Don't Pull the Treaty Down"
Keynote of President Wilson's Columbus Plea

II have not come to debate the treaty. 1t
speaks for itself if you will let it. The argu-
ments directed against it are directed against
it with radical misunderstanding of the in
strument itself. Therefore, am not going
anywhere to debate the treaty. am going
to expound it, and am right here today, to
urge you in every vocal method that you can
use, to assert the spirit of the American peO-
pie in support of it. Don't let men pull it down.
Don't let them misrepresent it; don't let them
lead this nation away from the high purpose
with which this war was inaugurated and

Real estate men were OF the opinion
yesterday that the action Of the Kew

TO start things moving, and moving
rapidly, was definite action and a leader
such as the Kew Gardens Corporation.

hesitancy and differentiation would be

that from now on announcements OF re-

A rift was made yesterday in the
watchful waiting policy OF builders, par
tioularly suburban builders. by the an
nouncement OF the Kew Gardens Cor
poration that, for them. the time for
action had come and they are now ready
to build homes for those who wish TO
get out OF the city and live in high
class suburban residential communities.
This decision was reached only after
the entire situation had been reviewed
in detail and from every possible angle.
The labor situation, cost Of material,
the purchasing power of money and the
strength Of the demand for the svburban
living accommodations were factors
which the Kew Gardens directors con-
Sldercd we'll before taking the step they
have. They said yesterday they were
satisfied az TO the future and were will
ing to support their belief with all neces-
sary money for building purposes at
Kew Gardens and In the original highly
restricted section OF Richmond Hill.
The policy of the Kew Gardens for
the last nifty years has been to sell to
others. and the purchasers have made
the improvements under their super
vision. Hereafter the Kew Gardens
Corporation Is not only to be the land
seller but the home builder as well, the
departure from its policy being made
TO facilitate situation the like OF
which has never before been known In
