Senate Weeds Out
Two Amendments
To the Relief Bill

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Criticsm
of President Wilson and Food Admin
lstrator Hoover was continued to-day
in the Senate during debate on the
administration bill appropriating $780,
100000 for food relief in Europe, and
the Senate again failed to reach a vote.
Disposition of amendments was begun,
however, and Administration leaders
hope to pass the measure tomorrow.
Without a record vote the Senate re-
Jected the amendment by Senator Pen
rose, of Pennsylvania. Republican, pro-
viding for distribution of the fund by
a commission to be named by the Presi-
dent, subject to confirmation by the
Senate and to be responsible to Con-
gress. The amendment by Senator AS
hurst, of Arizona, Democrat, authoriz-
ing bonus of sixty days pay to pri-
Yates and commissioned officers
discharged from the army met a simi
lar fate. Senator Ashurst vainly sought
a record vote and said he would again
call up the amendment for final dis
position
Wilson's "Pomp" Criticised
While supporting the bill, Senator
Lenroot, Of Wisconsin, Republican,
said he was sorry that the President
had not remained in Paris when he
went there. He deplored RESERVATIONS

Ing Mr.. Wilson's visit, especially to
England, and said the "pomp and cere-
mony'' attending the peace conference
rs dong just vas much to feed Bolshe
vlsm as food can do to prevent it,"
Senator Townsend, Of Michigan, Re-
publican, led the attack on the Pres-
dent. declaring that his absence was
causing neglect of interests at home and
delaying emergency legislation. He
also asserted that the President was the
only American peace commissioner and
that he was not keeping the country
informed as to his plans.
Wants War Finished First
Nothing has been done," the Mich-
gan Senator said, Except private and
secret conferences by separate little
groups in Europe. ! believe the Presi-
dent ought to finish his business of
leave all these other questions to be
settled later"
Senator Townsend disclaimed opposi-
tion to a league Of nations if it could
be formed without endangering Amer
lean rights. which he doubted. He de-
MED that there is any real danger of
war recurring. declaring the four great
nations now in control could prevent
or crush further outbreaks.
The proposed appropriation, the Sem
ator said, was "a bribe to buy the
good behavior of Bolshevism." designed
to influence peoples of small nations
represented at the peace conference.

the United States entering into any
compact that oblgate us to keep our

PREPARING WEATHER
CHART FOR AVIATORS

LOS ANGELES, July (by Associ-
ated Press).- DIR. Ford A. Carpenter,
meteorologist in charge of the weather
bureau here, is preparing a weather
chart of the Pacific ocean to be used
by the Pacific Aero Club in mapping
proposed aerial route from Venice,
Cal, to Sydney, Australia.
DR.. Carpenter undertook the work
at the suggestion of Thomas III. Ince,
who has offered $4,000 to the first
aviator to fly across the Pacific ocean.
DR.. Carpenter is author of "The
Aviator and the Weather Bureau" and
is said to be the first scientific weather
observer to make a systematic study
of meteorological conditions in actual
flight.
II believe that weather conditions
are better on the Pacific ocean for an
airplane cruise than on the Atlantic"
Or. Carpenter said. "There is less
fog, and the difference in day and
night temperatures is not so radical"

pected to reap rich harvest from the
Willard-Dempsey fight lost heavily on
their investment. But 5000 worth of
peanuts were sold and $40 worth of
lemonade

cause the soldier ushers would not per-
nit the vendors to go among the
crowd with lemonade. The crowd re-

barge and two tugboats for $490 to
carry passengers to the arena. They

his uniform to Uncle Sam before the

The soldier will be permitted to
wear only the particular uniform
