Mr.. BRYAN POINTS
TODRAFT'SFAULTS
League Great Step Toward
Peace, He Says, But: "Pre-
serve Monroe Doctrine"

with few important amendments he
regards as essential to the interests OF
the United States. William Jennings
Bryan believes that the draft of the pro-
posed constitution of the league OF ma
tions is entitled 10 the support Of Amerf-
can citizens. Mr.. Bryan. who gave has
views in d statement last night, would
prescribe the Monroe doctrine, give the
United States a larger proportionate
voting power and allow each member
ration TO decide for itself whether it
would support the DEGREES OF the leagues
general council.
Mr.. Bryan SAID the league of nations
is the greatest step toward peace in
thousand years. He dictated his state
meat from his bed at the nome oI mis-
old nurse, Daniel Bride, 1T3b Columbia
road, where ne is recovering from an
Illness After ci.nng attention to the TACT
that the tinted states initiated the
campaign for the teas ue of nations anu
has gwen II vast amount OF the ma
cnlnefy necessary Tor Its creation, Mf.
i5IyAn said.
"Tha faults of the constitution are
found TO ne in its inaennIteneSs
rather than IN Things positiyeiy OBJ
jectionable. For instance, Ii IS not
stated with suiIcient ciearness that
the Monroe doctrine is preserved.
our narIon is not asking to be per-
nlttea 10 assist In the settlement oil
European disputes, and therefore 1t
ought not to be asked to give up
lis paramount influence in the west
ern hemisphere as a condition prece-
dent to ITS entry into the. league.
Then, too, it is not stated with
sufflcieut clearneSs that league
member is not required to become a
mandatory. 1t ought to be definitely
sta ed tnat a nation asked to be-
come a mandatory is at liberty to
accept or deCnne. Again, it snouid
be made clear that the league is not
TO interfere in the internal affairs
of the nations belonging TO the
league. The league is for the set
t!eiuent OF international disputes, not
for the adjustment of differences be-
IN cen a nation and its own pople.

This Point Important" F"

Another point that should be made
clear--and nothing can be more im-
portant than this-is that each ma
ton has right to decide for itself
whet ether it will undertake the things
advised by the general council. The
language of the constitution; while
not definite. would seem to indicate
that no nation is required to furnish
force to back up decision of the
council. But no doubt should be left
on this subject
This nation cannot afford to al
low council In which II has 30 small
a voice to carry it into war against
its will. Our people will have as much
sense when the time comes to act as
they have now and they will have
more light to guide them.
The constitution o. the league
would seem to imply the right of the
council to compel the declaration of
an economic boycott by the members
OF the league. This is not quite so
serious as the declaration of war, but
economic boycott is likely to develop
into a war and an economic boycott
the nations that want to declare it.
Dur interests may not be Identical
in this respect, and we ought 10 have
n right to say at the time whether
we would declare such a boycott.
Il venture to suggest that the scope
of the leagues work might well be
extended beyend what is now con-
tempfated. A substitute for war must
be able to deal with every situation
that can become a cause OF war. One
of the most fruitful causes of war
has been the necessity for expansion.
Growing nations feeling the neces-
sity for more room, have often gone
10 war on some clumsy pretext when
the real purpose has been to secure
territory for an increasing pepula-
tion."

GOMPERS OUTLINES
 HOPES OF LABOR

LONDON, Jan. 21.-(British Wire less Service) )-Ssmuel Campers. presi- dent Of the American Federation of Labor, in an interview with the Pail Mall Gazette. has outlined the hopes and perils of labor. He expressed much confidence in the restraining in fluence of trade unions on the workers and said there was need of sympathe- tic treatment and understanding of the mems aims on the part of employ CTS.
 ''The armies of democracy have overthrOwn the most powerful dynas- ties in the world" he said. ''The abso- lute autOcrats of but a little while ago are dead or in the dust. But there is no use saying to ill-clad, hungry peo- pie: You are free men, free women. We have been victorious in the war.
 With the war the cost of living has enormously increased but wages have been insufficiently advanced to meet this cost. It is in the adequacy of his surroundings that we discover the cause which induces the workman to degenerate into a bolshevist The or ganization of labor is protection against bolshevism.'

 Seeks Lost Bonds
CBy Review Leased yvirel


 SOUTH BEND, Ind. Jan. 21.-An efforts were concentrated tonight in search for clever thief who stole the S25O, 900 worth of Liberty bonds be- longing to the Studebaker corporation. John N. Hunter, postal inspector, and Henry J. Bridgeman. assistant cashier of the First and Old Detroit National bank, admitted today for the first time that the disappearance of the bonds was 6 theft.
 The chief development in the inves- tisation today was the report of John E. Ennis, Chicago handwriting ex- pert, that he found the signatures on all receipts for registered mail pack, ages reported by the local poStoffioe as delivered to the Studebaker offices on January to have been written by the same person.
 The registered mail received on that date was signed for by Eddie Snyder. the 15-year-Old offIce boy who, however, has convinced all concerned that he knew nothing of the disappear anve of the bond.

FRANCES SONS WIN
 UNDYING GLORY

No other nation has spilled it's blood more freely that democracy might live than has France. Her sons have sacri- feed more of blood and of treasure than those of any other nation. The world owes France a debt of gratitude not only for this. but for a perfect remedy for stomach. liver and intes- tinal disorders which, it is said, has saved thousands of lives the world over. The ingredients are imported and placed on sale in America under the name of Mayr's Wonderful Rem- cry by Geo. H. Mayr, for years a lead ing Chicago chemist. It is a simple. harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, includ- ing appendicitis. One dose will con vince or money refunded.

decided to table the matter of heavy truck purchase until the next meet ing.
 Bids On 9 light truck for the use of the city engineer were submitted. The Bisbee Auto company offered a Maxwell truck to the city at S9S5 while Frank Bledsoe offered a Ford at S622- 2-25 The latter bid was ac- cepted and the Ford truck ordered purchased.
 When the question of appointment of a committee to attend the good roads convention in Phoenix next Monday was preached by the mayor. J. J. Bowen was requested to explain briefly to the council some of the measures which would arise at that time. This Mir. Bowen did, saying the best road builders from the state and the United States would be present. He said the movement for a state bond issue had the entire sup port of the various counties and had been inaugurated at the request of President Wilson to take care of the condition of unemployment sure to arise otherwise, when large bodies of soldiers are brought back from France. He explained also in some detail the federal aid proposal
 Dr. \. c. BledsOe endorsed the good roads movement both as a ben eficiaI public work and as a method of taking care. of unemployed men. Upon his motion the council em- powered the mayor to name the street committee, Councilman Jovanovich. Rosik and City Engineer Halleck to go to the meeting with all expenses paid J. C. Ryan, county highway engineer, was added to the commit tee with the understanding that his expenses were not to be paid by the city, but that he was to be given ere dentials as member of the city's delegation. A fifth member will be named by the mayor

If a man fails to keep his COW penned up properly and allows her to go rambling around in the neighbor- hood, and if she eats the tenderly nourished and much cherished shrub bery around neighbor's premises, has the said neishbOr a right to take in hand his trusty shotgun loaded with birdshot and proceed to pepper the COW?

 It is presumed that the tangle which led to his being held for the extra period will be made straight and he will be released at once.

GRADES ARE SET FOR NEW PAVING

As the result of the introduction of an ordinance at the meeting of the city council last night, embody ing the result of the surveys made recently by City Engineer Halleck, the grades to which paving in Bisbee will conform in case it is decided that it shall be done, were adopted. The ordinance, after being read paragraph by paragraph. was adopted unani- mously by the council as an emerg ency measure and following legal pub licatiOn will become the law Portions of Naco road, O K street, Brewery avenue, Subway alley and Main street are included
 Following adoption of the ordinance there was considerable discussion of technicalities of paving. The result was that it became apparent that under no circumstances can the ordinance calling an election on the bonds be prepared and passed by the council before the second meeting in February. Specifications las to width of paving, height of curbs and other matters pertaining to the purely phys ical aspects Of the question must be prepared by the city engineer, while the finance committee of the council in consultation with the city attorney must decide upon the denomination of the bonds rate of interest, the term during which they will run and other details connected with the financial end of the affair All that has been settled is that the paving shall be laid according to certain grades, while 1t is presumed that about $150,0O0 will be required to do the work This is another detail to be threshed out.
 No decision was reached by the city in the matter of purchasing a new truck for city garbage collection. Two bids were offered, that or T. Olsen for a 21z-tOn Mack truck, $4442.3O, and the Bisbee Auto company for a Gar ford truck, 2-6On capacity, $416O, with $25 additional for drivers cab. MT. Olsen and MT. Bowen spoke in behalf of their trucks.
 In the midst of the discussion an apple of discord was tossed into the assemblage by O. E. Franklin, who submitted a blanket bid of s12S5 per month for collection and disposal of city garbage. As no bid had been called for, MT. Franklin's proposition could not be accepted. However, its submission opened as entirely new field for discussion and it was de cided to table the whole matter until the next meeting of the council, the first Tuesday in February. Between now and then City Attorney Sam H. Kyle and the street committee will talk over the details of calling for bids under set rules of collection which probably would alter the entire aspect of the affair After Mir. Frank ln's bid had been read, City Engineer Haileck said he had verbal bid from another man, whom he had told that it was useless to appear at this time, but the amount was almost identical with that Of Franklin's bid. It was

 The court probably will make his investigation today and while he made no direct statement, it was to be judged that while Mabny stood in danger or being fined for shooting the COW. under the statute prohibiting abuse or dumb animals. Lopez also may find himself facing a penalty for failure to keep his COW away from his neiShbOT's premises.
