Washington. Sept. so-The pro-
league forces in the senate are De-
tween the devil and the deep sea as
result of President Wilson's firm re-
fusal to compromise in the treaty fight
followed by his nervous breakdown. In
stead Of the ,presidents return to
Washington having the expected clar-
flying effect on the situation 1t has
only thrown these senators into fur
Their confusion.
The presidents last public utterance
was q declaration that he would regard
the adoption Of the compromise reser-
walton on Article X. as rejection of
tho peace treaty. This was discon-
certing enough. but the pro-treaty
when the president reached Washing
ton they would be able to convince
him that further insistence on the I'M
qualified ratification Of the peace
treaty would be futile.
But now they are confronted by the
additional complication of the presi-
dents illness. Senator Hitchcock, the
presidents spokesman, called the
White House on the telephone today
and placed himself at the presidents
disposal for conference whenever
Mr. Wilson desired. He was told 1t
would be week before the president
would see him. Senator Swanson, of
Virginia, another Of the administration
pilots in the presidents confidence,
said it might be a week before the
president would be able to confer about
the situation.
The plight OF the administration
leaders is that they can not compro-
mise without the presidents consent
and they know the treaty is defeated
If they don't accept reservations.
Their position would be simplified II
the president told them to vote against
ratification in the event the Senate
adopts strong reservations and amend
ments. but there Is no direct word
from the president on this subject
Ex-President Talft voiced the senti-
ment not only Of the mild reservation
lists, but Of many democratic senators
as well, when, in signed article, he
sharply criticized the president for re-
fusing to see that the treaty will fail
unless reservations are accepted. Mr..
Taft and the few in the senate who
follow him In the treaty fight think
the presidents stand is unfair to those
who honestly want league Of nations
and who are willing to accept half q
loaf as better than none.
Meanwhile, virtually no Roadway is
being made towards the final dispo-
sition Of the treaty in the senate, un-
less the gradual exhaustion Of speech.
making can be counted as progress.

were saved.
The railroad bridge over the Kama
at Perm. go yards long was put out
of commission by the Siberian mill
tary before leaving. 1t is not so
seriously damaged, however. that II
can not be easily repaired. One COM

The Kama fleet, thirty vessels,
several Of which had been converted
into gunboats but later dismantled,
was accidentally burned.
General Jack left Perm four hours
before the bolshevik shells began to
fall in the town. With him came
Otto T. Glaman, American vice con-
sui, who had been asked by the Rus
sian authorities to remain at his post
as late as possible for the moral effect
Of his presence on the population dur
ing the days of evacuation. General
Jack was loud in his praises Of
Glaman for valuable assistance rem
dered him in keeping trains moving.
The peasant population as well as
the bourgeoisie fled before the boil
shevik advance. Families loaded their
possessions onto carts or boNcars and
took the road east Every country

carts moving in caravans, leadlns

REpFIELo WARNS LABOR.
Leaders Told They May Aiienste Pub
Ito Support by RadicafIsm.

Washington, Sept 30.-Secretary Of
Commerce William c. Redfelc ssrd
yesterday that the belief Is growing
thruout the country that the latest de-
mands Of some labor leaders are act
uated by desire to get more power
and not by economic necessity and as
a consequence, organized labor Is los
ing ground.
SOrganized labor Is losing tho sym
patty of the general public" Mr.. Red
field said. and unless its attitude and
actions undergo alterations soon, the
union movement will sufler q serious
reverse.
Many union labor workers who
believe some Of the leaders are MAX
ing exorbitant demands and disturbing
industry thereby. with the effect Of
hurting seriously and perhaps perman-
emily, the just cause of unionism."
Secretary Redheld.7 discussing the
forthcoming Industrial conference at
the White House, said he thought no
definite. contractura agreements wvuiu
be reached between capital and labor
but that the conferences would be q
sort of get together affair at which
all elements would discover something
good In the other fellow.
There will be, at the conference,
he said, "a number Of employers who
have happily solved their, individual
labor problems with entire satisfac-
ltion to themselves and their en-
'Hloyes. Their workers have a voice in
TIL management and q share in the
prhts.
This condition has in the past been
so,is ht by organized labor, I under
sta1d. but I'm told the labor leaders
now oppose this very idea Of profit
sharing and voice in management.
We'll, wonder If agitators aren't
fighting the idea now because they feel
they will lose their Jobs and their in
fiuence with the workers themselves
when the idea becomes an actually
generally In American industry"

HOW ABOUT IT7 ARE
YOU LOOKING AFTER
YOUR RENT BUSINESS?

II you have a business, you
do not expect that 1t will pros
per unless you look after 1t.
J The business that Is left to run
Itself does not get anywhere.
It may move along after a FASH
lon, and manage to pay ex-
penses, but without attention II
will not produce a profit.
Following the suggestion OF
the Times Republican, that
people who have rooms to rent
advertise them, so that new
people seeking residence here
could be accommodated as far
as possible, several have adver-
tised rooms to rent But after
starting a new business OF rent
ing rooms, they were not on
hand to look after the business.
Here is a complaint offered by
one who sought to rent a room:
editor Times-Republican: /
read your tip to. those who had
rooms to rent to advertise them
In the T.-R I called every
person who advertised Saturday,
Sept. y, and out Of eight called
two answered. 1t would have
been very much to the point II
Won had also advised advertisers
TO remain at home and take care
Of the business they sought thru
the T.-R"
II a merchant advertises
special Saturday night sale to
attract buyers he does not close
his store Saturday evening.
If you advertise a~room to rent
YOU ought to make some kind OF
provision to answer inquidies OF
those you expect to reach thru
your advertising.
T.-R. classified ads cost cent
per word. They will bring re-
suits II you viii let them.
