LEAGUETREATY PAGE EIGHT t 'UESDAY, MAY 18, 1920 MAY WRECK SAN FRANCISCO MEET President Wilson’s Announce- ment That He Will Inject Covenant Causes Alarm ——- { LEADERS ARE NERVOUS! If Democratic Convention Takes » Up Versailles Pact Trou- ble Sure to Follow BY H.\N. RICKEY, N. E. A. Staff Correspondent Washington, May 18.--Those remo- cratic leaders who hoped to avoid a finish fight over the treaty and league of nations at the San Fran- cisco convention have been disap- pointed. President Wilson’s message to the democrats of Oregon in which he de- clared that the honor of the nation required that the party give unquali- fied support to his treaty position— ratification without reservations— makes the issue perfectly clear. The convention either must follow his lead and do his bid- ding in respect of the treaty or repudiate his leadership. There can be no compromise. The situation wiaich the president’s unyielding attitude has created is most embarrassing to those who will be charged with the responsibility of BANDS LEAD. REBEL TROOPS INTO JUAREZ Juarez — Drum and bands led the troops into the city of Juarez when it was taken recently in General Obregon’s © revolt against Carranza. The soldiers were formerly Carranza troops. corps Alau continued, “according to present standards of musie, no such thing existed two generations ago, The only Hawaiian music in the early 60's and prior to that was the guttural revolutionary | writing the platform and nominating the candidates at San Francisco. What Wilson Asks Twenty-three democratic senators voted with the majority republican senators to attach the Lodge reserva- tions to the treaty. The 23 included every northern democratic senator but two. The president now insists that the national convention brand these sena- tors as disloyal to the party. When it is considered that with few exceptions these senators are the leaders in the respective states and -will have their great influence in the convention, it is difficult to overes- timate the bitter character of the struggle which the president has pre- cipitated. Bryan, who will control at least a strong minority in the convention, opposes the president’s position. He lost no time accepting the presi- dent’s challenge in a statement in which he characterized it as evidence of unsound judgment, due to Mr. ‘Wil- son’s lack of information. There is no doubt that Bryan's posi- tion fs more nearly in harmony with the majority of the democratic leader- ship in and out of congress than is the Wilson position. A _No-Hope Platform The plain truth is that there are not a dozen democrats of leadership class in the country who believe that the party has the ghost of a chance to win in ‘November on the issue of ratifying the treaty and league of na- tions without reservations. In private conversation, almost every democrat in Washington, even those holding office under the presi- dent, admit this. \ One of those leading democratic senators from a northern state ex- pressed the situation today like this.

This lot parallels the alley, and is 25 ft. wide and 150 ft. deep, and is very desirable for the wholesale or retail business. I sold a lot within a stone’s throw of this very desirable location last year for $10,000.00 spot cash. This lot is almost across the street from the home of the new Ford. and it will only be a short time suntil this will be the Automo- bile mart of Bismarck. This lot is reasonably worth $5,000.00 but as I am hard up and need the cash, I will sell for less than $4,000. If interested, please write. telephone, tele- graph, or send messenger. J. H.

Our only pos- sociatiof: To devote to the task of sible chance of electing our ticket making public library service a vital this year is to emphasize domestic’ influence in every American c' issues. Yet to repudiate the presi- dent’s leadership with the alternative of accepting the leadership of Bryan is like jumping from the frying pan! into the fire. “We democrats have been having a lot of fun at the expense of the republicans because of the muddle into which they have dragged them- selves in the primary fights, But the} republican -situation is a happy one compared with: ours.” “Friendly Call” Proposed The suggestion has been made that a committee of party leaders, made up of such men as Pomerene, Phelan, Pittman, Henderson, Walsh of Montana, and others, call upon the; president and attempt to convince, him that to persist in the course he| has taken wi!l wreck the party with- out forwarding the imterests of the treaty. It is doubtful whether this will be | done, however, as no one seriously be- lieves that the president Could be; swerved from his course even if he would receive such a committee. This: may be'said with certainty; The situation among the northern democratic leaders is pregnant with greater possibil- ities of rebellion against the president’s leadership than at any time during the eight years that he /has ruled. If the president follows up_ his treaty demand by trying to force the nomination of a man of his own choice, such a man, for example, as Secretary of ‘State Colby, the possibil- ity of rebellion would become a prob- ability. ORGANIZING BAND TO FIGHT OUTLAW UNION MOVEMENT of \ New York State Chamber | Commerce Forming Organ- ization to Combat Strikes | New York, May 18.—An investiga- tion of the “one big union of citizens” idea and its feasibility in protecting ‘American communities from possible fuel or coal famines during strikes is now underway by 10 members of the New York State Chamber of Com- merce recently appointed by the presi dent of the organization as a “commit. tee on public welfare.” Revolutionary labor upheavals and strikes designated us “outlaw” walk- outs by union officials and the em- ployment of volunteer Americans in keeping the channels of communica- tion and transportation open, are the} objects, it is said, of the chamber’s | present inquiry. The chamber for sev eral weeks has been listing and classi-) fying volunteers who, with no antagon- ism toward unions or partisan interest in labor quarrels, obligate themselves to operate motor trucks or do any other work necessary to keep the na- | patch fiddle, which was brought here! nmun- ity, the A. L. A. is gathering a “books tor everybody” fund of $2,000,000. Miss Winnie Bucklin, librarian of the Fargo public library, is state director of the “books for everybody” fund in North Dakota. 5 The report for North Dakota shows 44 libraries that are classed as free public libraries, containing 89,713 vol- umes and serving a population of 95.- 131 persons, leaving 481,925. persons without access to libraries, In the judgment of the bureau of education, the smallest library that can usually be depended on to render an adequate service is one of 5,000 volumes. Only four libraries in the state, measured by this standard, can be termed “uni versities of the people.” They serve 37, persons, ‘with 539,701 persons practically deprived of the help of an institution which, more than any oth- er, permotes, adult self-education. In 45 counties there is no library. with as many as 5,00 volumes, Four coun- ties each have'a library of this size, which might serve as a nucleus’ for a county library. UKULELE MYSTERY SOLVED AT LAST; FROM PORTUGAL Hawaiian Music Orly of Recent Origin Declares Woman Who Investigated Honolulu, T. H., May 18.—The uke- lele, known as the Hawaiian national instrument is not Hawaiian at all, but Portuguese, says Mrs. Rose Alau, writing in the Hawaiian Educational Review, an official publication of the territorial department of public in- struction. “The ukulele,” said Mrs. Alau in an article on musical development in! Hawaii, ‘was evolved. by @ Portu- guese from the five stringed taro- | by Portuguese immigrants. The guitar o-ila, also called a meie or chant, with a limited scale of four notes The only other singing was at religi- ous or educational exerctses and then the sound was an ear-jarring jar- gon, worse than the musical efforts of a Chinese congregation.” From this foundation -Mrs, Alau traced the musical development of the islands which she characterized as “little less than marvelous.” . ” PEOPLE'S TORU THE AUTOMOBILE FOOL Editor of The Tribune: As the writer, who uses an auto- mobile considerable on the streets of Bismarck, he rises up to ask that “Isn't ‘it about time that we com- mence to enforce ‘the traffic regula- tions in regard to running auto- mobiles?” It is supposed that nearly everyone* understands that a car go- ing east and west,/'has the right of way of cars going north and south. but only in a very few cases are these regulations adhered to, and the care- ful diver going east and west, thinks he has the right of way, is in danger of being run into by some automobile driver, who is ignovant of the trailic ‘regulations, or absolutely disregards them. The speed. fool is the most danger- ous of all fools. If the city council of Bismarck does not sce fit to give the ‘traffic regulations ‘wide publicity, in other words use some printer's ink, then let the automobile club, or the, Commercial club take the matter up, as the writer has found a great many well meaning people driving automobiles who are ignorant of the traffic regulations.

Rio de Janeiro.—The foreign trade of Brazil during the first half of 1919 is regarded as very encouraging. In- creased exportation of some of Bra- fee, rubber, cacao, chilled beef, hides, oil bearing fruits, etc., as well as the | high prices which these articles have commanded, leaves a very respectable trade balance. That Brazil has rar idly forged ahead commercially during the years of the war is generally con- ceded:: The country’s agricultural pos- sibilities are as-yet practically unex- ploited, and. the war, acted as.a stimu- lus toward’ -ascertaining the wide range of hér productivity. Brazil has been able to export to Europe foodstuffs which a few years ago she was not able to supply to herself, In the same way animal hus bandry is. making strides which’ point to making meat products one of. the country’s. chief exports.- While Bra- zil has always been a cattle produc- ing country, it ts only during the last three or four years that she has been looked upon as a world supplier. More recently several large medern pack- ing houses have been constructed or projected. These are financed princl- pally by American packing interests. In the last year the federal govern- ment, through the agricultural depart- ment, has devoted considerable atten- tien to the importation and purchase of animals of pure blood. It is pro- posed to carry on an extensive educa- tional campaign among the live stock breeders of Brazil to improve the standard. of cattle. For this purpose the government intends to make lb- eral money appropriations. In India if a man, is not married at the latest by his twentyfifth year his reputation suffers.
