" Buffalo Bill and the business men
of Cody, Wyoming where he lives,
have agreed this year, as they did last,
that every piece of mail which goes

December should bear a Red Cross

Last year led by Buffalo Bill. they
purchased 22,j00 seals-a record which
will probably 90 unbeaten in this
country for the greatest use of seals

WILSON EXPLAINS
LABOR AMENDMENT
President Feels His Position on
Antitrust Measure Is Fully
Consistent.

President Wilson does not consider
that in agreeing to the amendments to
the clayton antitrust bills he has COM
promised his original position of refus-
Ing to give labor unions blanket exemp-
ton from the operation of the Sherman
antitrust law. He believes that the
amendments. as agreed upor, are en-
tirelt consistent with his position adopt
ed by him last summer in signing the
sundry civil appropriation bill. when he
declared that labor unions which yio-
lated the law should be prosecuted by
the Department of Justice
In talking this morning with callers
the President explained that all sec
ton : Of the Clayton bill means, in its
amended form, is that labor organiza-
tions. as such, are not illegal bodies.
BY reason of decisions Of the Supreme
Court, he pointed out, labor leaders had
taken the position that under the court
interpretations of the Sherman law, Ia
Dor unions exist merely by the suf-
france of the Department of Justice.
On the other hand. the President de-
clared, the whole country sustains the
existence of such organizations for
their own protection, and for that rea-
son section was so amended as to
remove all doubt as to the legality
OF such organizations.
Section eighteen, on the other hand,
the President maintained, does not, in
his Onion, give labor any more
actual rights than II had under the
original Sherman law. Carefully

HAS NEW
TOLLS AMENDMENT
Nevada Senator Would En-
power President to Change
Rates If Necessary.

Senator Pittman of Nevada, Democrat,
added to the interest Of the situation in
the Senate over the repeal of free tolls
today by introducing an amendment
which gives the President the right so
to adjust tolls through the Panama
canal as to prevent discrimination.
Senator Pittman made bries state
ment in behalf OF his amendment, and
pointed out that the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty required there should be no dis
criTaination in-tolls, but did not require
the tolls should be the same for ships
of each nation.
He laid emphasis on the fact that IL
Great Britain fepays the tolls OF British
vessels, or subsidies them, and Ameri-
can vessels have to paw tolls and get no
subsidy, then there will be discrimina-
ton, and American vessels will not be
on an equality with British vessels.
His amendment gives the President the
right to change the tolls at any time
he may deem II necessary to insure
equality of treatment of the vessels of
the different nations.
Senators Catron. Colt, and Myers
made set speeches today. Senator Colt.
who is a conservative Republican from
Rhode Island, and Senator Myers cav-
ored the repeal bill. Senator Catron
opposed it.

WILSON LAYS TRADE
ILLS TO RAILROADS

Believing that the present business
depression is confined to the industries
and parts Of industry dependent upon
the prosperity of the railroads, Presi-
dent Wilson still thinks that what de-
preston there is, is psychological"
Explaining this morning to callers the
impressions which were responsible for
his remarks to the Middle Western
manufacturers who called on him last
week to plead for peace from further
antitrust legislation at this time, the
President declared that he thought the
general business of the country was
proceeding in a normal way. There is,
he said, depression that seems to
radiate from the railroad offices. For
example, he pointed out that the busi-
less of the steel industry dependent on
railroad extensions and all related in
1ustries had been forced to Contract,
and this, in turn. nad been reflected
in the market Of the lenders OF money.
In spite of this, however. the President
regards as significant and remarkable
the statement Of Mr.. Gary of the steel
urst that the generai business of that
organization is looking up. Therefore,
the President explained, it would seem
that in Other lines of the steel industry.
related TO the general business OF the
country. business is forging ahead.
Therefore, he said, he had told the
middle Western manufacturers that il
they would only believe that prosperity
was coming, prosperity would come with
a jump.
The tariff, the President declared, has
had nothing to do with the present de-
preston. He ventured the belief, re-
sulting from talks which he has had
with the Secretary of Commerce, that
since the tariff went into effect, the ex-
ports Of the country have been in
creasing more rapidly than the imports.
In fact he pointed out, business de-
preston Is general throughout the whole
world at this particular time, and de-
clared that 1t was less felt in this
country than anywhere else.

although many OF them tell each

leave behind them such personal
tributes TO their own ability as did

Amenhotep Ill.
Modesty was unknown 10 the an.
Client scribe, and the desire to be
handed down TO posterity as very
remarkable man was so strong that
few admitted any personal defects
and felt IL no injustice to speak of
themselves In terms which would

This ancient newspaper man,
Amenamhat. came from Nubia. and.

king wanted written-he sent out
