WILSON INVADES HOUSEJF FOES CARRIEB HIB BATTLE FOR LEAGUE OF NATIONB INTO HOME OF KIB ENEMIES. GIVES COST OF GREAT WAR llnforma Th*m of Lives and Treasure Poured Out to Save Civilization. j (By Mt. Clemens Mews Bureau) Aboard President Wilson's Special drain —Carrying ble war against thoee who oppose tbe adoption by tbe Uni ted States of the peace treaty and the covenant of tbe League of Nations in to their households, President Wilson Hast week invaded California. And there, where the question on which league opponents have ham mered the hardest, that of Shan Tung— Is of meet interest, tbe president found (the same enthusiasm among the peo ple for peace and for insurance against future wars. The people want ithe long controversy ended. They want this country to be able to again turn Its undivided attention to social, economic and Industrial development. Their leaders may not feel this way, ibut judging from the expressions which met the president on every side. The leaders have overstepped the limits of the peoples patience hi their stubborn determination to force a change in the great document. Must Take This League. “We must take this League of Na tions," said the president, “for there is no way In which another can be -obtained without compelling recon, isideratlon by the powera And it would sit very 111 upon my stomach to take It back to Germany for considera tion." “All over the world people are look ing to us with confidence our rivals along with the weaker nations. I pray God that the gentlemen who are de laying this thing may presently see '/ In a different light.” Germany, the president declared, i, taking new courage from our delay ratifying the treaty and her newf* papers and public men were again be coming arrogantly out-spoken. Deeply Impressive were the figures of the cost of the late war, in lives and dollars. It was the first time that the official statistics have been made publio and the tremendous totals shocked the president's audlenoes. Shows Cost of World War. "The war,” said President Wilson, eoat GrCat Britain and and her Do mains $38,000,000,000; PYance $26,000,. 000,000; the United States $22,000,- 000,000; Rußeia $18,000,000,000; Italy $13,000,000,000 and a total, including the expenditures of Japan, Belgium and other small countries, of $123,000,- 000,000. “It cost the Central Powers as fol lows: Germany $39,000,000,000; Aus tria-Hungary, $21,000,000,000; Turkey and Bulgaria $3,000,000,000. “The United States,” the president said, "spent one million dollars an hour night and day for two yeare in its struggle to save civilization. All this, however, fades into insigni ficance when the deaths by battle are considered, declared the president. Russia gave 1,- 700,000 men; Germany 1,600,000; Trance 1,380,000; Great Britain 900,- 000; Italy 364,000; the United States 60,300. In all, almost 7,600,000 men perished in the great struggle, or 1,600,000 more men than died in all of the wars of the previous 100 years. Bhould Remember Recent Horrors. “These are terrible facts, and we ought never to forget them. We went Into this war to do a thing that was fundamental for the world and what I have come out on this Journey for is to determine whether the country has forgotten or not. I have found out. The country has not forgotten and It will never permit any who stands In the way of the fulfillment of our great pledges, ever to forget the sop rowful day he made the attempt." Arbitration and discussion, the pres ident pointed out, must replace force of arms in the settlement of world controversies. Constantly he dwells upon the fact that all the nations in the League agree to do one of two things, first to submit their differences to arbitrable®, in which case they agree to abide by the decision ren dered, or, if unwilling to arbitrate, to have their case discussed by the Coum cil of the League, in which case stx months Is granted for discussion. Three months must elapse following the result of this last step in arbitra tion before the nation concerned can declare war. Holds Out Hope For Ireland. The president took advantage of questions propounded by the San Fran cisco Labor Council to give the lnfep ence that he believes Ireland can bring her case before the League of Nations for settlement when the League is actually in existence. Shan Tung, he declared, will be re turned to China. Japan, he said, had given her solemn pledge to that effect. And with the League of Nations in force, said the president, we can, if occasion arises, stand forth and say, “This shall be done.” NO ROOM FOR THE PESSI MIST IN THE SOUTH. From the Manufacturers Re cord, Baltimore, Md., A prominent business man of Baltimore, who has been on a trip through the South, in a letter from Jacksonville to the Manufac turers Record says: In many of the places 1 have visited building operations are at a standstill in anticipation of low er costs of labor and material. These people need to be waked up. “Everywhere l go 1 learn that there is an acute shortage of homes—in some instances 3000 homes could he used to advantage. In some places 1 have visited the hotels are filled with men of af fairs who are compelled to remain there until they hear of a house or apartment they can secure for their families. “In Atlanta there seems to be a sentiment in favor of going ahead, and already building operations are beginning in a substantial way, but other communities are asleep at the swich. In making in quiry in Jacksonville this same condition prevails of increased rentals and very few homes to be secured. In Birmingham they are doing some building, but not near ly enough to cope with the situa tion. I was told of one realty com pany in that city which is erect ing 25 houses, and before their completion the greater number have been sold. “Business conditions since the war are improving, and the great est optimsm prevails. The man who is not willing to go ahead now will soon he relegated to the rear by the advancing business in terests. The croaker or eomplain er is now out of his element. “In talking with a representa tive of the General Electric To. he tells me the company has done more business since January than they did during war times the whole of last year. He says the present industrials in the State of Florida are increasing their units of power in order to be ready for the increased volume of business ATTENTION BUYERS 10-room house with electric lights, city water; bath rooms up staris and down; corner lot; good barn; close in ; fine for residence or for a boarding bouse, $4,500.00. 4-room house and large lot in Russell; small barn, go ing for $1,150.00. 0 room house and corner lot on New Street, city water and barn selling for $2250.

The big corporate interests are now enabled to find a ready market for their bonds for development purposes. He also told me of negotations with three big interests in Florida wjho in tend to start phosphate factories on a big scale. “The retail stores, furniture houses, etc., are preparing for big business. In talking with a Balti more man who was in Macon and who represents five large furni ture factories, he told me he had sold $61,000 worth of furniture in a week’s time, and since leav ing Baltimore up to present time had sold more than he sold all of last year; so it looks likethis coun try will soon blossom like the rose.” Bteam Against Sails. Modern naval development may be ■aid to have begun with tbe rapid In crease in the size of ships which took place at the close of the fifteenth cen tury; and mediaeval history finally closed with the battle of Lepanto In 1571, the last great action in which rowing galleys played an Important part. From this time the sail-pro pelled man-of-war was gradually im proved until early In the nineteenth century, when sails began to give way to steam. A LEOPARD CAM CHAIM SPOTS Mr. Dodson, the “Liver Tone” Man, Tells the Treachery of Calomel. Calomel loees you a day! You know what calomel is. It's mercury; quick silver. Calomel is danperous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put. into your system. When you feel bilious, sluggish, con stipated and all knocked out and believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for a few cents a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirriDg you up inside, and can not salivate. Don't take calomel! It can not be trusted any more than a leopard or a wild-cat. Take Dodson’s Liver Tone which straightens you right up and makes you feel fine. Give it to the children because it is perfectly harmless and doesn’t gripe. J. W.
