WILSON POUNDS AGAINST STONE WALL DECLARED Hays Says President Has Lost Battle for Unqualified Acceptance of League. CHICAGO, Sept. 8 la a statement here today Will H. Hays, chairman of the Republicana national committee, declared that President Wilson -was pounding against a stone wall in attempting to have the peace treaty ratified without reservations, Chairman Hay's statement in full follows: "I agree with President Wilson that the treaty will be ratified, but the ratification will be accomplished by reservations absolutely safeguarding the full independence and freedom of action of this republic. That is the simple fact which the President may as well recognize first as last. At pres&at he is only pounding against a stone wall of patriotism which has already become impregnable and is daily increasing in width, strength and height. The committee reservations constitute the irreducible minimum of the requirements evidences multiply daily that they will have the support

of a substantial majority of senators who can not be coerced or cajoled into violating their oaths of office to hold America first. No Partisanship, He Says "There is no partisanship in their position. True, every Republican senator without exception stands with the committee, but because he is an American not because he is a Republican. I sincerely believe further that an actual majority of the Democratic senators fell the same way and evidences multiply daily that when the lime comes a considerable number will vote the same way. "It is for the President to determine when the test shall be made. The treaty will be reported out this week and a vote can be had as soon as it can be reached under the rules unless it is delayed by senators acting under the direction of the Persident himself. It is simply now up to the administration to decide whether it will or will not accept at once these essential guarantees of American independence which will unquestionably be promptly accepted by the other nations. It is imperative that this matter be settled risht. It ought, by all means, to be settled promptly. The full responsibility for any delay will rest upon the President and him alone."

Nature Blotting Out

Scars Left by War

(By Associated Press)

DOVER. Eng.. Aug. 24. Former

British officers returning from France

and Belguim where they have been going over the ground where a year

ago they were still fighting, express atsonishment at the manner in which

nature is blotting out the scars of

the war.

"No Man's Land everywhere is

covered with a mass of scarlet pop

pies," said one officer, "and the disapnearance of the rusty barbed wire

makes one almost forget the place was

ever the most desolate prospect a man

ever saw. But the trenches are still

there and so is much of the timber, both startling reminders of the days

when we did not know just what was

going to happen next."

Nobody "Wanted," by

Wayne County Officers Because the motto of Wayne county

officials has been "go get 'em" instead

of "wait till they come back," Wayne county has no list of forbidden persons, fugitives from justice, who find

it safer to stay away from the county.

Although the great majority of the

communities throughout the country have lists of names of men who are

"wanted" for some crime or other, and who dare not return to that community, Wayne county has no such list, and as far as is known to officials, there is not one who cannot come Into the county at any time without fear of the law. This condition has been brought about by the activities of the county sheriff and other officials, who have gone into other communities and arrested violatoVs of local laws.

ITALIANS TO COMBAT GROWTH OF ANARCHY

(By Associated Prwss) ROME, Sept 8. Intermittent and sporadic strikes, which have produced throughout Italy conditions in eomo instances approximating bolshevism, in others a kind of socialism and in still others localized anarchy, have given Italian political economists and statemen new epurs to study and remedial action. There has been "rule without rule" according to foreign observers. The government agencies long established for the administration of public affairs existed but failed to function. Municipal authorities, communal officials

and representatives of the state admitted they were helpless to deal with the unusual situations which rendered Inactive the prerogatives of those

in power. Striking workmen forced

demands upon a helpless commercial

class it is pointed out while the au

thorities .merely looked in "in obedience to the will of the disturbers."

The organizations throughout Italy

tht planned the newest departure in

governmental and economic adminis

tration were styled Camera del La-

voro. A literal translation would de

fine them as Chambers of Labor but

their functions went much beyond the province of labor, as one ordinarily

conceives that province, and extended so far that prices were arbitrarily fix

ed and the sale of commodities was

ordered.

Which Way Will City Grow? Real Estate Men Say They Cant Tell

"It Is more or less a matter of opinion," was the consensus of a number of local real estate men when asked whether the building of homes within the city in the next twenty-five years would be greater in the east or west section of the city. Many of them felt that the building, for the most part, would be in the west side. They laid this to the fact that the land east of town is more broken and rough, tending to make the erection of fine homes difficult. They were all of the opinion that the time for the building of fine homes is now at hand. The ground on the west side for the most part is even and firm, which will make possible not only fine foundations but also beautiful terraces, they said. Still others boasted the east end, claiming that the number of factories in the west side would tend to maka it an undesirable section of the city to live in. As soon as the country gets back to its normal basis a great boom in the real estate business is predicted.
