SENATE CONDITIONS
President Coolidge Served
Formal Notice to That
Effect at Kan&s City.
Mo., Today.
HIS POSITION
IS MADE CLEAR
Calls for Conscription of
Capital in Times of War
as Well as That of Man j
Power.
Kansas Oily. Mo„ Nov. 11 —OW— J
President Coolidge served formal no-,
tior her.’ today that the United State*!
"■ould adhere to Ibo Word Court only i
on the conditions laid down by t'jo
Senate.
The position of the Chiff Rxeen
tivo. who from the tirst of his ad
ministration had urged American
momSemhlp in the ooutt. was made
clear in au Armistice Day speech in
which he discussed world problems
and called formally for the first time
for conscription of capital as well as
man power in time of war.
The address was in addition of the
Liberty Memorial, erected by the peo
ple of this city in memory of its citl-1
Jsens who served in the World War.
Delivered at the honr when right
years ago the Armistice went into ef
fect, it was devoted to a discussion
of problems arising out of the war
with a restating of the imsitkm of
the Washington government on many
questions of world interest while men
tion was made of national antagon
isms against this country.
“A Permanent Court of Interna
tiona! Justice has been established,’’
the President said in setting forth
his position on the World Court, "to
which nations may voluntarily resort
hi an adjudication of 'their cjiffer
enees. It has been subject to much
misrepresentation, whieh has result
ed in much misWuiception Os its prin
ciples and objects among our (ample
L have advocated ao'iereucc to such a
dtjgg hy this nation on condition that
or treaty creating H be
amended to meet our views. The
Senate hk» adopted a resolution top
that purpose.
’ Whijf tlit w.cmtal. Involved v«n
not yet he said lO' have made a final
determination, and from most of them
no answer has been 'received many of
them have indicated tat ttiey are un
willing to concur in the conditions
adopted by the resolution of the Sen
ate. While no final decision ran be |
made by our government until final
answers are received the situation has
been sufficiently developed so that I
feel warranted in saying that J do
not intend to ask the Senate to modi;
fy ita position. Ido not believe the*
Senate would take favorable action
on any such proposal, and unless the
requirements of the Senate resolution
are met by the ol’.ier interested na
tions I can see no prospect of this
country adhering to the court.”
In speaking or censceptton, Mr.
Coolidge said that it “is more and
more becoming the oonrietipn of stu
dents of adequate defense that in time
of national peril the government
should be clothed with authority to
call into its service nil of its man
power and all of its property under
such terms and conditions that it may
eompletely avoid making a sacrifice of
one and a profiteer of another.”
"To expose some men on the perils
of rue battlefield while others are left
to reap large gains from the distress
of their country is not in harmony
with our ideal of equality,’ he. said.
"Any future policy of conscription
should bp all inclusive, applicable in
its terms to the entire personnel and
the entire wealth of the whole na
tion.” - ,
After asserting that the Armistice
of 1918 "did not mark the end of the
■war. for the end is not yet,” Mr.
Coolidge declared for adequaffi mili
tary, naval and aviation preparedness
while he emphaained that the .United
States does not seek to be a military
power and “cherishes no imphrigisMe
designs.” At the same time, he re
iterated the desire of the Washington
government for a lessening oif com
petitive armaments.
"We have at last entered into
treaties with the great powers,” he
said, "eliminating to a large degree
competition in naval armaments. We
are engaged in negotiations to broad
en and extend this humane and en
lightened policy and are willing to
make reasonable sacrifices to secure
its further adoption.” • >
In mentioning the war debts owed
the United States by foreign coun
tries and their adjustment, Mr. Cool
idge again emphasised that "modera
tion is a mutual international obliga
tion.”
"Our government,” he said in this
connection, "has steadily maintained
the policy of the recognition and the
sanctity of international obligations
nhd the performance of the interna
tional covenants. It has not be
lieved that the world, economically,
financially, or morally, could reat tip
on any other secure foundation. But
such s policy does not include cgtor- 1
tlon or opresslon. z z We have there
fore undertaken to deal with other
countries in accordance Ewlth these
principles, believing that their appti-°
cation la for the welfare of the world

Reports that Europe dislike Amer

American government are right.” and
; that he was "willing to intrust to
others the full responsibility for the
results of their own behavior.”
"If we are to have peace,” tie as
serted, "we are to live in accordance
with the dictates of a higher life.
We shall avoid any national spirit of
suspicion, distrust and hatred toward
other nations. The Old World has
for generations indulged itself in this
form of luxury. The results have
been ruinous. It is not for us who
are more fortunately circumstanced to
pass judgment upon those who are
less favored. In riieir place we might
bare done worse. Hut it is our duty

I "While we.can assume no responsi

to know that in the sober and in

probably hold the place of a favored

suffering and the sacrifices of the
people of our sister nations, and to
extend to them at ail times our pa
tience, our sympathy and such help
Ks we believe will enable .them to be
restored to a sound and prosperous
condition.”
There was little need to inquire
how the World War began. Mr. Cool
idge said in discussing the conflict.
“Nothing is to be gained rrom crim
inations and recriminations,’’ he de
clared. “We arc attempting to re
store the world to a state of better
understanding and amity. We can
even leave to others the discussion of
who won the war. It is enough for
us to know that the side on which we
fought was victorious.”

Washington, Nov. 11.—OP)—The
1 world paused a moment today in the
frenzied struggle for existence and
aggrandisement to recollect Mint ex
actly oight years ago there had come
[the word from France that gripped
linen's hearts as no other message
| -cit’d hnve done.
I The great war was over—the roar-
I in* destroying guns stilled nt last.
Alt ecstasy of rejoicing ami triumph
had followed. In that first wild cele
bration there was no thought of the
perplextities that were to beset the
pathways of peace. What mattered
it. the boys were coming home?
They came, and grateful nations
poured out a lavish greeting to gal
lant sons. The spoils of glory due
to valor were showered upon them
in every city and hamlet.
Then eniue one home to American.
I dead and unknown, who could not
| hear the cheering. About him cett
j tered such n majestic tribute to all
] those who lay dead in France, as the
price of victory, that it gave Arnr's
itiee Day a new and solemn meaning
'to all Americans.
• Today, as always, the tomb of the
' Unknown Soldier in Arlington feme
jtery was the heart of the American
! observance of Armistice Day. In the
j words of Congress and of the Presi
| dent's proclamation it typified "our
| gratitude for pence and our desire for
■ the continuance of friendly relations
| with ail other people.”
In other countries two ceremonies
centered about the tomb of the Un
known. Representatives of the fnr
flitng dominions of tvie British Empire
in conference at London joined in
! England’s tribute to the day. George,
the l’rincc of Wales and\the Duke
of Yofk la Id wreiftthnrr t»e foot of
the cenotaph of England's unknown.
A wreath of maple leaves brought
from the Kingmere cottage of Pre
mier MacKenzie near Ottawa, and in
terwoven with roses -and chrysanthe
mums formed Canada's tribute.
In Poland great ceremonies were ar
ranged to eelebrate, both Armistice
D«y, a national holiday, and the an
niversary of Cue release of Marshal
Pilsudsky from German captivity.
Out of the new significance of the
day as sacred to those who did not
come back living from France has
grown the simple observance all over
the nation which marks Armistice
Day.
Every where it wus guided b.v the
desire of each community as in Mis
souri it centered about the flaming
memorial of Missouri's war dead at
Kansas City, where President Cool
idge went to voice the will of his
countrymen for pence and friendship
with all people.
The duty alone could have drawn
him away from his usuui Armistice
Dny journey to Arlington to lay a
wreath in person on the tomb/ of the
Unknown.
Army comrades of the war dead ev
erywhere paid honors. Flags were at
half staff. Troops were ordered drawn
up in silenee to stand rigidly for a
minute at 11 o’clock, the hour of the
armistice right years ago. Trie na
tional salute of 21 guns was decreed
for all saluting posts. Throughout
the nation memorial services befitting
the day marked gatherings in schools
and churches and the momentary halt
and silent tribute to the meaning of
the day was interwoven even with
prosaic business activities in many
scattered industries.

questions from the state today cover

he was arraigned on the first of
eighteen indictments charging him
with larceny after trust, embezzle
ment and other criminal offences in
connection with the failure of the
liank. The entering of the plea set
aside all the issues until the ques

VALI E OF THE STATE’S
MINERAL PRODI CTS
Marked Increases Through the Great
er Cse of Stone and Clay.
Tribune- BurVqiii
4 Sir Walter Hofei
'Raleigh Nov. 1 r,—Marked lnevmses
in the value of minerals produced in
North Carolina during recent years
have arisen through a greater utiliza
tion of stone and clay products in
cluding kaolins and shale, a report to
the department of conservation anil
development from Dr. J. S. Studkey
today reveals.
Still further possibilities in the
commercial uses of slays and shale
for fire proofing face brick and va
rious types and qualities of tiles are
highly attractive. The department is
constantly investigating and reporting
Upon mineral resources with the view
of providing data for industrial de
velopment..
In 1020 the value of mineral prod
ucts was the greatest up to that time
in the history of tile state and
amounted to 88.100,703. In 1925 a
new high record for mineral produc
tion value amounting to $11,042,517
was set. The 1924 mineral produc
tion had a value of $10,163,435. The
slight decrease in the value of the
1924 mineral production as compared
with that of 192:? was due to a falling
iftf in the amount of Crushed ston'e
ami gravel used for road work and
also to a decrease in the price of
kaolin ami mica.
Although a large amount of in
vestigations of geological formations
of the state has been done, from aw
economic as well as scientific point of
view there is a great.amount of study
still needed, and which would, in all
probability, yield good returns on the
investment.
