appointment would not go to Ten

to continue in his application. Mr..

List Policy.
Washington, July 22.-Secretary Dan
iels approved today before the house
naval committee a bill giving Admiral
William S. Benson, chief of naval oper-
atoms, and Rear Admiral William S.
Sims. who commanded American naval
forces abroad during the war. perma-
nent rank as admiral. He submitted a
detailed report of the war services of
the officers. but urged that the resolu-
ton be amended to provide full pay for
life instead of active service, with
authority for the president to call them
to duty at need. THE policy of plac-
ing any officer permanently on the ac-
tive list is open to grave objection" he
said.

The Japanese mission is attempting
the belittle the strength of the oppose

ficult, the Japanese diplomat admitted,
and the Japanese people are inclined
to believe that the whole American

appreciation is very gratifying indeed
to me.
Ny ASSOCIATION with the Red Cross
workers in Natchitoches has been a
source of constant joy and inspiration
and whatever success the Home Ser
vice Section of this Chapter has had,
is due in large measure, to the. splen-

ciate their labors.

government was depending upon the
Red Cross to minister to the needs of

Now the work is being enlarged. |
Assistance is to be rendered unto those
who are in need Of it regardless Of
their relation to the war. It has grown
to such proportions that it will require
all of trained workers time in order
that 1t may reach out and meet all Of

have asked the executive committee

nittee that do not intend to leave

LEAGUE OF MATHIS
INDISPENSABLE
Practical Statesman's Hope in
Solving Problems
Question Is Whether We Shall Accept
or Reject Confidence of the World
and Moral Leadership offered.

President Woodrow Wilson at Wash
ington yesterday laid the peace treaty
with Germany before the senate without
attempt to explain its specific terms. His
address, which required 40 minutes to
deliver, was devoted almost wholly TO
the league of nations. American isola-
ton, he said, ended 90 years ago at the
close of the war with Spain. Fear as
to American motives now also had end
ed, he declared. "The only question"
he said, els whether we can refuse the
moral leadership that is offered U.S.
whether we shall accept or reject the
confidence of the word,' and the peace
conference in his opinion, he said, had
already answered that question, "and
nothing but our mistaken action can al
ter it," After the end of the great
war, he said, every enlightened judg-
ment demanded that at whatever cost Of
Independent action every government
that took thought for its people or for
justice or for added freedom should
lend itself to new purpose and utter
ly destroy the old order of information
al politics. Statesmen might find diff
ficulty in accomplishing this purpose, -
he continued, "but the people could see
nOne.' The league of nations, he add
ed, was not merely an instrument to
adjust and remedy old wrongs under d
new treaty of peace. 1t was the only
hope for mankind.
President Wilson was given an ova-
ton when he entered the senate cham
Der and when he concluded the reading
Of his address, but he was not inter
rupted during the reading Senators,
diplomats and crowded galleries fol-
lowed him closely. After concluding
The address the Official copy was inn
mediately referred TO the foreign re-
lations committee and rushed to the
| printer. Fifty thousand copies of the
treaty and the President 3 address were
ordered printed by the senate.
| He said the agreement on the coven-
ant had given the conferees feeling
that their work was to be permanent
and that the most practical among them
':were at last the most ready to refer
to the league of nations the supcrin-
ltendence of all interests which did not
admit of immediate determination Of
lall administrative problems which were
to require continuous oversight"
/ jf'The fact that the covenant of tho
league was the first substantive part of
the treaty to be worked out and agteed
upon and all else was in solution the
President said, "helped to make the
formulation of the rest easier.'
| "What has seemed a council of pen
fection,' he said, "had come to seq
plain council of necessity. The league
of nations was the practical statesmens
hope of success in many of the most diff
| fcult things he was attempting
| When the President entered the SEN
ate chamber escorted by committee of
senators the crowded galleries rose and
cheered for a minute in disregard of
the senate rules. The President mount
ing to the vice presidents seat spoke
briefly TO Vice President Marshal MS
the cheering continued punctuated with
f"rebel" yells.
