COMMITTEE BUSY
ON NEW TREATIES
ATTEMPT IS NOW ON TO CONSOL
IDATE ALL TREATY OPPONENTS
INTO UNITED MACHINE
STORM CLOUDS GATHERING
Proposed Added Clauses Will Have To
Be Discussed In Committee,
Lengthening Delay
Washington.—Despite the pressure
of both republican and democratic sen
ate leaders for prompt action, con
troversies are developing within the
foreign relations committee which may
lead to a long discussion of the arms
conference treaties before any of them
is brought to the senate floor for
ratification.
Some members of the committee
predicted that the effort to secure a
detailed explanation of the negotia
tions leading up to the four-power
Pacific treaty would in itself become
an element of considerable delay. Af
terward at least four proposed reser
vations to this treaty, which is first
on the list, seem likely to come before
the committee before it goes on to the
other seven conference agreements
that await senate approval.
The party leaders on both sides
of the chamber are satisfied that the
disagreements and delays encountered
will in no way endanger ratification
of the treaties, but they are watching
with manifest interest the attempt
now in progress to consolidate into a
fighting machine all the safe elements
who are dissatisfied with the results
of the W T ashington negotiations. Thus
far there is no evidence that any close
ly-knit anti-treaty ‘‘bloc’’ has been at
tained.
The first test of strength in the tom
mittee may come during the coming
week over a proposal to further pur
sue the quest for detailed informa
tion regarding the four-power treaty
negotiations. President Harding is ex
pected to inform- the senate, in re
sponse to its resolutions of inquiry, that
no minutes of the negotiations were
kept. But it was indicated that such
a reply might not be acceptable to
some committee members and that an
effort might be made to summon Sec
retary Hughes, the American delega
tion head, home from Bermuda, where
he has gone for a rest.
LANDIS QUITS JOB
ON FEDERAL BENCH
Famous Judge Will Devote His Entire
Time To Work As Supreme Arbi
ter Os Baseball
Chicago.—Judge Kennesaw Moun
tain Landis will end his seventeen
, years’ service on the federal bench
March 1 to devote his entire time to
his duties as national commissioner of
baseball, he announced when he for
warded his resignation to President
Harding. For fifteen months Judge
Landis has held both positions, draw
ing $50,000 a year from organized
baseball, less the $7,500 salary he re
ceived as federal judge. At the time
he took up his duties as baseball dic
tator, he was offered a contract for
$50,000 a year, but insisted that as
long as he remained on the bench the
amount of his salary as judge be de
ducted from the total paid him by
baseball. The contract was for seven
years.
Miners Are Demanding Six-Hour Day
Indianapolis.—Renewal of the de
mand of the union coal miners for a
six-hour day, five day week, a pro
posal that was made before the 1919
strike, was adopted by the convention
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica as a part of the policy the union
will seek to have included in new
wage agreements, effective April 1.
This demand had the united opposition
of union’s leaders, including all dis
trict presidents.
Urges Protection For The Unwary
New York.—Though hundreds of
complaints of stock swindling through
the operation of bucketshops have been
received and indictments returned
against nearly a score of brokers, Dis
trict Attorney Blanton expresses the
belief that not 10 per cent of the
fraud victims had reported their
losses.
Coal Production Dropped in 1921
Washington—Decrease of more
than 200,000„000 tons in the world’s
production of coal in 1921 compared
with the output in 1920, was noted
in a statement on mining activities
recently issued by the United States
geological survey. From reports so
far received, the statement says, the
total world output of coal last year
was 1,100,000,000 metric tons, with
France and Germany the only nations
showing an increased production. The
British strike and world's wide depres
sion are named as chief factors.
Millionairess To Wed Riding Master
Chicago.—Harold F. McCormick,
president of the International Harves
ter company, has formally announced
the engagement of his daughter, Ma
thilde, aged 16, to Max Oser, 48-year- |
old proprietor of a Berne, Switzerland,
rtding academy. The announcement,
following a day of conference among
the family, was issued through the
butler at the home of Mrs. Cyrus Mc-
Cormick, mother of the harvester
president, and no intimation will be
made as to when the wedding will be
celebrated
| Taffeta Triumphs Anew; j

Iflitlillil^iiiiiiiiiiiiiii^
THERE Is something so unpreten
tious and appealing about taffeta
silk that It comes gently rustling In
each season to triumph anew among
afternoon and evening frocks. It has
a certain dignity that belongs to silk
and a certain degree of youthfulness
that belongs to itself, but can be ac
commodated to women of any age. In
the frocks pictured here the styles
bespeak in the wearer something
of youthfulness. Thi is a quality
that some women preserve for many
years, and it is worth recalling that

pretty dress at the left Is shown in black
taffeta, and has a draped bodice fas
tening at one side, with a large jet
buckle over a long bend fringe. The
bodice is unusually graceful. The
neck opening allows a dainty chemi
sette of net and lace to show, and the
kimono sleeves will recommend It to
slender women. Ruffles of the taffeta
finish the collar, sleeves and loose side
panels and make a pretty adornment
for the skirt.
Taffeta is sufficient unto itself in
the gay party frock in which two
colors are combined in a changeable
weave. The wide skirt is scalloped
at the bottom and bound with a fold
of the silk. The new neck line is

E. W. Howe' of Kansas lias been
something of a traveler, lie made a
number of trips abroad and went
twice around the world. It was on
bis first t,rip abroad that lie encoun
tered one of the sea bounds whose
chief boast is concerned in the num
ber of times they have crossed the At
lantic. Mr. Howe tells the incident as
his favorite story.
“Is this your first trip ” the sea
hound asked Mr. Howe on the occa
sion of their first meeting. Mr. Howe
admitted that It was. “Well," said
the sea hound, “I’ve crossed the Atlan
tic 40 times.” On the second day the
sea hound again put the question to
Mr. Howe and again vouchsafed the
same observation. He repeated it at
frequent intervals during the trip.
It. was on the sixtli day, after the
sea hound had again spoken of the
number of ids crossings, that Mr.
Howe said to him: “By the way, have
you ever been to Omaha?” The sea
hound said lie never had. “Well," re
torted Mr. Howe, “I go there every
week.”—Philadelphia Public Ledger.

DIVULGED SECRET OF PAPA’S
Small Daughter of Story Writer Quite
Unwilling to Make Exhibition of
Family Skeleton.
A little girl, whose father is widely
known as n writer of humorous stories,
was recently approached by a visitor,
who said:
“It must lie nice to have a papa who
knows so many fine stories."
The little girl blushed and hung her
head.
“Aren’t you proud of your pupa?”
the visitor asked.
“Yes,” tile little girl answered, “but
I t iiink I ought to tell you something.”
“What Is it?”
“The stories by my papn aren’t
stories at ail.”
"Not stories?"
“No.”
And in a deep, hoarse whisper, the
child confessed:
“He makes them all up out of hia
own head.”
