JOHNSON BEGS FOR
DEFEAT OF LEAGUE
Declares Treaty Supporters
Trying to Rush 1t Through
Before 1t Is Understood

Omaha, Neb.. September 17-At a
luncheon given by Omaha business
men today Senator niram W. johnson
of California made a plea for the de-
feat of the league of nations cove
nant in its present form.
The only hope of the friends of the
league of nations is to rush it through
the Senate before the people under
stand It," said Senator johnson. They
are giving us an idea of the burden
the pact imposes on the United States
in homeopathic doses. We have the
German treaty before US and we know
what that provides, but we have not
seen the Austrian. Turkish and Bull
gariaE treaties. These treaties. wni.h
are based on the secret agreements
MADE before their country entered the
war require us to guarantee with our
piooc and treasure the division of fo--
eign territory and peaples in Europe
and Asia"
