and severe suffering from double

Mr.. Magee, brother of our

NEW RULES FOR
EXPRESS PARCELS
ARE FURNISHED


All Shipments Above twenty-five
Pounds Must Be Packed in Wood
en- Containers or Pulp Board
New express packing reqrir mnts
applying to express shipments all
ever the United States will 60 into
effect December 10, and the Ameri-
can Railway Express Company ~,
nishing shippers with copies of the
same with the request that they be
studied in advance Of the date when
they go into effect.
The new regulations are embodied
in what is technically known as Sup
plement No 5, to Express Classified
ton No. &c, and have been approved
by the United States Railroad Ad-
ministration.
Under these regulations all ship
ments weighing over twenty-five
pounds must be packed in wooden
containers or cartons of fiber board,
pulp board or corrugated straw board
material of specified "teststrengths."
According to W. s. Murray, agent
Of the American Express Company
in Cordele, that pack over the TWEEN
ty-five pound limit will not be accept
ed for shipment after December 10,
if wrapped only in paper. Neither
will ordinary paper boxes, wrapped
Or unwrapped, be accepted as suit
tble protection for shipments weigh
ing over twenty pounds.
1t is further stated that regular
shippers will not be mystified by the
new regulations, as they follow the
packing requirements of long time
in vogue in the freight service, al
though they do allow little more
latitude in the size Of the corton used. |
Officials of the express company be-
lieve that the regulations will not
work a hardship on shippers of pack
ages above the 25:pound limit, but on
the contrary will prevent damage and
and thereby result in a very
saving
The new order does not affect the
of food products by cx-
press. which are ordinarily shipped
in crates or barrels.
I'VE believe stated Agent Muir
ray, in explaining the new regulations,
that the shipping PUBLIC will welcome
the new standards when they under
stand them. and the REASONS for put
ting them into effect.
Never before in the history of the
country has the express traffic reached
such proportions as it has assumed
today At the same time. there has
been comparatively little increase in
the amuont of car space available for
this business. We have been asked
70 carry heavier shipments and conf
of every conceivable kind.

Peace ENJOYS Consistently
Have Oppose the
French, Senator Charges
Against World League
Declares Treaty Will Fail in
Congress if Society of
Nations Is Incorporated
Neto York Tribune
Washington Bureau

i
WASHINGTON, March 17.-The
American peace mission has consist
emily opposed the French and tended
to favor the Germans. Senator Miles
Poindexter, of Washington, charged to-
day, after reading cables from Paris
to the effect that Foreign Minister
Pichon had joined Andre Tardieu in de-
claring that the league of nations
should not be incorporated in the peace
treaty, while President Wilson insisted
that it should be.
Mr.. Poindexter was shown cables
telling of the difference between Pin
chon and Tardieu and Wilson.
Inclined to Favor French
That the American delegation
should be piqued at the French is
nothing new" said Senator Poindex-
ter "They have consistently tended
to oppose the French and to favor the
Germans, as to boundaries, as to puni-
tive indemnities, as to internationali-
zation of the Kiel Canal, as to feed
ing the Germans, as to punishment
of the Kaiser, since the very begin
ming of the conference. The American
people, however, are for France.
1.-The President says that France and
Great Britain need the league even
more than America. This is certainly
true. 1t would be tremendous ad
vantage to them for the United States
to share with them tho burJors ~
Europe. That is exactly what our wise
statesmen have always refused to do.
1--WE have no right to commit the
American people to such responsible
ties, burdens and supreme sacrifices
as the President describes the result
of such policy, without submitting it
for their approval in the usual way in
which great issues are always submit
ted to them.
Lays Delay to Wilson
"The dispatch states IAN early peace
is desired by the President That NAV
be so, but the President has been the
chief cause of the long delay in making
peace.
"The greatest progress toward peace
was made during the Presidents brief
visit to America. If he had stayed away
a week longer peace would have been
consummated. Immediately on his re-
