He especially warned against leaving the cen
trail powers out of the league saying the inevita-
bic result would be to drive them more closely
together for mutual protection thus making the
formation of a second league of nations almost
a certainty.
Thus, at no distant date" he continued, eve
should have two great leagues of nations and
two great camps, each preparing for new and
greater life and death struggle

SENATORS OPPOSE INCLUSION OF
LEAGUE COVENANT WITH
PEACE TREATY

The Republican majority of the Senate in the
next Congress have naugurated fight for
prompt conclusion of peace with Germany and
postponenent of the league of nations project
for later consideration
Thirty-nine Republican holdover senators and
senator's elect have signed "round robin
memorial introduced by Senator Lodge, setting
forth to the entire world their views in this re-
spect; only thlrty-three are necessary to prevent
ratification of the league of nations document in
its present form.
The round robin serves warning upon the
president and the peace conference that the Sen
ate will not ratify treaty of peace containing the
league of nations constitution and seeks to induce
the president to segregate the league covenant
from the treaty Of peace. If the president heeds
their warning, they will lose no time in ratifying
the peace treaty, and then go to the people for
verdict on the league of nations plan
1t is said that many of the senators favor the
league of nations in principle they contend that
treaty of peace with Germany should be signed
without delay, but that so momentous a question
as the league covenant should not be forced
through without the most deliberate and careful
consideration
Senator Lodge, in his resolution points out that,
under the constitution it is function of the Sen
ate to advise and consent to or dissent from the
ratification of any treaty of the United States,
and no treaty can become operative without the
consent OF the Senate expressed by the affirmative
vote OF tWo-thlrds of the senators present.
PRESIDENT Wilson, in a speech in New York,
on March 4, declared he was convinced, by TN
m1stakable evidence from all parts of the country
that the nation was in favor of league of ma
tlons He then threw the gauntlet by saying:
his is not party issue and no party, in the
long run, will dare to oppose it."

PASS UP LEGISLATION TO ENFORCE
WARTIME PROHIBITION

A Washington dispatch, of March 8, stated
that agreement had been reached by the Senate
judiciary committee to take no action on legisla-
ton to enforce wartime prohibition which, under
President Wilson's proclamation, would become
effective July and which would remain in force
until rehabilitation of American soldiers was
complete.

perience during the filming of one of
the scenes in this production. In
one of the scenes in this picture a
fire in a grocery store is shown. The
hero rushes in and rescues the star
from the flames. During the filming
of this scene beam dropped acct

sudden dense smoke that Hugh Dill

not at first find her She, however,
finally caught his extended hand and
they escaped together Hearing of this
mishap 10 Miss Keefe, a reporter for
a New York paper sought her at her
home and wrote the following: Her
appearance indicated that she had
passed through a most unpleasant ex-
perience, and she looked anything but
the coincidence that her role calls for
in this picture. Curled up among soft
pillows, she presented the image of
a distressed child, rather than that of
a well-known star Miss Keefe had
received the fright of her young life.
Her hair had been singed, and she
had sustained a cut on the foot. In
answer to question Miss Keefe said:
Mr.. Dillman was to rescue me but the
smoke became so thick he could not,
