They are now saying that George Washington had red hair. Maybe so, but .he wore a powdered wig and looked very patrician in it, one judges from his pictures. t New York bond lawyers may rib lelieve the municipal finance act legal and once the question has been raised, the next thing is to test in the courts.

Senator Brandegee of Connecticut offered, the reservation, and com mittee members said the discussion developed that even Senator Lodge - - .-wvmw.iv.vuj ....v. V. II, III 1 b H IT chairman and one of the American seems to be very strikingly vindicat ed. It was understood thir the em ployment of senatoTS'in that capacity was to get treaties ratified without modification or mutilation. But please note what is happening to the four-power tieatv. Mr. Brandegee's reservations would weaken the treaty, especially that part of the reservation saying "Mr the consent of the congress of the United States shall be necessary V any adjustment or understanding under article 1 or 2, by which (Tie United States is to be bound in any way and that there is no obligation either leenl or moral to give such consent." The treatv may not be worth much as it is to Japan an l Great Britain, but it would be " orth less in case the president could do nothing under is provisions without the express crnsent of congress in every case that should arise, wheth er or not it involved the us.- of force. , For fverv reservation to the lonr power treaty that might be adopted Japan would know how to find com pensation in Chinr." or Siheiin Th senate may trim down tho Pacific treaty-but Japan retains her gi ir on Eastern Asiar THE ILLITERACY RECORD Charlotte Observer.

With Secretary Hughes gone to Bermuda for a vacation the Senate foreign relations committee must whistle for inside information con cerning the four-power Pacific treaty. The Senate debate Thursday developed the fact that Mr. Hughes had exclusive charge of the treaty's negotiation for the American dele gation, and that cf written records, minutes, stenographic notes of con versation?, letters .or , memoranda not a scrap is in existence. If Mr. TT,,.V.c' win-mirv rpmnilVS ffOOCi. He iiuniiva Jin ."" '1 nuired information because most of the negotiations were conducted with out keeping a record. Nobody can have forgotten how much criticism was directed at President Wilson because part of the negotiations a' , ten it. Paris were carried on in the same fashion. President Harding says further more that it wr.ii Id not be compatible with the public interest to disclose the negotiation f,f the treaty. When he returns from Bermuda the com mittee could summon him as a wit ness anc"' in executive session at least he would probably be glad to enligh- The breakdown of the sytem ot diiect senatorial representation on the American delegation to the arms conference must be noted in this con nection. Neither Senator Lodge nor Senator Underwood knows a blessed thing about the inside negotiation of this treaty, which is by far the most contentious of the lot, except what Mr. Hughes has told them. For as both explained to the Senate, "the negotiations were conducted by the 'heads of delegation." It was a del icate matter finding a substitute for the Anglo-Japanese alliance ami.' the conversations, as Mr. Lodge declared, were necessarily private But there was no secrecy, Mr. Lodge insisted. The distinction is import ant; instead of negotiating in secret the heads of the delegations nego tiated in private. And the senatorial representatives, supposed to keep the Senate in intimate touch with the business 0f the conference- can now add nothing to what is already known by the public. Mr. Underwood, as the titular- leader of the opposition party in the Senate, is in no position to conv r.kvn because no information bearing on the tour-power treaty was in eluded in the 900-page report of the American delegation. Mr. Under wood oivested himself ot his r.ormai functions as a senator when he ac ccpted an appointment as one of the diplomatic agents of the President in the Washington conference. He car. not now take on those functions cgain in their purity, after having signed the treaties as an agent of the executive power. But Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the ranking Democratic member of the foreign relations committees, has lots none of his Qualifications as a senator in considering these treaties and his: resolution calling upon the "Pttesrdentj for fuller information is strictly in conformity with precedents. The truth aboil' 'the . four-rjowrer1 treaty, w.a.s undoubtedly stated pyj TJnd'rw'ooV .-when he 'said. that.it was designed to effect the v... elation of the, Anglo-Japanese alliance. This fact is generally known. But a question of real doubt remaining is the extent to which it leplaces that alliance. It is tc. be ex ""cted thfn- when he returns from Bermuda Mr. Hughes will be- heard by the Senate committee on the sub ject, at least in secret session. No records of his private conversation? were kept for o'-.vious reasons. No, one dared to preserve them owing tr.- the extreme delicacy of the ques tions involved. Sourlos versenkt.
