SENATOR KING ANTI-LEAGUER.
Senator King of Utah, Democrat, de-
clared that III Japan insists upon rad
ical equality In immigration 1t simply
means that the United States or Japan
will not be signatories to the peace
pact. In my opinion American labor
will never submit to the indiscriminate
admission Of Standardization. Chi
nese and Japanese. Japan cannot be
blamed for insistence, because this
question closely touches her honor. The
whole situation clearly indicates the
urgent necessity for making peace i'm
mediately and leaving for later deter
mination the decision of forming some
international league to avert war. This
would not necessarily be q league Of
nations, as we have come to under
stand the term. But there should be
provided an international tribunal Of
arbitration to decide international dis
putes"
King today announced that until the
league constitution is amended he Will
vote against 1t.
MUST BE MODIFIED.
II was a pioneer in the movement
for league" said King.
More than 10 years ago toured my
state, organizing clubs favoring world
organization to insure peace. Then, as
now, the people were for 1t. They say
| IL there was a panacea for war they
wanted 1t. But with this concrete pro-
| posal before them, they are analysing
it and finding SO much in 1t that Is
dangerous and Objectionable. that they
will insist on its modification. Unless
it is modified in several important par
ticulars l cannot vote for it."
Senator Jones. Washington, en-
phatically declared that the American
worker will not agree to compac
opening the doors to Japanese immi
grafton.
"As l read the remarks Of Viscoun

Make the Farm Home Modern

The weIl-to-do farmer who has
a home lacking any of the ordi-
nary comforts and convenienceS
enjoyed by the store clerk of the
city (who only makes about one
tenth to one-third as much an
nuaIIy) should be ashamed of
himself. The farm home should
be the elimination of all his in
tereSt, not anew barn, a new SilO,
or a pedigreed breed Of pigs. A
progressive farmer using modern
agricultural methods in the field
but holding on TO the bare equip
ment of home life that his grand
father used is a traitor to his
wife and family.
The annual exodus Of boys and
girls from the country to The city.
with its exchange of healthy, sane
rural methods of living for the
crowded rush of city industry. is
a sad commentary upon The lack
of modern convenienceS in the
farm home. Individual electric
lighting systems are SO far super
ior to the antequated and danger
Gus kerosene lamp as only to be
absent because of direct poverty.
Unsanitary sources of water and
the disposal of refuse should new
Ter be COuntenanced in the COM
munity where a few dollars will
install a system removing the
causes of most of the sickness in
the family.
A prominent federal rural spec
ialiSt once said that no one thing
would mean so much for the hap
pineSs of the women on the farm
as the installation of a water Sys-
tenn thus saving thousands of
steps and lifting a heavy burden
and other purposes.
Make the farm home modern in
its equipment. Surround it with
trees, provide it with electric
lights, telephone, water sanitary
closets, electric fans, and other
modern comforts and you'll be
surprised how pleasant and hap
Ply such a renewal of life will be.

Who Won the War?


1t is as hard to secure salts
factory answer to this question
as it is to find the age of Ann.
Every nation has its Jealous pat
riots, anxious to carry off the ba-
con. Most of these speakers ar
que enthusiastically upon their
local lots, but occasionally a well
known parsonage takes shot at
the query, with more or less sue
cess.
Field Marshal Haig reminds
the English people, in a speech at
Newcastle, that lit was the Brit
iSh Empire that won this war"
He admits that the British talk a
great deal about our allies" and
that III was necessary to do so to
buck them all we could while the
fighting was going on" He thinks
it time now to hog the credit be-
fore some other nation gets it.
The Field Marshal is modest.
No one would deny great SER
vice to the British army, especial
ly in the hard battle of the SOM
me, when the French held off,
but at the same time twas the
French army "in great strength"
which moved to Succor the hard
pressed British when the German
thunderbolt came in 1918. This
army of the French would have
been tied down in the trenches to
the south, if the American SOL
dierS had not arrived in great
number to relieve them.
Modestly two American diviS-
ions share credit with the British
empire in breaking through the
Hindenburg line, and when the
armiStiCe ended the struggle the
men from America held a longer
battle front than the armies of the
Empire. Without Great Britain
Framework have lost the war,
but even with her, Germany
would have won the war, but for
the strength of the United States.
Admiral Sims states that the
submarines were winning the war
when the American naval forces
reached European waters, and
that the allies faced certain defeat
by November, 1917, without great
aid from the ships of the United
States. On the land, the events
of the spring of 1918 prove that
France and Great Britain, unaid-
ed on land, would have gone into
defeat.
However, history in its course,
will give credit where it is due.
Glory to all nations will be grant
is still enough for all.
France deserves vcedit, Great
Britain deserves hers, and the
United States also deserves some
credit. Let us not quarrel over
the distribution of credit. He
who reads and reckons can I'M
derstand the part played by all
nations in the war.
