STATEMENT Of THE

The section providing for an int
junction to abate a liquor nuisance
follows the procedure and precedent:
in state prohibition laws The right
Of trial by jury is guaranteed in
criminal cases, but the right to en-
join a liquor nuisance has always
been lodged with the court. and the
same right should obtain as to a
liquor nuisance.
We believe that the provisions Of
the enforcement code. as adopted by
the house, with the exception Of
minor details. represent tho average
public sentiment of this nation on the
question of law enforcement. The
vote of EST to 1o1 for the code in the
house is indicative of the feeling OF,
the people that a reasonable and en-
forceable code should he adopted that
will carry out the purpose of the pro-.
hihition amendment. This means the,
enactment of a code with substan-

learned directly that the Chinese
representatives in Washington have
informed leading Republican members
of the senate that they have good
reasons to believe new secret agree
ment or understanding has been reach
ed between Great Britain, France and
Japan, by which Great Britain ana
France are to side with Japan in the
future on Asiatic questions. just as
they sided with her against the United
States at the Paris conference
The Republican senators to whom
this information was given have been
invited by the Chinese representatives
to probe this information with view
to ascertaining the exact truth.
The Chinese representatives have
told senate leaders that they know alb
solutely Japan was endeavoring in
Paris to arrange such an agreement,
They CLAIM. to have admissions from
the French foreign minister. Pichon,
British statesmen to that effect They
have no absolute proof. they admit, of
the contamination of the agreement.
but they have what they consider very
good reasons to believe it was con-
summated. 1t Is asserted that this
private understanding was reached be-
fore the revision of the covenant of
the league of nations and this Is the
explanation of the peculiar language
used in Article II OF the covenant
characterizing the Monroe doctrine as
regional understanding.
1t VIII be recalled that when article
81 as revised was published. there was
great deal OF comment over it's
strange phraseology. Statesmen here
we're unable to understand or compre-
bend why the Monroe Doctrine should
have been described as a regional I'M
derstanding." The explanation given
by the Chinese is that. in their be-
lief. the words regional understand
Ing" were designed to cover the alleged
new secret understanding between
Great Britain, France and Japan with
respect to the future control in Asia
as we'll as the Monroe Doctrine.
The Republican senate leaders also
have been informed by the Chinese rep
OF all the circumstances
under which China was induced to
sever diplomatic relations with Ger
many and enter the war on the side Of
the allies.
1t is stated that original representa-
tiops OF the intention of the United
States to look out for the interests OF
China were renewed by the American
high commission when the peace con-
ference met in Paris.

ALIENS BIG HEART
Governor Sought Release Court Mar
tiaEed Kansas Soldiers.

Governor Allen probably will con-
suit a military rule book before he
hastens to the relief of another bunch
OF soldiers who want to come home.
Thursday he received a telegram to
the effect that seventy Kansans-cas-
uals and Gao. 13 men-were held at
Camp Hill, Va. Today it was learned
that General Order thirteen means
men under court martial-but the wire
has gone to the war department
Frequently the governor has re-
ceived letters and kilograms asking him
to aid in returning Kansas soldiers to
their homes. Always the matter has
been presented to the war department.
But today the discovery of the mean
ing of G. o. l 3 is giving state depart
ments a lot of concern.
When the telegram reached the
governors office it was assumed that
the senders---signed kansas SOL
diers"--wanted to get home. There
was haste in asking the war depart
meRt to get busy. But of course Gov
ernor Allen didn't know he was ask
ing for the release of a bunch of men
held under some form of court martial
regulations. After the wire had gone
to the war department, someone con-
suited the military rules and regula-
tions. Then the horrible facts were
made clear.

time. owning to the war, the depart
