line.

Wales landed at the historic Battery,
where a few weeks before he had been

HOUSE PASSES
ESCH RAIL BILL
Measure Extends Governmental
Guaranty for Six Months
After Return.
OK. D BYvOTE OF 2Os TOI59
Democrats Make Passage of Measure
Party Issue to Be Carried Into
the National Campaign
of 1920.

Washington, Nov. 19.-On virtually
party vote of 203 to 159, the house
passed and sent to the senate the Esch
railroad reorganization bill. Final ac-
ton came after six days of continuous
debate.
The Democrats made the passage of
the measure party issue as a protest
against the section which continues
the guaranteed operating income of
the railroads for six months after the
termination of federal control. 1t was
openly declared by the Democratic
leaders that this issue will be carried
INTO the national campaign of 1920
A motion by Representative Sims of
Tennessee to recommit the bill with
Instructions to strike out the guaranty
sections was defeated by a vote of 203
to 159.
The measure goes to the senate, but
1t will not be taken up there until the
regular session in December
An effort was made without success
to cause the house to reverse the ac-
ton of the committee of the whole in
rejecting the arbitration plan of the
original Esch bill and substitute for it
the Anderson-Sweet scheme approved
by organized labor. The labor forces
again showed their supremacy, the
amendment being approved by vote
of 253 to 112.
The bill as passed provides for the
return of the roads to their owners,
extends the governmental guaranty for
six months after the return, authorizes
the railroads to borrow funds from the
government, extends present rates I'M
changed by the proper authorities. and
broadens the authority of the inter-
state commerce commission in many
respects, including control over the
issuance of securities.
Substantially all amendments made
in committee of the whole were APP
proved by the house.
Especial objection was made to the
provision for "a fair return upon the
value of the property" on the theory
that this seemed to imply the recogni-
ton of validity of watered stock. Those
favOring the rule of rate making in
sisted it was necessary in order to es-
tablish the credit of the railroads.

PACT VOTE TOMORROW
COMPROMISE IN SIGHT TO SAVE
THE TREATY.
Senator Lodge Said to Be Ready ia
Modify Preamble and Break
Deadlock.

washington, Nov. 19.-Compromise
moves to rescue the peace treaty
from threatened deadlock made such
progress that its friends said it had
more than an even chance for life.
so Tar as 1t had taken definite form
the compromise program called for a
hnal vote Thursday and pointed TO-
ward acceptance of the reservations
of the foreign relations committee
without the requirement that thew
must be assented TO affirmatively by
the other powers.
The way to compromise was opened
by the group of mild reservation Re-
publicans, holding the balance of bow
er, who served notice on the Repub-
lican and Democratic leaders that they
would not put up the bars entirely to
modification of the committee reserva-
tlonS, but would stand out against and
defeat the administrations parliament
tary program.
With this the mild reservationists
retired to the background. The re-
suit was that Republican Leader
Lodge and Democratic Leader Hitch
cock faced each other and laid all
their cards on the table.
The conference between the two
leaders brought no final decision as to
the language of a compromise ratifica-
ton, but developed an agreement that
the Democrats would have the op-
portunity for which they have
fought, to secure a showdown vote on
the question of unreserved ratifica-
tion.
This vote, Mr.. Lodge said, would be
permitted before the roll call on the
committee resolution.

WITH EYE TO DOUBLE DUTY
Frock EminentIy Suitable for Present
Wear Might Also Be Available
Next Summer.

Occasionally one sees a very good
looking frock which with a few alter
atoms could perhaps be worn next
summer. Take for instance, a draped
model in net Such a frock could,
with its full draperies easily have its
skirt widened a bit should the wider
skirts appear. as has been predicted.

good example. At the left side the

material for a much wider skirt

MAY ACT WITHOUT U. S.
ALLIED POWERS PLAN PEACE
LEAGUE WITH AMERICA OUT.
Quasi Organ of Lloyd George Says
Other Nations Must Go Ahead
Same View in Paris.

London, Nov. 19.-Commenting upon
reservations to the Versailles treaty
by the United States senate and Pres
ident Wilson's threat to withdraw the
pact, the Chronicle, which is supposed
sometimes to reflect the views of Pre-
mier Lloyd George, says:
"Unless the league is to fall alto
gether, other nations must go ahead
for some years without Americas par
ticipation, and we hope they will
promptly decide to do so.
''Great Britain and France have
been very anxious not to hurt Ameri-
can susceptibilities and there is no
foundation for the rumor suggesting
they have addressed representations
to Washington regarding reservations
In justice to our own peoples and Eu-
rope, however. we cannot delay in get
ting to work with the league"
IF the senate action stands" says
@. 4. McCurdy, M. p, "it knocks the
bottom out of the league as security
for the worlds peace. We shall have
to find our security in other ways
and Austen Chamberlain may be faced
with the painful task of once more
revising our naval and military esti-
mates and this time in an upward di-
rection."
Paris, Nov. 19.-Regardless of the
American governments attitude, the
peace treaty of Versailles will be put
in force, according TO the prevalent
view here following receipt of the re-
port that President Wilson might
withdraw the treaty from the United
States senate.
Whatever happens, the feeling in
French circles is that France cannot
meet the German plenipotentiaries
again and French opinion is that Italy
and Great Britain have a like feeling.

LANDSLIDE AGAINST REDS

Paris, Nov. 19.-The election is a
veritabe landslide against the social
lists. 1t means not only the downfall
of the disorganizing radical element
in France but the beginning of a con-
certed final attack against anarchy
all over Europe.
The crushing defeat dealt to the ex-
tremists at the polls in France gives
confidence to all European govern
ments, which need no longer be fear
full of red revolutions, thanks to the
common sense of the French voters. A
policy of economy and production to
be adopted by the new French govern
ment will open a new era of conf
dence and industry.
