FEW ASK FOR CHANGES Majority Feel That President’s Guid ance Should Be Held—He Regards Pact As Sure to Come Siaon. (By Mt. Clemens News Bureau) Aboard President Wilson's Special Train—^From the Capital at Washing ton to the far Pacific coast the Presi dent of the United States has jour neyed on the most unusual expedition ever undertaken by a chief executlye of the nation. To discuss national questions, maby presidents have toured the land; but Mr. Wilson is lajring before America a question which afCects t^e whole world—the question of whether or not ws are to join in the League of Na tions; whether we are.to forgetNour former isolation and share with the other peoples of the earth the respon sibilities of maintaining civilization and preventing, as he says we can do, future warfare. Between the capital and the coast the president made fifteen speeches and half a dozen brief talks. All of 100,000 fellow citizens listened to him. Several millions had the chance to see him, and apparently ev'^tyone wanted to see him, from those who thronged the streets of the cities end towns where he stopped, to those who came to the railside or stood at little flag stations in remote places,' knowing their only reward could be a fleeting glimpse and a wave of the hand. He has met and talked to all types »f citizens—to men big in the busi ness, financiaf and professional worlds, to farmers and mechanical workers, to Indians and cowboys and foreign- born herders and rangers, to soldiers and to mothers who lost soldier-sons in the late war. What do they all tell Wm? unani mously they say they want peace definitely settled, they want no more wars, they want the League of Na tions, and most of the American peo ple, it may be fairly said, tell the President they want the League just as it is, without the reservations or amendments which certain senators have insisted upon. The majority of citizens say to those who interview them on this tour: “Woodrow Wilson guided us rightly before and during the war with Ger many. Wo entered that war, every one agrees, to end all wars. He says the league can do that. We want to do that, so let us keep on trusting him and get the league into operation as soon as possible. Forget politics.” Most Americans encountered on the tour have forgotten politics. Repub lican Governors and Mayors have in troduced the President to his audi- e»ce; the Major part of the local com- ^mittees which have met him have \ieen Republicans. They have all said: *“We are nothing but Americans, Mr. President.” Mr. Wilson’s arguments for the league, briefly summarized, are those: There can be no peace, either now or in the future, without it. There can only be a regrouping of nations and a new “Balance of Power,” which is certain to lead to war. There can be no v.ar in the future, with the league in existence, because no single nation would defy the united rest of mankind, and if it did, it could be brought to terms by an economic boycott, and without the use of arms. There can be no reduction In the cost of living until the league is es tablished, for nations will not go ahead with peace time production un. til they know that peace is definitely assured and that production oC war material Is no longer necessary. There can be wonderful prosperity, wKli the league In existence, for rel ations of labor and capital all over the world will be made closer and more friendly, and the worker will re ceive a fairer share of what he pro duces. These declaration of the president, logically and eloquently put, have left his hearers thinking ^au4 tliinking deeply. And then Mr; Wilson has pointed out, the people themselves, as differentiated from senators and politi cians, seem to want just what the president wants, whidi Is America for leadership. Quite ae unusual as the purpose of the cross country toiiir is the manner In which It is being carried out and the completeness of the arrange- m^ts on the nine car train which Is bearing the pai*ty. / ..At the rear is the private car May flower, oooupied by the President an«5 Mrs. Wilson.
