WILSON IS DEFIANT,
SAY LEAGUE CRITICS
Speech in France Taken as
Declaration for Inter
natiOnalism.
sp,cio, D,spa,ch 70 THE srv.

WARRINGTON, May 81. President
Wilson's speech over the graves Of the
American dead in France is regarded by
the Senate plainly throwing down the
gauntlet on the issue Of the League Of
Nations. The President by his speech.
Senators believe, clearly has aligned
himself for the league and information
alism as opposed to the maintenance of
the ancient traditions. policies, doctrines
and complete independence of the
United States.
With the single exception. Of Senator
Reed (Mo.), Democrat, opponents of the
league plan refused to comment to-day
publicly on the Presidents speech, part
ly because It is generally understood
that Senator johnson (Cal.) in his
speech on Monday will make answer to
certain passages in the Presidents Me-
mortal Day address.
In their private discussions to-day Of
the speech. however. Senators picked
out two passages In It which they con-
sidered amazing. The first was that the
men who oppose the surrender of Amer
lean. rights, freedom and liberty of ac-
ton to the direction Of the balance of
the world "will be just as ashamed OF 1t
as he Is who regretted the union OF. the
States" The second passage particu-
larry picked out for discussion was that
declaring that this age has abandoned
rational selfshness' and given way
to new order Of things in which the
only questions will be is IL right Is II
Just Is 1t in the interest OF mankind?' -
Tho last declaration, Senators believe
puts the President definitely on record In
favor, and strongly in favor, of interna-
tionalism as opposed to the Government
OF the United States by its own people
as in the past.
There was a distinct feeling OF disgust
among League opponents that the Preh
| dent had taken advantage of the sacre'
| occasion on which he spoke to make ar
| argument to the world in favor OF hit
League of Nations scheme. but even OF
| this subject Senators, notably Senator
| Lodge (Mass.). refused to make an!
| comment on the Presidents actions o.
| utterances until they found out def
initely what the peace treaty and tn
| League covenant revised contained. The,
| are not satisfied with the cabled version
which have been allowed to reach thi
| country.
| Senator Reed had this to say: ~,
amount of abuse or threats expressed o
implied will In my view alter the posi-
ton of any American worthy OF tn
name. The American people will main
tain the right to control their govern
mental policy. and l think they will ex
ercise that right in a way to maintain
the independence of the United State
unimpaired even though 1t may disap
point the hopes and ambitions of som
people. say II would be an insult Z

TO SEIZE WALKER WEALTH.
Canada VIII Take Over Countess
Won Matuscha's Share.

TORONTO. May 31.-A judicial order
vas asked to-day by tho Secretary of
State for Canada to turn over to the
Custodian OF Alien Property $500, 900
bequeathed to Countess Manfred Won
Matuscha by her father, Franklin Hiram
Walker. owner Of big distilling interests
a. Windsor, Ontario. Mr.. Walker died
1916 leaving an estate valued at
s3,762.s97.
After payment Of $66s,o66 succession
duties the residue was by will to be
divided between the testator's widow,
Mrs May Walker of Detroit and his
only child Ella, who had married Count
Won Matuscha of Breslau, now an enemy
alien. The court ordered notice of the
application to be served on Mrs. Walker,
who. under an agreement with her
daughter was to receive practically the
entire estate.

should be used in taking up each year
that amount OF the Government securi-
ties.
Enthustasts Are Impatient.
The programme as here outlined is re-
garded with impatience by one class Of
enthusiasts, who insist that II ought not
to take so long to discharge the debt.
oh" they say, Tets put on tax big
enough to clean II up In ten years and
have done with It." Neither the Senator
nor the wise heads OF business and
finance with whom he has been consult
Ing consider this ut all feasible. The
burden would be too heavy. They fear
that public debts would be transmitted
into private debts, and In getting the
Government out of debt the procedure
would be getting the people into it
deeper.
There are three things the people are
Interested in at this time," ADDED Sena-
tor Smoot. "They demand, first, to stop
the wicked waste In Government expen-
ditures and cut Government costs to the
bone. Second, to change the revenue
laws so as to avoid all discrimination, to
fake out the naggins. troublesome taxes.
and to pass a fair revenue law that will
insure equality of treatment to all busl-
ness Third, and finally. the people are
interested in the League of Nations
They want to know whether we are
going to maintain our present form OF
government and remain an. Independent
sovereign nation.
The present development of public
opinion Is all in opposition to the league
The public Is coming to realize that 1t Is
| simply a means to place the credit and
RESOURCES of the ono great aolyent nation
behind the overburdened Powers of the
world. 1t means dumping the accumu
| lated deficits OF the world on our shout
ders. and the people VIM realize that ir
| time to save US from the danger Of being
involved In It,"
Senator Smoot is not yet ready tc
present his fiscal programme in detail
| to Congress, but as soon as possible Il
will be introduced.

ALL NATIONS INCLUDED
Special Despatch to TIE Sun.


WASHINGTON. May 31.-This world.
according to Senator Reed Smoot
tUtah). the acknowledged Congress
expert in such subjects, is now inflated
to the extent Of s24o. 100000. AS
the sphere is only worth at present de-
preciated values of money about $780,
0o0,o 900. the Senator finds that the
imitation represents one-fourth the
whole status Of the planet.
But that is not the worst Of 1t. On
the basis of values as they existed be-
fore the war caused imitation the world
was worth about $4,000, o00, 900. So
that to-day imitation represents almost
one-third as much as the legitimate
valuation of the bail before the Ger
mans started their abortive effort to
capture 1t.
Starting with the figures. the Senator
outlined to-day to THE Sun the scheme
Of starting a gradual. systematic defia-
ton, on which he has been at work ever
since the war ended. He has been. in
conference with many men of affairs
and has studied the legislative and fiscal

Figures in Costs of War.
In making his statement that there I:

this figure by adding together the cos

In 1914 there was little imitation. com
