Reply to President

indianapolis, Ind, Sept 11.-Unde-
niably the people of indianapolis are
concerned over the arguments for aud
against ratification of the league OF
nations covenant. When President
Wilson spoke here last Friday he con-
tributed to that concern by assuring
his audience that the high cost of
living would be reduced through i'm :
mediate acceptance of the covenant
without reservations.

He taxes the two months that the
league and treaty have been before

gets the eight months he spent
abroad secretly pledging our re-
sources and our man power to Euro
pcan and Asiatic governments, The
living cost in December and January
last were substantially the same as
they are today. But he had neither
the time nor inclination to deal with
the problem then.
But now the president would
brighten us into immediate ratifica-

cious statement He declared that
the president ''endeavors to frighten
his opponents with epithets of pro-
