The death of Cecil Adrian Arthur

GRANDFATHER BEES

Aged Man Takes Life TO Avoid
Rebuke He Expected in

Frederick Reuhle, seventy-four
years old, lived with his daughter
Mrs. Annie Johnston. at No. 2OS starr

declining years was his two grandchil-
dren. Rose, ten years old, ana Mar

lily misunderstanding separated the
parents OF the two children and the
mother secured n position to support
them and herself and her father.
While Mrs. Johnston was away in
the daytime Grandfather Reuhle
looked after the little girls. taking
them for walks and playing with them
in the parks. The old man, to provide
them with delicac cies which he thought
the mother couldn't afford, went
abroad while they were home with the
mother and begged cake and fruit and
bread for them.
David Johnston, his Son-in-law,
learned Of his actions. He knew it
wasn't necessary for the old man to do
this and perhaps he had in mind that
it would be best to have him warned
against the practice by a court of
law. At any rate. he caused him to
be summoned before Magistrate

When the case was called this
morning Grandfather Reuhle was

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 Copy
right, 192D.-Manv who have closely
studied the text of the Hughes Knox
treaty with Germany have discovered
tina. the United States has not closed
t. to nossib.e membership in
thc League Of Nations after all. and
t my moment the executive
branch of our Government can con-
sent to pc bound by the covenant
without the consent of the Senate or
Congress.
4 Joker is contained in article two
of the new treaty, permissive clauses
so broadly phrased as to permit a
President or Secretary Of State TO
bring the United States into the
League without even referring the
matter to Congress. The Senate once
before foresaw such a possibility and
in the original Lodge reservations to
the Versailles pact the Senate 'ir-
Teconcilables" used language that
would have prohibited the Executive
from assuming any obligations under
the League covenant without the
"eXpress consent of Congress" The
Lodge reservations also prohibited
any American citizen from ever serv-
Ing the League and forbade American n
participation in any commission OF
the League without the consent OF
Congress.
The opponents of the Lodge reser-
Sations insisted that such a viewpoint
was inconsistent with the Constitu-
lion, which gives the Executive broad
pewers to deal with foreign Govern
ments, but in the heat of the contro-
very the objections went unheeded.
Now, however, when the final word
s. being said about our treaty rela-
tons with Germany. no prohibition
against future membership in the
League or any Of it's commissions is
made. The two important para
graphs of the new treaty bearing on
this point read as follows:
That the United States shall
not be bound by the provisions
of Part l. of that treaty (cove-
nant OF the League of Nations
in Versailles treaty. nor by any
provisions of that treaty which
relate to the covenant of the
League of Nations, nor shall the
United States be bound by any
action taken by the League of
Nations or by the council or by
