President Wil- aon returned to the United States to da)-, and In his first speech delivered on American soil since the peace treaty was signed, declared the peace concluded at Paris was "a Just peace which. If it can be preserved, will safe guard the world from unnecessary bloodshed." The only reference the preslden mads to his political opponents was when in referring to the negotiations at Paris he said: "I am afraid some people, some per sons, do not understand that vision. They do not see it. They have looked too much upon the (round. They have thought too much of the interests that were near them, and they have not listened to the voices of their neigh bor. I have never had a moment's doubt as to where the heart and pur pose of this people lay." Great Welcsae Given. The president arrived at the Hoboken army pier shortly before 3 o'clock. Th army transport. George Washington, on which ha sailed from Brest, waa es coned up the bay by the battleship Pennsvlvanla and more than a score cf destroyera and small-y naval craft.

Through the lines of the children. aP dressed in white, the president passed to tha ferry which carried him to ths Manhattan side of the river. He ar rived in New Tork at 4:15 P. M.. where he was greeted by the official recep tion committee, headed by Governor Smith and Mayor Hylan. From the ferry terminal to Carnegie halt a dis tance of about three miles, the presi dential party passed through streets lined with cheering thousands of men. women and children, who thronged the TMdewalks and filled every available window and roof top. Caafrttl Showera Ckief. From the upper windows of the busi ness skyscrapers great showers of con fettl rained upon the president and Mra. Wilson, literally millions of scraps ef paper floating through the air car rying this motto: "Everybody's business to stand by cur government: to help the soldier get a job: to help crush bolshevism.' The head of the procession was formed by several companies .of sol diers and marines, followed by some hundreds of sailors. Immediately pre ceding the presidential party was an automobile filled with secret service s men and the car itself was guarded by the president's personal body guard of four picked men. In the car with President Wilson were Mrs. Wilson. Governor Smith and Mayor Hylan. The president remained standing, raising his hat almost con stantly in response to the wave of cheering which rolled along the routs of march. ;lria Cheer T.xmtlxr.

July .8. (Special.) Miss Juanita Tull, 13 years old, is local ly known as "the girl with the beauti ful hair." Her brother, 12 years old. Is known as the baby lightweight,, who can vanquish his weight in wildcats. Sunday last these two children disap peared. Their mother, Mrs. Ella Tull, wife of a local veterinarian, declares they were kidnaped by an unidentified woman, who attended the Ashland Round-up. Sheriff Terrill is of the opinion that they ran away, Juanita to the movies near Los Angeles, CaL Buster to fight with Villa In Mexico, Whichever interpretation is correct the authorities in California are on the lookout for both children and their apprehension is momentarily expected. Sheriff Terrill declares Miss Juanita has been "movie struck" . for some time and, being a young girl with a head of beautiful hair, was convinced she could achieve national fame as a screen star If given only the chance. Instead of being kidnaped the sheriff believes the girl persuaded the un identified woman at the Ashland Round-up to accompany her to Los An geles. , Before liaving Medford authorities say Juanita cashed a check for 835 which she made out in her father's name. This Is all the money the- two children posseas. Mrs. Tull, on the other hand, is con vinced her children were kidnaped. When she returned to her home 10 o'clock - Sunday night from a local hotel, where she is employed, she found house deserted and her children gone. She immediately notified .the police and, knowing her children wre at the Ashland Round-up the day before, left at once for that city. When informed that three tickets had been sold for the evening train for Venice, Cal., and informed that the party was made up of two children and a woman, she at once telegraphed the train and authori ties at Sacramento giving descr ption and asking for the apprehension of the trio.

The senate made reafly today to receive the peace treaty from President Wilson and to take up without delay and in the open the bitterly contested question of its ratification. In disregard of precedent, it was voted unanimously to open the doors to the public when the president makes his address Thursday, submitting the treaty and asking for its acceptance. To the same purpose plans were made by the leaders to rush the document to the printer and to circulate many thousands of copies for the information of the country. The decision to hear the preslden' in open session was 'reached without suggestion from him, although it was understood to square with his desires. Lodge Moves Open Houae. A senate order to provide for ths session was submitted by Chairman Lodge, of the foreign relations com mittee, after he had confirmed at he White Jlouse published reports that Mr. Wilson wished to appear Thursday. It was adopted without discussion and without a dissenting vote. The order also provided that five senators be named to receive the presi dent on bis arrival at the capitol and to conduct him to the senate chamber. The chair selected five ranking mem bers of the foreign relations commit tee Senators Lodge, Massachusetts: .Mcuumoor, worth uakota, and Borah. Idaho, republicans, and Hitchcock, Ne braska, and Williams, Mississippi, dem ocrats. Opponents In Minority. Of these Senators Lodge and Borah are bitterly opposed to the league of nations covenant, whilo the other three are supporting it. Senator Borah has repeatedly criticised President Wilson's practice of delivering his messages to congress in person, and always has - absented himself upon these occasions. He announced he would serve on the reception committee. Open sessions during the entire rat ification debate are expected by the leaders on both sides, and the foreign relations committee may also open its doors during some of its hearings. At these hearings, it was said today, President Wilson would not be asked to appear, although Secretary Lansing and other members of the peace dele gation are expected to be Invited to tell in executive session the confiden tial story of the decisions reached at Versailles. Treaty Action to Be Delayed. Consideration of the treaty by the committee, to which it will go as soon as it reaches the senate, probably will','' not begin until next Monday. The purpose of the leaders to give the treaty widest publicity was appar ent in all the plans made during the day. It was said that an effort would be made to place a copy in the hands of every American citizen who de sired it. Senator Sherman, republican, of Illi nois, introduced a resolution asking the president by what authority he had undertaken "to Impose upon the people of this country and to make its government subject to the league of nations." Secret Treaty Wanted. The resolution describes the league a3 containing "all the necessary vital organs of an independent government whose powers are absolute over the member nations." ' Under the rules the measure went over without action. President Wilson was asked in a ; resolution introduced today by Senator Lodge to transmit to the senate. "If not incompatible with the public inter est." a copy of an alleged secret treaty between Japan and Germany, and Information as to whether this alleged covenant had been abrogated. The resolution was referred to the foreign relations committee without discussion.. W ilson Fares Busy Week. When President Wilson returns to hh-r-desk tomorrow he will face what probably will prove his .busiest week in the White House. The president will deal with the subjects before him with as great speed as possible, so he may start soon on his specchmaking trip. It is said he would like to leave Washing ton about the middle of next week. Among matters awaiting the presi dent's immediate attention are bills passed recently by congress carrying appropriations of more than 82,000,000,- 000. Among the measures are the annual army, navy and agricultural bills and the deficiency and sundy civil measures. It appeared tonight all the bills would quickly become law, with the possible exception of the agricultural easure, which carries a rider repeal- ng the daylight saving law.
