Assailing the fuur-iKAvcr treaty as a quadrup le, alliance. Senator Johnson. Repub lic i.t California, told the senate ioday that its ratification would mrun nut only a recession of Amer ican tia-iition. but a national surren der under threat of foreign power. "Ii the statements of the treaty's tYHTuis are to be accepted," Senator Johncswi buid, "and abrogation of the AnIo-Japanese alliance is to be rcrJe-l as the chief argument, then tat only exeme is that tht United Suit must enter into new to es citpe the old. "The argument for this present sur render of our ancient policy of inde pendvr.t nutional action," continued the California senator, "is nothing in thf wid but that one word dan ger. The Anglo-Japanese alliance, the gentlemen on the other side say, ex pues us to danger. Therefore we have no choice. We must accept this treaty. I shall vote against this treaty, because if any foreign alli ance can ever speak to this country with the word 'must', then the spirit whirh made this country safe when it u treble, will have departed from it, unrt our record in history will be that of trying to barter our heritage f"i rational protection." Mr. .Johnson quoted many utteranc h of Japanese and British statesmen riving insurance that the Anglo-Jap-anef alliance never was directed titfaiiw. the United States and if tfhey ww tme then this government has nothing to fear, he said.

Crouch Assistant Grand' Secretary Degree demonstrations now being staged in the State are the result of plans formulated by the Grand Mas ter and Grand Secretary. They are patterned somewhat after lik demon strations previously held in the ju risdiction of- New Jersy. It was largely a matter of experience fol lowing the attendance contest and for educational purposes. To demon strate various lodges the value of efficcient degree work, the work at the demonstrations being put on by the best degree teams available. These demonstrations to my mind have been most successful. True, we have in some ins'ances been disap pointed because there were not more candidates, but taking into consider ation that this was a new thing in this State and in some cases .not ful lv understood by the lodges "they failing to realize just he'w much this meant to each individual lodge, these meetings have been productive of a fine fellowship, a desire for better degree work and' a vision of a greater and more : efficient Odd Fel lowship in North Carolina. Not only this, but it has given the order more publicity in this State than it has ever had before.. When has Odd fel lowship had the distinction ot hav ing whole pages of the daily press devoted to it before? And yet we have seen this at almost all of these demonstrations. And this publicity is of the utmost value, not only to members of the order, but nlaces the work and teachings of this great fraternal institution before the pub lic minld', and its worthiness to' have a part of the public: life. I believe that I can truly say that these degree demonstrations have bassed the experimental stage and that they will nave a great part .nwj the tuture of maning an ,'miciwu Odd Fellowship in this State, and as has already been suggested that, a combination of the district meeting which in many places has .failed for lack of interest, be made with these degree demonstrations and that .they be made a permanent order. , in Odd Fellowship. . It is true that like all new meth ods there is room for improvement and' that improvement will come by experience, but on the whole these demonstrations have more than ful filled expectations and at each point they have been held have brought now lifo and insniration and a lar- .ger vis ion of the true worth of this great order of ours.

March lo. Division oi' opinion within the ranks of the North Caroiimv anti-saloon leaVjivi makes it. extremely doubtf.'ul wheth er the league's announced purpose of opposing candidates Cor the 192'"' legislature who wiil not '.pledge themselves 'VholehearUV.jy to "Lira better enforcement "i' tht eign .!!-. centh amendment" will materialize in this year'?. camrurT..;. Superintendent It. L. Davis has already sounded t:u battle-cry in various parts of the slate where He has spoken recently, ue laring that only men and women who will pledge themselves to making North Caro lina "Lone-dry" will be sapiiui ted in either the primaries or the general elections. Mr. Davis called upon the "Christian patriots" of the state to aid in the mighty crusade. He made it plain that the league would fight it. out on this line if it filled the legislature with Independents and Republicans. The fight had just begun and the leaguers were preparing to circularize every community in the old state urging the folks to "Come over and Help us" uphold Volsteadism when something happened. That some thing still has them all guessing be cause it is now rumored that Su perintendent Davis will be outvoted by his co-workers and that there will be no effort made at r'hand-picking" the 1923 legislature. It is supposed that the superintend ent and the leaguers will iron out their differences in executive session that's where all of the bickering has been done. But the league as an organization will - not with its present advisory boai'd of North Carolina citizens agree to the pro gram mapped out by Superintendent Davis, the only paid member of the league. Politics should be kept out of; the organization's work and getting into the campaign this year in 100 counties which will elect represen tatives to the 192S legislature would certainly be going in for politics of the rankest sort.

TO LOSES IN U, S, SUPREME COURT WILL By the Associated Press. (Washington, March 13. Govern ment officials were represented to day as being without hope that the threatened coal strike can be averted and that the proposed conference between operators 'and miners will be held. It was intimated that goer'-uicnt intervention, at least in the prelimi naries, was not contemplated. Holding that astrike call April 1 is almost inevitable, government of ficials, according to the view today, are chiefly interested in seeing that p. sufficient supply of coal is main tained for the country as a whole. The situation with respect to a sufficient supply of coal , it was stated by this same authority, is not alrming. There is at the surface of coal mines and in stocks at consuming centers, it was declared, enough coal to last the country for 10 weeks, with the prospect it was added that this supply will be augmented from union mines and mines in the union fields, which develoments from la bor reports show are covered by dis trict settlements between the min ers and operators. . The degree of the government's intervention in this situation, a high; official said, must be determined by the extent of the public inconven ience and suffering which is caused, by the strike. It was intimated that the government did not intend to attempt to force the operators into u conference. Secretary of Labor Davis has fiVme as far as he intends to go m that connection, it was said, in pointing out that the government considers the mine operators of the central competitive field to be bound bv provisions of the existing nation al wage contract to enter negotia tions for making a substitute con tract ready for Anril 1 when the old one expires. If the operators refuse on this point, the government considers that it cannot interfere ' until the strike imperils public welfare. KILLED IN WRECK Atlanta, Ga., March 13.
