The Hague Tribunal ai to render Ita
jutt ducreoa allhar acceptable or en
forceable. It Is not uncommon for the
advocates of tho league of Versailles
to contrast unfavorably The lleguo Trie-anal
upon the ground that tho
tribunal 'lacka teeth.' Very well, let'a
put teeth into It. If In the failed
League of Versailles there can be
found machinery which the tribunal
eaa uie properly and advantageously,
by all means let It bo impropriated. I
would even go further, I would take
and combine all that la good and ex
da all that le bad from both organ
liatlons. Thle itatement la broad
enough to Include the euggeitlon that
If the league, which haa heretofore
riveted our consideration! and appro-
benslona, haa boon eo entwined and
Interwoven Into Uie peace of Europe,
that Ita good muit be preserved In or
der to atablllto the peaco of that con
tinent, then It can he amended or re
vised so that wo may still have a rem
nant of world aspirations In 19(8 budd
ed Into tho world's blghsst conception
of helpful cooperation In the ultimate
realisation.
"I bulleve humanity would welcome
the creation of an International asso
ciation for confererce and a world
court whoso verdicts upon Justifiable
Questions this country In common with
all nations .would bo both willing and
able to uphold. The decision of such
a court or the recommendstlons of
auch a conferwnoe could bn accepted
without sacrificing on our part or ask
ing any other power to sacrifice one
Iota of Ita nationality.
The Democratic nomine baa spok
en about America abandoning her as
sociates In war and deserting the allied
nations In establishing the League of
Versailles. I do not think It longer
neoessary to cballeage that statement
or pass further opinion upon the un
fortunate league. It haa already been
abandoned by Europe, which bad gone
so far aa to accept It by formal agree
ment In treaty. On this subject, we
an fully Informed at first hand. Only
the other day the British Premlor said
unreaeatfully that the essential co
operation of America might Involve
'soma change at any rate In the form
of the covenant,' tad he added, with
characteristic outspokenness, 'It Is
quits possible It might be a change for
tba better.7
"Listen further to the wise and far
seeing former British Ambassador,
who was not permitted to prosont his
credentials to our executive.
"As long,' said Viscount dray,
hardly u month ago, 'as long as the
richest, most powerful, tho greatest
both for population and territory, of
the civilised countrlea of tho world
stands outsldu the Leaguo, tho League
will be unnblo to fulfill Ita destiny.'
To put It In quite plain terms, tho
Americans must be told that If they
will only Join tho league thoy can
pructtcalty name their own torms. Un
doubtedly that Is tho fact, I ask, Is
there any good reason why we should
not avallsblo ouruolvoB of this prlvl
jrgof I do not mean In any arrogant
or solQsh way, but simply as a matter
of ralrnoss and right to our own peo
ple, tfurqly It la becoming and a duty
as well, to sftfoguurd our own people,
slnco It Is we who aro tho main con
tributor, while asking nothing for our
selves except to participate In a con
tribution to the promotion of World
'peace'.
I "Viscount Oray continues, The
Americans ahould bo Intrusted with
the taak of drafting a reconstruction
scheme.' Than hb suggests further
that 'a committee of tho Benato w
must nover forget tho Seuate'e rights
and duties In regard to foreign affaire
being reinforced by the members of
tho House of Representatives, and alao
by nominees of the President, and su
preme courtcould draw up sugges
tions for tho reconstruction of the
League, which would bo consonant
with tho feellnga not of oue, but of all
parties In America.'
"Frankly I vuluo that suggestion
very hlchly, hocauso It la pVoffored ob
viously In a holpful and friendly spirit
and reveals an Important Old World
oululou ou the necessity of amendment,
revision or reconstruction. It com pre

"In view of the simple fact that the

LOW NTEREST

"No more radical measure was
ovor on tho ballot In Oregon than tho
proposed hill to limit Interest rates In
Oregon to G per cent. Its result
would bo ruin for tho stato from Im
pairment of credit and dearth of
money to loan both from local cnpltal
and outsldo capital. In effect this
proposed bill prohibits charging a
rate of Interest In excess of C per
cent," said n local man, who Is well
posted on financial matters In Ore
gon.
'Tour per cent would bo tho legal

can bo depended upon to do so In this
Instance,
"In tho ovent this bill should be

of destroying tho borrowing power of

every ono of your frlenda and neigh
