NEW YORK, March 9. «Roprosnn-'
satives of 170,000 anthracite minersl
th.tfi afternoon presented demandssto
the operators for a 60 per cent wue{
increase, a minimum six-hour day, a |
five-day week and other changes in
mining conditions which were ap*
proved by the United Mine Workers
of America at their convention in
Cleveland, Ohio, last August. There
were indications that the negotiations
might develop into a hard fight over
the “closed shop,” as the represen
tatives of the miners said they would
insist upon this demand.
The demands were made during a
meeting of the joint scale committee
of anthracite miners and operatora.!
The swssions today were mosfly de-|
voted to getting together. The del-|
egates are following closely the de
velopments of the President's coal
cammission now sitting in Washing
ton, and if this commission reports
poon it is likely that the hard coal
miners will he guided by its deeision. |
The miners -admit receiving in-;
creases of wages amounting to nboutl
60 per cent during the last few years,
but these are cclled “war increases,” |
or “emergency measures."” i

Letter to Hitch k
: WASHINGTON, March 9.—Pres ident Wilson's letter to Senator
| Hitcheock declaring his unalterabl e refusal to accept Senator Lodge's
! reservation to Article X of the peace treaty follows:
\
. My Dear BSenator Hitchcoek:
7 understand that one or two of your
colleagues do me the honor of desiring
to know what my views are with ref
erence to Article X of the League of
Nations and the effect upon the league
of the adoption of certain proposed
reservations to that article, T welcome
the opportunity to throw any light I
can upon a subject which has become
so singularly beclouded by misappres
hensions and misinterpretations of
every kind.
There is no escaping the moral obe
ligaticns which are expected in positivg
terms in this article of the covenant.
We won a moral vietory over Germany
far greater even than the military vic
tory. won on the field of battle, be
cause the opinion es the whole world
swung to our support and the support
of the nations associated with us in
the great struggle. It did so because
our common profession @nd promise
that we meant to establish ‘‘an or
ganization of peace which should make
it certain that the combined power of
free nations would check every inva
sion of right and serve to make fe-co
and justice the more secure by afford
ing a definite tribunal of opinion to
which all must submit and by which
evéry International rudiunmlm that
cannot be mmicably agreed upon by the
peoples directly concerned shall be
ranctioned. This promise and assur
ance were written into the prelimina
ries and the armisdice and into the
preiiminaries of the peace itself and
constitute one of the most sacred ob
ligations ever assumed by any nation
or body of nations. It is unthinkable
that America should set the example
of ignoring such a solemn moral en
gagement,
SUPPORTS ARTICLE X,
For myself, 1 feel that 1 could wnot
Jook the soldters of our gallant armies
in the face again if I ald not do
everything in my power to remove
every obstacle that lles in the way of
the adoption of this particular article
of the covenant, bechuse we made these
pledges to them as well as to thereat
of the world and it wus to this cause
they deemed themselves devoted in a
spirit of crusaders. 1 should be for
éver unfaithful to them if I ‘ld net
do my utmost to. fulfill the hifh pur
posa for which they fought.
1 think, my dear senator, we can
digmiss from our minds the {dea that
it I 8 necessary to stipuiste in con
nection with Articla X the constitu
tional methods we should use in ful
filling our obligations under it. We
gain ummnT by such stipulations and
secure mnothing which s not already
secured. It was understood as a mut
ter of course At the conference In
Paris that whatever obligations any
fovernmont assumed or whatever duties
t undertook under the treaty would of
course have to be fulfilled by its uaual
and established constitutional methods
of action. Onoe or twice ig meetings
of the conferenceé, when the treatv was
under conslderation, “‘reservations’
were mhde to that effect by the rep

. those ‘“reseTvations”’ were invariably
received in the way in which men who
bave met for business and .not for talk
always received acts of scrupulous super
erogation—listened to with indif
ent silence as such men listen to what
is a matter of course and was mot
necessary to say. !
There ¢an be no objection to explain
ing again what our constitutional method
is and that our Congress alone can de
clare war or determine the causes or
cecasions for war, and that it alone
can authorize the use of the armed
forces of the United Htates on land or
on the sea. But to make such a
declaration would ecertainly be a work
of supererogation.
INTERPRETATIONS NULLIFY,
I am sorry to say that the reserva
tions that have come under my notice
are, anolt without exception, not in
terpretations of the articles to which it
ia proposed to attach them, but in effect
virtual nullifications of those articles,
Any reservations which seek to de
prive the lLeague of Nations of the
force of Article X ocut at the very
heart and life of the covenant itself.
Any Leapue of Nations which does not
guarantee as a matter of incontestable
rfght the political independence and in
tagrity of each of its members might be
hardly more than a futile scrap of paper,
as ineffective In operation as the agree
ment between Belgium asnd Germany
which the Germans violated in 1914, Ar
ticle X as written into the treaty of
Varunllles represents the renunciation by
Great Britain and Js{)w which before
the war had begun to find so many
interests fn commeon in the Pacific; by
France; by Ttaly—by all the great fight
ing rowprn of the world, of the old pre
tentions of political comquest and ter
ritorial aggrandizement. It is a new J
doetrine in the world’s affairs and must
be recognizod aas there is no secure |
basis for the peacsa which the whole
world #o longingly desires and so desper
ately needs. If Article X i= not adopted
and acted upon, the governments which
reject it will, 1 think, be guilty of bad
faith to their people whom they In«
duced to make the infinite macrifices of
the war by the pledge that Qher would
be firhting to redeem the world from
the old order of force and aggreesion.
They will be acting also in bad faith
so the opinion of the world at large
to which they appenled for support in
& concerted stand againgt the aggres
sions and pretentions of Germany. If
we were to reject Article X or so to
weaken it as to take its full force out
of it, it would mark us as desiring to
return to the old world of jealous rivalry
and misunderatandings frorm which our
gallant soldiers have relieved us, and
would leave us without Any vision or
new cvhfiaplion of Jjustice and peace.
We woild have learned no lesson from
the war, hut gained only the regret
that it had invelved us in Its mael
strom of suffering. If Amerlcu has
awakened as the rest of t world has
to the vision of n flew daw in which the
mistakes of the past are to be corrected,
it will welcome the opportunity to
share the refponsibilties of Article X,
IMPERIALIST SHUNS LEAGUE.
The imperalist wants no League of
Nations, but, if, in response to the uni
versal ory of the masses everywhere
there is to be one, he is interested to
gacure one suited to his own purposes,
one that will permit him to centinue !
the historic game of pawns and péo-
Klau—-(he juggling of provinces, the old ‘
balances of power and the inevitable
wars attendant upon these things. The
regervation proposed would perpetuate
the old order. Does anyone really want
to see the old game played again? Can
anyone r?lly venture te take part in
veviving vhe ‘old order? The enemies of ¢
u League of Nations have by every true
insfinct centared thelr offorts against
Article X, for it _is undoutedly the
foundation of the whele structure. It is
the bulwark of the rising democracy of
the world against the forces of Im
perialism an dreaction.
1t must uot be forgotten, senator,
that this article constitutes a renun
clation of wrong ambition on the part
of powerful nations with whom We
were associated in the war. It is by -
no means certain that without this arti
¢cle any such renunciation will take
plage. Militaristic ambitions and -im
perialistic policies are by no means dead
evenn in the councils 6f the _nntlnm
whom we most trust and with® whom
we most desire to be associated in the
tasks of peace Throurhout the ses
plons of the conference in Paris it was
evident that a militarigtic party, un
der the most {nfluential leadership,
was seeking to gpin ascendancy in the
counoils of F'rsnc:. They were defeat
ed then, but are in control now. The
chief arguum{nu advanced in Paris in
uu‘{}port of the Itallan claims on the
Adriatic were strategic arguments,
which t‘ui at their back the thoufl;t
of naval supremacy in that sea. r
my own part, 1 am as intolerant of
imperialigtic designs on the part of
the ot nations as 1 was of such de
signs the part of Germany.

ALL NULLIFIERS.
I need not say, senator, that I have
given a great deal of thought to the
whole matter of reservations proposed,
in connection with the ratification of
the treaty and particularly that por
tion of the treaty which centains the
covenant of the League of Nations and
I havé been struck by the fact that
practically every so-called reservation
was in effoct & rather sweeping nul
litication of the terms of tfie treaty
itself. I hear of reservations and mild
reservationiats, but I cannot under
stand the difference between a mnulli
fier and a mild mnullifler,. Our re
sponsibility a 8 a mation in this turn
ing point of history is an overwhelims
ing one, and if 1 had the oppertu
nity 1 would beg everyone concerned
to consider the matter in the light
of what it is possible to dccomplish
for humanity rather than in the light
of special national interests ‘
If I have been truly informed cond '
cerning the desire of some of your
colleagues to krow my views in this ‘
matter, I Would be very glad if you ‘
should show this letter to them. . |

Senator Watson of Indiana, one of

with Senators Kellogg of Minnesota

publican “mild reservationists,” in
| preparing such a compromise.
'ROOT AT CONFERENCE. |
The decision of the Republican
leaders was discussed at a conferg
ence in Senator Lodge's office a?
which Elihu Root was present. Mr.
Root agreed with them there was
ispant prospect for ratification and
“if a break had come” he was “glad
llt had come on Article X.” |
Rejection of the proposed compro
mise by administration senators fol
lowing President Wilson's déclara
tion for an unreserved acceptance
of Article X will demonstrate forci
bly to the American people, the Re
publican léaders said, that it is the
'Demm-ratic and not the Ropublican‘
side that refuses to compromise in
order to secure ratification.
Administration senators deciared
}thorn was ‘“nothing new” in thel
President’s letter beyond lits giving
further emphasis to the position he
‘has maintained all along with refer
ence to Article X. Senator Hitch
cock, as their leader, expressed the'
opinion that while some senators
would probably continue “to fiddle
around”’ a compromise, none seemed
likely to develop that would lead to
ratification, .
By a vote of 22 to 55 an amend
ment to the fourteenth reservation
was adopted which provided that the.
United States wouvld not be bound by
any action in which dominions or
colonies voted “except in cases where
Congress has previously given its
consent.”
Senator Phelan, Democrat, of Cali
fornia, offered as a substitute for the
fourteenth Lodge reservation, the one
Senator Johnson, Republican, Califor
nia, sponsored on November 6. The
reservation was defeated at that time.
An amendment proposed by Senaror
McCormick, Republican, Illinois, that
if one year after the United States
enters the league the covenant shall
not l;e altered to equalize the voting
power the United States shall with
draw from the league, was defeated
by a vote of 57 to 19.
Senator Phelan’s substitute for the
fourteenth reservation was defeated
by a vote of 73 to 4. Senator Hitch
cock then offered a substitute reser
vation.
The substitute to the fourteenth
Lodge reservation offered by Senator
Hitchcock was defeated by a vote of
41 to 34. Tfle Senate then started
to vote on the reservation itself. It
was adopted as amended.

statement asserts, “and unless the

Let’s Get Better Acquainted
HE folks who render your telephone service are regular people
just like you and your associates. There is nothing mysterious
about them; if you knew them better you could more readily
understand some of the thirgs about your telephone service which
now perplex you.
These telephone folks are pretty busy these days, but they will
welcome you at the office and show you all the details of telephone
operating. :
It's so much easier and so much more satisfying to do business
with people whom you know personally. In the stores or in the
banks you like to deal with the clerks or officials you know by name.
Often you wait in order to be served by one you know rather than
have a stranger serve you.
It’s the same way in telephone service. If you knew some of the
telephone workers there would be a bond of interest which would
brighten their work and add a personal aspect to your service.
There is one man or woman in the service somewhere for every
thirty telephones; in your own town there are many to know who
help you every day.
You come indirectly in contact with telephone workers every time
you use the telephone. You cannot know them all personally, but
if you were familiar with their surroundings and the conditions
under which they work you would have a more personal interest
which would be reflected in your service.
Right now the switchboards are busier than ever and it is a won
derfu? sight to witness the operators handling the heaviest traffic the
switchboard has ever carried.
Why not visit the telephone office and see what happens to the
thousands of telephone calls pouring in every day?” Tfie telephone
workers will welcome you and you will fin:iy them to be much the
same sort of folks you meet in other walks of life—really, we try to
have just a little above the average. They are thoroughly human,
:iv;th a desire to serve efficiently and enjoy the reward of work well
ne.

Put Stomach in
Fine Condition
Says Indigestion R c.s ults
From an Excess of Hydro
chloric Acid.
Undigested food delayed In the
stomgch decays, or rather, féerments
the same as food left in the open
air, says a noted authority. He also
tells us that indigestion is caused by
Hyper-acidity, meaninz, there is an
excess of hydro-chloric acid in {he
stomach which prevents ‘complete ¢
digestion and starts food fermen- '
tation. Thus everything eaten sours .
in the stomach much iike garbage
sours in a can, forming acrid fluids
and gases which inflate the stom
ach like a toy balloon. Tien we feel
a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest,
we belch up gas, we eructate sour
food or have heartourn, flatulence,
water-brash or nausea. ¢
He tells us to lay aside all di- '
gestive aids and instead, get from
any pharmacy four ounces of Jad
Salts and take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before “preakfast and
drink while it iz effervescing and
furthermore, to conginue this for a
week. While relief foilows the first
dose, it is important to neutralize the
acidity, remove the gas-making mass,
start the liver, stimulate the kid
neys and thus Promote a free flow
of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpersive and ‘is
made from the acid of grapes und
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and sodium phosphate. This harm
less salts is used by thousands of
people for stomach trouble with ex
cellent results.—Adv.
