The fundamental wroug In the plan lor a league ol nations now pro- nosed is that It estaDUanes, not world court but a world government. it establishes, not the away ot Justice, but the reign of foici. it creates, not a body of interna tional law, to govern the relations of nations, and a court to construe that law In each Instance ol dispute, but a world legislature, or executive world autocracy, Bays the national Republican. The people of the world want dls armament as the only certain guaran tee of world peace; mutual disarma ment; this proposed constitution ol a league of natlonB does not provide it; It merely binds the American people to the acceptance of whatever Klecislona may be made upon this matter by a world legislature, no matter what that decision may be, The people of the world want wars to end: but this constitution of a league of nations settles none ot the many problems which now menace the world's peace. On the contrary. it leaves them all unsettled, but binds the American people to the accept ance of any settlement that may be made. In a world legislature domin ated by alien Interests, regardless ol whether or not American Interests and Ideals, or the welfare of Ameri cans In general, are sacrificed In that settlement. i The American people are willing to dip their flag to justice. But not to force, regardless of whether that force Is behind a righteous or an un righteous cause. I The Paris peace conference should settle the terms of peace with the central powers, should settle the questions growing immediately out of the present war, should propose a code of International law and a world court, composed of men of such legal ability and standing that, nominated by each of the nations, Blgners ot the compact, they would be ratified by all the rest, to interpret that code of general principles in Its application to every international dispute. To the enforcement of the decrees of such a court every nation Bhould pledge Itself. The supernatlonal government, as proposed in the league of nations, represents only the sway of numbers, not the rolgn of wisdom or of right. The court of nations would represont the rule of Justice. The proposed league of nations Is founded upon the socialistic idea of the Bway of the brute force, regardless of equity. It would, if adopted, mark, not the end ing, but the beginning of perpetual warfare with the people of this coun try obligated to participate in every war as well as to surrendor the na tional Independence achieved by Washington and presorved by Lin coln. ' I BEATING PRICES DOWN. A speaker from Seattle, Washing ton, suggested at a recent conference of governors and majora at Wash ington, D. C that the mayors of cltlos make an offort to reduce the prices of necessaries ot llfo. He sug gested that they call In their home merchants and ask them to take steps to get prices reduced all around. This is something along the lino of a movement started recently by the Flint, Mich., Board of Com cerce. They called together 660 re tailers ot that city, and got them to aereo to reduce prices. As a re sult Borne of them must have done business at a loss. But thoy report an Increased trade, which they fool will holp develop a broader business for the future It Is a question whe ther retail emrchuiits should be asked to take such a stop before producers and wholesalers reduce prices. Re tail trade Is boing conducted on nnrrow margin of profit, closer than over before. Dut at least the retail trade should stand togothor In a do tormlned offort to purBUade prodti cors and jobbors to come off their high porch. Morclu.nta may well give salesmen to understand thnt the pres ent high prtcos produce suffering and tend to upset buslnoss. Producers and wholesalers would much better be content with small profits, rather than bring on a business depression. The wholesale trado froquoutly gets the Idea thnt it practically owns certain set of retail dealers, and that these men will buy certain lines ro- gardloss whether prices asked aro right or not. It would pay the re- tall trado to show tndopondence, and Inform the travelling salesman that thoir people nuiBt make every effort to bring prices down if thoy wish to keep trade. A determined show of resistance by the rotall merchants to the present level of prices, ought to liavo some effoct toward breaking It DIVORCE SUIT 1IKAKD FRIIAY Tho divorce suit of Esther Welch- loin vs. H.
