these points. Yet its pledges did not
hold.
Further, it had every opportunity
in the world to avoid war. England
was urging arbitration. Russia and
France were willing. Finally Austria
announced it's readiness to begin nego-
tiations with Russia. But then the
kaiser put an end to the peace efforts
by declaring war.
What reason is there to suppose
that still another treaty would have
stayed the German determination to
dominate the world?
Senator McCumber seems TO have
implicit confidence in the binding
powers of treaties. If he would look
closer home he would discover that
there are plenty of business organiza-
tons even here in highly civilized
America that pay no attention to the
obligations imposed on them by their
franchises, which are simply their
treaties with Municipalities.

KNOX RESOLUTION
GETS CRILIINC
Senator Thomas of Colorado Declares
1t Is Attempt to Dictate to Peace
Conference-Monroe Doctrine Is
Again Up In the Senate.

Washington, June 19.--Adoption of
the Krcx resolution regarding the
League of Nations and the peace
treaty viii be interpreted as an UNI
called for effort by the senate to die
tate to the peace conference, Senator
Thomas, Democrat, of Colorado, said
today in opposing the measure. The
Colorado senator declared the propos-
al that the senate declare itself now
against accepting the league as inter
twined with the peace terms was i'm
proper and unwise.
Before Senator Thomas spoke, SEN
ator Spencer, Republican, of Missouri,
who. had not previously indicated his
views regarding the League of Ma
tions, introduced a resolution propos-
ing that the senate declare that under
any league plan adopted, application
of the Monroe Doctrine must be re-
served entirely for national determin-
alton The resolution went over with
out action.
Essential National Policy.
The Spencer resolution would de-
clare the Monroe Doctrine an essential
national policy and that "the necessity
and extent of its application and en-
forcement are matters to be deter
mined alone by the United States"
The tariff, immigration and like in
ternal questions would be declared

the future or to send it's army or

control.
Senator Thomas in opening his adj
dress on the Knox resolution declared
the measure raised fundamental ques-
tions regarding the power of senate
in treaty making and also of expedi-
ency of an expression by the senate.
He said, "as part of the treaty
making power, we should not attempt
at this time to advise the peace con-

views concerning its work there or as

FIELD NOTES BY HATTIE.

You can make that old hillside
worth 500 an acre by planting Nc
Donald berries, which are trailing
blackberry. However, they should
have a pollenizer planted here and
there, or in rows among them. Dew
berries and Early Harvest blackber-
ries are fine for this. Fred Yeakey
has a planting of these and has been
selling berries since May IS. There
is also a planting on the Pines Planta-
ton. These berries for yield and earli-
ness, which means top prices, cannot
be excelled.
Never such a season for celery.
Early planting is now being prepared
for bleaching. Here is an industry
for Polk county that is being over
looked. We are speaking from knowl-
edge as at one time we lived where
this was the main industry of To-
cality. We can fill gap in the celery
market season. 1t produces an almost
unbelievable amount of money an
acre.
In common with most early vegeta-
bles garden peas did well this spring.
One of our truckers is planning on an
acre for next spring. A trial ship
ment to a point 500 miles north con-
WINGED him there was some easy early
money to be had from this never fail
ing crop. He will plant the Alaska.
Frank Rork, who never has fail
ure on cabbage, had new heads weigh
ing to pounds each when cabbage
was bringing 6 to 5 cents pound this
spring. He says that planting at the
right time, the right place and the
right variety spells success.
The Pines Plantation will can few
tomatoes Monday, the first of this
season. These are the Early Jewell
variety
Owing to the late ruling regarding
sweet potato plant inspection, the
planting here is below normal.
Plums are an enormously big crop
this year. Grape vines are loaded,
some virieties showing some rot at
this time.
Strawberries were profitable
crop, but owing to the dry summer
last year the plant crop was small
and the usual planting were not set
out last spring.
Cherries were also good crop, but
was not so good as last year. Rich
monds and Montmorenci are the mon
ey getters. A man who knows, says
have them on Mahaleb roots; the
Mazzard root is too strong grower
for here. 1t may not be generally
known, but one grower here has a
young orchard with 500 or more trees,
some of which produced case ga

Plans for Executive Committee.

Preceding the anti-prohibition DEM
onstration, the meeting had concerned
itself largely with arranging for the
election of the executive committee, to
be held next Friday night.
1t was announced that the union will
take over the program of the Govern
ment Recreation League. which has
had the backing of the War Camp
Community Service. The transfer to
the union puts 1t on a permanent basis.
While the union is not considering
wage matters, pending the outcome
of the Redistribution of government
clerks. it went on record last night
as favoring an increase in the pay Of
signature printers at the government
printing Office. and will use its ems
deavors to bring about such an inS
crease. These employees. it is stated.
are among the most poorly paid OF
any in the government service.

SENATE BILL WOULD ...s
REOPEN D. C. PAWNSH0PS
Dillingham; Measure Proposes to
Permit Lenders Of Money to
Charge 2 Per Cent Monthly.

A bill to amend the District loan
shark act SO as to permit pawnbrok-
ers and persons engaged in the lend
ing of money other than the banks,
trust companies. building and loan
associations, etc. to charge per cent
month was introduced in the Senate
Today by Senator Dillingham; of YER
mont. The bill was referred to the
District committee.
The bill SlInIiar to a measure in
troduced in the last Congress by Sen
Tor John Walter Smith of Maryland.
The purpose OF the Dill is to make it
possible for pawnbrokers to do BUSH
ness in the District of Columbia. The
present loan shark law permits the
charge of only l per cent a month.
1t is argued that the pawnshops are
frequently a necessity for poor peo-
pie in times of distress, enabling
them to obtain money quickly on
goods that they may have.
The Dillingham; bill, besides increas-
to per cent month, provides that
where any application for loan is
made in the District Of Columbia, even
though the actual lending of the
money takes place outside of the Dis
trict, the loan shall be considered as
having been made in the District OF
Columbia The purpose of this is to
put a stop to 3 per cent loans, which
are made just across the river in
Virginia.
