forts to negotiate the peace treaty
despite President Will
sons opposition to compromise,
they declared. In doing this they
are not revolving against the presi-
dents leadership, they said.
The senators say a careful analy-

president Sunday shows that Wilson
did not say he would refuse to ac-
cept compromise, nor did he for
bid the senators to accept one, but
merely declared he would not offer
any.
Article 10 is the big stumbling
block in the way of the negotiators,
Senator Hitchcock said. Senator
Underwood, who took the lead in
advocating thc compromise plan,

after Lepara had shot three bullets
into his victims body he ran into
a park, where he was captured while
trying to stuff the remaining bullets
in his gun into his hat.
The Lepara case attracted inter
national attention from the fact that
much publicity had been given to the
announced intention of the San Quen-
tin prison doctors to transplant Le-
para's interstitial glands into the
body of an aged prisoner for the pur-
pose of rejuvenating the latter. AL
though she had been offered $40.

eral prominent Californians, Mrs. Le-
para refused the offers after her
attorney had advised her to accept
one of them. She stated that she
would rather continue working at
small wages in a cannery to support
herself and her children rather than
accept money for those organs from
