TAKING the coats Of this season

The points to keep in mind in order

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGE

In beginning his Inaugural Address
Governor Parkhurst said:-"Gentlemen
of the Senate and of the House of Rep
resentatives: "By solemn oath we have
accepted the responsibility of performing
the duties imposed upon us by the electo-
rate of Maine.
"This obligation is personal. Its fulfill
ment requires from each of US earnest
individual effort. Our conduct should be
actuated by the single purpose of serving
well the State of Maine" These few
lucid sentences are animate with the
desire of the Chief Executive of our
State for individual and collective econo-
my and efficiency. They constitute in
themselves one of the best inaugural adj
dresses we ever read. We hope all the
Senators and Representatives have ,e-
tentive memories. In this issue Of The
journal we publish the address in full.
Our readers will notice that throughout
the whole address Governor Parkhurst
spoke with clarity and in no paragraph
is there to be found a trace of egotism,
kaiserism or partisanship.
We will not presume to discuss the
recommendations made by the Governor.
That will doubtless be done by the Leg
stature and by the voters.

THE TREATY

England, France, Belgium and Italy
nave evidently decided that the United
States cannot be wheedIed to send
thousands of troops and spend billions of
dollars to aid them in settling and main
tanning European boundary lines and
cradle parts of Asia and of Africa.
Neither their public men nor their in
spired newspapers have now very much
TO say about the League of Nations.
They are turning their attention to the
treaty. The premiers of England, France
and Italy are to meet in Ia few days in
Paris to formulate plans End take such
action as will compel Germany to dis
arm, as she promised to do when she
subscribed to the terms the treaty.

Belgium and opened the war, Won Beth

Chancellor, said that treaty is nothing

Foreign Affairs, and DR.. Bell, Minister
of the Empire, 'acting in the name of

treaty at Paris June 20, 1919. Both
these men knew that the German people
whom they represented would not keep
faith with the Allies unless compelled to
do SO. The representatives of 81 other
countries signed that treaty and when it
was IN the making every one of them
knew that Germany would delay, bubble,
eVade and, if she dared, would repudiate
its terms, The treaty was, therefore, so
ira med that Germany could be forced to
live up to her agreements as far as it
was humanity possible to do. 1t was
clearly seen that Germany must be
stripped of her powerful navy; that her
great naval base at Kiel should be de-
stroyed; that the Notifications along the
Rhine should be dismantled that the
man ufacture of arms, munitions, planes,
sub marines and all other war material
should cease, and the army "must not

JUNGLE JOE" CANNON ON PEN
SIONS

This bill calls for appropriations
amounting to $265, 000,O00, a reduction
of S14, 000,00 from the appropriations of
the present year. The decrease is not
an item of economy for which the COM
mittee claims any credit. 1t is due to
the decrease in the number of pension
ers. Death has taken IS, 900 of the vet
Grams of the Civil War in the last year
and more than 100000 in the last five
years. The committee has no pride in
presenting this decreased appropriation
for pensions 1t is still large appro-
priation, but it represents one of the
most sacred obligations of the govern
ment-one we could not ignore if we
would and one we would not ignore if
we could.
"It represents the debt of gratitude
the people owe to their defenders, and
they will willingly pay that obligation,
now as in the past, and in the future as
in the present This bill does not repre-
sent the full extent of our obligations to
the defenders of the nation. 1t carries
the pensions for those who were in wars
prior to the World War. But small
number of men engaged in the war with
Germany are cared for in this bill. The
obligation to the millions who were en-
rolled in the army and navy in that war
will be met by other appropriation bills,
for comp -nsation, for death and disabil-
ity, for medical and hospital services,
for vocational education, for mainte
nance of soldiers homes, and for admin
istration of these agencies. These ap-
preparations will be larger than those in
this bill, and the total appropriations to
meet the obligations to the defenders of
the country will amount to S575, ABS, 400.
1t is large amount this Congress is
called upon to appropriate to care for the
men who surrendered their places and
! opportunities in civil life to sacrifice
| health and life for the common welfare,
but we cannot and dare not talk of econ
omy in meeting such an obligation"

of the British Isles is about $40, 900, OOO,-

of that sum. The national debt of France
is 70 per cent of her wealth, and Italy's
debt is 70 per cent of her wealth. The
United States is entirely free of foreign
entangements. Labor and business are,

times like these the Government must
