The arguments against ratification Oresented by Senator Borah, Republi- can, and Senator Reed, Democratic, were the old ones. They declared, ac- cording to reports, that the German treaty in an instrument framed in such & way that it may bring the United States into the League of Nations at some ture time. Senator Borah as- * serted that he had noted for some time the direction in which the Ad- ministration was going. Humbly be it said: “So have we.” The only trouble is that we are not sorry for that direction, in this regard, as Senator Borah has been. He has been heard here; the words that came from his lips fl}en were brilliant and entertaining and—as we thought then and as we have grown more convinced since—were founded on eérronous as- sumptions and wrong conclusions. Senator Réed, who has always op- pose the League of Nations wanted to gut out all of the freaty of Versailles in the treaty, his animosity against the league being shown even new. The blame, if harm results from these treaties will and should fall upon the Republicans, of course, but the Democrats came so generously to their air that, should the treaties ever be used as campaign material, they will not be in a position to say much about it. During the time of the campaign this paper favored for the League of Nationr. The interpretation was given that the economic boycott would be its most powerful weapon while Sena- tor Borah was talking about “sending our boys across the water again” should the League be entered, we were feeling that no such event would ever occur. \ The interpretation which has been given to the covenant has proved that we saw pretty distinctly. Members of the League do not consider themselves bound to fight in the manner siggested by Senator Borah. We would be com- pelled to ‘Gght only as we would be compelled to fight, league or no league. Take from Borah’s arguments Article Ten of the covenant and he would have had little with which to make the impression that he did make. That was his star act, and he hates to abandon it. The trend the Administration has been taking, as Senator Rorah says he has noted, means, of course, the trend toward a more thorough understand- ing of and relationship with other na- tion~ We have always advocated such a policy, and we, also, note this “‘trend’” with gratification. It is expressed in the Conference on Limitation of Arma- ments, on increasing the number of nations to e invited, on our evident willingnéss to sit with representatives ot other nations in solemn conclave. ‘Who shall say that this “trend” so feared by the Senator from Idaho will not be for the betterment of the world and for our own part of it? % The ratificatior means the doing of the things desired by our people. good. RATLROAD STRIKE. Among the good and bad things said of President Harding is that, however It would however weak he may be, strong, he is a great pacifier. be good, were this true, if he would be present at the approaching con- ference between the Labor Board and the Union’s chiefs. To solve first exactly what is de- sired by the Labor Board and the a great different unions will be achievement. To the layman it seems to be sum- med up in the answer to the question as to whether the railroads shall make reductions in freight rates first, and make the freight rates lower. to have—the railroads, continue at least temporarily. It is reported that fleight rate re- ductions to absorb the bulk of the railway wage cuts of July 1 would be probably the basic suggestion of the Raflway Labor Board in its efforts to avert a strike.

The logs blaze up, then sim- mers down, then flickers in between— An’' while they flicker, dies, all sorts o seen. To some there come the dreams , o’ gold an’ power limitless; To others come the hope that they may aid those in dis- tress. An’ then again a tiny flame, but burning sturdy, strong, 3 Jest sort 0’ givés you confidence as you fair plugs along, That you are doin’ right an’ followin' the path that pays, 2 That you ain’t wastin’ o’ your i’ time; an’ through the smoke’s dim haze, - You see that former sturdy blaze grown strong Wwith courage true— You see a man. successful an’ respected an’ he's you. You cannot dream your way to what most men would call success; TBut it is good to watch flames those sturdy, caress. o blazes, dreams are the logs Try This On Your Wise Friend \( What is the number which is just as much short of 72 as its triple is above 72? AnsWer to yesterday’s: 4, 36. 9, 15, o~ group of the Railway Labor Board outlined the plan set forth by the pub- lic group at the Whité House and there are signs that this will be the basis for”the program to be set be- fore the conference on Thursday. The features of this plan are: 1. The employes to call off the strike action, temporarily at least. 2. The carriers to withdraw their statements that they would seek an- other 10 per cent. wage cut. 3. The carriers to cut freight rates under direction of the Interstate com- merce commission to absorb most of the $400,000,000 annual savings ef- fected by the July 1 wage reduction. ® 4. .The theory that this would stim- ulate business and reduce the cost of living, the roads at their discretion might ask for further wage reductions as living costs fell. THE TWO-PLATOON. | It is possible that the two-platoon system will be brought before the Common Council again this evening by resolution. - - It has been said that the vote in favor of adjournmbnt at the last meeting of the Council two weeks ago, shows how the Council stands upon the matter. It is doubtful if this be true. Coun- cilman Gill, who made the motion to adjourn and those who voted for the adjournment, may not have had the merits of the question in mind at all; nor may all of them be set down as against the plan. Most of the members of the Council were anxious to adjourn and put an end to the giscussion—to call it by no worse a name—that was taking place. Give those all credit. Give every member who was disgusted with the proceedings that were taking place the credit of being ashamed of them. Much that was out of order gent on. Always, after such a meeting, the same hope is expressed, that another of the same character may never be witnessed. But the same thing comes up several times each year. It might be unwise to bring the resolution at this time. It is now a question whetler or not it would be passed owing to the financial position members of the Council find the peo- ple to be in, and owing to the fact that the Council members might not properly represent the sentiments of the people should they pass it. But it is submitted that the teeling of the Common Council may not be inferred from the carrying of the motion made at the last meeting to adjourn, without a vote on the mayor’s veto. curselves or dissolve the government.” Probably the speaker meant more than the protecting railroad workers whno stayed on the job. This will be granted unhesitatingly by the gov- ernment, there is little doubt. It is believed that the soldiers themselves will operate trains if nec- ¢, and those who ride on the trains, or those who transport freight thereon, when they are run by appar- ent novices, may have little fear for their safety or little fear of ‘unysual delay. Our army is composed of men from all walks of life. When a mechanic is needed heis forthcoming—a cook,an entertainer, a fireman, brakeman, en- gineer as well as one learned in other matters. Its men are proud of the army; its skill. The United States has the power to care for and regulate all the af- fairs having to do with its people. It is time different groups of peo- pie realized that fact. It is time that a group of men un- derstand that they do not hold a far greater number of men in slavery. - Tt is time that those men realize they are free agents outside of break- ing the laws which they themselves, or their representatives have made. It is time that the United States makes use of, the power it holds, and whicl: loyal Americans want it to hold. “Alcohol a3 Future Fuel,” headline.
