under the tonic action of the treatment.
Loss of smell, taste, defective hearing

the presence of catarrah and which may

pARIS, Sept. 25. 0m gets little aspects, nf truih and opinion, *hich is '">j
the same thing as truth, in going about like I am now doing and talking
to humble people as one meet* Oicm in estaminets, among thi ruins of the
war zone and on the road-ides. The point of view as expressed hv these peo-
ple whn suffered and are suffering from the outrage of war is different from
that one would hear from fftcat people and is closer to the truth of life as ''
is seen in the peasants' cottages and middle class' homes. ,
f'rom old people in wooden huts on the edge of desert lands from drivers
of lured motor ears, from visitors who were soldiers, from little groups ot
people sitting around wooden tables in wayside inns, and from business men
trying in ''reconstruct" that which has been destroyed, I have been g a
down a little lo the popular psychology of France after the war, and it is . •
teresting. I find the people are great "equalists. They face the facts squa t-
ly and do not camouflage by financial hopes or rose-colored romance, inoi
tven victory and its pageantry covers up by one grain of du t their reaiiza-
t'on of the immense horror of war and of its price in blood ana ruin, mili-
tary glory has no meaning to them except in stern duty and the endurance of
the abominable things which had to be endured,

Thi* man and others like blm look ha'k
to years of war with disgust and not
wholly a? an adventure witJb 1 ninnuie-
sbip and good fun between the u#?l> hnnrH
like some of ours. They di'l what they lid
beeause It was necessary to save France,
but they hated It all, and now they lace the
present and future with mostly an .in-
flinching sense of truth. Even those who
have hope In the fnturo because ot I heir
strength of character do not disguise from I
themselves ihe slow rate of progress Ly |
which it will be possible to clew awaj u
Ibis ruin about them and rebuild, twenty |
years, thirty years, are the figures given ;
by people In the devastated regions for tlie j
icsiirrectiou of their villages and farms.
They shrug their shoulders at the word e-
eonstruetlon used as a watr,hwnrd by 'be
newspapers and the politicians and say,
"That is n fine phrase Meanwhile we
have no material, no indemnities for our
losses. No means of getting labor. The
government does nothing, perhaps it is
powerless lo do anything because of <»ijr
drain of blood, and this great devastation
and poverty of all but the profiteers."
I find everywhere this contempt for pol-
iticians. France shrugs its shoulders at
them all, and says, "It is a game. It has
no reality.' They piu their faith to local
initiative and individual energy lo build
up on tfie ruins, yet are aghast al the
enormity of the task. Most individuals I
meet have suffered the l«»ss of all their
pre war possessions The driver of the
motor car ownei) his own garage before
the war. I'he government requisitioned
his ears ami sold them afterward for dou-
ble the price lie had been given, but as ye',
he has recovered no indemnity and is now
a hired chauffeur. An old woman who
Kepi an inn on the Meuin Road fled from
ii when the German shells came near and
is now back iu a wooden shack. <>n the
wall is a large poster setting forth claims
lor damage which musl la* made to the
government i>el'ore a certain date She
made them months ngo but has not
touched a penny. So it is iu millions il'
rases, and there is exasperation, just or
unjust. I know not. because there is no
repayment out of the national treasury for
losses incurred by acts of war.
Lack of labor in France h serious and
made worse by constant strikes for higher
wages and b.v the high scale of wages now
demanded by men who are not much In
dined to work with their old industry,
whatever their reward. They will work
a little bit and then lake a holiday aud
enjoy themselves. They were iu the mud
of war. They lived in the trenches. They
were surrounded with death. They is
• aped. Shall they not enjoy life now like
the profiteers who did nothing'.'1 Hut yet
the rich cafes are crowded. There are
throngs outside the cinemas. In Lille
where conditions are very bad they are
not so bad that they stop the fun of the
fair, or fail to crowd tlie circus where
French clowns cause shouts of laughter
and strong men do prodigious feats and
Japanese wrestlers defy the laws of sunt
omy In a great tent there were 4,000
people at lenst ruder the glare of the
lights I looke-l at all their faces, intense,
gaping, laughing at the comic antics.
They were soldiers and ex-soldiers with
their wives and sweethearts. Every man
there and every woman knew the tragedy
of war. In their souls th^ were prisoners.
Many of them went through the tears of
lie||. New they were shoaling and scream-
ing with laughter. It is their nted in iif-a.
They must have laught' < and light shows
and pleasure. The.\ huvc coine out of the
darkness. Not even work must Interfere
too much with their vital need, which in
this after war psychology i amusement.
Hut, as one man told no today, anil J be-
lieve him, "People do not laugh, they must
weep, for truly victory has not brought
much joy, but only peace which is full «f
danger aud the knowledge of ruin which
can only be repaired after many genera-
tions."
Cardinal Mooter's words, that "Germany
is already preparing a war of revengo
which may come in lo years," struck a
• hill in the hearts of many people who
read these words in the local papers, it
is a terrifying idea another war. French
peasants and bourgeoise regret they could
not crush Germany mor». It only they had
gone to Berlin! The idea that there may
be any comradeship of democracy between
French workers and German workers, so
preventing another war, is held, I think,
only by international Socialists of the o|H
type, who have many new adherents; nut
do not in my opinion I inevitably super-
ficial! represent the majority of ihe work
ing classes in Fnyjce. Many of them re
gurd that as an illusion and some of them
as a trewchery. They shrug their shoul-
der* at the gospel of brotherhood, and
say, "The Roche Is a bandit, an assassin.'*
For England, there Is iu the north where
our troops were known and where they
fought, a friendly and affectionate remem-
brance. but that does not prevent growing
suspicion in the minds of many French
people that England got "nil the fat." as
they say, out of the peace terms and that
she waxed fat herself out of ihe war 't
is no use telling them we are speuding
two millions a day more than our income
They say "Knglatid is rich. England Is
enlarging her empire. England aud Amer
iea are masters of the world."
Small private quarrels inevitable but os
trunging are breaking out among the
French and British troops encamped near
each other in the desert of old battlefields
as when some days ago bayonets were
drawn in an estamlnet and four German
heavyweights from the prisoners' ctgu
nearby wen- brought In by poilus to re-
dress the balance in numbers That Ger-
man intervention was regurded as a huge j
joke by our Tommies and has indeed an
element of cotuedy. Rut such incidents
are exaggerated when they are told iu the
J countryside This morning only. I was
I asked, not by a peasant, but by a distia-
! gulshed man. whether it is true that Eng
| land is submerged in a wave of autl Freuen
| sentiment. The question astounded ine.
for I have seen no trace of It. And 1 was
I alarmed, too, because it is a sad and dao-
l gerous thing that so soon after our com
radeship in arms, when so many of o.ir
1 men died on French soil side by side witli
; French troops, that antagonism should
separate our i>eople. During these recent
days 1 have seen how deeply France has
1 suffered iu the war. Not all that we have
1 suffered reaches the height of that agony
through which France passed with sac.d
, tidal courage, for there Is uo wide belt of
ruin in English fields, and our wounds',
dwp as they are, have not left such friglit
Iul scars or such national danger. In
France, however, today there is the same
old courage which was theirs in war ami
many people of hope and faith and active
brains work at enormous problems tlnit
confront them, and the industry of peas
ants on their land, ami all the shadow • f
war which si ill lies over France, I see
the brightness of an intellectual people,
there is something in the spirit of Frame
which nothing can destroy ami which this
war has not destroyed.
France will live.

Text of Wilson's Speech
DENVEH, Colo., Sept. SB.—president
Wilson's speech here today, in part,
I follows:
j Mr. Chairman, My Fellow Countrymen:
I always feel a thrill of pride standing
I beforo a great company of my fellow clti-
I vens to speak of this great document
' which we shall always know as the Treaty
of Versailles. 1 am proud to speak for it
J because for the first time in the history of
I international consultation men have turned
1 away from tho ambitions of government
and sought to advance the fortunes of peo*
I pics; they hate turned away from all those
' older plans of domination aud sought to
t lay anew the foundations for the liberty
1 of mankind. I say without hesitation that
j this is a great document of liberation. It
: i0 a new charter for the liberty of men;
and as we advanced from week to week.
I and from mouth to month, in the debate
j of this great document, 1 think a great
• many things we talked about at first have
cleared away.
I You w|ll notice that, with the single ex-
ception of Hie provision in regard to *be
I transfer from the German Empire of tr.u
I Shantung Province to Japan, practically
I nothing in the body of the treaty ha *
' seemed to constitute any great obstacle 1 o
! its adoption. All the <ontroversies, all the
i talk hss centered on 'he League of Nations
and I am glad to see the Issues centefzd.
I want, Just by way of Introduction, to
call your attention and to point out whit
Is not often enough explained to nudleuccs
In this country the actual constitution of
the League of Nations. It consists of two
bodies, a council and nn assembly. Th»
assembly is the numerous body. In it
»very self governing state that has a vote
wi the league Is represented, and not only
the self governing Independent states, but
the self-governing colonies and dominions.
If is In the assembly that the combined
j representation of the several members of
the British Empire are assigned uli votes,
nod you are constantly being told fhnt
fireat Britain has si\ votes and we have
one I waut you to appreciate the full
plgnlfleinee of that: they have six votes
in the assembly and the assembly don't
\ofc So that bubble Is exploded. There
are several matters In which the vote of
Ihe assembly must c.o-oparate with the ?ote
of the council, but In every such case a
unanimous vote of the council Is ne^eswiry.
Inasmuch ss the T'nlted States Is a perm i
nent member of the eonncll, her vote is
nctepsary to every active policy of the
league ftiid therefore the single vote of the
1'nited States always counts si*, so far as
the votes of the British Empire ore con-
cerned: and If It Is a mers question of
than six and count si,\. And that afforls
emphasis to tho point 1 wish to keep dh
tinetly In nil 11(1 with regard to re&ervations
and all the qualifications of ratification
which are being disr usaed. So action can
be undertaken by the league without :h"
ussenting vote of the United States.
That being the case. It becomes sheer
nonsense, niy fellow citizens, to talk about 1
separai.' government being set up over
the Fiiited States, It becomes sheer uon
sense to sajr that any authority is const!
tuted which can move our armies to other
partg of the world. It can not interfere
with our domestic, questions, it can not
direct our international policy even in
any matler which we do not consent to
be direcipd, nf course, I do not mean to ;
say I hat we do not agree to pool our moral
Issues Wo do that In acquiescing in the
covenant of Hie league, and do attempt tu
-J la
adopt certain fundamental moral primi
pies of right and Justice. We arc not turn
Ing any comer, and we do not Intend to
change ,,nr course of government or our J
standards of government, and ii is Ameri |
'■nn standards of government that are set
up in the covenant of the League of Nil I
Hons And what Is the covenant for? It is I
onu of the most solemn covenants ever en
tered into by all /the grcal fighting pow |
ers of the world, that they will never re :
