League Covenant Has Teeth.

In copyrighted editorial in the Philadelphia Public Ledger, former President Taft shows that the covenant of the league ofsnations is strong and enforce able, and in nowise contravenes the policies or interests of the United States.
 Regarding the misconception to which critics of the covenant have given currency, MT. Taft said:
 "The attitude of those who favor the covenant has been mis- construed, increasing the con- fusion in the mind of the public in respect to the inestimable value of the covenant as it is. Were the alternatives presented exactly as it is, or of postpon- ing the coming of peace and con tinuing the state of war until the conference could reconvene and make other provisions for peace, I should without the slightest fear as to the complete safety of my country under it's provisions vote for it as the greatest step in the betterment of international relations for the benefit of the people of the world and for the benefit of my country in recorded history"
 Answering the contention that the covenant is without provi- sion for enforcement, MT. Taft continued:
 "The proposed league has real teeth and a bite to it. It fur nishes real machinery to organ ize the power of the peaceful nations of the world into econo- mic and military action, which by it's very existence and cer- tainty will keep nations from war and will force them to the acceptance of a peaceable settle ment. This will dispense with the necessity for the exercise of economic pressure or fol ce."

SHARP PRACTICE

The suit led in the United States District Court carries with it the assurance that the consti- tuition of the Prohibition clause of the Agricultural Appropria- tion Act of November 21, 1918, will be thoroughly tested. It is time that the people of this country find out where they stand in the matter. Among millions of law abiding persons the strong conviction prevails that only by sharp practice and dopble'dealing was the present situation created. If they have any rights left, it is fact worth knowing. If they have a just grievance, it should be promptly redreSSed.
 The Prohibition provision was put through Congress under false pretenses as a war. emer- gency measure. At the time the war was literally over and the armistice signed. The American people had never taken Prohibi- tion seriously. They had never looked on it as possible, for their wishes had never been COIL suited. It was put through on the sly, by the trick of lacking a rider on an appropria tion bill.
 There never was any doubt of the readiness of the people to assent to any sacrifices required of them in order to win the war. They were prepared to deny themselves food or drink or any necessaries when the occasion demanded. The ProhibitionistS reasoned that they could take advantage of this spirit to carry their scheme, and even after the armiStice was signed and the emergency was over beyond all chance of returning, they per sisted in their game of deception. The war Prohibition clause was conceived in bad faith and the statutes through kind of fraud not to be forgiven; it was foisted upon the country through plain hypocrisy masking as loy- atty in time of war. When ex- posed, the authors of the scheme boasted of their cunning in over reaching the public. Whether or not the courts hold the Pro hibition provision to be valid, it will remain one of the most dis creditable chapters in tue his tory of American legislation Yuma Sun.

ALLIES TO PUT
WEAPONS AWAY

STOCKHOLM, Sept. 20.-Accord-
ing to information received in this
city from Petrograd today, it is the
desire of the Bolsheviki leaders OF
Russia to make peace with the Al
lies. With this object in view, the
soviet is said to have delegated
representatives Of the Bolshevik
movement to begin negotiations at
once.
The reports indicate that the Bol-
sheviki are very DESTROYS of arrang-
ing a suspension of hostilities on the
various fronts. and are willing 20
accept any conditions the Allies
choose to impose. The peace COM
missioners, it is understood, have
been instructed to make peace at
any price.
The reason for this attitude on
the part Of the soviet is said 10 be
a shortage of food and war sup
plies in all parts of the country,Sand
a growing unrest among the Red
Guards.
