Believes Repeal Vital.

Asked what the interna tional situation
was. the president explained that as long
as the Judgment OF the whole world was
unanimously against the United States
on a question of national honor and
treaty obliga ton. foreign governments
generally would not be enthusiastic about
entering Into further treaties OF trade
agreements For this reason he held 1t
as vital 10 repeal the tolls exemption
clause.
There was deep feeling In the presi-
dents voice as he explained the Situa ton
10 one group OF callers. He referred to
the American nation as too big and pow
erful 10 be ungenerous or captiouS In Its
construction OF treaties The United
states he believes. is too big to say.
1--WE viii do just as little as possible and
as we please in interpreting our .oblisa-
tions" He insisted taat the thing for
the United States to do was voluntarily
and ungrudgingly TO make its own ships
pay tolls on an equality with other ma
tions as the points involved were too
small as compared with the international
inconvenience and loss OF prestige which
he thinks perma nently would be occa-
stoned.

Mulberry several years. A few weeks
ago the city council decided to try
the town manager" plan and Mar
