Stand By America!
A Message on the Wilson League
From a Fighting Roosevelt.

To The Editor Of The SuD:-Sir:
Many Of US who were in France or
were lying wounded in the hospitals in
the United States are now wearing
civilian clothes and have the right Of
Of free speech. We have returned to
a life that seems new and strange and
We are myslifisd by the events follow
log in the wake Of the war.
We fnd President demanding and
receiving the absolute obedience re-
q1ired only in the front line; but un'
like the officers in the front line, he
will listen to no suggestion from the
rank and file. We are amazed at his
having the inSolence 10 career over to
Europe to tell our friends and foes
that large maj>rity Of the American
people are united behind him and his
plan for the League Of Nations. The
majority OF the American people are
not behind him. Mos; Of us-and l
believe I am a fair sample OF the aver
age American-have no idea what the
language Of Mr.. Wilson's covenant
means.
We want time TO talk the matter
over, and to see what we can 90 for
other nations without running our own
nation. 1t will do but little good if,
by helping the Czecho Slovaks or the
Atmenans to keep their freedom, we
subject our country and the Western
Hemisphere to the mandates Of alien
Powers.
Yet while we want 10 talk over the
league, to clarity our own ideas and TO
have time 10 choose and select what
to do in regard to our future interna-
tjonal relations, al the same time we
want an immediate peace, which will
restore the world to normal conditions,
and to render the clustering, bullying,
cringjDg German entirely impotent.
The solution seems so self evident
that hesitate to mention it. Let US
make peace Immediately, and after
having made our peace let US convene

ties and There's a Reason.

There is lot Of money being spent
every day in advertising with the OBJ
ject Of separating plain Mr.. American
from his Liberty Bonds either by Of.
fers to buy them outright or trading
In wildcat stock for them. Many plain
Mr., Americans are rushing in where
wise men fear to tread and are fall
ing" for the advertisements without
thought OF why the other fellow wants
the bonds,
Advertising, especially the kind
Liberty Bond brokers are using, costs
a lot OF money. Where does the buyer
get off? Well, be sure he IA getting
off else lie wouldn't advertise He
isn't in business for his health, He is
after the money. It's clnch you are
helping him to a big rake-off when you
trade or sell your Liberty Bonds.
That's sense, isn't it7
II Liberty Bond is worth, say,
sos to the broker after he has paid
for all OF his expensive advertising,
II certainly is worth par or more than
par to the holder. For on top Of his
advertising expenses the broker main.
tains costly offices and much help
That's sense, isn't 1T
The reason the broker wants the
bonds is that he or his clients want
to hold them. It's the brokers' busi
ness to know bond values. He knows
that these Liberty Bonds are going to
be valuable things-that they are go
ing way above par-within a year OF
two.
Hold them yourself.

allied nations for the purpose OF Great,
ing league Of nations which will strive
! 10 limit wars in the future.
Before We sign or agree to any
league Of nations we must solemnly
vow 10 ourselves TO live up TO the let
ter and the spirit Of any international
agreement We make. We must be
very careful 10 make no agreement
which We cannot live up to. We
must never share with Germany the
point Of view that the international
agreements are scraps Of paper,
Let the Senate take heed for the
Republic is in danger. Let the peo
pie Of the United States show the in,
ternationalist politicians OF the New
World and the statesmen Of the Old,
who are patriotically looking after the
interests Of their own people, that the
people Of the United States are truly
lin the saddle" and will allow no one
without courage TO represent them.
We, the people, must demand the
Senate use the powers given TO il by
the Constitution. No conglomeralion
OF foreign statesmen or a few sell-ap.
pointed American delegates should be
able 10 wrest from the hands Of the
people their power. Ours has always
been a representative government,
representative Of the will Of the people,
It must always remain representative.
Stand on your feet SenatorsI Refuse
to be tricked into approving any league
Of nations at the present time merely
to hasten peace. II peace treaty and
league are in two parts, approve only
the treaty. Refuse any peace treaty
interviewer with the League OF Nations.
We need peace, but we need honesty
and common sense more than peace.
All Of US believe in and will support
any proposition likely to limit wars in
the future, But we must have time
to talk things over before we decide
on any new policy so vitality affecting
our whole national and international
life. We want TO discuss the proposi
tion alter we have made peace.
There are many Of US who feel that
those at the Peace Conference are not
truly representative Of public opinion,
Perhaps the Sixty.sixth Congress will
be more so. The Sixty sixth Congress
needs both courage and conviction to
oppose the bullying Of Mr.. Wilson. n
this Congress fails we must find in
1920 men who are fit 10 lead US.

WHAT ouR hoYs HAD 70 DO.

What our boys had to do they did.
They asked for no guarantee against
loss. They were prepared to give
their lives, and masy made the su-
preme sacrifice. We are not asked TO
give our lives. No one is asked 10
give money. The government offers
TO borrow and II offers the safest Sc.
curlty ever devised and an investment
that is highly profitable as well.

Jefferson City Letter

April 7th, 1919,
The presidential suffrage bill Tor
women, passed by the House, has been
signed by the Governor and is now
the law Of the state. 1t is interesting
to note that some democratic papers
are now claiming that a democratic
Senate has given the ballot to the
women Of Missouri, when in truth the
only real opposition to the measure was
in the Senate. So alarmed were those
interested in the bill who feared it
would fail in the Senate that a special
train was chartered 10 carry delayed
republican senator TO Jefferson City to
cast his vote for the bill. In the
House overy republican member out
side Of St. Lotus voted for the bill and
only three out Of fifteen republican
members from St. Louis opposed it.
