were given in congress under an
agreement between President Harding
wad republican leaders for a thirty-
day adjournment of both house and
-senate about August 20, providing that
id the meantime the agricultural cred-
its measure is enacted and the house
passes the tax revision bill.
Under the tentative plan, the rail-
road debt funding, the allied debt re-
lundlng and other bills will go over
until September. Enactment of sev-
eral other important measures before
the recess date, however, is contsb-
plated
The recess and legislative program
•was arranged more definitely by the
president at a luncheon with Senator
Lodge, of Massachusetts, republican
leader, and Senator Curtis, Kansas,
assistant leader, after the president’s
discussion with house leaders.
Representations by Senator Lodge
and Curtis that tariff tux and rail-
road funding legislation would actual-
ly be expedited by the proposed recess
were said to have figured largely in
ithe president’s assent to the thirty-
day vacation.
The speeding-up process. It was
pointed out, rests with the public

CUMPULSORY DISARMING

Washington, D. C.—"Compulsory
disarmament of women” was suggest-
ed by Alice Robertson, Oklahoma.
With murders by women on the in
crease, she declared it as necessary
as disarmament of nations.
"The women talk so much about
disarmament- well, why don’t they
disarm?" she demanded. ‘‘Why don't
they begin it by disarming women?’’
When informed of a movement that
Is under way to have her named as
a woman member of the American
delegation to the president’s disarma-
ment conference, she replied: "Why
should I be there, that's no place lor
a woman.’ Speaking her mind on wo-
men murderers, suffragettes and oth-
er females of the species, she said:
"Women who commit murder and get
off too easy. They’re not judged ac-
cording to the same standard as men
who murder, but you don't hear the
suffragettes demanding equal right
for the men, do you?
"No, the suffragists want equal
rights for women with special privi-
leges,” she declared. ‘'Men are not
so bad. Women declare them cruel
and unjust, but they are not. It
should be remembered that men who
are bad had women for their moth-
