Serious Misconceptions Pre

vail Simplest Way Out

Mav be to Consider Treaty Without League of Nations. GERHANriRTGAGED

nV MRK Jil I.I.IVAN WASHINGTON. July 6 There is a general belief that Secretary Hughes has a plan In mind for the next step in our foreign relations, and there is universal confidence in Secretary Hughes' ability to make the best of a difficult situation. Beyond this there is nothing to be said as to what is going, to be done, now that the peace resolution is recognized as more or less innocuous, in affective, and merely technical. There are. however, serious miscon

ceptions on the subject of what is now possible to do. The cheerful talk about negotiating a new treaty of amity and commerce with Germany omits an important fact. Germany is not now free to negotiate any sort of treaty of commerce that she may feel like neeotiatine. Germany is under

mortgage, so to speak, to the allies. Germany is in the position of a bankrupt in the hands of trustees. Anybody who wants to deal with Germany must consult the trustees. Allies Control Th allies can permit Germany to do just as much or just as little in the way of a treaty with the United States as seems expedient to the allies. In short, the allies have a veto and an extremely large regulatory power over any negotiations between Germany and the United States looking to a new treaty. In noint of fact, when and if we

now set out to make a seperate treaty with Germany, we will have to deal not with Germany, but with Germany's guardian, the allies. Whether we like it or not, the fact Is that in making the new treaty with Germany, which everybody now contemplates, we will be dealing really with the allies and will actually be to use President Harding's phase, "engaging under the Versailles treaty." The allies are bound to each other by the Versailles treaty, and Germany's relations to the allies are determined by the Versailles treaty, and any new relation which we may now set up with Germany must be determined and limited by the Versailles treaty. See Easiest Way. Under these circumstances, penetrating persons here in Washington reafirni what President Harding said in April, namely, that the simplest way for us to get out of the delemma and resume normal relations with Germany and the rest of the world would ' be for President Harding to resubmit to the Senate the Versailles treaty.

with the league of Nations excepted, and with all other necessary qualifications. That this is the smplest way to go about it is incontrovertible. Against this fact must be balanced another. In any interference whicu the allies may quite reasonably set up to affect our new treaty with Germany, we have no formal or legal right to protest. Their position as holder of the mortgage is incontestable. But we do have a strength of position where in any trading or negotiating on this subject between the allies and the United States will servo us strongly. We are in a position such that tho r.llies will be sure to hesitate to take

an unreasonable position with regard to a new treaty between Germany and ourselves. The allies owe us a great deal of money, on which the interest is overdue. In many other respects we have an economic and financial position which the allies are sure to regiird with respect and which can be used as a counter weapon to tho allies' position of guardian over Germany. Are Bound Morally. Having stated this, it also is to bo stated that this is not a pleasant way to look at the subject. We are mor-j or less morally bound to respect the position of mortgage which the allies

have over Germany. We would be in

1S21 CHAUTAUQUA ATTRACTIONS ANNOUNCED; TALENT SECURED IS AMONG FINEST ON TOUR

Attractions at the 1921 chautauqua, to be held at Glen Miller park from Sunday, Aug. 21 to Sunday, Sept. 4, inclusive, are among the best to be secured. That the talent of speakers, lecturers and musicians is not equalled in former years is proved by a look at the completed program. The feature of the first day of the Chautauqua is the Homer Rodeheaver party, consisting of four people of which Mr. Homer Rodeheaver, the

famous singing conductor with "Billy"! Sunday, is the head. Mr. Rodeheaver is also known as one of the greatest slide trombone soloists in the country. He is slated to give several selections; on that instrument. In addition to his musical qualities, Mr. Rodeheaver is also a lecturer of note. Allen Coming Hon. Henry J. Allen, governor of Kansas, is the big attraction for Monday, Aug. 22, the second day of the chautauqua. He is a man of action and a firm believer in civic righteousness, according to those who know him. His addresses are generally characterized by their logical and forceful presentation of facts concerning public questions. Music by the Pilgrim Male quartet will offer the main entertainment for the third day, Tuesday, Aug. -23. The quartet comes from Boston, and ranks as one of the best male quartets in the country- Their program will consist

of classical, semi-classical, popular and operatic numbers that are guaranteed to appeal to all lovers of good music. Margaret Stahl Returns

After an absence of five years from the Richmond chautauqua platform, Margaret Stahl, reciter and interpreter of plays, will appear on Wednesday, Aug. 24. Chautauqua attenders will remember her work here when she presented "Strongheart," "The Unseen Empire" and "The Servant in the House." Miss Stahl will present an entirely new line of plays this year. Two features are booked for Thursday, Aug. 25. Rabbi Louis Wolsey, of Euclid Avenue Temple, Cleveland, (Continued on Page Eleven.)

SITUATION IS SERIOUS (By Associated 1 r'ss) LONDON, July 6. Great Britain. France and Italy may be compelled to adopt extensive and concerted measures against the Turkish nationalists, was declared by a number of London newspapers this morning. Reports that the nationalists have actually penetrated the neutral zone east of Constantinople and along the Sea of Marmora have not been confirmed, but there is reason to fear that they are concentrating forces to attack Constantinople. The situation has given rise to serious anxiety, ann the allied high com

missioners at Constantinople nave been conferring with General Harrington, commander of allied forces there, regarding steps to be taken 'a the event of a probable advance by the nationalists. May Use Navy General Harrington will have no alternative but to resist a Turkish advance to the utmost for the purpose of securing respect for the neutral zone, which was established by the entente, and insuring free navigation of the straits in accordance with the terms of the treaty of Sevres. Should hostile action be necessary, British naval forces may be employed in opposing the Turks, the London Times stated today. Connected with the situation arising from the concentration of nationalist troops around Ismid and farther north in Asia Minor, is a supposed Bugarian intrigue to recover western Thrace which Bulgaria lost as a consequence of the war. It is asserted Italy, Rumania, Jugo-Slavia and Czecho-Slovakia have already signed and convention which would check the Bulgarian plans.

LAKES OF HOT WATER

IN NORTHERN INDIANA Hot water in a super-abundance is now existing in all the lakes of northern Indiana. A heat wave of two-weeks' duration has penetrated the waters to a depth of four and five feet, and has actually changed the customary cool waters into basins of warm and near hot water. Vacationists at every lake from little Shoe lake to the great Lake Wawasee, seeking relief in the "cooling waters," were surprised and disappointed when they stepped into the water and experienced a feeling not unlike that when a person steps into a "hot bath." which has been allowed to cool off. One man who returned from Clear lake stated that he used the lake water for shaving, instead of heating water. Swimmers from Rome City declared that the water was so hot that they actually perspired when

they swam.
