Washington, Aug. 2O.-PershIng in

expressed the opinion that bodies OF
American soldiers who died in Franco
be left in the places where they are

II believe that could the soldiers
speak for themselves they would wish
to be left undisturbed where they
fought the last fight. Those who rest
in England gave their lives in the
same cause and their remains repre-
sent the same salvation as those who
died on the battle fields. The graves

TAKE HOT SHOT AT WILSON.
Borah and Johnston Reply to Leagus
of Nations Defense.

washington. Aug. 20.-A joint state
ment of Senator Borah. of Idaho, and
Senator Johnston, OF California, mem
bers Of the foreign relations commit
tee, was issued yesterday afternoon
sharply defining President Wilson'S
attitude on some Of the most import
ant provisions in the peace treaty.
The statement not only represents
the conclusions of the two senators
with respect to the presidents inter-
probation of disputed questions about
the treaty. but 1t lays down the pro-
gram of attack which the extreme
opponents Of the league Of nations
and the treaty will follow henccfortn
in the senate. ....
+ Following is the joint statement
'In our opinion the significant facts
developed by the Interview with the
president today are these: 4.
.1-There yet remain treaties or
peace to be made with Austria, Hun
gary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman En-
plre. These treaties deal with subjects
as important, territory as extensive
and matters as intimately affecting
the United States as the treaty with
Germany The obligations Of the UniI
try assumes in the future. can not be
determined until these treaties are
completed and presented to the United
State senate.
Discuss "Moral Obligations"
"2-That the president regards the
obligations which will be assumed un-
der the league OF nations, and paficu-
larry under. Articles X. and XII. as NOR.
al obligations. These. however, are OF
compelling force and would require
action upon our part. For instance,
the president comedies that in an >un-
doubted case Of aggression from tho
Balkans upon the newly acquired ter
ritory of italy, It would be our duty to
come to- the assistance - Italy and
prevent such aggression. The presi-
dents construction of Article y. !s az
variance with the construction by the
democratic lawyers in the senate.
"3. A moral obligation, the Presi-
dent insists, rests upon us to carry out
the terms OF the various treaties of
peace. This moral obligation, the
president states requires us under the
German treaty for fifteen years to
maintain American troops in Europe.
a. The president did not know. nor
had he heard OF the secret treaties for
territorial acquisition and partitions
Ing various territories until he reached
Paris. Specifically he had not heard
OF and did not know, until he went to
Paris:
