ROOT SPEECH PUTS
HIM ON SLATEFOR
POST IN CABINET
Lawrence Says Address Fav-
oring Modification of
League Is Big Topic at
Both Parties Headquarters
BY DAVID LAWRENCE,
"a Special Correspondent of The
News Soimitar.)

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 21.-Elihu
Roots speech in New York favoring
the modification of the present
league of nations covenant to NEE.
American objections, is now the big
topic Of discussion at political head
quarters of both parties. The i'm
portance of Mr.. Roots pronounce
ment is that everybody in Republic
can circles expects him to be secre-.
tary of state in the next administra-
ton or head of another American
peace commission, which will nego-
tate with European governments
concerning reservations or changes
in the covenant of the league.
Mr.. Roots expressed friendlfness
to the present league did rot come
as shock to the 'irTeconcilables,"
but 1t has caused them some anxiety,
for it is believed he would never
have made such a statement without
letting Senator Harding know some
thing about it in advance. Here is
the portion of Mr.. Roots speech
which is being accepted now as the
cardinal principle of the next admin
istration II Mr.. Harding should be
elected.
''The question is whether the
agreement creating the league shall
be accepted absolutely unchanged or
shall be modifieH to meet the Amer
lean objections. I would be glad to
have the provisions of the agree
ment so changed so as to obviate
these (the American) objections.
Then would follow an ordinary COM
nonsense negotiation as to the best
way to obviate the objections.
think the American objection can be
met and obviated without interfering
with the scheme of the league or i'm
pairing its usefulness" r
1t will be noted that Mr.. Root
makes no reference to the Wilson
league" as the Republican campaign
orators have been uniformly calling
|. the present league. Moreoverp Mr..
Root clears away the notion that
Senator Harding would attempt to
establish new. league. He inter-
prets Senator Harding's promise Of
"a new relationship" with Europe to
mean revision Of the existing league
and use of the present machinery.
To the irreconcilables this means a
departure from their suppositions
about Mr.. Harding's having SCRAP
ped" the league.

TELLS Of HOG CHOLERA
OUTBREAK IN STATE;
HOW It ORIGINATED

The outbreak of hog cholera in Ari-
IONA dates from November, 1919, ac-
cording to a review of the situation by
DIR. J. Pc Jacks of the bureau of ami
NAL industry in this city. This out
break states DIR. Jacks in the weekly
press letter of the University of Ari-
IONA. college of agriculture, occurred
in a shipment of hogs originating
from Colorado and which was sent to
a certain point in Arizona.
Due to either lax inspection or i'm
proper disinfection of cars. this ship
ment of hogs became infected with
hog cholera en- route. Immedia tely
upon arriving at their destination
they We're not isolated nor were any
precautions taken to quarantine them
from other animals. Consequently.
prior to expiration of 81 days, they
showed symptoms of acute hog chol-
era and infected a large proportion of
215 head of susceptible animals. caus
ing the loss &f 75 head or a financial
loss of approximately $500.
Immediately upon investigation and
post norton examination of those dy-
ing. the others were subjected to Sc
rum-v virus treatment. At this time
the number of animals dead and sick
numbered 80. Forty of this number
died prior to treatment. OF the sick
ones treated a majority made an UNI
eventful recovery. Due to the fact
that this disease was recognized as
soon as an investigation was made the
owner was saved at least $4,000 Neigh
bors were warned as TO the danger OF
the infection spreading to their prem
ises and We're advised as to the con-
troll of the disease.
Hog cholera in Arizona seemed to
have been stamped out without much
further trouble until the arrival of
second shipment originating from the
same state. This second shipment
consisted of 265 head of feeder hogs,
which upon arrival at ,neir destina-
ton were Immediately taken to the
owners farm and turned in with 200
head of fat hogs, which could have
been marketed within week Accord
ing to the owners statement, these
hogs were infected at the time of ar
rival in the car and also few dead
