Replying to arguments that by

ever, that no constitutional power

The Monroe doctrine is rein

continued, because it is accorded

The contention that the door oil

TREATY y
IN Q U|RY TO
BROADEN OUT
Senate Foreign Relations
Committee Announces Seized.
uIe Of Hearings That May
Last Two Weeks.

Washington. Aug. ,2s,--Extending
the scope Of its public inquiry re-
garding the peace treaty. the senate
foreign relations committee an
nounced Monday night a schedule
of hearings that promise to occupy
most of its time for the next two
weeks and to lead into the intricacies
of political and territorial prob
lens in several parts of the world.
The disputed questions to be
touched upon in the eight-day sched-
ule include the disposition of Fiume,
of the Aland islands and of the Ger
man colonies in Africa and the
claim of Ireland for independence.
On the list of witnesses are repre-
sentatives of the Italians, Jugo-
Slavs, Hungarian Armenians, Irish,
Greeks, Lithuanians, Ukrainians, Es-
thonians, Let's and American ne
groes.
Under the arrangement the time
to be devoted to work on the amend
ments to the treaty this week will
be reduced from three days to two,
Thursday having been set aside to
hear the negro delegation on the
question of the African colonies.
Chairman Lodge, announcing the
decision, after consultation with
other committee members, said the
hearings seemed essential to an in
telligent judgment on the manifold
provisions of the treaty. Demo-
cratic members, however, who said
there had been an understanding
that the committee would complete
its report to the senate this week,
charged again the treaty was need
lessly held up by the committee ma
jority.
1t was agreed that if the plan were
carried out the treaty probably
would not come out of commit
tee before the end of the week.

REPORT SAYS
SERBIANS ARE
MODIFYING
Do So to Counterfeit Rouman-
ian Mobilization on Bonat
and Temesvar Line

Paris, Aug. 2s.--A report re-
ceived in Paris says that the Serb
ians are mobilizing their forces in
Banat and Temesvar. N. P. Pae-
hitch, ex-pfemier and head of the
Serb delegation, says that the Serbs
are reinforcing their troops on the
inside line through Banat, estab-
lished by the supreme council. be-
cause the Roumanians are concen-
trating on the other side. causing
great agitation among the popula-
ton Of considerable part of the
territory which is preponderately
Serbian for a considerable distance
inside the area attributed to Rot

The talk of mobilization, however,

There are, no Serbian troops in
Banat except in the territory at
tributed to Serbia by the supreme
council, and the number there, he
says, is only such as prudence de-
mands.

THAT STILL, SMALL VOICE

Clarence III. Mackay said at BAN

wonderful are the uses Of the tele-
phone. l know a broker who, looking
idly from his window one afternoon,
saw a sight that made him almost
blush. Yes there could be no doubt
about it. Miss Daisy Meade, the beau
tiful stenographer, was sitting in old
Judge Hargar's lap.
1.-THE lawyer thought moment, then
he rang the old judge up. The judge,
with peevish look, uncoiled his arm
from Miss Daisy's waist to take down
the receiver.
".Hello. Who is itT he growled.
"'You old sinner, aren't you asham-
ed?' the lawyer said.
1.-THE judge gave violent start. In
voluntarily he pushed his lovely bur-
den off his knee.
"'Yes, l should think you would
push her off, the lawyer went on.
Look at her! Hair all tumbled! We
know, don't we, who's responsible for
that?'

warm clothing and supplies Of every
kind, they are prepared to give that
doughty old warrior the laugh.
If the shades Of those soldiers OF
Napoleon's army who persisted on the
historical retreat from Moscow are
still in Russia they must be amazed
at the extensiveness Of the arrange
guard the allied fighting men now in
that country. Long before the soldiers
reached Russia the allied governments
had completed arrangements for their
arrival, the experience of four years
of caring for vast forces of men under
all sorts Of conditions, added to the ex
pert knowledge of military men famil-
lar with the requirements of Rus
sian campaign, making it possible to
provide for every conceivable contin-
gency.
Red Cross Sends Supplies.
Directly In the wake of the soldiers
and supplementing the efforts Of the
allied governments in their behalf fol-
lowed the American Red Cross with
reserve stocks Of foods and supplies
and the comforts that fighting men
have come to expect from the Red
Cross. Two shiploads of supplies Of
all sorts provided by the American
Red Cross reached Archangel late in
September, one vessel, the Ascutney,
which left America, carrying 1900
tons of food, drugs, soap and miscel-
laneous articles; the other, British
transport, loaded In London, having
on board 200 additional tons of sup
plies. Not satisfied with providing
this amount Of reinforcement the
American Red Cross continued to
transfer supplies from London to
Archangel, allied war vessels keep
ing the harbor at that point open for
the supply ships to enter. The build
ing up of the reserve supply stocks
has been discontinued, officers in
charge Of the expeditionary force hav-
ing expressed the opinion that every
possible emergency has been provided
for.
The cargo carried by the Ascutney
was valued at $1,025,038. A glance at
the immense quantity and the wide va
1iety of foodstuffs on the list will
make 1t clear that the American boys
are not going to lack proper nourish-
ment this winter. Some Of the items
in the Red Cross cargo follow:
Sugar, 100000 pounds.
Chocolate, $4,000 pounds.
Cocoa, $4,000 pounds.
