PREJUDICE HAS
BEEN INJECTED
SENATOR McCUMBER SCORES
COLLEAGUES FOR TREATY OP
POSITION.

| Washington, Oct. S.Denying that
G. eat Britain wI2uld have six votes
in the League of Nations to one for
the United ST. es Senator McCumber,
Republican Of North Dakota, charged
in the Senate that Senators advocating
the amendment by Senator Johnson
republican of California, proposing 10
Limit the voting power of the colo
MES of Britain were fannining popu-
lar prejudices with an unfounded APP
peal.
Senators who in private CONVEX
! sation would never dream of attempt
| ing to deceive one another, said Sen
ator McCumber, seem unable to re-
sist the temptation to take advantage
of a prejudice created by this decep-
| ticn and, with studied avoidance of
Ehe real and full truth, give this PIE
judice another boost"
AS substitute for the Johnson
amendment, Senator McCumber urged
his proposed reservation to exclade
British colonies from participating in
1.-The League in disputes involving the
mother country or each other.
Deceivins the Public
almost every argument made on
the floor of the Senate" said Sena-
stor McCumber, land evry one without
exception made 10 the public by sen
ators opposed to any League of Ma
tons, has given the impression to the
people of the wolrd that the council
NO the assembly, as the case may be,
r. a sort of court of tribunal that de-
cided the disputes between nations
and il is because Of these mistate-
ments of the facts and the mis- appre-
hensiOn of many of our peole arising
therefrom, that the ground is made
fertile for the development of about
all the animosities towards this
League, especially towards the claim
ed voting power of Great Britain.
81 wish the public could just once
fully understand, first that not one
case of dispute out of hundred would
ever go to ehe council or assembly;
second that even if all other efforts
provided for the settlement of disputes
should fail, the only thing submitsted
to the council or assembly is the
right to investigate and report Of the
facts ITO the public
Senator McCumber said the a!gu,
ment of Senator Johnson and other
supporters of the Johnson amendment
as to Britian's voting power was too
absurd Ito be true" and asked why
France, Italy and other nations did
not rails objections to putting their
heads i'm the lions mouth.

The great war profits piled up In

have reached the point of saturation.
The foreign field is as yet too unset

the big fellows are looking around for
new opportunities. One of them
proves to be the busting of indepen-

is emphasized by the formation or the

consists in operation of farm produc-

The United Grain Growers of Can
ada, cooperative organization,
which has had great success, was
recently investigated on charges OF
profiteering brought by the big prof.
teers as cover for their own opera
tions. The government committee
had to give the farmers a clean bill
of health. One of the charges setting
forth that the profits of the farmers
organization were distributed accord
ing to stock owned rather than accord
ing to patronage, had a particularly
strong back fire. The farmers were
able to prove that they had tried dis
tribution according to patronage and
had been expelled from the Winnipeg
Grain Exchange for so doing. The IN
vestigation proved that the ORGANIZED
farmers had greatly lowered the cos'
of handling grain.

HENDERSON HAS A MES
SAGE.

Henderson, the able British
labor leader" says Arthur Bris-
bane in the Chicago Herald-Ex-
aminer," is coming to this country.
. American workers, if willing, may
learn much from him. He knows
how to make a labor party pow
erful and how to make the gov
eminent respect it.
"In England the government
asks what labor thinks and wants
. before making final plans. In this
country labor is getting better
pay, but in political influence it
is joke.
"Never mind the labor men,
any experienced politician will
tell you, 'humor them along;
don't take them too seriously. On
election day they will split up be-
tween the two old parties and
vote the same old way anyhow
"That is exactly the truth. For
the health of the country there
ought to be two great parties, one
representing labor, the other
business, with the great indetin-
lite crowd between, acting as UNI
pire.
"a new party would be better
for business; which needs a checS
rein, and better for labor, which
would train itself to think in poll
tics instead of indulging in peri
e odical fits of rage or working de-
= structive strikes.
"The absence of labor party
seems to increase the importance
= of labor leaders who take the
. place of a party and pretend tc
deliver the labor vote, although
s they cannot do it. That is why
q American labor leaders are
against any distinct labor party IL

YOUNG LADIES OF
OUTLOOK ORGANIZE

Twenty-one of the young ladies of
Outlook have organized into q troon
of Girl Scouts. Fifteen Of these have
already passed their tenderfoot test
and are registered at National Head
quarters in New York City as Third
Glass Scouts.
The organization stands for high
ideals among themselves in the home
and in the community in the educa-
tional, social and religious life.
During the past ten days they
have enjoyed some real scouting at
Clear Lake, Canada, camping. The
camp was made up of three Privates'
tents, one officers tent and a cook
tent. A full schedule appeared for
every day, consisting of hiking,
swimming, beating, drilling, lnstruc-
tons in scouting, lecture hours, etc.
On last Thursday evening Scout
| program was put on in the bowery
on the lake front. A number of
H. Outlook LIS took the oJpoc:u-
nifty and laNoi ed out to vi5iS the
camp. Sunday they appeared on the
scene of action again, tipping off "a
good Sunday dinner to the Girls
which tasted mighty fine for a

Bismarck, NJ. D.-Robert B.

more brings to his new office
many years of successful expert
ence In the building, real estate
and loan business, which will be
valuable in working out the new
plans for making farm and town
homes available to the people at
low cost.
The law which he is to carry
out, passed by the farmer legisla-
tors in the last session, provides
for advancing loans at cost for
home building in the towns and
farm building in the country up
to &C per cent of the value of the
property. The leans will be paid
back over long series of years
and therefore on easy terms to
the poor and honest citizen. The
association also has the power to
acquire land through eminent do
main, to buy supplies needed and
to build the structures. Because
of the economy possible in large
scale operations the association
will probably do a very large part
of the building.
Aid to immigration.
The law is designed not only to Alt
the present citizens Of North Dakot;
toward property owning and prosper
ity, but to encourage immigration
from other states, that the undeve

nearly as possible in the same position
AS they would be in civil life with re-
