; BURNING MONEY \


Life Is gay and blithe and sunny
since the peace dove hit the breeze !;
every one is burning money as
though 1t grew on trees, insist on
thrift and saving. but there's none to
heed my words; Johnnies say that
am raving. and throw money to the
birds, Men are drawing princely
wages. and their breasts are filled
with mirth. and they jeer forebod-
Ing sages who predict a day of
dearth; but that day will come as
surely as tomorrow's sun will rise;
things will then be going poorly with
the giddy spend thrift guys, Things
won't boom along forever as they're
booming now. my friends: and the
man who's truly clever saves as ably
as he spends. II is patent to the
knowing. in expensive times like
these, that the kopecks won't he
growing always on shrubs and trees.
There will come a day OF trouble,
when this boom is left behind. and
the kopeck and the ruble will be
mighty hard TO find; happy then the
lads whose wages have been safely
placed in brine, who obeyed the
seers and sages, when the saving
graft was fine. And how sick will
be the mortals who like spendthrifts
now behave. who reply with jeers
and chortles when we call on them
TO save!

TIGER" Of FRANCE
TOO POPULAR TO REST

La Tranche, Vendea, France. Aug
26.-(COrrespOndence of the Associ-
ated Press) Premier Clemenceau
arrived here the other day in search
Of peace and quietness. The premier
looked as if he needed rest and there
was nothing suggestive of the "Ti-
ger" as he descended from the dusty
automobile which had borne him
from Paris to the sea. He appeared
old and wan and tired and heaved
"a sigh OF relief as he sat on an old
wooden bench in the shady garden
Of the villa Philippon, wiped the
perspiration from his brow and en-
joyed the ocean breeze.
The premier does not like public
functions and probably the only one
OF the past few months, excepting
those Of the reinforcement of Alsace-
Lorraine, at which he did not ap-
pear bored was the Victory Day pa
rade. He has lost none of his good
humor, however, and when asked
how he had enjoyed the trip from
the capital, replied:
Somewhat tiresome but the cOun-
try is so beautiful Yesterday we
visited several chateaux on the
Loire. l should have enjoyed great
ly having little sleep at Nantes but
the crowd, after midnight commence
ed to acclaim and cheer me under my
very window at the Central hotel.
What a funny idea"

= OREGON WEATHER
RECOGNITION OF SENATE
(The Oregonian)

Dallas, Ore, Sept. 14.-(To the
Editor) In The 0regonian you
have this to say in criticism of Pres
ident Wilson's treatment OF the Unit
ed States senate: Let us sympathize
with Senator johnson and Senator
Borah in the exhibition they make
of their sore spots to the American
ptople-sore spots inflicted by Pres
tdent Wilson in his contemptuous
and foolish treatment of the United
States senate"
Now, win The Oregonian kindly
inform an inquisitive public, which
has neither the time nor opportun-
ity to get the information itself, in
what manner former presidents
treated the United States senate
when negotiating important interna-
tional treaties. Were the members
of the United States senate consult
ed, or any of them appointed as dele
gates to negotiate such treaties?
J. T. FORD.
This question was answered by
The Oregonian in an editorial pub
lished February 2, 1919. but as it
frequently recurs it is not amiss
again to recite some historical incl
dents.
In 1885 the senate adopted reso-
luton requesting President Jackson
to consider the expediency of open
ing negotiations authorizing the
construction of a canal through the
isthmus OF Panama President Jack
son complied by sending an agent to
Central America, whose report was
adverse.
A convention in regard to the Ore
gOn boundary, which had been sub
mitted by the British prime minis
ter, together with a protocol of the
proceedings, was sent to the senate
by President Polk in 1876 with re-
quest for advice as to what action he
should take.
Polk again in 1916 consulted the
senate as TO entering on peace ne
gotiations with Mexico.
President Buchanan in 1851 asked
the senate II it would approve a trea-
ty Of arbitration in regard to a dis
puted point in the Ashburton-Web ebs-
ter treaty.
President Lincoln resubmitted the
same question to the senate and
asked it's advice.
President Grant in 1872 asked for
"an expression by the senate of their
disposition" in RECORD to a proposed
article which the British govern
ment had submitted for the settle
ment of differences Of opinion con-
cerning the treaty of Washington.
President Cleveland, in 1888, was
asked by the senate to open nego-
tiations with China for a treaty to
regulate immigration, and he replied
that such negotiations had been un.
dertaken.
The treaty most nearly analogous
to the one pending and concluded in
recent years was the peace treaty
with Spain in 1898. President Nc
Kinley recognized the senate by ap-
pointing Senator Cushman K. Davis.
Senator William p. Frye and Senator
George Gray as three OF the five
members of the commission.

 ATHLETIC MEET
Prominent Athletes Will Compete For Honors
 Near Paris.

New York, April 1S.-The complete program for the inter-allied games, to be held near Paris about the mid dle of June, was announced here to- day by Dr. George Fisher, head of the physical education department of the Y. M. c. A.
 There are twenty track and field events, the running races being a standard metre distance ranging from 100 to 1,500.
 High and low hurdles events are carded; running high and broad jumps, pole vault, javelin, disvus, shot put and r. modified marathon race of 16,000 metres and a rcoss country run for individual competitors of 10,- 900 meters. Three relay races, one of medley event, also are proposed. Team games, both American and English, hold prominent place and there is a rule that other events can be added were two or more allied na- tions enter teams for such competi- tion. Swimming, shooting, boxing, wrestling and rowing for various weights and classes are also included. This series of events, open to all soldiers and sailors of the various allied nations, was planned by Col onel Wait c. Johnson, and Elwood s. Brown, for the A. E. F. and the Y. M. c. A. cooperating.
 Pershing Stadium Site. The track and field meet will be held in Pershing stadium at Joinville. ! The stadium which is partly complet- ed, will seat 22,OO0 spectators and including those who stand, will ac- commodate 35,000. A 500 meter circu- lar track and 300 yard straightway will be the scene of the running
 events, except the marathon and cross-country races.
 Candidates for teams to represent
 England, America, Italy, France,
 Belgium, British colonies and other nations are in training. The Ameri- cans are practicing in all parts of
 Europe where army or navy bases
 are located. Later, the team squads
 will gather at one point for final
 work.
 More than 2,50O army officers and
 300 Y. M. c. A. trainers are at
 present developing the athletes from
 whom the United States team will be
 selected. No idea of the size of the
 team can be given at this time, but it
 probably will range from 800 to 500
 men. Soldiers or sailors returned to this country or who did not get over-
 seas, are eligible and some are cer- f tain to make the: trip to France to
 represent the United States. Special trophies for certain excep- Etional events such as the pentathlon
 are to be donated by kings, presi-
 dents, premiers, and others of the allied nations.

NATIONWIDE HEALTH
CONFERENCE IS CALLED
Surgeon General Blue Would Have
Meeting Here to Coordinate
Efforts.

Surgeon General Blue Of the public
health servIc" today sent out a nation
wide call for national health conserva-
ton. and suggesting Il conference to
be held here to consider health pro-
gram prepared by the health service.
Gen. Blue points out that practically
all the health agencies of the country
have under consideration some plan of
health conservation. and that unless the
work can be co-ordinated and properly
directed little will be accomplished and
there will be much overla piping of effort
and waste of funds.
1t is emphasized that the success of
the plan will be determined by its di
rect applica bilty to the conditions in
the different local communities. DR..
Blue announced the following facts
today:
Preventable disease cost the United
States $4,000, 10000 less in 1917 than
it would have had the health conditions
of twenty years ago prevailed in 1917.
-Four hundred thousand fewer deaths
occurred in 1917 than would have had,
the 1900 death rate prevailed. Annual
illness OF workers still costs this country
$4,000, 100000 each year. One man in
every three called by the Army was
found to be physically unfit.

sued today. 1.-The lesson taught by this
splendid demonstration of team work
should not be lost to the country. For
this reason, the American Red Cross,
which has set aside millions of dollars
for health work in the United States,
has been asked to take an active part
in transiating the health program into
action. Its thousands of local chap
tiers are counted on to arouse and main
tain interest in health work and ac-
lively cooperate with federal, state and
local health officers in accordance with
the announced policy of the American
Red Cross TO cooperate with existing
health agencies

OVERLAPPING OF SHIPS
URGED IN NAVAL REPORT
Admiral r. S. Griffin Emphasizes
Continuous Service of Craft
During War.

The efficiency of many ships of the
Navy has been reduced by continu-
Gus operation during the war without
the usual overhauling and a large
expenditure of money will be re-
quired to put them in repair. Rear
Admiral X. :. Griffin. CHIEF of the
naval bureau of steam engineering
SAID today in his annual report. The
propellinS machinery particularly suf-
fered. the report said. but owing to
the expert service performed by the
Nays repair ships not single COM
batant ship was withdrawn from
service during the war, unless re-
pairs were previously scheduled.
Activities of the bureau during the
year have been marked by highly
satisfactory prosecution of engine
construction to meet the new ship
building program rather than by new
technical developments" the report
added. The electrical propulsion sys-
TEN on the dreadnaught New Mexico,
which has been adopted for all flu
ture big ships. was commended in
the report. which said the New Mex
leo had demonstrated a saving in
fuel of approximately 20 per cent.
