usslst In eoneeallmr the location of
John M. ipater^ of Uroa, Va., resulted

"Received from t'rystal City, III., with
the request to be remailed at Den

U. S. Unworthy of Existence if It
Submits to Interference, Con
gressman Declares.
WASHINGTON, May 23.—Defend-
ing: the right of the United States to
protect her own land against the in
vasion of alien*'. Representative Sis
son, of Mississippi, urged on the
House to-day the necessity of curtail
ing the treaty-making power of tiie
President and the Senate. He advo
cated the extension of the right of
ratifying treaties to the representa
tives of the people. Sisson disclaimed
any intention of making a war speech
and explained that he merely sought
to sustain the right of America to
control her own soil.
“If any nations." he continued,
“should decide that they will dictate
how our land laws should be made,
then we will be unworthy of national
existence, if we submit to such dicta
tion. t>oes anyone claim that this is
a declaration of war because I an
nounce this truth?
“It is no declaration of war for the
United States Government to decline
to override the rights of a sovereign
State at the dictation of a foreign
power.
Wants Peace Only.
“Nothing has been further from my
mind than to embarrass or tend to
render more difficult the peaceful so
lution of whatever differences, real or
imaginary, may exist between’ the
friendly Government of Japan and
our own Government. Our officials
are to be Commended for their wise
and earnest effort to maintain peace
ful relations between the United
States and Japan.
“A treaty can not compel any de
partment of the Government to Co
what the Constitution forbids it to do.
On these questions the true canon of
construction that the treaty-making
power, in its seeming absoluteness
and unconditional extent, is confront
ed with seemingly absolute and un
conditional authority invested in the
judiciary.”
"Make Treaties Public.”
Sisson pleaded for . less secrecy in
the making of treaties. He declared
that treaties should be considered in
he open session of th<-> Senate and
the vote of each Senator should be
made a public record.
“What would become of the farmer
if the great corporations of the coun
try should enter the.iahd market and
buy all of the best lands of the coun
try and then cultivate them with
MongMian or other alien labor? The
great land corporation would driv«
the American farmer out of exist
ence.”

only daughter of the Kaiser, and
Prince Ernst of Cumberland, son of
the Duke of Cumberland and Prince
of Great Britain.
It is'nearly impossible to get ac
commodations at a first-class hotel
to-day because of the crowds that
have come to Berlin from all parts
of the Empire, from abroad and from
various parts of Europe. Even some
of the royal guests have been quar
tered at hotels because of the fact
that there was not room enough at
the Palace, where it had been planned
to quarter some of J the more distin
guished visitors.
The’celebration of the wedding
started several days ago, with a most
elaborate evening of opci-a. A State
banquet was held Friday at which
all of the impressive appearing diplo
mats here as attendants upon the
parties of their royal masters were
present. To-morrow the actual
ceremony will be performed, and Vic-

PEACE FOR WORLD
English Ruler’s Berlin Speech
Taken to Show Three Great
-Dynasties’ Friendship.
Special Cab'e to The Atlanta Georgian.
BERLIN, May 23.—“The preserva
tion of world peace Is my fervent
desire, as It was the chief aim of my j
father's life,” declared King George of
England, guest of the Kaiser, in re-1
plying to an address presented to him
by the British residents of Berlin.
This is the first political note
sounded during the wedding festivi
ties of the Kaiser’s only daughter,
for which three emperors and many
princes are gathered.
The King’s words seem, according
to the opinion expressed in influential
circles, to epitomize the chief signifi
cance of the royal visits as a demon
stration of the peaceful and friendly
relations existing among the three
powerful dynasties.
