FARM PAPERS FAVOR LEAGUE

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE verdict of
the agricultural press overwhelmingly
favors ratification of the League of Ma
tions Covenant in it's present form,
judging from the results of canvass
announced today by Prof. w. J. Camp
bell, Rural Extention Secretary of the
League to Enforce Peace.
Editors and publishers of sixty six
farm papers including nearly every
prominent publication of this kind in
the country, answered a questionable
recently sent out by the League. Sixty
two of these unqualifiedly favored rati
fication of the Covenant as it stands
Two were for ratification conditioned
upon on clearer understanding of the
Covenants meaning. One was non
committal; and only one absolutely
opposed.

Judge Ben. Lindsey of Denver came
home from France with some direct in
formation as to the spirit of the soldiers
toward the Salvation Army. He wrote
at length, but here are few pertinent
paragraphs:
One soldier told me: "You see,
Judge, the good old Salvation Army is
the real thing! They don't put on any
airs. There isn't any fub dub about
'em and you don't see their mugs in the
fancy magazines much. Why, you
would never see one OF them in Paris
around the hotels. Good Lord, you d
never know they existed, Judge, unless
you came right up here as close to the
front lines as the colonel will let you -
President Roosevelt said: ''At last
it has won it's way to recognition, and
there are few serious thinkers nowadays
who do not recognize in The Salvation
Army an invaluable social asset. force
for good which works effectively in
those dark regions where, save for this
force, only evil is powerful
President Wilson writes: II sincere
ly wish God sped to any organization
which, like The Salvation Army, has as
it's main object the betterment of hu-
manity and the making of bad citizens
into good Ones"
"When left France, just few days
ago-as that actual few weeks now
seems-I went over to call on Captain
Archie Roosevelt, one of the four brave
sons Of the man the American soldiers
asked me most about. And Archie
looked SO fine and yet so pale from the
long weeks of suffering in the hospital
I felt I might be wearing on his strength
to talk too long, and when I was about
to leave a light came in his fine face
and he fairly shouted to me, You tell
Dad when you see him that the first
chance he gets to be sure aud say good
word for the Salvation Army. They
are the real thing over here, Judgep
"And after hearing Archie relate the
tales Of their .heroism, as he had per-
sonally witnessed it with our dead and
dying and wounded and hungry boys
you couldn't help but take off your hat
and shout for The Salvation Army, and
what is more important, go down in
your purse and dig up all you've got to
spare for them. The other war char
tiles are all right, but the words of the
boys everywhere over there ring in my
ears over here: Whatever you do, don't
forget The Salvation ARMY"

Unfortunate is he who at this most critical period in the

The chief objection to the resolution of Senator Knox

Every of these considerations is bad enough but

Peace negotiations with Germany have been made difficult
from the first by doubts the stability and sincerity of its

In Russia we have not been able to establish relations

When the United States Senate asked to elbow it's way

block final agreement it proposed that shall figure

Mr. Knox has many explanations of his proposition, but
