amounting to $24O for the fscal
year beginning July 1, is assured as
the result of action by the Senate
on the Legislative bill
That bill was passed by the Senate
with the provision recommended by
the Appropriations Committee for
the $2z0 bonus.
lnasmuch as the House has also de-
eided on the $240 increase it has now
become a certainty, provided, as ex-
pected, the legislative bill becomes
q law before March 4.
Applies To S2,5OO Pay Or Less.
The increase applies to those whose
basic pay is $500 or less. Employees

however, will get an increase of $I20
only, as that Is supposed to equalize
them with other Government en-
ployes.
Senator France OF Maryland pro-
posed an increase OF $500, but this
went out on q point Of order.
While refusing to give the clerks
$3.50 more q year. the Senate, on
motion OF Senator Calder of New
York, supported by Senator Pomer-
enc OF Ohio, voted each Senator an
extra clerk at $1,000 q year.
Senator La Toilette criticised the
policy OF raising the pay Of higher
ups" but refusing to give Govern
ment employees q percentage Of in
crease that will sustain life"
He warned the Senate that IL need
not be surprised IL unrest increased
while Congress continued the old
policy OF raising the pay Of high
Government officials and refusing
proper demands Of the rank and file
OF the workers. He showed that in
ten years a so per cent increase had
been allowed members of Congress,
the President, the Cabinet, and other
high officials

allowed for the current year. will

or attended by a sensation of scald-

Salts from any reliable pharmacy
and take a tablespoonful in a glass

days and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia and has
been used for generations to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to activity, also to neutralize the
acids in urine so it no longer causes
irritation, thus ending bladder dis

The minister said: at is complete

worst possible point of time for MAX
ing an alliance with Germany in Octo-
Der, 1918, when Germany was smash

Berlin, July 21.-The entire staff
of the famous Schuet2en corps has
been placed on the retired list one Of
its brigades has been ASSIGNED to
Hamburg, and another will go TO
Westphalia, the third remaining IN
Ferlin. The entire corps will he con-
tlolled as an integral part Of the re-
organ zed republican reichsWehr.
This disposition of the corps, which
did more than any volunteer Organl-
zaton to put down revolutions striknS
and Spartacism in GERMANY marks
an important advance by the govern
ment, for it has furnished propa
ganda material fiercely charging the
German republic with ingratitude,
and otherwise fomenting discomfort.
Socialists see in the complaints Of
the reactionaries proof that the mill
tarists had planned to use the new
republican army as a breeder for
n.cnarchism and they have been
checkmatcd by the government and
are discounted.
Germany's unstable equilibrium
continues. new troubles developing as
fast as old ones subside. Berlin was
hardly relieved by the collapse today
of the street car and subway strike,
when it was menaced with milk
strike. Spartacist agitators have been
ST ccessful in creating dSaffectiOn
among the milkmaids and other dairy
f"nds in the provinces.
The government is even more wor-
red over the possibility thar the Spar
t0cans may bring about an internal
food blockade, as a strike of agri-
cultural laborers is developing in
various districts, notably in Posen and
East Prussia.
Revolutionary politics is behind the
farm hand strike. Beaten and cowed
ir the cities by the military measures
of Minister Noske, the Spartacans are
trying their luck on the farms, A
rote Of official hope is sounded in L
promise to the German people of pure
soap in September.

pending action on the Versailles doc

the request because he considered it
of so much Importance to the bust
ness interests of the country" that the
United States be represented on the
commission.

sissippi, offered a resolution declaring
the committee willing to approve such
appointment. but Chairman Lodge
and other republican members OPP
posed it, while Senator Knox, repubi-

My Dear Senator:
There are some things in Connec-
ito with the execution of the treaty
of peace which can hardly await the
action of the several governments
which must act with regard to the
ratification of the treaty, and the
chief of these is the functioning of
the reparation commission. 1t is of
such Importance to the business in
terests of the United States. as well
as to the nations with which we are
associated, that the United States
should lie represented on that commits
sion and represented now while the
work of the commission is taking
shape, that | am taking the liberty OIL
writing to ask if you will not be kind
enough to consult the committee on
foreign relations with regard to the
particular appointment and say to
them that l would very much appre-
ciate their approval of my appointing
Professionally representative Of the
