 Needed" Hobby

Fort Worth, Tex, Sept. 1.-Gov. w. P. Hobby of Texas, speaking be- fore the convention of Kiwanis clubs here tonight. again declared himself in favor of intervention by the Uni ted States in Mexico.
 "The American army was used on the other side of the Atlantic to force Germany to honor the Ameri- can flag" Governor Hobby said, "and it is equally imperative that it should be used for the purpose of forcing other people to respect it on this side of the ocean,"
 While not mentioning his name, Governor Hobby touched on the re- cent attack on John R. Shilladv of New York, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, at Austin.
 "I believe in Texas for Texans only, and just as strongly do be- lieve that Texans should sav how the affairs of the state should be con ducted" the governor said. "And believe in sending any narrow brained, double-chinned reformel who comes here with the end 1T view of stirring up racial discontent back to the north where he came from. with broken jaw is neces 1 sary"

PRESIDENT WONT GIVE: TKEE: SENATE: PROPOSED FACTS Drafts of Treaties With Ger many's Allies Withheld by
 Wilson. SAYS SUCH MOVE IS
 OUT OF THE QUESTION Stand Brings New Impasse Between the Chief Executive and the
 Foreign Relations Con-
 mitteemen.

Washington, Sept. 1.-The request of the foreign relations committee for latest drafts of the proposed treaties with Germany's allies has been refused by President Wilson on the ground that compliance would set a precedent encouraging senator ial encroachment on the presidential tower of treaty negotiation.
 In an exchange of letters made pub- lie today, MT. Wilson wrote that 1t was "out of the question" to accede to the committees suggestion, and Chairman Lodge replied that al though the treaties were closely con- nected with the treaty with Germany, the president undoubtedly had author ity to keep information about them from the senate if he chose.
 l The correspondent apparently brought another impasse between the president and the committee on the much debated subject of what information the senators should have in their consideration of the treaty with Germany. MT. Lodge and others have declared the committee could not act intelligently until all of the Versailles treaties were before it, but at the White House conference, MT. Wilson told the committee that the form to be taken by the four treaties under negotiation depended largely on the .senate's action, re. garding the instrument now before lit.
 Lodge Ceases Effort.
 A copy of the agreement of June 16, relative to the Rhine district, also was denied the committee. the presi- dent writing that it would only be- come pertinent after the treaty was ratified and that it's publication now might be embarrassing to other governments. To this. Senate, Lodge replied that it already had beer published in British white book and from that source had been circu lated in this country through tho Congressional Record.
 The correspondence was made pub lie by MT. Lodge, who indicated tha1 no further effort would be made b, the committee in the matter Tn, committee did not meet today, bu tomorrow it will resume it's hearing and probably will have anothe executive session to work on propos ed amendments and reservations t, the treaty with Germany.
 Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska the democratic leader, had given no tice of his intention to speak on tn treaty at tomorrow's session of tn senate. but it was said tonight tha he might postpone his address unt

Capt. John V. Harvis, son of MT. and Mrs. D. w. Cornstock of this city, has arrived home for a visit with relatives after two years ser- vice with the marine corps in France and Germany. Captain Harvfs is now serving in his thirteenth year in in the marine corps having left Pine Bluff in 1906 to enlist.
 Until the United States entered the war against Germany, he had served in all parts of the world.
 At the entry of the United States in the war, he was sent with the first of the marines to France. Dur ing his service there, he took part in practically every engagement the ma rines were in. His unit was in the trenches for the first time at Yer dun in March, 1918. Having held the line due length of time, his or ganization was withdrawn for two weeks, and stationed in rest billets not far from Paris. When the great German drive which threatened Paris started, his organization was hastily started toward the front. With cer- tain units of the marines inclueded in the regular army Second division, his organization took up stand at Bel leau Woods. It was there the Ameri- can troops shattered forever the power of the German offensive.
 He will remain here on a thirty day leave of absence when he will re- port back to Washington. After thirteen years service he stated he would continue in the marines.
 Capt. Harvis, prior to the time of leaving Pine Bluff to enlist, was a printer, and was employed at one time at The Graphic. He has num- Der of friends among the veteran printers of Pine Bluff who will re- member him.
