Denying that disarmament Is to be
brought about through the League Of

speech in the Senate also asserted
that unless CONSUMPTION were enforced
it would be utterly impossible to car
ry out article Y and certain other
phases Of the League covenant
These two principles-the estab-
lishment ,of the freedom of the seas
and the elimination OF conscription-
were the two great principles which
were promised to the people Of
the world by the men who controlled
and shaped affairs at Versailles before
they we mt there. said Senator Borah.
And the very factthat both Of these
things. the very navalism and militar-
ism, were eliminated rejected out Of
hand. must be satisfactory proof to
anyreflecting man that, whatever
came to the conclusion that disarma-
ment was not practical. That is what
the people should be told that they
have not provided for disarmament
because they found that it was i'm
practicable to do So 1t is a system OF
instrumentation, seldom eXcelled. TO
tell the people after these broken
promises that disarmament is to fol-

Leave for Chicago

Martin Holtan OF the Holtau Aer-
camille Company leaves Saturday ev
eging for Chicago. where he will at
tend the Semi-Annual Buying Conven-
ton of Retailers Commercial Un-
ion, which takes place at the Palmer
House. commencing Monday morning,
July 21st.
The r. C. L. system of buying mer-
chandise has developed until it places
the Holtan Mercantile Company as
we'll as the other seven hundred men,
bers of this large organization on an
equal footing with the largest buy
ers in the country.
A number of their buyers spend
several weeks in the eastern manufac-
turing centers. placing contracts and
making arrangements for the conven-
ton. Each individual merchant will
then make his own selection as to
sizes, styles. quantities, ETC.. at the
convention and these combined orders
are turned over to the manufacturer
70 him to fill. This gives him an
opportunity to dispose of all or large
part of his seasons output without
host of travelling men with their rail-
road fare and expenses, besides the
Office force required to handle the
business in that manner. This not
only secures for store like Holtan
Mercantile Company the net First
Cost Of the merchandise and enables
them to meet competition with Mail
Order or other large coucerns, but
it also places them in contact with
lines of goods that would otherwise
not beseen outside of. the larger cities.

tv-five men were enlisted in this dis
trict.
IT is not to be wondered that so
