A LITTLE MORE LIGHT PLEASE
O KVKItAIj days a,?o we re(iiesled an explanation from
the President, re?ardiii? his precise reasons for op
posing the compromise, reservations. The first of the week
his reasons for opposin? reservations to Article Ten were
?iven in a letter to Senator Hitchcock. The promptness
of the response is almost enibaiTassin?!
Like till of Hie .President's pronouncements, this roni
liiunicalion was a model of literary style, lofty feel in?, and
flawless diction l.ul after a careful iiernsiil we cohI'ck's
still to a certain doubt.
On the assertion that Article Ten is the heart of the
covenant we ilTcc. but we can find no e vi ihi ii.-itimi in 1 1
letter as to just why the proposed reservation destroys the
article.
As we understand the reserval ion. that is (lie last one
wo saw, there is lU'obahlv another one now. it siinnlv
states in effect, that the United Slates will not join in op
posin? external a?ressioii attainst a leatnte member either
).v armed force or hvthovcolt. unless such action is .-in-
proved by congress.
( onsiderin? the gravity of such action, and the far
eachin? conscmiciiccs involved. comrressLonal satielion
would seetti to he merelv a matter of course. .In' fact, in
Hie same letter, the President says there can be no objec
tions to explainiu? a?ain what our constitutional methods
are and that con?rcss alone can declare war or determine
the cause or occasions for war.
lTsin? armed forces in war. and declarine- a bovcott we
should suppose, would be considered an occasion for war.
"The enemies of Ihe lca?ue of nations have bv evcrv
true instinct centered their efforts atrainst. Article Ten for
it is undoubtedly the Inundation of the whole structure ''
Quite Irue. As is evcrvlhin? the President savs about the
old onler .and militarism and what we foti?lit for.
Hut we repeal, we fail to see wherein this reservation
destroys the article. If it does destroy if. we are a?ainsl
it. Hut we find nolhin? iu the President's letter, 'which
establishes the tact.
We don't be'ieve we are alone in this. There must he
others ouitallv stuiut who won t ike to know Imw lln-
trlicle. as modified, would nullifv the treat v. I'mhalilv
our former success has ?one to our head, bttl we are ?oin?
io ask for just one little note of further illumination on
the subject.
We 'thank vou!
FORGET ABOUT A RECALL.
A Ix'KCAI.L is a nasty thin? under Ihe best circinu-f-
stances, t is part icitlarly nasty in a small cotniuu
nily Jile this, where Ihe pressin? need is civic unity de
voled to constructive and productive ends.
We have been asked to support a recall a?ainst the
school board ami have refused because we believe it would
be a bad thin? for the schools anil a bad thin? for the com
munity. We don't believe conditions have conic to such a
Hie onlv rcniedv is to phuiL'c the cilv into a bitter

mutual accommodation, ami our appeal is for all public
spirited cit izeits to unite in at la in in? such ?round.
Toward that end concessions must he made by both
sides-. The welfare of the schools is the supreme issue, ami

Phi That Back of Mine!
It is many a woman's com
' plaint for it seems as though it
would break, feet swell too
sometimes and head buzzes.
,This is often due to the uric aoid
which accumulates in the sys
tem. Naturally T when- the' kid
neys are deranged the blood
is filled with poisonous wast
matter, which settles in the
feet, ankles and wrists; or tinder
the eyes in bag-like formations.
Often there is pain in back or limbs. ....
As a remedy for those easily reoognized symptoms of in
flammation caused by uric acid as scalding urine, backache and
frequent urination, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric acid
in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is
simply wonderful how quickly Dr. Pierce's Anuric acts; when you
take thi. new kidney remedy of Dr. Pierce's the pains and stiffness
rapidly disappear, for "Anuric" (anti-uric-acid) is 'many times more
potent than lithia and often eliminates uric acid as hot water melt
sugar, thus removing rheumatism and lumbago.
San Francisco, Calif. "I have used Dr. Pierce's remedies in my
family for fifteon years and have found on every occasion that they
gave satisfactory results. I have recommended them to dozens of
relatives and friends, and each one praised them very highly. Re
' cently I was troubled with my kidneys and my back constantly
pained mo. I took three packages of Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets
which removed all pain and cleared up conditions. I advise every
one to give Dr. Pierce's remedies a fair trial."
