FRIENDS OF TREATY
SENATE HOPEFUL
: Defeat of Johnson Amendment
Freely Predicted.
4 60 VOTES HELD PROMISED
- Pact Should JJe Ratified Without
J. Delay, Says Robert Lansing,
Secretary of State.
WASHINGTON", Sept. 20. Democratic
leaders in the senate challenged today
the claim of republican opponents of
the league of nations, covenant that
enough pledges had been obtained, to
secure adoption of Senator Johnson's
amendment designed to equalise British
and American voting power in the
league assembly. While they expressed
supreme confidence and predicted at
least 50 votes against the amendment
enough to defeat it these senators
finally got . in touch with Vice-Prei-deht
Marshall insisting: tlvat he return
in time for the first Veal test vote on
the treaty, expected next week.
The senate was not in session and
Chairman Lodge of the foreign rela
tions committee was not at his office
during th& day, and republicans say
they had rested on their oars, waiting
for the contest Monday.
Mild" Party Cuata Noses.
"Mild" reservationists, some of whom
claimed to hold the balance of power,
were active conferring and counting
noses to see how many of their num
ber would vote against the Johnson
amendment. Some of their claims ran
as high as eight. .
Both sides were expecting: help from
this group, but there was no -certainty
as to how the majority might line up.
Democratic leaders, in predicting 50
v les against the Johnson amendment,
out of a total of 96. counted on- the
support of many of this group, in view
of the general belief that five demo
crats would be found with the repub
licans in the lineup on the amendment
fight.
Hitchcock for Haste.
! Senator Hitchcock said today that
every effort would be made to hasten
consideration of the treaty because of
the "insistent demand" from business
people for final settlement. There was
no indication, however, as to how soon
a vote might be called for on the John
son amendment.
WATERTOWN, N. T., Sept. 20. 'The
treaty should be ratified without delay
and without change," declared Secre
tary of State Robeit Lansing here to
day in the first public utterance made
by him since the statement of William
'C. Bullitt before . the senate foreign
relations committee in which it was"
alleged that the secretary of state on
May 19 in Paris said that if the Ameri
can people knew what was In - the
treaty they -would .deleat.-iC- -Sovereignty
Hel Safe.
"In the treaty of peace," Mr. Lansing
further said, "there is nothing which
invades the sovereignty of this republic
or which limits in any way the full
exercise of such sovereignty,"
Mr. Lansing spoke at the dedication
of Lansingdorf, a -suburb of Water
town, erected fey the government to
hou.se munition workers and named in
honor of the home of the Lansing fam
ily in Holland. He made no direct
reference Xo the-Bullitt testimony, con
leitting himself with saying that the
treaty as if is should be- ratified. " . ;
IVevr Era Approaching.
"We are approaching a new era," he
said, "an era of peace, and. as I con
fidently believe, an era of national
prosperity unsurpassed in our history.
The people of . the earth ardently long
to enter upon this era that they may
begin to rebuild that which has been
destroyed. This cannot be done until
normal commercial and industrial con
ditions are restored and they can only
be restored by ratifying the treaty of
peace.
"In the treaty there is nothing which
invades the sovereignty of this repub
lic or which limits in any way the full
exercise of such sovereignty.
"There may be in the treaty features
which do not meet universal approval.
It would be strange if it were other
wise. But the objections which have
been made to certain provisions are
trivial compared with the imperative
need of peace.
Peace Keedd at Once.
"We ought to have peace at once.
The treaty should, be ratified .without
delay and without change.
"It is a - narrow-minded statesman
ship which would endanger the going
into effect of. the treaty by changing
its provisions and thereby postponing
the return of peace. I cannot compre
hend how any man with a true ap
preciation of the situation can permit
any objection less than the impairment
of the national sovereignty of the
United States to weigh against the uni
versal "rayer of the nation for the
restoration of peace." '

cial.) Hood River's first county fair
was held here today. Citisens, their
family livestdck and the products of the
soil, were on dress parade. The school
pupils participated in their eighth an
nual industrial school fair, and many
persons" who viewed the extensive ex
hibits today were of the opinion that
the children's enthusiasm exceeded
that of the adults.
Exhibits of grain and livestock were
of high quality. Ranchers of the val
ley were complimented by Mrs. Winnie
Braden. state exhibit agent for the
North Pacific Land Products show, and
many of the exhibits will be taken to
Portland for the annual land show.
Stock Exhibits Soeceu.
The fair showed that . Hood River
farmers, who five years ago were be
ginning stock raising as a novelty, have
succeeded and that dairying and di
versified farming have become a per
manent and profitable adjunct to ap
ple growing. Twnty-eight bead of
pure-bred cattle, nearly all - Jerseys,
two of them but recently arrived from
the Isle of Jersey, seven species of
hogs and sheep and goats were shown.
The chicken and poultry pens were the
most interesting of the open-air exhibits.
Seven rooms of the high school were
filled with displays of the valley's
school children, the walls of the audi
torium were lined with paintings, and
tables bore treasured trophies from
valley homes.
The climax of the fair was reached
this afternoon when one of the for
estry service airplanes arrived here
and for 30 minutes thrilled the crowd
with its maneuvers.
Boy's Invention Shown.
A large tent on the high school ath
letic grounds was devoted entirely to
exhibits of fruits, pears, apples and
peaches and harvest labor-saving ma
chines. Four locally-invented apple
sizing machines were on display. One
of these was developed the past winter
by Ken Cox, Oak Grove school boy.
aged 18. Numerous other labor-saving
devices were on display, and this tent,
perhaps, created more Interest than any
other among thy orchardlsts.
Hood River .valley held a stock show
in 1915, wher.u exhibits of livestock
were very 1 cd. That fair, however,
gave a stimulus to the Hood River
creamery, a co-operative organization
of orchardlsts. now on of - the most
successful institutions of the com
munity, and as a result of the profits
to be derived monthly from cream
checks. t?ie orchardlst without a cow
is an exception to the general rule.
Displays of cows and pure-bred hogs
filled a 100-foot shed.
Stores of City Close.
The Apple Growers' association was
tepresented at the fair by a large map.
graphically setting forth the organiza
tion's international sales machinery.
Exhibits of art. kitchen and needle
craft were housed In rooms of the high
school. Tempting hot graham gems,
thickly spread with Hood River butter,
were distrlbJted by pretty girls repre
senting the Highland Milling company,
the plant of which is nearing com
pletion. A tractor demonstration was aeld
west of the city today.
'To give their employes an opportu
nity to view the exhibits all stores of
the city were closed in the afternoon.

cial.) Louis Plomondon of Vader says

was brought to a Centralia hospital
with a badiy "fractured arm, the injury
