TO DILAT0RY
Red Cross Requests Un-
enrolled to Mail in
Memberships.

An urgent appeal to all those
who have not yet either renewed
their membership or Joined the
American Red Cross was made yes
terday by the management Of the
Fourth Red Cross Roll Call.
g The committee in charge of the
enrolment service states that all
those who desire to join or renew
their allegiance this year may do
so by visiting the chapter house
at 16 Jackson place, or by sending
their dollar by mail.
o. A house-to-house canvass was
purposely avoided, the committee
states, In order to obviate annoy
ance to the public, but 1t Is felt that
as a result the roll call has Jagged
and thousands OF men and women
are still-to be enrolled who un-
doubtedly would have contributed
had they. been personally invited.
Encouraging reports have been
received. from the Navy Yard, the
Rotary Club and Mrs. Elizab beth
Gray Woodward, who had charge of
the volunteers at, the Palace thea
ter. Among those who enrolled 100
per cent were the students at the

in such cases of economic action by
the league the council should have
the option of modifying the obliga-

to take part in the blockade. The
assembly's rejection of this amend

throughout Scandinavia, it is sug-
gested.
The sentiment of the assembly as
regards the amendments, however,
is hardly represented in the Scan
dinavian reflections. Most of the
jurists and diplomats present are
opposed to the modification of the
pact until there has been some op-
portunity of profiting from the ex-
perfence gained in the execution
of existing clauses. Yet among the
representatives of IL nations there
are some very marked tendencies
toward revision and modification or
the Paris instruments. Partisans
are developing on all benches for
beneficial changes.

Penrose Too III to Attend
Congress Dec. 6, Report

Reports from reliable quarters
reached Washington yesterday to
the effect that Senator Boles Penrose
of Pennsylvania, who has been i'll
for nearly a year, does not expect
to attend the sessions of the in
coming Congress which convenes on
December 6.
In his absence, Senator Porter J.
ranking Republican
member of the Senate Finance Com
mittee, will act as chairman. PEN
rose will also have as his personal
representative on the committee
Senator James E. Watson of Indi-
ana. While it is not expected that
the Finance Committee will be ex-
active during the short
session, 1t is understood that the
mind of Senator McCumber, so far
as revenue legislation is concerned,
runs along the same line as that
of Penrose, and that the policies of
the Pennsylvania Senator will be
observed in whatever business
comes before the committee.

SENATOR NEW SEES
NO HOPE FOR TREATY

Senator Harry S. New. Of Indiana,
who made heroic efforts to bring
about compromise ratification of
the Treaty of Versailles, embody-
ing the covenant of the league. of
nations. declared yesterday upon
his. return to Washington that he
does not believe the United States
ever will become a party to the
treaty and that he would not cast
his vote for ratification on any basis
whatever. Thst-statement by Sena-
tor New following a similar one
by Senator Wesley L. Jones, of
Washington, who was relatively
mild in his opposition to the league
covenant, places every Republican
senator now in Washington squarely
on record in favor of IAN absolute
ly' new deal" by the Harding ad-
ministration. -" 80, ..- ---
Although he was a member of the
bipartisan conference committee
of the Senate and worked hard to
reconcile the differences between
Republicans and Democrats over
Article X, Senator New says he re-
CARDS the outcome of the Presi-
Dental election as a specific man
date from the American people to
scrap the Versailles covenant. He
will be the dinner guest of the
President-elect soon after Mr.. Hard
ing returns from Panama. He de-
clines to discuss the possibility Of
his entering the Cabinet either as
Secretary of War or Postmaster
General. He is seeking no special
favors for himself in the matter of
appointment.

II do not think that Washington
should vote for Representatives In

vote for the President and Vice

tional Capital must not be involved
in petty politics" declared Miss Ma

have the power to vote for money
to be expended on Washington
streets. parks, Fairgrounds or any
improvements and at the same time
have Commissioners who are to be
appointed Many serious complica-
tions would arise and 1t would not
be at all satisfactory.
Il do believe the Commissioners
should be allowed on the floor dur
ing the discussion in Congress of
measures relating to the District Of
Columbia These Commissioners
could act as informants in matters
which some Representatives who
have never lived here, would not
know enough about to pass jurisdic-

and others, plaintiffs, VS.. the county
Of Mile Laos and others, defendants
in regard to the bid submitted by the

ing was dismissed in the district court
owing to the non:ppearance of the

If it were true that large sums of

1t seems strange that when the op-
portunlty came to expose the so-called
fraud Of the county officials and the
Princeton Union and to show the tax
payers and public in general where
large sums Of county money has been
Incorporated, that this case was
dismissed by the nonappearance of the
plaintiffs.

success in every way.
The Civic Betterment club has
signed for another lyceum course to
be put on next fall and winter. This
will be better course than the one
just ended. The numbers have been
carefully chosen with due regard to
the varied tastes and likes of our
community. There will be six num-
bers-the same as on the course Just
completed. The university assures
the club that the dramatic company
will be of excellent quality. The
dramatic company was the weak link
in this seasons course. The university
withdrew the company from the cir

Following are the numbers for next
seasons course: The LaSalle Male

the Ongawas, Japanese couple; Jes-

Season tickets will be sold which
will enable everyone to enjoy the whole
course for 4 very small sum.

The BABCOCK PLAN
A Few Points in the Law Elucidated
for Benefit of Those Not Fa-
4 miliar With Them.
Read Them and You Will Decide to
Vote for the Babc0ck Amend
ment at Next Election,

A wrong impression apparently ex-
| lists in the minds of some persons as
to the method of raising the money to
construct the Babcock highway sys-
tenn. For those who do not understand
the method we print the following in
formation:
The state of Minnesota, proposes to
issue a. hundred million dollars of
special road bonds.
The bonds will be paid by a direct
tax on. automobiles
No moneys from any, other taxable
sourcezcan be put into this fund under
the proposed law or amendment.
This means that the burden of the
tax will fall on the auto owners in the
cities and heavily settled districts.
It is> estimated that auto owners in
the twin cities and Duluth will pay
forty per cent of the tax, because
! forty per cent of the automobiles and
trucks*of the state are owned in these
centers. ...
AS d matter Of fact the people who
pay the tax will get the least benefit
out OF The expenditure except in a
general way.
The several thousand miles of paved
highway that will be built will be in
the rural communities and of direct
benefit to these communities.
It will release just that much road
mileage that the counties now have to
build and keep up. y
There is nothing mysterious about
the law. It is absolutely plain on this
point.
Disregarding the enhanced value of
the land through which a paved road
passes the proposition is economically
sound. \
It places the burden of the tax, not
on the farmer, not on the laborer, but
right on the people who can afford it
and who should pay it.
The argument for paved road is
well known. 1t need not be dwelt up
on here. Suffice to say that every
person in the state of Minnesota and
the county Of Mile Laos will directly
benefit through better means of trans
portation.
And sufficient all the year round
transportation means more prosperity.
Railroad transportation built up the
great northwest. Paved road trans
portation will develop It.
After due consideration of the above
facts you can scarcely do other than
vote for, amendment No. |.
