The Bees Fund for
Free Ice and Milk

In the fearful heat Of Wednesday
night many babies in poverty-strick-
en- homes sucked pure, cool milk
from bottles and found comfort and
sleep.
The people who have contributed
to The Bees fund were responsible
for the rest that came to those little
ones. Nothing can take away the
credit of a generous act such as
keeping these, helpless little ones
supplied with the necessary milk.
The fund needs money badly.
WILL YOU HELP? =
Then send or bring any sum you
like, from 10 cents to SIS to The Bee
Office. 1t will be put to work and
every penny of it will buy cool milk
or ice for the desperately poor.

LODGE WOULD MAKE
TREATY RESERVATIONS
1920 ELECTION ISSUE
Favors Letting People Decide
What They Want; Refers
to "Super-Government"

Washington, Nov. Ex-senator
Lodge has decided to make the treaty
an issue Of the 1920 campaign. His
statement follows:
II have no especial comment to
make. The case is very simple. After
four months Of careful consideration
and discussion, the reservations were
presented to the senate They were
purely American in their character,
designed solely to Americanize the
treaty and make it safe for the Unit
ed States.
Under the presidents orders the
followers Of the administration in
the senate voted down these reserva-
tions. 1t was also shown by a vote
that there was a decisive majority
against the treaty with the reserva-
tions.
Those reservations as presented to
the senate will stand. There Is no
room for further compromise be-
tween Americanism and the SUPER
government presented by the league.
All l ask now Is that we may have
the opportunity to lay those reserva-
tions before the American people. To
that great and final tribunal alone
would I appeal.
II wish to carry those reservations
into the campaign. wish the Ameri-
can people to read and study them.
They are not like the covenant of the
league. They are simple. I do not
see that there is one of them to
which any American can object.
want the people to see them, under
stand them, and to think of them in
every household, on every farm, in
every shop and factory throughout
the land. Then let them decide"
