Sinnott's Masterly Address
On the Campaign Issue
lie League of Natrons
(Continued Frost Yesterday)
, That wu President Wilson's con
tribmtlM, Hd I (understand, Bit
only contribution, to tht league.'
Wfcat doee that article mean? Hera
la a aoelma obligation by which the
aaeafcers themselves make an Indt
vldual engageaftat to go to the as-
alttaaoe of every member of the
legaue Ib case of external aggression.
They also agree to respect and pre
serve the territorial, Integrity of ex-
istlng political Independence, what
doe that mean?
I am sot here to begrudge Eng
land what she hs secured In this
treaty. I admire her atateman
ship that fought for what they con
sidered wore England's rights. I ad
mire the part that England hat
played In the war. I would also llko
to be In the position to euloglxo somo
American statemaa who was over
there and fought a good fight for
American rights and American In
teres. What doe England get out of
the treaty. She gets a territory more
than 1-3 the site of the United.
States; IS times" the site of Oregon";
a territory larger than all the west
ers states with the addition of Kan
sas, Oklahoma aad Texas; and un
der hta treaty, aader article 10, we
are compelled to go to her assist
aace la case any other country en
i gages la warfare with her, disres
pecting her Independence or commit
ting aa act of agression.
And aa I aald before, we would
have to go to the assistance of Ja
pan, Ib case China endeavored to
wrest hack her territory.
Therefore, the senate of the United
States reserves the light In the Con
gress of the United States, not In
one man alone, to aty whether or
not our 'armlet and our navies shall
be sent abroad to protect the terri
torial Integrity of any member of the
league of aatloaa la case of war.
President Wilson saya this article,
article 10, It the very heart of
the league of nations, and we are
told that although the positive lang
uage of this article is that we are
to respect and preserve the territor
ial Integrity of the members of the
league, still there Is not a binding
legal obligation to do so, because the
power of declaring war rests In con
gress. Ton cannot mako 'a treaty
that is binding on our congress.
The congress of the United Statea
may Ignore-every treaty that has ever
been entered Into, but they are
not going to do that. To do so would
be to dishonor our nation, to vio
late our obligation. If 'we enter Into
any treaty, wo are going to fulfill
the obligations Imposed upon us In
that treaty.
President Wilson says that only a
moral obligation Is Imposed In this
article 10. A moral obligation Is,
of course, he saya superior to any
legal obligation, and I may say, has
greater binding force there also
remains the, right to exercise Judg
ment at to whether the treaty blnda
ut to do that thing.
Senator Knox cited a specific vio
lation of article 10, and asked Pres
ident Wilson what would be our le
gal obligation, whether we would
be bound to participate In the event
of war. "No air." replied the presi
dent, "but we would be under a com
pelling moral obligation superior to
legal obligation." And that com
pelling obligation could be imposed
upon ns by the vote of ono man, our
representative In the league of na
tions. Bo we have the reeervatlon which
I have stated, thst the armies and
navies of the United Statea. your

THE WONDER WASHER lives up to its name all
the time. It will wash a tub full of clothes with a
minimum of effort in three minutes.
THE WONDER WASHER will wash lace curtains
in a few seconds without the slightest injury, or
without the necessity of placing the curtains in
a sack.
THE WONDER WASHER will wash comforts,
blankets, sheets, table clothes any fabrics that
can be washed in any machine and do it in less
than half the time. The washing will be clean and
all effort is reduced to a minimum.
THE WONDER WASHER will save any housewife
money, for with this machine it is not necessary
to use lye or washing compounds. Consider this
saving alone and the longer life the WONDER
WASHER means to even very delicate linens am
laces the machine soon pays for itself.
NO NEED TO BOIL CLOTHES WHEN
THE WONDER WASHER IS USED
By following the simple directions included with
all WONDER WASHERS, any housewife will find
X that clothes are washed clean and thoroughly with-
m 'i i Al a, 1 a1 M l
uiu uuuuig, wiinuui. weakening uie launu in any way.
The compactness and neat appearance of the
WONDER WASHER is a source of delight to the
housewife who cares'. No flywheel to lift, no gears to
oil and when not in use, .the tub and stool can be
nested together, placed under a table, hung up on
the wall or stored away. It holds 16 gallons of water,
weighs 28 pounds, any child can carry it around, or
do the washing, it is a WONDER.
We will be pleased to have you call and let us
show you how it is constructed, materials used, and
many other good points.
We also have the WONDER operated by elec
; 'tricity and gasoline engine, should you so desire.
I Evans, Balin & Lucas jj
boys, should not be tent to war un
til tho representatives that you
elected, your senators and repre
sentatives, determined that war wat
necessary.
There are today some 19 or IS
wars being waked Ib. Europe; and
the league1 of nations bow haa 19
member.
. Earl dray says that the league of
nations It Ineffective bocaute the po
tent voice ,of tho United SUtea ir
mjaslag. I say, not the potent voice
of the United States but the Amer
Icaa moneys aad the boys, your
children, are misting from the
European warfare. v
It would be aa eaay matter to teat
out thla league of nations, and the
sentiment throughout the country In
regard to It. If this toaguo of na
tions were in operation our boys
would bo over In Russia, and over
In Poland, trying to settle their af
fairs. Dut the president can have
a real tost. Let him call congress
together, and let htm ask congress
tor troops to send over to Poland.
What would be your response? That
would be one scheme for putting the
league of nations In operation. You
would hoar a roar of protest and
objections that would shake tho
very pillars of tho country. Every
member of congress would havo from
a hundred to a thousand telegram
of protest against sending our boyt
to Europe, to foreign lands.
Thord Is another reason why tho
senate put In this reservation that
tho army and navy of tho United
States could only set In motion by
act of congress.
That reason la this; Thr mem
bers of the leaguo of nations under
take to respect and preserve against
external aggression, etc. It Is not
now necesatry for a declaration,
which only congress caa make, to
tet Ib motion our armlet aad navies.
Who tet them Ib motion In Mexico?
Who teat the navy to Vera Crut?
At commander In chief of the army
and nevy o fthe United States, by
virtue of this treaty which would
become the supreme law of the land,
the president would havo tho right to
send our armies and our navy to
Europe, and In Its reservation the
senate of the United States has en
deavored to curb and to control that
right.
In reservation 4, the United States
reserves tho right to Itsolf exclusive
ly to decide what questions nro with
in Its domestic Jurisdiction. What
does that mean? There Is n provision
In tho leaguo of nations which pro
vides, that In caso of dispute If It
Is found by the council that the
question arises out of a matter which

THE railroads wefe partly
responsible. But it wasn't
until the automobile reached
its present state of develop
ment that te old barriers
against travel were finally
broken down.
More people own auto
mobiles today than ever
thought of owning a horse
and buggy in the old days.
That's because the cost of
motoring has been brought
within reach cf the average
.citizen's pockctbook.
We look upon it as part of
our job to keep it there. If
it weren't for the trade of
the man 'with the medium
priced car there wouldn't be
much in this tire business for
us.
Ill
The less a man has to
spend on motoring, the more
important it is that his tires
should be of first quality.
Any tire is not1 good enough
for the small car owner. He
wants a tire that will give him
just1 as much for his money
in the small size as the big
car man gets for his money
in the large size.
IV
In thinking over what kind
of tires' we would represent
in this community we tried
to put ouraelvea in the
place of the car owner. And
we believe we hit it exactly
when we selected U. S.
Tires.
