Peace Declaration
Needed at Once.
Says Poindexte1
Washington Senator at Union
University Dinner Urges
Armament of America Be
Equal of Any in World

Senator Miles Poindexter, Of Wash
ington, spoke last night Of the "shame-
full" delay in fixing permanent peace
conditions and outlined a program Of
things as they ought to be. He spoke
at the annual dinner Of the Union Col
lege Alumni Association at the Hotel
Astor.
at is the duty of the United States"
he said, "to declare peace lat once
and to allow the resumption in every
respect of normal domestic and foreign
relations. War Legislation has too
long been in force. A state of war
should come to an end and the war
powers which have been vested in the
executive branch of the government
should Immediately be returned to the
people War taxes should be reduced
and repealed as rapidly as possible and
friendly relations should be resumed
IN our intercourse with the world.
ut has been proposed by the repre-
sentatives Of the United States at the
peace conference that we should sub
ordinate Ourselves as nation to Great
Britain; that Great Britain should
be permitted to maintain unreduced
her naval establishment and that the
United States should permanently ac-
cept position of an inferior naval
power.
81 am utterly opposed to any such
conditions. The United States, in case
of reduction of armament, should be
placed upon an equal footing with any
other nation of the world. If limi-
tation of armament cannot be agreed
upon, the United States should be left
the sovereign right of maintaining a
navy equal to any other navy in the
world
"By some strange psychological abb
erraton it is also advocated that after
binding us in the subordinate position
Great Britain shall be given six times
as much power as the United States
in the international government. I think
a great deal of Great Britain and ad-
miro her capacity for looking after
her own interests, but | do not think
six times as much of her as | do Of
the United States"
Other speakers were Dr. Charles Al
exander Richmond, president of Union
University, and the Rev Dr. George
Alexander, pastor Of the First Prcsby-
terian Church, of this city. DR.. Frank
lin II. Giddings, of Columbia Univer-
sity, was POSTMASTER.
New-York tribune., 1919-12-12
Ambassador Grey Will
Return to England Soon
Question of His Retention of
Washington Post Has Not
Been Decided

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.--viscount
Grey, of Falloden, British Ambassador
to the United States, notified Secretary
Lansing to-day that he would return
to England soon on leave of absence.
Whether Lord Grey will return to
Washington is dependent upon the pos
sibility of his being able to arrange
his private business interests and upon
the decision of the British Foreign
Office as to whether he alone can carry
forward the great projects for common
action by America and Great Britain
in the reorganization of finances and
commerce and international relations.
Lord Grey has been in America less
than three months and expects to leave
about The beginning Of next year. Sir
William Tyrrell. formerly Under Sec
retary of the British Foreign Office,
who consented to accompany him as
an act of personal friendship, and
Ronald Campbell, who came as an at
tache to the Embassy, also will re-
turn.
- Because Of his personal interest in
American affairs Lord Grey desires to
make another visit to America in a
private capacity, if he does not re-
turn in an official status.
The British Embassy issued the fol-
lowing statement tonight on the am
bassador's proposed departure for Eng
land:
Lord Grey proposes to take advan-
tage Of the present situation to take
some home leave"

German Verse Still Lurking in
Textbooks Will BE
Eliminated

the public schools Of New York city.

A little girl out in one Of the Queens
boro schools took her books home for
night study yesterday afternoon, and
among them was "Dictation Day by
Day." a speller, by Kate Van WaRenen,
New York public school principal.
Her parents chanced to look through
the book and found the German verse,
They were surprised and indignant.
When the matter was brought to his
attention by The Tribune yesterday. DR.
William l.. Ettinger, Superintendent Of
Schools, admitted the verse had no
place in a public school book at this
time. and said it must have been over
looked when similar matter was elimi-
mated from the school books early in
the war. c. e. Meleney, chairman of
the Committee on Text Books, said the
verse would be taken out Immediately.
The book is on the optional list
having been approved long before the
war, and is used in only few Of the
city schools.
DR.. Ettinger's loyalty and patriotism
were praised in resolutions passed
Wednesday afternoon at meeting of
the board Of delegates Of the Teachers
Loyalty League. The ousting of teach
ers unpatriotic in or out of school
hours was urged.

Liquor Worth 100000
Shipped to Canada
While Alert for Lifting of Lid
Here, Dealers Export
"Wet Goods"

Canada, England and the Far East,
particularly Canada, are being used to
absorb and store the excess liquor
stocks of this country, while the dis
tillers keep one eye out for the pos
sible lifting of the wartime liquor ban,
it was learned yesterday. Contrary to
general belief, sale for export is per-
missible until January 16, it was stated.
More than 100000 worth of liquor
has recently been sent to Canada,
where storage room now demands a
neat premium, it was declared by a
bro ker in touch with the situation.
Montreal is said to be receiving par
tlcularly large shipments.
Meantime wholesale houses continue
to book up orders contingent upon the
lifting of the lid. One concern is
known to have orders for S5 00O, 900
worth of wet goods. There are thou
sands of orders now on the books, and
even so much as a ve-day lifting of
the lid would serve to liquidate these,

voted on and failed, and then the Sem
ator from Massachusetts, moved to re-
consider, and then the majority tabled
that motion" said Senator Underwood.
"That procedure disposed Of my motion,
but it did not dispose of tho treaty.
The treaty Ia still before the Senate.
1t is true that so long as the Repub-
lican majority says the treaty is dead
II 10 dead for the time being, because
the majority will not take 1t up, but
any time the majority decides to
resurrect it it can quickly do So"
"The President can withdraw the
treaty without the Senate's permission
and then resubmit it, thus getting it
before the Senate" insisted Senator
Lodge.
"And if the treaty is dead, the Presi-
dent should be notified that it Is dead
and it should be returned to him." re-
torted Senator Underwood. "But the
trouble is that the Senator from Massa-
chusetts cannot secure majority of
votes to do that"
Not Necessary, Says Lodge
"The fact also is that no such action
is necessary" replied Senator Lodge.
"Why should the President withdraw
the treaty?" demanded Senator Under
wood. "He has sent 1t to the Senate,
the Senate has it, and majority can
at any time go into executive session
to consider it, when motion can be
made to ratify it. But it is impossible
to get majority vote to do this. 1t
would be useless for the President to
withdraw it and then return it to us.
IT the treaty is dead, it is not dead by
my vote. 1t is now the duty of the
majority to work out an understanding
with the Democrats here and with the
President by which to ratify the treaty
and reestablish status of peace"
ITO some of u.s." declared Senator
Borah, "there is a good deal Of conso-
lation In this discussion of the fate
Of the treaty. II nobody else cares
to take the responsibility, l am per-
fectly willing to accept it. I trust it
is true that the treaty is dead, and I
trust that it may stay dead. If it
does, it will be the best job to the
credit of the Senate that this body
has accomplished in many years, and
If this Senate shall accomplish moth
ing more it will have earned the un-
ending gratitude of the people.
THE American people have taken
jurisdiction of this question, and they
will keep it until they give 1t final
settlement at the election Of 1920.
Neither pussyfooting Republicans nor
pussyfooting Democrats will have the
least influence in keeping this issue
from the determination Of the people.
This is an American question, and the
American people will not deal with it
as towards when they go into the
booths to cast their votes
"This timidity, this lack of moral
courage, is destroying the two old
parties of this country. We need a
declaration, and it will come from the
people, not from the Senate"
Until the alleged friends of The
treaty shall present some proposition
looking to it's ratification, nothing can
be done with with it," declared Senator
Lenroot
"Now, the buck having been passed
and repassed," suggested Senator
Thomas, Democrat, of Colorado, 81 sug-
gest that we take vote on the pending
motion"
Senator McNary said few words in
explanation of the sugar bill, and then
the roll was called

Mr.. Lenroot.

aisle to make proposition upon which
That proposition was repeatedly made
to the Senator from Nebraska (Mr
Hitchcock).
1--WE adjourned on Wednesday night
and on Tuesday morning the Senator
from Nebraska was asked to make a
proposition to the chairman Of the
Committee on Foreign Relations, the
Senator from Massachusetts (Mr
Lodge), but he informed the Senator
from Massachusetts that afternoon
that he could not do so, presumably be-
cause he had not had an opportunity to
consult the President Of the United
States; presumably because the Sena-
tors upon the other side of the aisle
were not willing to act upon their own
responsibility, but intended to follow

flclent votes to defeat the ratification

Britain again Postpones
Irish Bill Introduction

LONDON, Dec. 11.--The introduction
of the Irish bill in the House of Com
mons was again postponed to-day.
Andrew Bonar Law, spokesman for the
government, announced that in con-
sequence of the visit of Premier Glenn
cnceau of France Premier Lloyd
George woul<. be unable to bring the
measure forward either Monday or
Tuesday, and he could not say whether
1t would be introduced next week.
An impromptu debate on the Irish
situation took place in the House of
Commons at questions time, when
William mond, Nationalist member
for WATERFORD inquired Of Mr.. Bonar
Law whether it was a new idea to en-
force conciliation by coercion. This
question followed the spokesman's re-
ply to the question whether the po-
litical offenders in Ireland would be
released before the introduction of the

Destined for English Port
Xmas Fair Is Prohibited
Armed Troops and Police
Make Roundup When Or.
der to Close Is Disobeyed

DUBLIN, Dec. 11.-Raids we're made
by the police and military to-day in
Dublin and throughout the provinces.
There were many arrests, though the
police refused to give the exact num-
Der. The homes Of several prominent
Sim Feiners were searched, amorg
them the house Of Count Plunkett, who
was absent at the time. Thomas Kelly.
Sim Fein member Of the House Of
Commons, was among those arrested.
The prisoners were taken to Kings
town in military lorries. They were
placed in rowboats and taken out to
warship, which sailed later for an
English port. The men deported in
cluded more than dozen arrested in
the provinces, it was learned, though
no news of raids or arrests outside
of the city had been printed this after
noon by the newspapers here. Armored
cars and tanks were used by the mill
tary to guard the harbor approaches.
1t is rumored that the destination uf
the prisoners is Wormwood Scrub Jail,
in London.
Failed to Obey British Order
Kelly was served on Tuesday evening
with a police magistrate order to close
the Sim Fein headquarters which, de-
spite several raids and it's suppression
by proclamation, has continued in oper-
alton. The order was not obeyed.
The Mansion House was surrounded
this afternoon and a search of the
building was conducted by police and
troops.
One hundred policemen and 500 SOL
dlers were engaged. The soldiers,
wearing steel helmets, arrived in motor
lorries and carried rifles with fixed
bayonets. They were also provided
with machine guns. There was no
most without excitement.
Sim Fein leaders did not trv to
avoid arrest. Some were walking the
streets long after the raids.
When the soldiers arrived in Dublin
1t was believed at first that they were
seeking for Sim Feiners who had es-
capped from custody. Later it was re-
ported, however, that the object of
their visit was to suppress the Aonach-
nanodlaig, or Christmas Fair, which
was to have opened Tonight. - The fair
is held annually by the Gaelic League,
a prescribed organization, for the dis
pl y of Irish manufactures.
The Lord Mayor announced tonight
he had been notified by the govern
ment that the fair would not be al
lowed. This announcement contra
dicted the statement made earlier in
the day by Colonel Johnson, Chief Of
Police, that the fair would be. permit
ted and the troops withdrawn. Colo
mel Johnson had explained that the
raids followed an erroneous report
that meeting of Irish Volunteers was
being held in the Mansion House.
