Opposes Measure PERMITTING
Collective Bargaining of All
Kinds in Agriculture.

Representative Simeon D. Fess,
chairman Of the republican congress
sional committee, has aroused some
resentment among farmers because of
his opposition to . measure which
would specifically permit agriculture
to engage in collective bargaining.
DR.. Fess. in q recent statement, said
he was opposed to exemptions of all
kinds and decided that he would sup
port no measure which did not treat
all alike.
Secretary Lyman of the national
board OF farm organizations has ad-

calling his attention to the oft re-
peated statement Of the organization
that the farmers are not asking for
exemptions or special privileges. but
are simply insisting on a generally
recognized right to collectively bar

Our Expansion Overseas.
Many Opponents in Europe.

There are many elements in Europe
who wish to see the treaty break
down and the league of nations dis
appear. During the last i've months
our allies have been growing weaker.
from military point Of view, due to
the necessity OF demobilizing their
armies. while at the same time the
reactionary group IN Germany has
been growing in strength through the
hope Of yet securing division Of the
allies.
"At the time left Europe, a month
ago. German militarism had already
re-established itself as a well-disci-
plined, well-oficered army Of at least
100000 men, largely congregated on
the Polish frontier. and even defyfng
the government at Berlin. Under the
alarm of this danger, the Poles, in the
midst of the greatest economic misery
that a nation ever knew. have been
trying to create an army Of 100000
men for their protection from the
Germans on the one side and the boil
sheviki on the other. II the treaty Is
ratified the German army will be re-
duced to 100000 men and dispersed
over Germany, and their extra arma-
ment destroyed. The failure Of the
treaty means the invasion Of the Pol
ish state.

TREATIES TOTAL
If LEAGUE FALLS
Herbert Hoover Tells Stu
dents at Stanford U. Each
Is Essential for Peace.

PALO ALTO. October 4.-'If the
league Of nations is to break down,
we must at once prepare to nght,"
Herbert Hoover. formerly economic
director for the supreme war coun-
Gil, told the students Of Stanford Uni
versity in an address he delivered
hero.
The peace treaties. he said, cannot
be carried out without the league. II
the league falls the treaties also fall.
If the balance Of power is to sup
plant the league Of nations, we will
have torn asunder the only hope that
Europe will not break into further
wars Of races. classes and combina-
tions that will take civilization back
to the middle ages.
II am confident that IL we attempt
to revise the treaty we shall tread
road through European chaos. If we
manage to keep our soldiers out of it
we will not escape fearful economic
losses.
What Peace Without q. S. Means.
1.-The allies may, themselves. revise
this treaty without us and then as
semble a council of nations Of their
own in an endeavor to solve the prob
lens OF Europe. 1t would be a coun-
Gil Of Europe and in the midst Of
these terrible times, considering the
debts they owe us. the material they
must have from us or starve, would
rather that we be represented therein
less 1t become a league Of Europe
against the western hemisphere. A
peace without US means more Army
and Navy for us. the old treadmill Of
taxes and dangers for U.S."
Mr.. Hoover said that few people
seem to realize the desperation to
which Europe has been reduced.
During the coming winter some of
them will look with longing eyes to
this rich, fat nation, with its surplus
Of every human necessity" he said.
I'VE cannot fiddle while Rome burns.
If we believe we can see our neigh
bors return to another thirty years
war through the breakdown of this
treaty, and we still maintain our
progress. it is the egotism Of insan-
ity.
Our Expansion Overseas.
Our expansion overseas has en-
tangled US for good or i'll. and stand
for an honest attempt to join with
Europe's better spirits to prevent
these entanglements from involving
US In war. We are not dealing with
perfection; we are dealing with the
lesser Of evils.
FOR US to refuse to enter into a
Joint attempt with the well thinking
sections Of a large part of the world
to establish continuing moral con-
science against war is the utmost
folly In our own interests"
Pointing out the likelihood that some
European nations will again be
plunged into war with their neigh.
bors. Mr.. Hoover referred to a proba :
bility Of the invasion Of Poland II the
treaty failed. He said:

Treaty by No Means Perfect.

THE treaty finally agreed upon at
Paris is by no means perfect" declared
Mr.. Hoover, adding that he saw no
method by which It could have been
made perfect under the circumstances.
He pointed out that scores Of inter-
national wrongs which breed war ex-
listed In the world before the confer
ence was held. OF these. he said, the
peace conference corrected some, but
he predicted It would take perhaps
100 years to correct them all.
TT is often overlooked that this
was not a conference to settle the
wrongs committed by allies or neu-
trails. but by the enemy only" said
Mr.. Hoover. 'It was Germany's
wrongs that were on the operating
table. It would have been beautiful
to have all the international wrongs
on the table. but this Is not q perfect
world. If this had been attempted
the conference would have broken up
into quarrels among the allies and
Germany would have been handed
again the domination Of Europe. The
old guard in Germany hoped and ex-
pected this would result; up to date
they have been disappointed.

Great Things Accomplished.

mo one could be more disappoint-
ed than the American delegation that
some great wrongs that were the re-
suit Of the secret treaties that had
been written in times of great des-
peratton among the original allies
were not eradicated
Greater things were accomplished
by this conference than by any other
in history. The military oligarchies
Of Germany. Austria and Turkey
were dissolved, and II peace is rati-
fied IN time they will be disarrmed.
and thus paramount menace to us
and the world will be destroyed"
Asserting that the peace confer
ence endeavored to remove as many
Of the immediate causes of war as
possible. Mr. Hoover said that in the
league Of nations there could be hope
that the wrongs among other peoples
could be brought up for discussion
and negotiation. Pointing out that
military force Of the league could
be used to defend a country against
invasion, Mr.. Hoover said that for
this unanimous consent is required,
and, he added. the consent must
mean the United States Congress on
our side"
