REDS STILL FIGHT
BACK;ROCHESTER
MAN FIRED UPON

centralia, Wash, Nov 14-While
crossing the Scatter creek bridge sew
eral miles west of the city last night,
Clyde Patton of Rochester was fired
at three times.
All of the bullets struck the auto
mobile in which Patton was riding.
Following the attempted murder or
George Paxton, while he was cross
ing the bridge between Centralia and
Chehalis early Thursday morning, the
shots directed at Patton made the fact
stand out more significantly that the
radicals who are being sought in this
vicinity are not altogether on the de-
fensive.
The large American flag which flies
from a hill near the heart of the city
of Chehalis was ripped by rifle bull
let yesterday. The shot Was evidently
fired at long range.

This was the OPINION N autnlllslrd-
ton quarters here today based on the
presidents own words, frequently re-
iterated, during his recent tour OF the
United States Whether the president
then will carry out his threat to send
leading treaty opponents, including
Senator Lodge to Weimar, to negotiate
a new treaty remains to be seen.
Wilson Gives Warming.
Wilson has served notice that he
would consider adoption of the reser-
yation to article 10 rejection OF the
whole treaty. There is nothing to lndl-
cate that he has changed this attitude.
When Senator Hitchcock recently call
ed at the White House Wilson told
him the treaty would be unacceptable
it certain of the pending reservations
were attached to it and although Hitch
cock never has specified what these
certain reservations" are. 1t is gener
ally known here that the qualification
of article 10 is one of them.
What the Hitchcock forces in tn
senate hopeto do is to reject the reso
lution of ratification containing tn
Questionable reservation then propos
a new resolution of ratification whic
they expect the opposition to detea
and then get together on a compro
i, mise. But the strongest members
: the opposition hold that rejection
the, reservation now in process ofy1ol
nation will constitute rejection OF IN
treaty and end the whole AFFAIR. AN
IL they succeed in securing adoptlo
: of the resolution containing the OF
iectionable clause the president WI
have none of it, unless he goes back
his words and completely revers
himself.
Plans Are Framed.
The administration forces are Soii
ahead with plans for what they W
do in the event the resolution OF rati
cation containing the reservations w
son considers obje. .'tiona5le lails 10 I
/. two-thirds vote and is thereby defes
n cd. In that case. they disclosed tod'
