w. o. w. RATE INCREASE
NOT AT ALL NECESSARY
J. Mack TOwne, Just Returned from
st. Louis Convention, Says Rates
Will be Changed
(Tampa Tribune)

J. Mack Towne, who has been at
tending a convention of Woodmen of
the World at st. Louis, returned home
Friday night feeling well satisfied
with what was accomplished at the
meeting, with regard to the adjust
ment of rates.
Delegates were present from sew
enteen states, the convention being
called to order in the auditorium of
the Statler hotel by Mr.. Towne, who
acted as temporary chairman. and
who was afterward elected a member
of the executive committee of ten.
More than a score of able attorneys
were among the delegates present and
efforts were made to have the new
rates, which are very high, particu-
larly on the older members of the
order, either referred to the camps
for their individual action or held up
altogether until the courts can pass
upon the necessity for the increase,
which the majority of the delegates
believe is unnecessary, considering
that the order is solvent and in good
financial condition.
"My advice to the members in Flor
ida," said Mr.. Towne last night, els
to hold their certificates and to pay
what they are paying at this time, and
the so-called insurgent crowd will see
that the rates are changed in a man.
ner which will be satisfactory to the
United States insurance commission
er. We firmly believe that after the
auditing of the w. o. w. books, we
will find there is no necessity of any
increase in the rates, and that a ma
terial cut can be made in the running
expenses of the order"
1t is declared that the committee
appointed in connection with the mat
ter has employed attorneys to prose
cute the case in the courts.

THE DIXIE DUO

1t is only occasionally a combina-
ton of fortunate circumstances pro-
duce such a unique affiliation as is
found in the Dixie Girls, appearing
at the Woman's Club tonight. Miss
Fanny May Baldridge of Kentucky
and Miss Evelynne Murphey of Lou
isiana, thru their lifelong association
with the stories and folk songs of the
South, bring the best of these to the
lyceum and offer q program of great
originality and charm.
Miss Baldridge is a soprano whose
voice is equally pleasing in Operatic
and the more sympathetic home
songs. Her stories of negro life are
original and she tells them in a de-
Ilightfully wholesome manner.
Miss Evelynne Murphey sings
!charmingly, her voice being of clear
fiute-like quality, and she, with Miss
Baldridge, offers delightful duets. In
addition, Miss Murphey plays violin
and specializes in child stories and
tpianologues.
The Dixie Girls wear the costumes
of the "Belles of co." Their program
consists of operatic arias of that ro-
mantle period, negro stories and
songs and folk songs of the noun
taineers, which are new to the plat
form.
This past winter the girls have
spent much of their time entertaining
at the Great Lakes and different
army camps, where they were received
with Uroat enthusiasm

WILSON SENDS WORD
President Issues Proclamation on
Peace Treaty.
Declares Document Is Charter for New
Order of Things All Over
World.

Washington, June 30.-Word of the
signing of the peace treaty was fol.
lowed by a proclamation from Presi-
dent Wilson, issued at the White
House: 1t follows:
My Fellow Countrymen:
The treaty of peace has been signed.
II it is ratified and acted upon in full
and sincere execution of it's terms, it
will furnish the charter for a new
order Of affairs in the world.
1t Is a severe treaty in the duties
and penalties it imposes upon Ger.
many, but it is severe only because
the great wrongs done by Germany
are to be righted and repaired; it i'm
poses nothing that Germany cannot
do; and she a regain her rightful
standing in the world by the prompt
and honorable fulf1llment of it's terms.
And it is much more than a treaty of
peace with Germany. 1t liberates
great peoples who have never before
been able to find the way to liberty.
It ends, ace for all, an old and intol-
cradle order under which small groups
of selfish men could use the people of
great empires to serve their own am
billions for power and dominion.
1t associates the free governments
of the world in a permanent league
in which they are pledged to use their
united power to maintain peace by
maintaining right and justice. It
makes international law a reality, sup
ported by imperative sanctions. 1t
does away with the right of conquest
and rejects the policy of annexation
and substitutes a new order, under
which backward neutrality-suspicious.
which have not yet come to political
consciousness and peoples who are
ready for independence but not yet
quite prepared to dispense with pro-
lection and guidance-shall no more
be subjected to the domination and
exploitation Of a stronger nation, but
shall be put under the friendly direc-
ton and afforded the helpful assist
ance of governments which undertake
to be responsible to the opinion of
mankind in the execution of their task
by accepting the direction of the
League of Nations.
1t recognizes the ~inalienable rights
of nationalities; the rights. of minor
tiles and the sanctity of religious be-
liefs and practices. 1t lays the basis
for conventions which shall free the
commercial intercourse of the world
from unjust and vexatious restrictions
and for every sort of international co.
operation that will serve to cleanse
the life of the world and facilitate it's
common action with beneficent serv-
ice of every kind.
1t furnishes guarantees such az
were never given or even contemplat-
ed before for the fair treatment of all
who labor at the daily tasks of the
world. 1t is for this reason that /
have spoken of it as a great charter
for a new order Of affairs. There is
ground for deep satisfaction, universal
reinsurance and confident hope.

MINORITY HOPES
TO amend BILL
Question of Prohibition Enforce
ment Transferred From
Committee to House.
CLAIM ENOUGH VOTES
Supporters Of Dry Legislation Claim
They Have Enough Followers to
Assure Passage of Measure
Without Material Change.

Chicago, June 3o.-Many liquor
dealers openly assert that If Ger
many signs the peace treaty be-
fore July I they will continue to
sell liquor. Ernest kunds, presi-
dent Of the Liquor Dealers Pro-
tective association Of Illinois, said
the sentiment was general.
Washington, June 80. - Without
promise or assurance of speedy con.
%sideration, the whole question of pro-
hibition enforcement has been trans
ferred from the judiciary committee
to the house.
A general enforcement measure, en-
braclng both wartime and constitu-
tional prohibition, put together in such
q way as to let n stand independent
ly of the other, was reported out by
a vote of II to 2 after the commit
tee had refused to split it into two
parts. But this vote did not accur-
ately represent the sentiment of the
committee, some members of which
will send in a minority report and in
sist upon elimination of some of the
drastic provisions.
Backed by representatives from dis
tricts outwardly hostile to wartime
prohibition, the minority will attempt
a flying wedge fight in the hope of
so amending the wartime enforce
ment bill as to permit the manufac-
ture and sale of 2.75 per cen beer.
Confer on Plan of Action.
While the prohibition leaders claim
to have sufficient votes to put the bill
through without substantial change,
they conferred informally to decide up
On a plan of action, believing that
there was no indication that the Presi-
dent, before July 1, would issue a
proclamation declaring decentralization
and wartime prohibition ended.
Anti-prohibition forces in the house
have counted heads and agreed to put
up a desperate battle for wholesale
notifications of severe sections. There
was wide difference of opinion among
members as to how soon the fight
might begin. After the bill was form
ally reported out, Chairman Volstead
announced he would ask for a rule CIV
ing it the right of way, but strong OBJ
lection developed. The general view
was that the bill would not be called
up in the house until July Z, at the
earliest, and how long the fight would
last no one would predict. There was
little disagreement, however, on the
bills ultimate passage, for the house
is counted dry by a big margin.
