Senator Willim J. Stone of Missouri,
who is chairman of the senate com
Imittee on foreign relations.
Mr.. Taft's visit to the west will
afford an exceptional opportunity TO
hear an authoritative exposition of
the plans and purposes of the League
to Enforce Peace There have been
so many misunderstanding and mis-
statements of the leagues principles
recently that the committee on man
agement deemed it worth while to
give out the following formal state
ment:
The League to Enforce Peace, as
it has frequently declared, is not a
stop-the-war movement 1t contem-
plates a league of nations to be set
up after the present war We take
this opportunity TO declare that the
league is committed only by its pro.
gram and the authorized interpreta.
tion thereof and not by the views ex-
pressed by individual members"
Mr.. Taft and party will leave St.
Louis at 1910 p. m. December II
for Topeka where they will be en-.
tertained at luncheon at u O'Clock
next day. At l o'clock Messrs. Taft
and Michener will address a great
mass meeting in Topeka, leaving i'm
mediately afterward for Kansas City
The party will stop over in Lawrence
long enough to enable Mr.. Taft to
make a brief address to the 5000 stu.
dents at Kansas State University. \
part Of the plans laid by the Kansas
state executive committee of the
League to Enforce reace is to draft
a hundred or more of these students
to make speeches on the league
throughout the state during the hol

All reports from Missouri and Kan
sas indicate that the leading men in
those states are as intensely interest
ed in the proposals of the League TO
Enforce Peace as are the people of
New England, where no halls can be
found large enough to accommodate
the crowds that turn out to hear the
volunteer speakers who are explain
ing the leagues proposals. At all
important points II has been neces-
lsary to hold overflow meetings and
work the speakers in RELAYS. In Wor-
cester Mass, Mayor Wright desig-
mated Nov "a as League to Enforce
Peace Day" Volunteers made speech
.es at high schools and colleges. while
President Taft and others addressed
two big mass meeting at night. At

Work Michener raised $4,000 in less
than ten minutes to defray the ex-
penses of the state campaign. The

ing free posters for bill boards cards

Question Not Up.

Members OF the city council tonight
may stampede the report of the
finance committee, and draft an ap-
preparation OF their own if a few stray
remarks dropped last night can be
taken as criterion. One of the items
subtracted by the committee upon
which 4 fight may be started is the
elimination Of $500 from the water
DEPARTMENTS estimate which had been
placed there to install chlorinating
plant at the water works. 1t is be.
lieved a number of councilmen will
fight to restore the appropriation.
In addition. representatives of labor
will appear before the body, it. is un.
derstood, to uphold the demands OF
the various department laborerj IN
their fight for higher wages. OF
course there will be some enemy OF
the police department take fling at
the items providing for an auto amhul-
ance and a new patrol wagon, MOTOR
driven, but it is not thought 1t will
make any difference, and this item will
likely go through.
Councils work will be on the anpro.
priations alone. with one or two COM
mittee reports before it. This WAS
decided yesterday when City Solicitor
Bremen ruled that the body could not
act legally on the filtration question
at the meeting held tonight. This
means another long delay for pug

laid. Mayor Kirk issued the call for
