NOT A HARD AND FAST
PACT WITH THE FRENCH
May Take Years for the Society Of

Aggression in the Meantime a Men
ace to the French Republic, Says
Paris Paper.

Paris-Explaining the agreement
entered into by the United States and
Great Britain to come to the aid of
France in case Of unprovoked agrees
sion by Germany, the Petit Parisien
says the treaty will remain in force
only until the League Of Nations de-
cides that the league itself is sniff
cient guarantee against aggression.
this kind is made public directly after
"For the first time a convention of
it's conclusion" says the Parisien.
This may be called an act of diplo-
macy, accomplished in the face of the
whole world; one, all the more de-
cisive, for. not being kept secret in
the chancellories. The circumstances
relative to its conclusion are known.
The League of Nations cannot oper-
ate Immediately. Years may go be-
fore it really comes into force, and
in the meantime France may again be
the victim Of aggression. The dan
ger Of aggression menaces France
more than any country which is a
member of the league, America be-
ing far away, and England more than
ever protected by the sea.
"Mr. Wilson and Mr.. Lloyd-G George
realized that France needed an i'm
mediate guarantee, the simple proc
lamation Of which would keep in
check any desire for aggression. The
agreement published answers the pur-
pose:; it will come into force If an
:unprovoked act Of aggression is made
against France. But who could inn
agine our country capable Of provok-
ing a war? The treaty does not i'm
pose any obligation on France, but her
allies have bound themselves by it to
provide her with the guarantees they
deemed to be necessary.

Mexico City.-A group of prominent
Mexican business men have formed a
club to boost Ambassador Bonilla as
a presidential candidate against Obre-
gon and Gonzales. Bonilla is thought
to have a strong chance of winning, as
majority Of Mexicans are tired Of
revolution, and fear another one will
be forced upon the country if either
of the other candidates are elected.
They realize that the United States
will not permit another revolution and
that it is impossible to avoid it if

NO INTENTION OF MAKING IT
MORE STRINGENT
MAKING NO PLANS FOR
SEARCH AND SEIZURE
Wet Leaders Intend Making that One
Of Their Chief Points Of Attack
Would confiscate the Rich Mans
Store of Wet Goods in Justice to
the Poor.

Washington.-Four chief points Of
attack are planned by the wet lead
ers on the national prohibition bill
now pending in the house. These
will include an attempt to increase
the alcoholic contents of beverages,
to strike out the wartime prohibit
ton section, to elucidate the term
unfit as applied to alcohol used
in patent medicines, and to insert a
section into the bill providing for
the search and seizure of residences.
The insertion of this last named
section, they assert, would be in the
interest of justice to the poor man
by preventing the rich from retaining
q private stock.
Members of the house judiciary
committee deny the rumor that II is
the intention of the committee to
make the bill more stringent or to
insert new sections. The committee
is satisfied with the pending bill and
it appears to have the sanction Of
the dry members of the house, and
they recognize that to attempt to
make the bill more stringent would
arouse the antagonism from por-
ton of their own force.
The fight Of the "wets" against
the bill will begin in an attempt to
increase the limitation placed on al
cohol used in beverages, from one
half Of per cent to TX per cent.
This would, of course, affect beer.
The attempt to strike out the sec
ition affecting wartime prohibition
may have the support Of admins
tration democrats, even from dry
territory, as President Wilson first
made the suggestion that the pres
ent wartime ban be lifted. Already
At is said that Claud Kitchin, fer
mer democratic leader, will try to
muster strength to have the present
wartime law rescinded.

the American Draft Of the Treaty
with the Germans.

New York.-When President Wilson
stepped from the gangplank Of the
George Washington at the American
Hamburg pier at Hoboken he was well
coined by mass of ten thousand
school children who greeted the
chief executive with the strains Of the
national anthem. Through the lines
of the children the president passed
to the ferry which carried him across
the river. He arrived in New York
at Ais p. M, where he was greeted
by the official reception committee
headed by Governor Smith and Mayor
Hylan. From the ferry terminal to
Carnegie hall, a distance Of about
three miles, the presidential party
passed through streets lined with
cheering thousands Of men, women
and children who thronged the side
walks, and filled every available win.
dow and roof-top.
In his first speech delivered on
American soil since the peace treaty
was signed, the president declared
that the peace concluded at Paris was
"a just peace which, il it can be pre-
served, will safeguard the world from
unnecessary bloodshed." He brought
with him the American draft Of the
German peace treaty and several
protocols. The German treaty makes
$50 printed pages with French and
English texts side by SIDE It differs
in many respects from the original
draft which was published in the
United States, but in essentials 1t fol-
lows the original draft.
The only reference the president
made in his New York speech to his
political opponents was when in re-
ferring to the negotiations at Paris,
he said: ut is privilege beyond
all computation for man, whether
in a great capacity OF small ca
pacity, to take part in the counsels
and in the resolutions of people like
this. am afraid some people, some
persons, do not understand that Wis
ion. They do not see it. They have
looked too much upon the ground.
They have thought too much OF the In
terests that were near them, and they
have not listened to the voices Of their
neighbors."
