though two other federal appoint
ments for Tennessee were made yes
terday, the nomination of J. Parks
Worley to be marchsl of East Ten
nessee failed to come to the senate.
1t appears that Worley's enemies

However, his hackers predict that the
nomination will be made within few
days. Lee Douglas, of Nashville, was
yesterday nominated for secoad
term as district attorney of Middle
Tennessee, and Stanley H. Trezevant,
of Memphis, was re-nominated for

Mexican Question
Is Called Up

WASHINGTON, July 11.-A defn-
ite statement from the war depart
ment regarding the course of the gov
ernment in respect to protection by
Mexico to American citizens and
property was asked in the house yes
terday by Representative Laguardia,
republican, New York, who declared
that conditions in Mexico "have now
reached the stage where it becomes
our duty to inquire into what is go
ling on and learn what the admins
tration plans doing"
Mr. Laguardia introduced a reso-
luton directing the state department
to submit to the house all communi-
cations which have passed between
this government and Mexico, since
January, 1915, and also all commu-
nications pertaining to Mexican af-
fairs which have passed between the
department and officers of the army
and navy
with this information at hand"
Mr.. Laguardia said, 1--WE can deter
mine what steps to take. We do not
care what means the Mexican gov
ernment takes to preserve order, to
protect American lives and property
let them use the Jaw or their po-
lice, or their military-but we should
insist that they do something and
must henceforth refuse to overlook
any omission on the part of the Mex

War Treaty, Not
Peace Treaty

PARIS, Wednesday, July 9,-The
peace treaty with Germany, SO far
as the military provisions are con-
cerned, is war treaty, not q peace
treaty." Deputy Henry Pate declared
today in report to the committee
of the chamber of deputies which is
studying the treaty preparatory to
reporting to the chamber. The pro-
visions regarding officers for the Ger
man army, he said, would enable Ger
many easily to get on a war footing.
Deputy Pate pointed out that Ger
many will have one officer for every
thirty-two men, thus furnishing the
framework for an army much supe-
rior to the 100000 provided in the
treaty. In this force young men
trained in athletic associations, he
aid, could easily be incorporated.
"This is not disarmament" the re-
port said 1t is Germany on a war
footing"
The deputy's report asks why Ger
many needs heavy artillery for police
duty. 1t concludes by declaring that
this "so-called disarmament will re-
quire France to remain armed beyond
all anticipations."

Holland Sends
Curt Answer

PARIS, July 1.-THE council of
five received yesterday a reply from
Holland in answer to the councils
note regarding the reported escape
from the island of Weiringen of the
former German crown prince. The
Dutch note, in what were said to be
rather curt terms, pointed out that
the rumor Of the escape was unfound-
ed and expressed surprise at the
warning given by the council.
The Dutch government, the reply
added, is conscious of its internal OBJ
legations and must be left free to ex-
ercise its sovereignty as it sees fit.

Missouri Senator
AssaiIs President

/ ATLANTA, July 1o.-In an appeal
to the people of the south not to sup.
port the league of nations covenant,
Senator Reed, democrat, of Missouri,
declared here last night that it would
prove provoker of war instead of
the means for preventing war as is
claimed by President Wilson in his
address to the senate.
Speaking in short sentences with
lengthy pauses between each, Mr..
Reed continued:
president Wilson told you today
that God is running this thing. A
good many men have undertaken to
represent God. don't believe it.
They tell you that these nations are
going to sit down and be good, but
what not been brought about in two
thousand years by Christ's sermon
on the Mount will not be accomplished
at Paris peace conference"
The Missourian begged his hearers
not to be swept away by the "ideal-
ism" Of the President, but to stand
for the practical things of the re-
public since the days of Washington.
He denied the fright of temporary
public officer to sacrifice the lives
and fortunes of his people while he
sat safe at home indicting essays"
Mr.. Reed discussed the various
questions that came up at the peace
conference, including the Irish and
the Shantung issues, and turning to
the labor agreement he added "the
proposition is that labor has a right
superior to the rest of the world, par
ticularly of organized"
Mr.. Reed was introduced by former
United States Senator Thomas W.
Hardwick. who, described himself and
the MissouFan rs comrades In incur
ring the displeasure Of the President"
The former Georgia senator also re-
ferred to the Missouri senator as "a
democrat in the principle and in fact"
and Senator Reed called himself @
"simon pure democrat"
