All of these things so well spoken by Senator Lodge nearly three years ago are just as true today. His strik- ing sentence, the united forces of the nations must be put behind the cause of peace and law is the heart of the whole matter. It implies everything that the advocates of T League of Nations urge. It implies the existence of a body of intArna,- tionaI law and of an authoritative tribunal to interpret and apply it.
 The difficulties that Senator Lodge saw in 1916 he did not fear. His words inspire men of vision to face and surmount them. They were fine, courageous words. We wish ne would speak them now. when the half-hearted, the timorous and the blind among his colleagues need them. He might well add to what he said three years ago, that the diff faculties. although still many, are not so great as then. Three of them have been administrative kaisers and I czar. And with them has gone the concrete expression of Tnilitarism, en- bodied in the three autocracies. This was the biggest difficulty of all.
 Surely we can take hope and de- rive wisdom from the words of Lodge in 1916-and find in them the best answer to the Lodge of today.

LODGE FORMERLY ARDENT
 FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Now That Wilson Makes the League Possible He De- nounces It In Comprehensive Terms-What
 Lodge Said in 1916.

Washington, D. C.-SeEator Lodge of Massac chusetts, who is now one of the lustiest of Republican critics and opponents of a League of Nations urged by President Wilson, was only 8. little more than two years ago an eloquent advocate of a similar if not identical plan. He now denounces what he then espoused-but ot course, President Wilson has mean time given the plan life and vigor and Q promise of adoption at the Peace Conference. That makes all the diff ference in the world-to a partisan like MT. Lodge.
 From the Hartford (Conn.) Times of recent date is reproduced below . statement originally published in the Chicago Evening Post. It is an in teresting comment, as it were, on Sen ator Lodge of 1919 by Senator Lodge of 1916. The article follows:

 Employers who paid salaries to em- ployes temporarily in government ser vice may deduct these payments in making out tax returns, regarding them as business expenses. This ap- plies to sums paid soldiers or sailors and men serving the government at a dollar year.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
Views of Senator Lodge in 1916-The
 Best Answer to Lodge of 1919.

The other day we ran across the proceedings of the first annual con- vention of the League to Enforce Peace. It was held on May 26 and 27, 1916, in the Capital City.
 Running down the contents table our eye was caught by the name of Henry Cabot Lodge. Now, Senator Lodge not long since expressed at some length his opposition to the League of Nations idea, that found it's first strong advocacy in America through the organization of the League to Enforce Peace and that has become one of the great world issues to be considered at the Versailles conference.
 Hence we turned curiously to the pages on which appeared the 1916 speech of Senator Lodge. We found -hese rather interesting and signifi ant passages in the Senator's e1o 'uent utterances:
 T know how quickly we shall he ct with the statement that this is
 dangerous question which you are
 Itting into your agreement; that 20
 ttion can submit to the judgment

of other nations, and we must be careful at the beginning not to at tempt too much. l know the diffl- culties which arise when we speak of anything which seems to involve an alliance. But I do not believe that when Washington warned us against entangling alliances he meant for one moment that we should not join with other civilized nations of the world if method could be found to di- minish war and encourage peace. Tt was year ago that in deliver ing the chanceIIor's address at Union College, I made an argument on this theory-that if we were to prom ote international peace at the close of the present terrible war, if we were 10 restore international law as it must be restored, we must find some way in which the united forces of the na- tions must be put behind the cause of peace and law. I said then that my hearers might think that 1T was picturing a Utopia. but it is in the search for Utopias that great discov- cries have been made. Not failure, but low aim is crime
 This league certainly has the highest of all aims for the benefit Of humanity, and because the pathway Is sown with difficulties is no reason that we should turn from it. It .ie the vision of a perhaps impossible perfection that has led humanit, across the centuries. If our aspira- uops are for that which is great anG beautiful and good and beneffcent to humanity, even when we do nor achieve our end, even if the results are little, we can, at least remember Arnold's lines:
 Charge, then, and be dumb,
 Let the victors, when they come,
 When the forts of folly fall,
 Find your body at the wall"
 Earlier in his speech Senator Lodge declared:
 The limit of voluntary arbitration has, think, been reached think the next step is that which thi league proposes, and that is to pu force behind International peace. W may not solve it in that way. but we cannot solve it in that way, 1t ca. be solved in no other.-

SUFFRAGISTS
 WON'T PAY FINES

| Boston. Feb. 27.---The ten members of the National Woman's party who remain in the Suffolk county jail be- cause of failure to pay fines of $5 each on account of a demonstration on the line of the President Wilson parade Monday, had apparently settled today into serving out their ten day sen tences. They prepared formal state ments that they would not pay their fines, or allow any other person to pay them. This attitude was taken as means of avoiding forced release such as that which came last night to three of their fellow prisoners when a man unknown to them paid their fines. All the women ate the regular
 i9i1 fare today and were allowed to do as the.- pleased in their cells, instead of being assigned to labor.

Norwalk, Feb. PA shooting, said to be the outgrowth of a fight at Bay side, L. l., two months ago, occurred near here last night, when Frank Smith, 20 years old, caretaker of the Hopewell farm for Homeless Boys, was wounded. According to Smith, James Mackaye, 26 years old, of Bay side, fired the shot with Smiths re- volyer and then telephoned to Smiths sister, saying that Smith had acidentally shot himself Mackay was accompanied by Philip Earring ton, also of Bayside, and they fled after the shooting.
