TREATY FIGHT IN ]. s. CAUSES
 TALK IN PARIS
Most of the Peace Delegates Be lieve Council Can Approve
 Qualifications.
(Bv The Associated Press !


 Paris, July 25-There is much speculation in conference circles as to what the exact status of the Ger man treaty would be, were the United States senate to 1atify it with re- serVations or amendments. This dis cussion has been intensified by the publication in Paris of Mr. Taft's statement indicating that he regards a modification of the treaty as like ly and suggesting changes advisable.
 Most of the delegates take the position that it would be possible for the supreme council to approve the notifications made by the sen ate. Others believe that approval of the changes would be necessary on the part of all the signatory powers.
 President Wilson, before leaving Paris, is known to have believed that any change by the senate would make imperative q renewal of the negotiations with all the signatory powers, and result in great delay American could be admitted to the league of nations. President Will sons view that changes must be pass ed upon by individual countries is apparently not shared by many of the delegates who are of the opinion that senate changes be agreed upon could be acted on speedily by the supreme council, or possibly by a plenary session, thus avoiding the necessity of taking up negotiations through the various capitals.

 The bill is designed to promote and maintain the health of American womanhood and the camps are to be located in the west, in the northern central states, in the south, and in the east and all to be under proper medical and nursing supervision.
 Every American woman and child will be given an opportunity to go to these camps and indulge in regular setting up exercises and semi-mili- tary training with correct posture and deep breathing, so essential in
