Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1920-03-19

At frequent intervals the opposing
forces in the senate have entered on
what is described by the Washington
correspondents as the decisive strug-
gle over the peace treaty of Versailles.
At this writing they are engaged in
another of those cOmbatS, and the
prospect is that this time it really will
be decisive Early in the week Presi-
dent Wilson, rather than to confer
with a representative of the compro-
misers, wrote a long letter to Senator
Hitchcock in which he reasserted his
old position regarding the treaty, con-
demned the reservations as a nullifi-
cation of the League of Nations cove
nant and pleaded for consideration of
the needs of humanity instead of 'spe-
cial national interests" He demand
ed that article 10 be accepted I'M
changed and asserted that to refuse to
accept the moral obligation required
by it would be breach of good faith.
If the United States cannot enter the
league with full responsibility, he said,
it should retire gracefully from the
great concert of powers. Article 10,
said the president, represents the re-
nunciation by the other great powers
of their old imperialistic ideas and
aims, and it's doctrine is the essence
of AmericaniSm He continued:
'Militaristic ambitions and imperial
istic policies are by no means dead,
even in the councils of the nations
whom we most trust and with whom
we most desire to be associated in the
tasks of peace" And then he added
the surprising statement that the mill
taristic party Of France which was
prevented from getting the upper hand
during the peace conference is in con-
troll there now In evident allusion to
Vincent Grey's letter, he says he is
mot willing to trust to the counsel of
diplomats the working out of any sal
vation of the world from things which
it has suffered"

If there had been any tendency
toward treating Germany with more
tenderness it probably would have
been dispelled by the many attacks
made last week by Germans on army
officers and others of the allies in the
country on official business. These
outrages took place in Berlin and sew
eral other cities and were deliberate
and seemingly planned. The Berlin
government deplores them and prom
Uses to punish the offenders, among
whom is Prince Joachim Albrecht,
cousin of the former kaiser.
Minister of Defense Noske has been
telling correspondents how scrupulous-
Iy Germany has been carrying out the
terms Of the treaty by reducing her
military and naval strength, but there
are other things the government has
not done yet. Among these is the APP
plication of the promised penalties for
the outrages suffered by officers of the
interallied commission Of the Baltic
states during the German evacuation
of that region. The conference of al
lied ambassadors has sent to Berlin
firmly worded note demanding that
this pledge be carried out at once.

The Supreme court of the United

It was under Governor Cox's administration that Ohio adopted the mothers pension system. en- abling poor widows to keep their children in their homes instead of having the little ones placed in orphan institutions. The first tax for this purpose was one-tenth of a mill; it has now been increased 10 one-fifth of a mill. Orphan asylums. however, were not neg iected.
 Governor Cox's attitude was expressed in his message as fol- lows:
 No matter how complete be the institution. no matter how humane be it's management and and no matter how efficient it's training bureau, it can never ap- never approach in benefit that which comes in the child's own home at the knee of the child's own mother.
