TRANSyLVAN|AN PEOPLE HONOR
VISIT OF RUMAN|AN KING AND QUEEN

Hermannstadt. TRANSATLANTIC, July
31.-iEthnographic parades in which
the people were dressed in clothing
of thousand varieties, were some
of the picturesque features of the
recent visit of King Ferdinand and
Queen Marie to Transylvania, for
merly part of Hungary but lately con-
1uered by Rumanian troops.
-Four million Rumanians of Trans
ylvania had looked forward for years
for this time to come when the
country in which they lived would
again be reunited to Rumania and
they saw in the coming of the King
and Queen evidence that this was ac-
complished.
In quaintness, originality and col
or the parades held in many cities
and towns for the benefit OF the king
and queen could hardly be exceeded
The clothing worn by the peasants
had changed but little with the
passing centuries. Some looked as
though they had stepped out OF the
Bible. They wore sackcloth, home
spun. leather, wooden shoes. and
lose shirt with flowing sleeves worn

EACH PARTY MUST HONESTLY
DESIRE To ADHERE TO THE
LEAGUE PRINCIPALS
DEMOCRACY COUNTING OF NOSES
Courage Needed Whether We Stand
Still and Face Waiting World, or
Go Forward

Washington, July 31-'fPatriotism
of men who hold differing views on
the wisdom OF ratifying the peace
treaty including the league of ma
tions covenant is not to be challeng-
ed. so long as they think above the
plane of partisanship," Secretary
Lane said tonight before a mass
meeting of government employees. at
is not an easy question to answer"
Mr.. Lane said, adding that 1t was
zone to which we wish an American
answer"
And it takes courage" he declar-
ed. whether we stand still and risk
the scorn of waiting. eager world.
or break through our inertia and
take the step that leads to multi
tude of new relationships and pos
SlDie oollgatlOns.
The view Of the ordinary citizen,
the secretary thought. was that rs
many obstacles as possible should be
put in the way of nations desiring
TO make war ';but to be left as free
as possible to follow our own designs,
knowing that these do not endanger
the peace of the world"
'TWe will not hazard our national
life or the right of our people to
determine their own institutions and
destiny" he said. But with these
safeguarded we will go far for the
sake of the world.
Democracy after all is but 4
counting of noses, and we may pre-
sumo much for policy which the
chosen leaders of the two hundred
and fifty million of the most civiliz-
ed of the worlds people have en-
dorsed."
Mr. Lane said he believed every
one would have preferred that the
league should have been born in a
different way, at a different time"
When Theodore Roosevelt returned
from his trip to Africa, he added, the
former president made the strongest
appeal of any national leader had
then voiced 'for such a league.''
Then was the day for its crea-
tion," Secretary lane continued.
"But the world did not see the dan
ger IL was in"
Such men as President Taft and
Mr.. Root committed themselves to
the project then, Mr.. Lane said. but
"the stern figure of the kaiser back
ed by his standing army of 1000, 900
men" stood in their path. William
Jennings Bryan. as secretary of state
had moved in the same direction
with his negotiation of arbitration
treaty, Mr.. Lane continued, adding:
'Tlet us be frank. We of America
did not take these efforts of Mr..
Bryan with any degree OF serious
ness. We thought him noble-mind-
ed visionary. Yet his plan is incor-
porated as the first step of the pyr-
amid of the present proposed
league"
It was not until the war came that
any but tentative steps could be
taken toward the formation of
peace league. Mr.. Lane said, and II
the president had not made the eff
fort to secure 1t, 1--WE would have
said he was a gutter"
Secretary Lane said he had been
unable to find in the covenant any
surrender OF American rights more
than every existing rule Of interna-
tional law involved. 1t was, he said.
essentially a gentlemen's agree
ment." based on the assumption that
each party to 1t honestly desired to
adhere TO the principle for which the
league stands.
