LEADERS PLAN
TOSWAPVOTES
FOR HARMONY.

By a neatly adjusted system Of
vote swapping, Republican leaders
believe today that they will be able
TO readjust the differences between
old-line G. o. P. leaders and the
acknowledgements progressives in
the Senate.
With Congress scheduled to ad-
iourn tonight, and with Republican
National Chairman w. H. Hays on
the job, the minority war horses and
tacticians are going to play the
game fast today in an effort to pro-
duce harmony in the ranks.
Plan to Save Penrose.
Old guard men state that peace
program has been outlined to placate
the men who have been demanding
the elimination of Senator Boies Pen
rose as heir-apparent to the chair
manship of the Finance Committee
and modification of the seniority rule
The Program is a compromise. 1t
includes the nomination of Senator
Poindexter OF Washington, an origi-
nal Bull Moose, as President OF the
Senate pro tenn, and the placing of
Norris, Cummins, Kenyon and other
progressives at the heads af impor-
tant committees. Penrose is sched-
uled to be Finance Committee chair
man.
Would Drop Seniority Rule.
Under the proposed plan, Repub-
! licans also would support the Norris
substitute for the rule OF seniority in
choice OF committee chairmanships,
with some amendments.
Senator Lodge, Republican leader.
has told other Republicans. they said
today, that he is agreeable to elimina-
ton of the seniority rule IL some
reasonable middle ground can be
found.
BOrah May BE Snag.
Hays efforts to bring harmony,
however, may strike a snag in SEN
ator Borah, who is the most irrecon-
cilable of the anti-Penrose insurgents.
How far Borah will go IL he finds
himself alone, or practically alone,
in the fight. he only knows. But those
seeking harmony believe he will not
willingly endanger his party's sue
cess.
Borah's advocacy of-open considera-
ton of the peace treaty by the Senate
is receiving mu:h support from Re

@. s. Menl as Fertilizer.

Columbia, March 29.-The food
administration at no time has made
any rules or regulations which in any
way restrict the use Of cotton seed
meal for fertilizer. This impression
seems to have gained ground from
some unknown source. The food
administration states, on the con-
trary, its attitude has been that the
crushing mills must give to the far
mers Of the South preference in the
sale of their cotton seed meal over
the commercial mixers. The farm
ers may in this way purchase their
raw materials and mix their own fer
tilizers, thereby saving in their in
vestment from 20 to 25 per cent of
the cost Of commercial fertilizer.
There Is no prohibition against the
f'rmer swapping his cotton seed for
meal.

WAR CROSSES WE'RE AWARDED
American Soldiers for Taking Ger
man Prisoners.

With the American Army In
France, March 30.-An American
patrol which yesterday captured four
German prisoners has been cited in
French orders Of the day and will re-
ceive the French war cross. The
Americans to be rewarded are:
Lieut.. George Redwood, OF Balti-
more; Sergt. Henry Mongeau, OF
Cherry Valley, Mass, and Privates
Edward Armstrong, of Mariana, Pa. !;
Carson Shumate, of Ada, w. Va, and
Bernard Bolt, of South Bethlehem,
Penna.
They were four thankful young
Germans who were brought in this
afternoon by the patrol. The Ger
mans were thankful as for them the
war was finished, and that they had
been captured by Americans. One
young Saxon was so struck by the
good treatment and the GOOD food
that he received that he asked per-
mission from the officer in charge of
the patrol to go back through No
| Mans Land and get his brother.
How they were captured Is a story
illustrative Of the spirit prevailing
| along the American front. 1t was 3
o'clock in the morning when infor-
nation reached certain regimental
| headquarters that six of the enemy
had been seen going into an outpost
in No Mans Land.
The regimental Intelligence officer,
lieutenant was awakened hurriedly
and ordered to "go get en-
He started gathering men as he
went along. Tho outpost was some
distance away, but the party reached
point in front of Il. without being
discovered
The lieutenant looked in, saw the
Germans there, motioned his men to
come nearer and when the muzzles
of four rifles and one automatic pis-
tol were pointed in the Germans di-
rection, the lieutenant, in German,
demanded their surrender.
-Four Of the enemy held up their
hands, crying "kamerad."
The other two started to do like
wise. but suddenly changed their
minds and tried to escape. Failing
to heed the cries to halt" they were
fired upon and dropped in their
tracks.
BY that time the sun had risen and
the Americans faced the prospect Of
recrossing No Mans Land in day
light. Either the Germans failed to
see them or held their fire because
they did not desire to kill prisoners.
In any event the Americans returned
unscathed with their four prisoners.
