ANTI-LEAGUE (Continued from Page One.) Senator Knox's substitute for our entering the league of nations. This, Knox plan is not of course a league. It is not a treaty or anything else of the kind. It is a mere public official declaration of policy. Senator Knox himself admits this. In arguing for it he says "avowed by public official declaration it might prove worthy I believe to serve with the Monroe doctrine as a fundamental doctrine of American diplomacy. It entangles us in no way." Question Arises. At this point arises an interesting question. Does this proposal of Senator Knox to which I am satisfied the Republican senate will attempt to restrict Senator Harding's plan, fulfill the repeated' promises made in Senator Harding's campaignfepeeches that be would take steps to bring about "An Association of Nations" in the intcests of permanent peace. If Senator Harding assents to this

proposal from the Senate, and does not go any further than his proposal does, can be then regarded as having lived up to hi3 campaign pledge? This point evidently worried Senator Knox a little for, in the course of his argument in favor of his proposal. He said: Points Out Association. "The declaration of a policy 6uch as indicated, followed by a similar declaration by other nations, would constitute an Association of Nations bound together by a common purpose that, as I have said on another occasion, neither parchment, sealing wax, signatures nor blue ribbons could make more obligatory or effective." That constitutes ail that is now affirmative and formal in the Senate proposal with regard to our foreign relations. But certain other things are contemplated separatefy. What these other things are can be discovered from another paragraph in the argument which Senator Knox made to Senator Harding. It reads: "Such a declaration of policy would not interfere with the codification of international law. The creation, of a court to decide international differences of a justifiable character, the appointment of commissions to investigate political questions that threaten war for the purpose of enlightening the public opinion of the world upon the merits of the question involved, or any other measures, including disarmament, that might be agreed upon by the nations to lessen the probability of war." Other Negotiations. It is apparent, therefore, that the senate proposes that there shall go forward, subsequent to the passage of the Knox resolution and separate from it and from each other, certain negotiations leading to these things which Senator Knox says his resolu tion does not interfere with: namely, an agreement for disarmament, an agreement to codify international law, an agreement creating an international court, and an agreement for commissions to investigate questions threatening war.

Slowly and gradually, probably over a series of years. At this point arises the question: "What will the .League do about it? Will , the League insist on going on and functioning even with us out?" Strategy Will Win. Even it the "Harding plan" should depart from the Knox plan, and if Harding should make an issue with Knox and his Senatorial followers Harding will lose and Knox will win. Knox will win because of an astute bit of strategy that given him a mathematical advantage. Knox has put his plan in the rhape of a resolution. I think he must have done so consciously having this strategy in mind. A resolution can be passed by a majority of the Senate. Harding'B plan if it goes farther than Knox's and involves agreements with foreign nations, can only be passed by two-thirds of the Senate. This is how the League situation nfcw stands.

Pittsburg Church to Give

Wireless Service Sunday (By Awioclated Preas.) PITTSBURGH, Jan. 8. Persons residing within 800 miles of Pittsburgh, and having wireless telephone receivers, will be able to "listen in" on servJces at the Calvary Protestant Episcopal church here tomorrow. A manufacturing concern, handling wireless telephone equipment, has installed transmitting apparatus at the church. The company has been advised by many amateur operators that they enJoyed the music and sermon delivered at the church last Sunday and transmitted on the wireless telephone. Among those who "listened in" last week were operators at Baudett, Minn. Ellendale, N. D., Merchantville, ,N. J., Springfield, Mass., and many other points. POWERS OF DARKNESS FOUGHT BY NATIVES; GOVERNOR INTERFERES PAPEETE. Tahiti. Jan. 8. Drastic treatment for witchcraft recently Was applied in the Island of Raivavae. led to a charge of arson. The government resident then sentenced the natives concerned to hard labor on the roads in the neighboring island of Tubai. Raivavae is one of the islands of the Austral group to the south of Tahiti in the South Seas. Recently there died on that island an old woman, who during her lifetime (on accont of her alleged powers of magic and vindictive temper) had held the islanders and particularly those of her old family connection, in a state of fear. To offend her, according to the native story, meant & speedy visitation of misfortune, sickness and even death, upon those who had aroused her displeasure. Death Fails to Part. For some time before her death, her wrath had been directed against some of her nearer relatives, and conscious that her end was near, she warned them that her passing would fail to relieve them from her vengeance, but that even from the shades her power would prevail against them. Curiously enough, the native story runs, no sooner had the old Beldame been gathered to her fathers than things began to happen; sickness broke out among those who laid under her curse; pigs and fowls died fiom no apparent cause; "The amospbere about the dwellings seemqd charged with menacing influences. With fear in their hearts the natives under affliction consulted an ancient warlock who advised that the only way would be to disinter the bones of the witch, beat them to powder and burn them in the house in which she died. This they did. Exit Witch; Enter Governor. With much ceremony and many incantations by the old warlock the bones were unearthed and transported to the house and the house itself was burned to the ground, to make assurance doubly sure. All supernatural manifestations, the natives declare, then ceased. But misfortune grevious and dire, descended from another quarter. The government resident hearing of the affair, summoned all who were connected with it to his presence and on the charge of arson, sentenced them to various terms of hard labor on the roads of Aubuai. ENGAGEMENT ENGAGED LONDON. Jan. 8. Announcement is made of the engagement of Terry C. Durham, a lieutenant in the United States artillery and son of W. A. Durham of Appomattox,-Virginia, to mary a daughter of Sir Leicester Harmsworth, brother of Lord Northcliffe.
