ON BOARD THE PRESIDENTS
SPECIAL TRAIN. Sept. 27.-President
Wilson's tour to the coast was un-
douhtedly a personal triumph, but the
question whether it was D. triumph for
the President Of the United States or
tor the league of nations is still an
open one. The evidence indicates it
was more triumph for the President
as President than for the cause he
advocated.
The assertion probably will go un-
controvertcd that the tour would not
have been triumph had it not been
tor the women and the children. In
many instances the men were un-
demonstrative, but the women and
children never.
Young America was there with flag
and shout. He did not know anything
about the league of nations, nor did
he care & copper about the idea. But
he was out of school for the day on
account Of the presence Of the Presi-
dent Of the United States. He and
his little sister were a constant Joy
to the President and Mrs. Wilson. And
when the Presidents car had passed q
given point, thousands Of wrcgling
boys and girls sifted past the out
stretched clubs of the guardians of
zen Of the country with wild acclaim.
The tribute was a splendid one, and
brought tears to the eyes Of the Chief
Executive.
These boys and girls---these are
my clients. am speaking for them .
said the President to his Denver
audience.
Not a Flat Failure
From the FIRST address at Columbus
until he wcarily obcyed the percmptory
order OF Admiral Grayson, his physi-
c'an to end his tour, there was not q
meeting which could truthfully be
called fiat failure. The lack Of en-.
thusiasm in Omaha and Bismarck was
marked and perhaps disappointing, but
the streets were lined with crowds lust
the same and the bad" spots were
forgotten in the memory Of the tre-
mcndous enthusiasm at Seattle, Port
land. Tacoma, Los Angeles and San
Diego.
At Minneapolis, the only place where
as 100000 people stood through a light
drizzle awaiting the coming of the
President from St. Paul. The audi
toriums invariably were filled as soon
as the doors were opened and, at times
when the address was set at an early
hour, as ct Wichita, the hall was full
at Z o'clock in the morning.
AT Oklahoma City, it was said TO-
day, there were 100000 on hand to
welcome the President At both
Wichita and Oklahoma City there was
great disappointment and sympathy
over the illncss Of the President and
the failure to see him.
Non-partisan Welcome
The tour was at season Of year
when people generally had time to

with foreign powers arc pro- German
and Bolshevists, or that they are en-
couraging Bolshvism. The hypocrisy
OF such a charge is evidenced by the
tact that it required the constant press
ure of public opinion to keep the Presi-
dent himself from following the exam
pie of the Bolsheviki in betraying the
Allies and making peace with Germany
IN the midst Of the war. This is a mat
ter of official record. On January s,
l9lo, he indorsed and eulogized the
conduct Of the Russian Bolsheviki in
their trai .orous peace and betrayal Of
the Allies at Brest- Litovsk. lie in
dorsed their terms of peace. He now
claims to be strongly anti-German, but
it was long time before, as the head
OF the American government, he came
to the assistance to civilization in it's
dire need against the German attack.
THE Presidents statements in the
various speeches he has recently made
about the league Of nations are full of
direct misstatements of facts. He said
at Salt Lake City that the league cove
nant did not give six votes to Great
Britain. In the same speech he said
that it did give SIX votes to Great
Britain, but that these six votes were
no more effective than the one given
to the United States. Both Of these
statements were contrary to the facts.
AssembIy's Power Understated
"Hc stated that the assembly of the
league would have no power TIE fact
IS that the assembly of the league ex-
ercises the most colossal powers in
the league government, it being pro-
vided by Article XIV that any contro-
versy of whatever nature between ma
tions may be carried to it by either
party to the controversy. The Pres-
dent says that the assembly merely
talks. This is wholly contrary to the
fact. Article XIV provides in express
terms that it shall decide. Those de-
cisions will be upon questions involv-
ing the life of nations and the well
fare of their people.

Wilson Sets at Rest Rumors
That Ban Is to Be

in December
s. c. ONLY WET HOPE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2G.-While the
supreme court was hearing arguments
tod ~ on the validity of the wartime
pre- hibition act, word went out from the
White House that President Wilson
would not rescind the dry act until
peace formally had been de Jared.
This was expected to set at rest the
ever-recurring rumors that the dry
ban would be lifted by the president,
irrespective of early ratification of the
treaty. Failure of the senate to act
on the treaty at the extra ordinary ses-
sion was regarded by many admins
tration officials as precluding the end
ing of the technical state of war much
before the constitutional prohibition
amendment became effective next jan
uary 16.
Should such prove the case, the only
possibility of 'wet' Christmas
would be for the supreme court to de-
clare the war time act unconstitu-
tional. Arguments on the pending
cases will be concluded tomorrow, but
as the court begins recess Monday, nc
decision is expected until it recon
venes on December s.
The right of congress to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of Intoxicating
liquors was sharply attacked and Wig
orously defended during the argu-
ments.
Elihu Root and others contended that
the war time act and the Volstead en-
forcement measure not only violated
the fifth constitutional amendment
prohibiting the taking of property
without just compensation, but were
| imperative owing to the cessation o.
| hostilities and the demobiliZation O.

| Solicitor General King and william
L. Frierson, assistant attorney genera
for the government, however, arguet
! that state of war still existed anC
that it was congress intent to provid
war time prohibition until the peac
treaty was ratified.
The arguments, which will be con
cluded tomorrow, were in appeal
brought to the supreme court from
Kentucky, where the war time prohi
milton was declared unconstitutiona
and from New York, where fedora

time and the enforcement acts an

ATTEMPT
For Industrial
Peace On Foot

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2O.-Another
effort to bring industrial peace to the
country is to be made, a conference Of
former federal and state officials,
business men and economists, the
personnel of which was announced to-
day at the white house
Unlike the national industrial con-
ference which came to grief over the
question of collective bargaining, the
new body will represent no distinctive
group but will undertake to act in
the interest of the people as a whole.
1t will meet in Washington December
/, the date of the beginning of the
regular session in congress-
In his letter of invitation to the II
men who are to make up the new
gathering, President Wilson said the
new representatives should have con-
cern that our industries may be con-
Quoted with such regard for justice
and fair dealing that the workmen will
feel himself induced to put forth his
best efforts, that the employer will

No procedure was outlined for the
gathering and this. will be determined
by the conference itself No repre-
sentatives of labor were included il
the personnel, nor will there be any
representatives of capital as such
! Secretary of Labor Wilson headed the
| list. which included three former cab
met officers and two former fedora
officials, but the president did no
! appoint any of the men who served il
the first conference.

SUGGEST MEANS FOR
INCREASING OUTPUT
Of COAL IN SUMMER

ST. LOUIS, Ncv. 20.-Reduction of
freight rates on coal during summer
and sliding scale of coal prices, with
lower charges in summer, were adyo-
Gated today in resolutions presented
to the American Mining congress as
means of reducing the prices of coal
and increasing production so that
miners would have continuous work
throughout the year, thereby assisting
in allaying Industrial unrest at the
mines.
A resolution was presented to the
industrial committee urging authori-
ties ito enforce to the limit all existing
laws that deal with anarchy and sedi-
tious utterances and acts"
Speakers urged that congress impose
a heavy tariff on war minerals" i'm
ported to this country to enable owners
of such mines to compete better with
| foreign shipments.
The gold conference submitted a
resolution asking congress to improve
roads in gold mining districts, assert
ing that 80 per cent of the gold mines
| III the United States virtually were in :
accessible.
Physical education was suggested as
a acure for radicalism in an address by
| E. d. Caulkins of Washington, Z. C.
R. D. Hall of New York advocated
better living conditions in mining
towns, asserting that sanitation will
go long way toward relieving the in.

BRITISH PRESS
APPROVES COP.
TREATY ACTION

LONDON. Friday, Nov. 21.-(By the
American Press Association )-Keen
regret, tempered by hope, on the one
hand and outspoken approval of Sena-
tor Lodge and his supporters on the
other hand are the outstanding notes
in the London newspaper comment on
the subject of the United States SEN
ate's action on the Versailles peace
treaty.
The Daily News, which is a warm
advocate of the league of nations and
an admirer of President Wilson, ex-
pressed the thought that, although the
situation is grave, it is not yet desper-
ate, and looks forward to the reintro
duction of the ratification resolution
with the hope that ''the ten days be-
tween now and the next session will
be fraught with issues momentous. foI
| the world"
Short though the interval will be,
the newspaper adds, ''it will be Ions
enoIgh for the true will of America
to assert itself, and long enough fol
the opposing parties in the senate t.
come to an agreement. The world will
await the decision with an anxiety l
need not affect to conceal. A leagu
of nations with which America is no
associated would find its power AM
moral authority lamentably curtailed.
The Morning Post thinks that tn
obvious reason for the senate objeetini
to the covenant of the league of aa
tions was that there are in Americ
still citizens who have robust fait
in their own nation and heartfelt prid
in the sovereign freedom Of tn
United States
when they found their presider
bent on transferring their rights an
independence and suboridnating tn
United States to committee 0
which their country must always be
a minority" the newspaper adds. "thet
, pride of race and nationhood revolted

f the republican party as worthy of FIRE
men and citizens of the great republ
( and refreshing change from the ii
E ternational spirit which has grown sic
a of the native hue Of British patrio
ism."

FRAME BARRACKS
FORT LEAVENWORTH
DESTROYED BY FIRE

LEAVENWORTH, Kas., Nov. 90
Fire of unknown origin broke out in
the exchange building at the disciple
nary barracks at Fort Leavenworth
tonight, and completely destroyed it
within half an hour. The building con-
tained a large amount of army sup
plies and clothing for prisoners. The
loss is estimated at 100000.
The fire spread from the exchange
to the wooden cantonment buildings,
erected two years ago. Fourteen OF
these were destroyed quickly. There
was no adequate water service and
dynamite was used to blow up other
buildings to check the fire.
The cantonment buildings burned
were frame barracks occupied by the
restored battalion, trusty prisoners.
The cell houses within the main
prison enclosure did not take fire. Of
ficers and soldiers in the Fort Leaven-
worth garrison were on duty to hold
the prisoners in check in an emergency
but none arose.

Prince lnspects

IRepubIloan a. p. Leased Wlrel

NEW YORK, Nov. 20-The prince
of Wales spent comparatively idle
day today. There was nothing on his
program except a visit to West Point
where he inspected the cadets, a Wig
orous hour at squash dinner on the
British battle cruiser Renown, and 3
theater party.
The trip to West Point was the big
event of the day andf occupied the
major portion of it. Accompanied by
Lord Grey, the British ambassador,
Major General Organ, commander of
the New York states troops and the
members of his staff, the prince,
dressed in the uniform of a colonel of
the Welsh guards, left New York at
10:45 a. m. An immense crowd
watched his departure and cheered
him.
At Garrison the little river station
where he alighted to take the ferry
for West Point, very pretty picture
was presented. The younger school
children of the Village, ranging in
age from ten to five years. lined the
path from the station to the ferry boat.
The girls were on one side and the
boys on the other and alternate small
hands grasped American and British
flags while the boys used their dis
engaged hands to perform a highly
creditable military salute. The salute
was returned by the prince who
stopped and chatted for a few moments
with the children's teacher. At West
Point the prince was received by q
cavalry escort headed by BrigadieI
General Macarthur, the commandant.
The scene on the historic height:
was more than usually brilliant for tht
sun shone in a cloudless sky and
tipped the cleaning swords and ac
countrements Of the faultlessly march
ing cadets with added splendor.
Il have never seen finer marching
exclaimed the prince as the long, blu
clad lines swung past him. Later tn
cadets had a chance to reciprocate th'
the admiration when the prince ad
dressed them in the assembly hall.
