. The i eal issues of the battle were relief tor the agriculture and the preser vation of the natural resources of the country from the grasp of the Power Trust. “Through the excitement over re-f ligi.on and Prohibition, farm relief was beaten and the Power Trust ;iven the greatest victory it every rchieved.

S U T HErTa ND TO FIGHT TO AMEND SHIPPING LAW Delegate Will Seek to Change Jones Law Which Compels Use U.S. Ships SEATTLE, Nov. 12.—Dan A. Sutherland, re-elected as Alaska's Delegate to Congress, passed through hero t-dav. headed for Washington to take his seat for n fifth term, and open a light in volving Seattle. American products from the Fast, said Mr. Sutherland, bound for Alaska are virtually forced to pass over Seattle docks, do 1 r of a route through Canada over the Canadian Pacific or Canadian National railways. The Joftc= Merchant Marine Act, he said, except a Alaska silone from the privilege of special low freight rates for slow rail and water h. ul westward through Canada Canadian vessels cannot take this freight from Seattle and Amer ican vessels will not take it ftom Vancouver, so the only answer is to have the freight hauled West to Seattle by rail and then reconsign it with the middleman’s charges added to Alaska. To Seek Amendment While Mr. Sutherland will seek to have the Jones law amended, he said he was grateful to Sen ator Jones for help in winning apnroprnations for Alaska roads and rivers and habors. Mr. Sutherland said that he plans to help Manager Ohlson of the Alaska Railroad In his plan for colonization in Alaska. He raid he is seeking Seattle’s co operation In this plan and in other matters. He said he is still fighting for greater powers for the Alaska Territorial Legisla ture. He though that would help Seattle.* Talks on Election "Alaska showed a tremendous sentiment for Gov. Smith,” said Mr. Sutherland, ‘yet I think if we could have voted cn it we would have run up a majority for Mr. Hoover. That was an is sue in my own campaign, for Mr. Grigsby, my opponent, made an aggressive and forceful campaign for Gov. Smith, whom he helped to dominate, and for the repeal of the Territorial Prohibition En forcement Law.” LOWELL CREEK WORK HAS FINE PROGRESS Despite winter weather condi tions that prevail at Seward, work on the Lowell Creek flood protec tion project is progressing satis factorily, it was announced today at the District Engineer’s office here.
