What Is Territorial Integrity ?

Article X of the Peace Treaty says:
"The members of the League under
take to respect and preserve as against
political independence of all members
of the League. In ease of any such
aggression or in case of any threat or
danger of such aggression, the Council
shall advise upon the a by which
this obligation shall be fulfilled"
Please notice the words undertake
and advise. There is no compulsion
there but a moral force for admins
tration of each government to accept
and act on advise.
The territory of each Nation is the
land under it's government. Integrity
means the whole, not a part; hence up

American Sim Feinners

The League of Nations iasco is a
warning of what may happen to Meth
odist Unification in the coming General
Conference if the essential point is
lost sight of thru the concentration of
attention and discussion upon some
matter of detail. Herbert Hoover well
said in his published appeal for prompt
ratification of the Treaty of Versailles,
''The League is not a document: it is
an organization Of the moral sense of
the civilized States Yet by a shade
lighter, the whole document has been
annulled, and not only has the treaty
been defeated, but-What is infinitely
worse as expressed in the erection Of
this barrier against another world
war, has been defeated. For the first
time in history a great idealistic move
ment, affecting the whole world, has
been planned and America has refused
to be a part of it. "Sinn Fein"-"Our-
selves alone"-would be a more APP
propriate motto for such a nation than
StIn God we trust"
The simple question before the Sen
ate was whether it would approve a
plan which embodied the highest striv-
ings of the nations for world peace
To adopt it, imperfect as it doubtless
is, was obviously the first step toward
a neutrality-suspicious. against war. The
Senate's duty, as we see it, was to rati.
fly and "get the League going" to use
one of Mr.. Hoover's pat phrases. Fol
one reason-we will not try to fix The

Advise Is Not Dictation Nor

Advise presumes conclusions reached
after presentation of facts according to
the rules of reason. The representa-
tives Of the 81 Allied nations consulted
IN war and took action on the battle
fields to win the World War. To say
that representatives of the same ma
ton cannot do the same in the time of
peace to preserve peace is an insult to
Democracy and a travesty on Justice.
Only childish minds who are scared bv

III and the antichrist would conclude

Chicago, Dec . (By the Associated

According to figures obtained from
one OF the big Five" virtually all
products, at wholesale, are on their
way toward the bottom and the
monthly statement of the Institute of

the packing houses said
There are two features of the
comparative price situation that
should be borne In mind One Is
the price OF by-products and the
other. the cost Of labor. The aver.
age consumer naturally thinks OF
meat animals only as they affect
his table. He sees that the price
OF hogs has dropped and he
thinks, Of course, that meat
should follow at one.
Only about IS per cent Of the
live hog is meat. The ether 25
per cent consists OF waste and
by-products. which Just now have
little value Also in the carcass
there are parts that must be sold
