Must Guarantee Peace.

Now. that is the kind of agree
ment that will have to be the foun-
dation Of the future life of the ma
tions Of the world. gentlemen. The
whole family OF nations will have
to guarantee 10 each nation that no
nation shall violate its political in
dependence or its territorial integ-
rity. That is the basis. the only con-
ceivable basis, for the future peace
Of the world, and ! must admit that
I was ambitious to have the states
OF the two continents Of America
show the way to the rest of the
world as to how to make a basis OF
peace. Peace can come only by trust
AS long as there is suspicion, there
is going to be Misunderstanding, and
as long as there Is Misunderstanding
there is going to be trouble. II you
can once get a situation OF trust,
then you have got a situation OF
permanent peace. Therefore, every
one OF us. it seems to me, owes IT
as a patriotic duty to his own coun-
try to plant the seeds OF trust and
OF confidence instead Of the seeds
Of suspicion and variety of interest.
That is the reason that l began by
saying to you that I have not had
the pleasure OF meeting a group OF
men who were more welcome than
you are, because you are our near
neighbOrs, Suspicion on your part or
Misunderstanding on your part dis
tresses us more than we would be
distressed by similar feelings @ the
part of those less near by.
when you reflect how wonderful a
Of treasure Mexico is, you
can see how her future must depend
upon peace and honor, so that nobody
shall exploit her. II must depend
upon every nation that has any rela-
tions with her, and the citizens Of
any nation that has relations with
her, keeping within the bounds CT
honor and fair dealing and Justice, be-
cause so soon as you can admit your
own capital and the capital OF che
world to the free use Of the resources
Of Mexico, IL will be one Of the most
wonderfully rich and prosperous coun-
tries in the world. And when YOU
have the foundations OF established
order, and the world has come TO its
senses again, we shall, hope, have
the very best connections that will
assure us all a permanent cordiaIity !

Look With Regret.
Some Of US, IL I may say so pri-
vately, look back with regret upon
some OF the more ancient relations
that we have had with Mexico long
before our generation; and America,
II 1 may so express It, would now
feel ashamed to take advantage OF a
neighbor. So. hope that you can
carry back to your homes something
better than the assurances OF words,

You know, how gladly we
have opened to you the doors of every

ing It, gentlemen, so that the world
may never hereafter have to fear the
only thing that any nation has to
dread, the unjust and selfish aggres-
sion Of another nation. Some time
posed a sort OF Pan-American agree

the difficulties Of our relationship
with Latin-America was this: The
famous Monroe doctrine was adopted

consent OF any OF the Central or
South American states, II l may ex-
press II in the terms that we so often
use in this country, we said, we are
going to be your big brother, whether
you want us to be or not
I'VE did not ask whether 1t was
agreeable to you that We should be
your big brother. We said we were
going to be. Now, that was all very
we'll so far as protecting you from
aggression from the other side of the
water was concerned, but there was
nothing in Il that protected you from
aggression from us. and / have re-
seen the uneasy feeling on
the part Of representatives OF the
States Of Central and South America
hat our self-appointed protection
might be for our own beneft and our
,wn interests and not for the interest
of our neighbors- So I said, Very
we'll, let US make an arrangement by
which we will give bond. Let us have
/ common guarantee, that all Of US
will sign, Of political independence
md territorial integrity. Let US agree
hat II anyone OF US. the United States
included, violates the political inde-

II any Of the others. all the others
will jump on her. I pointed out to
5ome OF the gentlemen who were less
Inclined to enter into this arrange

NO DIsLoYALTY ALLOWED.
Gov. Capper Order Investigation OF
NOn-Partisan League.

Kansas must be vigilant in run
ming down every form OF disloyalty.
No organization must be permitted
to spread a reasonable propaganda.
This was made plain by Governor
Capper today, in letter forwarded
to chairman OF the council of de-
Tense of Dickinson and other coun-
ties. He says: II have just received
request from an official OF the fed
eral government to make investiga-
ton of the activities of the organiza-
ton known as the "Non-Partisan
League" This official informs me
there are rumors that workers of this
organization are travelling through
Kansas and Oklahoma and are
spreading, or are trying to spread.
1.-The widest sort OF anti-government
propaganda" among farmers. AS
promptly as possible, will you be
kind enough to make thorough in
vestigation thru the officers and
members of your county, and report
on what you learn. The state of
Kansas and the people OF Kansas will
tolerate no enemy propaganda. and
PROSECUTING of any sort against the
government is rankest treason in this
war for self-preservation.
A salaried organizer for Texas
has been working in Dickinson county
for several months, getting members
of the League. 1t is reported that
there are 80 members in the Wood
bine neighborhood and as many more
in other parts of the county Each
member pays SIC for the privilege
of joining and big fund is thus
gathered for promotion. North OAK

CARRIER PIGEON FOUND AT
THE A. McBOYLE PLACE

A carrier pigeon, probably on its
way to Camp Funston, was found
disabled at the A. McBoyle home two
weeks ago. The pigeon flew to the
transom of the McBoyle house late
in the evening and when they took
it inside celluloid tag was found on
its foot, which was injured. The tag
bore the stamp OF the Brunson Manu-
featuring Company OF Massachusetts
and the only other marks on the tag
we're two fours, one in each lower
corner. The pigeon is still at the
McBoyle place but will not associate
with the other hundred pigeons there.
Many carrier pigeons are being
trained at Funston and it is prob
able that it belongs there.

FRENCH OFFICERS CAUSE
MUCH GAZING AND GASPING,
AbiIenites Given Opportunity TO See
Men From Trenches.

Four French officers, accompanied
by an American non-commissioned Of
ficer, we're in Abilene from Camp
Funston yesterday afternoon. They
stopped at the Tip Top Inn where a
large crowd gathered to gaze at them
and gasp at the number of medals
which two of them wore.
P. 0. Lucier talked to them and
learned that they are instructors at
Camp Funston. The four are SER
geants in the French army and this
type of French soldier has been nick
named 1.-THE Blue Devil" by the Ger
mans. They told Mr.. Lucier that they
we're becoming used to the gazes OF
the Americans but at first they
thought it rather peculiar.
The medals were won for heroic
deeds. One of them said that the
safest place is in No Mans Land. II
Frenchman meets a German there
neither speaks for fear of shots from
the Germans or French. They also
told Mr.. Lucier that no matter what
point of view conditions are consid-
cred, everything here is different
from France. From here they went
to Salina.
