Wilson Denounced
By Senator Reed in
Speech at Buffalo

Buffalo, Sept. 12.-Speaking at a
nonpartisan mass meeting last
night, James A Reed, United
States senator from Missouri, de-
nounced the league of nations, the
present form of the peace treaty
and President Wilson's attitude to-
ward the senate.
This is not a political ISSUE" said
Senator Reed, "but an American is
sue. I venture to say that if Theo-
dore Roosevelt brought back this
identical treaty that President Will
son brought back-and Roosevelt
never would-he would not get a
vote from the democsatic party. I
am a democrat because of the prin-
ciples for which the party used to
stand, but I would part company
with any man on earth who told
me that we must ratify this treaty
as it stands"
The senator accused President
Wilson of making use of the demo-
cratic national committee to start
propaganda fof immediate ratihca-
ton of the league.

Nurses Call Meeting
To Discuss Adoption
OF Uniform T Prices

A meeting of all the graduate and
registered nurses on private duty
in Omaha and vicinity will be held
at the Kelpine hall, 2424 Farnam
street. next Wednesday to discuss
proposed uniform prices to be
charged by professional nurses.
The meeting has been called by
Mrs. Walter E. Child, member Of
the state association of nurses.
Short talks will be given by men,
bers of the nursing profession and
others identified with city welfare
work.
Profteering by nurses is one of
the important subjects to be dis
cussed. According to Mrs. Child.
nurses demanded and were paid as
high as $3.50 week last winter dur
ing the influenza epidemic. Nurses
who demanded such salaries during
this sickness were not graduate or
professional nurses, however, Mrs.
Child says, but nonprofessional,
practical nurses.
One OF the objects Of the meet
ing is to inform the public that such
prices were not charged by profess
sional nurses, and to fix a standard
salary to be paid nurses, thus en-
aiding the public to know when it is
being overcharged.

AT WASHINGTON
Commander n.Chief Reports
His Work Successfully
Ended-Is Received by
Vice President.

Washington, Sept. l2.-With the
plaudits Of New York and Philadel-
phia still ringing in his ears Gen.
John ]. Pershing arrived in Wash
ington today and received foretaste
of the more formal greeting he will
receive next week when he leads the
First division up historic Pennsyl-
vania avenue in the nations victory
parade.
As he stepped from his special
train at the station. the man who led
the American army to victory in
France heard shrill cry of greeting
rise from the hundreds Of women
and girls who lined his pathway. AS
he stood later with bared head be-
fore Vice President Marshall in the
presidents waiting room to receive
the welcome of the president and of
the nation. again it was women and
girls, armed with flags and flowers
who surrounded him. There was
little of pomp of war about this
conqueror's return.
Greeted by Baker.
Secretary Baker and General
March, chief of staff, greeted General
Pershing at the train and escorted
him to the room where the vice
president awaited him.
The arched roof of the big build
ing rosred with the shouting of the
crowd jammed close along his path.
A military band pounded cut its for
NAL greeting of Hail to the Chief"
almost unheard. The crash Of salut-
ing artillery.-posted far away by the
quiet Potomac, went unnotlced:H
In greeting General Pershing
Vice President Marshall said:
Hail the Patriot.
"You are not only welcome to the
capital city of your own republic.
but you are welcome back to the
land of your nativity. Your COM
mander in chief bids me in his be-
half, and in behalf of the American
people. to greet you. TO you it has
been vouchsafed to lead the greatest
expeqitionary force of all time
through perils at sea, perils of land
and pefNs of air to the ultimate ac-
complishment of your countrys pur.
pose and your hearts desire.
"In the name of my countrymen
and my president ! salute you. Hail
the parrot, farewell the conqueror.
and yet again, hail"

ing a safeguard around national SOW
ereignty.
Mr.. Wilson also discussed al
length proposed reservations to the
treaty and asked for its unqualified
acceptance. =
President Wilson departed for Ia
coma where he will speak tomor-
row morning.
Crowd Cheers Plan.
Repeating many of his previous
declarations regarding the treaty's
provisions, the president asked the
crowd at the armory whether they
did not think some insurance against
war was better than none, and there
were cries of Yes, yes followed
by cheers.
Not one of the qualifications sug-
gested to the league of nations COW
enant was warranted, declared the
president. Under the withdrawal
clause, he asserted, the nation itself
would judge whether it had per-
formed its international obligations.
That was matter, he added, which
never could or would be left to the
judgment of any other nation.
In effect, Mr.. Wilson declared,
the language of the covenant made
the right of withdrawal uncondi-
tional. He was cheered when he
asserted that as an American he
was sure the United States never
would fail to fulfill its obligations.
Requires United States Vote.
Taking up the proposed reserva-
tons to Article X, the president
said the vote of the United States
would be required to INSURE any de-
cision of the league council.
yet | hear gentlemen say" he
continued, that this is a violation
OF our sovereignty. If it is any
thing. it is an exaggeration of our
sovereignty. This extends our SOW
ereignty to saying whether other
nations shall go to war or not"
DEPRESSING to say, there was an
element Of bitterness in the league
controversy, the president said.
Some people seemed to think that
a man named Wilson had origi-
mated the league" Adding that he
had wished he had done so, the
presid dent asserted that, on the con-
trary, the idea had grown out of
years of discussion, largely on the
part of the republican statesmen.
Constructive Legislation.
Many men had said to him, con-
tinued the president, Il am a repub-
lican, but | am in favor of the
league of nations Continuing
that the republican party had always
prided itself in being party of con-
Mr.. Wilson said if he were
a republican he would say, Il am
republican and therefore / am for
the league of nations"
1t had been proposed at Paris,
said the president, that the covenant
provide that the members should
automatically be at war with COW
enant breaker. But he added that
he had opposed the suggestion be-
cause it would take away from con-
gress the power to declare war.
II fought that fight" said Mr..
Wilson. while the crowd cheered,

Society Women Use
Nelu Wrinkle Remover

Since the discovery that a solution Of
ordinary ssxolite and witch hazel has q
peculiar effect upon wrinkled skins. it
has been learned That many prominent
society women all over the country have
great success. The formula is: powdered
saxolite, one ounce, dissolved in witch
hazel. one-haH pint Use daily as q wash
lotion.
The beneficial action of this wash is
felt at once. There's an agreeable re-
freshing sensation and feeling of exhilara-
ton. Flabbiness and all wrinkles are i'm
mediately affected, and the skin soon be-
comes firmer and more youthful looking.
No woman need hesitate to get the in
gradients at the drug store and make the
remedy herself, for there are no harmful
effects whatever-Ady.

"and | won it. They don't have to
fight it over again" ]
Going on to the proposed Monroe
doctrine reservation, the president
said the peace conference tried to
define the doctrine as clearly as pos
sible.
Most Extraordinary Sentence.
That is the most extraordinary
sentence in the document" he con-
tinued, because up to that time
there wasn't great power in the
world that was willing to admit the
validity of the Monroe doctrine"
1t was absolutely irrational" said
Mr.. Wilson, to ask for anything
more.
Domestic questions, too, the pres
ident said, were fully reserved to
national decision, if only to make it
clearer, he said, to list those ques-
tions. He added: The danger of
making list is that the mention of
the things you mention constitutes
the exclusion of the things you don't
mention"

WILSON SPEAKS
IN HOME STATE
Of P0|NDExTER
Replying to Objections or
Great Britain's Votes,
President Says Decisions
Must Be Unanimous.

Spokane, Wash, Sept. l2.-Reply-
ing to objections that Great Britain
would have a preponderance of vot-
ing oowcr in the league of nations
assembly, President Wilson said any
possible danger on that score was
removed by the fact that decisions
must be unanimous.
The speech here was the second
the president made during the day.
He spoke this morning at Occur
d'Alene, Idaho, making an invasion of
the state represented by United
States Senator Borah in the senate.
At,Goeur d'Alene the tent in which
he spoke was not entirely filled. Here
in the armory every seat was taken.
The league of nations assembly,
the president declared was largely
a debating body" and seldom would
act on important questions and when
it did the United States with its one
vote would have an absolute veto"
under the rule requiring unanimous
vote.
Hold Veto Power.
There was only one case in which
the assembly could decide an i'm
portant question he said, and that
when such question was unani-
mousiy referred to it by the coun-
Gil The assembly also must act
unanimously, he added. so that in
either council or assembly the one
vote of the United States would con-
stitute veto power.
The unanimous rule. added the
president, seemed to him the only
weakness of the league. but it was
a weakness in the direction of throw

ponderance of women in the crowd
about him that led General Pershing
to pay high tribute to the women Of
America in his haltingly delivered
reply to the vice preidenst. In tine
ungrudging confidence the presi-
dent had reposed in him, he said,
he had found constant strength for
the tasks that had fallen to him,
but he added that it was the high
courage of the women of Amreica
that had made possible victory
complete and final.
Tomorrow General Pershing will
re-establish in the war department
headquarters of the American expe-
dictionary force, of which he still is
the commander. There he will
close up the affairs of the A. E. F.

U.S.. Delegates Were
Opposed to Treaty,
Mission Expert Says

to make any statement and had gone
! fishing.
Bullitt, formerly a newspaper cor
respondent, went to Paris with
President Wilson's party and was
attached to the mission. He was
summoned to testify before the
treaty was reported out by the COM
mittee, but was in the Maine woods
on camping trip, and the notice
did not reach him until few days
ago. This was explained by Chair
man Lodge to show why the hearing
apparently had been reopened.
Confidential Information.
A wealth of information regarded
as more or less confidential was
given by the witness during his
three hours statement. In February
last, he was sent by Secretary
Lansing to Petrosrad to bring back
from the soviet leaders a statement
showing the exact terms on witch
they would agree to peace. This
report which told among other
things of good order" established
by the bolsheviki, Lenine's desire
for peace, his readiness to compro-
mise at many points in order to
obtain it, and his promise that all
foreign debts of the soviet govern
ment should be paid, never was
made public, Bullitt said, because the
president would mot agree. Lloyd
George wanted it printed, he said.
yet later the premier denied all
knowledge of it when questioned in
parliament.
Bullitt described himself as a
clearing house OF information for
the delegation and worked gen eral-
ly under Col. E. M. House.
Shows Original League.
He showed the commute the
presidents original league proposal,
written on the presidents own type
writer and bearing an inscription by
Colonel House attesting the latter's
high regard for the witness. Bullitt
quoted Colonel House freely /and
when asked why he had resigned
produced from a great stack of pa
pers a letter he had written the
president expressing his lack of sat-
isfaction with the way the peace ne
gotiations were proceeding and par
t;cularly voicing disapproval of the
league of nations. About the only
part of the presidents league pro-
posal incorporated in the covenant,
he said, was the widely debated ar
ticle 10, which remained intact. Once
in Paris, Bullitt had an engagement
with the president, which he said
the president called off because of
a heada che. He laid before the COM
mittee hisletter telling the president
why he had quit the mission, but
the committee did not question him
about it.
Along with his report of condi-
tons in Russia Bullitt gave the COM
mittee the soviet peace proposal,
which never went to the peace con-
ference and which was dropped, he
testified, because the people in
Paris became lukewarm when they
read that Admiral Kolchak was
heading for Moscow, after a 1905
mile advance, and was due there in
two weeks.
Lansing Refuses Comment.
Watertown, N. Y, Sept. H.
Secretary of State Robert Lansing
at his summer home in Henderson
Harbor this afternoon would make
absolutely no comment on the tes-
timony of William c. Bullitt before
the senate foreign relations commit
tee that the secretary of state had
said that if the American people
knew what the treaty meant they
would defeat it.
