COMING HOME.

President Wilson is now on his
return from Paris and Versailles. The
good ship George Washington, sailed
on the goth.
Mr.. Wilson must feel peculiarly
and justly proud of tie great accom-
plismmcnt in which he took such an
important part. That he has now
great honors for himself and for the
great people he represented, goes with
out saying. The signing of the peace
treaty, as has been said, marked "the
new years day of a changed world"
For months the eyes of the nations
have been turned to Versailles. With
Presidnt Wilson's return al eyes and
interest will be turned to Washing
ton.
His work is not furnished. He has a
battle before him in his own country,
among his own people. What has
proven so far acceptable to the rest of
the world does not seem to be accpt-
able to certain of these same home
people. And so, Mr.. Wilson must be-
gin another fight for freedom. He
Will, in person, present the claims of
the League of Nations TO the people
of the United States, for their ac-
ceptance OF rejection. 1t is a safe
guess that the people of this great
and leading nation will ratify the
action of their representatives and
colaborers in the historic and epoch
making world peace convention at
Versailles. And this will be done I'M

The formal act of signing the

1t is one of the greatest events in

Crown Prince Ferdinand, which fur

PROCLAMATION BY PRESIDENT

Washington, June 2S.-Nearly five
years after the proud and lustful
German monarchy started out to con-
quer the world its beaten people to-
day signed the allied bill of indcbt-
cdness and guilt. Word of the sign
ing, flashed to America. was foil

House. 1t follows:
My fellow countrymen:
Inc treaty OF peace has been
signed. If it is ratified and acted
upon in full and sincere execution
of it's teens, it will furnish the
starter for new order of affairs in
the world. 1t is severe treaty in
the duties and penalties it imposes
upon Germany, but it is severe onlf
because the great wrongs done by
Germany are to be righted and re-
paired; it imposes nothing that Ger
many cannot do; and she can re-
gain her rightful standing in the
world by prompt and honorable full
filment Of its terms.
| And it is much more than n
treaty Of peace with Germany. 1t
liberates great peoples who never be-
tore have been able to find the way
! TO lberty 1t ends, once for all, an
ola and lntolerable order under which
snail groups of selfish men could use
the people of great empires to serve
their own ambitions for poyer and
domination.
1t associates the free governments
OF the world in permanent league
IN winch they are pledged to use
their united power to maintain peace
by maintaining right and justice.
It makes international law a
reality, supported by imperative

AMERICA IN THE WAR
(Ncw York Timos)

NANcW 1OTk Times.
Statistical summaries are not usu-
ally absorbing, but the American
people will find the War Depart
ment's book dealing with Americas
part In the great European conflict
intensely interesting. Such wonderful
figures of achievement wer never
complied before. for no other nation
ever accomplished as much i'm so
short time. The United States was
IN the war about twcnty-onc months.
IL had made the slightest prepare
tons for the part it was to play, and
they were Legislative for the most
part. Il looking into the future. Per
haps the passive or waiting attitude
was not defensible, but what giant
strndcs were made as soon as the toe
SIN mad runG for war, and what Il
magnificent finish was made.
The figures march as if to the
strains of the hymns of patriotism.
More than 100000 soldiers were
carried to France in spite of the per-
ilouS enemy submarine campaign, and
no less than 100000 went into bat
tie to save our allies from defeat.
Altogether 100000 men were or
ganized and trained to fight i'm
France. The strength of the navy,
Marine Corps, and other branches
was raised to 100000, so that Amer
ica was giving nearly 5000 900 men
to the cause. In the Mouse Argonne
offensive PerShing comm" llnd POO
600 men, compared with which the
largest armies engaged in the civil
war seem puny. In the war $4,000
Americans were lost in battle, 236 900
were wounded, and 81 GOO died of
disease. The number of officers com
missioned i'll the army was 100000,
an increase of l9l 900 over the COM
plcmcnt of the regular army ut the
beginning of the war.
1t is to be noted that the United
States had only begun to register its
strength when the conflict closed
for the sum of the draft was d.
23i,02l. Without uncomfortable strain
the country could have put 10000
900 into the field. and transported
them across the Atlantic if necessary
In single month 100000 men were
shipped to France. In the nineteen
months that the American forces
were in action $500 600 tons of sup
plies were sent to that country The
cargo fleet, by the way, was almost
all American. British ships carried
about half of our soldiers.
When it comes to the figures OF
the Quartcrmastcr's and Commiss-
ariat branches, when those dealing
with the job of the engineers in
France are arrayed. the effect is be.
wildcring. The number of men is
many times multiplied to present the
total of blankets, uniforms, shoes
and other articles they required, 70,
it was n violent and wasteful war
Cost could not be considered The
engineers built cighty-thrce new ship
berths in France and laid 1000 miles
of standard and 538 miles of narrow
gauge railroads. The Signal Corps
strung 100000 miles of telephone
wires, and 10000 motor trucke were
used. No less than 226 557 machine
Guns were manufactured, and $780,
600 600 rounds of rifle ammunition
produced. And the cost of all was
prodigious, $50 900 900 900. cor near
ly enough to nav the entire cost of
running the United States Govern
ment from 1871 up to the outbreak
of the European war"

WHAT HAPPENED IN EUROPE

Mr.. Frank A. Vanderbilt. the New
York banker, has recently returned
from Europe, where he was sent To
investigate the conditions of the
countries that have been in the war
for the past five years. The con
ciusion he reaches in Il book recently
published are astounding, both from
political and financial standpoint. The
conditions he pictures are almost I'M
believable. 1t is very evident to a
reader of his book that there is no
hope in sight for that country.
Nothing that can be done can sup
ply the belligerent nations with food
from their own resources. Neither
can they pay for what others must
supply them or they perish. If they
raised the food, or if it was given to
them, they could not distribute il.
Europe faces famine which it has
not known since antiquity, and whites
lace death such as only the colorcd
races have known for centuries. Mil
lions are supported by tax money con-
trlbuted by several countries which
cannot bear the strain and remain
solvent" What dreadful picture
this New York banker draws of the
situation in Europe. What an awful
calamity that has been spared this
countryside United States of Amer
lea, where the horn of plenty is RUM
ing over, unheard of crops of food
stuffs, Unprecedented bank deposits,
and work for all who will.
Another investigator who recently
returned from Europe told of con-
aitions IN Serbia, tn innocent little
buffer nation that has almost been
eNtermlnated by Austria. The writer
says that there is no possible hone
oil tins country or Belgium cominp

cause of the lack of man power. the
