6. D. P. SENATOR URGES
WILSON'S LEAo oUE PLAN
McCumber Says Union of Nations
Would Strengthen Monroe Doc
trine and Preserve Peace.
BY Associated Press TO Every Evening

Washington. Jan Immediate es
| tablishment Of a league of nations, with
Germany as a member, was urged in the
Senate today by Senator McCumber OF
North Dakota, the first Republican mem
bcr OF the Senate to voice approval OF
President Wilson's proposal for such an
organization.
The first clause of compact for such a
league, Senator McCumber said, should
declare that each independent nation
of the world as it shall exist at the time
this compact shall be executed, has the
right to live and work out its own destiny.
free from any imposing danger of any
mighty military neighbor
with such a solemn compact of ma
tions executed by all the great nations of
the world, said the North Dakota Sena-
tor, ''the danger of any great war would
be pressed far into the realm of impos-
slbilitv. Does anybody believe that If
such great international agreement had
been In existence prior to 1919. even Ger
many, with her autocratic and ire
sponslble government, would have dared
break her compacts.
II want this bond and | want Ger
manv's signature TO this bond. She has
been the only country that has threat
last A. years. and to meet her threat every
other nation has had TO keep itself armed
Ia the teeth and weighted To the verge of
poverty to maintain mighty ornaments
And deeply as | hate kaiserism and
the abomlnable doctrines Of military Ger
MANY, | believe we should extend the
hand OF brotherhood and friendship TO
democratic Germany, when its people
have repudiated the stignas on real
German character and have steered their
country clear Of the worse malady, Boil
shevlsm."
Replying to the argument that estab-
hshment of league of nations would
weaken the Monroe doctrine, Senator
McCumber said the league would strength
en- 1t, as all nations would be bound to
respect the territorial integrity Of the
Central and South American republics,
whereas now only the United States
guarantees their independence and in
tegrity.
Discussing other phases Of the work Of
the peace conference, Senator McCumher
said the Congress at Versailles may find it
necessary TO return to Belgium all the
territory wrested from her in 1889 and
thus make the Rhine river the western
boundary OF Germany.
The allies he said, may deem this
necessary to place Germany in a position
where the wicked teachings Of her military
and political rulers which brought on
this war. cannot in the future influence
aay great portion Of Europe, and thus re-
endanger its peace and safety"

Weekly Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANKLIN DUANE, NJ. d.

1t can be said broadly that most human
dis begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose of the food you eat, trou-
bles begin to crop out in various forms.
indigestion and dyspepsia are the common
est forms, but thin, impure blood, head
aches, backaches, pimples blotches, dizzi-
ness, belching, coated tongue, weakness,
poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colds
and bronchitis are almost as common.
There is but one way to have good health,
and that is to put and keep your stomach
IN good order This is easy to do if you
take DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry. II is wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and is so safe to take, for it is
made of roots and herbs. DIR. Pierce of
Buffalo, N. Y, stands behind this stand
ard medicine, and it is good to know that
so distinguished a physician is proud to
have his name identified with It, When
you take Golden Medical Discovery, you
are getting the benefit of the experience of
doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still more, you get temper
ance medicine that contains not drop of
alcohol or narcotic of any kind. Long ago
DIR. Pierce combined certain valuable vege-
table ingredients without the use of alco-
hol-so that these remedies always have
been strictly temperance medicines.
If piles are torturing you. get and use
Pierce's Anodyne Pile Ointment The
quick relief it gives is hard to believe until
you try it. If constipated DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken while
using Anodype Pile Ointment. Few in
deed are the cases which these splendid
remedies will not relieve and usually over
come. They are so good that nearly every
drug store has them for sale.
