League of Peoples"
High Praise for President.

History will have much to say of
Woodrow Wilson-the philosopher,
the statesman and the idealist-and
we who love him may confidently
wait for the verdict. But just now
We are chiefly concerned with Will
son the peacemaker, for what he
has done in that respect has been
plainly in our sight.
We have seen him lead his coun-
trymen into war against a giant au-
tocracy. We have seen him rear
aloft the banner of democracy and
with trumpet voice make clear it's
meaning. We have seen him when
the powers of evil against which he
fought seemed near to accomplishing
their design, but whether in joy or
sadness. in triumph or seeming de-
feat, we have not seen him falter or
despair as he worked without ceas-
ing for the victory which he knew
must come at last. =.

Tribute to Lafayette.

Americas tribute to Lafayette was
paid today on the Fourth of July by
Mr.. Wallace, who laid a wreath on
the tomb of the French hero. He said
Il stand here today where SO many
Americans have stood before me and
in reverence and devotion place a
wreath upon the grave of Lafayette
The act itself is simple. but l could
do nothing more perfectly representa-
tive of American sentiments. 1t is as
in my country stretched her hand
across the sea and set loving trib-
ute before the shrine of our best
friend.
ut is most fitting that we should
come to France and seek out the
resting place of Lafayette. OF all
great Frenchmen he is best known
to us, better known in America, in
deed, than he is in France. He is
but one of your heroes. To US he
is the knight in shining armor who
came in the hour of darkness to
help us in our need. No child is
born among us bat learns to link his
name with WaShington's and in man.

Hope for Peace of Justice.

peace is here. Those who made it
and imposed it upon the enemy know
the limitations of human knowledge
and do not expect perfection in any
human act. but we hope it is a peace
of justice. If l could define the in
most thought of the man who came
to Europe to speak for America and
has seen in the league of nations the
attainment ola great hope for the
peoples, it would, I am sure. be this:
The God who in the fullness of
His wisdom and in His own good time
has at last brought the nations to-
gether will not let them fall asunder."

SENATORS DIFFER
ON TRIPLE ALLIANCE
Some Who Oppose League
Favor U. observation-disclosures
Pact as Preferable.

All kinds and shades of opinion are
to be found in the Senate regarding
the proposed triple alliance of the
United States, Great Britain and
France for the protection of France
against German aggression. The
treaty by which this concert of action
is to be prepared will be submitted
separately from the peace treaty, and
will stand on its own merits and be
discussed aside from the world cove
fnant. ~
There are senators who oppose the
league of nations who will favor the
triple alliance for the purpose stated
and limited thereto. There are other
senators who must, for consistency's
sake, oppose the alliance because they
object to the league of nations on the
ground of "entangling foreign al.
liances" They cannot make flesh of
one and fish of another. Any PROPOSE
ton committing the United States to
again sending troops to Europe Will be
resisted by this group.
The supporters of the league of ma
tions of course, are whole-heartedIy
for the triple alliance. 1t is indeed,
they explain, a part of the plan for the
league of nations and dependent for
operation, in certain phases. upon the
creation of the league.
Say It Would Prevent Outbreak.
The Senators who. while opposing
the league of nations. are in favor of
the triple alliance, for the sole pur-
pose stated, explain that they believe
the suggested alliance to be the sur
est preventive against another Hun
outbreak that could be devised. They
saw the plan is simple. workable and,
they believe, highly effective. They
do not see any violation OF George
Washington's precepts in this UNDER
taking, more than there was in the
participation of the United States In
the world war. That was a case of
necessity, of self preservation. and the
proposed treaty. they contend. is in
the same line.
J These senators firmly believe that.
once Germany is given to understand,
as will be done in the entering into
a formal treaty. that France is to be
protected in the future just as she
has been saved in the late war, Ger
many will not again attack France.
They say that it has been demon
strated to certainty that France,
England and the United States when
united can protect France. can whip
Germany, and will be ready to take on
the job again in better preparedness
than before and with instantaneous
action when called upon.
This realization, they believe, will
be. in fact a better guarantee of the
preservation of peace in Europe.
against German disturbance thereof
at least than any possible league OF
nations, cumbersome as they charge
| it to be.

PARIS. July 4-Hugh c. Wallace
American ambassador to France,

While President Wilson honored us
with his presence l could speak for

clear. 1t was only when he returned
to Washington that 1 became the in
terpreter of his policy in Paris.
Believes in Policy Heart and Soul.
And let me say at once that l be-
lieve in that policy heart and soul,
precisely as 1 believe in the great
man who first conceived and published
it to the world. 1t is, in a word, the
only policy that can lead to a real
brotherhood of mana doctrine which
IT is not necessary to preach to
France or to Frenchmen anywhere.
They learned it as we did, over a
century ago, and when the time came
both nations became militant sup
porters of it. 1t was this spirit which
won the great war. and it is only
this spirit which can now establish
a peace of justice among nations.
League of Peoples"
when we speak of the league of
nations we mean the league of peo-
pies. and it is only by a league of
peoples the very brotherhood at
which we have aimed) that such a
peace of justice can be maintained.
The understanding between France
and America has been one of peoples.

can people stand as friends to the

desiring to help them as people to

Armies Paid Sacred Debt.

When our armies came across the
ocean to defend the liberty that
France herself had won they but
sought to repay a sacred debt; yet
the debt remains a joyful burden and
a bond of union for all time between

blessed with liberty best deserve it
when they share it with their broth :
