SPEAKS AT SPOKANE NEXT
BY LAWRENCE MARTIN

United Press Staff Correspondent
WITH PRESIDENT HARDING IN
YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK,
June 30.-President Harding and his
Alaska bound caravan today entered
one of Americas Fairgrounds.
Turning aside from the beaten path
Of cheering crowds, speeches and hot
Pullman cars, the President came to
Yellowstone Park for a rest.
Even here, far from ordinary sur
roundings or life,> the impossibility
Of having a real vacation while he is
President, was. borne in on Mr.~Hard
ing. The retinue that attended him
into the park this morning was as
numerous as the encourage of many
an ancient king, and there will be
many witnesses at all times-even
when he goes fishing.
Has Two-Day Vacation
The President, however, will make
the best Of his two-day vacation in
the park Practically every minute of
his time has been divided up by
schedule long in advance.
Instead Of just taking his rod and
fishing a stream in solitude and con
tentment, he will be allowed to fish
just so long. and then he must ride in
an automobile just so long, and see
this and that natural wonder at a
certain hour.
The Presidents next speaking date
is Spokane, where he will arrive July
2. Last night.s he delivered an ad-
dress on social justice, women, and
labor in Helena.
He called on the Nation to protect
and preserve home and family life,
and to strengthen the religious side
Of national life
Both Prof1teered
He said both capital and labor lad
profiteered during the war, and de-
clared that would be prevented should
war ever come again, by Ihe drafting
into national service Of all resources
Of the Nation.
Recognizing the new industrial po-
sition Of women, the President said
the country must re-adapt itself, SC
women who must work, If they are
to have the privilege of home and
motherhood, will not be compelled tC
leave to teachers the rearing of their
children.

GAS STATION NOT
WORRYING MAYOR
He Even Sells Part of Front
Yard to Oil Company.

While many residents of the north
s''A get out an injunction when they
learn that a filing station is to be
located on their street, Mayor Shank
has again demonstrated his democracy
by showing that he doesn't give a
whoop where they are located.
In fact, the mayor has sold part of
the front yard of his home on East
Washington ST. to an oil company
where, neighbors say, nice, new oil
station is in, the process of con.
struction.
Say, these oil companies wanted
that piece of ground worse than /
did, from the price they paid" the
mayor said. People have to buy
Gil and gas some place. and it might
as well be in my front yard as any
other place"

Nevertheless, there few men who
can tell you what is in the Treaty
OF Versailles. Every endeavor was
made to give full publicity to- its
= draft when it was first presented to
the Germans, and to the final docu-
ment when signed Even before the
form of the draft was ever settled
actual decisions were reported from
day to day
In spite of that. no two men who
happen to profess diverse opinions
as to it's justice or injustice can agree
as to what is contained in it.
The treaty has become one Of these
fercely debated subjects as to which
the contestants firmly refuse to re-
gard any testimony or recognize the
existence of any fact which Is in the
least inconsistent with their particu-
lar point of view Thus it has come
to pass that the real treaty of Yer
eaillss has already disappeared, and
several imaginary versions have
emerged, and conflict RACES around
these.
Many Schools of Thought.
In France there are at least two or
/ three schools of thought concernine
fhe Versailles Treaty There is one
powerful section which has always
egarded 1t as a reasonable pact in
Fhfch NJ Cemenceau gave away solid
french rights and interests in a mo-
nent OF weakness under pressure from
president Wilson and myself. That
-
school. That is why they are now,
whilst in form. engaged in ENFORCING
the treaty; in fact, carrying out a gi-
gantic operation for amending il with.
out consulting the other signatories
This has come ont very clearly in the
remarkable report from the High
commissioner Of the Rhineland. whicl
was recently disclosed. 1t is obvious
from this official paper that whilst
the French Government have worked
the public into a state of Indignation
over the failure of Germany to carry
out the Treaty of Versailles, they
were the whole time deliberately or.
gan.zing a plot 70 overthrow that
treaty themselves Their representa-.
tive on the Rhine. was spending
French money with the consent of the
french Government in promoting a
conspiracy to set up an independent
republic on the Rhine under the pro.
lection of France.
1t was a deliberate attempt by those
who disapproved of the moderation of
the Treaty Of Versailles to rewrite its
clause in terms Of the militarist de-
mands put forward by Marshal Foch
at the peace conference. Marshal
Foch, being the soul of honor
wanted to See this done openly
and stra1ghtfordwardly. What he
would have done like the gentle
