LEXINGTON, YA.. Sept. 23.?Gen- |
erul E. W. Nichols, superintendent of j
the Virginia Military Institute, an- '
nounccd today that the corps of cadets j
and tactical staff would participate in*
the parade and other ceremonies at
tending fhe unveiling of the Stonewall
Jackson statue in Richmond on Oc
tober 11.
In spite of the. fact that more than
200 of the cadets are new. they have,
since the opening of the session two
weeks ago. become remarkably adept
in drills and maneuvers, and the corps
will undoubtedly be in trim by October
11 to make rh" sore of impression that
the corps always makes on public oc
casions.
General Nichols with his staff will
lead the cadet battalion in the pa
rade.
On Saturday an impressive ceremony
attended the. unfurling of the nation- ?
al and State colors from two massive i
flag pofes recently erected, .one on
either side of the Stonewall Jackson
Statue, which stands at the head of
the parade ground in front of Lin:
Jackson Arch of barracks. The flags
are of great size and very beauti
ful.
The corps of cadets marched in mass
formation the full length of the parade
ground and were then drawn up di
rectly in front of t'he Jackson statue.
As Lhe flags were unfurled the in
stitute band played the national an
them.
There followed a review of the corps
by the board of visitors. The open
ing hops being in progress, there was
an unusually large number of people
presf nt.
The flag poles are the gift of mem
bers of thr West Virginia Chapter of
the V. M*. I. Alumni Association.
The board of visitors met on Sat
urday to consider routine and budget
matters.
FRENCH NOW DEMANDING
TREATY RESERVATIONS

PARIS, Sept. L'3.?The .debate in the
French Parliament on the treaty of
peace with Germany is remarkable in '
the clear conception and just criticism j
displayed by the nation's represent.*- ;
tives.
Our government of today and that
o'. tomorrow will conic out of this dis- :
cussion stronger, both against tier-'
many and in its relations with our
allies and associates, together with
whom it soon hjust-'begin a revision
of the Versailles treaty.
Revision is inevitable, so the sooner
we have it the better. The. French
government has received an impera
tive assignment from the chamber and
it is obliged to enter immediate!v into
negotiations with our allies and asso
ciate with a view to clarlfjlng the
obscurc points in the treat v. These
are:
1. Germany's disarmament. As the
treaty reads now. Germany, by an in
terpretation of her own, might increase
the. size, of her army. All France is
alarmed at this prospect.
"J. It is necessary I lat priority be i
'4<'. en France and Relgiuni in t'he mat- 1
tir of indemnity, so as to enable both I
? oun:ries to rebuild their devastated
districts.
Finally, .the Chamber unanimously I
asked the government to obtain aii
international financial guarantee, a
measure which should protect credit
and exchange.
The treaty will he ratified, but not
without reservations, ami that is a
good tin inc. For our nation it will he .
a tine demonstration of our solidarity,
and for the enemy it will be a fine ox- i
presslon of ..Ur sentiments a:.* an
indication of our future action.
The treaty, as it was compiled hv (
! ne peace conference, does not satisfy ?
France, hut it will satisfy France if ,
amended In accordance with the wishes
o! the French Parliament.

served notice on the committee the j
anti-strike provision, if enacted as law. j
would not be obeyed.
"With full sen so of my responsl- j
bility." he told Senators. "I say that 1
should have no more hesitancy about
part Icipnt inn in a st rikc after its |>as- I
sage than 1 do now. It wouldn't stop
strikes: it would just make law- 1
l.< ren ke rs."
There was considerable reference t,,:
the Plumb plfin. which provides for'l
government ownership of the railroads
and joint operation l>v the public and
employees, when its author opened his
statement. He declared that strikes
would be beneficial in the future, be
cause workers would use them to force
down prices instead of merely to se
cure a greater share of the cost of
production, and allowing: prices to in
crease. I'u/.zled senatorial questioners
deilt t some length with th's theory,
bui diil not shake his conclusion. '
likewise. Mr. IMumb made reference
to approaching revolution should "con
servative labor forces? not secure con
cessions of the type embodied in his
plan, ami this occasioned more <iuery
inir.
Mr. Stone attacked the Cummins bill
in its entirely. Its committee on
wants and working conditions, he said,
was a "mere bluff"; it cinched "bureau
cratic control" on the roads: it "dis
ti rted procedure of the lutersnie
t'ommerce Commission ?!> order to Jive
the commission a mandate t > lix rat s
on the b.>sis of inflated capitalization."
and it hid a transportation board "Just
to take the blame oft' guilty railroad
ollieials for deny inn rights to labor."
"I'ranklv vicious." he said, were it*
provisions against strikes in inter
state commerce. It contained "an itii
plied rep al of the Adamson eight
hf tir bin." and its division of railroad
systems" into twenty-live or thirty ^\s
lems was "illogical and artificial."
"i'ln sorry I haven't had 'inie to so
more, fully into study of^it." he s;u?|.
m closing his analysis and a roar ? f
lauuhter swept the committ?o room.
NO DANGER OF FOOD

the judgment of statesmen and ex
perts participating in the sessions of
tin- allied supreme economic council
lie re.
<!. II, Roberts, the British food con
trol lor, said today:
"With sulllelcnt eare and proper dls
-?t ril?n t ion, the food problem could be
met satisfactorily in the coming win
ter. . Transport in the countries tliat
have been at war have, in some cases,
entirely broken down, and this natural
ly binders distribution.
??Provided that it is possible to re
organize the transport systems and
the countries are able to pay the price,
there will be no food scarcity as far
as can lie seen now. The hi.nil cost of
living Is mainly a matter of produc
tion. l-'ive years of war have ereated
a state of stringency, and. therefore,
there is lack of goods to export ami
e:; chii !?*ic for the much-needed food.
Britain linds this is the reason for
the high prices.
"Increased production and improved
transportation conditions are the only
means by \vhich the purchasing value
of money can be restored to normal.
.\merici is the only near by country
with surpluses ready for expoitation
and should be in close touch with the
measures taken to feed Europe.
