 DISAPPROVE

Washington, Aug. 15-President Wilson today vetoed the bill repeal ing the daylight saving law
 Declaring the pressing need of the try, the President said he had been obliged to balance one set of disa d. VantaSeS against another and decide which was the most serious for the country.
 The President said he returned the bill without his approval with "the utmost reluctance' because he real ized the very considerable and in some respects very serious incon- veniences to which the daylight saw ing law subjects the farmers of the country"
 The Presidents message was sent to Speaker Gillett, but when an effort was made to present it to the House, Representative Blanton, Democrat, Texas, made a point of no quorum and the House adjourned wit.lout the m essage being read.
 This was the second time the Pres ident had vetoed repeal of the law by which the clocks are set forwal d an hour on the last Sunday in March and turned back an hour the last Sunday in October. The first veto was several weeks ago, the repeal be- ing attached as rider to the annual agricultural appropriation bill.

Washington, Aug. 15-More than twenty Republican Senators are ready to stand for quick ratification of the peace treaty with reservations. Democratic leaders in the Senate were informed today by leaders of the Re publican group of reservation advo- cates.
 Republicans favoring reservations said that upwards of thirty Senators of their party would support reserva- tions along the general lines laid down by the seven Republicans if the treaty could be brought promptly out of committee and ratified on that ba- sis.
 Although Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the administration leader, still disclaimed any part in the nego- tiations for a settlement 1t was ap- parent that the move had reached proportions which might threaten the plans of the committee for calling additional witnesses 5And prolonging consideration ot the treaty.

RICH, SHE WANTS KIN TO LOSE
 THEIR MONEY

Chicago, Aug. IS. An unusual letter from a woman who possesses great wealth to q union organizer was made public today. She is a Mrs. Frances R. LilIie of Woods Hole, Macs. The union organizer is John J. ISilneslsi. Mrs. Lille is Q sister of Charles R. and Richard T. Crane, the latter President of Crane & Co.,. in whose various plants $500 men have been on strike for month. She writes to the organizer:
 "I feel sure that my brother be- iieves. and is encouraged to believe, that he ia a good and generous em- ployer. but that cannot hide the fact that the Crane family is getting enor- nous sums of money from the labors of others without anything like com mensurate returns to society for it.
 That is n sufficient evil in itself but besides that. we have through cur organization a power over the lives of the employees that Is intol- erabie in modern society.
 ''For that reason I believe that the strike for the unionization of the Crane Company Is wise and right and the gradual assumption of the control of their lives by workers in the company Is and must be only q question of time.
 "As for those of the family who have done little but injure them selves and others by the use of this unearned money. the sooner, for the good of society. their money is taken away from them the better"
 Mrs Lillie is a large stockholder in the company. However, accord ing to !. E. Berryman. Vice Presi- dent of the company. her stand does not represent that of the directorate.
