Perhaps ne better illustration e1 what the United States is facing in the way of religious and racial differences by the adoption of league of nations can be found than in an amendment and it's rejection which occurred in | the senate a few days ago. Senator Sherman called attention to the fact that nowhere in the treaty as sub mitted by the president does the nars of the Deity appear and asked thaa there be inserted in the preamble tn, words invoke the gracious favor O Almighty God The amendment va rejected on the ground that a majorit, of the nations involved in the leaxu l are not of the Christian faith and tha 1t would be improper and would an tagonize nations holding pagan ant other beliefs contrary to the Christian religion.

kthleticism in the East.

The general athletic awakening is
perhaps the most important effect that
our occupation of the Philippines has
had upon the far East. Just as the old
Olympic games, begun by one village,
grew to be tht great recurrin.- event at
which all the Hellenic peoples could
meet in peaceful competition, so this
modern athletic movement starting
from Bagnio has spread to other far
eastern peoples, and has given them
not only ground for friendly meeting
but also basis for genuine respect
and mutual understanding.

new GERMAN ARMY
GROWING UNTIL IT
ALARMSALL ALLIES
More than One Hundred Thousand
Volunteers are Taking Place
of Old Forces

Coblenz, Feb. 4 ASSOCIATED Press
According. to estimates made by in
telligence officers of the American
Third Army based upon reports from
all parts of Germany, the organized
German Army now in various depots
numbers from 100000 to 100000 men.
The reports indicate that these sol
diers are of such morale that they
would hardly be available for opera
| tions of any. extent. The number of
men in the army, reports reaching
Coblenz indicate, is decreasing rap
idly.
The new volunteer army numbers
between 100000 and 100000 men of
doubtful morale, as they have not yet
been organized fully nor tested fair
ly. The volunteer army which is be-
/ ing organized for the purpose of stop
ping Polish and Bolshevist invasions
of German territory has 10000 men
Oder. Many volunteer battalions al
so are reported moving eastward.
The. organized German Army con-
sists of the classes of 1898 and 1899,
/ less some men discharged because
they live in occupied territory, less
large numbers of deserters land less
some discharged according to demobi-
! lization plans. The officers and nom
commissioned officers of this army in
tend to remain permanently in the
service.
Evidence is said to be conclusive
that the troops now in the depots
have assumed the attitude Of drawing
their pay and doing as little as pos
sible until they are discharged.
In arriving at the number of men
in the organized army, the troops
which have been unable to return
from the eastern front are disregard
ed, as they generally come from the
elder classes and are being discharged
as soon as they reach Germany. No
account has been taken of the naval
units, which are demoralized and dis
banding rapidly.
