REPUBLICANS - ARE [ CALLED DECEITFUL Senator Harrison Charges G. 0. P. With Underhand Attack ‘Washington, July 21.—Partisanship in their opposition to the league of nations and the peace tredty was im-. puted to republican leaders in an ar- raignment in the senate today by Senator Harrison ,demdgrat, Mississip- Pi, speaking in support §f the league. Never before in the discussion of a great national question, tor Harrison, “has deception been so lavishly practiced and misrepresenta- tions so generously employed. Worse Than Bolshevi “Just criticism is accept- able. But when opposition to inter- national policies such as are contained in this treaty, is founded on rank partisanship and personal dislike of a particular individual is worse than Bolshevism gone wild.” Naming Republican Leader Lodge, Chairman Hays of the republican na- tional committee, Senator Borah of Idaho, Senator Knox of Pennsylvania, and others Senator Harrison asserted that the republican leaders had ght to embarrass President Wilson at Versailles and now were seeking to “strangle” the treaty for partisan pur- poses. Appeals For Treaty. appeal to you,” said the sena- tor, “to come out from that spell of partisanship. Help us , ratify this treaty, give to the people the peace they desire. “Do not think yourselves wiser t#an your masters; do not think that the wisdom of the republican party is lodged in your membership. The thousands of men and women throughout the country who have never voted anything but the repub- lican ticket desires this treaty should be ratified. “Sirs if you are me appeal to you to meet the issue in the open. Do not put yourselves in the attitude of voting reservations that are meaningless or ratify it with a string tied to it, such a string that will strangle it.” The reservations urged by Chair- man Rays and other republican lead- ers, Senator Harrison sald, are not only unnecessary but would require reconsideration of the treaty by all the signatories, and destroy the hope of mankind for world's peace.” G. O. P. Use Underhanded Methods. « The republican leaders he charged with having sought to arouse racial, labor, Teligious, Irish and other prej- udices in their partisan opposition. Their real opposition, however, he declared, was because President Wil- son “had a hand in making it” and because they objected to the dis- armament and commercial equality clayse. In this connection he point- ed out that munitions industries are important in the States of prominent semators attacking the treaty. “No argument has been too fal- laglous, no illustration too far- té¥ehed,” said Mr. Harrison, “for you ta seize upon in your desperate ef- . forts to becloud the issue. They be- cime jealous of the growing ascend- afiey of this man (President Wilson.) He was becoming too popular, too i influential. Your opposition arose gimply and merely because he hap- pened to be the spokesman and lead- L'er of another political party. I haa ‘never believed partisanship would bdcome so acute that jealous leade would rather see the star of the country dimmed than to witness the ascendancy of one individual simply because he was of different political faith. Wilson Wing Despite Opposition. “You tried by every possible means to embarrass him. In a foreign country, against a propaganda con- csived by men in this chamber, ade- quately financed and consistently prosecuted, that his influence might be destroyed and his plans defeated, he won. “And now vou have organized the machinery of this body that the work might be undone. The erstwhile pre- tended progressives of the republican party buried all differences and solid- ly voted for the senators from Penn- sylvania (Penrose) and Wyoming (Warren) as chairmen of the finance and appropriations committees. While it appeared an awakening at the time, subsequent events and the de- liberate stacking of the foreign -rela- tiehs committee against this treaty of peace, including the League of Nations, explains everything. Quotes Senator Lodge. Senator Harrison quoted Republi- can Leader Lodge supporting Italy's claim to Fiume and continued: “When China, stirred by expres- gions from your leaders, refused fo sign the treaty, she received the most élncere co-operation and sympathy from you. When the representatives of America were doing everything commensurate with right and justice to compromise our differences with Japan, your leaders did everything to widen the breach. You are still doing it “Before Germany signed the treaty, P ————————————————— JOHN W.

Nothing has been left undone by you to have failure written over the conference door at Ver- sailles. Your action is only compar- able to the conduct of the never- ceasing hell hounds Milton stationed at the infernal gates.” To Deccive The objections Monroe Doctrine, withdrawal from the league and racial and religious questions, Senator Harrison said, had been made “to allure and .deceive the unsuspecting public.” He denied Great Britain could dominate the league or that the Monroe Doctrine was not safeguarded. He continued: “'Opponents have appealed to thes religious prejudices of the people, saying the Papacy might control. I am a Protestant, but I denounce as infamous such arguments. Works on Irish Hopes. “You have tried to arouse the Irish of the nation into belleving that if the League of Nations is adopted Ire- land’s hope for self-determination is gone. You have tried to arouse their prejudice. There is nothing in that league (of Article X.) that could be construed to make it obligatory on the United States to interference in any way between Ireland and Eng- land. We might side with Ireland.” That the republican leaders also have sought to arraign labor against the league, was asserted by Mr. Har- rison, who said their argument was “exploded” because of the part Sam- uel Gompers had in drafting the labor sections of the treaty and also be- cause, he said, virtually every labor organization in the country has en- dorséd the league almost unani- Publ raised over the | AUVISE EVERY SICK WOMAN To Try Lydia E.

He asked whys=ir. Root fav- ored Article X. in March and raised objections to it in June. Mr. Pomerene also cited statements in recent years by Republican Leader Lodge in favor of concerted world ac- tion to maintain peace and continued: “The treaty before the scnate does not go as far as the distinguished senator from Massachusett was willing to go in 1916. “Many of those who criticize the league have no remedy to propose. Many others present suggestions which to a greater or less degree would jeopardize the chances of ratification and postpone the day for the rehabil- itation of the world.” CITY ITEMS.

Shippings, oils and steels led Atlantic-Gulf, Mexican Pe- troleum, Pan-American and Midvale steel gaining 1 to 2 1-2 points. Mo- tors also improved on the new high record of Stutz and General featured the tobaccos. Coppe several of the independent yielded fractionally with rails. Wall Street, Noon—Prices broke precipitately soon after the opening, the reaction coinciding with advices from Washington which announced President Wilson's indisposition and recurrent weakness in sterling ex- change. The reversal extended from 2 to 8 points in the motor group, ex- cepting Studebaker and Stromberg, which were strong; 1% to 4 in the various metals; 2 to 5 in oils and 1 to 3 in equipments and shippings. Later U. S. Steel and American In- ternational led irregular recoveries, ra also improving. Call money opened at 6 to 7 per cent. Wall Street, 1:30 p. m.—The second setback occurred at mid-day when representative rails began to drop, breaking 1 to 2 poin Motors and steels also proved more susceptible to pressure, Chandler, Stutz, General Motors and Crucible Steel showing e treme losses of 4 to 12 points.

Henry Clews’ Weekly Letter ———— ~— Al to the Herald) July 21.—The strikingl factor in the business outlook is the | assured prosperity of the wheat belt resulting from a bumper ¢ : | government guarantee of bushel; part of which comes out of the taxpayer's pocket and is, there- fore, a shifting rather than produc- tion of wealth. The outlook for other crops is fair as to yield, the chief dis- appointment being cotton, which will ! be much below the normal, or about | 11,000,000 bale High prices, how- | ever, will more than offset diminished | output, so the prospects of unusual agricultural prosperity are un- dimmed. The wheat crop is roughly valued at over § 00,000,000, and the entire harvest at over $20,000,000,000, which would go far toward meeting our national outlay for the war. In- terior merchants are stocking up with | more confidence, though high prices and great credit expansion occasion- ally induce a desirable mixture of | conservatism. In the industrial field steel seems to occupy leadership. En- larged demands for export, for rail- roads, for oil, shipping, building and other industries are inevitable, and a number of plants are running 70 per cent. of capacity and over, which more than at any time since the 1 of war contracts. Buildings is be coming more and more active owing to urgent demand for housing and office room; and the call for new in- dustrial plant is only less urgent than might be expected because a large part of war construction on these lines is being taken up by peace in- dustries. Conditions in railroad traf- fic are improving, the volume in the &rain districts having already visibly increased. In merchandising lines, summer quiet temporarily prevails, but preparations are in order for an active fall trade. Labor is well em- | ployed, despite the large number of | men back from the war. The unem- ployed are few, and advices from many directions report a scarcity of help which is undoubtedly true. A considerable number of alien labor ers are returning to their native lands, and more are expected to fol- low, but not so many as extreme es- timates indicate The outward move- ment movement is swollen by thos held back during the war. The cer- tainty of securing better work and | wages here than in Kurope will, | however, he a deterrent upon any | excessive efflux. The high cost of food, clothing and shelter is an im- | portant factor in the outbreaks of un- rest which appear here and there in the form of strikes Such conditions are the inevitable result of five de- structive years such as the world nev saw before or ever imagined possible The only effectual cure for such a famine is more economy and more product. Only on such lines can the world-wide vacuum he filled. Unfortunately the world is turning its back for the time being upon sane | thinking and sound action Tt is still sorely confused by the multiplicity of | half-baked ideas; is prone to extrav- | agance and unwilling to relieve the situation 'hy larger product or more work Inflation does not seem to have run ts course by any means, and high prices, coupled with imper- | ative reconstruction, insure prosper- ity for many months if not several vears ahecad As long as the move- ment is so guided as to prevent se. rious maladjustment and to preserve | a fairly normal balance in the vari- | ous divisions of industry, there little immediate danger. Conserva- tive leadership will prolong the pres- ent wave of prosperity, while reckless expansion would bring it to a quick end. (:("l’?{ill\,\ s Future. Germany imption may be a rather slow affair. In the first place German purchases from the United States will be restricted at first to sheer necessities because of inability to pay in goods or gold. | Our purchases from Germany will for | some time be small because the hos- tile. prejudic among consumers makes it hazardous and unprofitable to carry a stock of German wares. This applies to other countries even more than the United States. One of the most serious questions will be that of credit, though it is stated that a loan of 25 to 30 millions could be arranged at once. Germany however, is facing difficult times, calling for much hard work and sacrifice. There is talk already of passing the interest on her public debt which if really done would amount to repu- diation or confiscation and serious embarrassment of many leading finan- | cial institutions. There is, however one compensation, even for Germany, and | that is relief from the costly burden of militarism which finally wrecked the empire That alone will ma- terially aid the recovery of Cermany when her people are ready adapt | themselves to the new conditions and | ideals which dominate the worla. Weakness in Foreign Exchange. Foreign exchange continue settled and weak. Sterling touched the lowest record, and francs and other foreign bills did likewise; the decline, of course, being due to the abnomal condition of our | foreign trade. The lremendous pres- sure of exports and the slow increase of imports show fe symptome of abating. There is still much dis- cussion about finanging export trade during the present émergency but 1o satisfactory plan of yadjustment has yet been reached. ¥lirope must have our food products jand crude ma- terials, or reconstrudtion will stop and | disorder revive. For our own od as well as that of war-torn Iurope we will be obliged to send consider able of our surplus abyoad on credit. No attempt at &lmpfl‘fi‘hm: sterling seems to be forthcoyhing: British bankers, as is their cusfom preferring natural law to artificial regulation. | In Lond,on banking circles there is a disposition to allow sterling exchange | to fall in order to discowrage import.

To this demand must be added the requirements of the treasury, figured at about $5,000,000,- 000. Then comes the financing of an active home trade at high prices, as well as the provision of new cap- ital for home enterprises, which is sure to be very much larger than in any year of our history. Can and how will our money market meet all of these demands, which though not immediate are sure to make them- selves strongly felt in the not very distant future? The financing of our export trade has been one of the most important problems requiring: solu- tion. Signing of the peace treaty; removal of the embargo on Germany, and lowering of freights and a better supply of tonnage have also been im- in the present crises. in exchange continues it the inevitable effect of ign buying power and thus working against our export trade. Already considerable foreign orders have been held back owing to the weakness in sterling, which indirect- ly will exert a restraining effect upon commodity prices here. Stock Market Conditions. Conflicting circumstanc control the stock market and keep it in an ex- tremely active though unsettled state. The strength of the undertone seemis undiminuished, and the buying power also. Chief of stimulants are the great prosperity of the agricultural sections, and a consequent good out- look in the industrial world. Our export trade is sure to be enormous, despite the accompanying difficulty of iving Europe sufficient credit. The railroad outlook is improving owing to the better traffic prospects, to the probability that they will secure rea- sonably fair treatment from congress, that when returned to their owners some form of compensation for war losses will be permitted, and that tes may be advanced sufficiently to t least party compensate for the great increase operating costs im- and materials Public utilities also have a better outlook for similar reasons, which are better treatment by public authorities permission fairly offset in- costs by adequate rates of The discussions on the peace Washington have little Leing deemed largely political at is more to the point is that the world now on a peace bhasis, and active production has taken the place of five years of intense destruc- tion. That is the one great hopeful fact, and all other problems are chief- 1v those of adjustment These may be temporarily disquieting, but in the long run they mean better times ahead. On the unsettling side of the are the prospective strain upon the money market, the weakness of exchange and the in- creasing frequency of strikes. The high inflation of credit and commodi- ties is also a matter receiving more attention in banking circles. These | are all incidents natural to the re-| It If the fall will have in ‘service treaty fect W at is { construction era in which we are nowj running full tide. There is no reasom for loss of confidence, though thers is reason for conservatism and in- creasing discrimination in all financial transactions. Sixty leading stocks | average about (10 higher than a year ago, a very low advance com pared with the rise in commedities and wages. But in this group thirty industrials showed a gain of 50 point while twenty railroads advanced average of only 6 points. The great- est need of discrimination, however, is in some of the industrials. The chances favor a better market later on, with more or less liquidation in the interval. points HENRY CLEWS.

Since the death of her husband over a year ago she was active in the management of the Reynold’s Grain and Feed store, located on Commercial street.
