ing occasion. After their arrival
on a late train they and Mr.. and
Mrs. McConagha breakfasted at

to say that Mr.. and Mrs. Upton
started Us off we'll fed. Mr.. Han
ley preached to full house IN
his usual attractive style. All

went away disappointed. After
the hour of worship Rev. and
Mrs. Hanley, Miss Margaret Lyle,
of Louisville, and Mr.. and Mrs.
McConagha were the guests at
fine turkey dinner at the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Atkin-

side fell to Senator Williams.
II was In answer to questions asked
by Senator Fall that Sens&or Will
Jams made his statement regarding
the Presidents attitude The Mis-
sissippi Senator declared that the
treaty as a whole was q compromise;
that 1t was impossible for any nation
to have It's way. He added:
IF this concession had not been
made to Japan by the conference. then
Japan would have made a separate
treaty with Germany and 80 the con-
ference had to yield. Unless we want
ed to withdraw from the Peace Con-
ference it, was necessary to grant
Japan's demand for recognition Of her
rights In China We couldn't have
everything our own way.
II do not approve Of taking this
territory away from China and giving
II to Japan. and I don't believe the
President approves of 1t. But Japan
was supported by her secret treaties
with England and France. and II the
American commissioners undertook to
resist her they would have simply gone
uP dBdulSl wall anu WOulQ
have accomplished nothing. So the
President had to yield to get Japan
to accept the treaty"
Berah Makes Reply.
Replying to this statement by the
Mississippi Senator, Senator Borah
said:
II am very well satisfied with the
reason given by the Senator from
Mississippi as to why the Shantung
province was given to Japan. It
was given to Japan because she
wouldn't agree to the treaty other
wise Japan demanded Shantung
and she refused to become a mem
Der Of the league of nations unless
she got II. and she was supported
by England and France.
The President OF the United
States was unable to do Sanything
else. I do not criticise the Presi-
dents conclusion that the peace of
the world was more important than
the mere partition OF China Bot
the question is whether the United
States will become . party to the
Shantuns seizure. Every nation at
the conference was under solemn
treaty to protect the integrity OF
China and every nation which help
ed to distribute Shantung to Japan
and to dismember China had such a
treaty to, protect China's territorial
integrity"
Senator Fall brought out the point
that Germany acquired her rights In
China by seizure and that the only
rights which Japan possessed were
obtained by forcefui taking over OF
these German rights. Therefore. he
continued. when China declared war
on the central powers all rights which
Japan had acquired from Germany
were abrogated.

from Budapest.
