 of nations. lie will speak at St.
 Paul and Minneapolis tomorrow

 Sunday. t0. DULUTH, Minn., Sept 19.-Amerl- ca's entry into the league Of nations f will mark the formation of a part nership between the one going, soF vent country in the world with certain q European bankrupts, who after our first experience in meddling and mud ling in foreign politics have come to . secretly despise and detest us, declar' ed Senator Hiram w. Johnson, in ad- dressing a large and enthusiastic audience here tonight.
 "The league of nations" he ceclar- ed. ~comes to us after it's principal members have been gorged with terri tory, with their boundaries and their limits increased beyond the widest dreams and with other immense tracts. of the worlds surface yet to he dis rtbuted among them.
 After these extraordinary acces- sions of territory, the one eoi1G, sol vent national concern on earth under takes by article ten to guarantee for eyer these extraordinary terr:tm iai limits.
 "This section freezes the worri into immutability. 1t assumes to put tne world into a strait jacket, wherein there can be no movement for better ,aent or progress of humanity.
 Beyond and above all this, the maintenance of this static condition is to be accomplished by the blood of just one nation, and that is ours.
 Are you ready, Americans, to pledge your sons and your sons sons to maintain and preserve for all time the present governments the little na- tions arc setting up in Europe and the present governments and boundarles of the British and Japanese empires
 "The great fundamental question which every American father and mother should answer is this: Shall American boys police the world shall American blood uphold, maintain and preserve old world governments and the territorial integrity of the na tions which have immensely increased their bCundaries?'
 Senator Johnson declared that the power of making war should be taken from sovereign rulers and vested i1 the people who should have authority to decide the question by referen dun vote Women, he said, who beal such heavy burdens of war, should be permitted to participate on an equa basis with men in determining whether country should go to war.
 He said that under the league cove nant such plan would be impractica ble.
 Instead of coming closer to th' people in these vital matters, thu league of nations would go a step fur ther from them and place the powe to make war in the hands of the ruler and their representatives, instead o the people" said Senator Johnson.
 He emphasized the point that tn league covenant had been drawn ul in secrecy and that popular suppor for it in this country had been prompt ed by official propaganda, paid for b. taxation from an over burdened pee pie.
 The awful tragedy of the world, he said, the sorrow, the grief and tn anguish of those whose dear one made the supreme sacrifice, the fea ful waste and welter of necessit turned the thoughts of all men and al women to a prevention of anothe world cataclysm. We were resolves after the experiences of this great COT flict, to take as far as human agenc could, some forward step to preclud another.
 Each milestone of the peace COT ference successiyely marks them.P
