SATURDAY, OCT. 11, 1919. FLAYS ARGUMENT ON PACT

Senator McCumber Criticises the Johnson Amendment.

Washington, D. C., Oct. 6.— Denying that Great Britain and her colonies would have six votes in the league of nations to one for the United States, Senator McCumber (Rep., N. D.) declared in the senate today that senators advocating the amendment by Senator Johnson, (Rep., Oalif.) proposing to limit the vdting power of the British colonies were fanning popular prejudice with an unfounded appeal. “Senators who in pi'fvate conversation would never dream of attempting to deceive one another,” said Senator McCumber, “seem unable to resist the temptation to take advantage of a prejudice created by this deception, and with studied avoidance of the real and

full truth, give this prejudice an-' other boost." As a substitute for the Johnson amendment, Senator McCumber urged his proposed reservation to exclude British colonies from participating to the league in disputes involving the mother country or each other. “Almost every argument made on the floor of the senate,” sajd Sen-| ator McOumber, “and every one without exception made to the public by senators opposed to any league of nations, has given the impression to the people of the world that the council or the assembly, as the case might be, is a sort otf court or tribunal that decides the disputes between nations, and it is because of these misstatements of the facts that the misapprehension of many of our people arising therefrom, that the ground is made fertile for the development of about all the animosities towards this league and especially toward the claimed voting power of Great Britain. “I wish the public could just once fully understand, flr|t, that not one case of dispute out of a hundred would ever go to the council or assembly; second, that even if all other efforts provided for the settlement of disputes should fail, the only thing submitted to the council or assembly is the right to investigate and report the facts to the public.’’ “Senator McOumber said that the argument of Senator Johnson and other supporters of the Johnson amendment as to Britain’s voting power was “too absurd to be true,” and asked why France, Italy and other nations did not raise objections to> “putting their heads in the lion’s mouth.” The North Dakota senator said that the “real facts” regarding the league were: “That neither the council nor assembly is a board of arbitration. “That neither of them decides international disputes at all. “That the only jurisdiction, which the council or assembly have

over a dispute between nations, is the right to investigate and report what the true facts are, and make recommendations. “That a dispute with a part of a nation or empire is a dispute .with the whole. “Great Britain can not and will not control the vote of Canada,” Senator McCumber said. “I would like to put this question straight to the American people: Has not Canada, a fully-governing, independent dominion, earned by her sacrifices in blood and treasure through four years of this bloody war, a right to a seat in the assembly, that would give her voice an effect equal to Haiti, Hedjaz, Honduras, Liberia, Nicaragua, Pamama, Perm, Salvador or Venezuela?’’ i

CONCERN IS FELT IN LONDON

Newspapers Express Sympathy and Pay Tribute to Pres. Wilson. London, Oct. 7.—Concern over the illness of President Wilson is expressed by many London newsipapers today. The Chronicle says: “No sick bed of our time, or perhaps any other time, has commanded such universal concern and sympathy. Not only America but mankind has a lot apd part in the president’s welfare; “Political and diplomatic circles are seriously preoccupied over the president’s illness,” says the Mail. "Really no man in the world concerns the world more than Mr. Wilson. In Great Britain we await news from him not less anxiously than do the American people themselves.’’ , King George, who is' greatly concerned over the illness of President Wilson, today sent his private secretary, Colonel Clive Wigram s to the American embassy to seek the latest news regarding the president’s condition. Colonel Wigram also was instructed to express his majesty’s sincere sympathy for President Wilson and Mrs. Wilson.

SEN. NEW TO SUPPLY FUNDS

In Murder. Trial of His Alleged. San in California. Los Angeles, Calif., Oct. B. United States Senator Harry S. New of Indiana, whom Harry S. New, Jr., charged with the murder of his sweetheart, Freda Lesser, claims as his father, will furnish ample funds for the defense in the impending trial, Attorney LeCompte Davis of the defense admitted today. It was also stated that no fact essential to a complete defense would be omitted, which is another way of saying that the romamce of Senator New amiL_ Mrs. Lily Burger, the accused man’s mother, may be recited from the witness stand either in whole or in part.. Prosecution and defense have begun final plans for their legal strategy. These plans will take intensi-

fled form as New goes to trial before Judge Craig of the superior court, Oct. 27, jwith Asa Keyes of the district attorney’s office prosecuting and Mr. Davts and John L. Richardson defending. Indianapolis has passed an antipicketing <#dinance, making it uoalawful to station pickets in labor strikes. This Is a very wise measure and oAe that should be adopted in every city in the land. Stationing pickets, and parading “sandwich men’’ in front of a man's business, declaring him to be “unfair” to union labor, has been the cause of more rioting than all else counbineft, and many a business man has been ruined by the sandwich metbod because he would not stand fcr a hold-'U.p by some walking delegate. Both practices should be stopped, and the quicker the better. The Grant County Women’s Christian Temperance Union, in resolutions adopted at the closing session of the annual county convention, held at Marion a few days ago, calls upon influential men of the county to use their efforts to induce Senators James E. Watson and Harry S. New to support the league of nations. “Believing in universal peace,” says the resolutions, “and that all disagreements should be settled by arbitration, we therefore indorse the league of nations.” Chinamen, have five buttons on their coats to remind them of the principal moral virtues recommended by Confucious —humanity, justice, order, produence and rectitude.

BRACE UP Do you feel old before your time? Is your back bent and stiff? , Do you suffer urinary disorders? Don’t despair—profit by Rensselaer experiences. Rensselaer people recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Ask your neighbor! Here’s a Rensselaer resident’s statement. Mrs. Wm. Moore, Elm St., says: “I suffered from kiddey trouble. I had backaches and headaches for a long time, I had no strength or ambition and |K>uldn't sleep well. I could hardly turn in bed on account of the lameness in my back. I couldn’t do my housework and I knew that my kidneys were weak. Finally I got Doan’s Kidney Pills and they cured me of all those ailments. I have never had an attack nince.” (Statement given May 31, 1907.) Price 60<* at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills —the same that Mrs. Moore had.
