PEOPLE MPfSri SAYS PRESIDENT Small and Technical Objections Not Timely. f Oakland, CaL, Sept. 18.,?President Wilson told an audience here that the people had been "singularly and, . I sometimes fear, deliberately mis-; led," as to the contents of the peace : treaty. In an address interrupted many i times by cheers he said that any 1 man who discussed the treatj on the 1 tesis of small and technical objecH tions would in the end be ^over-j whelmed" by public opinion. ,j Mr. Wilson suoke before a crowd which jammed the auditorium here with its seating capacity of 13,000. Many others stood ii* the aisles and in the rear of the galleries. For the first time during his trip , the president was introduced by a : .woman, Dr. Aurelia H. Reinhardt, t I president of Mills college of Oak-! r land, presenting him as one to whom i the international affairs of the coun-) try might be safely entrusted. When 1 ^ he rose to speak some one shouted,. "Are we with him?" and many shout- j f ed in chorus, "Yes." For the second time during his j trip Wilson, whose purpose was not' to serve governments but "to serve peoples," all the peoples of the | world, he declared, at last had seen a | vision of liberty and had drawn up a ! treaty for the peoples "and the fort- j unes of children everywhere." It. was for the benefit of those of future fenerations, he asserted, that the docment had been formulated. "The characteristic" of the tfreaty, J asserted Mr. Wilson, was that "it j gives liberty to peoples who ,<^iever j could have won it for themselves." j Had the world' not already been rent by the great war, he said, the world j would have been amazed that such a j thing was possible. He -declared it j meant the end of the dreams of every imperialistic government , in ' the j , j wvnu. . For one thing, continued the pres, i<|pnt, the treaty attempted to internationalize all of the great water-ways of Europe. He said that in effect it proposes to "cut out" every influence of national privilege., i Discussing the labor section of the * treaty, he declared there would be set up a new standard of labor for the whole world, under which laborers would be "regarded as human." In that connection He mentioned \ the seamen's act passed by congress a few years ago. The international labor conference to be held in wasnmgion iie$.c munui was recalled by the president and he was cheered when he added: " "We are waiting to learn from the senate of the United States whether "? ? we can attend it or not." In short, said the president, the jtreaty provided an "organization of liberty and mercy" for the world.4 t Referring to Germany's temporary exclusion from the league of nations, the' president said if the autocratic German government were revived with a Hohenzollern on the throne, Germany forever would be excluded Jrom the league and from respect, able society. / ",T" - TT * ??A fl,a WnVionrrtl " 1 ne xiapsuuiga auu vu& xaVUv..... lerns are permanently out of business," added Mr. Wilson, while the crowd cheered again. There were more cheers .when he referred to the withdrawal feature of the league covenant and said that should the United States go into the league "with a seat near the door," it would be invited to take a front seat immediately. Turning to the Arbitration and discussion features of the covenant, the president said it invited all the nations to lay any greivance before the nf hnmanitv befftre sroing to j JM.XJT ? _ war. "If you think you have a friend j * viho is a fool," he added, "encourage him to hire a hall." Sone one in the gallery shouted: "Oh you Hiram Johnson," and the crowd laughed and cheered. America foremost of all nations, said the president, declared it as one of the principles on which she entered the war that theie should be no ' more wars.

CANVASS FOR fcUND ; j Small Group Subscribe $40,000 As Starter?For Newberry and Summerland Colleges. The State. j The campaign by Lutherans of the.1 State for $300,000 for Newberry and Summerland colleges was definitely. launched yesterday noon at a meet-1 ing of members of the boards of j trustees of the two institutions and; the central campaign committee at j Ebenezer Lutheran church in Colum-; bia. Although a number of trustees and a large portion of the members i of the committee were absent, $40,-; 000 was raised, much of this being in! cash subscriptions and Liberty bonds. Fifteen subscriptions ranging from $1,000 to $5,000 were made, with, others ranging from $100 to $500.1 A "flying squadron" will go to Char-1 leston today to make a canvass of a j number of prominent Lutherans j there. Strenuous effort will be made I , to procure as much as possible of the j desired amount in large subscriptions j , before the campaign starts definitely j I throughout the State October 19. It will conclude October 31. The Rev. O. H. Pancoke of New ^ York, who has directed a number of: campaigns for the Lutheran denomi-l, nation throughout the country, came J | to Columbia yesterday and outlined the campaign for the leaders. He placed much emphasis on just what ' obstacles will have to be encountered! and gave many helpful suggestions! as to organization and leadership. Dr. George B. Cromer, who was; president of Newberry college 15. years, presided at yesterday's meet-} ing and delivered a forceful and ef-i fective speech. It would be better j not to undertake the campaign than to start and not procure the fullj amount. Failure would have a ais- j astrous influence on the church and ! schooi extensions in the State for; years to come. He was not sure that | the church woulci disintegrate if the colleges were to die, but the colleges! are the connecting link between the j church and the synod, and the synod j would surely break up without the! institutions. President S. J. Derrick of Newberry college also brought an inspiring message. He told of the good work Newberry college had accom pushed ana gave some mbercsbiiig t figures as to the manner in which a j large number of the alumni are employed. Of 650 graduates from the school; 79 are in the ministry, 44 are lawyers, 49 physicians, 52 farmers, 125 teachers, 175 business men, 41 i State or federal officials, nine journalists, nine dentists, six druggists. The Rev. H. A. McCullough, D. D., of Columbia, who is chairman of the | central committee, said each day he | was more and more encouraged with j the prospects for the success of the j drive, and was convinced that $300,- j F&ii 000 would be raised. He explained j Gre< the organization which had been ef- ! Geo fected, which is closely correlated | Hor throughout the State from the central \ $351 committee down to the individual Lee congregation. . $40< ' $501 ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL $601 CAMPAIGN APPORTIONED j 000 $101 "Columbia, Sept. 18.?South Caro- Jiam lina's apportionment of $30,000 in A the Roosevelt memorial campaign has eacl been apportioned among the forty- set 1 six counties of the State.
