A LITTLE SWIFT POINDEXTER

Senator Miles Poindexter was lust q
little swift in his characterization of Pies.
ident Wilson in his address at Long Island
last week. While it may be fact that
there is more or less truth in what he
said, yet sometimes the truth had better
be unspoken, and again considerable ti,uc
has elapsed since the happening of which
the senator referred to, and during that
time the President may have changed has
mind. Here are some Of the things the
senator said. Just read them and see if
you do agree with us that the Senator
was just little bit swift:

as the worlds greatest menace by Unit
ed States Senator Miles Poindexter at a

cans in Long Island City, to celebrate the

STOP SUGAR PROFITEERING

There are intimations that some Of the
sugar interests of the state are planning
to increase the price of sugar corpora
tions will not make such blunder.
This year there will be no government
control of sugar and the corporations will
have it within their power to do the right
thing by the public or to conn., them
selves to the irretrievable error of profit
teemng. Business judgment should die
tate most conscientious effort to be
fair. That is the duty of all corporations
in these times of unparalleled unrest IF
they fulfill their duty they will rank as
conservators of society; if they fail in
their duty they cannot escape responsible
ity as aiders and abettors of dangerous
forms of radicalism.
No interests were more loyal to the gov
eminent during the war than the sugar
corporations. They pledged themselves
to aid the government in every DO ;siole
way and they kept their pledge. They
perfected splendid organization to as
sist government control and that without
expense to the government. The organiza-
ton we hear, is still going concern and
can be employed as efficiently FOR the
benefit of the public as it was employed
during the conflict for the benefit of the
country.
The same patriotic motives should con-
strain the sugar interests to defer to the
consumers for the country has not passed
the war crisis of industrial unrest and
radical violence. The highest duty of
corporations is to serve the public. The
duty to make profit for stockholders and
interest for bondholders is, and should
always be, subservient to the public good.
Fortunately the issue is not one of pro-
fits but of profiteering. The public is
wholly willing that the sugar interests of
this state should make substantial profits
but will not forgive them if they enter IN
to the game of profiteering.
Sugar should be sold to the consumer
at fair price based on ten dollar beets.
If profits are calculated on any other
basis the sugar interests will bring down
upon themselves Just criticism and, soon
er or later, retribution Enlightened self
interest should persuade them to be fair
with the public in this period of storm and
stress when the very foundations of civil
society and Of government are at stake.

THE DIE is CAST

According to Senator Spencer of Mis-
souri, the die is cast" and the treaty
and league of nations will not be ratified
without reservations. The Senator says;
II say, with all the conviction in
my power that the treaty Of peace as
it is now written will never be rati-
fled by the senate of the United
States, and that before it ever re-
ceives the sanction of the represen-
tatives of the people here assembled,
reservations similar in effect to those
which the committee on foreign re-
lations have already reported must
be inseparably interviewer with the
ratification itself"
And if the treaty and league are de-
feated Mr.. Wilson and the people Of the
United States will have nobody but Presi-
dent Wilson to blame. After having re-
ceived such warning from the people
at the polls it is surprising that he should
have persisted in such high handed pro-
gram. In his frenzy for power he cer-
tainly forgot the constitution. AS Elk
Judge Felix T. Hughes says:
Treaties under our Constitution
can only be made by the President,
by and with the advice and consent
of the Senate and this advice and
consent is so important that it takes
a two thirds vote of the. Senate be-
fore it becomes effective. M
did the Senate advise Mr.. Wilson
to make the treaty or league in con-
troversy? No, on the contrary he
conceived the thought out of his own
personal mind. He left his country,
in sense, without the knowledge of
the Senate, thing without pre-
cedent, and at time when it was
most important for him to stay in
this country.
when reminded of this important
duty, his only answer was, that now
when telegraphy and wireless were
so quick and great, he could handle
Congress as well in Paris as in Wash
ington. That was when a friendly
Congress was in session. But when
March came, and different Con-
gress was to convene, he said he
would not convene it because he
would be away ON his important mis-
sion and Congress- could not run with
out his presence in Washington.
"Was he, in all this, seeking the
advice tfhe Senate as to this league
or consulting his own personal inter-
est in determining the interest of
more than hundred millions of
people?"
What pity that our President was S,
short sighted? Here he had chance t,
make name for himself and his country
but lack of vision directed him in tn
narrow, partisan, un-American way.

SEEKS AID FOR BLINDED
SOLDIERS AND SAILORS
Rev. DR.. McKim Announces
Change in Relief Fund Plans
and Urges Contributions.

An appeal to the residents of Wash
ington to make contributions, large
and small, to the permanent blind re-
lief war fund, which is used to aid
the soldiers and sailors of the United
States and the allies, who have lost
their sight during the war, is con-
tanned in letter to the public by
Rev. DR.. Randolph H. McKim. chair
man of the Washington committee
DR.. McKim announced in his letter
that it has been decided by the eX-
ecutive committee in Washington to
surrender to the general society in
New York the work which the Wash
ington branch has been aiding it to
carry on for the last two and half
years, and to transfer accounts to the
New York society.
Before doing so, it has been decid-
ed" said DR.. McKim. ITO send out this
appeal for contributions. large and
small, amounts to be sent to c. ].
Bell. treasurer, American Security
and Trust Company, before the end
of this month, that we may close May
with as substantial sum as though
we had given an entertainment"
DR.. McKim said that the committee
was grateful for the assistance which
had made it possible to forward from
Washington for the aid of the blinded
heroes of the war $4,000 during the
period it has had charge of the work
here.
Work Must Continue.
"The work for the American blind
ed soldiers was taken over by the
War Department a year ago." he con-
tinued. land this fund pledged $780,
900 annually for their use. The first
payment was made May I, 1918. We
cannot abandon the splendid work
being done overseas, begun before we
entered the war. The financial Sec
retary of the New York Office says:
The needs are very great and must
continue for several years, since there
are a very large number of blinded
men still to be re-educated.
DIR. Mckim said that it was crafty
