i should be glad if those debates could
be supplemented by some definite reso-
htions expressing the views of the
Senate tersely and simply on some Of
Che most important points. Whether
thc Senate will take such action
although l know that we have very
definite opinionsI cannot tell, be-
cause there seems to be a feeling
among some Senator'S that it is an
act of intolerable audacity for the
Senate even to suggest to the Execu-
tive that it has opinions which ought
to be considered.
personally l do not share that view.
1t appears to me more becoming to
an autocratc government or to die
tator than to the consttutionally rep
resentative democracy which has thus
far made the government of the United
States so successful and which has
raised the country to the peak of
greatness to which it has attained. But

Senator Lodge said all are agreed in
fervent desire for peace and an
ardent hatred for war.

peace being our object. the first
step toward peace is to make a peace
with the country with which he have
been and are at war-that is, with Ger
many If the peace with Germany is
to be durable, terms must be exacted
which will make it, so far as human
foresight goes. impossible for Ger
many to break out again upon the
world with q, war of conquest. This
cannot be done by treaty engagements
and signatures to documents. At this
juhcture of affairs Germany would sign
anything and her pledge would be
as worthless as the guarantees she
gave to Belgium.
at is we'll also to remember that
Germany did not change its nature
overnight when the Kaiser ran away
to Holland. The deep-rooted ambi-
tons, the evil principles carefully in
stilled for half century, the barbar-
Gus methods and doctrines all remain
unaltered. Physical guarantees which
when taken would make signatures tc
treaties negligible can alone assure 6
durable peace with Germany.

French Revolution. The only resem-

both revolutions. Russia is weller

Who Will Direct
The Leagues Police Force?


"Suppose now that the court is estab-
lished with a police force behind it,"
he said. "An international police force
is an international army and navy
Who is to order that army and navy
into action, and who is to command it
when it is in action? Are we prepared
to allow any association of nations by
a majority vote to order the troops
and the ships of the United States to
go to war? Unless we are prepared to
do so we are not prepared to join q
league of nations which is going to
enforce peace, and we should never
put our name as nation to any treaty
or agreement which we are not ready
to carry out both in letter and spirit.
Are you ready to put your soldiers and
your sailors at the disposition of other

None of these twenty-four reports

of the campaign last Saturday.
Many of the counties in this dis

Although many cities of the State
will close their campaigns this week,
the State drive will continue until Oc-

oversubscribed by October ~.

Kentucky to reach its quota and was

Massachusetts Club Boy Prefers
Farming and School to Work
In Factory.

Washington, d. c., October -four
years ago a garden-club boy in Mas
sachusetts faced what would have
seemed even to an adult a hard prob
lem. Born in Italy, but thoroughly
inoculated with American ideas of the
necessity of education, James was told
by his father while in the eighth grade
that no longer could he be kept in
school. His future path was to lie to-
ward the nearby factory.
Believing, because of his garden
clug experience under the auspices of
the local leader for the United States
Department of Agriculture, that he
could earn as much by potato raising
outside of school hours as he could in
factory by devoting his whole time,
he finally obtained permission from
his father to try it. So successful was
he that summer that his father was
willing he should enter the ninth
grade in the fall.
The next spring the superintendent
let him have land to use for large
garden, To ten boys he had selected
from the upper grammar grades he
made the proposition to pay so much
an hour and to give each garden
plot, The following excellent advice
he offered to them in additions III
