PROHIBITION
ENFORCEMENT
Senate Bill Headed for Conference
Committee Which Will Try to
Compose Differences in
Measure.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-The pro
hibition enforcement bill passed by the
senate late yesterday. was headed
today for conference committee, which
will try to compose the differences be
tween the house and senate and send
the measure to the president for his
signature.
Since the senate in adopting the
measure made only one minor amend
ment to the house bill, a speedy agree
ment over the measure, which covers
both wartime and constitutional pro,
hibition, is looked for.
This means that unless the bill Is
vetoed by the president, 2.75 percent
beer and other so-called light bever-
ages now on sale in some parts of the
country will be under a ban and those
who sell them will face a fine and Jail
sentence.
The most important amendment
adopted by the senate was one making
the Panama canal zone dry. An at
tempt by Senator Shields, Tennessee,
to knock out the war time enforce
ment section failed.

| Of the great men wha are represent.
ing the peoples OF Europe.
when these principles were writ
ten into this treaty they were written
there by common consent and COM
mon conviction, but 1t remains true
nevertheless my fellow citizens, that
principles are written into that treaty
which were never written into any
great international understanding be-
fore and that they have their natural
birth and origin in this dear country
to which We have devoted our life and
,, service. (applause). And If you will
bear with me l will remind you Of
some Of the things that we have long
desired and which are at last accomp-
lished in this treaty. / think that
can say that one of the things that
America has had most at heart
throughout her existence has been
that there should be substituted for
the brutal processes Of war the friend
lily processes of consultation and arbi-
tration, (applause), and that Is done
in the covenant Of the league Of ma
tions. l am very anxious that my fell
low citizens should realize that that
is the chief topic of the covenant of
the league Of nations. The greater
part of its provisions, the whole in
tent and purpose of the document are
expressed in provisions by which all
the member states agree that they
will never go to war without first
having done one or the other of two
things, either submitted the matter in
controversy to arbitration, in which
case they agree to abide by the ver-
dict, or submitting it to discussion in
the council Of the league Of nations
and for that purpose they consent to
allow six months for the discussion
and whether they like the opinion ex.
pressed or not that they will not go
to war for three months after that
opinion has been expressed, so that
you have, whether you get arbitration
or not, nine months discussions and |
want to remind that is the central
principle of some thirty treaties en-
tered into between the United States
of America and some thirty other
sovereign nations, all Of which are
confirmed by the senate of the United
States. (applause).
"We have such an agreement with
France, we have such an agreement
with Great Britain, we have such an
agreement with practically every
great nation except Germany which
refused TO enter INTO SuCn an dSfee-
ment because, because fellow citizens,
Germany knew that she intended
something that didn't bear discussion
and that if she had submitted the pur-
pose which led to this war to so much
as one months discussion, she never
would have dared go into the enter
prise against mankind, which she fin
ally did go into and therefore | say
that this principle of discussion is the
principle already adopted by Ameri-
ca and what is the compulsion to do
this? The compulsion is this, that it
any member state violates that pro-
mise to submit either to arbitration
or discussion, it is thereby ipso facto
deemed to have committed an act of
war against all the rest.
"Then you will ask, do we at once

lnents who view the document with
"jaundice eyes," who are against 1t
because they have some private
political purpose" will "at last De
gibbeted and they win regret the
gibbet is so high" President wilson
told a big crowd here today.
He reiterated that it was a case OF
"put up or shut up" that the oppo
sition would have to produce some
thing better than the league OF ma
tions, or step aside.
Mere negation, without Offering
anything constructive to replace the
treaty, is bolshesism, he asserted
He said he respected tho men who
honestly although ignorantfy op
posed the treaty, but denounced
those who are against 1t for political
reasons.
The Philippine islands, he said,
would get their independence under
the league. The league, he declared,
would simplify that problem.
There was great applause when
the president proclaimed that
through the treaty "the American
spirit had made conquest of the
world"
"The war was won by the Amerf-
can spirit" he cried.
There was a wild shout from the
crowd.
If the treaty is beaten, those re-
sponsible will have "a lifelong reck-
oning with the fighting forces Of the
United States"
The cause he is fighting for fs
greater than the senate or the gov
ernment," and he intends, "in office
and out, to fight 1t as long as / live"

"It is very inspiring to me to stand
in the presence of SO great company

privilege of performing the duty that

is to report to my fellow citizens con.

become more necessary to report, be
cause so many people, who are talking
about it, don't understand what it
was.

the things that made it great was
that it was penetrated throughout
with the principles to which America
has devoted her life. Let me hasten
to say that one of the most delightful
circumstances of the work on the

County Health Officer ]. NJ. Bulla
condemned the Abingdon township
school building Wednesday as being
unfit for school purposes, and set May
1. 1920 as the latest date the school
can be used.
The Abingdon school was built in

in the county. 1t is two story struc-
ture, and is in very bad condition,
according to the health officer. For
several years the township has used
the second floor of the building but
owing to the danger of collapse with
weight on the second floor, this part
of the building was condemned and
cannot be used during the next term
The first floor which has not been
used heretofore, will be cleaned and
painted, and used as temporary
school next winter Plans will be
made for the erection of a new build
ing next summer.
