(To be continued tomorrow.) Objections to League Answered by Quotations From His Own and Kooscvclt's Addresses. BY JOSEPH P. TUMULTY. (Copyright. lfH. by Doiibleday. rage Co. All rights reserved, published by Ar. rangeincnt.) CHAPTER XL (Continued). W'oodrow Wilson believed that the league of nations was the first moot em attempt to prevent war by dis cussion In the open and not behind closed doors or within the cloistered retreats of European diplomacy. To him the league of nations was the essence of Christianity. Yet when he took up the advocacy of the league of nations Senator Lodge, the spokes man of the republican party at the dinner of the League to Enforce I'eace, became the leader In bitter opposition to it. Senator Lodge at this very dinner, Nay 27, 1916, delivered the follow ing address: I know, and no one, I think, ran know fcetler than one who haa served long In the senate, which la charged with an im portant share In the ratification and con firmation of ail treatiea, no one can, 1 tlilnk, ieel more deeply than 1 do the ifflcultiea which confront us in the work which this league that la, the great as sociation extending throughout the coun try, known as the league to enforce peace undertakes, but the difflcultiea cannot be overcome unless we try to overcome them. 1 bplteve much can be done. Probably It will be Impossible to atop all ware, but It certainly will be possible to stop some wars, and thus diminish their number. The way in which this problem must be worked out must be left to thus league and to those who are giving this great subject the studys which it deserves. 1 know the obslacles. 1 know how quickly We shall be met with tile statement that this la a dangerous question which you are putting Into your argument, that no nation can submit to the Judgment of other nationa, and. we must be careful at the beginning not to attempt too much. I know the Difficulties which arljte when we apeak of anything which seems to in volve an alliance, but I do not believe that when Washington warned us against en tmgllng alliances he meant for one mo ment that we should not Join with the other civilized nationa of the world If a method could be found to diminish war and encourage peace. It was a year ago In delivering the chan cellor's adiireKS at Union college, 1 made an Argument on this theory, that It we were to promote International peace At the close of the preaent terrible war, If we were to reMore International law as It must be restored, we must find some way In which the united fortei of the nations could be put behind the cause of peaco and law. I said then that my near era might think that 1 was picturing an Vtnpia hut it is In the anarch of Utopia that great discoveries are made. Not failure but low aim is the crime. This league certainly has the highest of all alms for the benefits of humanity and because tho pathway Is sown with diffi culties Is no reason that we should turn from It. Itooarvrlt Also Quoted. Theodore IUonevelt, in his Nobel prize thesis, also expressed himself as follows with reference to an associa tion of nations: The one permanent move for obtaining peace which haa jet been suggested with any reasonable chance of obtaining Its olucct U by an agreement among the great power. In which each should pledg-e ilKclf not only to abide by the decision of a common tribunal, but to back with force the decision of that common tribunal. The great civilised nations of the world which do not poHP.-a force. actUAl or im mediately potential, should combine by solemn agreement In a great world league lor tho peace of righteouaneFa. Upon the president taking up the league of nations fight. Senator Lodge drew away from It as if in fear and trembling and began discussing our responsibilities abroad, evidenc ing a complete change of heart. He no longer asked Americans to be gen erous and fearless, but said. The hearts of the vast majority of man kind would beat on strongly without any quickening if the league were to perish altogether. The first objection to the league of nations urped by Senator Lodge was that it Involved the surrender of our sovereignty. There is a striking analogy between the argument of iienntor Lodge and those put forth by gentlemen in Washington's day, who feared that the proposed constitution which was designed to establish a federal union would mean danger, op pression and disaster. Mr. Singletary of Massachusetts. Mr. Lowndes of South Carolina, Mr. Gray son of Virginia, even Patrick Henry himself foresaw the virtual subjuga tion of the states through a constitu tion, which at that time was often called the treaty between the 13 states. Analogy Carried Farther. As Senator Brandegee and others contended that the covenant of the league of nations was a "muddy, murky and muddled document," so Mr. Williams of New York In 1788 charged ambiguity" against the proposed con stitution, saying that it was "abso lutely Impossible to know what we give up and what we retain." Mandates and similar bogies had their counterpart in Washington's day. treorge Mason, fearful like Senator Sherman of Illinois in a later day, "apprehended the possibility of con gress calling In the militia of Georgia to iiuell disturbances in New Hamp shire." The attitude of George Washington In his dity was very similar to that of V.'ooilrow Wilson. Writing to Knox on August 19. 1797, he paid: "I am fully persuaded Jt (meaning the fed eral constitution) is the best that can be obtained at this time. And, as a constitutional door is open for amend ment hereafter, our adoption of It, un der the present circumstances of the union is. in my opinion, desirable." And of the opponents of the proposed constitution he said: "The major part of them will, it is to be feared, be gov erned by sinister and self-important motives." The storm center of the whole fight against the league was the opposition personally conducted by Senator Lodge and others of the republican party against the now famous article ten. The basis of the whole republican op position was their fear that America wouldh.ive to bear some responsibility in the affairs of the world, while the strength of Woodrow Wilson's posi tion was his faith that out of the war, with all Its blood and tears, would come this great consummation. " President's Idea Plain. It was the president's Idea that we should go into the league and bear our responsibilities; that we should enter it as gentlemen, scorning privi lege. He did not wish us to sneak In and enjoy its advantages and shirk its responsibilities, but he wanted America to enter boldly and not as a hypocrite. With reference to the argument made by Senator Lodge against our going Into the league, saying that it would be a surrender of American sovereignty and a loss of her freedom, the president often asked the question on his western trip: How can a nation preserve its freedom except through FARMERS T 25 COURSES Programme Is Announced by Agricultural College.

Children Who Wrote The Oregonian for Canine Pet Also Get Pres ents for Yuletide. When it comes to bringing good fortune, a yellow dog is better than a barrel of assorted four-leaf clovers, horseshoes and rabit feet. That, at least, is the belief of the Kihs family of Orenco, where Julius Caesar, a mongrel puppy, took up his abode last Friday to the Joy of the eight Kihs youngsters, the broken hearted kiddies who wrote to The Oregonian for a dog to replace their beloved Foxy, victim of poisoned meat. Another act was added to the Christmas drama of the house of Kihs Saturday by Mrs. James Forbes, wife of a leading Portland florist. Mrs. Forbes visited the Kihs home with many bulby boxes and packages. There were warm clothes, shoes and stockings to add to the scanty ward robe of the children. One mysterious Vundle was hidden away, after a whispered conference between Mrs. Forbes and Mrs. Kihs. The bundle was filled with toys. Thus Santa Claus came to a little country home. led. not by prancing reindeer, but by a wistful yellow dog. THEATER MANAGER DIES John C. Fisher Succumbs Suddenly In Chicago. CHICAGO. Dec. 18. John C.

TREASURE HUHT PLANNED LOS ANGELES MAX TO LOOK FOIt GOLD AND WHISKY. $1,000,000 In Gold and 364 Bar rels of Liquor Object of Expe dition in California. LOS ANGELES. Dec. 8. (Special.) One million dollars in gold and 864 barrels of 60-year-old whisky have been discovered by a Los Angeles man, and he is now fitting out an ex pedition to recover the treasure. The fortunate man is F. B. Mans field, a real estate dealer, who learned of the wealth awaiting him while on a vacation tour in northern California. The gold and whisky formed the cargo of the ship Brother Jonathan which sank off Crescent City July 30, 1865. Official data obtained at Wash ington confirmed the statement re garding the cargo and sinking of the vessel, which carried several hundred persons to their grave. Mr. Mansfield i at present In Berkeley fitting out an expedition to salvage the treasure. He has associ ated with him M. D. Kelley of Mil waukee, and they have obtained the services' of W. G. Smith, a diver of Milwaukee, who has prepared a large metel bell with which he expects to reach the sunken vessel. The wreck is said to lie in 320 feet of water and to be readily accessible to divers. Active operations are to be started as soon as the diving bell has been completed and taken to the rpot. While visiting at Crescent City Mr. Mansfield became acquainted with Silas White, a pioneer of that town, along the beach one day. Mr. White told the story of the ill-fated Brother Jonathan. Mr. Mansfield became interested In the story and was taken to a ceme tery where 200 bodies from the wreck had been buried by Digger Indians following the disaster. Mr. Mansfield was shown the rock that had sent the ship to its doom and with that as a starting point, he used a special In strument designed to detect the pres ence of precious metals. This Instru ment, he declares, accurately locates sunken gold and he ls certain the sal vage efforts will be richly rewarded. Upon hearing White's Btory, Mans field Interested his friend In Milwau kee and a search of the shipping rec ords at Washington was made. There It was found that the official data coincided with the tale and plans for salvaging the wreck were begun. Mansfield and Kelley raised sufficient funds to employ the diver and outfit a ship. If fortune favors them they expect to have the gold and the whis ky in their possession within the next two months. So certain is Mansfield of raising the treasure that he has asked the Internal revenue bureau for a ruling regarding what disposi tion he may be able to make of the rare old whisky. In the 66 years that have passed since the vessel sank, the company that owned the craft has passed out of existence, and the valuable, cargo now belongs to the person who finds It. The gold carried was being sent irom Portland and V'.ctorla to the government mint at San Francisco. PORTLAND MAN IS FINED Walter Morlarty Pleads- Guilty to Possessing Moonshine.
