ly collided with something just be-
fore reaching the Nevada and they

BIG WEEK SEEN
BEFORE PARIS
PEACE PARLEY
Most Eventful Time at
Hand-Foe Gets
Pact Saturday?

Paris, April 2S.-(Havas).-
The report OF the economic
mission of the peace confer
ence, the Echo d. Paris says,
contains clauses for insertion
in the preliminary peace treaty
that Germany shall give the al
lied and assOcia ed nations the
treatment Of most favored ma
tiOns without any reciprocal
ton.
(By the Associated Press).
What promises to be perhaps the
nost eventful week yet of the Paris
peace conference opens today with
a plenary session of that body, with
final action on the covenant of the
league of nations in prospect.
Foe Gets Treaty Saturday.
There also is a feeling prevalent
in. Paris that the treaty of peace
will be ready for presentation TO
the German delegates by Saturday
of this week. before which time it
- hoped the Italian situation may
resolves itself.
AS to the peace treaty, the most
important matter still to be set
tied is the problem of composing
the Japanese and Chinese claims TO
kiaO Chau and the Shantung pen
insula. A decision on this subject
has been expected for several days
and it may he announced today.
Matters dealing with the disposi-
tion of the German cables, the re-
patriation of German prisoners of
war and the future status of the
kiel canal and questions relative to
Luxemburg also are pending. but
l. is believed they are in a fair way
toward an adjustment.
League Draft Up.
At the public meeting of the
peace conference to be held today
the revised draft of the covenant OF
the league of nations will be pre-
sented. This draft, made public in
this country Sunday night, differs
in some important respect from that
brought to America by President
Wilson last February. 1t is prob
able that Japan will make an ef-
fort to secure an amendment to the
covenant which will grant the Jap
arese claims for recognition for
race equality.

Saws Bolsheviki Are
Worse Than the Gar

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Russia
is more downtrodden under the Boil
sheviki than she ever was under the
car, the senate propaganda inves-
tiga ting committee was told today
by Herman Bernstein, an American
writer who spent some time in Rus
STA. He said this new slavery actu-
ally was brought about by the Ger
mans.
Truth" the witness went on,
"completely disarms the Bolsheviki.
The exposure of their methods is
sufficient to end it everywhere for
ever. That is why freedom of speech
has been entirely suppressed and
why no news is permitted to be
sent out of Russia"
The witness said he knew certain
men sent to this country from Rus
STA had been in the employ of the
Bolsheviki.
1.-The program of Russia has been
and is today" he said, "to bring
about the overthrow of governments
throughout the world. They also
were trying in every way while the
war was on to bring about victory
for the central powers. ..s

Huge Still Found in
BIRMINGHAM Store

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Feb. ia
huge copper still in full operation
was conisca ed Tuesday afternoon
on the second floor of the Colias Can
dy company, 1927 Second avenue, in
the heart of the downtown section,
and Nicholas Calias, proprietor of the
place, was taken into custody. More

located is also confiscated and the
proceeds from it's sale are divided
among the officers, the county and
