By one of those queer iromic turns it remained for Senator Root, the wisest politician of them all, to show his party in the Senate just what fools they had been making of themselves. The great “Tre- aty leak” to the “Wall Street Interests’ had blown up and fizzled out under his simple explanation of his possession of a copy of the famous document and the dis. covery that they could be had for the asking. The net result was that the treaty bad been spread upon the pages of the Congressional Record. Then en- suesl the following colloquy Senator Brandegee : "Do you think any damage has been done to the negotiations bv the publication of the treaty text in the Congressioual Re- cord?” Mr. Root paused for a mo- ment and a whimsical smile played over his face. At last he replied : **None, I would say. except with. drawing the attention of the Senate from the very serious questions which are awaiting its actions. © Senators and spectators alike howled with laugh. ter, ‘Can you think of anythin more serious than this treaty? "ask Senator Borah, when the gale had subsided. “I cannot.” **But Mr, Root can think of something more serious than this investigation,” interjected Senator Williams amid more merri- ment, ‘I hope the senator will not re. flect upon the dignity of this proceed- ing,” remarked tor Swanson with mock seriousness, Mr. Root summed up the whole thing in a sentence: The Senate had with- drawn its attention from the serious sub- jects the country expected it to consider to make a fool of itself, He put a plug in the “leak.” Farmers for World League. One hundred and ninety-three farm organizations, local and national, have already passed resolutions favoring the participation of the United States in a League to Enforce Peace, or League of Nations, as it is familiarly known. If the U. S. Senate tries to block the en- dorsement of the League it will be up against a solid front of farmer endorsc- ment, If our farm organization has not yet gone on record with a resolution of en- dorsement it should do so at once, We cannot let it be said that the farm buys have fought in vain. They have done their part well. Let us finish the job by a League of Nations, so we will not have to face another great war. If this is not done the next war will be on such a scale that this one will be overshadow- ed, asa A Senator Lodge says he deprecates the discussion of the League of Nations as a partisan issue, He merely wanted it to be a Republican issue; A A AA A.

J. — at New Telephone Rates Local Service Rates: The costs of telephone operation have been rising steadily dur- ing the past few years. And now, despite the fact that ever possible economy has been introduced, a point has been reached phone revenues in Pennsylvania are not sufficient to meet expenses where tele- and to provide a reasonable return upon the investment. The Company prepared and submitted to the United States Tel- egraph and Telephone Administration a revised schedule of rates for local service in Pennsylvania which, after careful consideration, was approved by the Federal June 16, 1919, iw 43 Authorities and will become effective Accordingly, all rates for local telephone service in Pennsyl- vania (except local messages originating at public telephones) will be increased 20 per cent. June 16, 1919, Toll Service Rates On January 21, 1919, new schedules of toll and long rates were established throughout the country by order of master General. The application of these schedules to messages orig- inating and terminating within Pennsylvania was set aside on Janu- ary 29, 1919, by order of a Pennsylvania Court. The Supreme Court of the United States, on June 2, confirmed the authority of the Postmaster General to regulate all telephone rates. 1919, 18- Consequently the Pennsylvania Court on June 11, solved its injunction of January 29, 1919, The new rates, therefore, will be applied to all toll and distance messages from and after May 21, 1919, the beginning of the current toll billing period. long All telephone directories issued since Jan- uary 1 contain the new schedules and an explanation of them. Please consult the front pages of your directory so that you may be familiar with the various classes of toll service that we offer.
