*f?w PEACE FINALLY MADE AFTER MANY MONTHS Representatives of Russia, Ukraine and Poland Successfully End Negotiations at Riga Riga, March 18.?After months of negotiations peace was finally signed tonight by the representative? of Rus sis', Ukraine and Poland. After the signatures had been affixed to the treaty, M. Dombsky, head of the Polish mission, declared it was the desire of Poland to be the bridge between Europe and Russia. He added, however, that future relations between Poland and Russia would depend on the execution of the peace treaty. The conviction that good relations would be established between Russia and her neighbors because Rus sia was first to recognize the right to self-determination of small nationalities, was expressed by Adolph Joffe, chief of the Russian delegation. "Soviet Russia's enemies," he said, 'fhave endeavored to represent her as an aggressive state, but the signing of this treaty shows her peacefulness." 31. Meirmitch, the Lettish foreign minister, said he hoped, on behalf of his country, for the economic col-J laboration of Russia and her neigh-j bors. Twenty-six paragraphs and five ap-! ?

The i nnt. nnlv has hepn won over JfA?<MV?W4? ?*V? completely to the plan of establish-: ing a special woman's department of; the government, with a woman cabinet member at its head, but plans to out-djp all other administrations in appointing women to important positions. | This was revealed by Harriett Tay lor Upton, a member of the Republican national committee, in the course of an interview here today. Incidentally, despite the fact that she has charge of all women's activities under the national committee and r" has been generally conceded as "first in line" for the choicest plum to be handed out by President Harding to her sex, Mrs. Upton does not want to hold office. . "I would rather be in the thick of political doings," she explained. "Therefore I prefer my present job." She continued: "President Harding was at first doubtful about the wisdom of establishing a woman's department, just as President Wilson was at first suspicious and hostile toward women vot ing. iJUt in a recent, tuiivcuauun, I found that he had been quite won over to the idea, as have the majority of its former opponents. Women Opportunity "I am confident, and indeed am in a position to I.^tw, that this administration will outdo every previous ad- j ministration in the appointment of j A - *-1 Prooi_ j 'women to omciai jjusmwiu, * dent Harding will go slow about such i appointment which is right. There is no excuse for appointing women to any position because they are women and without regard to their special qualifications. Referring to the need of a special woman's department, Mrs. Upton said: "When women worked exclusively) | in the home there was no great need j j for a special branch of the govern-1 {merit ro care for women's interest.?.! But now when millions are earning! their living under conditions That call for special remedial action, the need has become more and more pressing, until it has become evident that the interests of both women and children in industrial life cannot be properly safeguarded through general legislator! ar?H administration. Need of Women's Branch "The need of a branch of the government devoted to the interests of women is obvious. At present such work is scattered among many departments. The nearest approach to centralization is in the children's bureau of the labor department, presided over by Miss Julia Lathrop. j But work of a humanitarian sort that should be gathered under one department, such as I have outlined, is * 11 J I scattered an over me <iuinjxiiai.xai.jvv machinery and ought to be concentrated. "It took over sixty years of agita-: tion to get a labor department, but | things move faster now, and I am sure we will soon have a woman's department, whether that is the name i selected or not. The fact that wo- J men have the vote will hasten this | process immeasurably. "My friends have been kind enough ' to suggest me for such a position, j 1 and say, 'wouldn't it be fine to be the I ! woman cabinet member.' But ij j dread being both the first and the j, 'worst. I am sure that many women j can be found in political life who are j admirably suited for this kind of adj ministrative work."
