GEN. DAWES FOR LEAGUE
OF NATIONS.

Charles G. Dawes. controller O
the currency under President Me
Kinley, and recently brigadicl
general under Pershing, who re
turned to the United States a
month ago, after two years ser
vice in France, has issued state
ment urging the adoption of the
League of Nations.
The quick and decisive results
obtained by the allies after the
unification Of the military com
mand and the pooling of their
material resources, Mr.. Dawes
says, represented the value OF
combination in the task of win
ming the war. This was sort
of League Of Nations without
which the conflict could not have
been ended as it was. The same
Joint action of the nations, Mr..
Dawes believes, will be effectual
in preventing war
The military board which gov
erned the supplies of the allied
armies was in effect a League OF
Nations, Mr.. Dawes says.
GAS in the case Of the League
of Nations, it could do nothing
vital without unanimous consent,
and as with the League of Ma
tions, the bitter opponents of its
creation predicted that it would
not be effective or useful, " Mr..
Dawes says.
"What hapepned in creating
this board is exactly what is hap
pening in the effort to Great the
League of Nations, he con-
tinues.
"The proposition for the ces-
sion Of the independent sovereign
ties of thcarmies and the govern
ments, fol flied though it was by
a tremendous military necessity,
was rejected as has been the case
with the League Of Nations.
"But because Of the necessity
for finding some remedy for the
deplorable lack of coordination
of inter-army action on the rear,
without interfering from first to
last with the independent SOW
erei2n power of each army over
its rear, the board was establish
ed to control them which, like the
League of Nations, could do moth
ing effective without unanimous
"Thus the effort made to more
safeguard the future
peace Of the world, by having a
cession Of the Independent sover-
eign power Of each ntaion made
to the council Of the League of
Nations, failed in the peace con-
ference.
But realizing their duty to hui
manity in the general cause of
peace, the members of the peace
conference, having protected the
Independent sovereign rights of
the nations by the unanimous
consent clause proposed a plan in
the League Of Nations by which,
as in our military board of allied
supply, opportunities for common
information and common consid-
Grafton would enable separate
sovereigns to work together of
their own free will in a practical
and continuous way for the bet
terment of the world. #svxE1
"In the opposition to the, peace
treaty and the League of Nations
in this country | hear too little
Of alternatives to their
adoption; but the longer the dis
cussion continues the surer will
alternatives come to be consid-
cred. When alternatives are thus
considered l have faith that the
honest judgment of the American
people viii be forced to the same

IF you are shipper, get acquainted
with the facts about truck trans
portation to and from this city.
Ship byTruck in your own business
speeds up deliveries and puts your
haulage on a more economical and
efficient basis.
Motor express companies are start
ing up under careful management
and developing rapidly. They are
carrying products over steadily
widening area. Merchants here
find that this service means direct
shipment to the consignee. There
are fewer rehandlings of their goods,
which means time saved and less
breakage.
The Morning Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Okla.) 1919-1927, 1919-11-23

Think what this means to your own
haulage problem. Follow the eX-
ample of other shippers here in the
city. Make one or two trial ship
ments and learn for yourself the
time you can save. The trucks are
loaded at your shipping platform
and proceed directly to the recelv-
ing platform of the conslgnee. Call
up one or two of these truck trans
port companies and ask them about
rates and schedules.
Whether it is an occasional package
delivery or a heavy daily bulk OF
shipping, find out today If trucks
can carry it and whether or not they
can carry it faster, more conven-
iently and more surely.
The Morning Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Okla.) 1919-1927, 1919-11-23

You merchants and manufacturers,
looking for ways to expand, will find
the answer in Ship by Truck. 1t
will help the city to serve more effl-
GENTLY this territory of which it is
the center; it will stimulate trade
and foster city growth, The farm
ers are using these truck lines now
to bring their products to the mar
ket. Hundreds of industries and
individual shippers have availed
themselves of Ship by Truck and
have revoIutionized their transport
tation methods. If you have adopted
Ship by Truck already, investigate
how you can make it serve you still
more effectively

HOW I'VE" WON THE WAR.

ATER Governor Allen of Kansas had con- A cluded his testimony as to the failure of the A war department to properly support the SOL diers fighting in the Argonne with airplanes, artillery and horses Senator Kirby of Arkansas asked: What is the purpose of these disclos- ures? We won the war, didn't we?"
 There are going to be more disclosures of ineffciency and waste in connection with the war department and presumable Senator Kirby has asked a question which ought to be an swered: What is the purpose of these disclos- ures? We won the war, didn't wei"
 No, We didn't. THEY did. We, the politi- clans at Washington didn't. They, the soldiers who fought in France, and those who, standing ready to fight, filled the enemy's heart with fear, they did And this constitutes the point to the whole business
 Did THEY win with unnecessary loss of life? While THEY were making sacrifices in their country's cause, were the politicians at Washington wasting the substance of the people through carelessness and incompetency and party and personal profteering?
 The politicians at Washington have been do- ing entirely too much talking about what WE did. No one is asking any inquiry into the courage or devotion of the American soldier And that soldier does not feel any sense of par tisanship with the laundering or wasteful civil officer who, through sins of omission and com mission, failed to give them the proper support by way of equipment for battle.
 What THEY did is we'll known. There isn't a real American who is not proud of 1t. What WE did, we politicians at Washington and throughout the country, that is another matter. It is going to be investigated. And WE politi- clans may as well cease trying to hide behind what THEY did. For soldiers and not civilians won the war. Swords, not fountain pens, guns, not typewriters, poison gas not oratorica gas these things won the war.

The Hunt administration was always ex

The Hunt administration was always ex- tremely forehanded when it came to spending state money. State Engineer Holmquist has dis covered that the late state engineer has pur chased thousands of dollars worth of corrugated iron pipe which cannot be used this year, also $2l ,000 of live stock and grading equipment paying $3,000 down, the rest to come from the next administration. This, with few hundred thousand buttons and other supplies bought and stored in different institutions over the state shows exclusively that the administration be- lieved in stocking up well in advance. The state road funds were entirely depleted as were other building funds with buildings partly com- pleted.

design of liberty on it will be longer than the old stamp, but will cost three cents just the same. The old red two-cent stamp was very popular in its day before it was "demonitized" in favor of three-cent postage, but owing to h. c. l. it won't reach out as 1t used to.
 General Jake Coxey, of erstwhile tramp army fame, is preparing to march on Washington with an army of thirst trenchermen" to protest against the coming July drought. If they all join he will have some army.

 Some men are always looking for trouble. Chapman, editor of the Win slow Mail, is worried over the state ment by fashion magazine, which says: "The French gowns which are coming in are to be worse than any we have had yet" and wants his glasses made stronger.

The democrats framed the election and pri- mary laws in such way that they felt they had the game grabbed. Now when the people have found a way to vote as they please, the political profiteers have concluded that there should be a big change in order to muddle the voter and compel him to vote the straight ticket again. The democratic state central committee recently went into the matter thoroughly. The only remedy we could offer would be law something similar to the one claimed for Arkansas years ago: White beans for the democrats and black beans for the republicans. If any black beans were found in the ballot box, the box was dumped and voting commenced all over again.

This is government bv the people, and the people are to blame ultimately if they are misrepresented, just exactly as much as if their worst passions, their worst desires are represented for in the one case it is their su- pineness that is represented exactly as in the other case it is their vice.

Prof. George Heron, who declared in a eulogy of President Wilson written last year that the American Revolution was fought merely to ena- ble Puritan traders to make profits out of the West Indian trade, has been appointed a member of our unofficial diplomatic corps. Well, he's a fit companion piece for the secretary of war who said Washington's soldiers were on a par with Villas bandits.

The Dominion of Canada is collecting half her governmental expense from customs tariffs and is planning to repeal her business profits tax on the ground that business profits are go- ing to shrink and that what is needed now is to foster and not discourage business enterprise, when it is needed to take up the task of unem- ployment.
