SUSINESS TELEPHONES oa Branch Teephane Exchange Connecting und every sentence of that treaty for a single devia-| sion from the policies that have governed the inter- national relations of this country from the beginning. | We have always been earnest advocates of arbitra- tion of international disputes, and the United States is a party to a score or more of arbitration treaties: with various nations. Article II of the treaty is nothing more or less than an agreement to confer with certain other nations if, certain circumstances should erise in the future. It binds us to no action whatever, and is far removed from the intent and purpose of Article X of the cove- nant of the league of nations, despite the readiness with which some pro-leaguers are trying to see a simi-| larity between them. On numerous occasions in the| past the United States has conferred with other na-| tions as to the best means for dealing with a menacing, foe. In the revolution, the conflict with the Barbary, pirates, the Boxer uprising, and the world war, we conferred with other nations “as to the most efficient measures to be taken to meet the exigencies of the! particular situation.” In those conferences we were| not previously obligated to follow any particular course, neither will we be obliged to take any specific action in future conference.

CONFIDENCE RESTORED. -| “The improvement in the prices of Liberty bonds,” | \ declares Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Wads-! worth, “is an extraordinary testimonial to the change f mind among our investors. It is hard to realize that he holders of these bonds have made a market profit oring this year of nearly $2,500,000,000. It is a sign nd a breeder of confidence.” One of the greatest achievements of the Republican administration has | been the change in the prices of Liberty bonds. About 16 per cent has been added to the value of every out- | standing Liberty bond. That is no matter of theory, but a cold fact. An owner of a hundred dollar bond can now get about $97 for it, whereas a year ago he could sell it for only about $82. If there are 15,000,- £90 Liberty bond owners in the country, it means that trebled when the war cut us off from that former! their average wealth has been increased $165 in the chief source cf our toy imports, Germany, and the) past 12 months. | value of the “toys and games” turned — by etal Seseawh ele Ee | st census year, is 7 tories in 1919, the late 3 THE EIGHT HOUR DAY. stated at $46,000,000 against $14,000,000 in the pre- ceding census year 1914.
