attached to tho resolution passed to-
day by the Second Chamber Of tho
Dutch Parliament approving HOLLANDS
entrance into the league Of nations.
During the debate 1t was explained
that these demands did not constitute
reservations, as reservations were not
permitted, but were suggestions that
the Dutch government would enter
with the idea Of having these princi-
pies adopted.
while the league without America
will be different from what was ex-
pected," said Foreign Minister Karne-
beck, "still the difference is not SO
great as to authorize Holland to stay
out"
In connection with the delay of
America to enter the league, it is
learned that several European neutral
states which up to some few weeks ago
we're inclined to wait for the "final de-
cision of America since have decided
it was desirable to hasten their en-
trance regardless of any action by the
United States.
BERNE. Feb. 2o--Adherence py
Switzerland to the league of nations
was recommended by the Swiss gov
ernment IN message to Parliament
to-day What has been known as the
american clause" by which Switzer-
lands entry to the league would de-
pend upon similar action by the United
states, has been abandoned, and. if
Parliament approves the recommenda-
tion, Switzerland will become mem
ber at once.

Dock Workers. Efficiency
Not Aided by Prohibition
Men Believe Little Liquor Would
Have Minimized Recent Flu
Epidemic. ReDOrt Saws

Prohibition has not resulted in
higher efficiency, fewer accidents or
fewer employees being absent from
work in the Dock Department, accord
ing to statement sent yesterday to a
Boston newspaper by Murray Hubert,
Dock Commissioner. The Commissioner
had been asked to investigate the re-
suits Of prohibition among dock work
ers and longshoremen in this city.
"Our dock builders must stand on
partly submerged RATS to carry on
their work, and in the winter often
times in the face of high winds and
freezing weather." says Hulberts state

whisky has been deemed essential to

sickness which prevailed among them
during the recent influenza epidemic
could have been minimized were they

at is impossible to assert that in the
Dock Department prohibition has re-
sulted in fewer men absent, fewer ac-
oidents or higher efficiency"

American President "doesn't abolish
secret diplomacy"
German, Press Discusses
ssRevolt against Wils0n''

BERLIN, Feb. 2O.-Newspapers here
are giving unusual prominence to dis
patches from the United States bearing
ON the Wilson-Lansing episode and
also the attitude of President Wilson
on the Adriatic question. What little
editorial comment there is attempts to
establish the fact that there is an "in-
surrection against Mr.. Wilson at home
and abroad" This is based wholly
upon the cabled information through
Holland and Switzerland to the effect
that American newspapers are taking
the part of Secretary Lansing.
The "Tageblatt" declares that Mr..
Lansing's case has been Converted
into Mr.. Wilson's case" and that while
it is purely internal affair of the
United States, outsiders are forced to
make the somewhat depressing obser-
vation that the anointed of one great
nation, who was hailed as the herald
Of world democracy and liberty, is
closing his career in open contradiction
to the will of his people"
Belief that Washington bulletins
permit the conclusion that the Presi-
dents immediate official environment
is emphaticallv disavowing him." is
expressed by the "Vossische Zcitung"
The National Zeitung" claims to be
informed that the Allied reversal of
policy on the extradition issue was
due primarily to pressure from the
United States. The newspaper says
America opposed arbitrary procedure
on the ground that it was calculated to
produce internal convulsions decidedly
inmical to this nations political and
economic recovery"

Test Friendship Link
By Link, Advises Davis
Ambassador Tells Britons Tie
Between Two Nations Should
Not Be Strained

OXFORD. England, Feb. 20.--John
W. Davis. the American Ambassador,
speaking tonight before the Oxford
University British American Club. gave
an exhaustive explanation of the
treaty-making powers of the United
states. He prefaced his remarks with
a*comparison of British and American
treaty methods and the characteristics
OF the two peoples
The many similarities between the
two peoples ought to make, and quite
surely do make, for their continued
friendship said Mr.. Davis eve must
be careful, however, not to put upon
these ties a strain stronger than they
will bear, and We shall know their
strength better if we test them link by
link"
In concluding the ambassador said:
The American people are likely for
many years to accomplish through this
means (the present treaty method)
their compacts with mankind. The
checks and balances by which it is sur
rounded and the free and full debate
which 1T allows are in their eyes vir-
tues rather than defects. There
is not and never can be secret treaty
binding them either in law or in
morals"

Rome Press Sees WiIson
"Swallowing His Lengue''
President asked Why He Does
Not Drop Secret Diplomacy
and Publish Correspondence

ROME, Feb 20.--Commenting on the
situation which has arisen since Presi-
dent Wilson sent his note to the Su-
preme Allied Council relative to the
Adriatic question, the "Epoca" says:
Two different conceptions Of civili-
zatlon led Europe into the war, and tn.
moment that war is over the world is
confronted with conflict between two
continents-Europe and America. Old
Europe, with all its defects, never un-
til five years ago needed American adj
vice IN the conduct of its affairs, while
now, after victory has been achieved,
every European action must be sub
mlttcd to President Wilson. Is it pos
slble that even American public opinion
can countenance such an absurdity ?"
premier Nitti, the champion Of ac
cord with America, must now become
tne supporter. of the. Anglo-Franco-
Italian accord" says the "Corriere
d'ltalia." Like Saturn, who swallows
his children. President Wilson is now
swallowing his child, the league of ma
tlons. This, perhaps, is not misfor-
,uhe' as 1t may be reconstructed on
better basis" .
'cSsasSero says: Mr.. Will
son IN reality is acting against him
self, as his desire to impose Without
discussion, through the threat of hun
ger, his obstinate will shows the i'm
possibility of d league of nations in
which the will of the majority should
have power to overcome attempts made

which she was entitled"

suit of the last four days work of the

During and Since the War

More than 1900 men and women. in.

dinner last night in honor of Senator
James w. Wadsworth jr., at the Hote
Astor Senator Wadsworth received
an ovation, and the gathering stood an
cheered when Ogden l.. Mills. who pre-.
sided, pledged their whole hearted sup.
port to him.
War Cost Thirty-six Billions
Senator Wadsworth devoted his ad-
dress principally to discussion of pro-
hibition and it's enforcement and, to the
cost of the war and taxation. He said
we shall find that the war cost the
nation at least $4,000, 600 900, and per-
haps as much as $4o,00O,000 900.
He said that in 1916 there were about
$4,000 government employees in the Dis
trict of Columbia, while now there arc
more than 100000 on the payrols. In
1916 in the District of Columbia and
elsewhere there was n total of 400, ,O0O
government employees. To-day there
approximately 650,000.

movements was the philosophy Of
force, which the nation supposed was
subordinated by the result of the
World War
"Only few of these groups" he
said, "as they exist in this country
advocate the use of physical force.
With these we know how to deal. for
the American people is devoted to law
and order. Some have been contcm-
plating and, indeed, have attempted to
attain their ends by strangling the in
dustrial activities of the nation, in the
belief that by such tactics they can
compel harried and suffering people
to accept, for example, the nationaliza.
tlon of the steel industry and the coal
mines. Another group. inten; upon
bringing about government ownership
of railways and placing themselves
in position where they will do the
operating and fix their own compensa-
ton, have, upon more than one occa-
sion, through their official spokesmen,
announced that they would not hesitate
to stop traffic upon every railroad in
the United States i'll order to gain their
ends.
Railroad Return demanded"
Legislation is now pen.ling in Wash
lngton looking to the return of the
railroads to their owners, to be opc-
rated by them under adequate govern
mental supervision and upon terms
which will afford an income and a de-
gree of credit adequate for their i'm
mediate needs and future Improvement
and expansion. The return of the
roads is demanded by the overwhelming
majority of the public.
Speaking of fair play and public
contentment, we are confronted to-da ),

Lenroot Questions Statement
Senator Lenroot declared that SEN
ator Hitchcock repeatedly refused to
discuss compromise" until after the
vote on the treaty on November 49, He
insisted that the Republicans initiated
the bipartisan conference. The Re-
. publlcans, lie said, suggested that the
Democrats ask Senator Lodge to call
the conference after many Democratic
Senators had gone to Republicans and
said that they were willing to accept
the Lodge reservations in order to
secure ratification.
"Therc are enough Democratic Sem
ators who, if they will cut loose from
the leading strings OF the President,
s,Yations to 'rstify tho treaty" asserted
Senator Lenroot "The Senator from
Nebraska, throughout this controversy
ssince he has said he was willing to
tcompromise, has never been willing to
negotiate OH any line that would secure
"a txo-thirds to ratify the treaty"
The proceedings in the bipartisan
conference, which were kept secret
aduring their progress, then came in
Gor an airing. Senator's Walsh, of
Montana, and Mcclellan, of Tennessee,

cleared the Republicans had broken up
