Teaches A Million To Sing
National Anthem

Boston, Mass. June 10, - Hen
ry Rankin, of the naval training
station, claims to have taught
more persons to sing THE Star
Spangled Banner" than any
other individual in the entire
country in the past two decades.
Up to few months ago he was
the musical director at the sta
tion. Ill health caused him to
take up other work.
Mr., Rankin states that he does
not feel that it is an overestima-
ton in saying that he has taught
or directed the national anthem
to more than a million persons.
His largest chorus was in Au-
gust 1917, when he led nearly
l4,000 voices in singing the ma
tional anthem accompanied by a
band of 1875 pieces.

5000 of 1000 Jews
In Proskulov Slain
Report of Massacre Near Odessa
in February Just Received
in This Country

Five thousand out of total of 1000
Jews in Proskulov, near Odessa, were
killed in a pogrom that lasted from
2 to 6 o'clock the afternoon of Feb
ruary Is.
A long delayed report of this massa-
ere has just been received by Jewish
relief agencies in this country and was
made public last night by the Ameri
can Jewish Relief Committee for Suf-
ferers from the War, at 15 East For
tieth Street. The report is one of the
few indications of actual conditions in
the Ukraine that have emerged from
the obscurity enveloping that country.
Word of the pogrom was contained
in letter received by the organization
from Rabbi Aaron Tetelbaum, its re-
lief agent in Constantinople.
"Jews are being massacred daily in
the Ukraine" his letter says. "In
Proskulov, near Odessa, 5000 out Of
1000 Jews were killed February Is be-
tween and in the afternoon. Most
of those surviving were seriously
wounded. Report of this pogrom,
brought to me by handful of refugees
who just arrived from Odessa, has
since been confirmed by official authori-
ties and by Russian newspapers"

Neto York Tribune

WASHINGTON, May 10--The pro-
posed alliance between the United
States, England and France for the
protection of France against future
German aggression was indorsed in
a statement issued here to-day by
Senator Cummins, of Iowa, who de-
clared that he "would much prefer to
protect France than to enter into any
agreement by which we were to pro-
tect all the nations of the world"
:. Senator Cummins's comment on the
@covenant. although guarded, ncverthe-
less indicated plainly that he would
favor amending it. The original OBJ
jections to the first covenant proposed
by President Wilson have been "partly
removed he said. at may safely be
said there will be an energetic effort
on the part of those of us who feel
that Article x is still Objectionable to
write into the resolution of ratification
language which will c1ear up ON.
doubts
ANY comment I make on the league
of nations" said Senator Cummins,
land the treaty of peace l wish to
preface by saying | have not examined
carefully the provisions of the treaty
and closer reading may clarity my
ideas.
Pleased at Peace Terms
''The heavy conditions imposed upon
Germany are gratifying. l hope they
may prove to be so drastic that they
will effectually prevent Germany from
repeating her atrocities and crimes.
"As to the suggested alliance for
the protection of France, l am willing
to defend any country against Ger
many and especially France. | am
in favor of making the future safe
for France, because of our sympathy
for France and her people and partly
because that was one of the reasons
we entered the war | would much
prefer to protect France than to enter
into any agreement by which we were
to protect all the nations of the world.
Had Three Objections
when President Wilson presented
the first draft of the league covenant
l had three objections to the proposed
constitution, and | said if they were
removed | would support the proposal.
These objections were: First, the
jurisdiction exercised by the legisla-
tive council of the league over our
purely internal policies might give rise
to controversy between ourselves and
other countries. Second, Article X.
Third, the obligation of the United
States to accept from the league of
nations the mandatory for admins
tration of foreign country or people
1.-TWO of these objections have been
partly removed. There has been no
attempt to amend or change Article
X, and it is just as Objectionable
as ever. 1t safely may be said there
will be an energetic effort on the
part of these of us who feel that way
to write into the resolution Of rati-
tication language that will clear up
our doubts.

and the covenant of the league of ma
tons should be separated"

Venezuela Forces Rout
Invaders From Colombia
RevOlutionists Abandon Arms
and Dead in Their Hur,
ried Oenart11re

CARACAS, Venezuela, May 10 (Ey
The Associated Press) .-Revolutionists
who invaded Venezuela from Colombia
late in April were defeated completely
in fighting on April % and April 80
and have retired into Colombia, the
government announced to-day.
The revolutionists, led by Ernesto
Livares, crossed the frontier at Urona
and San Autoned, after an unsuccess-
full attempt to assassinate General
Eustoquio Gomez, Governor of the
State of Tachira
The revolutionists abandoned their
arms and their dead in their retirement
and left prisoners in the hands of the
government forces. General Rugeles,
the government commander, was killed
after successful defence of his posi-
tions.
Public opinion condemns the attempt
to start civil war. The revolutionary
effort, from all indications, received no
support anywhere in Venezuela.
