Milan started this session with a

to reach the plate, but deferred his
death long enough to enable Shanks
to reach third. 1t was then Janvrin
pasted that sizzler to the uttermost
confines of center field for a circuit of
the bases. Picinich's double which
followed was wasted when Smith
backed up against the stands in right
and hauled down Johnson's long wal
iop. This margin was more than
enough to assure victory, but Joe
Judge made it absolutely safe by
driving the ball in a line into the
right field bleachers for another home
run in the ninth.
A nap by Eddie Foster on third base
in the sixth prevented the Griffs from
acquiring run in that round. With
one out Foster, Milan and Rice sin
gled in succession to crowd the cor

squeeze play Foster was caught flat

plate.

Is The Peace Treaty
Greatly Changed?

1t is not yet reported exactly how
far the Allied reply to the German
counter-proposals will go in modify
ing the original Peace Terms to Ger
many. 1t is expected that the Al
lied reply will be handed to the Ger
man delegates today and that five
days will be given the Germans in
which to sign.
1t is the generally accepted opin-
ion that the Germans will sign the
treaty within the specified time,
However. the fact that Marshal
Foch has left Paris for the Rhine is
taken as indicating the readiness of
the Allies to resort to military force
if the Germans do not sign. The
Supreme Blockade Council of the al
lies has also finished its plans for
re-establshing the wartime block
ade OF Germany should the terms be
refused by her.
There is much speculation as to
how far the original treaty has been
modified. 1t is known that Mr..
Lloyd George, in response to a very
definite dissatisfaction with the
treaty terms on the part of British
opinion, especially British labor,
has been holding out for certain
changes. M. Cfemenceau, on the
other hand, has held out rigidly
against any modification, especially
in the body of the text There is a
report that changes have been en-
bodied in an addendum, a rather GU
irous compromise.
If the treaty is not changed it will
be a great disappointment to large
body of English and Amrican liberal
opinion. II is felt, in these circles.
that the treaty as it stands is merely
a source of future wars. A leading
organ of American liberal opinion,
for instance, in an article on the pro-
posed notifications. has this to sly:
What Paris is now reconsidering
are those elements in the treaty
which make it an instrument of dis
order. A plebiscite in the Polish
district. Why? Because these sup
posedly we'll informed statesmen
have discovered a civil war about to
break out. A definite sum, instead
of a blank check to be filled in by
the Reparations Commission. Why?
Because this engine Of Commercial
intrigue and indefinite menace is
even now revealed as an intolerable
disturber Of the, European peace.
Early admission of Germany, to the
League. Why? Because in June
the statesmen see what they declined
to see in May-that a mere league OF
victors inevitably calls into existence

complete report of the work Of the
American Red Cross In the war by
Chairman Henry p. Dawson, on be-
half of the war council, the organiza-
ton on the eve of its annual enroll
ment of members during the Third
Red Cross Roll Call, November to
IL, has rendered an accounting Of the
many millions given 1t by the Ameri-
can people to help our fighting men
and our allies The statement is, in
part, as follows:
"The war council of the American
Red Cross is now prepared to make
complete accounting to the American
people of money contributed and ex-
pended, as well as the work done by
the American Red Cross during the
period in which the war council was
in control Of It's affairs. The war
council was appointed May 10, 1919,
and went out of existence February
%, 1919.
at was the practice of the war
council to give complete publicity to
its policies and finances, but 1t Is only
now that picture of the war period
as a whole can be presented 1t is
the feeling of the war council that a
report in this summarized form should
be made directly to the public which
provided the money and gave the ef-
fort which made the American Red
Cross a success.

throughout all portions of the Unite
States and their contents are Owneo
by thousands of competing firms and
individuals. About half the storage
space in the country consists Of public
warehouses that rent space to who
ever wants II, either for small lots or
big ones. Tabulated figures Of the
amounts in storage are gathered and
disseminated by the government
monthly; and the amounts in holding
from month to month figured against
what should normally be in storage
during those months Ger the estimated
demand) form the basis for prices
Some Figures on Profits
But the best information as to
profits in the cold storage business
consists OF. actual figures, and such
are published regularly by the federal
Department of Agriculture. These
show, for instance, that In the season
of 1915-1916 butter stored in June and
July at an average of 1854 cents a
pound, sold from November to March
at an average Of 27.45 cents a pound,
giving a gross profit of O.S1 cents
pound, or scarcely enough to pay for
storage and nothing for net profit OF
interest on investment. In 1916-1917
the gross profit was 7.79 cents a
pound, and in 1917-191S 1T was 5.Se
cents, These gross amounts must
cover storage charges and interest on
the money tied up for several months
before the net profits are arrived at
1t is apparent from these figures that
storing of foods is an uphill and down
hill business with its fat and lean
years, and affords an average profit
which is not excessive in view of the
risks that are run. Figures on storage
eggs for 1915-1916 show a net loss Of
% cents dozen; for 1916-1917, an
unusually prosperous year, the net
profits were 5.54 cents a dozen; and
for 1917-1918 there was net loss Of
LAP cents a dozen.
Extravagant charges Of manfpula-
ton and control Of prices are prepoS
terously absurd in view of these sea
sons Of losses. The ups and down Of
profits simply indicate the hazards Of
the game; for the best laid plans OF
men can not foresee when a warm
spell may come which win start the
hens to laying, nor, on the other hand.
a cold snap that will shut OF current
production entirely. Year in and year
out, as the figures would indicate, the
consumer pays but a modest sum for
the blessing Of cold storage, which
takes upon itself. with all risks in
yolved. the task of laying in his winter
stores for him.
