great candor and emphasis that he

Lansing. admits that practically
the only hand he had in the peace
conference came when the japanese
demands on Shantung were reached.
Here the President asked Lansing TO
confer with both the Japanese and
Chinese delegations. Commissioners
Bliss and White also participated.
They were agreed that China
should not be forced 20 give Shan
tung to the Japanese. and so report
ed to the President, who. they be-

threat would be made good. although.
at the time, Lansing insisted that
Japan woulo not withdraw; that she
could not surrender her high place

league. The day after a majority Of
the American peace commission had
reported against the japanese claims
the Council OF Four reached its final
decision, in which Mr.. Wilson ac-
quiesced China has been
abandoned TO japanese rapacity.

BOSTON, March 25.-Robert Lam
sings long-awaited book. 1.-The Peace
: Negotiations" was given TO the pub
lie today by his publishers, the
. Houghton Miffiin CO OF Boston and
New York.
Il is a startling story OF what hap
opened behind the scenes at the peace
conference, which Lansing, then sec
retary Of state attended as one OF
the FIVE American peace commits
sioners
Lansing begins by telling why the
President asked for his resignation
as secretary OF state. February IL,
1920. 1t was because Lansing did
not agree with Wilson on these
points:
= ONE-The Presidents presence
in Paris during the peace negotia-
tions"
TWO - 1.-THE fundamental princi-
pies OF the constitution and func-
tions OF the League OF Nations as
proposed and advocated by him.
THRED-The inclusion OF the
covenant "in the treaty restoring a
state OF peace"
FOUR-"rhe treaty OF defensive
alliance with France"
FIVE-"The necessity for a deh-
mite program which the American
commissioners could follow"
SIX-''The employment OF private
interviews and confidential agree
ments."
SEVEN-'Lastly the admission OF
the Japanese claims in the Province
Of Shantung"
The book shows the President and
his secretary Of state were far apart
long before the peace commissioners
went abroad. Lansing says that OF
Wilson's four peace colleagues. Col
onel House alone knew Wilson's
peace program, other than as he had
publicly announced them in his ia
miliar fourteen points and subse
quent addresses"
Lansing Cites Two Reasons.
Previous to the departure OF tho
Americancommission to Paris "
Lansing writes, the President did
not consult me as to his plan for a
League Of Nations ] think there
weer two reasons for his not doine
so. although I was the official advisor
whom he should naturally consult
on such matters" These two rea-
sons. Lansing says. were:
THAT Lansing was opposed 10 the
employment Of international force
THAT Lansing was a lawyer
Wilson, he says. has taken no trou-
ble to conceal that he does not value
the advice of lawyers except on
strictly legal questions.

DR.. BARTON'S
DAHYLETTER

There was in the olden time
lady who departed from the home
that had been hers, and moved to
Troy. Her name was Helen. We
are told about her by q gentleman
named Homer. Her husband fol-
lowed her, and there was a good deal
Of trouble about the matter. Helen
was the girl who raised the row.
Hers was
SO the face that launched
thousand ships,
And burned the topless towers of
Illium.'
There was another lady who lived
IN Troy, not quite so long ago, and
so far as | am aware, her name is
not known. She was the lady who
discovered that if a man has good
luck ne may be able to keep a shirt
clean longer than a collar.
Perhaps she also discovered that
if misfortune overtakes him, and
the shirt it not clean, he has more
opportunities of concealing the fact
than are possible in the case of the
collar
The Department Of Commerce of
the United States government has
undertaken to find out how great
industry began, and when it had
its origin. The government informs
Us that the collar business started
in 1925.
r. That may not have been the year
that the lady made the discovery, but
that was the year in which She got
men to listen to her and consent to
making the callor a separate gar
ment.
That was the way it was with
DR.. Mary Walker. But she had to
wear mans attire to find how con
venient and how stupid it was; for
men were wearing collar-buttons
that dug into the backs of their
necks, and she sewed a little flap
inside the collar button hole of the
garment she wore, and patented it.
and all of US men are grateful to her.
But this unknown woman of Troy
is not known to have worn the col
lars she invented. She bestowed
them as a great and undeserved
boon uron male humanity. We pay
nearly $20.000,000 a year in appre-
citation of her service. She may not
have been as beautiful as Helen, but
she and Helen have this in common
each of them put Troy on the map.
