perity.
Those who had spoken in the debate,
the Premier pointed ous, had criticized
he details of the treaty, which must be
considered accepted or rejected as
" hole, whether the instrument was help
frl or harmful to France. The treaty
was "the ensemble OF possibilities"
which was worth what the future ruling
classes of France would make 1t by their
.,bor.
The Chambers apparent determination
to prolong the debate as long as possible
was not deferred by the Premier's re-
quests for vote on the treaty today,
for while NJ. Clemenceau was speaking
several Deputies inscribed their names
on President Deschanel list as partici-
pants in the debate. NJ. Clemenceau
warned the Chamber that II 1t refused
to ratify the treaty 1t would make 1t an
instrument OF death to France, while II
the Chamber ratified the instrument
France would become imbued with its
spirit, which would mean the life and
resurrection of the country.
Asked by Senator Monsservin as to the
future of France NJ. Slemenceau said:
"Our new frontiers. We must be ready
to safeguard them with something else
besides legal subleties. A treaty is
nothing unless nation has the will to
see that its clauses and spirit are OBJ
served. France must produce men, and
strong men, steeled against weakness
and vacillation."

LONDON, Sept 25.-Substantial proof
exists that the German Government is
eleverly planning a financial coup
through a complete revision of the
monetary system by issuing new repub-
lie money and using the new money to
purchase the old imperial coinage and
paper.
As reported in London. this scheme is
now developing under the guidance of
International bankers All European
countries anticipate the new Issue will
be recognized by the allied Governments
as value approximating 80 marks to

would be enabled to buy the outstanding
currency, now valued at 1870 marks to
the pound. thus vastly improving Ger
msny's prospects of rehabilitating trade
and establishing future indemnity pay
ments upon something like a reasonable
basis.
Judging, by the tone of recent state
ments of British banking officials this
scheme meets favor. They realize that
on the present basis Germany win never
recover stability and that she viii con-

ARMENIA MAY CEDE
PROVINCE BY TREATY
1t Would Glue Zangezur to

PARIS, Sept 25.--Advices to the
American Red Cross from Erivan say
that Col. William Haskell. high COM
missioner of the four great powers
in Armenia, and the Secretary of State
for the Ajerbaijan Republic have drawn
up a treaty under which Armenia cedes
the province of Zangezur to Ajerbaijan
In return for the withdrawal Of Kurd-
ish and Tartar troops from the eastern
and southern fronts of Armenia.
Tho treaty has not yet been pre-
sented to the Armenian parliament,

opposition as Zangezur, ''The Cradle

Armenians since ZOO B. c.. and also

but In every such case a unanimous
vote of tho council is necessary. In
asmuch as tho United States Is
permanent member of the council
her vote Is necessary to every active
policy OF the league and therefore
the single vote OF the United States
always counts six, so far as the
votes OF the British Empire are con-
cerned.
Out Of doors, that Is to say, out
Of tho legislative halls, there is no
organized opposition to this treaty
except among the people who tried to
defeat the purposes of this Govern
ment in the war. Hyphen Is the
knife that is being stuck into this
document. The issue is clearly
drawn, because, inasmuch as we are

Magma Chsrta for Labor.
II we do not have this treaty OF
peace labor will continue to be not
what II ought to be, a human func-
ton, but a purchasable commodity
throughout the world. There Is in
corporated in the articles Of this great
treaty a magma charta for labor.
There is set up a means of periodical
examination OF the conditions of
labor all over the world, protecting
the labor of women and children that
have not the physical endurance to
endure the burden put on them, and
It Is the duty of the nations of the
world to study the methods OF labor
and raise the scale OF human labor. &.
You know what that means.
We have not done our full duty in
regard to the amelloration of the
conditions of labor In America, but
the conditions hero are better than
anywhere else, and we now have an
opportunity to exercise our full In
huence to raise the standard every
where to the levels we have tried
to raise In this country, and also as
between those who employ labor and
those who labor. The heart of the
world has never got into this busi-
ness, the conscience has never been
released along these lines In regard
to the Improvement of labor, and
more than that, unless we find some
method, such as have been abiding
to, we will not have released the real
energy Of labor.
Men are not gong 10 WORK anu

they feel they are not justly treated.
and IL you want to realize the real
wealth of this country then bring
about the human relationship be-
tween employers and employees
which will make them colaborers and

that is open to US under and through
the instrumentaiity of the League OF
Nations and under this great treaty.

TeIegraphs Wilson He viii
Glue Full Support.


WASHINGTON, Sept. Ex-senator Ash
urst (Ariz.). Democrat. in a telegram to-
day to President Wilson, declared he be-
lleved he could render the country and
the world "a great service by voting for
the peace treaty without amendment or
reservation" Some Senators have de-
clared Senator Ashurst's position on the
treaty was doubtful and Administration
leaders claimed a distinct advantage in
the fight by reason of his announcement
to-day. Senator Ashurst's message fol-
lows:
Although l have had. as you Of
course know, serious doubts and misgiy-
.ngs as to some parts of the league cove
nant, / am nevertheless convinced that
Germany would obtain n material adj
vantage and would come out of the war
practically n victor were the treaty
amended or were any reservations
adopted To my mind it is the treaty or
no treaty. and l for one are not willing
to assume the frightful responsibility of
preciptating chaos upon the world by
some hazardous amendment or reser-
walton. I have studied this tremendous
question from every angle, and am sure
that at this juncture l can render my
country, indeed the entire civilized world,
great service by voting for the treaty
without amendments or reservation"
Contending that the people of the
United States were entitled above all
else to peace, Senator Smith (Md.) DEM
ocrat. urged the Senate to-day to rat fly
speedily the German treaty, which he de-
scribed, as the first and great practical
step coward accomplishing the peace Of
the World.
Senator Smith declared II was not pos
sible to change a single vote on the floor
by further discussion, and that the prac-
tiCal course was TO hasten a vote. For
my part" said the Senator, II have
never for an instant doubted the wis
dom and duty of ratifying the treaty-as
| submitted promptly and without amend
ment or reservation"
