SEES
LEAGUE REAL
WORLD NEED

CONTINUED from Page one)
ticIe XXI of the covenant of the
League of Nations. is that the
United States of America does not
relinquish it's traditional attitude
toward purely American questions,
and is not required by said cove
nant to submit its policies regard
ing questions which it deems to be
purely American questions to the
League of Nations or any of its
agencies, and that the United
States of America, may oppose and
prevent any acquisition by any
non-American power by conquest,
purchase or in any other manner of
any territory, possession or con-
troll in the western hemisphere.
Reserve Rights In Article 10.
Fourth-That the meaning of ar
ticle X of the covenant of the
League of Nations is that the mem
bers of the league are not under
any obligation to act in pursuance
of said article except as they may
decide to act upon the advice of the
council of the league. The United
States assumes no obligation under
said article TO undertake any mill
tary expedition, or to employ it's
armed forces on land or sea, un-
less such action is authorized by
the congress of the United States
of America, which has exclusive
authority to declare war or
to determine for the United
States of America, whether there is
any obligation on its part under
said article and the means or ac-
ton by which any such obligation
shall be fulfilled.
Says Clarifying Needed.
In his detailed explanation of
reservations he thought necessary,
MIR. Hughes said that different con-
struetion had been placed upon ar
ticle I of the covenant, regarding
the right of withdrawal from the
league, and he thought some clari-
flying statement necessary.
In article XIV, he said the clause
as to domestic matters, such as
immigration or tariff, is ambigu-
GUS
Advocates of the covenant urged
that article XXI recognizes and
preserves the Monroe doctrine.
But" said Mr.. Hughes, ''the de-
scriptiFe phrase is inaccurate and
the meaning of the article is far
from clear" He said he fully en-
dorsed Mr.. Roots proposed state
ment of reservation and under
standing upon this point.
Sees Clause a Trouble Breeder.
81 agree with Mr.. Root that it
would be desirable to eliminate ar
tiele X with its guaranty to pre-
serve against external aggression
the territorial integrity of all
members of the league and I still
think that article X is a trouble
breeder and not a peace maker.
IF we are entering upon a new
world order of democracies the in
evitable consequences should be
recognized. Democraeies can not

BURGLARS Have
POOR PICKINGS
). so THEY LAUGH
Providers Break in Safe, Find Moth
ing but Accounts, Then Place
Lemon in Vault.

Get the idea out of your head
that the burglars who prowl places
in Rock Island have no sense of
humoF.
They have.
Business is so good, in fact, that
when they strike a place where
"piekings is no good" they can af-
ford to laugh about it and leave
evidence of the fact that they can
be funny if they want to.
Take the burglary at Schroeder
Bros meat market, and grocery
store at 305 Twentieth street last
night. After the providers gained
entrance to the place, they hogan
working on the safe. First thing
you know. they had the iron door
swinging open.
Ha, hal
The joke was on them. They
found nothing in the safe but &C
counts. They scattered the &C
counts all over the place.
= OF course, there's not much of a
joke to that.
Third Recently.
But when the proprietors opened
up this morning, they looked in the
safe and found a lemon.
This is the third burglary in the
block within a few days, with per
haps more to follow.

Dry Season Killed
 Salmon in Alaska

Juneau, Alaska, Nov. 8.-Many persons engaged in the salmon fish cries for years attribute the failure of Alaska's salmon run this year to the dry season in 1915. In that sea son the streams were so dry that salmon could not ascend.
 According to the theory that sal mon return to fresh water when four years of age to spawn and die, this years short run of the fish would be explained.
 Others, however. take more pes simistic view. F, P Kendall, general manager of one of the country's lar:,- est can companies, asserts Alaskan waters are being fished out. To save the salmon industry, he believes, the streams must be immediately cleaned out and the natural spawning ground protected.
 MT Kendall, advocating Q meeting this winter at Seattle between the canners and representative Alaska citizens, said he was confident that every canner of the north would CO., operate.

ROlsheyist RuSe
 Costly to British

Archangel, Nov. 8.-During the evacuation of the Dvina region, the British force, while withdrawing from Ustvaga, lost four men killed and eleven wounded as the result of ruse by the Bolshevists. General Sadleir Jackson narrowly escaped death.
 As the British were retiring, the enemy concealed themselves in a wood on the Dvina. When the Brit ish came down the river in boats the Boishevists opened fire. General Sadler- Jackson was in the first craft and bullet passed within two inches of his head. Next came a barge full of Royal Fusiiers, four of whom were killed and eleven wounded. It is be- lieved that the enemy commander in tended to attack the yacht Retvisan on which were all the members of the British staff. However, he mistooll the barge for the yacht, which came down the river later.

New Plan Prevents
 Loss on Exchange
 from London Banks

London, Nov. 8.-By increasing the cost of money orders, payable in the United States from eight cents to seventy-two cents for every pound sterling, the postal authorities have blocked an avenue whereby Ameri- cans were able to send money home without incurring any loss incident to the low rate of British exchange on America.
 Throughout the period of deprec;a- tion of English money in the United States, the international postal rate of exchange has remained constant at 487. So by resorting to money or ders instead of to bank drafts, which were governed by the daily rate of exchange, and often 50 or more points below the postal rate, those who wished to transfer money from this country to the other side were enabled to do so at the nominal ex- pense of less than 10 cents for every There was a limit, however, to the amount that could be sent in this way, the authorities during the war restricting it to 100 pounds a week for each individual.
  London avoided serious loss by us- ing this means of transferring hls capital to his home city in Ohio. Of course, many weeks were required to effect this particular transfer, as the amount involved was several thou- sand pounds, but he got it all through just before the price of money orders was so radically boosted.
 G. c., tbo ,,nc4o1 o1Jtll critics have not altered the cost of money orders payable in this coun- try. An American banker here pointed out to the correspondent that the situation created by the action of the British postal authorities places the American public at dis advantage, especially those persons living in country districts where banking facilities are limited and who must relp on the postal money-order service

Woman, 1O3, Takes Summer Vacation
 Trip by Herself

Spartensberg, Tex, Nov s.-Mrs. Anna Pugh, 103 years old returned to her home here a few days ago from Colorado where she spent the summer. On her way back she stop ped at Big Springs, Tex, for a visit with friends. She made the long journey alone, as has been her cus- tom for many years. Notwithstand- ing her advanced age she is able to get around with the agility and en- joyment of a young person.
 Mrs. Pugh was born near what is now the city of Des Moines. She is said to have been the first white child born in that part of the West, which at that early day was overrun by Indians. Mrs. Pugh was brought to Texas by her parents about 1S4C and has made her home here since In the early days she had many thrill ing experiences with Indians. Her life has been filled with charitable deeds and loving kindness. Besides bringing up four children of her owl she took under her are seven or phan children, all of whom she rear ed to manhood and womanhood. 1 Mrs. Pugh makes her home witt her niece, Mrs. James Fullerton, o Spartenberg.

Cheerfulness of
 English During
 Strike Remarked

London, Nov. S.-Cheerfulness was shown by London's harassed millions during the great railway strike. Am orleans watched and marveled, They saw the mass of traffi csurging through the narrow Strand, flush to .he curbs with what seemed to be as ineXtricable confusion of every kind of vehicle, ranging from mammoth steam lorries, belching black, acrld smoke from their furnished copper stacks, to bicycles and "scocters," and observed the sidewalks thronged with brisk, smiling pedestrians un- able to get lift on the packed buses.
 Occasionally fine automobile would pause to pick up a humble foot sore workman trudging home from his job. The sight of plumber in fustian, longing comfortably in 2 splendid limousine and smoking, q battered pipe by the side of the own- CT led those Americans to think that the millenium had come. "The new brotherhood of the war;" remarked a thoughtful New Yorker.
 This sense of comradeship and sympathy with the suffering was everywhere revealed. London re- yived the spirit of the trenches. "See it through" was the slogan. "Let everybody help"
 A better excuse for lodging office duties never presented itself, but those that took advantage of it were surprisingly few. One heard on al sides stories of girl clerks living ir the suburbs who, day after day, walk. ed six or eight miles to and iron their work.
 In the outlying districts where om nibuses and tram-cars have then starting point, lines of people formed as soon as it was daylight. The que ues extended. six deep. for quarte of mile and the patient walters con sidered themselves lucky If they has to stand only all hour or so. ES

eept at the starting place, it was al- most hopeless to attempt to board a bus or tram.
 There was instant response to the appeal made by the automobile asso- citation to car owners and drivers to give pedestrians lift. Most ears with empty places stopped to pick up women workers. Sidecars groan- ed with four passengers and the back step of many of the old-fashioned bi- cycles resurrected for the emergency carried balancing man or girl
 Throughout London the tangle of traffic was amazing. It roared IS never before in the streets of the City" But the Point policeman kept their heads, as did the drivers and riders, and the casualty list was uncommonly small.
 London, with it's extraordinary knack of adapting itself to new con- ditions, rose to the occasion of the greatest strike in the country's his tory.
