URGE RATIFICATION OF PEACE TREATY

President-Emeritus William Jewett Tucker, President Ernest Martin Hopkins, and Professor James F. Colby were among the residents of New Hampshire who signed the petition sent the Senate in September by prominent Americans urging that the treaty of peace be ratified. Two hundred and fifty names, some from nearly every state, were attached to the petition. Governors, college presidents and teachers, and men prominent in law, finance, commerce and railroading were among those who signed. Eagerness for the war to be terminated definitely was the main reason given in the petition for the signers' appeal.
