FOR LEAGUE
PASSING, SAYS SENATOR
Mr.. johnson Declares in Baltimore
That knowledge of Terms
Brings Disfavor.

by tne Associated freSs
BALTIMORE. Md, August 29.-Sen-
ator Hiram w. Johnson, republican,
of California. in an address here last
night in opposition to the league Of
nations declared that sentiment for
the league of nations covenant was
passing as more information on the
terms and provisions of the league
was known. He assailed the secret
treaties of England. France, Italy and
Japan and the Shantung provision of
the peace treaty and concluded by
urging adherence to the american
way" in foreign policy.
THE pitiless logic of events is
gradually dispelling the halo with
which its advocates have enveloped
the so-called league of nations" Sem
ator Johnson declared. Continuing,
he said:
1.-The unbridled and irrational emo
tionalism which greeted the sugges-
tion of "a league before the terms
were known and the provisions un-
derstood is with the lapse of time
gradually passing.
Calls League Integral Part"
"The President went to Paris to
make = treaty of peace in accordance
with the contracts secretly sealed
and delivered among England, France
Italy and Japan. We talked of what
the treaty should contain. but the
treaty when written contained what
the other nations wanted and fol-
lowed their secret bargains.
IAN integral part of the treaty is
the league of nations. What the treaty
does the league guarantees. The du-
plicity practiced by the four great pow
ers upon the United States is now by
the league of nations fastened forever
upon the world.
Il am not quarreling that our allies
make Germany pay the full price. l do
quarrel with requiring our treasure and
our blood for all time in the future to
preserve the spoils of war to England
France. Italy and Japan under secret
bargains.
Scores Shantung Provision.
THE stain upon our national honor,
which we never could efface, would be
tung decision of the peace conference
based upon the wicked betrayal of
China, our friend and ally in the war
rAmerica has never failed in any
world crisis. Ever alert has the re-
public been to the cry of distress and
civilization's appeal. We alone must
determine when and how we come to
the rescue of any people or any country.
To submit us to an assembly wherein
one of the powers has six. votes and we
have but one is challenge to our self
respect and our patriotism. There is
but one course for us to pursue, and
that is the way that has been ours from
the birth of our country to the present
the American way"

PACT'SFATE HERE
AWAITED IN PARIS
Sees Opposition There
Strengthened if 1t Is Re-
jected by U. S. Senate.
BY HENRY J. SMITH.
BY Cable to The Star and Chicago
Daily News. Copyright, 1919.


PARIS, August 20 (delayed).-With
one eye on Washington and the other
on the approaching election here the
chamber of deputies is considering the
Versailles treaty.
Many Faults Are Seen.
The first day of the debate Tuesday
was signalized by the publication of
the report of the commission ap-
pointed by the chamber to examine
the treaty. This report, prepared by
Louis Barthou. analyzes and criticises
the Versailles document in a mastery
manner Among the criticisms are
these:
That the allied negotiators should
have treated with the separate states
of Germany and not with the empire
as a whole.
that separate ideas are badly assem-
bled.
That it provides for a plebiscite in
Upper Silesia. although there are
twice as many Poles as Germans
there.
That the Rhine should have been Ger
many's western front.
That the financial repara ton promised
France was inadequate and indefinite.
Hopes Japan Will Act.
Concerning the Shantung settlement
the report remarks that it is to be
hoped and desired that the wisdom of
japan will renounce the arrangement as
out Of harmony with equity.
The report refers to the territorial
results as glorious sand declares that
France contemplates the military re-
suits with satisfaction.
1t mentions the league of nations as
the promise of a new era and as ex-
pressing President Wilson's hope for
permanent peace.
AS summarized by LIE Temps, the re-
port proposes the development of an
interallied financial and military solid
arity which will insure equitable repara-
ton and military guarantees.
What will the American Senate do?
| This is a more continual subject of
| speculation than what the French
chamber will do. The best opinion is
that the opposition party here will find
itself immensely strengthened should
the American Senate reject the treaty.

T0DAY's AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspic-
uous thing about us and is proba-
bly, the most easily damaged by
bad or careless treatment. II we
are very careful in hair washing,
we will have virtually no hair troubles.
An especially fine shampoo for this
weather, one that brings out all the
natural beauty Of the hair; that dis
solves and entirely removes all dan
druff. excess oil and dirt; can easily
be- used at trifling expense by simply
dissolving a teaspoonful Of canthrox
(which you can get at any druggist 's)
In a cup OF hot water. This makes
a full cup Of shapoo liquid-enough
40 it ia easy to apply it to all the hair
instead OF just the top Of the head.
This chemically dissolve all impurities
and creates q soothing, cooling lather.
Rinsing leaves the scalp apotlenlly
clean, soft ard plant, while the hair
take1 on the glos1y richncI1 Of natural
color, also a fluffineas which makes il
seem much heavier than it in. After
canthrox shampoo, arranging the. hair
is q pleasure.-Adp.

Bishop Greer's friends and associates
that he did as much charitable work
personally as through his organizations.
He possessed q remarkably keen eye
and was such an adept at judging hu-
man nature that he prided himself upon
being able to tell the worthy from the
unworthy cases without investigation
He admitted that many times he had
been deceived. but calculated the good
of his spontaneous giving as outweigh
ing the loss. II Is said that during one
period of hard times In the city he
gave away his entire salary of $4,000,
remarl1ing that he had enough left from
the year before for his own needs.
From time to time Bishop Greer was
the object Of severe attacks from the
clergy of his own faith who disagreed
with his liberal policies in matters of
church conduct. From time to time the
high church wing Of the clergy VEN
tured 10 criticise him in print, but these
attacks were seldom answered by the
Bishop himself. The last of these was
made this year when one Of the high
churchmen objected In no uncertain
terms to the project of Bishop Greer
to invite preachers OF other denemina-
lions to I'LL the pulpit in the Cathedral
Of St John the Divine during Lent and
Holy Week.
Whenever these attacks were made.
however. the Bishop was warmly de-
Tended by other members of the clergy.
When he was nominated for the bishop
rio there was much objection on the
ground that the diocesan authorities had
not the power to choose q coadjutor
without the consent of the General AS
sembly. The advocates of the choice of
DR.. Greer sustained their contention that
the election was necessitated by the III
health of the then Bishop Potter and
