Poindester Charges ''Big
Business Backs League
Senator Also Declares Puci fists
Are Supporting Both Copenons
and the Boisherik Increment

ROCHESTER, N. Y, July 4.-United
States Senator Miles Poindexter. OF
Washington, declared in speech at an
independence Day celebration Of the
Rochester Chamber Of Commerce here
to-day that international big busine IS
is backing the league of nations and
the international paciists a-e support
ing both the league of nations and Bol.
shevism"
The Senator devoted a considerable
part of his speech to an ANALYSIS Of the
league OF nations and it's effect upon
the independence Of the United States.
lie SAID N part:
This Fourth of July is the first in
l43 years when, instead of giving our
selves over wholly TO gratitude for our
liberties we actually find our people
engaged in discussion whether w
VIII unite again our fortunes with
Europe, from which we ware freed in
blood and tears. The most potent facto.
IN preserving the peace of the world
has been the power and independence
OF the United States; and yet we are
told IN the name Of peace we must sub
merge our independence into a greater
Oi4t6u 0ldLcS OIL LEe world
We are told that to secure the co
operation of nations to preserve peace
We must establish a league Of nations
and put under its control the 'majo~
forces Of mankind On the contrary
should the power to enforce peace b.
surrendered to a league Of nations.
with IS own distinct government, there
could be no such thing as the free CO
operation OF nations to enforce peace.
since the nations would have divested
themselves Of this power and conferred
IL upon the league of nations.
The Monroe Doctrine has done more
to preserve peace for 100 years than
all the leagues of nations ever formed
1t Us proposed now to abandon it in the
name OF the very peace which it has
preserved and 10 give to league or
nations, dominated b. Europe. COM
plete jurisdiction over every interna-
tional dispute N which America may
be involved.
ut is said the league will brin
peace to the world. The nations are
now cooperating together in Paris.
They have not brought peace to thu
world. War is going on in twenty
places in the world
1t is said that as litigants submit
to the decree of Z court, nations ought
to submit TO the DEGREES of league Of
nations This Is an admission that the
independence and sovereignty Of the
nation is to be surrendered If i
league, dominated by foreign powers, IS
to have such control over the Unitea
States, then the liberty we are cele-
hrating to-day viii be at an end
There is another menace to our lib
critics III the propaganda of Bolshe-
vism. 1t is put forward in the name
Of labor, but in fact would be utterly
destructive of labor. Bolshevism would
destroy industry and there would be no
labor. The end would be the destruc-
tlon Of civilization and reversion t.
barharism if not the determination OF
the race"

Complains of Methods of

Copyright. 1919, New York Tribune Inc)
PARIS, July 4.-Secretary Lansing
at yesterdays meeting OF the Council
of Foreign Ministers, strongly urged
that henceforth daily communicate
should be issued, giving. a fuller state
ment of developments than anything
Of this nature yet printed. After full.
discussion the proposal failed, the con
clusive>argument against it being that
the decisions reached by the foreign
ministers must necessarily be referred
to the heads of their respective gov
ernments, and therefore that q daily
communicate might lead to embarras-
sing complications.
One of the most pressing Of prob
lens before the council is that relating
to Hungarian affairs. Dissatisfaction on
with the methods of the conference in
dealing with Bella Kun is one Of the
principal reasons and departure from
Paris of M. Bratiano, the Rumanian
Premier, who also complains of the
general treatment Of Rumania through
out the peace negotiations, which he
says makes his further tenure of Of.
flee impossible. He is also strongly
opposed to the arrangement for the
ooeeoAoA VI Il oe1o4 anu icliSlouS MI
norities.
The Rumanians are anxious. too. to
have the conference take up the Bull
garian question. They declare that the
agitation N the Dobrudja is instigated
entirely by the Bulgarians and is en-
couraged by the inaction Of the con-
ference.
Another problem relates to Asia

FORT WAYNE, Ind, July 4.-secre-
tary Daniels, speaking at an Independ-
ence Day celebration here to-day de-
clared nation could no more with
draw into its shell and permit the fires
Of Bolshevism or anarchy to destroy
the world than a man could think Of
his own safety as he heard the cries
Of children in a burning building
across the street
"We entered this war highly re-
solved" he said, mot to cease until
we not only had won victory, but un il
we truly made this a war against war.
The nation realized, Mr.. Daniels
said, that the challenge of peace was
as imperative as was the challenge Of
war
We met the latter" he added. "as
if the nation had only one mind We
shall meet the perils of peace with
equal confidence and equal courage
In this hour of triumph" the Sec
retary said, our minds are still ex-
ulting over the dazzling position we have
leaped to almost overnight as leader
of the world and the acknowledged
counsellor of the ancient governments
OF the Old World" There were sober
ing possibilities which went with
the new position, he added, and no bet
ter time to consider them.
If we would still lead to new and
great Victories" Mr.. Daniels declared :;
IF we would still stride at the fore
front Of the worlds great march; if
we would still be the wise and right
counsellor of nations, we must 90 for
ward, not like some monstrous vor

went forward, strong but not gloryinp

toward all evil. Let us learn from the
awful lesson of this war the irresist
lble advantage Of united effort. 1t;

war and how to win in peace"

declared the Senator.

America must have a unified people,
with a common language. a common re-

boon of American citizenship. The ma
ton must also rid itself. he added. Of

Senator Jones denounced those who
advocate the overthrow of government
by force. Ample means existed in the
country, he said, for the people to ex-
press their VIII. and the only limit
upon discussion or argument which he
.Eought should be placed in time of
peace would be against advocacy of
the overthrow OF government or a
change II it by force and violence"
