UNDERwoOD's AMENDMENT

senator Underwood offered amend ments to the resolution providing that no man be permitted to participate in the proposed investiga ton who had had connection with any business proceeded against by the custodian, and that no money be expended in the proposed in- vestigation for duplication of work al- ready completed. The amendnents were adopted
 In the general debate that followed, senator Calder insisted that his reso- lution be enacted on account of many suggestions, reports and insinuations that had reached him concerning the alleged misconduct of the custodian. Senator Underwood made the point that all such charges had been investigated by. the judiciary committee, and that auditors at that very time were com pleting their report on the business of MT. Palmer when he was custodian. So unnecessary did the proposed investi- gation appear to the Senate that Ma pority Leader Lodge checked the dis cussion by insisting on regular busi- ness," which was the consideration of the treaty of peace with Germany.
 During the debate, Senator Under wood read from the press of Germany the bitter denunciation of Palmer when he made his report as alien property custodian, to the President The fol- lowing paragraph, in particular, Sena- tor Underwood said, indicates the hatred of Germany and the hope of Germany that in the long run it will come again into possession of the $780, O0O O00.

DENOUNCES PRESIDENT
 IN BITTER TERMS

Washington, September r.22.-(SpeciaL) Those engaged in the pastime of "break- ing the heart of the world" selected Senator Reed of Missouri, bitter and belligerent opponent of the league of nations, to fire the first gun in the floor battle for the Johnson amendment.
 This amendment would give the Unit ed States in all executive branches of the proposed league an equal voting trength with that of the British empire. Senatof Reed did not confine his re- marks to discussion of the proposed amendment. He first proceeded with de- nunciation, never before approached in bitterness by this masterNof invective, orally to cruelty the President. He re- peated what the President is alleged to have said regarding the senatorial oppo- nents of the league, and then called the President another" AS false as it is infamous" was the way he character ized the alleged contention of the Presi- dent that the senators opposing the

When Will Japan Go Dry?

Etsu Inagaki Sugimoto, in the World
 Outlook.
 Japanese sake is plentiful. It is said that there is per capita consumption of 15 quarts a year. It can be found wherever bottled waters eare sold, and even children may buy it, although il has never been considered good form for women and minors to drink.
 Each year 100000 bushels of rice are consumed in the manufacture of sake and with the population of Japan stead fly increasing, and the rice crop failing on account of the decrease of farm lands through industrial expansion, people arc beginning to doubt the wisdom of sake manufacture The recent rice riots gave an opening to the temperance societies.
 Another problem facing the temperance workers is the increasing popularity oi imported liquors. Beer is widely adver- tised as the fashionable drink of civ

ilized people," and is promising to win greater number of followers even than sake Would-be fashionable ladies drink it in European style restaurants; it is served in homes to honored guests, and even schoOlboys take it with meals at restaurants. Beer was introduced in Japan in 1876 Today there are $50 brew cries with yearly output of about IT, 0OO,OOO gallons.
 The outlook of temperance seems -dis- couraging, but to those who understand the Japanese people the problem is far from hopeless. The Japanese, generally speaking, are a "self-lofty" race. In other words, they are conceited. But they are keen observers, are generally open to intelligent argument and, once convinced, generally live up to their con- vctions.

By HIGH ". ROBERTS

Washington. September 22-(Spe- cial)-Germany is making a persistent effort to recover possession of the $750,000,o00 which Attorney General Palmer, as alien property custodian, se- cured from confiscated German prop into Liberty Bonds with which to fight Germany.
 The sum is held as Nlarantee that American claims resulting from Ger many's method of illegal warfare will be paid. In the peace treaty, which Germany has signed but which the Sem ate of the United States has not rati- fled, Germany makes admission that the proceedings of the alien property

covenant are playing the game of Ger many.
 Senator Reed proceeded from his de- nunciation to assail the league on the theory that it establishes a super-gov- ernment with national emblem. He then ran the entire gamut of criticism and abuse.
 The galleries, in advance aware of the fire of the man, his scathing ridi- cule, his picturesque invective, sat crowded for the hours of the tirade. At the conclusion, there was applause.

GERMANY IS HOPEFUL

That the administration of alien property is onsidered not without sus- picion in the United States herself is evident in the action taken by the Sem ate because of the resolution presented last February by Senators Frelinghuy- sen and Calder demanding an investi- gation of the alien property custodian because of misappropriation and favor itism. So far as is here known, the Senate has also refused to appoint MT. Palmer Attorney General It re-

 Nevertheless, Germany is offering an abiding hope that something will happen which will result in it's recovery or the money. And senators who de- lay the ratification of the. treaty. or who continually move against the At torney General or who are perpetually seeking an investigation of the affairs or the alien property custodian, are un- willingly playing Germany's game.
 Senator Frelinghuysen, as is remem- bered, was very bitter in his assaults against MT. Palmer in an effort to pre- vent his confirmation as Attorney Gen eral When the Judiciary committee heard all the charges preferred against the Attorney General, attorneys in the employ of German business men who formerly owned property in the United States, strove nightly to convict him. But the Judiciary committed by unan- imous vote, found him guiltless and rec commended his confirmation. He was confirme ed
 But the battle was not over. There bends in the Senate at the present time a resolution introduced by Senator Cal der of New York, providing for an in vestigation of the alien property cus- todian's activity during the war The consideration of that resolution was postponed after a sharp debate some days ago, in which Senators Jones of Washing ton, Nelson of Minnesota; Un- derwood of Alabama, Calder of New York, Frelinghuysen of New Jersey.
