American Medical association here at
annual convention today, said: "In the
last century the average human life has

federal and state promotion of scien-
tific research to secure the longest life
and the highest degree OF health. He
cited instances to show that Americas
boasted civilization is justified only
within limits. He said murders, sa-
looms and sweat shops removed citizens
slightly from barbarism and that a
large percentage of deaths were due to
preventable diseases.

HOUSE ON RECORD FOR
EXEMPTION OF UNIONS

Washington, June 23--The house
against went on record last night for
exempting labor unions from prosecu-
tion under the antitrust laws. A pro-
vision in the sundry civil appropriation
bill appropriating 100000 for enforce
ment of the antitrust laws, was adopt
ed after a sharp debate over the pro-
vision exempting labor and agricul-
tural organizations. This provision
reads:
mo part of this money shall be spent
in prosecutions of any organization or
individual for entering into any COM
the increasing of wages, shortening of
hours or bettering the conditions of
labor. or for any act done in further
ance thereof not in itself unlawful.
Provided further, that no part of
this appropriation shall be expended for
the prosecution of producers of farm
products and associations Of farmers
who Cooperate and organize In an ef-
fort to and for the purpose of obtain
Ing and maintaining fair and reason
able price for their products"
Representative Moore of Pennsyl-
vania, who sought to have the provis-
ion stricken out, quoted Colonel Roose-
welt as opposing such legislation and
thereby became involved in a heated
argument with Representative Bryan
OF Washington and other Progressives.
Mr.. Bryan said he resented "the at

Washington. June 2s.-one million
dollars in a single fee.
That's what they say Hannds TAYLOR.
former minister to Spain, international
lawyer and warm friend of William ].
Bryan will get from the Colombian gov
ernment in case the proposed treaty
giving Colombia $4,000, 900 goes
through. Mr.. Bryan drew up the treaty.
and is its most ardent supporter.
Mr.. Taylor admits that he has been
employed by Colombia to use his infiu-
ence and legal skill to get the treaty
through. He denies, however. that the
amount of his fee has been fixed. He
says that his employment has been
legitimate in every respect; that
neither in the arrangements for his
compensation nor in any other phase of
hds connection with the negotiations
Is there the slightest taint of scandal.
The rumor that Mr. Taylor is to
receive million for his share IL the
treaty goes through was started when
a member of the Taylor family made a
remark at dinner party to the effect
that Mr.. Taylor will be on easy
street" IL the treaty passes the SEN
ate, for he Is to be paid s1,oo0,0o0 for
his services to the Colombian govern
ment.
Even after Mr. Taylors denial the
Evening capital news. (Boise, Idaho) 1901-1927, 1914-06-23

rumor gained strength, as It is
known Colombia is willing to spend
huge sums to secure the passage of the
treaty.
1T seems to be clear that of the
S25, 100000 1t is proposed to give CO.
lombta there is at least SIS, ,000, 900 to-
tally unaccounted for by the previous
claims of that country" said Senator
Borah, one of the foremost opponents
of the treaty. 'In fact, during the
Taft administration, Colombia was
willing to accept $S,000,000. There
seems to be room here for a few ex-
plantations"
Mr.. Bryan has summarized the OBJ
jects to be accomplished by the rati-
f1cation of the treaty as follows:
F1rst-The restoration of amity be-
tween the United States and Colombia.
Second-Tshe creation of an amic-
able relation between the republics of
Colombia and Panama, which he holds
is desirable.
Third-The action OF the United
States, pursuant to the treaty, will
have favorable impression through
out the Latin American republics and
promote general cordial good will be-
tween the United States and the
younger republics of the western hem
tsphere.

the prejudice and misunderstanding
which must be overcome. One way is

parties" Wanamalxer said that John

take when he put President Wilson In
