Blacksburgers got a lead of twelve
points, the holt ending with a 10 to 5
score. -
So accurate were the long lads
from the Virginia.: mountains that
Catholic University players let them
take long shots which proved &C
curate enough to get a substantial
lead. In the second half Cathode
University players hurried the Poly
men along and with Wharton gone
climbed up almost on even terms. The
battle terminated with a score Of Is
to 16. and came near resulting in a
tie as Jack Glasscott Gagged the ball
a second after the whistle blew.
The Polys displayed teamwork far
above the usual high S. A standard.
Their passing was exceptionally good

alone as convincing proof that Senat-
ors Lodge of Massachusetts and La
tollstte Of Wisconsin, were the chief
assassins of this document of humani-
~.
When 1t appeared to all that efforts
10 bring about compromise had fail
ed, Senator Pomerene, of Ohio, made
final attempt to save the instrumen;
that promised much to the future
Tranquility of the world His propo-
sal was simple and reasonable. He
said:
81 move that the treaty, the resolu.
ton Of ratification and the reserva.
tons heretofore presented to the
Senate be referred to a COMMITTEE
Of CANCELLATION composed of sis
senators TO be appointed by the ,presi-
dent of the senate, among them shall
be the leader of the majority, the SEN
ator from Massachusetts (Mr. Lodge, }
who shall be chairman of the commit
tee, and the leader of the minority
the senator from Nebraska, (Mr.
Hitchcock), and that said committee
be instructed to prepare and report
to the senate such a resolution or rati-
fications and reservations as in their
judgment will meet the approval of
not less than two-thirds of the SEN
ate"
Hardy had the senator, whose
earnestness left no doubt as to the
sincerity of his suggestion, finished
reading his motion, when Senator
Lodge jumped to his feet and raised
point of order. Consulting his book
of Senate rules, Vice President Marsh
all decided that the Pomerene motion
was in order. A wave of expectancy
swept over the senate. For a moment
it looked as il an eleventh-hour settle
ment might be reached but the hope
was short lived.
Senator LaFollette, the same La
Follettee who voted against the war
resolution, and who during the war,
made . speech in st. Paul that for a
time threatened his impeachment,
shouted: II move to lay the motion on
the table"
THAT is in order. The question is
on laying the motion Of the senator
from Ohio (Mr. Pomerene) on the
table," ruled the vice-president.
LaFollette, with q smirky smile on
his face as he looked at Senator
Lodge, demanded the yeas and nays.
The LaFollettee motion carried and
the last chance of bringing immediate
peace to the world was lost.
He voted against war, and now he
votes against peace" later comment
ed Senator Hitchcock upon the effect
of the LaFollettee Coup"
The apparent understanding be-
tween LaFollettee and Lodge in the
final stages of the treaty fight left a
bad taste in the mouth Of gallery

UNIQUE IN
STRIKE SETTLEMENTS

The coal settlement IS about the
only strike on record which resulted
in better wages for the laboring man
with no additional increase Of cost in
the product for the public, which pub
lie also includes the coal miner. The
constant round of strikes in the past
has gotten the laborer nowhere. To
be sure, he fought for and achieved
substantial wage increases, but these
we're promptly saddled upon the pa
ticnt public. The amounts conceded
10 labor we're Immediately levied back
upon him thru the increased price Of
living necessities More, il was levied
upon his fellow laborers, the great
mass Of warkers in the trades and
professions and on the farmers.
So this coal settlement, which gives
the miner fourteen per cent advance
in wages with no resultant addition
TO the price Of coal, is so unique as
10 mark an era in strikes. To be sure,
the miner may claim he should have
had more, but to the public il does
not appear that he has yet proved his
case. The operator may and does
innate profits, but the alarcity with
which he accepted the award inclines
Us TO the belief that he was fearful il
might be worse, as indeed IL should be
if Secretary McAdoo is correct in his
statements that coal owners have
been making outrageous profits, run
ming into the hundreds of per cent.
For two years the News Champion
has insisted that the operators were
getting rich at our expense, and that
the public had a great deal bigger
kick coming than the miner. This
looks as If It were the fact. At any
rate, suspicion is strong enough TO
warrant an investigation that will 20
