Proposed New Regulations ' Would
Add to Expense of Dealers.
By Hynti H. Cohen
Instead. of the cost of living going to
a lower point as has Teen generally
wished for and anticipated, there is rea
son to believe at thin time that many
products will be higher. Added cost of
doing business! is one of the big fac
tors at the moment and there seems to
be no end to the additional expense that
the retailers are compelled to tolerate.
Just now the entire wholesale and re
tall trade Is very much concerned over
the proposition ef covering its entire
fruit holdings with glass or other suit
able materials to keep out the flies and
dirt as well as the air.
If this measure should become a law
it will not only mean that the publie
will be forced to pay more for Its fruit
products because the retailer will be
compelled to build new containers at
heavy expense, but the quality will de
teriorate instead of Improve.
If fruit Is placed under glass It means
that no air can reach It and It will soon
decay. It is clearly shown when fruit
is Bent In boxcars it quickly spoils. If
sent In regular refrigerator care and
even Jn open cattle ears, it arrives in
better condition because it needs air,

J0HU" DAY GRAIS CROP
TOO SMALL, FOR SEED
Baker, Sept. S. Reports from the upper
John Day valley indicate that the grain erop
in that district will not even provide seed for
fall and spring vowing. Many pf the ranchers
will, be compelled to buy all of their seed.
Thrashing is now nearly completed and the re
sult has been so meager that unprecedented
local prices are predicted.
Corn ia not yet matured and It Is feared that
this crop, too may be blighted by frost, for the
temperature has been dropping rapidly, during
the last few days. A few light showers re
cently have brought but little relief from the
drouth.

Retail grain dealers who purchase dl
rectly from the producer will come un
der the licensing system of ther grain
corporation, according to announcement
just made by Max H. Houser, Becond
vice president, from his Portland head
quarters. He advises :
"At a recent meeting of the director of the
United State Grain corporation, at New Yerfc
city, it was determined to define a little more
clearly what constitute a retail transaction in
the purchase of wheat
"Under th license requirement, retailer
are oot required to have -liceiises, but it ia now
determined that the purchase of wheat direct
from the farmer for th purpose of resale, or
manufacture, no matter how small the quantity,
is not a .retail transaction, and that persons en
gaged in sttch operations muft have license. Ab.
the handling of seed wheat, so matter bow small
the Quantity, cannot be considered a retail trans
action, and such dealer must hold lioense. Deal
ers in damaged wheat, unlit for human consump
tion, who may purchase such damaged wheat
direct from tlie farmer, miut have a license.
"Retail dealers who purchase wheat entirely
from licensed operators are not required to hare
license. '
"License application blanks my be obtained
upon request at thia offie."
Weakness ia generally shown in the market
for milistuffa and some of the mills are reported
as selling at $37 a ton.

ticles tn it I want to tell you all about,
thia great human document The war
ust ended was no accident. It waa
deliberately planned. For nearly fifty
years the French people had expected
and dreaded this war. The? French peo
ple wanted us, when we went to Paris
to make peace, to take steps to prevent
any recurrence of the terror of many
years. They wanted removed this spec
tre of terror and the accepted rule that
the strong have all the rights."
SAME OLD GAME
The president then repeated his for
mer statements dealing with the respon
sibility of Germany for the war. He
then dexlared that one of the greatest
centers of intrigue in the ; past waa
Constantinople.
"The pawns ef the rame of Cluropfran
politics were at the Turkish capttaV
said tho president.
"Elvery international conference that
has preceded that still in' progress In
paria has been designed to play the
game of the domination ef the weak
by the strong. For the first time tn the
history of the world a peace conference
is being held that takes care of the
weak.
COIfTBMPTIBLE TO WITHDRAW
"This treaty I brought back is de
signed to protect tbe weak nations of
thej world. This is not an altruistic sen
timent. - ir we do not tane care or me
weak we will have more wars.
"Having gone into this affair I want
the gentlemen who would withdraw
now to show me how they will not be
contemptible quitters If they withdraw
now before the objects for which we
entered the war are fully completed.
"We entered his war to destroy Ger
man aggression. Look at the map. There
you find Poland, Roumania, Hungary.

which we have declared will te oe-
streved forever. Without the Lieague

future wars if they are to come. America.
cannot mind her own business, iz we
were to do sd we would be suspected and
despised. This treaty Is to be applied
whether W ratify it Or not. '
REPRESENTATION NEEDED
"Germany must be restored industri
ally. She must be rehabilitated indus
1 trially and commercially. The repara
tions commission is to do this, l humoiy
asked leave to have a member of this
commission to look out for our interests
and I was rebuked for it. Yet I waa
looking out for the interests of the
United States. We must have represen-
tation on this commission or the country
itself will suffer. Do not forget that
If we axe not represented on that com
mission, then we will find our Interests
looked after by people who have no
interest in our affairs.
This brings me to the other fact that
the mothers and fathers of this country
gavc their sons to fight for human jus
tice. That was the object of the United
States entering the war. They tell you
that the Lague of Nations ia a combina
tion of the world for war. That Is ex
actly what it is not. It is a league to
set up a system of arbitration and dis
cussion in the world- The members
agree not to go to war without arbitrat
ing or discussing their grievances. They
Pledge themselves not to go to war un
til alter six manias ui oibuumihiii ouo
additional month, of effort to se-
cure a peacetui agreement. xn&t, in
itself, will prevent war.
DISCUSSION COOLING
"War is a process of heat. Discussion
is one of cooling. What we propose In
the league is that all warm questions
shall be spread out to be cooled with
. . - nsllM ttt.t
dlaousaion. And a nation that refuses
to abide by these pledges is outlawed.
We do not have to raise an army to
fight thia. We boycott them. We closa
their territory. They absolutely are
boycotted by the rest of mankind and
1 don't think with that remedy fight
ing will be necessary at all.
'Wrhat brought Germany to her Kneea
waa the application of the economic
boycott to aid the military forces. And
remember that there is hardly a
ropean nation that has food enough to
K 00ir.nrvrrtlnr Shut off this food
supply and no nation will fight long.
You cannot fight long on an empty
stomach, any more than you can wor
ship God on an empty stomach.

DEFENDS ARTICLE X.
The president then launched into a
very elaborate defense of Article Ten,
repeating his declaration made to the
senate foreign relations committee
that it - was absolutely necessary to
stamp out militarism. It is designed,
he said, to protect xnd preserve the
territorial integrity of all nations.
The president again emphasised that
an unanimous vote is necessary to set
tle any controversies that may arise.
"We can control the action of the
council of the league with our vote." he
continued. "Don't forget "thia. Kvery
men who sat at the peace table agreed
that the right of revolution waa Bacred,'
so the covenant provides for defense
from external aggression only. When
you read article 10 you will ate that it

I would have to tell them that they
fought for something that they did not
get. I would have to tell them that
another struggle was certain In which
millions would have to fight to Xlnally
end war for all time." "
Crowds which cheered and, with wav
ing flags, struggled through police lines
and swarmed about his automobile,
greeted President Wilson here today.
The noise of voices mingled In tre
mendous shouts of welcome was con
tinuous all the way from the outskirts
of the city, where the presidential special
stopped, to the hotel where Wilson went
for a short rest before making his
speech at the chamber ef commerce
luncheon, demanding ratification ef the
peace treaty unamended.
Wilson's smile waei always In evidence
as he flourished his straw hat in re
sponse, sometimes standing up In his
automobile to bow his appreciation.
Hanks of troops from Jefferson bar
racks presented arms as the president
and Mrs. Wilson stepped from the train,
and a military band played "The Star
Spangled Banner." The crowds at this
point rushed the lines of soldiers, good
naturedly jostled aside the boys In
khaki, who carried rifles with fixed
bayonets, and massed around Wilson's
machine, striving to shake hands.
In addition to the people on the side
walks alopg the route to the hotel, every
window was filled ancj many were on the
roofs. Signs had been pasted in a num
ber of windows bearing such messages
as "Tell it to 'em, Woodrow," and
"We're with you. Woodrow."
One automobile bearing a huge placard
demanding lifting of the war-time prohi
bition ban dodged down side streets and
confronted the president at' a number of
points. It waa filled with women,
shrilly cheering and waving banners.
More 'troops were drawn up in the
streets around the hotel and every en
trance was guarded. ' The lobby was
packed. As Wilson walked in. a band in
a gallery struck up lively airs. The
president paused at the elevator a few
moments to talk with members of the
reception committee, then went to his
suite.
WELCOME JENTHU8IA8TIC
Mrs. Wilson received much applause,
especially from the women and her
name was frequently heard a!6ng the
line of march, .along with the cries of
"Woodrow!" Women acKjged, the police
and ran alongside the president's auto
mobile to get snapshots of her, begging
her to "look this way, please, for a min
ute," and "Mrs. Wilson, let's see your
face."
The reception at 8L Louis was held
by many in the president's party to be
the most enthusiastic he has received
since he left Washington.
The president expects that the treAy
will speedily be ratified by the senate.
To all callers today he declared that he
had not the slightest doubt ef the final
outcome. He believes that there will
be complete defeat ' for all textual
amendments and that whatever reserva
tions are adopted will be of a nature
that will not necessitate sending the
treaty back to the other nations to ratify
such reservaions.
TIME TO PUT IP OR SHUT
LP, WILSON TELLS SKNATE
By Jay Jerome William
Indianapolis. Ind., Sept. 5. President
Wilson Thursday night sounded a .chal
lenge to the critics of Ahe peace treaty
to bring forth a counter proposal.
"You cannot preserve or restore the
peace of the world by negotiation," said
the president "The only way you can
beat a program is by the presentation
of a better program."
"If I may be permitted ' to use a
homely expression, I should say to the
people who are critics of this treaty,
that it is time to put up or shut up."
The crowd was so huge it was un
manageable. Added to this feature was
the unfortunate occurrence which be
fell Governor Goodrich of Indiana,
who was intended to Introduce the presi
dent. The governor made the mistake
of talking too long, and the crowd re
sented it
All told the president received a great
greeting from Indianapolis. The state fair
is in progress here and Thursday was
the big day. As a result the streets from
the railway to the fair grounds, a dis
tance of more than four miles, were
packed with people and automobiles, and
the president, with a band leading the
procession a portion of the way, was
cheered and applauded. The welcome
was on a larger and more enthusiastic
scale than at Columbus, and this was
significant in view of the fact that the

at Columbus not only seemed to ea .-
hibit faith In the man who was exhort-,
ing them anew to follow his leadership.
Again and again the president failed te "
explain why the people should accept
his view rather than the view of the' V
treaty ODBonents. but Instated that the
people ought to rend the treaty and see ;
for themselves, and If they did not read
It. then they should accept the tnterVf
pretation of the men who made the,.
treaty and knew what was Intended, It -is
the familiar appenl asking; the pea
pie to' have faith. Indeed, that idea in , -his
speech seemed to get more applause
than any other. . For through Mr. Wil
son's speech ran a sentimental note -constant
exaltation of American ideals
and principles and ef the promise made
to the lads who died the promise to
make this a war against war. The pres
ident has put on his campaign cto.thre.
He Is trying to get close to the people
on this trip and to translate the tech v
nical language of the treaty into un -
derstandable Americanisms. ' ,
MILITARISM POIMT GROWING V
He seta thunderous apphtuse as he -
reverts to the Declaration of Independ
ence and the rights of people to govern ! '
themselves and then transfers his audi'
ence to Bohemia and to Poland and ex- "
claims that the treaty la "shot through .
with American principles or self govern- (
ment." Instead, too, of talking about
"plebiscites." Mr. Wilson wisely speaks
on the "referendum," by which the peo-
pie of upper Hiiema are to be given an
opportunity in American style to say
whether they wish to belong to Cer
many or to Poland. ' In simple language
he showed in one speech why "strategic1
frontiers" had been rejected as a prin
ciple in disposing of territories wrested.
from .Germany, and .why, under a Lsegur-"'
of Nations, Italy would not need Flume. ,
1-ut he promptly added that if there
were no league, not only would Italy ;
need a strategic frontier but that the
military point of view would prevail.'
everywhere, Undoubtedly Mrt Wilson,
will make more of this point ss he goes '
farther west Into country which doesn't
believe In large armies or navies and
which Is always ready to embrace some
other system that really means peace
and not a mere truce.
TALKS WITH CORRESPONDENTS
The president strolled Into the club
car atnd chatted with the correspon-"
dents between stations. He seemed
eager to answer questions and talk
about the treaty. He made It clear
that he doe not propose to enter Into" .
a debate In the senate at long dis-
t nr.o Thai wnliM tn filfllM Via thlnlra.
because it would divert attention front
the main Issue what the treaty con
tains whlaji is so valuable to the
American people that they cannot af--ford
to reject It. The president be
lieves his mlasion is simply to explain
the treaty and to dlsouss only luclden
tally the objections which have been
raised against It. He wouldn't admit
that he had Senator Knox In mind as
he declared the terms imposed upon
Ourmany were to be severe, but not
unjust. Senator Knox argued the very
opposite last week. Nor would Mr.
Wilson say later that he v.as th!nklnfl
of Ireland as he referred feelingly in
his Columbus speech to other wrongs
In Europe which needed to be righted
and would be righted, but could, not
be dealt with at Paris because the
conference had Jurisdiction onlyi fver
territories wrested from the enemy.
MEANS END 01 WARS
The Inference wa plain that under
a league oi nations mere woura , m '
jurisdiction over the Irish question
if it threatened the peace of the werld. 1
Another criticism which Mr. Wilson '
did answer In his speech was that ;
which claims America will be obliged
continuously to send troops to fight '
in foreign countries. A desfening roar
of applause greeted the president aa .
he said in conclusion: "wnen ma ;
treaty is accepted, men in khaki will
not have to cross the seas again.
All through the Columbus speech, the
president - seemed anxious to tell tha t
proletariat that the program of "no an-
nexntiona and no Indemnities" had beew
fulfilled. He denied that the former .
German "colonies had been "annexed.-n
He praised tbe system of trusteeship
which he said would enable the peoples
iivinr hitherto under German rule to
develop into self governing nations. He
etreoced the fact that no indemnity was
levied upon Germany but merely repara- t.
lion for damage done. And In closing '
he appealed again to the working masses
by his emphasising the "Magna Charta" -of
labor drawn at Paris and the Interna-
tlonal labor conference soon -to be held J

Humanitarian phases of the treaty
suppression of opium and liquor traffic
in backward area of the world, sanita
tion, extension of the work of the Red ;
Cross against disease these and other
thl-igs which tho president described as '
a "league of the fine passions of the
world," made a deep impression on thtv
audience. Mr. Wilson sought to reach
the heart of the people anew and re-
r,aln the faith which neglect of domes-f
tic problems or his absence abroad or-'
the rain of acute ills like the cost of '
living have tended to drive away. The
president may not have converted his r
audience to a sudden Interest In for--
elgn policy but he left them warmer
than he found them.
