eign countries now number a score
and others will be sent by the
league, it was stated, especially to

GOOD BUSINESS
TO RATIFY PACT.
PRESIDENT SAYS
Addresses San Francisco Com
mercial Men on Peace Treaty
and League Covenant.

San Francisco, Sept. l8.-Accept
ance of the peace treaty as a good
business proposition was urged by
President Wilson today in an ad-
dress to San Francisco business
men.
He asserted that to refuse mem-
bership in the league of nations
would be to isolate the United
States and to build up a distrust
abroad which would be detrimental
alike to the nations political and
commercial interests.
Making his third and last speech
in San Francisco for the peace trea-
ty, Mr.. Wilson spoke at luncheon
given by the city's commercial or
ganizations and attended by more
than 1,500 men. who cheered the
president and Mrs. Wilson when
they entered and many times inter-
rupted the address to applaud.
Want Settled Peace"
What the world demanded, the
president said, was NOT only peace,
but "a settled peace" which would
give the opportunity for the indus
trial rehabilitation of the eastern
hemisphere. Should the United
States stand apart and decline to
give aid in guaranteeing such a
peace. he asserted, there would be a
reaction directly detrimental to
American influence and interests.
To take part in the world settle
ment. he declared, was the only
practical decision if the United
States was to play her proper role
in the future.
"The men who do not look for
ward now," he added, "are of no
further service to the country"
Problems Await Ratification.
Solution of many domestic ques-
tions, said the president, awaited
ratification OF the treaty. Until
there was peace, he declared, the
nation could not reorganize "a sin
gle element" of its economic status,
He added that there were many re-
forms necessary, because there must
be a Reconsideration" of the whole
economic structure of the country.
As long as uncertainty about
peace continued, he said, and the
business Of the country had no

MINERS WON'T UPHOLD treaty
TOTAL DEAD IN
HURRICANE MAY
REACH TO 500
Property Damage in Corpus
Christi Alone Estimated at
$2O,OOO,OOO.

Corpus Christi, Sept. lS.-Rapid
growth of the death list resulting
from the hurricane and tidal waves
that swept Corpus Christi and near
by points Sunday caused the belief
among the relief workers and local
officials that the total dead would
approximate 500 persons.
Much of the shore line of Corpus
Christi and Nueces bay has not
been penetrated by searchers, while
only a small proportion of the
wreckage in this city has been
moved. This and the continued abb
sence of manv persons unheard from
since the storm was responsible for
the rising estimate of fatalities.
A thorough survey of the demol-
ished section of the city by The AS
sociated Press correspondent
showed block after block of the
beach residential section without a
vestige of the former beautiful
homes that lined Corpus Christi bay.
Demolition of Buildings.
In the downtown district utter
demolition of some of the city's
most important industrial and pub
lie plants marked an area extending
for six blocks along the water front
and more than a block in width,
while beyond that block extending
back toward the bluff section every
commercial establishment was dam
aged over a corresponding area two
blocks wide.
: The tremendous property damage
is becoming daily more apparent
Prominent business men and other
trained observers predicted that
$2O,O00,000 would be a conservative
estimate of the monetary loss in
Corpus Christi alone, on which, it is
reliably stated, not more than $780,
600 insurance would be paid.
Many Other Bodies Buried.
1t was declared unofficially that
a number of bodies not included in
available figures had been buried
across Corpus Christi bay, near
Portland. ~ .
Bodies almost entirely those Of
Corpus Christi victims have been
found in the following places and
buried:

is temporarily in the background,

ing apparel, as a majority of them
are scantily clad. @
To every governor in the United
States and to the mayors of the most
important cities, kilograms appealing
for aid have been sent by the relief
committee and responses pour in
from every quarter promising every
assistance and in many cases for
warding money.

MINERS CONVENTION
Rejects RESOLUTION
Will Not Advocate Immediate
Ratification of Peace Pact
Without Any Amendments
Being Made.

Cleveland, Sept. lS.-(By The As
sociated Press. s.)-Efforts to enroll
the 100000 members of the United
Mine Workers of America as
supporters of the league of nations
and advocates of immediate ratifica-
ton of the peace treaty without
amendment failed when the miners
convention rejected resolution to
that effect, introduced by Secretary
Treasurer William Green. one of the
signers of the manifesto of 100 in
favor of the league, presented last
week to congress and supported by
the organization leaders in the con-
vention. Advocates of amendment
and reservation to clarity or limit
the functions of the league were nu-
merous; strongly anti-British and
anti-Japanese feeling was evident
among the delegates and the social
ist and radical wing of the conven-
ton threw its sstrength against the
resolution.
FteeuoHI OIL Judgment
Encouraged by this victory, the
out-and-out opponents of the treaty
introduced a substitute resolution to
place the convention on record
against the league as now consti-
tuted, but this. too, was voted down
and the subject matter tabled on the
argument that the issue was po1it-
;cal one, on which freedom of judg-
ment should be left to members of
the organization.
Other resolutions acted upon were
largely OF a political nature. Ore
Of these demanded the election of all
