VIscountess GulnsIow.

PARIS, March 2S.-Hopes are ex-
pressed in peace conference circles that
the preliminary peace treaty might be
signed by April 20.
A rumor was current last night that
the United States had received a note
from Premier Lenine and Wal Minister
Trot2ky, Of the Russian soviet govern
ment, asking recognition for the gov
eminent, says Marcel Hutin in the
Echo de Paris today. M. Hutin adds
that he "can not say that President
Wilson is disinclined to give the re-
quest favorable consideration"
1t was reported last night that the
amendment to the league Of nations
covenant urged by Leon Bourgeois, pro-
viding for a permanent military and
naval staff for the league, has been
rejected by the league OF nations COM
mission.

around which has conferred the great
est interest n much divergence Of
opinion, however, may be offered either
In the council of 10 or to the plenary
peace conference, to which the cove
nan must go for final action.
1t developed last night that unex-
pected obstacles had arisen concerning
the Monroe doctrine amendment to the
covenant, making It doubtful whether
the amendment can be Incorporated in
the revised document.
Among other amendments adopted
Wednesday night was one directly rec
ognizing the principle Of women's suf-
frage IN that 1t provides that offices
of the league are open to women as
we'll as men, The much discussed
question as to the policy of the with
drawal from membership in the league
Of a nation was settled by an amend
ment permitting withdrawal on two
years notice, but not until such ma
ton has filled its international obliga-
tons.
Article 10 Of the covenant, to which
the Monroe doctrine amendment would
apply stands in its original form, Presi-
dent Wilson having reserved for the
present the amendment which had been
prepared as expressing the views Of
the American delegation, 1t is now
explained that It was not the exact
text, but only the general form OF the
text, which was given to the press,
and that hence criticism must be with
held.
Careful ~soundings are being taken to
ascertain the reception that Is likely
to be given this amendment by other
delegations. II unfriendly sentiment
develops or the pressing of other and
obnoxious appointments Is threatened as
a consequence of insistence upon the
Monroe doctrine, 1t is said the amend

Cocoanut Oil Fine
for Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition. be careful what you wash It
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, make the hair brittle, and is very
harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
less), is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for s~hampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten YOU hair with water
and rub 1t In. One or two teaspoonfuls
Will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, and ~cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily
and removes every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
1t fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. 1t is very cheap.
and a few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.

One of the Mormons, who was held
as a prisoner of Lopez preceding the

he saw Lopez go into the battle. He
later saw the body declared by the
federals to be hat Of Lopez, and stated
here positively that it was not the body
Of the Villa general.

mitted that 1t was possible that Gen.

President Wilson has issued a denial
that there have been delays in the
