President VIII Regard
Reservation To Article
10 Rejection OF Treaty

Cheyenne. Wyo-. Sept. 25-Reading
again the proposed senate reserva-
tion TO article 10 Of the league cove
nant. president Wilson declared in an
address here Wednesday that should
any such reservation be adopted he
would be obliged as chief executive
TO regard it as a rejection Of the
treaty.
The president added that rejection
OF the treaty would mean negotiation
Of a separate peace with Germany,
and asserted that such a negotiation
could not change a single item OF
the peace settlement.
The reservation read by the presi-
dent was the same that he laid be-
fore his audience at the salt Lake
City tabernacle BY its provisions.
the United States would assume no
obligation TO protect the territorial
intergrlty Of other nations unless
congress should so decide
1T is as though you said we viii
not join the league now" said the
president, but may join it from time
TO time. We won't promise anything.
but from time TO time we may CO.
operate.
The thing IS unworthy and ridicu-
lous. II means the rejection Of the
treaty, nothing less. The issue is
final. We cannot avoid it. We've
got to make the decision now and.
once made, there can be no turning
back"

PROPER sPoKEsMEN FOR THRIFT.

William A. Day, president of the Equitable
Live Assurance society spoke convlnclngly be-
fore the recent convention Of life insurance
presidents on the imperative need OF national
thrift. The nation is enjoying business pros
perity and this is good. The spending OF money
which has been earned in larger amounts than
ever before is in itself no evil if there is not
wastefulness and if expenditures are not too
prodigal But Mr.. Day says a lot OF money
that has been put into savings is now being
withdrawn from these savings and expended
fer non-essentials Managers of our great saw
irgs funds in the form of life insurance are
proper spokesman for thrift. 1t is only when
the nation is thrifty that it is industriously
prosperous, and it is only when the nation is in
elustrously prosperous that the life insurance
companies can invest their funds safely and
with profit needed to pay their obligations.
There is, apart from the legitimate buying OF all
sorts Of commodities, a certain amount Of reck-
less spending just as there is apart from legitl-
mate business investment certain amount OF
speculative investment. Both of these amounts
are larger than normal and it is altogether in
the interest of safety that they be promptly cur
tailed Buying that is satisfying reasonable
needs and desires will do no harm Reckless
buying, whether of commodities or of expert
mental Investments always is dangerous when
it becomes general Mr. Day voiced the opinion
of the government experts and of most of the
financial authorities who have spoken in calling
for a campaign in behalf of more conservative
use of money, particularly of money that is in
the form of savings.

NONE so BLIND. ETC.

Representative Jefferis, of Nebraska, can
see the reason why the war department purchase
ED nine hundred and forty five thousand saddles
and one million sets of harness for an army that
had only three hundred and ninety one thou
sand horses and mules Perhaps Mr.. Jefferis
forgets the statement made by the secretary Of
war concerning sizes of ammunition. The sec
rotary thought it might be an advantage to
have American guns and ammunition OF differ
ent bore from that used by the enemy 80 that it
the enemy captured our ammunition they could
not use it in their guns The thought never oc-
erred to the secretary that we might capture
some enemy ammunition and desire to use it
in our guns. He planned with view to losing
ammunition Now perhaps the war department
figured that the enemy would capture lot Of
horses and mules, strip the saddles and harness
off and shoe them back to the American lines,
in which event it would be necessary to have
ready supply.
