20.000,000 MEET ID
OBOE BiTIFICiTIOK
WASHINGTON. D. C.—With the
announced purpose of seeking ways
and means for the early ratification
of peace, a conference which dele
gates said represented 20.000.000
Americans, began here this week.
Oscar Straus, former secretary of
commerce and labor in the cabinet
of President Roosevelt, presided as
chairman. and national organiza
tions represented included tlie Amer
ican Federation of Labor, the League
to Enforce Peace, National Advertis
ing Clubs of America. Farmers’ Al
liance, Women’s Christian Temper
ance Union and World Peace Founda
tion. Among the delegates were
Herbert Houston, of the National
Advertising clubs. and Matthew
Well and Frank Morrison, of the Fed
eration of Labor.
Beginning with a joint conference
the meeting is expected to develop
into a select committee of five, who
would present the decisions reached
to Democratic and Republican lead
ers in the senate. The committee
also would call at the White House
for the same purpose.
A petition was prepared by the
conference, to be presented to Sena
tors Lodge _and Hitchcock, urging
ratification as soon as possible, with
only such reservations as would not
nullify the League of Nations.
League Meeting Called
First meeting of the council of
the I.eague of Nations was helrl
in Paris Friday beginning at 10:30
o'clock in the morning. The call
for the assembly was issued in ac
cordance with the terms of the Ver
sailles treaty by President Wilson
whom the treaty-makers designated
for that duty. It went to the am
bassadors of the entente nations
which have ratified the treaty and
will not be made public until it has
been received from them by theii'
governments. The* call is said to
have been brief.
The most important business to
come before the initial meeting of
the council will be that of setting
up the various commissions upon
which will devolve the task of carry
ing out certain provisions of the
treaty.
COUNCIL GIVES AMERICA
TWO PER CENT OF SHIPS
PARIS. France. —The supreme
council of the peace conference has
notified Hugh Wallace. American
ambassador, that its decision to
award the Cnited States only two
per cent of the German shipping to
be distributed among itl e allied and
associated powers was unchanged.
Mr. Wallace immediately replied
that the United States Preferred to
waive its claim entirely.
Following these actions the council
virtually passed out of existence.
COAL HEARINGS
IN MANY CITIES
NOW PROBABLE
WASHINGTON, -an. 14.—Investi
gation of the underlying causes of
the recent coal strike was in
sWiftg today with both operators and
miners co-operating xvith the coal
strike settlement commission. Each
day from 3:30 a. m. to 1:30 p. m. the
commissioners will hear the argu
ments of the principals to the contro
versy in an effort to reach a satis
factory agreement on wages and
Working conditions for the miners !
in the bitumiuous fields.
Hearings in manjf cities in the coal i
regions were planned today by the '
commission. The program of travel- *
ing now under consideration would !
prolong the investigation several i
months.
Places where hearings would be
held, should the commission decide to
make such an. exhaustive survey,
would include Altoona, Kittanning,
Somerset and Pittsburg, Pa.; Spring
fifield and Franklin county, Ill.; Terre
Haute and Evansville, Ind.: Zanes
ville and Porthmouth. Ohio; Fair
mont, Charleston, Logan. Bluefield
and Huntington, W. Va.; Paducah.
Ky.; Birmingham. Ala.; Jellico.
Tenn.: St. Louis and Kansas City.
Mo.: Topeka. Kas.; Des Moines. Iowa:
Pueblo, and Trinidad, Col.; G-oilup
and Baton. N. M.: McAlester, Okla.,
and Fort Smith, Ark.
The commission today heard mine
union leaders read into the record
their grievances. Operators are ex
pected to follow with a long presen
tation of their case. At present the
commission is confining itself to the
differences between workers ahd op
erators in the central competitive
field.
That the miners are prolonging the
inquiry by asking for detailed inves
tigations. for the purpose of making
the commission a perpetual body, is
the charge of operators.
Savings accounts of, com
piled from many districts, will be
presented by operators, to refute the
assertion that miners have been poor
ly paid. Their statistics show, they
say, that in many cases miners in
creased their 1919’savings from 100
to 200 per cent over 1918 savings.

Accounts of the hardships, indigni

in Mexico.

Wood Free to Run
For Presidency and
Keep Army Rank
W ASHINGTON, D. C. -- Major
G eneral Leonard Wood, candidate for
the presidency on the Republican
ticket, can remain in the army until
his possible election or inauguration
as president, if he so desires, Secre
tary Baker made it plain.
Following up his previous ruling
that General Wood and General
Pershing- would ffdt have to resign
their commissions to become can
didates for the presidency, Mr. Baker
said that should General Wood
be nominated by the Republican con
vention and enter into an active cam
paign throughout the country he did
not hold that even then it would be
obligatory upon him to leave the
army.
Mr. Baker suggested that should
General Wood enter ifitd such an
active campaign that his duties as
commander of the central department
of the army might be neglected, he
could apply tor leave. This leaves
General Wood free to hold his army
post until his possible election ot
to continue in the service should he
be defeated.
This attitude of Secretary Baker
is understood to be due to a desire
to give General Wood an absolutely
“free rein” in his candidacy for pres
ident. in older that the war depart
ment cannot be charged with par
tisan political action. It is under
stood* Mr. Baker’s opinion Us that
should he lay down any ruling that
General Wood would have to resign
at q.ny statedpoint in his campaign,
he> a . Democrat, undoubtedly would
be charged with partisanship. Mr.
Baker ponted out that there were
several precedents for his contention
that General Wood does not have to
relinquish his army commission.

question of ratifying the Susan B.

which is agitating the legislature.
He advocated a constituional con
vention for the adoption of a system
of new organic law for the state.
The present constitution was adopt
ed in 1895 and there are progressive
needs which are throttled by the con
stitution, he said.
A resolution placing the question
in a referendum election in Novem

The hone of a nimnroved highway
system being adopted by the general

without a sigh for its demise. The
motion of Mr. Bradford, of York, to
continue the bill until July* 1920 war
carried without a dissenting vote
or a sigh of regret. This means
that all proposed improved highway
legislation will have to run the
length of the general assembly.
The bill killed was the Christen

a debate in the Closing hours of

WOMEN WILL
NOT BE FLOGGED
IN CITY PRISON
The whipping of women prisoners
at the city stocßade has been stop
ped. Orders to this effect were is
sued to Superintendent T. B. Lan
ford by the prison committee of the
city council at a special meeting of
the. committee,
gqU’cidept with this development
came the announcement from J. 'I.
Kelley, acting chairman of. tfte state
/boai'd; of public welfare, that the
’ board"would be called to meet in
'Atlanta in the near future to consid
er not only the wh pping of prison
ers in city stockades, but also In
the j convict camps throughout the
state ot" (leorgia.
Mr. Kelley, with Philip Weltnei
counsel for the board, made ’a pre
liminary inspection of the. city stock
ade Monday afternoon for the pur
pose of determining whe'her the
lioard should be called together to
take action on the matter. Whip
ping- of prisoners to maintain discip
line is permitted under the state law
and it is understood that the board
will sponsor a bill at the next ses
sion of the legislature expressly pro
hibiting- flogging of prisoners.
No formal probe of conditions at
the city prison was attempted at.
Monday’s hearjng in view of the fact
that a councilmanic investigation
will be asked at the meeting- of coun
cil next Monday afternoon.
The representatives of the state
board visited every department and
ward of the city prison, talking with
.several of the prisoners and making
a- rather careful inspection of the
“bucking chair” in which prisoners
are flogged. Mr. Kelley, in fact, al
lowed himself to be strapped in the
chair, although the secondary stage
of the proceeding was not carried
out. The heavy leather strap used
mt administering corporal punish
ment also was inspected.
Intestinal Disease
Spreads Over Southwest
KANSAS CITY. Mo.—" Whether
the mysterious intestinal mala
dy which has affected several
hundred persons in Kansas and Ok
lahoma, exists in other communities
of , the southwest, was a matter ot'
speculation this week here. Pending
reports, officials of the two states
were trying to identify the disease
and employ means of checking its
spread.
Topeka, Kan., and Muskogee, Okla.,
apparently were the worst sufferers.
At Topeka 200 cares "had been re
ported and unofficial estimates placed
the number at. 1,000. Many school
children were among those ill. At
Muscogee there were about 300 cases.
No fatalities were reported at
either place and the death list from
the malady remained at four, all at
Skiatook the little Oklahoma town,
where it first became prevalent. The
situation at Skiatook was believed to
be under control, however.

and to defend Europe from the in
roads of the great yellow race. In
this you will always find me on your
side ready to help you as best I
can. You nave well understood that
call of Providence and have quickly
grasped the moment; it is of im
mense political and historical value
and Ynttch good will come of it.
“1 -shall with interest await the
further development of our action
and hope that, just as I will gladly
help you to settle the question of
eventual annexations of portions of
territory for Russia, you will kindly
see that Germany may also, be able
to acquire a port somewhere where
it does not “gene” you. I am afraid
that, as the Norwegians are in a
state bordering on insanity, I may
not be able to make my summer tour
there, but shall have to cruise about
on the Swedish coast of the Batlic.
Should that be the case, could not
we have a meeting somewhere for
our two yachts where it suits you
and have a quiet little chat between
ourselves? It would be so nice. Now
good-by. dearest Nicky; give my best
love to Alix and respectful compli
ments to your mamma, from ever
your most devoted and affectionate
friend, WILLY.”
P. S.- —Radolin is quite “einge
weight” in all my ideas 1 just de
veloped to you.
(Prince Radolin went to the czar -3
capital as the German ambassador
to Russia. The war between Unimt
;-.nd Japan bad lately reached its end
when this letter was writtf-h. On
April 17 Japan and China signed a
treaty of peace in which Chfna ced
ed .Liaotung peninsula and the is
land of Formosa to Japan, agreed
to pay a heavy indemnity and con
ceded the independence of Korea.
Russia, Germany an France imme
diately protested the cession of the
Liaotung peninsular and brought
such pressure to bear on Japan that
this important part of the spoils was
given up.)

“Dearest Nicky: My journey iu
Sweden and along its shores brings
me opposite to your shores and to
your bucn retiro, and I cannot let
this moment pass, when I am only
a short cruise away from you, with
out sending you a line, as I shall
net unhappily be able to meet you
cn the salty brine. Let me once more
thank you with all my heart for the
sending of those splendid ships of
yours, which so ably and powerfully
represented the Russian navy at
Kiel. Alexei was .kindness and
joviality itself and did everything in
his power to make intercourse with
our Russian comrades everything
that could be wished for. Your
kind permission to place him in a
la suite of our navy made my ot'
ficers very proud and seemed to
have given him pleasure. 1 had the
opportunity of some serious talk
about eastern Asian affairs with
Alexei and also his good old Baron
Schilling, who was a very great
triend of my' grandfather’s. He will,
l suppose, already have reported to
you about it.
“J was glad to be able to show how
cur interests were entwined in the
far east, that my- ships had been
ordered to second yours in case of
need when things looked doubtful,
that Europe had to be thankful to
you that you so quickly' had per
ceived the great future for Russia in
the cultivation of Asia and in the
defense of the cross and the old
Christian European culture against
the inroads of the Mongols and
Buddhism, that it was natural that
if Russia was engaged in this tre
mendous work you wished to have
Europe quiet and your back free;
and that it was natural and without
doubt that this would be my task
and that I would let’ nobody try ko
BOTH OLD PARTIES
CLAIM CREDIT FOR
EXPENSE CUTTING
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—Leaders
of both parties in congress today
were striving to capture credit for '
cutting down government expenses. ,
Republican leaders in the house ;
expect to accomplish such drastic I
economies that the G. O. P. can go !
before the country in November with
the pledge that if they are returned i
to power, government expenditures .
within a short time can be reduced I
to the- pre-v.-ar maximurrb es $1,250,-
000.000 a year, Representative Fess,
chairman of the Republican congres
sional campaign committee, declared
today.
Word evidently has gone out to
all Democratic heads of departments
to show the voters that expenses are
being cut down. This i” evidenced
by the message the shipping board
sent congress, asking that its esti
mates for next year be reduced
$125,000,000. Another accomplish
ment to which Democrats point is
that the $1,000,000,000 wheat guar
antee fund voted the United State
Grain corporation will be turned ■
back to the treasury untouched next
June when control of wheat is ex- |
pected to end.
Republican Leader Mondell declar
ed today- that reduction in taxes
can only come through decrease in
government spending, and that the
Republicans propose to force this.
With iower taxes, particularly those
on excess profits, Mr. Mondell be
lieves prices in general will go down.
Secretary of the Treasury Glass i
recently warned congress that if
large appropriations were authorized ;
in addition to those provided for in
the annual estimates another Liberty ’
Loan would be necessary. At the l
same time he pointed out that the j
administration already has been able ■
to make a small reduction in the
war debt.
Republican leaders, particularly in
the house, have been proclaiming •
that unless the administration shows ;
greater economy a huge deficit, in j
addition to the war debt, will face |
the nation on June 30, 1921, the end
of the next fiscal year.
Mr. Mondell and other Republican
house leaders have announced that
the $5,000,000,000 estimates of Mr.
Glass for the next fiscal year will |
be reduced almost $1,500,000,000. Mr. I
Mondell has taken occasion several !
times to point out that the Republi- j
cans during the special session re- <
duced administration estimates near- |
ly $900,000,000.

An Abuse of Hospitality
“One incident took place of Which
1 think 1 ought to tell you, as'l am
quite certain that it happened with
out Alexei’s knowledge, but having
become known among our officers
created a very painful impression.
On board the Grossiaschtschy—the
vessel which I invited Admiral
Skrydlow and his captains to pass
the canal with—two engineer officers
were secretly embarked which had
not been announced to our authori
ties. The oldest was Colonel Bubnow.
These, in conjunction with a lieuten
ant who is specially trained for the
purpose and who had a large ap
paratus, toog photographs of our
forts and batteries, made notes ami
sketches all along the road and final
ly—when Skrydlow saw that my.
naval attache was rather astonished
to see quite strange people on the
ship—were introduced to him as two
directors of waterworks and water
ways! At Kiel Bubnow’s bearing be
came so “suspecte” that police arid
gendarmes followed him. He went
about in plain clothes and was prowl
ing about the fortifications, which
was strictly forbidden to strangers!
“Now I think this is not quite
fair, if you are invited as guest at
such a fete in a foreign country,
which without Reserve throws open
its gates to you and lets you into its
war harbor, to abuse of hospitality
in this manner, to try to spy out your
friend, and that even under assumed
character! The consequence is that
this will make people very careful
with Russian warships and create
uneasy feelings which I so deplore
find hope to overcome. Pray excuse
my mentioning- this matter, but T
thought it better to tell you directly
instead of making diplomatic notes,
etc., as you know how I feel for
you and Russia. But 1 do wish to
have every difficulty which could
arise Jn the work of drawing our
countries closer together removed
before it strikes root.
“Good-by. dearest Nicky, my best
love to Alix and to you, with wishes
for a quiet summer and a nice little
boy to come, believe me. dear Nicky,
“Ever your most affectionate,
friend and cousin. WILLY'.”
