Of Dire Emergency

Washington. June 1S.-A plea
against hasty acceptance OF the
league OF nations was made to the
senate by Senator Knox, republican
OF Pennsylvania, In a carefully pre-
pared address analyzing features OF
the league covenant and >cautionlng
that its ratification would mean a
far departure from American tradI-

The league, declared the former
secretary OF state. would Inevitably
result in super1government en-
powered to act even in the domestic
affairs OF member nations and to
preserve for all time the territorial
boundaries shortly to be fixed by
the peace treaty. He asserted the
new Monroe doctrine provided would
efface that policy from international
Affairs and argued that the amend
ment adopted to cover withdrawal
OF league members would make such
withdrawal absolutely impossible. /"

80 sick persons daily.
Before the war most Of the cloth
ing worn by the MontenegrIns was
made by the women at home, either
OF linen or wool Only small
number OF officials and tradesmen
used imported cloth. During the
war no clothing was made and now
the home supply is cut OFF because
there is not enough labor TO pro-
dnce food and no one can spare
time for spinptng or weaving.
As result Montenegrin men,
women and children are clothed In
burlap sacking. There Is not enough
sacking to go around and the noun
taineers huddie in their huts during
inclement weather. When one OF
their number, generally a child. is

TYPHUS AND LICE !
OVERRUN BOSNIA
Mohammedan Women Refuse Atten-
ton by Male DOctors--No Soap
ON Hand To Fight Filth

SDalato, Bosnia, June 1S.-Fif-
teen per cent of the population in
Bosnia is absolutely destitute.
Typhus Is on the increase both in
Bosnia and Herzegovina. Although
only 500 cases OF typhus are Official
ly reported the American medical
authorities believe that there are
more than 1000. Great difficulty
is experienced by the authorities in
inspecting Mohammedan homes
where three-quarters Of the cases
are believed TO be concealed.
Mohammedan women refuse to be
treated by male doctors no matter
how serious their illness. Many Of
the Christian natives think It un-
manly to have the attention Of a
doctor or nurse.
We are not afraid to die," the
hardy mountaineers assert when
medical aid is offered them. why
all this fuss? Disease is a curse
from God, but IL He sees fit to send
1t to us we must die like men,"
The Bosnian government, however
has closed all moving picture houses,
dance halls and places OF public con-
gregation and is attempting to intro
duce plan whereby a medical GER
tificate win be required OF every
traveller ON the railways.
A veritable plague OF lice over
runs the country. They are to be
found everywhere carrying with
them the germs OF typhus. One of
the greatest needs of the natives is
soap of which there is none to be
had. Typhus is following the lines
of communication, especially the
railways. American Red Cross per-
sonnel. members OF the Hoover food
mission and American naval officers
avoid the railways ais the cars are in
tested with typhus lice.
The American Red Cross is max
ing preparations to aid 22 civilian
hospitals in Bosnia and Herzegovina
and six military hospitals which
have been converted into civilian
hospitals. Four small hospitals
where typhus cases are being treat
ed by American Red Cross doctors
and nurses have been established
and aid also is on the way to five
military hospitals in Dalmatia at
Cattaro. SpalaSo. Sini. Meljini and
Ragusa. Members of, the Hoover

ALLIES TO ADVANCE
IF GERMANS REFUSE

Paris, June 1S.-The majority of
the members OF the peace confer
ence believe Germany will not sign
the peace treaty. according to Marcel
Hutin of the Echo de Paris, who
made a canvass of number OF the
leading personalities of the peace
making body. Only one OF these
leaders, M. Hutin declares. expressed
the opinion that the Germans would
accept the revised treaty. This men,
Der, however, is one whose opinion
the writer says he holds in the great
est esteem.
The delegate in question. M. Hutin
explains, based hfs opinion that the
Germans will sign the treaty on the
fact that they have knowledge that
at yesterdays meeting of the council
of four a complete agreement was
reached on the consequences which
would follow Germany's refusal Of
the proffered peace. They were
aware. the delegate pointed out, that
orders had been given for an allied
force Of 100000 men supported by
heavy artillery Of hitherto unreveal-
ed power, to begin an advance on the
morning Of June "a. Confronted by
such realities. which alone count
with them. the German government
and national assembly at iweimar
will decide to sign the treaty.
