White House has let it be known dur
ing the last week that he was against
any compromise but persistent rumors
that he would agree to a program of
interpretative reservations may make
it eXpedient, il is believed, for him to
put himself fatty on record.
Won't Have Special Train.
Wilson's speeches will be thoroly
framed in the White House, it is said,
and will take the form of statements
of commission, which in the presi-
dents opinnion make Americana ac-
ceptance of the league of nations and
the Peace treaty as it stands, impera-
tive. These speeches will be varied
to meet the verbal attacks of treaty
foes in the capitol and to answer any
new objection to various clauses.
According to present plans Wilson
will not have a special train, but his
car. with those of the secret service
and newspaper men viii be attached
to regular trains, or run as the first or
second section of regular trains. This
will make the trip less expensive.
Most of the speeches will he made on
the eastward journey after the review
of the Pacific fleet at San Francisco
August Is, it is believed. Before re-
turning to washington the president
may stop for few days at some re-
sort for a rest if DIR. Carey T. Grayson
thinks he is overtaxing his strength.
Colombia Treaty Up.
While the senate was TO hear sew
eral league speeches this week, the
first order of business was the treaty
with Colombia with regard to which

TIBET OPEN TO CHRISTIANS
Enter Freely Into the For
hidden Land"

Those disciples of Christ who inter-
est themselves in foreign missions are
aroused over an invitation coming to
American disciples from Tibet, accord
ing to the Boston Evening Transcript.
This land, occupying the roof of the
world" has heretofore been practical
ly closed to all foreigners. That it has
been so was due, so Tibet officials tell
American disciples. to the influence
of China. Now Tibet has thrown off
Chinese control and one Of its first acts
is to appeal for Christian missionaries
The disciples have mission station
at Batang, one of the farthest west cit
les of China, nearly 5000 miles up the
Yangste river.
A venturesome American doctor,
sent out by the disciples. journeyed
Is days farther west. getting into Ii
bet and into city wherein disease in
its worst form. unattended and not i'm.
derstood, ravaged the people. The
doctor set up an impromptu clinic and
dispensary. The relief was so great
that one of the highest civic officials
in all Tibet begged him to stay. or If
he could not do so TO return, build a
hospital and official Tibet would help
him.
Now the disciples argue that here is
a call they are not at liberty to ignore
Their missionary society has acted to
this effect. An appeal has been made
for four families. two OF them ply
stefan families. to go. 1t is said there
are no hospitals. no churches. no
schools. no Christian agencies of any
kind in that country of 100000 peo-
pie. American manufactured goods
are beginning to reach Tibet and
Scotch whisky has been there for
decade or two.
