THE PEACE TREATY PLAN.

If any one wonders at my earnest
and persistent opposition TO declar-
alton of war, let him remember that,
after laboring for eig Int years to
providing for the investigation OF all
disputes by international tribunal
before resorting to war-a years
time being allowed for Investigation
and report was made happy by
President Wilson's cordial endorse
ment of the plan.
BY his authority ] called all for
eign representatives to the state de-
partment on the 26th of April, 1913,
and laid this plan before them, and
then began negotiation with each OF
the individual nations. Within two
years from that date, treaties had
been concluded with thirty nations,
including Great Britain, France,
Italy and Russia-thirty nations ex-
three hundred millions OF people, OR
three-fourths of the population OF
the globe. Besides these Germany,
Austria and Belgium formally en-
dorsed the plan, and although treat
les have not yet been concluded with
these nations.
These treaties were ratified by the
United States senate, the vote being
unanimous after the ratification OF
the third treaty. -,
AS this treaty plan, offered to all
the world-and the offer has never
been withdrawn-gives us an honor
able means of adjusting all disputes
with all nations. it surely affords an
honorable means OF adjusting dis
pute arising out of unintendetl in
juries done by nation which has
endorsed the plan, although no
treaty has yet been negotiated.
Is it unreasonable or unpatriotic
to urge, as means Of preventing
war, the employment OF plan used
by the president, and approved by
the senate, the United States and
nearly all the rest of the civilized
world?
Is it unreasonable or unpatriOtic
to urge that the people. having en-
dorsed these treaties at the polls,
should be consulted, by referen-
dunn vote, before congress repudiates
the peace treaty plan by declara-
ton of war?
The President still hopes for peace,
and | pray as earnestly as he that
Germany may do nothing to further
atgravate the situation. Because 1t
is the duty of the patriot to support
his government with all his heart in
time Of war, he has a right, in
time OF peace. to do what he can to
prevent war. ! shall live up to a
patriots duty if war comes-until
that time shall try to save my -coun-
try from its horrors.

TOO SMALL FOR IOWA.

The JOhnston-Pitt crowd at Des
MOines seem to have drafted a road
bill that is so reactionary and 50
DusillanimOus that there is good real
son to hope that the Iowa legisla ture
will turn it down and decline to Join
in throwing wrench into the good
roads machinery that has been run
ming none too fast, but quite salts
factorily for the past three years.
AS the secretary OF the Greater
Iowa Association points out, the bill
reduces the number of mlSsioners
from three to one, moves MIN TO
Des Moines. makes him >appolntlVe
every two years by the governor, and
puts onto him also the supervision OF
all the activities under the drainage
law in the entire state.
Revenues available for work Tor
the highway commission, the lake
survey, and drainage operations, now
$4,000 year, would be cut to $40
600
in other words the highway COM
mission would be wiped out, and an
important group of state acuVlues
would be merged under one lndlVld-
ual, political appointee OF the gov
eInor. and systematic, progressive
road improvement in this state would
be remembered only as dream that
was cherished back in 1916 ana
made impossible in 1917.
Governor Harding, Mr.. Johnston,
Mr.. Pitt and the whole mud roads
crowd ought to be ashamed Of such
a nrOgram.-Daven Democrat.

A CAUSE FOR THANKFCLNESS.

In the presence of the Senate and
the House of Representatives today
the electoral vote will be counted,
and the final constitutional step in
the election of president completed.
The American people have pro-
found reason for thankfulness that
Woodrow Wilson was reelected
President of the United States and
that Charles e. Hughes was defeat
ed.
Otherwise they would practically
be without a government in this
crisis.
President Wilson would have been
disavowed and discredited. Mr..
Hughes would still be private citi-
zen. The Congress that is now in
session would be without command
ing leadership and the congress that
was elected in November would not
be in existence.
President Wilson and Mr.. Hughes
might easily have been able to agree
between themselves as to the policy
that the government should follow.
but neither of them would be in a
position to carry out that policy or to
appeal effectively to congress for sup
port,
The government would inevitably
Tho country would be
drifting. Sentiment would be divid-
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1917-02-22

ed. Partnership would be bitter and
rancorOus, and instead OF united
public opinion sustaining the govern
ment we should be headed straight
to disaster.
Many times during the campaign
The World warned the American peo-
pie that Mr.. Hughes election would
certainly mean war with Germany,
and that even with President Wilson
reelected it was by no means certain
that we should escape war 1t is now
apparent to everybody that with the
President defeated the German gov
eminent would have enterd upon it's
submarine campaign with supreme
confidence that the United States was
a house divided against itself.
1t is plain enough that what Ger
many did not count upon was the
great popular uprising in this coun-
try against the submarine decree and
the Overwhelming popular support
that rallied behind the President
when he severed diplomatic relations
with the German government. I'M
perial Germany guessed wrong again.

On May i. 1917, will take effect
the first immigration act containing
a literacy test provision ever to pass
the congress of the united States, a
bill enacted into law only after, the
veto of President Wilson mad Deen
overridden. For the present this
probably euds the discussion OF the
advisability OF the literacy test. a
discussion that has held attention

comes effective little more than

other act of a president elected such
an outpouring of popular appropa-
ton as that of President wilson IN
breaking off diplomatic relations
with Germany. The ASTONISHING
thing is that even five senator's could
be found to vote against the resolu-
ton approving the presidents act.
