Glenn E. Plumb originator Of the

railroad labor shall have voice in the
control of the railroads, heartily well
comes President Wilson's plan for a
conference between capital and labor.
"If permitted" he says the men sup
porting labor's plan for democratic
control of the railroad industry, will
gladly join with, the president in seek
ing the solution of the tremendous
problems we face. "The railroad eX-
perience of the last eight years." says
Mr.. Plumb, shows that no road ever
paid off an Indebtedness except b.
creating a new Indebtedness of the
same or greater par value. To-day
we are still paying for the use OF
locomotives long since sent to the
scrap heap. We are paying returns on
the shades. OF ties that have been ashes
for generations. Rails that have been
replaced half dozen times still de-
mand from us the earnings paid for by
our ancestors. The. property invest.

Washington, Sept. 4.-The Senate
foreign relations committee lat, TO-DAY
finished its work on the peace treaty
with Germany and, after adopting four
reservations to the league of nations
covenant, ordered the treaty reported
to the senate with about two score
amendments previously Incorporated.
The treaty, signed at Versailles June
IS and submitted by President Wilson
to the senate and referred to the COM
mittee July TO-, now passes so far as
fthe United States Is concerned, into
its final sta ge-that of open considera-
tion by the senate for ratification or
rejection. Committee action was defer
red on the special treaty to protect
France and on the other treaties SUBJ
mitted e
Will Report Next Week.
Chairman Lodge will return the
treaty to the senate with formal ma
jority report late next week. A minor
ity report by the Democrats opposing
both amendments and reservations is
to be filed within three days thereafter
and it is expected that actual consider
alton of the treaty will begin about
September Is. Weeks Of debate, be-
fore the final vote are expected. The
first contest will be over the reserva-
tions, which the reservations provides
might be specifically accepted by the
four great powers-France, Japan,
italy and Great Britain.
Conclusion of the committees WORK
which has taken nearly two months
came somewhat Unexpectedly today at
a special executive session of three
hours stormy debate which divided
both the Republican and Democrat
membership. rs
The four reservations to the league
Of nations covenent, which were spon-
sored by Chairman Lodge and written
into a resolution providing for cona,-
tional ratification of the treaty, pro-
vide: s

any. foreign territorial guarantees un-
der article 10 of the league covenant
or mandates without action by con-
gress.
"3. Exclusive action by the United
States on domestic or political affairs,
and
"a. Interpretation of the Monroe
Doctrine solely by this nation.
On all four reservations the party
lineup of the committee was shat
tered. Senator McCumber, Republican
of North Dakota, voted with the DEM
ocrats in opposition to those dealing
with article 10 and the withdrawal
provision. but joined his colleagues in
supporting those provisions affecting
the Monroe Doctrine and domestic af-
fairs. Senator Shields, Democrat, of
Tennessee. joined the Republicans in
supporting all of the reservations eS.
cept that concerning territorial guar
antees. on which he withheld his vote
The other six Democrats of the com.
mittee voted solidly against all reser-
vations.
After the vote on the resolution OF
ratification and the reservations. tho
treaty as amended was ordered re-
ported without record vote.

Marriage as an institution, is en-
dangered in America today through
the divorce evil, and the only way to
save it is by the establishment of
family courts in which social evi-
dence, as distinguished from legal,
will be considered" Judge Hoffman
said.
There will be more than 100000
divorce cases filed before the courts
of the land this year, and something
must be done to save our family life,
the greatest civilizing force we
have" he continued. "The family
court should be an extension of the
principle upon which Juvenile courts
are founded.
at will be possible under this sys-
tenn to correlate the work of the
juvenile and divorce divisions Of the
court and obtain reliable scientific
data. This Is the final purpose OF
the family court and it will be through
the facts developed that requisite
knowledge and information necessary
for the regulation for marriage and
divorce will be acquired. No scien-

subject of divorce. Divorces are
