wilson S Denial Absurd,
Declares Senator Reed
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 11.-President
Wilson has confessed that he did
promise to send the American army
and navy across the ocean to protect
the boundaries of Rumania and Serbia,
according to Senator James A. Reed,
irreconcilab(e Democratic fee of the
League OF Nations.
In a statement issued here to-day
Senator Reed attacked the White
House version of the speech President
Wilson made to the Rumanian and
Serbian delegates to the peace confer
ence, and characterized as "absurd"
the Pres ident's attempt to deny that
the League of Nations does not pledge
America to protect the boundaries Of
foreign nations, and presented a mass
of evidence to prove that the President
himself has admitted again and again
what he now seeks to deny.
Senator Reed quoted from the Presi~
dents speeches and his interview with
the Foreign Relations Committee of
the Senate, former President Taft,
Premier Lloyd George Of Great Britain,
Sir Eric Geddes and Winston Churchill
to bear him out in his contention that
President Wilson had made it plain
an international military force to pro-
tect the boundaries Of all members ,cf
the League of Nations.
Referring to the controversy which
arose q week ago between Senator 81 en-
Ger and President Wilson over speech
Senator Spencer had delivered in his
campaign in Missouri, in which the
Junior Senator charged the President
had made the pledge, Senator Reed
said:
II have no interest in the political
fortunes of Senator Spencer The only
reason | have said anything in the
controversy is that Senator Spencer in
his speeches quoted one Of my speeches
as authority for his statement that the
President had made certain declara-
tions to the Rumanian and Serbian
delegations
"A direct denial of tlfe truth Of Sem
ator Spencer's statement was, there
fore, an Impeachment Of my veracity.
Under the circumstances | could not
remain silent. | will no more permit
the President Of the United States to
accuse me of falsfcation without re-
ply than | would in the case OF any
other man
Not single denial was ever made y
| the statement continues "The public
is entitled to see the official report as
II was transcribed to be filed with the
peace conference, and | shall await its
production with interest.
But, for the life of me, cannot see
how the stenographic report helps the
Presidents case. 1t is, in fact, a com
plete veriication of the body of the
charge heretofore made. 1t is true the
language Is very different from that
quoted by Frank H.) Simonds. and vet
II contains exactly the same idea.
WAS the President standing and
looking into the eyes of the Serbian
and Rumanian delegates and telling
them they expected US to send oul
armies and navies if any covenant OF
the settlement was not observed, and
at the same time not meaning to imply
tnat the United States was not assum-
ing that obligation?
How absurd it is to protest that
we have not promised to send our
armies and navies across the ocean"

Clothing Makers Demands

Disagreement Between EN-
ployers and Employees

representatives of the Amalgamated d
Clothing Workers Association. the
Clothing Manufacturers Association
of New York and the Clothing Trade
Association Of New York held their
first conference at the Office of the
Amalgamated, 81 Union Square, yes
terday in the negotiations over the de-
mands presented to the union by the
employers. Failure to reach an agree
ment in the negotiations, it is lx-
heved, may result in the tie-up of the
clothing industry, involving 100 600
men. The spokesmen for the Amalga-
mated were headed by President Sid
ney Hillman and Secretary Joseph
Schlossberg. Major B. H. Gitchell head

facturers' Association. Professor Will

Trade Association. Among the de-
mands made on the union are the right
OF the manufacturers to install piece
work, to change contractors and to en-
force discipline
While no statement was issued hv
either side after yesterdays confer
encc, it is believed that the union will
ultimately agree to COMPROMISE

yention of the Amalgamated in Boston

again, if the conditions we nil REGARD
as fundamental are challenged, the
guarantees which viii be given to YOU
will pledge that the United States will
send its army and feet across the
ocean,
There is no substantial difference
between any of these It is mere ouib-
bling to attempt to pick OUT slight
verbal differences. The great out
standing fact is that the President led
the Rumanians and Serbs to believe IS
clearly as language can DO it that an
American army and navy was available
to them in case there was any fresh
trouble.
"For it will be noticed that in the
last statement which the President
now produces he is distinctly addressing
the Rumnnians and Serbs, for in his
statement he says: 4 Deg our friends
from Rumania and Serbia to remem-
ber.'
Asks Why Record Is Withheld
"Why will not the President produce
the official record? If it is true that
neither the President, nor the State
Department. nor any one in authority
has an exact copy of the official stem
ographic reports of the day, why not
cable to Paris and secure the copy,
which certainly the United States is
entitled to have?
"Mr. Gibbons in his article in the
May, 1920, number of The Century
Magazine. says:
According to the stenographic
notes Of the eighth plenary session Of
the peace conference, which | have in
my possession, President Wilson said
to Premier BIatiano,' and thea gives
his quotation.
"Thc statement of the President to
the Serbs and Rumanians, which now
seems to be unanswerably establihed IS,
as Senator Reed clearly points out, quite
immaterial as compared with the def
mite obligation to the same effect which
is in express language set out in Arti-
Gle OF the treaty and which makes
the obligation sought to be imposed
upon the United States so unfair and
obnoxious to the people of this coun-

"If the world should be trou-

found in the case of Sir Auckland Geddes, lately
appointed to the Washington post, by reducing
the salary to s2,50O and giving him an allowance
of s17,500 for other expenses, only the salary be-

should serve the purpose, especially as the
British embassy at Washington has its own resi-
dence and official quarters. Our own diplomats
are not so fortunately situated. In the past,
$4,000 has been the limit of their salaries and
out of that sum they were obliged to pay house
rent and expenses Of entertaining. In the best
of times this not enough, with the result that
only men of wealth, not by any means always the
ablest most desirable men for the places, could
afford to accept the appointments.
Our representatives must now also pay in
come tax, which will still further limit them. Al
most of necessity congress will have to increase
that income, even if economy of expenditures is
to be the watchword. At this time of all others
we need able sagacious, tactful men in our for
eign service and it should be made possible that
the best men could be chosen without regard to
their private incomes. Whether the provision
made for them be moderate salary and large

enough to enable the representative to be free

TO RELIEVE CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard of
| nearing and have head noises, will be
glad to know that this distressing af-
Fiction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medi-
cine that in many instances has eff
fected complete relief after other
treatments have failed Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of a watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore, if you
know of someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness, cut
out this formula and hand it to them
and you may have been the means
OF saving some poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. The prescription
can be prepared at home and is made
as follows:
Secure from your druggist 1 ounce
Parmint Double Strength Take this
home and add to it u pint of hot
water and a little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved Take one table
spoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not only
to reduce by tonic action the inflam-
nation and swelling in the Eustachian
Tubes, and thus to equalize the
air pressure on the drum but to COR
rect any excess of secretions in the
middle ear, and the results it gives
are nearly always quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in
any form, or distressing rumbling,
kissing sounds in their ears, should
give this recipe a trial.

Today's Talk
AFTER YOUR ARE
FORTY
BY George Matthew Adams

A mans greatest creative work
should be done after he is forty. Be-
Tort that time he is but laying the
Foundation for the structure which
Shall be indicative of all that he is
liable to be.
1t is significant that the majority
who have not built strong founda-
ttton by the time they are forty are the
ones to whom failure and disappoint-
tment come.
Z Some Of the most successful men
indeed probably majority-do not
attain great renown until after that
.age. But they are at school and at
work before that.
:, There Is a feeling among large ma
IJorlty that If they are earning we'll
. iand having a good time in their thir-
] tiles, they have little to worry about.
sfBut statistics show that these same
linen ten years later are the ones who
I are regretting and complaining of
their lot and ten years later still be-
come largely dependent upon others.
The time to build and to save is
before you are forty!
Then with your ripened knowledge
and experience you may expand, grow
. and enjoy as we'll. The time for rest
is when your work is finished-speak-
ing in the larger sense. Though to
the real producer, his work is nevc>'
: finished. But ease and pleasure lod.n
great as a man builds well.
!. Save as you go. both in money and
. strength. You will need them both
after you have passed your forty mark
Have an account at some bank to
which you keep adding something reg

Of sleep-and go to 1t unworried. Car

Then from forty on. you will be
worth while in the world and to your
self.

Salaries in Foreign Service

The Indianapolis Star says editorialy:
Great Britain's foreign representatives as
well as our own have had their troubles, it seems,
over the matter of remuneration, though the diff
ficulties are not quite of the same character.
Heretofore, for example, it has been the custom
to pay the ambassador to this country salary of
$4,000, this amount to cover expenses of enter
tainment, which usually mean good deal in Dip
lomatic life This was liberal enough sum in
the days of lower cost of living and when in

are now high and the complaint is that they eat
