It was quite evident that they had
been giving deep thought to the
question whether this country, for
example, should obligate itself in the
Order by Mail and Save.

THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL.
manner prescribed, by article ten, and
that their conclusions were in perfect
accord with Senator Smith.
Feopl Stand on League
In other words, if the attitude o>.
the audience last night was any in
dex of the opinion prevailing in this
community, it njeant that the peo
ple are willing to enter the League
of Nations, but not upon terms that
obligate the country to participate in
the wars of the world without first
deciding whether its duty is to par
ticipate. It meant that the people
do not agree with the proposition
that the reservations insisted upon
by the senate are of such a nature
as to justify the president’s refusal
to accept them, that the people be
lieve the League of Nations cove
nant with reservations is still a real
covenant, still a good covenant, still
a covenant worth going into, still a
covenant whereby this country ac
cepts every obligation that ought to
be asked of it.
Mayor Murray Stewart introduce I
the senator in a brief and appropri
ate statement, characterizing h'm
“as a man who stands or falls by h's
own mature convictions, who is will
ing, in this question, as in all oth
ers, to submit his convictions to his
people and abide their verllct, the
foremost Georgian of his time, the
next presidential nominee of the
Democrats of Georgia.”
As the curtain rose a brass band
struck up “Dixie,” and the audience
cheered. They greeted the senator
with the strains of “America” when
he advanced to the front of the
stage, and the audience with him
stood at “attention.” Then the sena
tor bowed and the audience gave
him a thundering round of applause.
. Senator’s War Record
As a preface to his discussion of
the League of Nations, he spoke of
his great pleasure always in coming
to Savannah, of his intense interest
in Savannah’s relation to the de
velopment of the resources of Geor
gia and the nation, of the keen sat
isfaction he derives from reminding
his colleagues north of the Potomac
that Savannah’s exports are second
only to those of New York on the
Atlantic seaboard. He also paused,
with apologies for the personal al
lusion, to reply to certain state
ments contained in an editorial
Thursday afternoon in the Savannah
Press, wherein Editor Pleasant A.
Stovall accused him of obstructing
the government in its conduct of
the war against Germany.
“That statement,” said Senator
Smith, “would not be made by a
gentleman of such high character, by
an editor of such splendid fair
ness, if he had not’ been away from
home for the past seven years.
(Laughter). One of my reasons for
insisting upon a reservation to ar
ticle ten of the League of Nations
covenant is that I am unwilling to
entrust the destiny of my country
to one man located in Switzerland,
even though he be the best citizen in
the United States.” (Laughter and
applause). The senator then remind
ed Editor Stovall that he voted for
the declaration of war, voted for the
selective service bill, helped to pre
pare the war appropriation bills in
the appropriation committee. Served
as a member of the military commit
tee of the senate when that commit
tee wag enlarged by the addition of
one member to give him a place on
it, supported vigorously the attitude
of Secretary Garrison favoring prep
aration prior to entrance into the
war, and personally urged President
Wilson in 1914 to begin to get ready
in view of the probality, even then
apparent, that the United States
would finally be forced to take a
hand.
This reply to Editor Stovall’s ac
cusation seemed entirely satisfactory
to the audience. It was made in the
best of feeling for that gentleman,

of the senator, and who was urged
by the senator for appointment to
Switzerland, and evidently the audi
ence was pleased with the dignified,
courteous and pleasant manner in
which the senator treated the mat
ter.
Not Wilson’s League Draft
Then, launching into his discus
sion of the League of Nations, Sen
ator Smith declared that the draft
of the covenant adopted by the
peace conference was vastly differ
ent from the draft taken over by
President Wilson, the explanation
being that the draft adopted was the
handiwork of General Smuts, “An
English citizen residing in South
Africa,” and not the president’s
draft. He pointed out that the pres
ident took with him as his advisers
Mr. Lansing, General Bliss, Mr.
White, Colonel House, Mr. Auchin
closs and Mr. Miller, the last two
being selected for their knowledge
of international law. He pointed
out that Lansing, Bliss and White
jointly prepared a letter to the pres
ident severely criticising the draft
as adopted, and Lansing paid his
job as the penalty for that differ
ence of opinion with the president.
He pointed out that Auchincloss and
Miller strongly advised against the
very provisions covered by certain
reservations insisted upon by the
senate, and in consequence of that
advice, Colonel House, the father
in-law of Auchincloss, has not been
invited to the White House since his
return from Europe last summer, al
though previously he had been
known as the president’s closest ad
viser.
In other words, as emphasized by
Senator Smith, the men selected by
the president to advise him in Paris,
and presumably to assist in the prep
aration of the League of Nations,
were practically a unit in their ob
jection to the very provisions criti
cised in the senate and most of them
have suffered the penalty of the pres
ident’s displeasure to a greater de
gree than has the senate, for the
simple reason that he could dismiss
them from his councils, and has
done so.
“If I could approve the instru
ment he brought back from Paris,”
said Senator Smith, “X would do so
gladly. But he rejected not only
the advice of those chosen as his ad
visers, but rejects also the advice of
the senate, which by the constitution
is required to be advised with in the
making of a treaty.”
Certain NOHlficatlons Desirable
As to the president’s assertion
that the reservations nullify the
covenant, Senator Smith said the
president unfortunately was mis
taken In his choice of words, taking
the covenant as a whole, although as
to certain provisions of the cove
nant he did agree that they are nul
lified, and “I am here to convince
you that they ought to be nullified,”
The senator pointed out that the
first draft of the covenant, the ten
tative draft brought back by the
president in the spripg of 1919, con
tained no provision for member na
tions to withdraw. The president, on
returning to Paris, called attention
of the peace conference to his un
derstanding that any-member should
have the right to withdraw. But
the conference flatly disputed his
view and yielded only to withdrawal
upon two years’ notice, provided the
withdrawing nation had performed
ali of its obligations under the cove
nant. There was nothing provided,
the senator pointed out, as to who
should decide whether such a nation
had performed its obligations, and
in the absence of any different pre
vision it was obliged to be seen that
the council of the league would be
the one to decide.
“I object to that,” thundered Sena
tor Smith, and the audience answer
ed with thunderous applduse. “I
therefore voted for a reservation
that “WE would decide whether we
had performed our obligations.”
And again the audience roared its
emphatic approval.
“I would rather be carried dead
from the senate,” said he, with his
voice again rising to a thunderous
tone,' “than to vote for it without
reservations,” and this was answered
with prolonged and tremendous ap
plause.
Mandatories
The next "point discussed was
mandatories. Senator Smith ex
plained that he objected to this
provision because it authorizes the
council of the league to place a
mandatory upon the United States
without the congress being consult
ed, although a mandatory placed up
on the United States may require
the use of a very large army in a
foreign country for many years. The
mandatory which was tentatively
dealt out to the United States in
the peace conference program, as he
pointed out, was a mandatory over
Turkey, and general staff experts
making a careful survey of that sit
uation informed the congress that
such a mandatory would require two
hundred and fifty thousand men
plus a billion dollars a year. Senator
Smith’s objection to this provision is
that a mandatory would be accepted
by the representative of the United
States appointed by the president.
Hence he insists upon a reservation
that no such authority shall be ex
ercised by our representative with
out referring it back to congress for
approval or disapproval.
Domestic Questions
Then came the question of the
council’s authority to take jurisdic
tion of domestic questions. The sen
ator pointed out that the covenant
makes no specific definition of what
a domestic question is, and all of
the authorities on international law
put together make no definition that
can be called clear, and hence he in
sists upon a reservation explicitly
stating that the United States goes
into the league with the understand
ing that the term “domestic ques
tions” shall Include immigration,
the tariff, labor, etc.
“This provision as it now stands.”
said the senator “is an invitation to
Japan to hale us before the coun
cil for refusing to allow Japanese
immigration. So far as I am con
cerned, I am opposed to all immi
gration from the orient (tremendous
applause) and I am not in favor of
any single ‘gentlemen’s agreement’
on the subject. I am in favor of
telling them plainly that no Japan
ese shall come into this country,
and they can say the same with re
gard to Americans if they want to,
and then if they insist upon fight
ing about it, I am ready to fight.'
(Prolonged applause). I think it wis
a good time to make our position
clear in this matter when boys

were coming back from France.”
(Laughter and applause).
Praises Doughboys and Pershing
Here the senator turned aside for
a moment to pay an eloquent tribute
to the fighting qualities of the Amer
ican soldier in France and the mili
tary genius of General Pershing,
whom he considered by far the great
est of all the commanders of the
war, because he had the profound
insight into the nature of.his army
to see that they would whip the
Germans in the open and do it in
short order if they were given the
chance, and he demanded for them
and got for them the consent of
Marshal Foch to prove their mettle.
The senator’s next objection to the
League of Nation’s covenant Sts pre
sented to the senate was the article
establishing an international labor
conference clothed with authority
almost to legislate for each and ev
ery member o& the league, clothed
with the authority to publish and
Circulate a newspaper at the expense
of the members, clothed with author
ity to hale the United States to show
cause why it should not enact into
law a recommendation by the con
ference concerning some labor ques
tion in this country. The bulk of
the members of this proposed con
ference, the senator declared, would
be foreign labor agitators, and they
are the very type that have foment
ed the serious labor disturbances in
this country, the type that advocate
soviet rule, public ownership of in
dustry, equal distribution of all in
dustrial profits, and numerous other
forms of radical socialism. No such
program, declared Senator Smith, is
good for this country or for the la
bor of this country.
Article Ten
Then the senator came to article
ten, the one which has been discuss
ed most of all. As brought back
from Paris, he said, this article dif
fers vastly from what the president
originally submitted, for his provid
ed specifically for territorial read
justments pursuant to the principle
of self-determination, and he de
clared in discussing this principle
that nothing less than the emancipa
tion of the subject races of the
world would accomplish world peace.
“This was a marvelous spiritual
conception,” said Senator Smith. “It
was the conception of a man with his
eyes upon the stars who did not see
the holes in front of him. lam say
ing this with the utmost respect.
President Wilson is a man of inspir
ing ideals. I admit that a man must
sometimes go beyond the practical to
lead the people up to an idea, but I
cannot follow blindly when I see in
front of me a dangerous chasni.”
The suggestion made by Messrs.
Auchincloss and Miles, the senator
said, was to provide in Article X
that the contracting parties would
not violate or impair the territorial
integrity of any party, but instead
of that language the article binds
all parties to “preserve and protect
existing boundaries against external
aggression.”
This obligation is nothing more nor
less, as the senator convincingly ar
gued, than an obligation upon the
United States to employ its army
and navy in the wars of the world
without a free choice by the people
through their congress as to whether
they feel in duty bound to partici
pate. It is a violation, he declared,
of that provision of the Constitution
which vests in congress the sole and
exclusive power to declare war, be
cause it places in the hands of our
representative y in the _ council the
power to make a decision of such
binding force upon congress as to
leave that body in an attitude of re
pudiating the pledge of the United-
States should it refuse to go into
war.
The senator discussed Article X
at length and in detail, presenting
numerous of the man
ner in which it would draw the coun
try into wars where quite conceivably
the opinion of America might not
support the nation commencing hos
tilities.
"I won’t vote for It,” he said
bluntly, and the statement seemed
to express to an absolute finality the
feeling’ of the audience, for they
roared their approval.
“As Lloyd George stated,” the sen
ator continued, “this Article X ‘puts
behind existing territorial boundaries
the purse and army of the United
States.’ He is exactly right, as
proven by the president’s request
for a huge standing army and uni
versal military service. We will
need both if we accept Article X
without reservations.”
Why He Is in Primary
Finally, summing up the whole
matter, Senator Smith said:
“The principle of all these reser
vations is that the power shall not
be given to one man in Switzerland
to rule your destiny, one man solely
answerable to the president. (Ap
plause.) Not the present president,
mind you. There will be other pres
idents in the future, and this League
of Nations is supposed to be perma
nent, going on for all time. There
will be, I trust, another president on
the fourth of next March. (Prolonged
applause.) This is not a,criticism of
President Wilson. I am . not in
favor of any man ever born being
president three consecutive terms.
(More applause.) I am in this pri
mary to prevent Georgia sending to
San Francisco a delegation obligated
to vote for the League of Nations
without reservations, and then inevi
tably to vote for President Wilson as
the Democratic nominee. Such a plat
form and candidate would be suicidal.
(Loud applause.) I repeat th?.t Pres
ident Wilson is one of the greatest
presidents in American history, but
that does npt mean I must follow
him blindly. (Applause.) Any man
on earth'will make mistakes, and the
more you put him beyond the power
of public opinion the more he is like
ly to make them (Applause.)
“Article X puts upon you and your
children and your children’s children
the obligation to participate in the
wars of the world. I want to keep
their right of decision just where it
is—in the hands of their congress,
and if a reservation to that effect is a
nullification of the covenant, then
nothing but nullification will satisfy
me. The president says he must
have Article X without a reservation
such as we insist upon. I reply that
he shall not have it. (Prolonged ap
plause.)
“The Press and the Morning News,
unable to discuss the matter with
any better intelligence, say I voted
with Lodge. I announced in the cau
cus of Democratic senators prior to
the time when Senator Lodge drew
his reservation that I would not vote
for Article X as it stood. I have
voted my convictions in this matter.
I was not put there to vote somebody
else’s conviction. (Applause.) ft
the people had told me they wanted
a rubber stamp senator, I should
have been obliged to say I would not
serve them. (Applause.) If they
want a senator to be led around by
the ndse they certanly will be obliged
to get them another man, and they
will not have to wait very long, for
my term expires shortly. (Tremen
dous applause.)

COTTON
NEW YORK, March 26. —The cotton mar
ket was irregular at the opening today,
first prices being 10 points higher to 9
points lower. Near pionths were relative
ly steady on renewed covering, inspired by
the steadiness of foreign exchange, and
there was some scattered buying of new
crop months on the rains or showers in
eastern and central sections of the belt.
The precipitation was not heavy enough to
create much sentiment, however, while the
eastern belt forecast for fair weather was
a disappointment to buyers of yesterday.
This led to considerable realizing and Wall
street selling was a result of which prices
eased off several points after the call.
May sold down from 38.25 to 38.13 and Oc
tober from 32.19 to 31.99, or 2 to 12 points
net lower.
Reports that exporters were buying spots
in the south were accompanied by an in
creased demand for May contracts in the
market here and prices advanced sharply
during the morning.- May sold up to 38.48,
or 33 points net higher and the strength of
the near position pulled up other months, al
though the new crop was held back by fa
vorable weather forecasts and better crop
advices. October sold at 32.19, or 8 points
net higher. The export demand was said
to come from the continent, sales being re
ported for shipment to Havre and Germany.
There was realizing enough to cause slight
reactions early in the afternoon but they
soon firmed up again owing to the contin
uped demand for May, large exports for the

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, March 26.—Selling -of
cotton today followed the reports from
Washington of the adoption by the senate
of an amendment to the laws regulating
future contract trading. Additional selling
came up on the market because of a dis
appointing Liverpool. In the first half
hour of business the trading months lost
22 to 28 points, May trading down to 37.42.
The rains in the central and eastern sec
tions of the belt were considered to be
heavy enough to be highly unfavorable and
likely to cause further backwardness in
crop preparations. Late in the morning the
trading mnoths were unchanged to 6 points
up, compared with the final prices of yes
terday.
A strong demand developed for May and
under the leadership of that month the
whole list strengthened. At 1 o’clock prices
were 7 to 46 pointe over yesterday’s finals,
May standing at 28.11.

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS
Bond. McEnany & Co.: The market main
tains a steady tone, which is due to the
constant trade demand for cotton.
E. F. Hutton & Co.: Until there Is some
increase In the local stock, near months
will continue to be dominated by this fac
tor, while the new will be influenced by the
weather.
Moyse & Holmes: We feel friendly toward
the market, and would buy July and Octo
ber options on all setbacks.
Hlrsch, Lilienthal & Co.: We believe
cotton should be purchased on this decline.
Munds, Rogers and Stackpole: It appears
to us that the market is in a posotion to
respond to any fresh bullish Influence.
E. W. Wagner & Co.: The market episode
has left the trade in a puzzled frame of
mind and price changes have been frequent
and uncertain with no definite trend.
S. M. Weld & Co.: While not bearish
we think it advisable to wait for a good re
action to buy on.
lawyer of Bryan county, who has
recently been all over the district in
his campaign for congress, told The
Journal correspondent that he had
no objection at all to being quoted

Bennet & Co.: Look for a good trading
corn market with wide swings; on good de
clines would take the buying side until con
ditions as to supply nnd demand change.
Lamson Bros.: It will require a sus

down.

to think that this decline will shut off

SHEPARD & GLUCK COTTON LETTER x
NEW ORLEANS, March 26.—The UesuW
bill, adopted by the senate requiring that
tenders on contracts shall contain 50 pei
cent of grades from middling to middling
fair, caused liquidation on the opening of
the cotton market today, although it was
realized that such a contract as the Come:
bill would make could not be sold. Latei
the market recovered on the rains east ol
the Mississippi river and finally pronounced ,
strength developed under the leadership oi >
May, which appears to be taking the sam«
route that March went. Legislation and
the weather map will have to be watched
In the near future.
