PRESIDENT WILSON ABOUT TO SET SAIL, j Stay in France Came to An End Sunday When the George Washington Left Brest. Paris, June 27. (By the Associated Press.)?The so; lrn of President j Wilson in Europe will come to -t? end tomorrow when he starts home"ward immediately after the signing of the peace treaty. All arrange- j ments for his departure have been j completed and the special presidenti- j al train will leave the Gare des Inat. Q SntnrHmj pwnino1 Tt will arrive at Brest on Sunday morn- j ing where the president will board j the steamship George Washington! which sails about noon. On his arrival in the United States President Wilson will go straight to "Washington to lay before congress; the results of the peace conference. J He will leave soon afterwards for an j extended tour of the country for the; purpose of explaining directly to the people all questions relating to the j twsscp and of rift- i tions convenant. i The president goes back to the j United States more than satisfied, j his friends say, with the net results j. of the conference and all things con-! sidered, it is his opinion that the conference has been a wonderful success. While it is regarded as a dis advantageous peace for Germany,! ,.yet against this it is held that Ger-; many committed a great wrong and quite naturally and inevitably must . / / make just reparation for that wrong. Liberty of Peoples. ] But outside of German results, the i conference is viewed in presidential ; -? i - * _ _ !%_ _ quarters as 11 Derating peoples wno ; never before had a chance of liberty, such as Poland, Jugo-Slovakia and 1 Czecho-Slovakia. Also the confer- 3 ence is credited with banding togeth- j er the people of the world to make ; the peace regime enduring. Other' 1 large results, it was pointed out, are 1 the giving of a charter1 to labor, re- 1 movinc restrictions on international intercourses and many other interna tional results which ean be summed [ up as "a colossal business such as the [ world never dreamed of before." L The peace treaty and the league of ^ B nations covenant should be ratified < p- ' without amendment, according to the : presidential view, as it is understood, for certain definite reasons, namely, i k- that if any one power seeks to make \ ft amendments, then the war will not ; ^^^be over until every one of the 21 [^^^nassociated nations learns the results,] kof the amendments. This can only < "be done thrutfeti processes of negotiation and itfis held that it would be i a hopeless process of delay in restoring peace. It is also held that the ef- i feet of the amendments, would be to ' peep the United States out of the ; peaty and: out of the league. B The question has arisen whether Rservations amount to amendment. ; presidential quarters are under^^J^ftod to hold that reservations, such I^^H^R^^rcoposed Root reservation to ^^^ ^^Lthe covenant are equiv^^H^^^^^H^^^^^B^feg^particularly ^^Mll ^^HHate peace^MIH^B^^^^^H ^^is characterized in thesM^^BH^H quarters as having the effect^^^H L lving the United States with Ger^l many and placing the country in a position of contempt that no nation ever suffered. It. is the president's ^ belief, according to reliable source, 4 that not more than a handful of people in America will approve such a resolution. Beneficial as Whole. a The length of the peace conference is regarded, it is said, as beneficial on the whole, as the long discussion brought about a fuller understanding among the nations. There is special pride in the fact that the views of the American experts usually prevailed, probably because the United States had no selfish in < terests involved in the difficult ques-1 N tions settled. It is also held that| sinister influences played comparatively little or no part in the results of the conference. Concerning the mandate of the W United States in Turkey, the presi' dent is known to hold that he had no right to make any promises and that -11.- i. 1. iJ I me mum ue cuuiu uu wets w picscut the subject to the people at home. One of the main reasons for the proposed American mandate in Constantinople, it is pointed out, is that it would keep Constantinople out of European politics and keep the Black Sea open for the world's commerce. Concerning Mexico and Costa Rcia rot being in. -the league of nations, the oresidential view is said to be! that the situation is of their- own J making and that it is necessary for; those governments-to* "find ' them-i i selves." Relative to the president's, 14 points, the view is taken that the treaty adheies 10 the points more, l closely than had been expected, o\vto the differences and eompiiea jtions which arose during the course of negotiations. i On the whole, presidential quar-; ters regard the signing of the treaty |as the end of a long job they are j glad to see finished, and President IWilson, it was said, starts back relying with confidence on approval of j the work by the people when misapprehensions have been cleared away and they have been made fullly j aware what the conference has accomplished. Besides signing the treaty and the protocol tomorrow, the president has made it known that he is readv to ! sign the treaty carrying out the arrangements whereby the United States and Great Britain will come to the assistance of France in case she is menaced by Germany, if the treaty can be prepared for signature , before his departure; otherwise he will authorize Secretary of State.

At a joint meeting of tke boards of Summerland and Newberry colleges at the Lutheran Publication Building yesterday, it was unanimously agreed to launch a campaign in the State to collect $150,000 for educational purposes only. The sepi 1 1 Ail j 11 11 arate ooaras 01 tne two colleges naa decided before that such a step was needed, but yesterday they definitely agreed to recommend this step to the South Carolina Lutheran Synod. The synod will be convened about August 1 and the campaign will probably be launched around November 1. The plans for this campaign will be perfected at another joint meeting in Newberry on July 9. As there are only 12,000 communicant members of the Lutheran Synod in South Carolina and $150,00ajs to be raised, the per capita ass< .nent is to be rather large, being about $12 for each member. However, the meeting was a very enthusiastic one, and the boards feel highly confident i-l i. i.1 ill j. ^1 cnat mey win come out even aDove the required amount. The purpose of the fund is for the endowment and equipment of Newberry and Summerland colleges, and is the largest educational proposition that the South Carolina Lutherans have ever undertaken. Other churches are also making campaigns at this time, but the peculiarity of this drive is that it is entirely educational. Dr. Georgtf B.
