LEAGUE HAS FORTY-THREE MEMBERS

NIX. would not play in Mr.. Wilson's
play house and he is attempting 10 build HIM 4
play house all his own.
Mr.. Wilson stands for the Association OF Nations.
The League now has - member nations.
1t has already done a vast amount OF good work.
The covenant under which the League was or
gained is a written instrument. Ii defines the
duties and the rights oil nations.
The Association OF Nations SO far has no; a
member. it has no written constitution and there
are advocates OF the plan who assert that they do
not want any written constitution.
VIII the 43 nations already in the League leave
it to Join the Association of Nations Just to please
Mr.. Harding
Does it not hint at rebellion for Mr.. Harding to
attempt to set up an association OF his own against a
league that is already in operations
The simple truth about the matter. the plain
truth that all men can understand, is that the
Republicans had to declare for something in the
last campaign, they chose to declare against the
league, they won the election on the tax question
and on business questions and thought they won
it on the anti-Ieague sentiment.
This country cannot any longer stay out OF Eu-
ropean politics. We are part OF the world. We
are not isolated. We must recognize world citi-
zenship.
The Disarmament Conference has already eff
fected much good and it is capable OF doing more
good but wars are not going to be Tough: with
battle but they will be fought with chemi-
Gals and from the air and every country will have
It's chemical plants and every country will be filled
with a~irplanes because both are used Tor CONNER
cial purposes and then both can be made into de
,truCtiye forces within a very brief period OF time.
The world needs a constitution limiting the rights
and prescribing the duties OF nations and it needs an
International court to enforce the terms OF such a
constitution and the league already has machinery
that ran he deyeloDed into inst What the world
needs along this line.
European people are afraid OF one another. There
is hatred in those countries and they have 4 lear
lso Tor their national safety that we do no. feel and
they are not going to disarm until they know they
have protection.

THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO BE OUTCOME

PEOPLE who are installing distillerieS and who
are placing on the market white corn whlskey
ought to know that their operations will come to
grief. National prohibition has been placed in the
constitution. it is reinforced by congressional en-
actments and the federal government is not going
to enact such laws and then allow them TO trail
in the mud. Ii the government must add 4 million
men TO its enforcement squad i. will do so. Stills
viii be raided. Men on whose plantations these
stills are located will have to face the courts. 1t is
the mcrest rot to think that the governments: will
nc. enforce this law and the people who are
spending their money and energies in the direction
OF whiskey violations are only building for them
selves a berth in a federal penitentiary. The gov
eminent has started off by inflicting mild sentences
but that policy will not last long. Courts will wake
up to the fact that they must make the people fear
the law and when that is done there will be fewer
violations. The government has too much power
behind it to be outdone.
