Senator Borah, rampant opponent of
the league, broke out in a new place
last week, with charges that the propa-
ganda of the league to enforce peace,
headed by ex-President Taft, is
financed by Wall street, Mr.. Taft's or
ganization glOries in the fact that most
of it's financial support comes from
men of big business and broad vision.
ut may be-" said Senator Borah.
that the occasion for the opposition
upon the part of small men is not a
limitation of vision; it may possibly
be that their investments are not the
same and their interests are not the
same.
at may be that they are combining
themselves to the interests of their
tons and policies of their country, and
it may possibly be that those who
take a wider view of the matter are
those who have large investments in
other countries, and who propose to
have more investments there. which in
veStments will be worth very little un-
less they are underwritten by the Unit
ed States government"
1t is not easy to see why American
business men should be criticized be-
cause they wish to see peace perma-
nently established in Europe so that
they can resume trade, commerce and
industry with the Europeans, An in
stance Of what they are getting ready
to do is supplied by the news that
three great American construction con-
Germs have been awarded a contract
for the rebuilding of the Nancy district
of France at an estimated figure of
$3.50 100000, which sum may be dou-
bled.

Dispatches from Weimar declared
that the national assembly would at
once take up the peace treaty and that
majority for its ratification was as
Sured. The Germans had been mott
fed that the blockade would be lifted
as soon as the pact were ratified, and
they expressed the hope that German
prisoners of war would be released at
the same time. - an earnest of their
good Intentions th>, Germans ceased all
warfare on the Poles simultaneously
for some time and not without a pro-
sailles. Released IL ON danger in that
direction, the Poles turned all their
attention to the Galician-V olhyuian
'front.', starting counter-offensive in
which they claimed to have broken
the Ukrainian resistance and regained
control of important towns and rail
ways. There is no assurance, how
ever, that Germany will not again
break out on the east front, for accord
ing TO correspondents she has, since
the armistice, reOrganiZed an army of
about 100000 men and gathered
equipment for three times that num-
Der, including as many airplanes as
she had when she surrendered. OF
course all this is contrary to the
terms Germany accepted, and if the
stories are true ting allies will have
to get busy again. The Germans can
be trusted in one respect, and one
only. They will evade the treaty if
it is possible for them to do so.
The French foreign Office gave out
the texts of the proposed agreements
of France with the United States and
Great Britain designed to protect
France against unprovoked aggression
by Germany. The pacts differ in that
Great Britain consents TO come" to
the rescue of France, while the United
States will be bound to come imme-

WASHINGTON, Jan. g. Colonel
Roosevelt left an imprint of his per

President since Lincoln has left behind

He was the modern ruler on horseback

On one occasion the President was
out driving through Rock Creek Park

Colonel lnvlted his guest to accompany
him in a walk. He directed the White
House coachman to meet them at a
point further ON. and. striking out in
'cross-country fashion, he set the pace.
On and on he plunged through the
woods, the painting diplomat trying to
keep pace. Suddenly the two. with the

straight on into the stream, waist-high,
and go on to the opposite bank. For

The Colonel was devoted to Mrs.

painful ear inflammation. The party
was travelling through New Mexico
and was days train ride from the
nearest town where an ear specialist

Mrs. Roosevelt heard of it and before
long Colonel Roosevelt was in the
newspapermen's car inquiring Of the
suffering one whether he could be of
assistance. Assured that there was
nothing that could be done, he returned
to his own car, but was back again in
few minutes with hot-water bag.

Man Throttles Bulldog
And Saves a Cirl's Life
Jaws of Dead Animal Still
Held Grip on Ankle of
Shrieking Child

A French bulldog that dashed from
an apartment house at 83S Riverside
Drive last night clamped its jaws on
the right ankle of Martha Dunno,
twelve years old, of 1874 Riverside
Drive, who was passing. The girl
shrieked and passersby who gathered
sought cautiously and in vain to kick
the dog loose.
Herman Alexander, superintendent
Of the building whence the dog
emerged, gripped it's throat with both
hands and throttled it. For fifteen
minutes he held rigidly the animal
which was seeking to shake and worry
ITS victim. At the expiration of that
time there was no doubt the dog was
dead, but its jaws were still viciously
set.
A patrolman pried them apart with
the barrel of his revolver, after sew

The girl was taken to St. Lawrence
Hospital. The dogs carcass will be

s'He Was as Ideal, Keen a
Sportsman as Ever Lived''
So Says Carl Akely, Who HUNT
ed Elephants With Roose.
welt i'm Africa

He was as ideal and keen a sports
man as ever lived. He found infinite
JOY in the study of wild animal life in
its native haunts. His greatest pleas
ures were in seeing and learning,
thereby proving himself an ideal ma
turalist"
This was the verdict, Yesterday, of
Carl Akeley, elephant hunter and ex-
plorer, upon Col. Roosevelt as a lover
Of the great outdoors.
Mr.. Akeley, head OF the elephant
hunting expedition for the American
Museum of Natural History, encoun-
tered Col. Roosevelt's party in the
African wilds ten yeals ago, and they
had several days Of hunting together.
NO trained observer OF nature
could be more painstaking and accu-
rate than the colonel" said Mr.. AXE
ley He had the keen mind and eye
or the ideal naturalist, and he was
further aided by phenomenal mem
ory, such as few men possess.
He contributed an important dis
coVery to geographical science by t1ac-
ing the River OF Doubt-now officially
named the Theodore River in his honor
4iOhi near lIS source TO Its COntiu-
ence with the Amazon. His enemies
made great fun of this river but the
TACT remains that it was a real River
Of Doubt, because nobody knew where
IT led, until Col. Roosevelt cleared uD
its mystery
"lle never laid claim" continued Mr..
Akeley, "to having discovered the
famous fish which attacks human be-
lngs and all warm blooded animals,
but his description of this fish, which
was scientifically correct in every de-
tan, was distorted by our socalled hu-
morists to the extent that one would
have thought that Col. Roosevelt did
not know whereof he was speaking"
Mr. Akeley expressed the belief that
exposure in the Brazilian wilds,
against which Col. Roosevelt's physi-
clans warned him, was the primary
cause of his death.
His death touches me more deeply
than l can say ended Mr. Akeley,
for he was an inspiration to courage
and faith"
