KELLOGG WOULD
HAVE ILLS OF THE
WORLD TREATED
Senator Wants League to Pre
vent War and to Enforce
Peace
Washington, Dec. 5. —Creation of
a league of nations to maintain
peace—not a super-government to
j dominate and interfere with nations'
j internal affairs, but a world tribu
' nal for arbitration of international
disputes with enlightened public op
inion a largo factor in enforcing its
decrees was advocated by Senator
Kellogg of Minnesota. Republican,
in the Senr.t.e yesterday.
Senator Kellogg expressed regret
at what he characterized as the
lack of disposition of President
"Wilson to deal more frankly with
Ihe people and the Senate regard
ing his views on problems coming
before the peace conference.
Pointing out that a league of na
tions to stop all wars had been a
"favorite theme for discussion by
benevolent publicists and statesmen
for two thousand years," he said
its failure to dote need not be dis
couraging and that public sentiment
has advanced until an international
alliance for maintenance of peace
now may be considered feasible.
"I believe the time has come,"
he said, "to try to establish a league
to prevent war and to enforce peace,
which may not be entirely preven
tative, but, backed by a world pub
lic sentiment, will have a tremen
dous influence toward maintaining
just and equitable relations be
tween nations and preventing the
horrors of war.
"But I an> not in favor of an
Impracticable, I might say, an im
possible, scheme that I believe rests
in. the brain of the dreamer and
the womb of the far distant future.
Xo league of nations can succeed
unless it is originated in and sus
tained by an honest public senti
ment of the peoples involved and
unless the governments joining in
such league are responsive as the
people. Thes conditions exist today
to a greater extent than ever be
fore."
■Regarding President Wilson's ac
tion on peace questions, Senator
. Kellogg said:
"I deplore what seems to be the
disposition of the President not to
take the American people into his
confidence, especially that body ot
the supreme legislative power of
the nation, the co-ordinate treaty
making body, the United States Sen
ate. So far as possible we should
know his views on the difficult prob
lems which mtist be settled in Paris.
1 would have the world informed
us to the progress of the negotia
tions and the principal issues in
volved from time to time between
nations surrounding the council
table. It is only in this way that a
healthy public sentiment can be ex
pressed and a peace arrived at
Which shall meet the judgment of
the civilized world."
Turning to concrete plans for a
league of nations. Senator Kellogg
raid, unless Germany evolves a
government responsive to popular
will and with a people having ideals
and aspirations different from those
of the past regime, there must be
a league of nations to "see that
Germany is rendered powerless to
renew the contest."
Another important step Senator
Kellogg said, is abolition of the sys
tem of secret treaties and alliances.
The new treaties, he said, should
be "made in the open."
The Minnesota senator said he
was opposed to a league established
as "a world super-government with
legislatures and judicial tribunals."
No league, he asserted, should have
power to interfere with foreign
trade, tariff duties, commerce regu
lations, development or disposition
of national resources or other in
ternal affairs.
Senator Kellogg said lie believed
general sentiment favors a league
by treaty, providing not only medi
ation but binding signatory powers
to offer mediation to contending
nations, and establishing commis
sions for investigation.
Step Forward For
Women Is Proposed
Sydney, X. S. W. The attorney
general for New South Wales, D. It.
Hall, has introduced into the State
Parliament a bill entitled the Wo
men's Regal Status Bill, which lias
been greeted with approval liv pro
gressive women in Australia as it pro
poses to remove n number of restric
tions from the women of the "Mother
State," some of which have already
been removed from the women of
other states. If the bill is successful
it will mean that a woman will be en
aided:
la) To be elected or appointed as
n member of either of the Houses of
Parliament:
lb) To be elected as I.ord Mayor
or alderman of the Municipal Council
of Sydney: as mayor, president, alder
man, or councilor of any municipality
or shire under the laws relating to
local government:
(c) To t>e appointed a special mag
istrate having jurisdiction only In
children's courts, or a justice of the
peace;
(d) To be admitted and to prac
tice as a barrister or solicitor of the
Supreme Court of New South Wales,
or to practice as n conveyancer, any
law or usage to the contrary notwith
standing.
The bill is a notable step forward,
but If it passes, the last stronghold
of prejudice will still have to he
taken, as New South Wales women
will not, even then, have the right to
be judges, magistrates and jurors in
the higher courts.
HOG WITH FIVE FEET
Mountain Home, Arlc. Bennie
Dcarmore, son of Ree Dearmore, a
fi.rmqr, who lives west of this place,
says that he has a hog which he has
no trouble keeping track of. Jt makes
ii track different from any hog in
Baxter county. It is a five-footed hog,
and mgkes five tracks. The "extra
foot extends out just below the knee
of its right foreleg, and touches the
ground the same as the regular foot
on that leg. In other ways the nnl
tYial Is normal and large enough to
kill. None of the other pigs In the
litter in which it was born was de

NEGRO HELPED
IN WAR WORK,
SAYS HAINES
His Labor in IT.l T . S. Plants and
Shipyards Showed Atti
tude of the Race
Wasliington.—What the negro has
done on the battlefields of France to
win the war for America has been
told In many heroic stories from the
front. What he is doing in the
mines, shipyards and cotton fields at
home for the same purpose is less
spectacular, but none the less effec
tive.
Dr. George E. Haynes, director
of negro economics, Department of
Labor, thus describes some of the
efforts that are being made to pro
mote better relations between the
races in the Southern states, thereby
promoting the morale of the negro:
"There are three facts which have
been kept In mind In the efforts to
increase the morale and efficiency
of negro lubor for winning the war.
Urst, that the negro wage-earners
are ready to shoulder some of the
responsibility for the arduous work
on the farm and In the fuctory, and
when given a fair chance und sym
pathetic guidance In making the
labor program they will respond en
thusiastically; second, virtually all
employers of negro labor are white
employers, and many fellow-work
men are white workmen. Out of
the second fact develops racial mis
understandings, prejudice, antag
onisms, fears and suspicions. This
is the third fact of the situation.
"To meet these conditions the De
partment of Labor has held a num
ber of state conferences with repre- I
sentatives of negro wage-earners, of
white employers and, wherever pos
sible, of white workmen. At these
conference the problems of better
adjustment have been discussed and
plans of co-operative effort of white
and colored citizens for 100 per cent,
labor efficiency in war production
have been made. As a result, during
the last five months, negro workers'
advisory committees, both state
wide, by counties and in towns and
• J . ' '
DECEMBER 5, 1918.
cities, have been formed or are being
formed In six Southern states and
five Northern stuteß.
"For Instance, in Ohio, besides a
■state advisory committee, there are
local advisory committees in twelve
of the principal towns that have a
considerable negro population. In
Virginia committees have been
forihed in forty-six counties. Co-I
operative white pennons serve on
these committees or jointly with
them, representing the councils of
defense, the chambers of commerce
■ and the representatives of organized
labor. These affiliations vary, of
course, with local conditions.
Competent negro men who have
had experience dealing with negro j
wage-earners have been appointed j
us supervisors of negro econdmics in
| nine states to direct the work of
these co-operative negro workers'
| advisory committees and to increase
the morale and efficiency of negro
wage-earners.. These committees
have already done some very con.
structlve work in many localities. In
Jacksonville, Fla„ they have helped
to train colored women to take the
place of men in jobs declared nones
sential. In several places In Ohio
they have helped the United States
Government employment service re-
cruit women for war Industries. I*
a county In Georgia they advlsel
farmers about adjusting the price ot
cotton picking, so as to entice pick- *
era. In numbers of localities they;
have held mass meetings to inform
the colored people on war-labor
needs. Some state-wide campaigns
are now being undertaken along
| these lines. Large numbers of let
ters of upprova! of this work have
been from negroes and
from employers."
