grand sires established and our fathers preserved 'Upabashed by this rebuke and with'an obstinacy ot purpose which had for Its end an ambition that would have aroused jealousy In the breast of an Alexander or a Napol eon Wilson took his way to aria undertook to put us Ilka super fed eration ot the world By means ot what is called a league of nations and is now about to receive the na tion's

called league nations proposed covenant instead of abolishing war actually sanc tions breeds and commands it Moreover it absolutely requires that every future war shall be a poten tial world war and

Nations tell you that Article Ten of the covenant of the League of Nations would make it possible for other nations to lead us into war' it may be just as well to inquire who told us so The person who told me that under Article Ten we were under 'an absolutely compelling moral obligation' to go to war to repel external aggression against a mem ber of the League of Nations was President Wilson as the following dialogue at the WhiteTIoUsc dis closes: Knox: Mr President al low me to ask this question: Sup pose that it is perfectly obvious and accepted that there is an external aggression againstsome power and suppose it Is perfectly obvious and accepted that it cannot be repelled except by force of arms would we be under' any legal obligations to The JTesident: No sir but we would be

village to be stopped or some months tbe village has been selling cual to its own citi zens for 315 a ton and it is claimed by the village authorities that this is the same quality as coal that is being sold by dealers for $16 In al) 35 carloads have been sold According to Bresna han this coal was received on pri ority orders for the municipal light ing plant which was recently sold to the Detroit Edison company Areut Makes Jftreat Thursday a man named Semple representing the commission and a representative of the state utilities commission appeared in River Rouge and informed Bresnahan that the commerce commission had stop ped all shipments of coal to River Rouge because coal sent there had been used for purposes other than that for which it was given pri ority This order he said was is sued October 15 Since that time however two cars have been re ceived and unloaded in River Rouge and eight more have been shipped according to the president leaving him powerless to take court action until a shipment actually is held up or diverted Explaining the presence of the state utility commission represen tative Mr Bresnahan said that the commission had issued a question hire to all municipalities asking about their needs for strictly muni cipal purposes and he had declined to fill ono out and retyrn It The vlpit was for the pur pose of learning why The legal battle against4 the in terstate commission will be baaed on two contentions The first is that the commission has authority only over cars and not over coal in other it fa none of the business what the consignee docs with
