Monroe Doctrine and the liability Of
the United States to provide armed
forces to protect other members Of
the league.
The descriptive phrase" employed
in connection with the Monroe Doc
trine is said by Mr.. Hughes to be in.
accurate, while Y is branded by him
as trouble BREEDER" which if not
eliminated, should be thoroughly in
terpreted. ANY reservations" Mr.
Hughes added should be incorporated
in "the instrument of ratification,
to make it valid, but the fact that
such reservations are made should not
lead to the assumption that the treaty
would fail or the peace conference
would have to resume operations.
The Four Reservations
Summarized, Mr.. Hughes four res
ervations are:
First, that on giving notice of its
intention to withdraw from the lea
que, power shall cease to be a men,
Der or subject to obligations of the
covenant at the time specified in the
notice, but that such withdrawal shall
not release that power from debt or
liability Heretofore incurred.
Second, that questions such as inn
migration or import duties, which are
solely within domestic jurisdiction,
shall not be submitted for considera-
ton of action by the League.
Third, that the United States shall
not relinquish its traditional attitude
toward purely American questions,
which shall not be subject to juris-
diction Of the league, leaving this
country free to oppose acquisition by
country or territory in
The Western Hemisphere.
Fourth, that under Article x the
United States shall assume no obliga-
ion to undertake any military sxpc6i-
ion or employ its armed forces on
and or sea unless such action is au-
horned by Congress.
The resolution suggested by Mr.
Hughes is embodied in s letter reply
ng TO one from Senator Hale request
nc Mr.. Hughes opinion on TIE valid
ty Of reservations to the proposed !
ovenant and also asking Mr.. Hughes
what reservations in your judgement
hould be made to SAFEGUARD the in
erests of our country" In his letter,
senator Hale asserts he wants 10
ee some plan devised whereby the
United States may safely enter the
.eague # Nations"
Believes in League.
In his reply. ar Hughes states
there is . plain need for League Of
'stions." he sdded that there is also
be immediate exigency to be consid-
red and that 1t is manifest that ev-
W REASONABLE effort should be made
, establish peace as promptly and to i
ring abo, a condition in whicr Eu- 7
ne can resume its normal industrial {
stivitv
Il can see no reason why these OBJ
cts cannot be attained without sac r

Mr.. Hughes continues. There is a a
iddle ground between aloofness and +
furious commitments. j

An Essex

The Essex is 90 well advertised because it
flls the want so many people have long en-
tertained.
Everything you hear about the Essex is
what motorists think of it, At first only i'm
pressions such as came from store room
view and short ride were given. But those
views were all to the sdvantage of the Essex.
Now thousands Of owners know from daily
service just how good car the Essex is.
The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1919-08-03
Six Million Motorists

Six million American motorists have rather
definite perceptions of their ideal car. The
Essex seems to have met the ideal of many
thousands of that number. 1t is evident on
every hand. You hear favorable mention Of
the Essex wherever the subject is discussed.

No industry has equaled the automobile
Tor its surprises. And judged by the way
people everywhere have taken to it, no car
has equaled the Essex in the quickness with
which it has gained its leadership.

late international legal principles anC
settlement Of disputes by impartia,
tribunals, Mr.. Hughes declares there
is merit enough in the proposed plan
to make it desirable to secure it, il
proper safeguards can be obtained
He adds that lit is as futile to exag-
gerate its value as it is to see moth
ing but its defects. In his opinion the
proposed covenant should be viewed
"as mere beginning" but it is inn
portant that a false start should not
be made.
The question as to the validity of
reservations has two aspects, says Mr..
Hughes. First, with respect to ac-
tion on our part which is essential to
making of reservations; aud, second,
as to the effect of reservations upon
other parties to the treaty.
"As to the first question, it is man.
ifest that attempted reservations will
be effectual unless they qualify the
act of ratification" said Mr.. Hughes,
adding that such reservations must
constitute part of the instrument of
ratification.
Fixes Responsibility.
If the proposed reservations are I'M
reasonable, responsibility for defeat
of the treaty would lie with those
who refuse the vote essential to the
assent, in the opinion of Mr.. Hughes,
who points out that, on the other
hand, if the Senate gives IT'S assent to
treaty with reservations and Presid1t
Wilson should refuse concurrence, re-
sponsibiliy would lie with him.
Pointing out that where treaty is
made on the part of a number of ma
t rs, they may acquire in a partial
ratification on the part of one or
more, Mr.. Hughes declares, "state-
nents to safeguard our interests |
which clarity ambiguous clauses in
he covenant can meet no reasonable
objection"
Nor should we assume that a res
,rvation would lead to the failure Of L
he treaty or compel resumption of
he peace conference, when the res
rvation leaves unimpaired the main
provisions of the covenant and simply
eeks TO avoid any apparent assump-
ion Of obligation on our part to join
n war at some indefinite time in
he future for a cause the merits of
which cannot now be seen," Says Mr..
hughes.
Taking up the subject matter of his
our reservations, Mr.. Hughes said
hat with regard to Article concern
ne the right Of withdrawal from the
aagle there should be a clarifying
as to a part Of the ratifiea-

The Illinois legislature ha directed
that the week beginning May II is to
be known as Health Promotion week.
and has directed the people under the
guidance of the state board OF health TO
put their premises in order.
The cleanliness Of the army camps
has given some people a "honing" to
go and do likewise. The state director
general quotes a soldier as saying: we
found out a lot OF things about health
in The army that we didn't know be-
fore. It's q cincl, that every returned

is to clean up enough to meet army
