Senator Fletcher's Position
On Lodge Resolution

In his speech on the floor of the
Senate during the consideration of
the Lodge Resolution, providing that
the Constitution of the League of
Nations and the Treaty should not
be accepted by the United States,
Senator Fletcher said:
Mr.. President, in reference to the
resolution now before the Senate, it
must be distinctly understood that
those who oppose the resolution in its
present form are not thereby COM
mitted to the proposition that they
are opposed to any reservations what
ever to the Treaty. 1t must be un-
derstood that there are reservations
involved in the resolution which are
regarded by those who are friendly to
the Treaty as unobjectionable
There are quite number among
the friends of the Treaty, am sure,
who would really raise no question
concerning quite few of the reserva-
tons embodied in the present resolu-
ton, but it is perfectly plain also
that the resolution includes reserva-
tions which make it as it stands prac-
tically destructive of the very life
and heart OF the treaty, and it is on
that account that many of us--I do,
speaking for myself-find ourselves
utterly unable to support the resolu-
ton,
Il shall not take up the time to
argue the reasons why | think the
Treaty ought to be ratified, and this
League ought to be approved, but
from that standpoint alone would
appeal to every Senator upon this
t,oor-and | think it would meet fav-
orable response in the breast Of ev'
cry American in the land-that we
say to our friends This is an i'm,
portant enterprise; it is worthy your
contribution and our contribution; we
have been with you up to this time ;
we will go with you to the end; We
will endeavor to do our part, and we
will not shirk any responsibility; we
will not ask anything for ourselves
that we are not willing to give to
you, and we will 60 on and try this
experiment out in the effort to see
that there shall never again come to
the world such destruction of life and
property, such distress and suffering
as we have just gone through with
"Mr. President, seven and hall
millions OF the bravest and best
young men of the world lie buried
killed in battle; over 100000 more

ed, and $1S6, OOO,OO0,0O has been the
cost in dollars and cents up to this
time. Do we sit idly here contem
plating the possibility of continuing

come because we assume 1t cannot be
avoided? Ought we not make every

it that so far as it can be accom-
plished we shall put an end to tina
sort of thing in the future?"

HOW YOU'RE. COIN TO KEEP
EN- DOWN ON THE FARM.

There exists no weightier consider
alton for the farmers of today than
that of keeping their boys, and their
girls too, for that matter, at home on
the farm, keeping them satisfied and
happy to stay at home on the farm
and to assume their just portion of
the farm tasks and labor.
City lights today burn brighter
than ever before. There have never
before been as many allurements in
town and city for the country boy
and girl, Wages in the city are
higher than they ever WERE. Every
where there is labor shortage, con-
sequently a constant demand for a.
ble-bodied, clear-sighted boys like
Henry county breeds. Amusements
in the towns and cities become more
numerous every day, and moreover
reasonably priced. The city is cal
ling in more ways than one, calling
to the ambitious youth, calling to the
youth who at present stage is chiefly
pleasure bent--with its noise and
comforts and advantages, the city is
calling to youth, because the city
needs youth.
But the farm needs youth also and
need them so cryingly that they can
not afford to keep supplying the city's
demands.
The day has past when the farm is
only cold storage plant of joy.
Fleet winged progress has brought
the comforts and pleasures of the
city to the farmers door. Running
water at a nominal cost, electric
lights even, screens, and other innum-
cradle conveniences are easily within
reach of the farmers pocketbook.
Wherever possible the farmer owes
It to his family to provide these con-
veniences. Instead of sticking that
extra high profit on tobacco, cotton,
pigs, etc, away down in some stick
ing savings deposit, he should invest
it in an interest bearing proposition
that will be compounded daily in
health and happiness for his loved
ones. Make the farm home attrac-
tive if you would keep your boy at
home. Put something there to in
terest, please, and benefit a growing
boy or girl beyond the general home
. necessities. GooQ DOCKS, magazines,
vctroia-such things that will fur
nish entertainment at home when the
daily chores are finished, so that Tom
and Bill won't be fer ever runnin'
off to town whenever they git a
ehancav Raeausa sonne dav Tom
and Bill too, will get a job in town
jerking soda or something and you
will be hand or so short during the
busy season. Also mother is going
to miss Tom and Bill, and we 'spect
you will too, little bit, and maybe

Furthermore, the farmer who

EXTRA SESSION
FORCOOD ROADS

Endorsement of the proposal for an
early extra session of the Georgia leg
islature for the purpose of enacting
good roads legislation was voiced to-
day by the Americus and Sumter Coun-
ty Chamber of Commerce in set of
resolutions which were. adopted blythe
commissioners of the Chamber of Com
merce and forwarded to Governor Dor
sey. The resolutions follow:
Whereas, the proper and intelligent
development of our public highways is
of vital importance to every citizen of
the state; and,
Whereas, the period of re-adjust-
ment and business development follow
ing the war will bring enormous op-
portunities to the South, many of
which it will not be possible for Geor-
gia to grasp under its present imper-
feet system of highway development;
and,
Whereas, there appears to exist
imperative necessity for prompt legis-
lative action in order that Georgia may
avail itself of the federal funds ap-
propriated by the government for high
way improvements, therefore be it,
Resolved, by the Americus and
Sumter County Chamber of Commerce,
through its Board of Commissioners,
that Governor Hugh NJ Dorsey be and
is hereby urged to convene the Cen
eral Assembly in extra session at the
earliest practical date for the purpose
Of enacting such legislation as will
make available federal funds appro-
priated for highway improvements and
to insure good roads for Georgia; and
be it further,
Resolved, that state bond issue

gested by the Georgia State Automo-
bile association for not less than $40,-

5 THE COTTON MARKET
LOCAL SPOT.
Good Middling Csc.
NEW YORK FUTURES.

Today's cotton market was largely
a repetition, in narrower way, of
Tuesday. The market opened strong
at an advance, but toward the end of
the session selling developed on a
strong scale, sending values down
again to the low mark for the day. The
net losses today, however were much
smaller than yesterday. Local spot
cotton was quoted half cent Off
March opened on the New York ex-
change at an advance of 20 points to-
day over yesterdays weak close, at
2290, and eventually advanced to 23.02
At the close that option had sagged to
22.42.
The big selling movement yesterday
which wrecked a rising market, was
based partially on reports on the cot
ton exchange Of labor troubles in the
textile mills al Georgia and south
Carolina.
