Aboard President Wilson's Special
Traln-A continuous ovation along tbs

Hay back toward the capital was given
20 President Wilson as he came
toward the end of his month daylong
speaking tour in behalf of the League
OF Nations. California, particularly
the delightful city Of Los Angeles, went
wild in its enthusiasm for him and his
advocacy Of the League, and 1t was
IN that state, perhaps, that he did his

Hiram Johnson, California's former
governor, now her United States sena.
tor, and considered by her as the most
likely Republican candidate for the
presidency In 1920, had before the ar
rival Of President Wilson, convinced
a great number Of citizens that the
League as at present formulated was
not a good thing. He had told them
fhat the United States, because Of It
would be drawn into every petty
European quarrel; he argued that we
would lose our sovereignty by Joining
with the European nations. He had
blamed the president for asserting to
the possession by Japan Of the PENN
sula of Shan Tung in China.
The Adair County news. [volume] (Columbia, Ky.) 1897-1987, 1919-11-12

But Mr.. Wilson, with clear logic and
with compelling eloquence, answered
10 the entire satisfaction Of Califor-
MAS people every objection which
Senator johnson had made to the
League. And thousands OF the states
citizens deserted the johnson stand

they came forward and said, I'VE

there probably never will be another
