REPUBLICAN PAR1Y
IN LODGE'S HOME
Platform Adopted at Convention
With Lodge Present Declares
for; Approval Without Change.
SENATOR CHANGES FRONT
Tells Republicans He Is Trying
to Save League by Agreement
Between Parties in the Senate.
Washington, Oct. 21. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OK THE JOUR
NAD What happened at the Mas
sachusetts Republican state conven
tion, wien a platform was adopted
declaring for ratification of the
treaty of peace without amendment,
" has become clearer "With the receipt
of complete reports from the gath
ering at Tremont, temple in Boston.
Tremendous Interest in this unex
pected note from the Massachusetts con
vention has followed, because In the
StaUi of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge,
chairman of the foreign relations com
mlUee of the senate and the Republican
leader, it had been assumed that Sena
tor Lodge would dominate and be able
to , scure the kind of platform he
wanted.
LOB COMPMtTEI-T BEATE3T
Th. full report of tfie convention
how that Lodze bad a big fight on
his hands and that wben the leading Re
publicans of Massachusetts went on rec
ord for ratification of the treaty with
out amendment ' it was not a fluke.
Lodge' vaa present and the fact that he
was supporting amendments was fully
realised.', The platform was a direct
slap at Lodge and how keenly he felt it
was shown in bis remarks from the
platform before fbe convention ad
journed. He said he accepted the plat
form, and had no desire to discuss It,
but.
"The words are there, without amend
ment' 'ratification without amend
1 ment'-" he said. "That is the opinion of
the-convention, of the committee first,
then of the convention. I did not con
test? It. but I must express my own opin
ion upon It, in Justice to you, as well as
roytslf." ;
Lodge proceeded to explain that he
had voted for amendments, and that
he intends to vote for others, although
"the party of his home state only an
hour or so before had condemned amend
ments. He made his usual defense. The
- significant thing that Is seen tn all this
hert In Washington is that Lodge was
'on he defensive before a Republican
' coutf convention of his home state.
CAMOUFLAGES .MIS STAND
Ttere is also some amusement that
Lodfe posed as a "saviour" of the treaty.
He uiswered that he hopes yet to "save
It" ty reservations, . and he wants to
saValt still further by adopting amend
ment! which upon any theory of the
case and by his own admission would
send;he treaty back to another peace
conference and back to Germany. In
that class are the Fall, the Shantung
and he Johnson amendments, all 01
which Lodge supports.
Lodfe told the convention that there
are. strong men in Washington who
want kill the treaty and . said : :
"I hive stood there trying to get an
agreement on .these "four reservations.
I thlnfc ' I have succeeded completely,
and If Ihose -reservations are adopted the
treaty will be saved saved with -probably
rut more than one amendment."
POSEB AS LEAGUE'S FRIEND
Thejfour reservations referred to ar
" the reservations reported from Lodge's
committee? including the one on article
1C which the mild reservation Republic
ans hae refused to accept, and which
Lodge Mmself has practically abandoned
In the form In which he framed It.
The Mdge reservation on article 10
died sorfre time ago. The other reserva
tions, whlch he proudly told the conven
tion "re known by my name," dla
not' originate with Lodge, but were
worked! out In detail weeks before by
other members of the senate, with only
slight tariation.
A fair sample of Lodge statement
while be was Instructing his party breth
ren tn Tremont Temple is contained In
the concluding paragraph of his speech
when he said: ' ! - ' - - ,i , '
WAR HELD rNNECESSART I
UThey.aay the world looks' to us. The
world looked to us In1 1917. Did we fall?
We went la and turned the wavering
scale. No league sent us there. . The
United States. will always go to the de
fense of human liberty and civilization.
Under the 'pressure of the great menace
of German autocracy. I .helped, to send
the United States on that mission. On a
like demand I would do it again, much
as I hate war. But I will not, if I
can prevent it, have my beloved country
tangled in every petty, broil of Europe."
Friends of the league believe that the
Lodge speech has not helped his cause.
They - argue, as President Wilson has
said, as leadtna- allied statesmen have
said, and as thevjimkers of Germany re
cently appear to admit, that had there
been a League of Nations to discuss
the awful threat in 1914 and delay the
appeal to arms, there would have been
no war then, and no need up to the
present cay ror the United States to "go
in, u Lodge puts It.
PRESIDENT ANSWERED LODGE
They argue that as Lodge Is willing
to "go In" again whenever another great
threat comes, which without a league
may be very soon, he-Is not In strong
position when- he proposes to stand by
until the war is at band, instead of
Joining with other nations to prevent the
coming of another day of that sort.
Finally, It is pointed out. the last
sentence of the quotation fron Lodge
above assumes that the League of Na
tions would entangle the United States
in "every petty broil of Europe." How
the league actually will work In the
case of a petty broil in Europe may
oe stated oy an extract from the ad
dress of the president at Salt Lake:
"These gentlemen," he said, referring
to the antagonists of the league, "sa,
'We do not want the United States
drawn into every litUe European squab
ble.' LESSON LEARNED ONCE
"Of course w do not, and under
League of Nations it is entirely within
our choice whether we will or not. The
normal processes of the action of th.
league are certainly to be this:
"When trouble arises In the Balkans,
when somebody sets up a fire some
where In central Europe among those
little nations, which are for the time
being looking upon one another with a
good deal of jealousy and suspicion,
because the passions of the world have
not cooled whenever that .happens, the
council of the league will confer as to
the best methods of putting out the Are.
"If you want to put out a fire in
Utah, you do not send to Oklahoma for
the fire engine. If you want to put
out a fire in the Balkans, If you want
to . stamp out the smouldering flame
in some part of Central Europe, you
do not send to the United States for
troops. ' The council of the league will
select the powers which are most ready,
most available, most suitable, and select
them only at their ojvn consent, so that
the United States would in no circum
stances conceivably be drawn In unless
the flame spread to the world.
"And would they then be left out, even
If they were not members of the league?
You have seen the fire spread to the
world once, and did you not go in?"
Murder or, Suicide :
Question? Undecided
By Public Officials
Yakima. Wash.. Oct- . Whether E.
W. Kelly, alias Ernest Tange. commit
ted suicide or was murdered Is a matter
of, contention between Dr. H. R. Wells,
coroner, and 3. M. Gllmore, chief Of po
lice. Kelly was found fully dressed on
a rug outside his room at an early hour
Friday morning with his throat cut from
ear to ear 'by a raor. ::;; - -
The fact that the roommate notified
the landlady 'that his, partner was Ml
and had disappeared "with luggage and
personal effect Is cited by Chief Oil
more in support of the murder theory.
The fact that Kelly's throat waa clean
cut with his own rasor; which he wore
on a string around his neck., leais the
coroner to his Conclusion.- , j

Film Destroys Teeth
That slimy film which you feel on your teeth causes ,
moat tooth troubles. Every modern dentist knows that.
Dental science, or many years, hat sought a way to end it
s That film Is what diacolors, not the teeth. . It fs the batia
of tartar. It holds food subataace which ferments and ;
forms acid. It holds tho acid in contact with the teeth to
cauee decay. -
Millions of germt breed In it They, with tartar.' art :
the chief cause of pyorrhea. So the major object in dean- -ing
teeth is to keep them free from film.
mm
Old-time methods fail to do that. Teeth still diacolor, .,
still decay, as millions of people know. The reason is that
brushing does not end the film.
The film is clinging. It gets between the teeth, enter 1
crevice and stays. Day and night, month after month, it
is a potential source of danger.
Now a Way to End It
Science now has found a way to end it Five years of ;
teats have proved thia. Theway is now embodied in a' ,
dentifrice cauea fepsoaent. Ana we urge you to see
what it does. ,
" Pepsodent is baaed on pepam, the digeatant of albumin.
Th film is albuminous matter. The object of Pepsodent
is to dissolve it then to constantly combat it

A notice that appeared in the papers a few days 'ago stated shoes would drop
in h few months. This was contradicted the next day, and rightly so
These are the Facts
The factory cost for Spring delivery is as High as the retail price of today because these shoes
are made from the highest priced leather and-under the highest wages the world has ever known.
Owing to labor conditions, manufacturers of the United States are 700,000 pairs short in making
in the past 3 months.
