to ratification Of the treaty without the
league of nations and would not accept
the plan offered yesterday by Senator
Knox. Republican, PennsEania, to rat
ify the peace terms AID leave the
league question for decision by the vot-
ers.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts and
other prominent Republicans reserved
public comment on the White House
statement. but the Republican view
point indicated beyond doubt was that
the. President must continue to be held
responsible for the deadlock and until
he acts the treaty must remain at a
standstill, probably until January at
least.
Senator Borah of Idaho. Republican,
member of the foreign relations COM
mittee and prominent among the trea-
tvs implacable foes, in a statement to-
night charged that large financial in
terests were engaged in propaganda ia
'voring Senate compromise. and also
proposed to keep the treaty and the
league from being passed on by the
people during the ensuing presidential
campaign.
To the Presidents contention that the
Senate majority is responsible for con-
ditions resulting from delay, Republi-
can leaders pointed to the objections
yesterday of Senator Hitchcock to the
Knox resolution proposing ratification
or the treaty so far as it would effect
peace with Germany and nostnonenoant
of action on the league of nations.
The Knox resolution. which may be
pressed anew this week. is sure to re-

MAN SURVIVES BROKEN NECK
Lieut.. John A. Logan Injured When
His AirpIane Feli-one Of
Few Cases.

Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, o.
Lieut.. John A. Logan, U. S. A., of Cleve-
lard, is one of the few men who have
sustained broken necks and is still
alive to tell the story Of how it hap
pened. The lieutenant is in the base
hospital here, and attending surgeons
say that he will enjoy life for many
years to come, despite the broken
neck.
Lieutenant Logan, an aviator, sus-
tanned the injury while on duty in
france. He went up one day over the
vosges sector and engaged several
German planes. A piece of shell from
one of the enemy's guns put his motor
cut of commission and the officer was
forced to volplane.
He lost control and had the prefer
ence of diving on a house or landing
on the ground. he chose the latter,
and when he was dragged from the
wrecked machine it was found that
he had received only a few slight
scratches. He rejoined his squadron,
being able to walk, but that night his
right side became paralyzed. Sur
geons made an examination and it was
found that Logan's neck was broken.

Reproducing the Talmud.

One Of the circumstances Gue to
the war is that it has been found nee
essary to reproduce the plates for
printing the Hebrew Talmud. orig
inally produced in the town of VIII
ma. Russia When this city was cap
tured by Germany the electrotypes Of
the Talmud, it is reported. were used
for ammunition. To reset the work
in Hebrew would take years with an
ordinary outfit.
1t was found necessary that the
plates should be made by photo-enS7ar-
ins. and this work is now being dane
in Montreal under the auspices Of The
Urion Of Orthodox Rabbis of the Unit
ed States and Canada.
The Talmud contains 1900 pages. 8
by IA. and it is divided into Is volumes.
The first volume is finished. and the
second is in print now. It is estimated
that it will take about two years be
fore the work is completed.

Oxen Again Beasts Of Burden.

Oxen Again Beasts OF Burden.
The OK as beast Of burden is COM
ing into its own again in the farming
communities Of the state. according to
q dispatch from Lewiston, Me-, and
the o1sling and apparatus used by
blacksmiths in shoeing the animals,
long ago thrown into the discard. is
In use again. The sling consists Of
rude frame of timber into which the
animal is fastened by pillory. Straps
are then drawn under the body. the
ends being made fast to upper timbers
Of the frame. In blacksmith shops 20
years ago the slings were common.
Oxen are less expensive to feed than
horses and are equally as useful on
small farms, and the rising value of
feed is having much to do with the
comeback of the OK as work animal.

Apparently November is an unlucky

those who were born in November are
Thomas Chatterton, who. in diSappoint-

Or the others. January saw the birth

March was the l,tl. month of S.nol-

In April was. born the greatest
genius the English language has
known, William Shakespeare, while
among others born in this month were
Wordsworth, Keble. Heber, Swinburne
and Herbert Charlotte Bronte and
Anthony Trollope were also born in
this month.
! June is not very good month,
Charles Reade and Charles Kingsley
being the only two writer's.
July gave US Thackeray and George

September and October were both
poor months, Mrs. Hemans and 81. g.
Wells being born in September and

Finally Milton. Gray and Matthew

were also Jane Austin and Carlyle.
So there is hope for most people as

Jean jacques Rousseau Had Rig
Conception of Conditions That
Made for Freedom.

Prof. KrnneIh Colesrove tf Sy
cuSe university declares that world
mocracy is the sole basis Of wo
peace. Writing in the Worlds W
he says:
In the year 1913. when the amh; ssa-
doris of the European powers %ere en-
gagged at the congress OF Utrecht IN
bringing to close the War of the
Spanish Succession. the Ahbe de Saint
Pierre was writing the final pages OF
his little treatise called the "ProJect
for Perpetual Peace" He proposed
confederation of the kings and princes
Of Europe. with congress or diet or
ambassadors where all disputes be-
tween the different states should be
settled by arbitration. and where gen
eraI rules should be adopted from time
to time for the purpose Of promoting
the peace and welfare Of each and
every realm Rousseau criticized the
abbe's plan; declaring it contained one
flaw. flaw which vitiated the other
wise noble plan. He believed that a
confederation of European states
could never be formed so long as
kings and princes ruled. For the es-
sence of kingship was nothing else
than the passion to extend it's domln-
ion without and it's absolHtisln within {;
and no plan of confederation, Rous-
seau was convinced. would ever be
able to quench the old fires of rivalry
and despotism. But even if general
alliance Of European monarchs were
possible, it was manifestly impossible
to guarantee princes against the revolt
of their people unless at the same time
subjects were given guaranty against
the tyranny OF their rulers. In launch
ing this latter criticism against the
abbe's project the author Of the $50
cial Contract" foresaw the contingency
of the Holy Alliance Of 1915. when she
autocrats of Europe called the Indivis-
ible Trinity to witness that, as broth
ers of the same family, they would de-
fend the doctrine of the divine right of
kings against the contradiction OF rev.
