The writer quotes the president on such questions as intervention in the Turco-Itallan war on America's at titude In regard to China, on the sit uation in Mexico and on the general subject of arbitration. , When asked about the possibllty of American mediation in the Turco Italiaa war, the writer stated the president declared the United States was certainly disposed in favor of the reestablishment of peace. Never theless he felt it would be unwise to depart from the path of wisdom. "Our relations with the two bel ligerents are equally friendly. We do not wish to offend the dignity of either. It is evident that if the European: powers are not in accord to ask for our mediation we should be happy to work In favor of peace.'' The president said the United States naturally, would defend its in terests , in China, retaining at the same time faithful to the double principle of the maintenance of the Integrity 6f China and the open door. "United States cannot . conceive on the other side of the Pacific a nation dismembered and a prey to foreign cupidity in which our enterprises are no longer 'in a state of stabilty. We are adopting the patient attitude so as to add foreign troubles to exist ing confusion In the Interior. The point of view of United States hasnot varied since the time of John Hay. We wish to see China restored to youth and modernized to that when industry and public works are active ly pushed forward we shall be able to develop our commerce in accordance with the rules of loyal competitor" When asked whether any disquiet ude existed In regard to Mexico, the president reported that everything would be done to re-establish peace there adding that the United States would not permit agitators to pre pare clvl war on American territory. In regard to the arbitration treaties with France and Great Britain the president said after all he had seen and heard on his western trip he was convinced the senate would rati fy the treaties as submitted. The president declared the ambition of th United States was to find in front of an American harmoniously united, a Europe preserved from war by rules of arbitration becoming each day more powerful.

THE DfflJNW Pcblic Ccssistcry Incident to Irmstitere Held Tcday Rites Doubly Impressive Because o the Fact That It Will Probably Re Decades Before There Is Another Inauguration of So Great a Jf um ber at One Time. ' Rome, Nov. 29 The public con sistory, incident to the investiture of the eighteen new cardinals, was held today in the hall of benediction over the vestibule of St. Peter's Cathdral, In the presence of a throng that filled the great edifice, including the highest dignitaries of the church, members of the court and the varl ous representatives. The ceremony was the most Imposing and largest at tended in the history of the modern church. The solemnity and grandeur of the rites were rendered doubly impres sive by the fact that it will probably be decades, perhaps centuries before Christendom wit have a Similar op portunity of watchfug the inaugura tion of so great a number of Card inals at one time. In anticipation of the event thousands of visitors pro longed their stay in Rome, and the most strenuous efforts were made to obtain tickets of admission .: to the consistory. : The ceremonies began at 10 a. m., the eighteen new cardinals went to the Slatine chapel, where the oath was administered by three cardinals, heads of the three orders of the sacred college. In the meantime the doors leading to the auditorium were thrown open, and the place was quickly filled to Its capacity. After the services In the Sistlne Chapel, the Swiss guard prepared a ; way for the pope, the choir filed Into its place behind the grillwork of the gallery and the pope made his entrance followed by his retinue. His holiness was carried In the crimson and golden "sedlta gesta- toria" by twelve bearers In crim son doublets and hose. Eight of the Swiss guard armed with enormous two handed swords surrounded him, and a long retinue of cardinals, priests, nuns, court servants anil guards followed in his wake, The pope wore his triple tiara, a white mitre studded with gems and bounded by three gold circlets and a great cape of violet cloth of gold. On either side were the flabelli, great fans of whte ostrich feathers. As the pope slowly passed he waved the two uplifted fingers of his right hand, up and down, from left to right, making the sign of the cross, and blessing the audience, which rose It Its seats with cries of "Long live the Pontiff!" and "Long live Plus X!" The pope then took his place on the throne, the crowded audi torium grew still, and the cardinals Lranged themselves on either side In order of their rank, In preparation tor the ceremonial "ubbidenza." Each of the new cardinals ap proached the throne, made three bows, kissed the cross embroidered In gold on the velvet shoe which the pope wore on his right foot, kissed the Pontiff's hand, his cheek, and re tired to the bench at the left. Then each In turn received the embrace of the whole college of cardinals, took his place according to rank and don ned the small cap. .After the entire eighteen had per formed these cermonles each in turn knelt before the pope. The hood cf his great cape was drawn over his head by. two masters of all cere monies, and the pope, wearing only the while skull cap, held the broad brimmed cardinals hat over him, Im pressively reading aloud the liturgy, while two archbishops of the court held the book and candle. ' The pope pronounced the bened' : tlon, the choir sang "Tues Petrus" and the recessional began, the pope again blessing those on either hand as he was bourne along. A curious mingling of the utnioa phere of the middle ages of the twentieth century. marked the cere monies. In the entrance hall and on the landings of the famous Scalla Regla, guests from America) Eng land, France and Germany ; rubbed elbows with those from the Latin countries and were all held In check by gigantic Swiss with glittering hal berds in hand. Occasionally the babel of voices was broken by a grounding of arms in military salute to one of the more distinguished visitors. ... 1 , . "ft,..

A. & M. easily (letoated the sailors by the score of 2J to 0, while the same team were indeed lucky to get off with a game from Wake Forest by the score of 13 to 5. Caro lina defeated the Sailors-by the score of 12 to 0 and against Wake Forest they made the same amount while Wake Forest made the only score made against that team this year when they made a goal from field. With one exception the team is in excellent condition. Captain Bet.ts has not recovered from injuries re ceived in the A. & M. game and it is exteremly doubtful whether he will be able to pilot ins men in tins the last college football game he will have the opportunity to play In. He Is a member of the senior class and though he has played but two years of football It is doubtful whether or not he will return next year. How ever in Joyner, who has alternated with Betts throughout the entire sea son Coach Thompson has a reliable man to hold xlown left end.

From the moment -Senator Lodge began his argument, it was clearly seen by the audience that his address was an answer to Chief Justice Clariv principles. , Senator Lodge was happily pre sented by Judge Winston, who re ferred to the speaker's well-known, attainments, and to the sympathy and friendship obtaining between Massachusetts and North Carolina. Judge Winston was most happy la his manner of presentation. Presi dent Graham presided over the meet ing. . ' .. '' .. : V' '.

None of the ideas advanced by "fantastic agitators" is new; Rome and Athens had pure democracies; socialism Is as old as human nature and Will be popular so long as the people desire something for nothing; Where socialism has been put into practice on a large scale, Senator Lodge said, its principles have resulted in con fusion and the retrogression ot the race. - The constitution has expanded to meet new conditions and though Its framers did not know that steam, electricity, manufacture, and Other, things', would revolutionize American life, yet the constitution has beea found to meet all conditions created? by modern life.
