""VisiOn Of tile League of Nations Can Only be Realized in Heaven" Reiter- ates Senator Reed.

St. Louis, Mo-, Jan. S.-Speaking before the National. ,Shoe Retailers Association, in convention here last night, United States Senator James A. Reed, reiterated his attacks on ioresi- dent Wilson's plan for league of ma tlons, and declared the only way the United States could be assured free dom from the ravages of war was to build up an invincible army and navy.
 "The hope of the world is in Amer ica," he declared, land the vision of the League of Nations can only be realized in Heaven.
 "IS it not strange to talk of ruling the world by love, when, in view ts the great war just ended, not love, but arms saved civilization from savagery ?
 Are we, in the face of this recent history, to lay down the arms that saved us, enter into treaty agreements with nations that have disregarded treaty obligations; or are we going to adopt the other proposition and create a great international army and navy, sufficient to conquer any two or three nations of the world, thus placing ourselves in a situation where we may at any moment be crushed by this in- ternational juggernaut which we have helped create?
 Shall we permit ourselves to be brought into every European squabble and allow our young men to be con scripted to do service on every sea and every land at the dictation of the League of Nations?
 By entering such League, we sur, render part of our sovereignty; we vio- late our constitution by surrending ing to foreign nations the powef re- served to congress to declare war and to make peace; we lose our self-gov- ernment; and we compel our citizens to serve in foreign wars.
