HOOVER WOULD RAT1FY TREATY
Thinks Question Should Not BE Made
Political Issue

Herbert Hoover declared in an ad-
dress at John Hopkins university his
opposition to making the ratification
of the treaty with Germany an issue
in the presidential campaign. He in
sisted the injection of the arguments
for and against reservations would
obscure our pressing domestic issues
by conflict over a question on which
the country has already made up its
mind and added that, in his opinion
there is no party credit in this posi-
tion. Hope for immediate ratification
of the treaty rested, he said, in the
acceptance by the lesser reservation
lists of the proposals Of the mild res
ervationists. The two combined, he
said, could secure ratification and it
appears that even from the point Of
view Of the lesser reservationists they
will have secured all Of the major
functions and values Of the league. II
it be put into being and If it prove its
living value in the world no one can
doubt that any necessary changes will
be granted to it by common consent
40 the years 60 on. For my part, il
the league cannot prove its value un-
der the latest proposals Of the mild
reservationists it will never prove
them under the proposals Of the lesser
reservationists.

SLIP ONE OVER ON GERMANS
Important Papers Secured by Clever
Patriotic Burglars"

When diplomatic relations are once
more resumed with Germany, one Of
the first acts Of German officials in the
United States will be to go to the
Swiss consulate, on the ninth floor Of
the building at II Broadway, New
York, for the purpose Of regaining
possession of a ton Of highly import
ant secret German papers. These pa
pers were placed in the Swiss consul
late by Germany for safe-keeping at
the time the United States entered the
war. To the astonishment and dis
may Of the German officials, the pa
pers will be missing. When the Ger
mans open the doors of the safes and
slide back the drawers in various FL
ing cases, the documents and records
they seek will be 20 conspicuously not
there that it will be startling. From
a non-G German point Of view, the sit
uation will be amusing. At the. time
the documents were deposited in the
safes by the Germans, every precau-
.tion was taken not only to safeguard
the papers themselves, but to make IL
impossible to molest them without
leaving evidence that would be imme-
diately noticeable. Each drawer and
door was locked and wrapped with
ropes and voluminoua tape of ): red,
whits and black vllaene IL the Gesusas.s
return, the locks and ropes and tape
will still be intact and will show no
evidence Of having been touched, but

High School Entertainment

High School Entertainment
The last number Of the High School
Extension lectures will be given at the
Grand Theatre on Tuesday night,
March 2, 1920. This last entertain
ment is to be given by the Little
Playhouse company Of Cincinnati.
There is no doubt that it will main
tain the high standard Of community
lectures and entertainments that the
people Of Oakes have been enjoying
the past winter. We have been very
fortunate during this season in not
having single program that has
been dull or disappointing.
The Little Playhouse company
stands highest, according to our fig
ures, Of all the companies on our list
and for that reason will furnish the
best Of the years numbers. This en-
tertainment bids fair to surpass the
quality Of previous programs. f26-1
