ALDERMEN, STOP THIS.
Help Your Constituents BY Abat-
ing a Nuisance.

The Chicago City Council owes It
to the million Of people who attend
moving picture theaters in Chicago to
put a curb on the people who disturb
others in the audience by carrying on
conversations while the play is on
the screen.
These know.it.alls and leather.
lunged idiots are to be found in every
theater in Chicago, to the annoyance
of everybody else.
The Chicago City Council 20 years
ago, on the initiative Of Alderman N.
M. Plotke, passed an ordinance pro.
hibiting women from wearing hats in
theaters and thus obstructing the
view of other people.
The smart Alexis laughed at this
ordinance at flrst--especially the
smart Aleck daily press-but the city
enforced It and today It is the rule in
every theater in America.
A good healthy fine for takers dur.
ing acts in Movie theaters would
conserve much wind that Is used now
to annoy respectable theater patrons.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS
DEBATE AT BOSTON
Continued from Previous Issue)

Paris it may be we'll to consider
tive League of Nations to prevent
war. Everyone will agree that such
a league must forbid resort to arms
before submitting the question in dis
pute to public trial, arbitration or
inquiry Of some kind; and probably it
ought also to forbid a resort TO arms
after an award which is universally
believed to be right and just. Such
delay before hostilities will net
prevent all wars, but it will make
them much less common. and it will
wholly prevent a nation from delibe2'-
ately planning a war, as Germany
did, and seeking the advantage of
surprise when it's victime are unpre-
pared. 1t is generally assumed, if
Germany had not possessed that ad-
vantage, she would not have gone
to war. Obviously, the submission to
arbitration must be compulsory, for
if not, the condition is nowise diff
ferent from what it has been hither-
to and the compulsion-the sanction,
as the lawyers say-the punishment
for the offender, must be such that
no nation would venture to incur it;

the maintenance Of order For this
has always insisted thata the penalty
should not be decreed by council
of the League, which would involve
delay, possibly disagreement and in
@cticn; but automatically, that i,
tie members of the League should
themselves jointly and severally to
resist the aggressor at once. In this
way the members would stand to-
gether, and an attack on one would
be "ipso facto' an attack On all; and
# the League contained, as We ey-
pect. by far the greather part of the
world, no nation would, for a mo-
ment. contemplate war with such a
coalition, and therefore wars would
not occur before arbitration.
Inc prlnclple should apply not only
to disputes among the members Of
the League, but also to dissensions
between other nations not belonging

has tendency to spread, and no
cne in a community has a right to
start confIagration which his neigh
hors have not a right TO nUt out.

Although the penalty against the

that it Gooes not depent upon the ac-
tion Of an international council. new
ertheless such a council for purposes,
not of command. but Of consultation,
is highly beneficial. 1t tends to re-
move friction by enabling nations to

Perhaps the time has come to do
it. | only wish tonight to call your
attention to the gravity of that prom

morally binding, that there is no es-
cape when a guaranty Ui that sort

member that we must make no pro-
Use, enter into no agreement, which
we are not going to carry out in
letter and in spirit without restric-
tion and without deduction.
THE PRESIDING OFFICER.
The next to address you is the
president Of Harvard University-an
educator renowned throughout the
world, learned student of states
manship, endowed with wisdom
which has made him leader of men,
truly a master of arts, emlnently a
doctor Of laws, a fitting representa-
tive of the Massachusetts domain:
A. LAWRENCE LOWELL.
Senator Lodge has been so long IN
public life and has rendered such
eminent services, that l regard him
not only as a statesman, but almost
as an institution. For his ability and
courage ! have the highest respect,
and | have usually been in accord
with his opinions Moreover | have
always been inconsistently Republi-
can. But, although | suspect that
we differ much less about League
of Nations than might appear on the
surface, | cannot agree with his ut
terances, and still less with those of
some of his senatorial colleagues, on
the draft of a Covenant reported to
the Conference at Paris. We both
feel that this Covenant, as it stands,
defective, but the difference is that
moved, the Covenant ought to be rat
ified-and he does not tell us wheth-
er he thinks so or not.
Few, Of any, Americans hold the
doctrine, propounded by certain Ger
man writer's, that is in itself good.
Few do not desire peace among men;
and it would probably be safe to go
farther and say that the vast ma
iority of our people welcome the idea
of a League of Nations to prevent
war, even if it involves some incCn-
venience for us. There is naturally
however, much difference of opinion
about the form such a league should
take; and any concrete plan that
could be presented would not accord
entirely with most mems precon-
ceived ideas, if they have any; or. if
they have not, would involve diff
cuties that they had not foreseen
as inevitable; with the result that
criticism breaks forth in abundance.
This has been, and must always be,
true of every step in human progress.
Every advance goes through the
stages of general aspiration, of con-
crete plan and cf sharp criticism,
healthy and instructive.

Obligation to Go to War?

This is an agreement for an inn
mediate and automatic boycott, or
outlawry, of the offending state by
the members Of the League-certain
ly a vigorous form of sanction, high
ly unlikely to be defied, the more so,
as it would almost inevitably involve
war with alN the nations in the
League. Whether it was intended
that the state which, in violation of
the Covenant, levied war on one
member of the League should be
ipso facto at war with all the rest
does not seem to me clear. The
Covenant does not say so, for an act
of war is not necessarily state of
war; and yet the provisions about
mutually supporting one another

troops, and clause in the same ar
ticle that the Executive Council shall

A Short Story of a Trip From
Wildwood to a New England
Farm House

Mrs. Jed Dubois and little daughter
Emily sailed on the steamer Grecian,
Merchants and Miners line, Philadel-
phia to Boston, last Saturday night,
July 18th. The vessel was an hour
and a half late in leaving, sailing at
$50 O'Clock in a downpour of rain.
Writing Of her trip Mrs. Dubois says:
awe were sick most all the way, yet
the sea was calm. We didn't really
enjoy it any until Sunday evening, as
we felt bad all day, ate almost no
breakfast and did moi go to the dining
room for dinner, had soup and crackers
In the stateroom and lay down all af-
ternoon. Sunday evening vas beau
tiful and we could see the shores of
Long Island, Block Island, Martha's
Vineyard, and saw the evening star
rice directly over the light at Montauk
Point. Not being able to sleep the
first night 1 got up and saw Cape May
light, which we passed l think about
one a. M, and later | saw other lights
which l took for Anglesea. The boat
lay at anchor four or five hours Sun
nay night or early Monday morning,
the fog being so dense. l was up early
Monday morning and saw the sun rise,
but it soon disappeared and we had
nothing but clouds, fog and showers
until we neared Boston hsrbor. 1t
takes a long time to get through the
harbor and a long time to dock. We
walked to the elevated and it was fur
Their than l supposed. Was certainly
tired and hot when we got to North
Station. 1t was very hot in Boston
and l thought best to go on to Port
land, Maine, to spend the night. We
got there about S.45 Monday evening
and went to a hotel opposite the sta
ton. Got a fine front room with a
view of Casco Bay. Took a short troll
ley ride before going to bed, seeing
most OF the shopping and business dis
trict. Portland is a fine modern city
and does quite a tourist business. The
