PEACE TREATY
STATUS QUO
Presidents Statement on His
Position Has No Effect
on Situation

Washington. Dec. 15.-rhe White
ltousc statement apparently has no
erect in changing the treaty situa-
uon. Democratic leaders. tndorsing
the Presidents views. declared that
1t, did not preclude a Senate COM
promise and that compromise eff
tortS would proceed. Republican
leaders reiterated that the President
was responsible for the present
STATUS and must make the first move
towards solution. Senators hoping
10 XIII the treaty alone expressed
satisfaction.
The Presidents position, re-
garded as peculiarly significant in
view of the recent discussion in the
senate of compromise, was set
forth as follows.
1t was learned from the highest
authority at the executive offices to-
day that the hope of the Republican
readers of the Senate that the Presi-
dent would presently make some
move which will relieve the situ-
atlon with regard to the treaty is
entirely without foundation, he has
no compromise or concession of any
kind in mind. but intends so far as
ne is concerned that the Republican
leaders of the Senate shall con-
tinue 10 bear the undivided respon-
slol1ty for the fate of the treaty
ana the present condition of the
world in consequence of that fate"
On one point only, apparently,
were all Senate factions in harmony
namely, that decisive action on
the treaty probably would be de-
lerred until next month, after the
proposed holiday recess of Con-
gress' planned to end January 5.
senate debate, probably centered
ABOUT the White House statement, is
expected to be reopened tomorrow
with fresh vigor. The Democratic
compromise campaign also is to be
pressed, according to Senator Hitch

FOLLOW THE CHURCH.

In one Of the local churches Sunday
past years receipts and expenditures
was distributed to the congregation. In
announcing the publication of the
statement the minister said that he
considered it the duty Of officials OF
any cooperative organization to give
an account of finances so that the
members may know how their funds
are expended 1t is quite true that
the members Of this church could havt
gone to the treasurer and secured a
similar statement or the minister him
self could have consumed a few minu-
utcs of the service hour in reading the
statement and letting the members car
ry it in their heads, but the more efilc-
lent method Of printing it for pcrusal
at home was adopted. The position
that this church and other churches
have taken in this regard is the same
position that The Advertiser has al
ways take in another cooperative or
ganization-thc City Of Laurens. 1t
is the right OF the members Of any
joint enterprise to know of its Oiic-
ials how its moneys arc being en-
pended, whether wisely or unwisely,
honestly or dishonesty, efficiently or
inetiiciently and whether the enter
prise is showing a profit or going into

details of government reflection upon

fore offering for Office
The Importance Of publicity in city
affairs was stressed at the last election
OF officials in this city. It will be re-
mcmbcrcd that an unofficial statement
of the city's financial condition
during tho previous administration
was distributed by one OF the
candidates and that his statement
was attacked as misleading. In the all
sence Of an official statement, the claim
of economy CT the administration then
in office was not sustained at the polls.
incidentally. it may be said. that a
publication Of the audit made when
the present administration went into
Office would have proven or disprOvcn
the claims Of economy made by mem
bcrs Of the previous administration.
Again. it may be said. that in the ab-
scncc Of that report the public will
have no figures at the next election
for comparison in order to decide for
iSelf whether or not the present coun-
Gil is an economical one or whether
the city is breaking even or going into
debt
III financial statement is good for
a church it ought to be good for city.
