Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure cartarr-
hal deafness, and that is by a constitu-
ional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness IS
caused by an inflamed condition Of the
mucous lining Of the Eustaehian Tube
When this tube inflamed you have a
runbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
Is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
causedb by catarrh, which is an infiamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces Of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any ease of Catarrah Peafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medi

POINDEXTER DECLARES
NEW LEAGUE DRAFT IS
PERIL TO u. S. FREEDOM

Spokane, Wash, April 14.-De-
claring that the new draft of the
league Of nations covenant de-
stroys American independence and
is shameful affront to peace,
Senator Miles Poindexter has is
sued a long statement against the
document.
The senator says in part:
So far as reported the consti-
tuition still contains the provis-
ions of article 10, giving the
league and tribunals created un-
der it jurisdiction over every in
ternal dispute, including immigra-
ton and everything else, whether
justiciable or non -justiciable, a
provision utterly destructive of
American independence. 1t is still
as President Wilson has said, a
supreme sacrifice
ut still contains the agreement
o guarantee the personal and ter
ritorial independence of every ma
ton member of the league-a
cruel and unconscionable burden
to place upon the American
people"

BY RUDOLPH KOMMER.

Berne, April 13 Delayed) Omitted
PressD-War Minister Noske has
threatened to send a military expedi-
ton against Munich, according to ad-
vices received here today.
The situation in Munich is still con-
fusing. Reports of the overthrow of
the Soviet government have not been
confirmed, nor have later reports, of
a second coup restoring the Soviets
to power.
A Soviet republic is said to
have been proclaimed in Bruns-
wick. The change in government
was accomplished without blood
shed, it was said.
Communist rule in the Ruhr
district has been prevented only
through the overwhelming num-
bers of government troops occu-
pying that region.
Strikes are continuing throughout
Germany. Grave diggers have joined
the movement and there have been no
funerals in Stettin or Weld for two
days. New Bolsheviki attempts have
been made to obtain control of the
Kovno- Koenigsberg railroad for STRAIT
egic purposes.
Reappearance of sailors in the cities
of northern Germany is regarded as
an ominous sign. Spartacans are fe-
verishly attempting to join hands with
the communists in Munich.

This was pointed to as one sign of
the approaching event. Another is the
TACT that Premier Lloyd George left
for England today, after having public
ly announced he would not leave Paris
until an agreement was reached on all
the main issues.
THE THIRD SIGN.
A third sign is that the George
Washington is due in Brest shortly for
the purpose of carrying Presiden.
Wilson home. The French insist this
is an indication that he considers his
work nearly completed. A fourth is
the general understanding throughout
Paris that the big four will summon
the Germans to Versailles not later
than the end Of next week.
The latest version of the Saar
settlement is that France will be
mandate under tho league Of ma
tions over the whole territory,
which will be administered by a
council of five delegates, one of
which will be resident Of tho re-
sion. The French will police the
coal basin, the mines of which, ac.
cordins to tho version, will belong
to France in perpetuity.
CONCERNING PREPARATION.
In the matter of reparation accord
ing to this same source of information
France has been allotted 55 per cent
OF total provisional sum of 5000, :
100000 which Germany will be required
to pay in gold, materials and negoti-
able paper. 1t is pointed out however
that 1t is now impossible even to cal
culate the exact amount of reparation.
owing to fluctuations in the prices of
materials and values of securities.
In general, the tone of the French
has been better than in some weeks
only the extreme right and left con-
tinuing to growl. The Echo de Paris
accused Wilson of trying to placate
Germany. The Populaire, which is
extremely radical, charges the peace
conference, with the exception of Will
son, is trying to turn the league of ma
tions into war machine instead of
peace machine.

ENJOYS
SCHEDULED TO
RAISE CURTAIN
"Big Four" Members to Lift
Higher This Week Curtain of
Secrecy; Wilson May Issue
Statement Soon.
BY ROBERT J. BENDER

Washington April 14.-(United Press)
Peace conference statesmen are be-
ginning to inform the world of the
progress of their deliberations.
Following publication of summary
of the new league covenant Saturday,
members of the big four" this week
are to further lift the curtain of Sc
crecy and let their peoples know what
they are doing.
Lloyd George is scheduled to ad-
dress the British parliament to-
morrow on the peace work.. Presi-
dent Wilson, according to inforn,a.
tion available here, is also planning
to issue a statement. Others may
follow these.
SEEK HOME OPINIONS.
The purpose of these public utter
ances at this time is to get the reac-
ton from back home" on what is be-
ing done before it is too late. In
sense it is designed as fulfillment of
the promise of "open covenants openly
arrived at" Administration leaders
today were optimistic in their discus
sion of the league of nations coven-
ant as amended and believed it would
iieel an ItepupliCdll obJeCliOlS.
"The changes in the covenant are
very satisfactory" said Senator Hitch
cock. II think they must review the
objections raised by senators. Presi-
dent Wilson has won a great victory"
MYERS HAS HOPES.
Senator Myers, Montana, who OBJ
jected to the league covenant original
ly because it failed to safeguard the
Monroe Doctrine, sees hope in the new
draft, though still in doubt as to the
exclusive right of the United States to
regulate it's immigration.
Senator Lodge was in Boston.
General discussion of the officially
announced amendments to the league
constitution, however, was still some
what guarded today. This was par
ticularly true of those whose opposi-
ton was based on objections which
may have been removed by the alter
ations made in Paris.
The generally expressed view among
the less extreme opponents Of the
league, however. was that the amend
ment will probably pave the way to
senate acceptance, unless some new
obstacles present themselves
