THE WHOLE TREATY OR NOTHING. There seems to be a current impression that tne United States senate has power to modify the peace treaty. There is no warrant in law or history for any such view.

The constitution places the treaty-making power in ' the hands of the president and the senate wgether, but j

fives to eacn a separate function. It rests with the president to initiate treaties, and with the senate to accept or feject them when submitted. Strictly speaking, there is rro alternative. The principle was stated clearly in a decision of the supreme court rendered unanimously on the occasion of the Spanish war settlement. The court declared: "Obviously the treaty must contain the whole contract between the parties, and the power of the senate is limited to a ratification of such terms as have already been agreed upon between the president, acting for the United States, and the commissioners of the other contracting powers." Thus it is seen that the senate must either ratify or refu;e to ratify the treaty as & whole. The senate "may make its ratification conditional upon the adoption of amendments to the treaty," added the court, "and the senate may seek to do that very thing in the present case. But such action would have no binding force unless the other parties concerned agreed to the amendments, and would probably be equivalent to killing the treaty allogether, because it is very unlikely that the peace conference could be re-assembled and persuaded to do its work over again. It looks, then, as if the country must either take th? present treaty as it stands, or else throw the whole thing overboard and make a separate treaty with Germanv.

PRAISE FOR LAKE COUNTY. The treasury department's bureau of publicity for the Victory loan organization of the state offers the fol towint; commentary, which Is of enlivening interest: With Vigo cjunty alone, fulling to absorb It j allot nient of Victory loan bonds. Indiana, in the eleventh hour, subscribed for enough of the fiith issue of federal securities to make the state eligible to recognition a all white" on th map. Every effort as put forth by the state sale committee to influence VIko county financiers to underwrite their share of the state's $S1,ri". 2,500 In bonds but they were adamant, and It remain td for such patriotic commiinltien as Lake. Dearborn and Brown counties to make up the deficit that tuiphl oilier wise have prevented the state from making a 10" pr cent, record in the war finance campaign . It was apparent on the closing day of the campaign that Vigo county was the weight against a perft-ct re ord. When Lake county under Chairman Richard Scbaaf added a million dollars to the Jt,..000,ouo already reported, against an allotment of $5,300,000. and wlun Chairman William II. O'Brien, of Dearborn county, reported a total of $825,000 as compared with a quota of JG'K'.OOO; when Tippecanoe and Allen counties reported that they had each distributed nearly a million dollar. additional and had "finished the job." it was a historic moment of inten;e satisfaction at state headquarters, where the executive staff bad been striving to prevent Indiana's failure, for a long weary week, of unprecedented effort. UNANSWERABLE. Not miny years ago a government wouthfr forecaster made the announcement that he could give the daily conditions and temperature for a year in advance just

as well as he could every aay. And we believe him. Just about as well, probably. But that's nothing. Here's one of the tribe foleinnly forecasting 256 years hence. Testifying for the city in the suit of the city of Lou isville against the Louisville Gas and Electro Company for failure to supply sufficient gas a year ago, F. J. Walz, of the Louisville staton of the Weather Bureau, said that if statistics are to be trusted it will be 2174 A. D., 2-jO years hence, before Louisville will 6ee .another winter like that of 1917-1918, when the gas failed. This is marvellous. Come to think of it, we don't care if we never see another winter like this last one. The last five months have been unbearable. Better have something incorporated in the League of Nations, or the covenant, or somewhere rendering it impossible ever to grant another armistice on November U or an y other date until a war is ended.

GIVE TO IT EAGERLY.

There is one drive that this newspaper again enters J

mu ucjii iua eoui ana ioai is tne salvation Army drive. Lake county is asked for $23,000. We hope it will be subscribed in one day for if any organization ever did Its task well during the war it was the Salvation Army. No criticism ha? been voiced agajnst it. That is remarkable. The money th people of the United States is asked to contribute is only for the purpose of meeting the expenses of the fiscal year until the organization gets its business adjusted. We hope our generous people will give freely for they give t0 a noble cause when they give to the Salvation Army the succorer of the poor and needy everywhere. If there was an institution to which it is blessed to give, it is this noble band of self-sacrificing men and women.

NO USE TO DALLY LONGER.

BOY SCOUT WEEK. Interest in the Boy Scout -movement in America will be quickened by President Wilon's proclamation, setting the week of June S to 14 as a time an effort shall be made to strengthen the organization. The final day is Flay day, which will give the Scouts an opportunity to combine the conclusion of their efforts with patriotic celebrations in honor of the flag. The president recounts the valuable services of the Boy Scouts during the war and urges that recognition be given them for the work they have done so well. A.i the president says:' The Boy Scouts movement should not only be preserved, but strengthened. It deserves the support of all public-spirited citizens. The available mean3 for the Boy Scout movement have thus far t-ufficed for the organization and training of only a small proportion of the boys of the country. There are approximately 10,000 boys in the United States, between the ages of twelve and twentyone. Of these, only 375,000 are enrolled as members of the Boy Scouts of America. There Is no system of universal military training in America, and no official connection between the Boy Scouts and the army, but there is an unofficial link in the strong chain of Americanism, because the motto of a Boy Scout Is to "be prepared." If all the boys became Scouts, learned discipline and the like there would be less need for military training. They would be somewhat prepared and if the time ever came when the nation needed soldiers the job of training them would be easier. The call for Boy Scout week is not made to boys alone. The president has asked men in every cotnmunit;, to help the organization. Men of mature judgment and ,hfgh ideals are needed as counsellors and leaders. In many places numerous men have been acting as scoutmasters and as advisors to the boys. They have found thus a nopportunity to do a practical, helpful work foi the rising feneration.

The city authorities never advised the non-payment of rentals and have urged all along that they should be taken care of. Both the city and the water company has exercised great patience with the dilatoriness of the non-payee?, whs accepted advice that was not in keeping with the law and city ordinances. The water question in East. Chicago for several years has been a vexed one, but thanks to the good sense shown by the present city administration and thu water company it has been settled without any trouble.
