Americans in France X pected Compromise WoI Be Effected - COun Withholds Comment.

Washington, Nov. 20.--The fat, the treaty of peace with Germany the league of nations. SO far as United States is concerned, ts again is in the hands of President son. Failure yesterday and last n of all efforts to have the treaty fled in some form by the se brought the situation just whol was six months ago when the pact submitted to the upper house of gress and technically peace is no n CT than it was on Armistice day, n than a year ago.
 Action Eagerly Awaited.
 With the much debated and nj contested document thrust back Il him the next move is up to the pl dent and today there was no inti ton what course he would pursud any event it was not believed tI would be any developments until gress reconvenes on December regular session. Opinion as to VI may be expected then is divided. ator Lodge, majority leader. whol the forces opposed to adoption of treaty as presented, declared the ure of ratification last night killed pact unless President Wilson "circ| vented the senate rules" by withdd ing it and then submitting it at| new session next month.
 May Get Foreign Views.
 sn T a the president during the recess m see fit to feel out the other poMaa to their attitude on reservations a view of bringing the treaty ta x sort of ratification at the Decer1 session. If re-submitted the trI would come before the senate r] tically as new business and dehat| it would not be governed by the ture rule invoked in the closing of the session just adjourned.
 May Declare War Ended.
 Should the president fail to rel init the pact promptly when cond reassemhles it was believed the| publican leaders would without q take up Senator Lodges resolution troduced last night after the trI had failed of ratification propd that congress declare the war Germany at an end. The resoIlI would require concurrence by house. On this question there alk a division of opinion, democratic lI CTS holding that such resolsI would have to be approved by president to become effective and publicans holding that presidential proval would not be necessary.
 Two Attempts Fail.
 Decision of the senate last nfg} lay aside the treaty came after twI tempts to ratify it with the fo& relations committee's reservation tached and one attempt to ado without reservations of any sort, all failed. The first vote on the tr with reservations attached showe for and 55 against. The second, w came several hours later, showe for and 51 against.

COAL STRIKE IS NO

As Yet, However, Garfield Has Taken No Action Toward Nationwide
 Restrictions of Fuel.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Fuei Admin istrator Garfield still withheld today any action toward q nation-wi re- striction of coal consumption while sub-committeeS of miners and oper- ators continued negotiations for q wage scale in the central competitive field. and a basis of settlement for the miners strike. Steps taken in To- Calities where the pinch of coal fam inc has been felt have been the action of regional coal committees of the railroad administration.
 The joint committees were reported today to be making progress towards a settlement. For the first time. 1t was said, they were onsidering details of a wage and condition agreement.
 The miners were reported to have receded from their proposal for local adjudication of disputes rising out of the general agreement. This it was said would prevent sporadic labor difficult ties in localities after an agreement had been negotiated.
 Operators, however, still were with holding a definite counter proposal to the miners demands for the 30 hour week and so per cent. increase in wages, but it was understood they were prepared to offer some wage in4 creases.

Boosters and BOOSTERS,

The difference between the effective
booster and the rooster is that the lat

time when the boosters from town
would go on a visit asserting that they
lived in the biggest city, had the tall
est buildings, the largest stores. the
wealthiest people, and so on, using
words without stint simply because
they wished to say something favor
able about home. They would be
placed in the rooster class now unless
they could show by facts and figures
that their assertions were true.

PAYS TO MAKE USE OF PAINT
Apart From Adding to Appearance Of
Structure It Also Tends to Re-
tard Deterioration.

The foundation reason for painting
is protection Of the thing painted.
The owner of property should never
forget that. No one can look upon
painting as an expense if he Is con-
WINGED that it prevents greater e1-
pense.
There is, however, another great rea-
son for painting and that is the appeal
Of pride in appearance. This is quite
human. 1t is seen in the matter of
clothes. Primarily clothes are to keep
us, warm, but suit Isl discarded while
it is still warm because 1t Is shiny, out
of shape, or slightly faded. In other
promise their standing were they to
wear it.
So it is With the painting Of houses,
both without and within. =
In progressive, proud communities,
houses are painted every three or four
years through pride in appearance.
Progressive citizens are not satisfied
with the looks of their houses after
three or four years exposure to
weather.
As good citizens we should not only
see that every person knows. that
structures will deteriorate If unpaint-
ed, but we should also try to make
people as proud Of the appearance Of
their homes as their more progressive
neighbors. We should deliberately
set out to make them ashamed of their
dingy homes which are reflection up
on the whole community.
This work Is peculiarly one for local
example and community co-operetisn::
Everyone knows that a ne,yfyspnfnted
house Is likely to start the whole neigh
borhood to Sticking up. It becomes
contagious.
Every person who wants to see his
community prosper will join in such
q movement.
