a selfish desire for aggression, as the
Overwhelming force of this covenant

will remain that cannot without dihi-
Guilty or danger be submitted to the
high court of arbitration.
81 have therefore reached the con-
clusion that, as nation. we will be
better off in the worlds affairs by
accepting the terms of the organiza-
ton of the present League of Nations
than to destroy all opportunity for
the establishment OF a worlds trt-

WILLIAMS CONTINUES
PERSECUTION ON STAND,
DECLARES W. H. COOPER

Wade H. Cooper Washington bank
er. mentioned by Comptroller Will
liams in his testimony today, de-
cIares that Mr.. williams is continu-
ing his policy of persecution, even on
the witness stand.
He is merely talking for publica-
ton, not TO help get at the facts in
the present case" said Mr.. Cooper
after this mornings hearing.
He dragged in, today. the name Of
a man who has had nothing to do
with the present controversy, merely
to hurt my institutions. The man
against whom he made charges has
severed his connections with the
Cooper banks.
Mr.. Williams continues to make
irresponsible statements before the
Senate committee. He doesn't seem
TO care what becomes of the f1nan-
cial institutions whose safety and
regularity he is appointed to safe
guard.
He is supposed to be the protector
OF financial institutions as well as an
inspector of them and a representa-
tive Of depositors and stockholders.
He is going out of his way in an at
tempt to make trouble"

Plotted Against China.

Senator Norris charged that "it is
clearly disclosed that while these
leading governments OF the world
were inducing China to get into the
war, in order that they might Sc
cure her assistance and particularly
that they might be able to get pos
session OF the German ships informed
in China's harbors, they were secretly
plotting among themselves as to her
destruction as soon as she had COM
piled with their wishes and the war
was over"
1T gives a death blow to the great
doctrine of INSTRUMENTATION, for
which it, was claimed that this great
war was in part at least fought and
won" Senator Norris said. 1T brands
all the claims and protestations of our
civilization with hypocrisy and multi
fees every instinct of the human heart
for justice and equality. And these
same nations are going to be the
leading spirits in the league of nations
we are to set up by this treaty
This treaty should go back, and
believe if the American people could
have an opportunity to see the vice
that ii contains and were able to ex-
press their patriotic sentiments, il
would go back by practically a unani-
nous vote" Senator Norris declared.

CLAUSE WICKED,
DECLARES NORRIS; SAYS
HE WILL OPPOSE TREATY

Declaring the Shantung clause in
the treaty of peace to be so indie
feasible, so unjust and so wicked that
il alone would be sufficient to reject
the treaty" Senator Norris of North
Dakota, who has been a consistent OPP
ponent of war in the Senate, today
announced on the floor that he would
vote against the ratification of the
peace treaty in its present form.
Il desire to say that during all Of
my public life l have been a firm
believer in some kind of an interna-
tionaI agreement between the leading
civilized nations of the world that
would make war between civilized
nations as nearly impossible as hui
man ingenuity could devise" Senator
Norris said.
THE League of Nations is only
part of the treaty. 1t contains itself
many Objectionable features, but even
if we were willing to accept 1t in it's
present form, we could not do so
without accepting the entire treaty.
standing out prominently among
the things that have caused war in
the past is the question of armament
There is no provision in the treaty
anywhere that will bring about dis
armament.
THE compact for a League of Ma
tiOns should require that all business
should be done in public. The com
pact for the League OF Nations should
also contain a provision for the arbi-
tration of international disputes. The
constitution for a League OF Nations
ought not to include anything that is
not absolutely necessary TO carry out
the object OF the compact"
Senator Norris declared that he
could not sympathiEe with arguments
that the League of Nations would
weaken our sovereignty or would
override the Monroe doctrine, and
that he would be perhaps willing to
accept the league. with its faults as
he found them, il ii were not that
acceptance of the league and the
treaty would mean acceptance of the
Shantung clause.

 There is no use in running away with the idea that Hyder will become a big mining camp until a lot Of money is expended on roads. There is some trouble because the mines are all on the Canadian side and the outlet on the American side and Can ada can't build roads in Alaska and Alaska doesn't care to build roads to develop Canadian mines.
 However, the Alaska Road Com mission and the Canadian government are planning to cooperate in road building and as considerable money is being spent by the Premier mine, roads into the country will eventually be built and it will be possible to de- velop the district"
