"Yes, we are," the woman replied. q wish we could vote on the question 40 times for t."
 Late in the afternoon the presidents train stopped at Shasta Springs, at the foot of Mount Shasta, and MT. and Mrs. Wilson took a short stroll. The place was almost deserted except for members of the presidential party and the president and his wife were allowed to go for their walk without the usual guard of secret service men.
 Before the train started the president and Mrs. Wilson went in to see Robert T. Small, correspondent of the Philadel- phia Public Ledger confined to his stateroom or the train by injuries he received in yesterdays automobile ac- cident at Portland. They expressed a hope for his quick recovery and Dr. Grayson the presidents physician, as- sured them Small would be all right in a few days.
 Associated Press dispatches from Honolulu quotips Japanese sources to the effect that the United States had asked the Japanese government to set a definite time limit for the return of Kio Chow to China were shown Presi- dent Wilson en route to California this afternoon.
 The president declined to comment on the news reports, but it was under stood that President Wilson has not yet received any information from the state department relative to any action it may have taken concerning the Shan tung situation.

Hitchcock and Lodge Engage

amendment be passed over as senators who desired to be heard on 1t were absent.
 Hitchcock and Lodge Engage
 Senator Hitchcock and Senator Lodge then engaged in another colloquy, the latter reiterating that he would not at- tempt by artificial means to delay con- sideration, but that there would be due consideration" so everybody could be heard. There was no objection in the end, and the amendment was tempo rarily passed over.
 After the clerk had started into the next article, Senator Lodge stopped the reading with motion to adjourn until Friday. Senator Reed, democrat, Miss ouri, gave notice today that he would discuss the treaty then and while for nal reading may continue this week, Senator Lodge said he had promised members, including two democratic senators that there would be no vote until next week.
 All things considered, the treaty had virtually full days run, starting off with three-hour address by Senator Sherman, republican, Illinois. It was evident that the senate was in fight ing frame of mind as Senator Sherman was interrupted today by Senator Hitchcock and Senator Walsh, demo- crat, Montana and answered by Sem ator McKellar. democrat, Tennessee.
 President Defended
 After Senator McKellar had delivered a spirited defense of the president, Sen- ator Lodge, calling attention to the presidents statement in an address last night at Portland, Oregon, that the sen- ator in 1915 favored a league of nations, quoted from more than a score of speeches by the president to show, he said, inconsistencies on the latter's part. Change of mind had nothing to do with the merits of the case, the sen ator declared, and his closing statement that the United States was the best hope of mankind and would remain so, provided it did not become involved in foreign entanglements was vigorously applauded.
 Senator Williams followed Senator Lodge and said there were constant changes before and after this country entered the war, land that the presi- dent, with magnificent common sense, had met them as they arose."

LOCAL GIRL IS IN
 STORN- SWEPT C|TY

At least one Phoenix home is watch ing the news from flood and storm swept Corpus Christi, Texas, with tense anxiety. And somewhere in the Texas city is a former Phoenix girl whom her parents here have been as yet unable to communicate.
 MT. and Mrs. R. H. Griffin, 521 North Second street, have for two days been watching the wires from Texas with worry for their daughter, Mrs. o. G. Flemister, made her home with her husband in Corpus Christi. Up to last night no answer had been received to wires seeking assurance of the safety of the former Phoenix girl. Ap- prehension was allayed, however, by the known probability that telegraph communication between the wrecked city and the mainland has not been restored.

 You have to admit it-you didn't tell her!
 There's no use telling her you love her. No use offering her pretty jewelry or tender. fragrant flowers. It simply will not do!
 If you had only told her of that charming, fetching Tricotine dress you saw only the other day in Switzer's style shop window there would be no necessity of your being driven to cover-now. It was only $39.75 and you knew it and you knew, too, how pretty it would hang on her shoulders.
 Now, she has to content herself by glaring at it on another woman. Surely you'll fortify yourself now against any further feminine bar- ages by telling her of Switzer's present sale which continues until October. All the pretty things for Autumn are included. Even silken Undies, coats, dresses, blouses and suits.
 Tell her now-that's the most dig nified armistice.

IMPROVEMENT IN LONDON STRIKE All Tubes and Underground Lines Still Tied
 Up.

London, Feb. 5-There was no inn provement today in the strike situa- ton in London. All the tubes and underground lines except the metro politan, which has only one line run ning into the city, were still tied up.
 The hotels and restaurants. while able to replace a few of their servants, were offering only meagre limitations of their regular menus.
 Thousands of people had to trudge long distances to work through slush an inch deep caused by a sudden thaw followed by rain during the night. Some government officers and large business concerns assisted their staffs by running motor lorries from the outlying districts to central London.
 Today will decide whether the staffs of the electrical power stations will join the strikers. According to the authorities it makes little difference what action is taken because the elec- trica1 power engineers association has promised to keep the stations in operation. while there are many men on the executive starfs of the big companies capable of taking the places of the regular workmen.
 More men returned to work today Tn Glasgow, while the presence of Lord Pierrie, controller of merchant ship building in Belfast. gives some nope of a settlement there.

Mir Broder said the accused had never denied his guilt or sought to escape it's consequences. Chapin received his sentence without word :, Chapin was connected with the bank about 30 years up to his arrest a few weeks ago. He was greatly respected and the revelation of his embezzlement was a shock to the city.
