Hitchcock Makes Strong Speech In Defense of it. Means Much to America. ' Declaring the real purpose of*the foreign relations committee majority in amending the peace treaty was to kill the treaty entirely, ( and that such a course would suicidal to the Unlt- ed States, Senator Hitchcock, of Ne braska, Democrat leader,'’asserted In a senate speeech Wednesday that the majority of the senators never would accept any of the committee changes. “By a vote of nine to eight,” said Senator Hitchcock, “the committee on forejfn relations is to bring squarely before the senate the question of de feating the pending treaty. Suppose the senate should vote In favor of the Shantung amendment or any other, what would happen? "Either the president would refuse to go further with the treaty, or he would submit the amendment to the nations associated with • the United States. Does anyone believe they would accept it?

Now, he suddenly changes front “What has become of the high pro fessions o£ last year?

EAST CAROLINA LUMBER CO. NEW BERN, N. C. 30 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN FITTING GLASSES tung, would accep't the Shantung amendment? Does anyone think that France, also under a pledge to Japan, would ratify this change? Does any one suppose that Japan herself would submit to this humiliation before the eyes of the world? “I cannot conceive of any intelli gent and candid man who would as sume such a thing as a possibility. We would be met by an instant refusal to accept the amendment, and then where would the United States find itself in this international settlement? We would find ourselves out in the cold, isolated from the rest of the world. The work of ratifying the treaty wbuld proceed without us. “The treaty provides that when three nations in addition to Germany have signed, it shall go Into effect. It is easy to see the enormous benefits which Great Britain and France will derive from this treaty. They will not take any chances. It is preposterous to suppose that Japan will delay its ratification. The result is beyond all question. “What, then, will the United States do? Some say that congress can pass a joint resolution declaring a state of peace with Germany. Others say the United States can negotiate A^aeoarate and independent treaty. Those who talk this way evidently have no conception of the enormous benefits which the United States de rives from this treaty. “In article 23, Germany Is compell ed to accept full responsibility for the damages caused by the war. Does any one think if <we undertook to ne gotiate a separate treaty with Ger many, Germany would make any such concessions to the United States? Ger many might say she had never de- we adopt a policy of quit and scut tle. It is proposed that we repudiate our obligations and like cravens leave them to be performed by the nations lately associated with us. “Was there ever, a more Insane In ternational policy proposed? In the mixture of poltroonery and folly it is difficult to see which predominates. The senator from Pennsylvania goes the limit. He not only proposes that we desert our friends and abandon our obligations, but he suggests that we release Germahy from alj promises of indemnities and reparations. Why not go further and propose that we compensate Germany That would be a still stronger appeal to German sen timent. “He says In so mhny words, slaugh ter the treaty, desert our friends, abandon our obligations and yield to Germany. I have full faith that when this treaty is finally released from cold storage It will in thF senate re ceive different treatment. Here, un questionably, there is an overwhelm ing majority who desire to finish the work undertaken when we entered the war. Here will be found a safe ma jority for a peace settlement. “I have spoken of the treaty as a whole. But the league of nations fea- ture particularly has been - persistent^ ly and unreasonably attacked in this chamber. Those who conjure up these possible disadvantages seem to ignore altogether the enormous advantages of organizing the world for peace. “They make mountains out of mole hills In reviewing difficulties of the league plan. They ire suspicious that while it may benefit every other na tion on earth, it Is so devised as to bring disaster to the United States.

Suppose Germany points to the treaties of 1799 amd 1828 under which we agree to respect the private property of German nationals in the United States. “This treaty creates a commission called the reparations commission. Unquestionably it will be the most powerful international body ever cre ated. It receives fromv Germany all reparations paid and distributes, them to the various nations. Does anyone think under the circumstances the United States can afford not to have a represeentative on the reparations commission? "To my mind it would be suicidal to throw away teh advantages and benefits provided in this treaty. It would be disastrous, commercially and financially. “Defeat of the treaty by means- of proposed amendments to it is the real program and hope of the majority of the committed on foreign relations.

I never knew a time when the white people If the South, not only the leading white people, but the aver age white man, was more anxious than at present to be absolutely fair and Just to the negro—to see to it that the colored race in the South had better school facilities, better rail- road accommodations and adequate protectiin under the law. This is. also true of the North. “There was never a time when the Sk>uth and the North, too, saw more clearly the value of the negro as an economic factor In indust^rlal opera- chagrined and humiliated at the awful crime of lynching than they do today, and I never knew a time when they were more determined to put down mob rule, whether aimed at black or white, than now.

The ordinary circle is but a half circle ( vj ). In making a sharp turn bolsters often run to the end of the track and become “derailed.” Thornhills cannot do this because their track is a circle ( O ). *v , Others comment on the fact that in spite of tre mendous overloads, Thornhill axles never break. The reason for this is plain. They use tough highland hickory—reinforced by a steel truss bar that extendi the full length of the axle. Still others comment that the gears never get out of line. This unusual feature is due to one of their workmen’s inventions. He designed a malle able front hound plate—bolted to the gears at eight points. It’s literally a jacket of iron that holds gears in line and insures light running for life. From hilly sections come reports that the old trouble of broken king bolts is unknown among owners of Thornhill wagons. This because of A cup and saucer arrangement on the bolster that relieves the king bolt of strain. To others the amazing feature is the long life of Thornhill beds—due to their location which gives them the pick of the yearly cutting of wood and due* in part* to the fact that they paint with pure lead and linseed oil despite its high Thousands of owners have found in ThomhiBs unusual strength where they are accustomed to weakness.
