Not in Sympathy With
Presidents Policies

Senator Leiby was either caught
mapping last night or he does not
favor the attitude President Wilson
is taking with respect to the claims
Of Italy at the peace table.
Senator Ware, of Philadelphia, in
troduced long series of resolutions
highly recommending the claims OF
the Italians to the territory which
they are seeking under the secret
treaty of London along the Adriatic.
He asked immediate consideration
Of the resolutions. This required
unanimous consent and as Lieuten-
ant Governor Beidleman. presiding
asked the Senate if this would be
granted, he naturally looked toward
Senator Leiby, expecting the Perry
county Democrat to come to the res
cue of the President by at least hold
ing up the arti-Wilson resolutions
But none was forthcoming and the
Senate Immediately gave its approx
al with a unanimous vote and they
went to the House.
Senator Leslie last evening intro
duced bill changing the fall pri-
mary back to the third Tuesday in
stead of the third Wednesday, as
amended last session.
