It is reported at Washington that Judge Taft has
written letter to Republican National Chairman Hays
in which he proposes reservations the ratification of
the League of Nations section of the peace treaty If
this is true it lines the earliest earnest
American supporter of the League Nations plan with
Former Senator Root and it makes 1t practically certain
that way will be found the ratification of the
treaty and still leave workable proposition Accord
ing to the first reports Judge Tafs letter
a specific statement regarding the Monroe doctrine
reduction in the size of the the British empire
and revision of the phraseoogy of Article Ten to make
Its meaning clearer and thus of the OBJ
jectons to it. 1t is this latter point that the Taft
position is most important, for Senator Root who first
undertook to lead the treaty opponents
fortunate snarl they in, said Article Ten would
have to come out Ratification upon such terms as
Judge Taft suggests would be happy solution.
1t would make 1t possible for the world embark upon
this tremendous experiment with the support
of the American people and 1t would make impossible
to make political issue of it. for the simple reason that
it would be accomplishment for which Republican
and Democratic parties could claim equal credit Every
one in the country with the possible exception of SEN
Borah and Sherman ought rejoice over such an
outcome

That true. but to be hoped that the authorizes at

from scratch the minute the Legislature does provide the
necessary funds.
Efforts along that line should be begun without delay 1t
would be useless, for instance, defer work on the plans

special session of the egislas which would provide
funds with which the reconstruction could be carried out

constitution makes legislation carrying appropriations

WESTERN INSURANCE
 PRESIDENT |S HERE

J. 0. Carter, president of the Inter | Mountain Life Insurance company, ac- companied by Mrs. Carter. is making his annual visit to Arizona in the interest of his company.
 He states that he is very pleased with the splendid showing made by Price & Price company, the state agents for Arizona, who produced more than 1,500,0 900 insurance in 1918.
 He also stated that hi scompany's death rate in Arizona on account of influenza was very light. In this val ley, where the company has over two million insurance in force. they only had one $2,000 claim to pay on account of that disease, and although this was considerable higher in the northern states in which they do business the effect was so slight that the company officials, contrary to the policy adopt ed by numerous other companies, will not stop the payment of annual divi- dends to policy holders for the year 1918. The institution has stood the test of the European war and the most severe pestilence that has ever en- veloped the world
 MT. Carter is desirous of leaning considerable money on the real estate here; in fact, he stated that he was going to make a personal investment in the real estate of this valley and is very enthusiastic over the wonderful growth made since his last visit. . Tuesday the agency force. with their wives, were banqueted at the San Marcos hotel at Chandler.
 Later in the afternoon 8 meeting was held in the music room of the San Marcos at which MT. Carter received pledges from the agents for $2,000,000 business in Arizona for 1919.
 At this meeting four of the agents, George F. Price, A. F. Parker, J. R. Price and George w. Waters, Jr, who had produced over s250,000 business in 1918, were elected to the Quarter Mil lion Dollar club of which Geo. F. Price | is president and A. F.

Court Denies Application for Change of Venue of Whit ney Case to Yavapai Co.,, Defendants Home

Change of venue of the sl00,00O libel action instituted by Louis 5. Whitney, assistant attorney general, against the Journal Miner and certain members Of the Northern Arizona bar association, was denied by Judge Stanford yester- day The court in denying to transfer the case to Yavapai county where all the defendants reside also overruled the motion denying his jurisdiction.
 Whether the l. W. w.. will become a leading issue in the case is still to be determined as Judge Stanford did not rule on the motion to make more defi- mite and certain. He stated that he would hand down his decision at an carly date, counsel for the plaintiff par ticularly asking that the case 80 to trial this spring.
 MT. Whitney stated that the defen- dant, Daniel E. Parks. had denied any responsibility and intimated that the action against a number of other Pres colt attorney defendants would be dis missed It is known that only A. H. Favour, E. g. Clark and Le Roy Ander- son have been served, besides J. w. Mines and Percy Mines of the Journal Miner which published the article giv- ing offense and which contained the resolutions adopted by the Northern Arizona bar association.
 Wants to Know of |. w. w.
 II. II. Linney, R. E. Morrison and Howard Cornich were the Prescott lawyers who argued the motions yes terday. Captain Linney made the open ing argument, asking the court to rule for a more specific pleading. He de- clared that according to the complaint al 1 not prepare a denial of the allegations since it was all conclusion of the part of the plaintiff. It would be impossible to join issue, he argued. unless the complaint be made more direct.
 Captain Linney urged that the plain tiff be required to state in what partic- ular he had been damaged and in order 10 point out suggested that Whitney set forth in an amended complaint whether or not as counsel for John Stanfield, who was deported from Je- rome in July, 1917. Whitney counseled or advised the l. w. w. organization or it's members. He asked that Whitney state his connection, if any, with the l. W. ".
 Mir. Cornick and Mir Morrison SUD- plemented the argument made by Cap tain Linney. Mir. Cornick stated that the libel complaint should be a plea of Justification or not guilty" declaring that only the falsity of a charge was the basis for libel Both he and MT. Morrison analysed the resolutions which were incorporated in the offend ing article
 Denies I. w. w. Issue
 Stating that he was not concerned with the motive that prompted counsel to make motion to make the complaint more definite and certain. F. c. Struck meyer, who represents Whitney, de- clared that he had no desire to try the I. ". w.. but would leave that to the United States government. MT. Struck meyer held that the only issues in case were the publication, whether or not the article was libelous. and whether Whitney's reputation and standing had

been damaged He declared that no other issue should be permitted to arise to throw cobwebs of confusion around the jury"
 Counsel for the plaintiff declared that the direct libel in the case was the alleged inference that Whitney had prostituted his profession by acting as counsel for Stanfield.
