Senate Committee Seeks to Re-
strict Participation on World
Commissions.
WHIRL WIND OF DEBATE
Proposal to Amend Shantung Section
of Peace Treaty Brings AGRA
monous. Discussion in
Senate Itself.

Washington, Aug 28.-Provision for
American representation on score OF
international commissions to carry out
details of the peace settlement would
be stricken out of the peace treaty
under a sweeping amendment adopted
by the senate foreign relations COM
mittee.
Later in the senate itself the COM
mittee's previous decision to amend
the Shantung section raised whirl-
wind of debate with Senator McCum-
her, North Dakota bitterly attacking
the committees course, and Senator
!Borah, Idaho, defending 1t. Both are
Republican members of the commit
tee.
Afterward Senator Hitchcock OF
Nebraska the Democratic leader,
talked over the possibilities of the sit
uation with President Wilson at the
White House and predicted afterWard
that all amendments would be defeat
ed eventually and that the treaty
would be ratified during September.
Divide on Party Lines.
/ In it's decision regarding American
participation in the reconstruction
commissions, the committee divided on
party lines, the nine Republicans pres
ent standing as a unit for the amend
ment and the seven Democratic votes
all being recorded in the negative.
Senator McCumber, who voted with
the Democrats against the Shantung
amendment, was absent.
An exception was made to the com
mittee of the Preparations commission,
which is to have charge of the collec-
ton of Germany's indemnity bill
Senator Fall, Republican, New Mexico,
who presented the amendment, said
he had not proposed taking the Ameri-
can representative from this commits
sion because he felt American inter
ests might be directly involved in it's
work.
Blow at China, Says McCumber.
In the commissions which are affect
ed by the amendment, Mr. Fall said
American interest would be so indirect
as not to compensate for the dangers
of becoming hopelesesly involved in
European affairs.
In the speech in the senate, Senator
McCumber declared the committee
majority really intended the Shantung
amendment to drive a poisoned
blade into the treaty with the pur-
pose of killing the league of nations.

NEW KINDS OF BEEF

Musk OK. says Stefansson. the fa-
nous Arctic explorer, is destined to
be the most common form OF meat
served on American tables within 40
years. This meat is not only very
good and palatable. but 1t is so much
like the familiar beef that consumers
can only tell the two varieties apart
by the mark stamped upon them.
Reindeer meat, too, is to be used
generally in this country. The meat
is considered by many people to be
about as palatable as beef The
price of both these meats ought 10
be considerably less than current
prices for beef. The animals can
be raised very cheaply indeed. and
require little care.
The hides of the musk OK and
reindeer are also valuable. Reindeer
skin makes excellent glove and shoe
leather. And the musk OK has been
called by the explorer Cow with
a coat of wool" 1t has a woolly
coat concealed beneath its long.
hairy outer coat. which has manu-
featuring possibilities.
At present Mr.. Stefansson is in
Canada working for the government
with the purpose of introducing these
meats in that country. He antici-
pates early success. There is no rea-
son why he should not succeed in
Canada or why the use of such meat
should not spread to this country.
People who shrink from the use of
locusts in their normal diet will
surely find no objection 10 venison

just as good as our American beef
and much cheaper.

100000 NEW VOTES

A recent conference of the demo-
cratic national committee is said to
have spent most of its time discus
sing methods of reaching the women
voters. 1t is safe to say that the re-
publican national committee is deep
ly interested in the same problem,
and that il the much advertised
third party" is formed, it will like
wise devote its best efforts to win
ming the women.
There is good practical reason for
all this political courtship. It is es-
timated that If the suffrage amend
ment is ratified in time for the next
presidential election, as it is likely to
be, there will be 100000 new
feminine ballots. Added to the WON
en- already possessing the franchise
these millions might easily decide
the approaching national election.
There is no expectation that the
women will stick together very con.
spicuously. Most of them will prob.
ably vote as their male relatives and
friends do. But there is no telling
Women may be just as uncertain a
factor in politics as they are in other
matters. And inasmuch as there Is
generally no very wide margin Of
strength between the two big par.
ties, it is possible that a million OF
two of women sticking together fol
any definite purpose might WELD tn,
balance Of power.
The women, at any any rate, need
have no fear Of being treated dis

big things are not to be despised.
We Americans are just as good was
ters at wholesale as we are at re-
tail. Take strikes. for example.
l am just as eager as anybody
that every man gets everything that
is coming to him. But a strike, at
that. is a somewhat expensive amuse-
ment. 1t is like a doctor; 1t ought
to be called in only when it is ne
cessary, for the doctors bill is likely
to be large.
1t might be grand idea IL we
would all agree to go back to work
for a month and see how it would
work out. You remember about the
old lady who couldn't get home be-
cause the stick wouldn't beat the
dog, and the fire wouldn't burn the
stick, and the water wouldn't quench
the fire, ETC.? But when they did
begin to do their duty and to beat
and to burn and to quench, ETC., the
old lady got home in jiffy; or may
be it was a iitney. Anyway she got
home.
There is a lot of unrest in the
country, and it isn't all due to the
coolies. That is, that is what peo-
pie say. But the trouble with the
country isn't too much unrest as
much as it is too much resting. Let
US reduce the waste of resting, and
that will take care of the rest.
