Washington, IX C, Feb. 13. The unmistakable view of a large propor tion of the nation's youngest voters on the League of Nations as been ex pressed in a poll recently completed, and it indicates without question that a large majority favors -the adoption of the treaty without the proposed destructive Lodge reservations. The poll in question was intercol legiate and expressed the view of the faculties and students of 418 institu tions in every section of the country. The total vote cast was 158,078, di vided as follows: For unqualified ratification 48,232 Against ratification 13,933 For Lodge reservations 27,970 For compromise reservation 61,494 For Knox plan (separating league from treaty) 6,449 Total 158,078 These figures demonstrate the weakness of the opponents of the League of Nations and of the peace treaty as well, as compared with those desiring a ratification that will include the League of Nations, and in such a manner as will not be de structive of any of the standing pro vision adopted unreservedly by all the other big powers. Analysis of Vote. Adding together those voting for the Lodge reservations, the Knox plan and those opposing ratification shows a total of 48,352, or only 120 more than the one group favorins unqualified ratification without the amendment or reservation. The three factions mentioned are all classi fled as being literally opponents of the treaty, because of the destructive features of the so-called Lodge reser vations, and so it is pertinent to point out that this triple alliance of opposi tion polled 13,142 votes less than those favoring compromise reserva tions specifically. The two forces vot ing unqualified ratification and com promise reservations are obviously friends of the treaty and the league, and they totaled 109,726 votes, or 61, 374 votes more than the combined treaty-league opposition. Senator Hitchcock, leader of the fight "for treaty ratification in the upper house of Congress, in present ing; the poll to the Senate, stated that the total of 418 colleges includec both large and small institutions, and that the vote was taken in a careful manner by a bureau in New York, the heads of which conferred as to procedure with both Senators Hitch cock and Lodge. These Senators also furnished the colleges with argu ments substantiating their positions onthe treaty. Senator Lodge argued for the Lodge reservations, while Senator Hitchcock did not argue for unqualified ratification, admitting that "under the conditions reserva tions had become inevitable." The argument of Senator Hitch cock was for "a compromise of reser vations between the destructive reser vations presented by the Senator from Massachusetts, and the inter pretative reservations presented by me in accordance with the instruc tions of the Democratic caucus." With both arguments before them the college faculties and students de cided overwhelmingly in favor of ratifying the peace treaty andin eluding the League of Nations witl reservations that would in no way destroy the effectiveness or purpose of the famous Versailles document.

He says: "Everything he wore was intended to attain the greatest effect. Accord ing to the example of Napoleon he slept in a simple field bed, which, however, did not stand under a tent but in a wonderful villa which had every imaginable protection against airplanes. "His fear of fliers was so igreat that he constantly changed his sleep ing place and created a regular steel safe in which to slep. In April, 1915. five bombs fell in the neighborhood of the imperial villa, ' and at anothar time the court train was attacked, the Kaiser's chief engineer, a cook and several court officials were killed. In the caxden of the Kaiser's villa there was an electrically-lighted dug out with a capacity of 30 men. ok d w mm o sraJijsAecf i&57 The store closes daily at 6 o'clock Announcement from the Junior Shops The new Spring goods are scheduled to arrive any day, in fact some are already here, and for this reason we are desirous of closing out the few remain ing winter garments at much under price.

Only on his birthday was there a better meal, such as caviar and pate de fois gras, roast, rice, fruits, omelette, and choice wine. He usually drank beer or a light Moselle wine. , "By tearing down some of the walls in the villa, the Kaiser had a wonderful bathroom -constructed. Three of the big trees in the neigh borhood he chopped down himself and distributed the wood to the poor families of Charleville. The inhabit ants showed no appreciation for his kindness.
