SUBMITS FRENCH
TREATY TO SENATE
PRESIDENT SENDS MESSAGE, IN
STEAD OF APPEARING
IN PERSON.
READ IN PUBLIC SESSION
TkO Message ELECTED No Comment
and Was at Once Referred TO
the Committee on For
elan Relations.

Washington. = The cpecial treaty
With France, promising immediate
American aid to that republic in re
)elling any unprovoked attack by Ger
many, was sent to the senate by Presi
Dent Wilson.
In HIS message urging ratification
the president declared the promise
Temporary supplement" to the treaty
with Germany and the league of ma
lions covenant, designed to give to
France protection in an emergency
without awaiting the advice of the
league to act" He pointed out that
, similar promise had been made by
Great Britain and said that by the
obligation the United States but par.
TALLY discharged a debt to France
which nothing can pay" in full,
The senate received the message
In open session and referred the treaty
without discussion to the foreign rela
tons committee.
There was no reference in the mes
sage to the senate criticism, which
was based on a clause of the treaty
requiring that II be submitted to the
senate of the United States at the
same time as the treaty Of Yer.
sailles," presented by the president on
July 10. The message did refer to
this clause, however, saying that 1t
was provided that the two treaties be
"the subject Of consideration at the
same time" and adding that as op.
portunity now had been offered to ex.
anime the Versailles treaty II was
opportune to present the other.
Departing from his custom Of de.
livering his message to congress In
person, the president transmitted the
treaty and his request for ratification
by messenger. Both became public
by the senates unanimous agreement
to remain in open session while the
message was read and to print It and
the treaty in the record. The request
that this course be followed was made
by Chairman Lodge of the foreign re-
lations committee.

WILSON ADVISES SENATE
Are Operating Under Agreement With
Japan-ExpedItIon Has Orders
To Not Interfere In Rus
sian Affairs.

Washington. - President Wilson in.
formed the senate In response to q
resolution by Senator johnson, repub-
1ican of California, that the presence
of American troops in Siberia was a
vital element" in the restoration and
maintenance of traffic on the Siberian
railroad, and that under the agreement
with Japan they could be withdrawn
only when the American railway ex.
perts operating the road were with.
drawn.
The president said Siberia could be
protected from a further period of
chaos and anarchy only by keeping
the railroad open, and that lacking
the prime essentials of life, the peo-
pie there were looking to the United
States and the allies for economic as
sistance. This already is being ex-
tended and additional supplies are to
be sent forward.
Rowing bands, having no connection
with any organized government in
Russia, are menacing the railroad, the
president said. and consequently its
protection by the military is neces-
sary. American troops, he said, now
are engaged in guard duty at Vladi-
yostok and around Verchne, Udinsk.
A small body is also at Hardin,
The original purposes Of the Amer
lean military expedition, Mr.. Wilson
wrote, we're two fold:
The saving OF the Cgecho-Slovak
forces and the steadying OF the ef-
forts OF the Russians at selfdefense
or the establishment of law and or
der in which they might be willing
To accept assistance.
Maj. Gen. Graves, commanding the
expedition of 5000 men, was spe-
officially directed not to interfere in
Russian affairs, the president said,
Sut to support, wherever necessary,
John H. Stevens, the American rail-
way engineer, who is carrying out the
work of rehabilitating the Siberian
railroad under the direction OF the in
terallied committee.

REJECTED FOR DRAFT

Albuquerque, N. NJ, Sept. 22E
Names OF New Mexico men rejected
during the draft and discharged from
army camps are now available at the
office OF the New Mexico Public
Health association and are being ar
ranged by counties to demonstrate
that tuberculosis is on the increase
among the native people Of New Mex
leo and that the health campaign
against p%reventable disease outlined
by the association must be carried
through if the health claims of the
state are to be supported,
The rejected and returned soldier
suffering from tuberculosis is one OF
the chief factors which has rendered
the public health problem Of the
United States acute, according to the
findings OF the National tuberculosis
association. This organization, the
principal society in America to com
bate the white plague, derives most OF
its revenues from the annual sale OF
Red Cross seals. The New Mexico
Public Health association, its allied Or
g~anization in this state, is entirely
supported by the seal sale.
Tabulation Of draft figures showed
that 69,D00 men were rejected because
OF this disease when they underwent
medical examinations. Over $4,000
were turned back to civilian life from
the camps and environments. In actual
cases amounted approximately to 3D.

A NEW MECHANICAL
STATE COLLEGE PLANT
WILL HAVE STEAM AND GAS EN-.
CINE AND OTHER EQUIPMENT;
AN IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT

State College, N. M. Sept. 22.-
Contract has Deen let for the com
pletion of another unit Of the en-
cheering laboratories at the New
Mexico College Of Agriculture and
Mechanic Arts. This completes the
south wing OF the engineering build
ing. The laboratory will be 100 by
40 feet with a power house at the
end which will house the new boiler
and equipment to be used for in
struction purposes. This building is
especially designed for a mechanical
laboratory and viii house the steam
and gas engine equipment that for a
long time has been housed in the
original engineering building which
was constructed in the early 90s
1t is patterned largely after the new
engineering laboratory at the Iowa
state College at Amfes, Iowa, and it
will contain some Of the best equip
ment for mechanical engineering
study and experimentation in the
southwest. The steam plant VIII be
a model boiler room and will supply
power for driving a large two stage
air compressor, a steam turbine and
steam Corliss engine, besides num-
eros other engines and pumps, The
arrangements will be made for con.
densing the steam used in this ma
chinery and other special equipment
used to completely study steam en-
~gineering.
For the study OF gas engineering
there will be a variety OF gas and
oil engines together with a test plant
for automobiles. This test plant will
make it possible to completely study
the power developed, fuel used, etc
of any kind of car. The laboratory
will be the only one Of its kind in
the State Of New Mexico and IN
fact, is as we'll equipped as any in
the southwest 1t is interesting to
know that at the completion Of the
building there will be a total floor
space Of over 1900 square feet OF
laboratories, shops, drawing rooms,
etc, devoted entirely to engineering
instruction at the State college.
The enrolment for the coming year
will be the largest in the history of
the college and although every prep
every facility Of the school to meet
a ration is being made, It will tax
the demand.
