LODGES BRAND OF CON-
 SISTENCY.

In speech in the senate Tuesday Senator Lodge turned from discus sion of article 10 to make a sighting reference to the letter of President Wilson to Senator Hitchcock, says the CommercialAppeal. In th.s missive the president stated only Il well recognized and self evident tru n when he said that militaristic forces were still at work even in somc of the countries with which we were allied during the war. He cited the fact that the militarists of France were controlled at the peace confer ence, but that they were still active. Every country has them to a greater or less degree, and it is no surprise that they should be in France. The president drew the moral that it would be necessary for the peace lov- ing and non-C -Chauvinistic clements to hold grip on those suffering from exaggerated nationalism, and in this control there could be no more effective aid than league of the great nations to preserve peace. As for Italy, can anyone deny that her aggressions in Dalmatia and her ambitions to make the Adriatic a purely Italian sea are the clearcst examples of militarism?
 Yet Senator Lodge in his speech took occasion to offer these re- marks:
 l regret extremely such re-
 flection on one of our associates
 in the war. 1 do not rh.Ek
 France is in the least militaris-
 tic. l regret that the president
 also should have taken occasion
 to say something about Italy.
 Now, keep in mind the fact tha5 the Lodge who uses the above words is the same Lodge who ly his Shantung reservation cold:y ana openly refuses to accept the solemn word of Japan and thereby delibcr- ately flouts the honor of nation that also was our ally in the war. ri e peace treaty gave to Japan trustee ship over Shantung on Japan's sol semn promise that she would turn the province over to China as soon as possible. Therefore, according to the Lodge code of international courtesy it is perfectly horrid to state that there are those of militaristc lear sings in some allied countrie, wiale it is perfectly proper to refuse to accept the solemn promise of aE other ally and automatically to spit into the face of this ally.
 Then, too, the whole attack upon the league of nations is direct as sault upon the honor, honesty and integrity of all the member nations. We question not only their sincerity but their motives when We refuse to join hands with them as partners in sthe work of preserving world peace Senator Lodge in trying to discredi. everything that President Wilson says or does often involves himself lin hopeless and childish contradic- tions. He may be deceiving himself, but the American people ale not fools.

The Changing Order

(Fro,n The Philadcfphia Pubic Ledger)
ANY one who reads the newspapers Is
aware that strikes are not so fash
ionable as they were year ago, either
IN the United States or in Europe Tho
British coal miners have in few
months abandoned one strike plan after
another. They are eager for arbtra
tration.
Threats Of an anthracite strike have
been made in this state, but the min
ers' leaders are now seeking to have
wage disputes settled without the in
terruption of production"
The fact is that labor and the ON
pioyers alike have been learning soms
bitter lessons. Everybody loses in a
strike After idleness and hard $ ip
and loss on both sides, every great
labor question is settled on a basis
that would have been easily attaiaable

Savings and Loan Associations

Savings and Loan Associations
To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Savings and loan associations are
unique in many directions and have
been recognized by state banking su-
perntendcnts for many years as
great factor in this state for the promo
ton of home ownership among men and
women of moderate means. All the
money received from savers is invested
IN homecoming mortgages, nothing else,
except that many associations bought
Liberty bonds as patriotic service
There are no other banking institutions
in this state that have the double pur-
pose OF being opt$ated exclusively for
the benefit of the self respecting men
and women who long for their own
homes and also desire to save sys-
tematically.
There are thousands of persons in this
state and New Jersey who now live in
their own homes through the medium
Of savings and loan associations. At
least Is per cent of those persons would
still be rentpayers were it not for these
organizations They can lend, under the
law of this state, so per cent Of an
appraised valuation on first mortgage,
and the monthly payment on each 1000
borrowed is sos interest and S. to
cut down the mortgage. This $5 paid
On the mortgage earns dividends of Y
to per cent, and the mortgage is paid
off in twelve years. There are no
"strings' to the mortgage. The owner
can sell at any time; never has renewal
fees to pay The average mortgage up
state is less than $4,000, in the metro
politan district less than $4,000
Is it too much to ask that officials and
housing committees call attention at this
time to these bcncfcent institutions,
which have only the promotion of good
citizenship in view and are operated
solely for the benefit of the common
people? The precedent has been estab-
lishcd by superintendents OF banks in
official reports.
