Washington, June 1S.-Declaring op-
ponents Of the league of nations have
conducted a campaign of misrepresenta-
ton and distortion, Senator McCumber,
Of North Dakota, republican member OF
the foreign relations committee, told the
senate. today, that the league covenant
offered the only prospect of preventing
future and more terrible wars.
He upheld the league as entirely con-
sistent with the American constitution
and devoid of any ability to entangle
dangerously or curtail American inter
ests.

poN,T DECIDE roo SOON.

Weimar, June 1s.-(By the Associated
Pressl.-Phillipp Scheidemann, head OF
the German cabinet, in speaking to the
peace commission of the national as
sembly here. Tuesday. declared that the
allied reply to the German counter
proposals. without the complete text, did
not yet permit of final judgment and
that premature Judgment would be q
mistake.
There is nothing new In the genera
accusations made against the German
note with regret that the allies have
rejected the proposal for the establish
rrent of q neutral tribunal which alone
could impartially examine these accusa-
tions. It also is lamented that the whole
nation should be charged with the of
lenses and crimes alleged.
This charge is to constitute justiflcs-
tion for the eayy conditions which, ae-
cording to the second section Of the
covering note are to be imposed on the
German people.
No Hope of Cancellation.
"The justification put forward for
the projected settlement of affairs IN
the east permits of little hope that we
can reckon for substantial cancellations
in the detailed memorandum. That also
holds good for the remaining terrltor-
iai questions. many points of which and
also those regarding financial and eco
nomic questions referred to in the Gov
ering note are still obscure.
In view of the obscurities at pres
ent." the premier said, ''and the fact
that all the material is not yet to hand. a
decision cannot be taken, today
Tuesday. Only the financial and com
plete text of the enemy's answer can
furnish basis for deliberations be-
tween the government and the peace
committee.
The German nation. the national as
sembly and the government are con-
fronted with the most momentuous deci
sion. 1t is. therefore their duty, what
ever as individuals they may think of
the peace question, to approach this
decision with an entirely open mind. No
one must have any doubts that the ma
tion is confronted with very hard
times

BOMB TERROR EXPECTED
ON INDEPENDENCE DAY
BY CHIEF w. ]. FLYNN

Investigation has shown, Mr. Flynn
said. that two men were carrying bombs
to the home of Attorney General Pal
mer, which was damaged recently, and
that the premature explosion resulted
from the fact that the presence of two
persons on the street delayed the men
in placing the internal machine.
Many of the arrests now being made
in various cities .hruout the country
have no connection with recent bomb
outrages, Mr.. Flynn said. but were made
as precautionary measures.
The identity of the man killed has not
been completely established, Mr.. Flynn
said. 1t is known he nss in New York
