administration building at Lyndon in
stitute, destroying it's entire contents.
Nothing was saved and all that re-
mains of the historic structure is
smoking brick wall, chimneys and a
portion of the bell tower. With the
thermometer registering 25 or more
degrees below zero the water froze
as it ran down over the outer walls
in spite of the inferno within. AL
though the fire apparently originted
in the upper part of the building far
removed from any heating apparatus,
the real cause of the confagration
will probably never be known, al
though short circuit in the wiring
of the structure may have set it 60

ed at the institute and the majority
presented themselves Tuesday morn
ing only to find their school home

The building and its contents were in

half cover the loss. This school was

Der of the American delegation, is
made the butt of attack by Senate
irreconcilables, who seek to interpret
the pact's provisions as dangerous to
the United States. That their inter
pretations fail to agree does not APP
pear to disconcert any of them, the
fact that they are together opposed
to the treaty seems to be sufficient.
This treaty has been agreed upon
at the arms conference as a substi-
tute for the Anglo-Japanese alliance,
an offensive arrangement between
Great Britain and Japan, renewal
of which would be particularly OBJ
jectionable to the United States. The
Journal is unable to agree with
Senators Borah, Reed, johnson, Stan
ley and King that the proposed treaty
is an alliance that entangles the
United States. 1t is pact design
ed to prevent the Pacific problems
from becoming causes of war. 1t is
an agreement to respect one an
others rights and to extend the
powers of diplomacy in settling
points in disagreement. The English
language ought to plain enough to
Americans who are members of the
United States Senate. The Journal
does not understand that, translated
info French or TananeSe the treaty
would have any other meaning save
that which is conveyed in English.
The simplest statement, however, can
be variously construed and mincon-
strued by a Senate irreconcilable to
fit his peculiar disposition or mood

one thing, is made to appear am
