EPISCOPAL BISHOPS ASK MOTOR CARS ID
 AID IN THEIR WORK

A new market for motor cars and accessories is a possibility as a result of a recent request of several bishops of the Episcopal church for motorcycles and small automobiles for the use Of their clergy in covering the great dis tances between the half dozen parishes which is the usual allotment for priest in a western missionary district.
 Clergymen have long been individual purchasers of cars but now the board of missions of the Episcopal church is considering the wholesale purchase of motorcars and motorcycles and this item will be among hundreds included in the survey now being made for the church's nation wide campaign of ex pansion
 Bishop James Wise, of Kansas, pre- fers motorcycles for his priests. Sev- eral high powered motorcycles, Bishop Wise recently wrote the board of mis- sions, will enable him to provide a number of small Kansas towns within a sixty mile radius of Topeka, with services each Sunday, clergy being sent from Grace cathedral in Topeka In Texas, where there is so much room the Episcopal church has four di- oceses, motor cars have been requested by Bishop Clinton L. Quin of Houston and Archdeacon Garner of the diocese of north Texas at Amarillo. In locali- ties where a train a day or every other day is the rule, both believe the motor car will be potent factor in giving the people services weekly instead of once or twice a month as is now the case.
 South Dakota is another Episcopal diocese where motor cars will play a part in evangelizing the state. "A priest with a machine can do just four times the work out here as without

A STORY IN THREE CHAPTERS
Being a Review of the President S
 Course as to Open Covenants

NtrOm lne forllanu OTeSOn1anl
 CHAPTER (Point one, of the Fourteen Points, os President Wilson, January s, 191Sl Open covenants of peace, openly ar rived at, after which there shall be no private international understanding Of any kind, but diplomacy shall proceed always frankly and in the public view.
 CHAPTER II (F'rom a Paris dispatch to the Associ-
 ated Press, June '. 19l9)
 President Wilson, interviewed by 8 Paris newspaper Friday, declared his convection that the peace treaty handed tc the Germans violates none of his principles and conforms in its entirety with his fourteen points.
 CHAPTER III (Cablegram of President Wilson to Senator Hitchcock. June g, 191s) I have felt that it was largely unde- sirable officially to communicate the text of a document which is still in negotiation and subject to change. Any one who has possession of the official English text has what he is clearly not entitled to have or to com municata.
 CONCLUSION
 "An open covenant of peace openly arrived at" with Germany is the pri- vate business of President Wilson and his fellow delegates, and is none of the business of the United States senate. nor of the American people until it shall have been submitted to Germany, conveyed by them to the German peo- pie and signed by them.
