According TO the President, our DO
nestle economy is tied up In the peace
treaty with Europe which he brought
back. If that Is 80, the whole treaty
should be rejected at once and economic
independence of the nation reasserted.
This covenant OF the League of Ma
lions Is not a treaty; II Is a constitution
OF government. 1t does not establish n
condition TO be dealt with by the inde-
pendent action of tho parties to the ar
rangement. as In the case Of a treaty.
1t sets up an deliberately organized gov
eminent. outside OF, separate and apart
from the Government of the United
States. II invests this organization with
vast governmental powers. II contains
no bills OF rights. 1t makes no reserya-
ton OF powers not specifically granted.
It undertakes to transfer to a permanent
government In Europe powers which our
people have vested in the President, In
Congress and under their control.
"No such new constitution of govern
ment, even If Its powers were vested in
our own nation, could be established
without submission to the people or 10
the States. The imperious and auto
cratic demand OF the President that It
must be adopted in the exact form in
which he has proposed II IL 90 great a
departure from our conception OF free
dom that we cannot consider It."

1t is an absolute boycott OF the ma
ton that disregards the covenant.
The boycott Is automatic. and just
soon as 1t applies this happens: No
goods can be shipped out OF that
country and no goods can be shipped
into 1t: no telegraphic messages may
pass either way across its borders;
no packages Of postal matter and no
letters can cross Its borders either
way; no citizen of any member OF
the league can conduct any transact
ton of any kind with any citizen OF
that nation.
1t is the most complete isolation
boycott ever conceived, and there is
not a nation in Europe that can live
six months without importing goods
out Of other countries, and after they
have talked about the matter for six

appearance excited less interest than has
been anywhere stirred since the tour

the lack lustre character OF the recep-
lion was dismal indeed. Here In the home

troubled to interrupt the current OF

London, oct. 15 49, Fully fifteen
hundred local committees throughout
the United Kingdom are now at work

lies demand to bring prices down to
a tolerable average.
Convictions already obtained under
the law have caused offending trades

ing are out of all proportion there
has been a tendency among shop
keepers the last few weeks to knock
fifteen dollars or more from overcoats

have been stuck" with large stocks
which they now are offering at prices
fifteen to twenty dollars lower than

nne present profiteering act does
not apply to restaurant prices, which
