NOT A sUPERGovERNMENT

'T do not regard the organization of the league as a supergovernmeat No supergovernment could exist with out power 10 maintain itself within itself; the league has no power to levy taxes, and without revenue gov ernment cannot long exist. The league has no power to raise armies and navles without military forces. It can not defend itself With the right to withdraw. I feel that there is no need to fear the dangerous surrender Of any of the fundamental principles and rights of the American people, There fore, I am willing to take it, and try ii, and hope that from the seed that Is planted today in it's fruition the final peass rE rNe world may be found prs- served
 ''I am more interested in the prth- cipies enuncnted in the clauses re- ferring to the league of nations than T am in the power given for its gov ernment for on those principles the future life of the league must depend. I would have been glad to subscribe to contract that would have arbi- trarily limited the armaments of the world Such decree is not found within the contract, but there is a covenant that seeks to keep the peace of the world, that authorizes the ex- ecutive council of the league to con slider how much the present armamen;s of nations should be reduced
 "Another vital principle that we are asked to agree to is that all of the members of the league shall sub- init differences between them that are not capable of being settled by neSo- tiations before tribunal to be com : posed of judges or arbitrators agreed to by them. and after entering into the arbitration they are required 10 abide by the award
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-07-16
GREATEST PRINCIPLE


 But the greatest principle of the league tending to keep the peace of the world is that which declares that The high contracting parties to this treaty shall undertake to respect and preserve against external aggression the political independence and the ter ritorial integrity of every member of the league Most of the wars that have been waged in the ages that have passed have had as their governing cause the desire to conquer and con- trol another people. or to expand the territory of the country that Is the az gressor in the war. Prevent the in- centive for war growing out of self ish desire for aggression, as the over weening force of this covenant will do, and few actual causes of war will remain that cannot without difficulty or danger be submitted to the high court of arbitration.
 You say Then, why should we be- come involved in an alliance that may drag us into the disputes, the disas- ters r nd the dangers of other na- tions?
 This was the doctrine our fathers believed in. and one that I am slow to yield But we face condition, not a theory. Time and space have been eliminated. Dangers co our people and our republic that were not dreamed of century ago in isolation confront us today at our very doors; a threatening menace to our lives. our civilization. and our institutions. Shall we con- tinue to dream of the ideals of the past or meet as practical men the dangers of the future? For me, there is but one course to pursue
 MIR. UNDERWOOD'S SPEECH
 Following is the full text of Senator Underwood's speach
 Mir. President-The war has sapped the foundation of society It came very near to destroying all hope for lasting peace for this generation of men. In a wolrd broken away from the fundamental principles of right and justice for the protection of humanity. where no court of common arbitration exists. where the selfish passions and desires of men are the ruling cause that shapes their coures. where no ideals of equity and fair play are established as a guide to human conducct, the sword--the sword alone-must and will shape the destiny of suffering human ity
 We must continue to make the sword the sole arbiter of justice and right, or has the time arrived in the progress of the worlds civilization when the sword shall become merely the instru- ment by which the decrees of nations iouHueu on estdpiisnei prlnclpies, snail be enforced? An ever-increasing sense of public justice. sustained by the ever strengthening power of freedom of thought and action among the masses of men. is crystaNzing into a universal sentiment in civilized nations for the recognition of court of final judg- ment to guide the future destiny of the world. rather than leave the decision to the blood stained decree coming from the battlefield.

This is Virginia, in her overalls and

horne now, out in the country. But
there was a time when she knew what
II was to be without a home.
She was taken, homeless waif, to
the Kentucky Children's Home Society
In Louisville. There she was given
medical care and brought to health,
and given the best of care that the
attendants at the home could give her
until real home with a family was
found for her.
Now Virginia is one of the many
little school girls of the state who is
going to help build home for the
homeless. When Virginia was in the
Children's Home she had to spend
most of her time In q little room
crowded with other waits. There was
no big, sunny playground, and the
schOOlroom was crowded and poorly
lighted and ventilated. There was not

Losses to the winter wheat crop
from Hesslan fly have been rather
wide spread. Losses are reported in
the Shenandoah and Cumberland val
leys. Straw-fallen wheat due to this
cause was commonly observed in these
regions where the percentage Of In

materially increased this year. Re-
ports received from the western half
of the Mississippi basin also indicate
increased abundance of the pest.
No Remedy for Pest.
Growers of winter wheat should put
