of Thomas II. Farnsworth for an

addressed to Tho Evening Star. Mr..
Smith was born in the District OF CO.

Il do not know the promoters OF the

Bristol, but I know that cannot go
amiss by addressing you, feeling that
you can put the name am about to
suggest into proper hands.
"On the 18th Of September, 1917, a
young man. lieutenant in the Flying
Corps. gave up his life that q greater
end might be reached. After being at
tackled by three enemy planes he
fought bravely to the end, saying as
he died: They haven't got me yet AS
a boy he participated In athletics at
the Eastern High School and repre-
scented the Potomac Boat Club and
later Cornell University on the river.
He was loved and admired by all who
came in contact with him. 1 am sure
that if the men of Northeast Wash
ington stop to think they will not
hesitate to have their post known as
the Thomas II. Farnsworth Post Of
the American Legion
Il trust you to suggest this name to
the proper persons, so that it may
never be forgotten, and let the men,
bers of the legion know that though
far away | am interested in whatever
interests them"

Frank critics of the peace confer
ence lay the blame for much of his
on those idealists who undertook to
remodel the entire world and bring
about the millennium at once in
stead of first making peace and per
hitting the b%elligerent nations to re-
sumo the ordered activities of civil
lied existence. That the gentlemen
gathered in Paris have recognized
their error is apparent in their present
haste to complete the peace treaty
and have 1t signed. They will, accord
include in the treaty a formal state
ment concerning the league of nations.
because Germany will be required by
the treaty to surrender her colonies
to manufactures of the proposed
league. but It is not unlikely that the
adoption OF the full constitution of the
league will be deferred. The first
treaty, which was being considered
last week by Wilson, Lloyd George,
Clemenceau and Orlando, II was said,
was sufficiently firm in its terms to
insure a lasting peace would simplify
the international food problem and
pave the way for Industrial and
financial reconstruction. The princi-

sideration were: (1) To insure ample

The league of nations commission,
with President Wilson in the chair,
completed its consideration of the
covenant of the league Wednesday
night. It was turned over to a draft
ing committee which was to go over
1t carefully and return it to the com-
mission for final consideration before
1t was reported to the executive com
mittee of the peace conference. Many
proposed amendments to the original
plan were considered, including v
suggested by Charles Il. Hughes and
those drafted by former President
Taft. 1t was understood that Mr.. VIII
son had deferred the presentation of
amendments safeguarding the Monroe
doctrine and exempting domestic
questions from the leagues jurisdic-
ton. No amendment has been incor-
porated that specifically meets the de-
mands of Japan for recognition of the
equality of nationals.
Among the amendments adopted was
one providing that the Offices Of the
league are open { o women as well as
to men. and one permitting the with
drawal of a member on 1--WE years
notice, but not until such member has
| filed its international obligations.
