ANCL0 FRENCH PACT IS READ TO COMMONS
ATTENTIONS!
Gen. Ord. No. I, Div. Hq,

From: Every loyal American citL
zen Who claims Ottawa as "home."
To: All red bIooded, honest to God
fighting men who buckIed on the
sword and no matter in how small a
way did his bit in beating the Hun.
Subject: Uniforms for July q.
All soldiers and sailors. to avoid
being branded home sackers, will ap-
pear in regulation army or naval uni
forms for tomorrow's big celebration,
planned, paid for and to be carried
out by an admirins city for YOUR
benefit--and NO ONES ELSE.
To show appreciation of an appre-
citation being shown you, it is not too
much to ask you that you don the old
o. D. for just one more little fling at
patriotism. It will give the home
folks treat.
Twenty-Five thousand proud people
will watch you. Hundreds and run,
dreds of mascuines will envy your
part in the worlds greatest worth
while affair. They weren't uniformed
FOR no less a reason than they couldn't
he-aqe. health or something else was
against 'em. But they'd like to have
had the chance to wear that outfit
you've got hanging away in the dark
closet at home. Then there'il be the
out and out s'ackers, the yellow kind
who should have been with you but
weren't Make 'em blush red and
then turn green with envy. The o. D.
is the best recipe for bringing yellow
hoys who were yellow and showed ye!-
low to wish they hadn't been.
Then there are the wives, mothers,
sweethearts and sisters who'll get
rome more thrills out Of your being
back In the old outfit. Treat 'etn
right, boys. They backed you to the
last trench, and even let you take
their hearts over there to be tram
pied upon by the nasty Huns. Don
you think they are entitled to some
consideration? If you don't yoL
should have been stay-at-home and
have seen what those blessed women
we're doing while you we're gore. II
someone could tell you tonight what
your being soldier again means to
those God-sent mothers and wives and
aweethcarts and sisters. there'd he no
indecision on your part afterWard.
You'd bust your OF bean to please 'em.
Be q sport, and a good one.
Don't let the trifer and don't-care
govern your acts after what you've
been through.
Then there are propaeandsts at
home who must be watched. Maybe
their propaganda is jealousy. eh'
Has it appeared to you in that light
yet?
At ease, men.
Per GENERAL PUBLIC.
Commanding.

London, July g. Premier David Lloyd
George this afternoon, laid the text of the Ger

man peace treaty before
the house of commons
and announced that the
ex-Kaiser will be tried
soon before an interna-
tionaI tribunal sitting in London.
At the same time he made the first
official announcement. in. commons
that the United States and England
have pledged themselves to go to
the immediate aid of France if France
is made the object of an unprovoked
act of aggregression by Germany.
The Anglo-French defensive pact,
with a copy Of the American
pact attached was submitted to COM
mons with the text of the general
treaty signed at Versailles last Sat
urday It's terms, which had been
generally known in advance of their
receipt by the house Of commons, ac-
casioned no surprise here.

Washington, July 3.-Presdent
Wilson is bringing home with him
the text of the pact which would
pledge the United States Immediately
to give military aid to France in the
event Of an unprovoked attack upon
her by Germany, it was learned here
today.

Altho announcement was made at
the time the official summary of the
treaty was made public early in May
that such pact would be sought. it
had been virtually lost sight of in
the bitter debate that has raised
abou the league of nations covenant
in the senate since that time. 1t was
evident that practically all senator's
who will continue to oppose ratifica-
tion of the league of nations covenant
also would be found lined up against
the pact.

ASK REGULATION Of
LOOP TRAFFIC WHILE
RUSH HOURS ARE ON
PREClplTATES A
LENGTHY DEBATE IN COUNCIL
MEETING AND ENDS WITH DE-
CISION CALLING FOR PETITION
FROM BUSINESS MEN.

Regulation of traffic during rush
hours was momentous question dis
cusscd last night by the city council.
Complaints of congestion on La Sale
and other principal loop streets were
brought before the commissioners by
J. Ward Conde, Main street garage
man, who verbally requested that
some steps be taken to relieve condi-
lions which make travel through the
business district akin to impossible
during late afternoon hours in general
and Saturday nights in particular.
Opposition to any plan which would
drive the autoists away from tho
stores, thereby jeopardizing trade OF
merchants, was voiced by William
Bradley, who saw no way out of the
difficulty except regulating the man
ner in which machines should be
stopped along the main thoroughfares
and by compelling drivers to come
into the curb at an angel of 40 de-
srees on all occasions.
Mr.. Conde and Commissioner Brad
ley talked at considerable length, dur
ing which they gave their versions Of
what constituted proper parking AMI
what would constitute Inconvenience
should the automobiles be kept from
blocking the streets during periods
when congestion was apparently very
manifest
Reference to Chicago and other
large city regulations brought no re-
sponsive chord from the commission
ers, it being generally felt that OF
tawa was in no position to be com
pared with metropolitan centers
where enforcement rules can be
adopted and then put into practice
The appearance Of Mr.. Conde bore
some fruit though there was little
more than argument during the coun-
ell session. when proposition to pass
a petition among the merchants in an
effort to get their opinions OF park
ing ordinance was presented and ac
cepted as the only practical solution
for the situation.
Commissioner Dougherty Joined
with Commissioner Bradley in the be-
lief that the city should not arbi
trariy do anything to drive away
business from the merchants. He ad.
vanced the theory that first come
should he first served, and belated ar.
rivals in the loop should depend upon
their own ingenuity to find parking
places for their machines.
DR.. Palmer expressed himself as
iavoring some form of restrictive or
dinancc which would make il neccs
sary for an autoiSt to move his nl>
chine on after arlting it longer than
thirty minutes in any one spot He
believed such a law would help the
merchant rather than drive trane
from him by giving more parties o
chance to come up IN front OF ms
store to buy his wares,
! The mayor was asked for his views
and said he would not consider the
matter at all until after the retailer
| had been given chance to submit
| their ideas ON the matter in the form
of a formal petition to the council.
| Commissioner Sticklin took no par
| in the discussion either pro OF con.
