LORD ROBERT GIVES
HIS VIEWS on TOPICS
FACING THE NATIONS

PARIS, Thursday, January % {by the
Associated Press1 THE question Of
whether the Panama canal should be in
teFnatienalizsd under the league of ma
tiens would depend entirely upon the
| attitude of the United States govern
ment, sacesrding to, the belief expressed
teni&At ByrI.ord Robert Cecil. who has
subnsstted to the peace congress a draft
Of the British view Of sthe structure OF
the league. He spoke at a conference
Of Journalists in answer to query
based upon speculation, by the press on
features Of the new society Of nations
ELerd Robert said he had not heard
any formal specific discussion Of the
mentioned only Incidentally in .cennsc-
that the Panama canal Is not on the
same basis as :;soEne other waterways,
since II is the property OF the United
States and 1t must be for that country
TO- say how It. shalt be controlled
In speaking Of tho admission of neu-
trails into the league on. the same basis
as ether nations, Lord Robert said that
it WAS his conception that there should
be no -classifica ation, but that all sover-
! eign independent states should have
z
which followed this remark he said 1t
would be a aisasteri II no South Ameri-
can nations were included in the organi-
cation.
The question was raised as to
whether. IL big indemnity is as
sessed against Germany. she should
be kept out of the league until pay
ment WAS completed Lord Robert re-
piled she should not be barred merely
because Of her inabilitytto pay. in case
| the indemaities should run over a long
period. He said that no definite pro-
posals had as yet been made regard
ing limitation Of ornaments, which, is
presenting an extremely dif1cnlt prob
lem. In his opinion there must be
| Limitation, but there cannot be total
disarmament, since every country
must maintain scertain defensive
| forces.
| In discussing means for enforcing
the rulings Of the league Lord Robert
said:
"If you are going to try to force
peace by the mechanical perfection of
your machinery the attempt will be
/ a failure. You must have behind you
public opinion. Machinery is impor-
tant, but without a favorable atmos-
phere against war 1t will fail"
He believed that a free press is
highly important, since through the
press this favorable atmosphere can
be created.

Take Up Side Lines.

.eWhy 1T has become a common thing
in ,aIl departments for employees to
ask the. men working with them what
Dawson said. ut is so obvious that
as the average salary is insufficient
to support a family a man must have
other sources of income to enable
him to get by.
There is actual suffering and want
among employees because their pay is
not enough to properly support life.
OF the number of statutory employees
on the pay roll only III get moro
than $500 a year.
Mr.. Dawson said strong commit
tee of District citizens would appear
before the Senate committee next
Tuesday to urge a favorable report
on the Johnson-Nolan bill providing
a minimum wage of SO per day for
District employees. This would afford
instant and permanent relief, MIR. Daw-
son said.
