THE Johnson amendment pro-
viding for Equality Of vot-
ing" in the league of nations

ME Johnson amendment pro
viding for Equality Of vot-
ing" in the league of nations
assembly was made the focal
issue in the Senate treaty league de-
bate last week. During the first
half Of the week it appeared that
the amendment would 60 through,
owing to indications that there
existed majority sentiment for it,
but the latter part Of the week
revealed that supporters Of the
amendment were not So numerous
rs had been supposed. a Washing
ton correspondent Of The New York
Tribune reported that the amend
nent seemed lost by a majority Of
eight votes in the Senate. "The
World" however, the same day
printed a report from it's correspond
ent which was less indicative Of
the amendments fate. This de-
scribed the Senate lineup for the
amendment as being so close that
the change Of o single vote might
either carry it or kill it..
Whatever the fate OF the amend
n9ent is to be, it is generally re-
garded as the most important of the
thirty-nine teXtual changes reported
by the Foreign Relations Committee.
II it should be killed, little hope is
held out for the thirty-eight other
amendments. Senator Johnson III
tends to force it through in the
conn Of a reservation, should he be
unable to win out with it in its
present form. But irrespective Of
the amendments, the Senate treaty
opponents are still confident Of car
yying their reservations.
Aside from the tendency to make
The Johnson amendment the CEN
;ral issue in the controversy, the
speaking tours for and against adop-
Ion of the original treaty text may
re said to have brought about these
additional developments:

Voting Po'cer

The President told his Los An

ponderanec Of voting power in the
league Of nations, because "the as
sembly is to be largely a debating
body, while the council will make
the great decisions" Naming Can
ada, Australia and India, he asked:
"Would you want to deprive these
millions of voice in the debate?"
He then added: ut is a proposition
that never has been stated, because
to state it answers it."

THE SALVATION ARMY
FINDS A PITIABLE CASE

One would hardly believe that a
woman could lay ON her bed, nearly
burned 10 death for nine days and un-
I'll maggots had eaten away much Of
her flesh. within three or four blocks
of the center OF the city without at
tention, hut this really happened. Miss
Cabellero. % years old, had been
burned by lighting a fire with gaso-
line. which she thought TO be kerosene
and received no medical attention until
found by Capt. John W. Rayner OF the
Salvation Army who called DIR. r. NJ.
Steed and had the afflicted girl taken
TO the county hospital where she died
yesterday. Her mother was found In
q nearby house with a 3-day-old baby
and with nothing under her but set
of springs covered by piece of carpet
and nothing over her but a part of
quilt. She had received very little
nourishment and no medical attention.

GREAT REVIVAL POSTPONED

The great revival campaign to have
been begun under Evangelist Charles
Reign Scoville has been postponed a
month. Friday morning the Deming
Alliance received night
letter from the eminent evangelist stat
ing that the meeting at Mckinney,
Texas was assuming the proportions
Of n great meeting and that the church
men and business men had held n
and voted unanimously 10
urge him TO stav another month. He
asked If the Deming people could ar
range 10 begin their campaign the
second or third Sunday of next month.
The representatives OF the churches
held n hasty conference and decided
that they wanted campaign long
enough to answer the needs here and
felt that II was for them to concede
the same privilege to Mckinney
Deming really gains by the change for
October Is the finest month of the
year, as n rule, and the change should
mean really great meeting here also.
The delay will only whet our appetite
and we shall look with interest TO the
reports of the Mckinney revival.

In the industry represented by oyster
cultivation, Holland is the most sys-

more elaborate methods than any other
country In the world. The numerous
sounds that indent the coast Of Hol-
land. particularly in the region Of the
River Scheldt, afford excellent facili-
ties for the propagation OF the oyster
and enable the country to conduct the
most successful oyster industry In Eu-
rope. Public dredging Is not permitted,
as the result Of that system was the
threatened exhaustion OF the fisheries,
and the beds have been carefully sur
yeyed and specific tracts are leased
TO individuals and companies, who are
thus enabled TO conduct the propaga-
tion Of the oyster In systematic man.

lease several tracts in different locali-
