]. 5. MAY Be At WAR
TECHNICALLY AFTER
TREATY IS SIGNED

Paris, March i4.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press).-An interesting ques-
tion of Importance to the U. S. has
arisen and upon Its answer depends
the operation of much war legisla-
tion. such as control of railroads, the
prohibition of the manufacture and
sale of liquors and similar enact
ments, with reference to the date on
which the war and activities will
cease.
Assuming that Secretary of State
Lansing will sign the peace treaty
for the United States along with the
powers associated with the United
States In the war when II is signed
by the Germans, II Is pointed out
this will not become effective, as far
as the United States is concerned,
until It is ratified by tho United
States senate.
It Is possible the United States
might be placed In the peculiar POSI-.
tion Of technically being alone At war
with Germany long after her asso.
ciates had formally concluded peace.

The mobilization plans. so far as they
have been determined. make it plain
the different organizations would be
needed for long time. and. owing to
conditions which necessarily characterize
the period of rehabilitation. this prac-

Judge Wants to Consider
Alleged Flaws in the
Prosecution.

Wichita. kas., March 14.-The trial
Of 81 members of the Industrial Work
ers of the World, charged with violation
Of the espionage act. came to an abrupt
conclusion today when Federal Judge
John c. Pollock continued the case to
the September term of court.
Judge Pollock, in ordering the continu-
ance, announced he desired time to con-
slider motions filed by the defense to
quash the Indictment upon which the
men were brought to trial.
The defense contends the indictment
is faulty and also that the government
agents unlawfuly seized certain docu-
ments belonging to the defendants, which
were to be used against them.
The trial Lad been set for Wednesday
and a jury was selected that day. Thurs
day was given over to arguments by
both sides on the defense's motion to
Iuash the indictment.
The men were arrested in November,
1917, and have been in Jail ever since.
An attempt several months ago to bring
them to trial failed. because of technical
defects in the indictment.

Washington, March 14.-An emergency
committee on employment for soldiers
and sailors was organized. today, by the
council of national defense. with the ap-
proval of the war and labor departments.
The purpose is to meet the situation
created by the radical curtailment of the
machinery of the federal employment
service, made necessary by the failure
of congress to provide funds for the re-
mainder of this fiscal year.
Support will be furnished by the COM
mittee to 1000 branch bureaus for re-
turning soldiers and sailors, now main
tanned by the war welfare organizations
and local communities and. in addition.
efforts will be made to establish such
bureaus in additional cities and towns
thru local financial aid. Cooperation of
local interests also is expected to in

New York, March IA challenge to
VIII II. Hays, chairman of the republi-

Cummings. chairman of the democratic
national committee in an address at Il
dinner at the national democratic club.
The speakers included Josephus DAN
iels, secretary of the navy; and
Governor Alfred E. Smith. of New York.
Il had hoped, and I still hope said
Mr.. Cummings, that this great league
of nations project will not become Il
partisan question. Is there any reason
why Mr.. Hays should not put his party
upon record in this matter. SO the
league of nations may have the support
of both political parties and of all for
ward looking citizens generally? He
would be in good company, for he will
find himself supported by Mr.. Taft. Mr..
Wickersham. Senator Burton and Pres

not least, by Mr.. Hughes-with Mr.. Root

Mr.. Cummings launched a vigorous at
tack upon the republican leaders for
what he termed their unusual efforts
IN the last Two or three years TO regain
mastery of the machinery of govern

ITO this purpose" he asserted, .'they

JOINT MANAGEMENT IN
INDUSTRY FAVORED BY
FORMER HARVARD HEAD

Boston, March IA program for
cooperation between capital and labor,
designed to bring about "a just settle
ment of industrial strife" was outlined,
today, by Charles w. Eliot, President
Emeritus of Harvard university. at a
legislative hearing on a bill for the ap-
pointmert of special commission to
study the hours of labor in Massachu-
setts industries.
He favored the bill chiefly, he said,
because he believed it ito be inexpedient
not to say absurd, to attempt to fix
by law the same number of hours for
all industries, without regard to their
infinite diversities, or for all establish
ments in the same industry.
As final basis for his program, DR..
Eliot proposed:
General adoption of a genuine part
nership system between the capital and
the labor engaged in any given works

T. an open filibuster against pending
legislations was still in progress. The
senate ignoring its functions. declined
to consider the most pressing of national
needs, and wasted precious moments in
violent partisan abuse and opposition to
the league of nations. So intent have
the republican leaders been upon their
purpose that they have been BETRAYED
into all sorts of indiscretions. Their
moderate triumph of November, 1918,
has gone to their heads. The mere
prospect of control has already thrown
them into confusion.
Ever since the war began in Europe
