proposins that the senate formally ex-
press unwillingness to accept the
league covenant as it now is inter-
woven with the terms of peace.
The debate is expected to last for
many days and to develop some of the
bitterest passages yet produced by the
treaty fight. League supporters are
ready to fight the resolution at every
step. tho they disclaim any intention
to filibuster. Before the debate began
they claimed they had enough votes to
defeat the measure.
Those favoring the resolution de-
clared If it should command the sup
port of more than one-third of the
senate, the result would be to serve
notice that the treaty could receive in
its present form the two-thirds neces-
sary to ratification. This. however,

Attitude Toward Working Man

INDUSTRIAL COUNCIL TO MEET
c. o. Tresner, President, Wants
To Appoint Probe Committee.
Wants WaShburn and Union To
Understand Each Other.

Organized labor will investigate
charges that Prof. ]. E. Kirkpatrick,
instructor in political economy at
Washburn, was discharged by Presi-
dent P. P. Womer because of Kirk
patrick''s views. Such was a statement
today by Clyde Tresner. president of
the Topeka Industrial Council.
I'VE want to ascertain If it is true
the president of a college discharged a
man on account of his interest in the
! welfare and education of the laboring
man." said Tresner. 'I intend to call
a meeting of the executive committee
at an early date and, it is probable a
committee will be named to call on
the president of the college and ask
for an explanation"
Booster for Labor College.
kirkpatrick since his arrival in To-
peka has taken an active interest in
labor affairs and endeavored, SO Tres
ner claims, to lessen the breach be-
i tween the laboring man and the COL
| lege bred man. Kirkpatrick's most re-
cent act in behalf of labor was the es-
tablishment of a labor union college
| in which he hoped, thru cooperation
! of other college heads. to teach cul-
ture studies to. the laboring man free
of charge.
| 1t was just shortly after kirkpatrick
appeared before the Topeka Industrial
council and obtained that body's
hearty approval of the proposition
that it was announced he had been
discharged Tresner today expressed
| ignorance of President Womer's atti-
| tude toward labor.
| However" said Tresner. cit ap-
pears at present that Professor Kirk
| patrick feels his attitude on the labor
situation is partly to blame for his
discharge. We don't wish to cause
any trouble but we want to meet with
/ President Womer and the board of
trustees and learn their feelings to-
ward labor.
Have Understanding.
Then, If possible, we wish to come
to a satisfactory agreement so labor
will know just what to expect from
| Topeka's higher educational institu-
ton and the institution will know just
what to expect from labor. There is
no reason why we should hate each
other"
| President Womer's refusal to fix a
date to discuss his reasons for dis
charging the political economy in
structor has tended to cast a mystery
| and suspicion over the whole affair,
labor men say. This has caused Tres
ner's action in calling a meeting of the
executive committee of the Topeka In
dustrial Council in an effort to ascer-
tain factors concerning Kirkpatrick S
