WILSON SUBMITS
 TREATY ID SENATE
PRESIDENTS MESSAGE sAYc THAT IT IS NECESSARY FOR
 PROTECTION.
IS NOT PART OF LEAGUE
Urges That Document Be Given Con- servation at Same Time League of Nations Pact Is
 Considered.

Washington. - President Wilson's message to the Senate accompanying the Franco-American treaty in part follows:
 Gentlemen of the Senate:
 take pleasure in laying before you a treaty with the republic of France, the object of which is to secure that republic of the immediate aid of the United States of America in case O. any unprovoked movement of aggres- sion against her on the part of Ger many. 1 earnestly hope that the treaty will meet with your cordial ap- proval and will receive an early raI.- fication at your hands, along with the treaty of peace with Germany Now that you have had an opportunity :o examine the great document I pre- sented to you two weeks ago, it seems opportune to lay before you this treaty which is meant to be in effect a part of it.
 It was signed on the same day with the treaty of peace and is intended as temporary supplement to it. It is believed that the treaty of peace with Germany itself provides adequate pro- lection to France against aggression from her recent enemy on the east; but the years immediately ahead of us contain many incalculable possi- bilities. The covenant of the League of Nations provides for military ae- ton for the protection of it's members only upon advice of the council of the league-advice given, it is to be pre- sumed, only upon deliberation and acted upon by each of the govern ments of the member states only if iii it's own judgment justifies such ac. tion. The object of the special treaty with France, which I now submit to you, is to provide for immediate mYr- tapy assistance to France by the Unit ed States in case of any unprovoked movement of aggression against her by Germany without waiting for the advice of the council of the League of Nations that such action will te taken. It is to be an arrangement. not in principle of the League of Ma tions, but under it.
 It is therefore expressly provided that this treaty shall be made the subject of consideration at the same time with the treaty of peace with Germany; that this special arrange ment shall not be independent of ths approval of the council of the league. and that this special provision for the safety of France shall remain in force only until, upon the application of one of the parties to it, the council of the league, acting, if necessary by a ma iority vote shall agree that the provi- sions of the covenant of the league afford her sufficient protection.

 sNhereas, several of the county chairman have requested an exten- sion of the time for the solicitation of funds in order that a thorough canvass of the respective counties and communities may be made; and,
 Whereas, the awakening or a commendable state pride Tn our achievements and successes during the 100 years of our evenfful history is a goal even more important than the raising of funds and the cam paign for both funds and exhibits fur nishes glorious opportunity for q liberal education in Arkansas state pride and idcalism.
 Therefore, l. Charles H. Brougn, governor of Arkansas, by virtue O. the power vested in me by the con stitution of the state, and acting in my official capacity. do hereby ex- tend the time for the raising of funds for the Arkansas centennial for two weeks, until Monday, August II, Jad during this period respectfully ana earnestly urge the citizenship of our state to respond Loyalty to the calls of their county centennial chairmen and Executive Committes for funds for a statewide celebration commen surate with the dignity or our fmpe rial commonwealth and the pride we justly feel in its eommendable achievements"

STATEMENT BY BURLESON
Says Sound Public Opinion Will D. termine How Trust Has Been Met and That He Was Content
 To Wait.

Washington. - Government control of telegraph and telephone properties has ended. Orders for their return to private owners were issued by Post. master General Burieson, as required under a resolution adopted by Con. gress and signed by President Wi. son.
 MT. Burleson, in a statement, said sound public opinion ultimately would determine "how this trust has been met" and that he was content to abide by the result Besides this re- ply to criticisms of his management of the wire companies, the postmas. ter general also took parting shot at the Postal Telegraph Company, most of the officers of which were removed several months ago because of what he termed interference with govern. ment management.
 The postmaster general said that with one notable exception the req. son for which is thoroughly under stood by those who have kept inform ed," every wire company had given him loyal cooperation.
 Under the resolution of Congress dt recting the return of the companies government fixed intrastate telephone rates are to remain in force for period of four months, unless sooner changed by state commissions, but no provision was made as to telegraph rates.
 Clarence H. Mackey, president of the Postal company, in urging Con gress to provide for speedy return q the properties, said his company could reduce rates 20 per cent and still earn a profit
 This statement was recalled in con. nection with the return of the prop critics and rate war between the telegraph companies is a possibility. Telegraph rates were increased ap- proximate1y 20 per cent last March to meet increased salaries to operators and other employees and rising costs of materials.
