Race Riots and Police Strikes.
And l hope you will not think it
inappropriate if I stop here to ex-
press my shame as an American
citizen at the race riots that have
occurred in some places in this
country, where men have forgot
ten humanity and justice and or
dered society and have run amuck-
That constitutes a man not only the
enemy of society, but his own
enemy and the enemy of justice.
and I want to say this, too, that
strike of the policemen of a great
city, leaving that city at the mercy
of an army of thugs, is a crime
against civilization.
in my Judgment the obligation
of a policeman is as sacred and
direct as the obligation of a soldier.
He is a public servant, not a private
employe, and the whole honor and
safety of the community is in his
hands. He has no right to prefer
any private advantage to the pub
lie safety I hope that that lesson
will be burned in so that it will
never again be forgotten, because
the pride of America is that it can
exercise seIf-controI That is what
self-governing nation is, not
merely a nation that elects people
to do its jobs for it. but a nation
that can keep its head, concert its
purposes and find out how its pur-
poses can be executed"

ing domestic questions like the
tariff and immigration, the presi-
dent points out that the covenant
expressly prohibits the council
from interfering in domestic ques-
lions or making reports on domes-
tic disputes. To enumerate the tar
iff and immigration is in his opin-
ion making a list of special ques-
tions and that is dangerous because
some domestic questions might be
omitted and America would not
want to give the impression that
all domestic questions except the
tariff and immigration might pos
sibIy be considered within the jur-
isdiction of the council. The men
ton of one thing" remarks the
president, lis often the exclusion
of other things"
The Shantung Question.
Fifth, the presidents explanation
of the Shantung provision is that
to take Shantung from Japan who
now is in possession of it, means
war with Japan and France and
Great Britain. The latter two
countries are bound by solemn
treaty entered into before the Paris
conference took place whereby
they are pledged to give Japan the
rights enjoyed by Germany Mr..
Wilson says the remedy lies in ar
ticle 10, which safeguards the ter
rifOriaI integrity of China and
makes it possible to examine some
of the other rights and possessions
enjoyed by European powers in
China and give them back to China
some day He thinks the league
gives China a new forum befOrS
which she can bring any case OF
threatened oppression or danger. .
While the president contends for
an unqualified adoption of the
treaty on the above grounds, be-
cause, as he says, the treaty al
ready covers many of the objec-

tons to it suggested in the senate,
it is apparent that his real fear is
not that the other countries would
not accept Americas reservations
even if embodied in the ratifying
resolution itself, but that he be-
lieves that once changes are made
by America, other nations will
want changes too. and that oppO-
sition parties in parliaments the
world over will seek amendment
and the whole peace treaty will be
delayed in ratification or operation.
In the meantime bolshevism may
sweep the nations of Europe and
possibly America while statesmen
spend time in debate. Mr.. Wilson
utters that warning and hopes that
such a tragedy will not be nee
essary to confirm his present judg-
ment
"PeOple Do Not Back BOrah.7
Both at Cour d'Alene and Spo-
kane the president was given a
demonstrative reception. These
are the states of Senators Borah
and Poindexter, who belong to the
group that wish to see the League
Of Nations eliminated altogether.
Sentiment here as given US by lead
ing Republicans does not sustain
either senator. Even Governor
Davis Of Idaho, Republican, friend
of Mr.. Borah, is not altogether sure
the senator correctly represents
Idaho opinion in seeking the de-
feat of the treaty. Much the same
view is given by conservative OBJ
servers in the state OF Washington.
President Wilson carried the
northwest states in 1916 and they
unquestionably gave him the heart
lest greeting he has met thus far.
