UNABLE TO AGREE.

The NeW York Worlds CORE
spondent, writing from Washing
ton, ON the 18Th, says:
The Republican Senator's have
not been able TO get together on the
reservations to the peace treaty,
either mentally or physically.
The heralded conference sched-
uled for to-day at which a program
was TO be started on, failed to ma
terialiZe. Last night and today a
few groups of two and three Sena-
tors foregathered, but the results
were as scattering as the confer
ences, and tonight it is apparent
that hope OF caucus determination
has gone glimmering and that the
whole plan of amendments and res
ervations will have TO be worked
out through long sessions of the
Foreign Relations Committee.
The shortest period prophesied
for the working out of a report for
the Senate 10 vote on is a month,
and various Republican members
admit that three months is better
guess.
All this causes great satisfaction
TO the Democrats, who want the
treaty ratified as ii stands. They
have said from tile beginning that
the Republicans would never be
able to agree on the notifications
they were prepared to fight for to
{, finish.
The Republicans, while admit
ing that not much progress has been
made, insist tina, ultimately changes
in the peace treaty WILDE offered
that the Senate cannot refuse.

grave confront us. For there are
now hundred and ten million of

the two hundred million, that will

gives us new points Of view, new
points of contact, and takes us out

The lectures this year, by far the
most valuable part of the Chautau-

suggestive, dealing as they did with
present day social, civic, political,
national and worldwide problems
in which all should feel deep
interest.

vFT0Es AGRICULTURAL BILL.

The President on the 18th vetoed
the Agricultural Appropriation bill
CARRYING a repeal of the Daylight
Saving Act, of March 10, 1918. He
realized, he said, the grave incon-
venicnce that MAY arise from the
postponment of the agricultural ap-
preparation but felt Obliged to with
hold his signature because of the
repeal of the Daylight act which he
considered wise and highly bene-
fetal law. u believe" says The
President in his veto message, that
the repeal of the act referred to
would be of very grave inconven-
icnce TO the country, and l think
that | am justified in saying that it
would constitute something more
than an Inconvenience. 1t would
involve serious economic loss.
The Act of March 10, 1913, to save
daylight resulted not only from 4
careful study of industrial condi-
lions by competent men familiar
with the business operations O! the
country, but also from observations
cf the happy and beneficial conse-
quences of similar legislation in
other countries where legislation of
this character has been for some
time in operation and where it has
resulted, as the Act of March 49,,
1913, has resulted, in the United
States, in substantial economies.
That Act was intended TO place the
chief business activities of the
country as nearly as might be with
in the limits of daylight throughout
the year. 1t resulted in very great
economies OF fuel and in subslan-
tial economies of energy, because
of the very different effect of work
done in the daylight and work done
by artificial light. 1t, moreover,
served the daily convenience of the
many communities of the country
in Il way which gave all but univer-
sal satisfaction, and the overwhclm-
ing testimony of its value which has
come TO me convinces me that |
should not be justified in acquicsc-
ing i'll its repeal"

The OPEN ROAD.

Statisticians have figured that the
average dividends on farming have
been % ia per cent. Farming is a
business, and requires an invest
ment of capital. A business that
pays but 3 ~ per cent on the in
yestment is a poor business. And
we venture the assertion that if the
farmers had charged against the
farm income, reasonable salaries
for management, reasonable wages
for the work done by the members
Of his family, then the average farm
dividend would be much less than
5 1-2 per cent.
These things will explain in part
the fact that America haSm illionS
of acres of tillable land unilnpro ved
and unused. They will also cX-
pain in part the increasing cost of
living.
The farmer is entitled TO better
dividends. He must have better
dividends if sufficient number TO
feed us produce food. Farm divi-
dends must be sufficiently attrac-
tive TO draw into cultivation more
land. And until this happens there
will be no cheap food. But it is
improbable that The increase in
farms will more than keep pace
with the increasing demand. Cen
orally speaking, therefore, there
will be no return TO the low prices
we once knew. Until the farmer
can produce more on the same
acreage, or produce more without
a proportionate increase in cost to
him, and thus be able TO make his
dividends on a lower selling price,
consumers will continue to pay
larger and larger proportion Of
their income for food.
The farmer who can find The way
TO increase his production by better
methods has an open road 10 for
tune.

PRESIDENT PRESENTS PEACE TREATY.

In the presence of distinguished
audience gathered in the Senate
chamber on the 10Th, President Will
son laid the peace treaty before the
Senate with the solemn assurance
that the League Of Nations covenant
is practical necessity" in carry
ing out the ''world settlement"
reached at Versailles.
He said it would not be possible
for him to summarize or TO construe
the manifold provisions of the
treaty and covenant in the address
he then proposed to make, but that
his services and all the information
he possessed would be at the dis
posal Of the Senate or its commit
tee on Foreign Relations at any time
either informally or in session as
the Senate or Committee might pre-
fer.
He characterized the League as
"thc practical statesman's hope Of
success and "the only hope Of
mankind" His associates in the
Council, after long months of strug-
gle with intricate problems, saw ii
was the hope of the world, and that
hope they did not dare to disap-
point"
"Thc most practical of the con-
fcrees," he said, 'were at last the
most ready TO refer TO the League of
Nations the superintendent of all
the interests which did not admit
of immediate determination. Of all
administrative problems which were
10 require a continuing oversight
What had seemed counsel of per-
lection had come to seem a counsel
of necessity"
"Dare we reject it and break the
heart OF the world?" he asked.
Of the treaty in general he de.
clared "it squares as a whole with
the principles agreed upon as the
basis Of peace. as well As with the
practical possibilities of the inter-
national situations which had to be
faced and dealt with as facts"
at was impossible to accommo-
date the interests of so great body
of nations" he explained, with
out many minor compromises. The
treaty as a result is not exactly
what we would have written. II is
probably not what any one of the
national delegations would have
written. think that ii will
be found that the compromises
which were accepted as inevitable
nowhere cut 10 the heart of any
principle"
He repeated his faith that the
American soldiers had gone abroad
in a crusa1ing spirit and that il was
the duty of the peace delegation TO
carry that spirit TO fulfilment. at
was our duty TO do everything" he
added, chat was within our pow
cr TO make the triumph of freedom
and right lasting triumph"
America, he insisted, cannot keep
out Of world affairs. america may
be said to have just reached her
majority as world power" he re-
marked. "Our isolation ended
twenty years ago. - The only
question is whether we can refuse
the moral leadership that is offered
us, whether we shall accept or re-
ject the confidence of the world"
at has come about by no plan
of our conceiving, but by the hand
Of God, who led us into this way.
We cannot turn back. We can only
60 forward, with lifted eyes and
freshened spirit TO follow the Wis
ion. II was of This that we dream
ed at our birth. America shall in
truth show the way. The light
streams upon the path ahead il no.
