WILSON INSINCERE
IN TREATY STAN,
STATESSHERMAN
ILLINOIS SENATOR ACCUSES PRES-
IDENT OF INCON-
SISTENCY
FIUME AND SHANTUNG
MATTERS IN DISPUTE
League of Nations Boi ofrOutrage
and Spoilation Doomed from
Birth
Washington, Aug . 4. - Senator
Sherman, Republican, Illinois, in an
address in the senate today on the
peace treaty, charged President Wilson
with inconsistency in opposing Italy's
claims to Fiume while supporting Ja-
pan's claims to Shantung.
"A League of Nations born of re-
pudiation of Italy's claims and , the
spoiliation of China is cursed from
birth with an irredeemable outrage
on the right of two ancient and friend-
ly powers," said Mr. Sherman.
'IFiume is Italian in blood, in lan-
guage, and traditions. Italy is justi-
fied in asking to resume the natural
relations existing between Fiume and
the mother country.
"Shantung is given Japan pursuant
to a secret treaty. It was the pree
of Japan's permission to China to de-
clare war with the Allies. Japan's
sacrifices are unworthy of mention
with those of Italy. Her military forc-
es fought the German in Shantung to
seize the proceeds of Germany's rob-
bery of China.
Plunder Unjustified
"Neither international law nor the
new code of international morals bas-
ed on the treaties can justify the plun-
der of China. The League of Nations
and the peace treaty will be condemn-
ed by the impartial historian for the
sanction of this flagrant crime. Pres-
ident Wilson brands his denunciation
of the secret treaties with insincerity
when he refuses Fiume to Italy after
her heroic sacrifices and delivers Shan-
tung to Japan in obedience of studied
selfishness in the great war."
Jugo-Slaia Experiment
"The new Jugo Slav republic is an
experiment," the Illinois senator said.
"The attempt to fuse such a polyglot
people's characteristic of the indiffer-
ence exhibited in the League of Na-
tions for actual as against ideal con-
ditions. It is a magazine charged with
all the elements of explosion. By this
treaty we leave Jugo Slovia, another
Mexico on Italy's east-northeastern
front. Not by my vote will I so re-
quite our loyal associate for her faith
and sacrifice. Her unrequited facts
and service cry from the Paris con-
ference to American justice."
Statemeni' from Japan
Information reached Washington
today that a formal statement from
the Japanese government as to its in-
tentions regarding the final disposi-
tion of the Shantung peninsula will be
made public soon. The substance of
the statement has nothbeen, disclosed.
The Japanese statement, according
to available information is designed
to clear away all misunderstandings
and doubt as to the purposes of the
Japanese government. Beyond this
nothing with regard to the contents
of the statement could be learned
here.

Describing the conditions of Chin-
ese 'life Dr. C. E. Thompkins, of Fu-
chau, China, in his lecture "The
Yangtse Gorges and Beyond" showed
how by proper medical "are and by
living under proper standards the
Chinese could better their status of
existence. The death rate of the
Chinese was exceedingly large be-
cauiseof lack of suitable knowledge of
how to live, according to Dr. Thomp-
kins.
Ile showed pictures of Fuchau in
which city the houses were crowded
so closely together that there was just
room for a walk between them. Un-
der these conditions, when the tem-
perature is almost 100 degrees and the
humidity nearly makes the atmos-
phere steam, the Chinese children are
brought up with no place to play and
no opportunity to get out in the open.
Dr. Thompkins told of the results
which followed caring for a few of
these children in a kindergarten. The
normal intelligence was almost equal
to that of any other children when
they were raised according to the ac-
cepted methods of this country.
Ascent of the Yangtse
Introductory to this Dr. Thompkins
described the trip up the Yangtse
river t} Fuchau and illustrated the
journey with slides. Boats, towed by
as many as 40 cr 50 men, conduct the
traveler up the Yangtse river, which
is swift and runs through many
gorges. The journey in these primi-
tive boats takes as long as six weeks
going up, but the descent takes only
two weeks.
Occasionally a steam boat can be
taken, said Dr. Thompkins, but not
very often. The ascent by thq tow
boat is dangerous at times, for the
trip through the rapids often results
in the boat being overturned or
crashed on the rocks. Careful guid-
ance is necessary to avoid all mishaps.
Many Difficulties
Ile told of the many difficulties in-
volved in making the trip and showed
how the Chinese adapted themselves
to conditions to overcome the ob-
stacles. Dr. Thompkins showed pic-
tures of the Chinese villages, encount-
ered on the voyage, and described
how the inhabitants lived in movable
huts, so that when the river rose they
might leave for higher ground.
During the 'summer months the
Yangtse rises as much as 100 feet and
during this time the largest steam
boats often find difficulty in passing
the rapids, said Dr. Thompkins. Fol-
lowing his description of the ascent
up the Yangtse, Dr. Thompkins show-
ed views of the more inland terri-
tory.

BRITISH HOLD NAVAL PAGEANT
COMNEMORATING MOBILIZATION
London, Aug. 4.-The important role
played by the British sea services dur-
ing the war was commemorated today
by a naval pageant on the Thames, the
day marking the fifth anniversary of
the mobilization of the fleet. Tower
bridge was the point selected for the
start of the five mile prbcession. .
As the procession moved along the
Thames the huge bank holiday crowds
which lined the embankments, swarm-
ed on the bridges and perched upon
railings and the roofs of houses and
in trees on both sides of the river, gave
a tumultuous greeting.
The progress of King George in the
royal barge was marked by particular
attention, the noise culminating as the
barge reached the Cadogan pier i4
Chelsea, opposite Battersea park,
where the king disembarked and was
received by the admiralty and civic
officials.
NAVAL LIEUTENANT ADMITS
GUILT IN $18,000 GRAFT
New York, Aug. 4.-The court mar-
tial appointed to try Lieut. Benoit J.
Ellert, U. S. N., accused of accepting
$18,000 in bribes to provide comfort-
able berths for young men of draft
age, seeking to escape service over-
seas during the war, today accepted
his plea of guilty to six specificatoins
of the 51 against him.
Those remaining were dropped upon
telegraphic instructions from Assis-
tant Secretary of the Navy Franklin
D. Roosevelt.
At least two more naval officers and
perhaps a dozen enlisted men will be
brought up on charges similar to
those made against Ellert, it is said.
GERMANS PLAN"TO BURN
TWENTY-FOUR BIG BALLOONS
Coblenz, Sunday, Aug. 3.-ByCour-
ier to Paris.-Germans in charge of
24 Zeppelins near Berlin have threat-
ened to burn them rather than deliver
them to the Allies as required by the
peace treaty, according to information
obtained by the American army auth-
orities here. The Zeppelins are about
25 tons capacity and can fly from Ber-
lin to San Francisco, according to
German sources. Several were built
to carry 40 persons.
