OPPOSED TO LEAGUE OF NATIONS

The joint debate at Boston over
the league of nations covenant between
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massa-

Lowell Of Harvard university puts the
former, whose portrait is given here
with, in the limelight as perhaps its
foremost opponent. The debate was
doubly important because of the per-
sonality of the debaters. President
Lowell represents the pure student and
theorist. He is author of a standard
treatise on the government of England
and other contributions to the science
of government, which has been his
special subject. He is one of Americas
distinguished scholars and brings to
the consideration Of any public ques-

Senator Lodge, by comparison,

He is himself a historian OF note, a
man of high culture and informed in

ARMY COURT-MARTIAL SYSTEM

Senator George E. Chamberlain Of
Oregon had good deal to say in the
last session Of the Sixty-fifth congress
in criticism of the war department and
more especially of the alleged injus-
tice of the army court-martial sys-
TEN. The hostilities between Senator
Chamberlain and Secretary Baker have
not ceased with the adjournment of
congress.
In the latest encounter Secretary
Baker sent a telegram to Senator
Chamberlain laying the blame for fail
ure to correct the evil in the court
martial system upon congress. He de-
clared he had proposed a remedy a
year ago, but congress had not acted.
The senator promptly retaliated
with q letter In which he declared Mr..
Bakers remedy would have made the
system -"even more reactionary, If
possible, than 1t Is now." He charged
that Mr.. Bakers proposed remedy was
not made in good faith. The senator
