Of the area In question shall be the
principal consideration.
~. Does the League mean a Super.
natisn2
A. No. It interferes in no way with
any Nations Sovereignty, except to
limit Its power to attack other nations
~. Can any Nation withdraw when
n WIshesf
A. Yes. The League is Advisory
and Cooperative. not coercive.

Justice and National Honor7
A No. 1t puts Reason before Vic.

"a. Does not tho League take away
the Constitutional right Of Congress 70
declare war;
A. No. The League can advise war;
Congress alone can Declare war.
IS. Does Il destroy the Monroe Doc.
trine7
A. Exactly the contrary. For the
first time In history the other nations
recognize the Monroe Doctrine: and
extend II to all the world.
10. Does Il not interfere with Treaty

A. No. 1t is Treaty. We can make
any Treaty we please.
II. Would we have had the Great

A. No. That War cost the world
over 100000 lives and 5000. 0O0. 0OC
dollars.
10. OF what Importance 10 the

A. It Is the greatest deed Of man
kind In the history Of the world.
10. Has not anyone right to oh
ject to the League7
A. Yes. This is q free country. Any
one has right to any opinion hs
chooses.
70. Why 10 the League so bitteri,
epposed by feW2
A. Because, unfortunately, any
Treaty or League must be made by the
President, and a President is chosen
BY a political party and many mem
bers of the opposite Party think they
must decry whatever he does.
The council, the chief governing
body Of the League. cannot take
action without unanimous decision o.
its members and since the United
States will have a representative IL
the Council our interest will be pro
tected there. We hear 1t said that the
League is formed for the benefit Of
Great Britain or Japan or some othel
one nation. This Is not true. All the
nations will gain by 1t. not, only tbs
great nations such as the United
States, Great Britain, France, japan
and Italy, but the little nations which
in the past have been oppressed BY
their big neighbors. The international
court will give an opportunity for tbs
settlement Of old grievances which
have long troubled the peoples Of the
world.
II has been said that the League
will interfere with the Monroe Doc
trfne, but the League Covenant ex
pressly protects this Doctrine. In fact
through the Covenant the Monroe Doc
trine receives recognition throughout
the world and its principles become
forever established.

JUDGE THOMAS
 DIRECTS INQUIRY

Hartford, Jan. 16.---The story told by two, Norwich men in the United States district court in this city yes terday led Judge Edwin s. Thomas to direct District Attorney John F. Cros- by to find out why government agents were employing Gisguises as civilians and then arrestirg men for procuring liquor for sailors in the United States service.
 Frank Guyette and Lewis Vincent, of Norwich, were before the court on Ia plea Of guilty to getting liquor for a sailor. Guyette said that on Sat urday night near the Norwich rail- road station he was approached by a man bundled up in an overcoat who said he was freezing to death and wanted Guyette to buy him half pnit of liquor. Guyette took the money, purchased the liquor, and when he delivered it the man threw open his coat, displayed the uniform | of sailor and the b oadge of a govern meth agent and placed Guyette under arrest. Vincent told practically the same story.

BIC BERTHAS" DEMANDED BY PARIS FOR DISPLAY IN COuCORDE PLACE
These Monster Guns Which R0mharied the City and for Which Purpose They Were Constructed Are Desired as Souvenirs and Reminders of Hun FrightfuIness for Flu ture Generations

Paris, Dec. 15 - Correspondence of The Associated Press) - The French people want one of the Ger man Big Berthas" or super-cannon which bombarded Paris to display in the Place de la Concorde as a souve- mir of German frightfulness that fail ed of it's purpose to destroy French morale.
 The armistice does not stipulate that one of these instruments shall be surrendered but there is a move ment to urge the government to de- mand it. There is no expectation that the Germans will include one of these weapons among the 2,50O guns they are required to give up under the armistice.
 Facts obtained by military experts show that the first guns that fired upon Paris on March 23, last, num- bered three. They were installed near Mont-Joie, in the forest of Saint
 road spur leading out of Laon while
 the third was little further east in
 the vicinity of Creepy.
 According to the latest informa-
 tion, the guns were pointed at an
 angle of more than 65 degrees a charge of 300 pounds of powder pro-
 polling the projectile to height of 100,O 900 it. (nearly 19 miles, on its mur- derous mission to Paris. With every shot 10 or 12 marine guns of 16 or 17-inch calibre fired simultaneously upon targets unknown in 0r6ar tC | conceal the location of supercannon The shell was of 210 millimetre cali 1 bre (about eight inches). It weighed 300 pounds but the charge of explo- | sive contained therein varied be- tween 30 and 40 pounds.
 In the manufacture of the shell re- sided an innovation of the Germans l It is said to have been made ot | special steel treated with tungster so as to offer the maximum of resist | ance for a minimum of weight The | guns only protection was in camou-
