"The men who now control the af =

represent nobody but themselves. They
have no kind of mandate. There are
only thirty -four Of them, ] am told
There is a closer monopoly Of power in
Moscow than there ever was in Will
helmstrasse. And a man more cruel
than the czar is controlling the destinies
of that people.

"And if we don't want little groups

Citing conditions in Armenia, Mr.
Wilson said he wondered that men dc
not wake up to the moral responsibility

were debating and debating while
tragic situations waited to be dealt with
as soon as the debating was over.

Agreement by G. o. p. County
Resolutions Committee

Allentown, Pa, Sept. 6.-With
Auditor General Snyder, Lieutenant
Governor Beidleman and Congressman
Ben Focht as the principal speakers,
the Republicans of Lehigh held their
annual county meeting today. The
heavy artillery of the orators was aimed
at the shortcomings of the Wilson ad-
ministraticn and the league of nations.
A demand was made for the adop-
tion Of the budget system to check ex-
travagance and for Investigations into
the wastefulness Of the administration
and even for a probe Of President Will
son himself, as to the disposition of his
personal 100000 900 fund. Sketch
Elverson, formerly of Philadelphia, was
chairman of the meeting. The resolu =
tions committee presented demands for
adoption, including the following:
1--WE call upon the United States
Senate either for the defeat of the
hodge -podge agreement entered into by
the President, called the covenant OF
the league of nations, or the ratifica
tion only after such clear and distinct
reservations and interpretations that
the safety of this republic be in no way
imperiled.

with being chiefly responsible for the
present bugbear of the country-the
high cost of living. To crafty a vain =
glorious ambition he twice rushed to
Europe to make a chimerical peace and
in the end was outwitted by ADLER minds
among the statesmen Of England
France and Japan.
During his absence he neglected the
affairs of his own country. SO that
while the war is over, the cost of living
has jumped by leaps and bounds to nj
oppressive condition that has caused

the paper that the five signed. The
five were enough to reach an under
standing with. They assured control
Of the Senate. if the Democrats could
be all held in line. And they offered
the prospect of attracting other waver-
ing Republicans. The first step in the
union was made when the Democrats in
the foreign relations committee Thurs
day supported all the McCumber reso-
buttons for the perfecting of the treaty.
That was a sign of what was to come
later.
Senator Hitchcock attitude all along
has been that, as leader, he must be
free to make a working arrangement
with the friends of the treaty among
the Republicans, whenever the oppOr-
stuuity arose. He has told the Presi-
dent that it would be necessary to ac-
cent reservations. but that the reser-
yations need be only interpretative in
character, requiring no submission to
the other signatory powers. Presi-
dent Wilson has been for some time
convinced that such reservations were
unavoidable, and he has been indiffer
emf as to how many there were or what
they were, so long as they were reason
able and were not in effect amend
ments.
There is reason to suppose that the
McCumber amendments will be accept
able to President Wilson. Senator
Hitchcock and Senator McCumbNr had
a conference in the morning. 1t fol-
lowed Hitchcock's support of McCumber
the day before. 1t was followed. in
turn, by the introduction of the reser-
yations. Because they hold the bal
ance of power, the mild Republicans
will take the leadership in interpreting
the treaty, and the Democrats, though
more numerous, will follow.

Sees Philippine Solution
Abiding to the American promise to
set the Philippine Islands free, Mr.
Wilson said, the league would solve the
very perplexing" problem Of how they
were to be kept free after their inde- =
pendence had been granted. Mr.. Will
son said he. could imagine the shades

II tell you," he added, "the war was
won by the American spirit. And
America in this treaty has realized what
those gallant boys fought for. The men
who make this impossible or difficult
will have lifelong reckoning with the
men who won the war"
The President asked the audience not
to think he had come out to fight or
antagonize" anybody. F"

said, "for the Senate Of the United

SHANTUNG IN ALLEG0RY

Washington. Sept. 6.-Prefacing a
prepared address on the league of ma =
tions, Senator Norris. Republican, OF
Nebraska. declared in the Senate to-
day that President Wilson's statement
IN his st. Louis speech to the effect
that Great Britain and the other Allies
had promised Japan Germany's rights
in China in order to get Japan in the
war. was Erroneous
"The President represented our gov
ernment at the Peace Conference" said
Senator Norris, land he knows what
was presented there, and what the
facts are. 1t is a matter of history
that Great Britain and the other Allies
did not make that secret agreement with
Japan until 1917. At the time that
agreement was made. all of Germany's
possessions in China had been cap
tured and there was not German ship
on the Pacific, so the President has
not got his history on straight. I chal-
1enge the President to produce evidence
TO substantiate what he said in St
Louis"
Mr.. Norris declared the President
would not tell the facts regarding the
disposition of Shantung because it
would cast some reflection upon the
Peace Conference
Supporters of the administration. he
said, dare not because it would incur
the displeasure of their great leader.
So the senator announced he himself
would relate the story of ''thc troubled
community"
Story Of Shantung in Allegory

"Once upon a time" Senator Norris
told the story of Shantung. Through e
out his speech, which never was changed
from it's allegorical style. nations were
referred to as individuals. Germany be-

low who trained himself in the use Of
firearms with the idea of despoiling his
neighbors. the senator said, forcibly
took the "Shantung farm from John
Chinaman, and how. later. when the
other members of the community were
engaged in Furnishing Bill Kaiser, Mr.
Jap, taking advantage of Bill Kaiser's

"Willtul Group" in 1917;
Selfish Group in 1919

President Wilson today is fighting
"little group of selfish men" as he
fought little group of willful men"
in 1917.
"Willful Group" in 1917
On March 4, 1917, he said in
statement to the country, robuking
the twelve senator's who killed the
armed ship bill by a filibuster:
"a little group of willful men,
representing no opinion but their
own. have rendered the great gov
ernment of the United States help
less and contemplate"
Selfish Group In 1919
Today in an address at Kansas
City the President said:
"If we don't want little groups of
selfish men to plot the future of Eu-
rope, then we must see to it that lit
tie groups of selfish men do not plot
