nant in the treaty, but it is to have nc
loving forve behind it, because the
peace which it is normally to preserve
is to be patched-up compromise un-
supported by the sincere approval of
those who made it.
France is to be left naked to her
enemies, in spite of the gratitude
the rest of the allies owe her. Poland
is to be abandoned without Danzig
as an outlet to the sea, while Jugo-
Slavia is not to retain Fiume. Ger
many is to triumph in the terms Of the
treaty and retain power to defeat the
purposes of the war. Germany is to
combine with bolshevism, and the
league of nations will be helpless to
maintain justice and stability in the
new states to be carved out of the old
empires, One correspondent sounds
the alarm that American capitalists
are seeking to have terms made with
the bolsheviki in Russia so that they
can exploit that country.
The Day.of-Judgment Tone.
These reports and criticisms sound
as if they were written in the heated
atmosphere of French army club.
They have the day-of- judgment tone
of a military critic who is in the fiat
tering confidence of some military
headquarters. They do not deal with
the real difficulties of the situation.
They imply such motives and igno-
rance in the leading negotiators as
to impair much of the persuasive
force of their conclusions.
One may admit that a great mis-
take was made in not sending large
armies to Archangel and Vladivostok
to establish an eastern front in Rus
sia during the war. Had this been
done bolshevism could have been then
repressed and an opportunity for a
Russian constituent assembly and pop
ular government could have been Sc
cured. But that is past history and
the conference at Paris is dealing
with the present conditions. One of
these is the difficulty of maintaining
large armies at this juncture to en-
ter upon a military crusade against
bolshevism in Russia.

All the allies hope to do is to pre-

1t will probably burn itself out in
Russia because of its impossible and
untitled promises.

provisions for her safety is not by any
means so clear as these cocksure
statesmen and correspondent would
have their readers believe. They

"A PLEA"

Your letter, Mother, came today and
made me mighty glad,
1t always cheers me up lot, to hear
from you and Dad.
I've read it through a dozen times; |
know it all by heart,
And yet | feel you ended it before
you got start.
There's nothing new of interest to
write about, you say;
Believe me, Mother, when you've
been in the trenches night and day
And midst raining hell of she'll,
you've fought your very best,
1t isn't new, but old news that will
give fellow rest.
So Pm hungry just to learn if old
Bill Spivens sold his COW
The one that always kicked so much
or if he has her now,
And, tell me, has our old dog Prince
had many recent fights,
And does oud Tom-cat still insist on
roaming round at nights?
Has Andy Jones compelled Jim Smith
to pop the question yet,
Or does he still 90 around each week
and set and set and set?
Is Charley Spriggs still keeping books
at old man Snellvin's store,
And do the boys go fishing in the riv-
er any more?
I'd like to know just how our old
baseball team gets along,
Does Buono still give lectures on ze
noble art of song?
Has little brother Fred licked that
tough kid in Nealy's block,
And are the chimes still working in
our old Colonial clock?
And dees-but must stop right here.
I'm sure that you can see
It's news of "homey" things that does
the most to interest me-.
I'm fed up with thrills and horrows
such as fleck wars bloody foam,
And what | need to rest me most is
news from back home.

The summoning of the George
Washington will place the President
in such a position, it is pointed out,
that he cannot be embarrassed by hav-
ing to wait for the transport should
the time come when he might wish,
owing to failure of the peace dele
gates to agree on unwarranted delay
in finding a settlement of the peace
question, to withdraw from the dis
cussions.
The belief is common that Presi-
dent Wilson will not hesitate to take
definite action if a deadlock is &C
tually reached.
If, however, the council of four
succeeds in reaching an an adjust

Wilson for a longer time is deemed
advisable, the George Washington

of troops to the home land, and would

Taft Says Rhine Frontier
Would Only Weaken France
Contends Peace Council Plans Better Protection Than Is Pro-
vded by the Demands of Her Military SraegistsScouts
Pessmstic Prophecies That Reported Differences May Break
Up the Conference.
By WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT.

charge the failure to protect her to
the ideal of President Wilson. The
ideal is that of self determination
which prevents the transfer to French
sovereignty of territory always Ger
man in order to advance the French
frontier to the Rhine.
1t does not need a very high ideal
to show the lack of wisdom of such
a proposal Common sense teaches
that such transfer instead of ulti-
matcly helping France will weaken
her. It will be a constant irritant to
Germany, as Alsace-Lorraine has
been to France since 1871.
Better Protection to France.
The razing of fortresses on the
German front, the enforced limit of
German armament, the restriction
upon German conscription, the appro-
priation of the German navy, the tax
ing over of German guns and the
united power of the league of ma
tions to defend France and restrain
Germany will in the long run be far
better protection to French territory
and independence than what France
now seeks at instance of her military
strategists.
The hesitation over Danzig is re-
garded as another damning proof of
weak yielding to German turbulence.
Danzig is German city. The people
object to Polish sovereignty. 1t is the
only practical port of access to the
sea for Poland. Can it be made a
free port for full use by Poland with
out complete sovereignty? This is
being argued in the conference. 1t is
not a question which answers itself,
One may differ with the statesmen,
correspondents and critics and still
not be guilty of basely betraying Po-
land or trucking to Germany. A sim
liar question is presented as to Fiume
between the Italiars and the Jugo-
slavs.
Pessimistic Prophecies Usual.
1t is reported that these differences
may break up the conference. Pes
simistic prophecies like this are un-
usual in respect to every such con-
gress. Often the participants them
selves, completely discouraged, are
responsible for them. Yet, renewing
the negotiations, they agree.
Meantime the league will stay
dead until the treaty is agreed upon,
for we may be reasonably sure that
until we have a treaty we'll not have
a covenant. We optlmists will con-
tinue to hope that when the treaty
becomes-a living thing it will Iimpart
life to the covenant. But we should
be prepared for renewed interments
of the league, which, dead or alive,
with it's ideals, according to these crit
les, somehow wickedly delays the
treaty..

F|GHT OCT. A
 NOW ASSURED

With definite assurance from the owners Of the Grand theater that it will be turned over to O. s. French and Frank Loughrey, promoters of the new boxing program in the War ren district, when they stage their first card on October 24, and with s letter from Earl Mohan, manager Of Steve Dalton, Of Los Angeles. to the effect that he will box Lougherv and Chambers whenever the dates are ar. ranged, the fights which have bean announced by the promoters became certain yesterday.
 Dalton is said to be one of the clev- crest and hardest hitting boxers of his weight on the coast During the past few months he has been taking the measure of practically everyone who opposed him. and French is of the belief that a bout between him and Loughery or him and Chambers would be one of the biggest drawing cards ever dealt in the district. Mo hans letter to French follows, in part:
 q understand that you are going to handle the fights. Well, any time you want any of my stable just phone 953 Tucson, or write Tenth and Fifth avenue, M. and M pool hall. I have Steve Dalton, the best welter weight in the country coming down, and would like to have him box Cham bers and Loughery."
 The other bouts of the card follow:
 Kid Walther of Douglas will box Johnny Hughes for six rounds in the semi-final
 Johnny Meyers will probably be matched with Kid Conte of Douglas.

Announcement was made last night by the committee in charge of Pis- bees part in the Fl Phoenix road race on Nov. 2 that collections of this city's share of the purse have been so gratifying that the entire amount. 5000, will have been raised by to- night.

 The meeting last evening was at tended 'by A. H. Gardener, secretary of the Tombstone chamber of com merce, and A. Karger, also of Tomb stone, who reported that collections in that city were also going along swimmingly.
 In addition to the Bisbee entry, Dr. L. D. Rickett's Packard, which will be driven by Downs, two other appli- cations have been made, thus assur- ing this city of three representatives in the classic.
