Constitutes Renunciation. ' "It must not be forgotten senator, that this article constitutes a renun ciation of wrong ambition on the part of powerful nations with whom we were associated in the war. It is by no means certain that without this article any. such renunciation will taCe place. Militaristic ambi tions and imperialistic policies are by no means dead even in the coun sels of the nations whom we most trust and with whom we most desire to be, associated in the tasks of peace Throughout the sessions of the conference in rans, it was evi dent that a militaristic party, under the most influential leadership, was seeking io gain ascciwancy in counsels of France. Tney were de feated then, but are in control now. The chief arguments ' advanced in Paris in support of the Italian claims on the Adriatic were strategic ar guments, that is to say, military ar-v guments, which had at their back the thought of naval supremacy in- that sea. ror my own .pan, i am as intolerant ot imperialistic- ae- signs on the part of other nations as I was of such designs on the part of Germany. , r- Choice Between Two Ideals.' The choice is between two ideals: On the one hand, the ideal of dem ocracy1 which represents the rights of iree peoples everywhere to gov ern themselves and on the other hand, the ideal of imperialism which seeks to dominate by force and un just power, an ideal which is by no means dead and which is earnestly held in many quarters still. Every imperialistic influence in Europe was hostile to the embodiment of article ten in the covenant and its defeat now would mark complete consummation of their efforts to nullify the treaty. I hold the doc trine of article ten to be the essence of Americanism. We cannot repu diate it or weaken it without repu tffaringvour own principles. The imperialist wants no league of nations, but, if in response to the universal cry of the masses everywhere, there is to be one he is interested to secure one suited to his own purposes, one that will per mit him to continue, the historic game of pawn ar4 peoples the jug gling of , provinces, the old balance of power, and the inevitable wars attendant upon these things.

Reservation's, Nullify. I need not say tha't I have given a great deal of thought to the whole matter of reservations proposed in connection , with the ratification of the treaty, and particularly that por tion of the treaty which contains the covenant or the league of nations, and I have been struck by the fact that practically every so-called res ervation i was in effect a rather sweoing" nullification of the terms 1 of the treaty. I hear of reserva tionists and mild reservationists, but I cannot understand , the difference between a nullifier and a mild nulli fier. Our responsibility as a nation in this turning point is an over whelming one, and if-1 had the op portumty I would beg everyone concerned to consider the matter in the light of. wjat it is possible to accomplish for humanity ' rather than in the light of special national interests.

The letter seems to me to be a very proneunced statement in favor of his position that he will reject the treaty it it is changed in any respect. He even rejects mild reservations. The president makes the issue a league or no league which is in the form I would like it. Senator' McCormick of Illinois said: "The president is logical. He joins the issue upon straight ratifica tion withiut any reservations which reserve. He Stands by his Jackson Day letter and plainly characterizes the mud reservationists as mud nullifies.'- I hope we may have done with the refinement ot verbal dis. tinctions and go to a vote." The "mild" reservationists resent ed their characterization by the pres. ident as "mild nullifiers" and Sena tor Kellogg or Minnesota, one ot their spokesmen, declared . that he would never vote for such a propo. sition as article 10.

Lincoln, Neb., March 8.--II. H. Wilson, widely known Nebraska lawyer and member of the law firm of Burkett. Wilson & Brown of this city, has issued a letteV advocating the nomination of Gen, John J. Pershing by the national republican convention. Mr. Wilson was an instructor of law at the University of Nebraska when General Pershing;, . then com- manaani at mar institution, was taking the law course there. He knows General Pershing well, ad mires him greatly, and believes he is thoroughly equipped by natural en dowment, Dy trainme and ' oy ex perience top the presidency. Jn'tiis letter Mr. Wilson sas: ' , "In the earlier davs of the reoub lie the president of the United States was regarded principally as the chief executive of the nation. I he last, few decades have wit nessed a radical change in our con ceptions of the duty of a president. The constitution originally contem- .I.. i . . i .1. . , , uuiixu mat mc president snouia trom time to time give the conirress information on 'the state of the union and recommend for its con sideration such measures as he should judge necessary and ex pedient. 1 , . Chief Legislative Factor. "To this function tf .giving infor mation and recommending meas ures the constitution also'adds the tunction of approving ors vetoing measures passed by the congress. In our later development the people have learned to look primarily to the president as the chief factor in national legislation. While the con gressmen are -elected by districts and the senators by states, the president is elected by the nation, and all parts of the country feel that they have had a greater and more direct influence in the election of the president than in the .choice of either the senate or the house. This doubtless accounts for the modem tendency of the people to look to the president -for the enactment of laws as welt as for their execution. This added duty of the president re quires the exercise of greater power and demands peculiar qualifications. "The people of America now de mand in a" president broad vision, clear thinking, firm determination and a compelling personality. The ideal president is one capable of de vising ways and means to carry out me will of the people: capable of estimating men at theifctrue worth, surrounding- himself, by those who are capable of giving the. best sup port, and possessing such a com pelling, personality as to lead others to accept his point of view. , P'oved Himself Capable. "General Pershing has-had an ex tensive and varied career, and has proved himself capable and worthy in every situation in which he has been placed. The organization of a great army on foreign soil, more than 3,000 miles from its base of supply, was a task no other general has ever been called upon to ner form. The organization, enuioment and . pnysical maintenance of the American army under these circum stances was clearly the largest busi ness enterprise that Ameria has ever entered upon. -No American aren eral ever was criven so extensive au thority or evcrcised powers so varied and extensive. The supreme success cf this, the greatest of America's business enterprises, is now known to all the world. "In the progress of the war Gen eral Pershing was called upon to meet and solve some of the most difficult and embarrassing diplomatic questions America has ever had to face. While America lagged far be- hand in the production of aircraft, ft -is noteworthy that General Per shing by iis diplomacy assembled at. St. Mihie! the greatest air force ever assembled on the face of the earth under1 a single command. At, a time when 60 per cent of our men were going overseas in English ships, England and France both de manded that enly infantry and ma- me gunners should be transported. and these to renew the 'wasting ranks of bur allies; and this plan was in the war council approved by the premiers and commanders of all the allies. In tace ot this unanimous military and civil opinion of our al lies General Pershing announced the formation of the American army and, frankly told the council tjiat it wonld be an American army that would win the war. To stand sin gle-handed and alone for the organic ration of an independent American army, against the combined judg ment of, the premiers and all ine other commanders,-at a time when 60rper cent of- that army must be transported m vessels other than American, required moral- courage of the highest type. To bring the others to his viewpoint i a meas-yl ure cf the -compelling power of his personality. Wisdom of Decisions. "None would jiow be more ready to approve the wisdom of that de cision tharf those who there so bit terly opposed, it.

Nebraska ' and again later it was General Pershing who first urged -the neces sity of unity behind the lines in the purchase and disposition of -stopr plies. ' In both these respects he brought others to his viewpoint and proved the wisdom of his decision. "Of his success as a military com mander one need hardly speak, as it is now a part of the worlds his tory. It was, however, he who sensed the change that was ap proaching from a war of position to a war of movement, and it was he who directed' the training of the American forces for a warfare of movement, that movement to be an offensive one. How thoroughly he succeeded in imparting his- own en thusiasm to his vast army: how completely he imbued their minds with his tvHI to win,' is measured by the fact that while your armies lost but about 3,500 prisoners, they toblc more than 6J.000." Best Business Man. "This is possible only to an armv loyal to. their leader and imbued with his willr The great accomplish ments of the American army in the field was possible only because their commander had the bower of ac curately estimating the availablity of his subordinates ' and surrounded himself with the best the American army could supply. "I am, therefore, for General Per shing for president. First; because he is clearly America's most success ful business man, having successfully developed and conducted America's reatest business enterprise. Second: - am for. him because he has shown nis ability to bring other great men to. his own viewpoint when a great crisis was impending and has displayed in many difficult situations the highest qualities of diplomacy. Third: I am for him because it would be valuable to have, as commander- in-chief of the American army and navy,. One who Knows what an fcrmy means and, who could be trusted to preserve American rights on land and sea. In my opinion General Pershing at this moment- possesses more of the qualities that make a great president and has had greater experience in the exercise of these great qualities than any other living American. The best is none too good when we come to choose a president i pf O.OOO.OOO1 people." Wlbur L. Burgess of' Burgess-Granden Co. Retires Temporarily Wilbur L.
