tion Against Reservations

ified that the senate foreign rela-
tions committee had decided to
speed up consideration OF the peace
treaty, President Wilson. it was said

House that the attitude of Senator
Hitchcock, of Nebraska, who told the
foreign relations committee yester-
day that unless the committee re-
ported the treaty out in the near
future an attempt would be made to
have it called up in the senate, re-
fiected that OF the president.
Plans of individual committee
members for disengaging the United
States from various obligations in
relation to European affairs are di-
rected along several lines.
Senator Fall, republican,, New
Mexico, expects to move to strike out
Of the treaty all reference to Ameri-
can participation In the various COM

construction in Europe.

vania, proposes to urge both in the
committee and in the senate a mo-
tion that the peace terms and the
league covenant be divorced from
the latter left for further considera-
tion after the treaty is ratified.
Senators Borah and Johnson are
understood to favor definitely defeat
ing the league by striking it bodily

WASHINGTON
WARNS MEXICO
Radical Change in Policy il
9Carranza Still Fails to Pro-
teCt Americans,

washington, Aug. 14.-Warninq
that there would be a radical
change in the policy of the Amer
lean government regarding Mex
leo IL the Carranza government
continued to fail to protect Amer
leans in that country, was con-
tanned in note sent to the Mex
lean foreign office, July 22.
That the note had been dispatched
was disclosed today by the state de.
partment, together with the infor.
nation that in its reply the Mexican
government had said that everythins
possible already was being done ia
protect foreigners. There was a sug-
gestion that unless foreigners con-
centrated In populous places it would
be impossible to afford them the
protection demanded.
Notification of possible change OF
policy was made by the American
embassy at Mexico City on instruc-
tions from the state department
which determined upon this course
as result of the long series of MUIR
ders and outrages Of Americans in
Mexico, eliminating in the murder
of Peter Catron, in San Luis Potosi
last.month.
Plot Against Carranza.
New Orleans. Aug. 14.-What was
believed by governemnt officers to
have been a plot to overthrow the
Carranza government Of Mexico was
unearthed here today by the arrest of
Col. Fernando Villarse and Col.
Augustin Flores, former officers of
the Mexican federal army, and Euca-
rio Huerta, an employe of the Mex
lean customs house at Vera Cruz.
Surprised at "Menace."
In connection with the death OF
Catron the usual representations re-
garding the capture and punishment
of those responsible were made, but
the note concluded as follows:
'I am also instructed to state that
should the lives of American citizens
continue to remain unsafe and these
murders continue by reason of the
or inability of the
Mexican government to afford ade-
uuate protection, my government
may be forced to adopt a radical
change in its policy with regard to
Mexico"
The communication was signed by
George T. Summerlin. charge daft
faires. Surprise was displayed in the
reply of the Mexican government at
what is styled the menace" con-
tained in the American note. 1t was
suggested that it appeared strange
that such demand for protection
should be given foreigners in sparsely
settled districts when crimes often
go undetected in the "most populous
cities OF the most cultured coun-
triesP and where acts of violence
are often committed" without the re-
spective governments thereby be-
coming the object of severe observa-
tions.

Baker Deserts Pullman for Cab
To Talk With Father of Soldier;
To Inspect Oglethorpe Saturday
Brigade Post Depends
On Army Bin--Baker

There are large group of scien-
lists at work In Washington at the
university and agricultural colleges
and experiment stations throughout
the country. all working on the same
problem of ways to use chemical
forms in which air nitrogen can be
made into fertilizer" he stated.
Secretary Baker declared that the
purpose OF the operation of the nj
trate plants is twofold: First, to free
the government from dependence on
other nations for nitrate in time of
war: second, to aid agriculture in
getting a cheap fertilizer In time Of
peace.
1.-THE work done at Muscle shoals
was all principally emergency war
work. but we had in mind constantly
the possibility of peacetime use of
the plants for the production of fer
tihzer. The war is over now and
our studies are how to get the maxi
mum usefulness out of the plants for
these two purposes" he added.
Almon Talks.
In speaking of the plants at Muscle
Shoals project, Congressman Almon. of
Alabama, who represents the Muscle
Shoals district. said that he understood
that both Of the nitrate plants had al
ready been completed ana that SUM-
cient funds have also been made avail
able by the president for the completion
of the dam. Congressman Almon pointed
out that Secretary Baker Is
greatly interested in this subject Of
producing fertilizer at these nitrate
plants.
The Alabama congressman also said
that at the National Farmers union a
resolution was passed recommending
and asking that the new water power
dam at Muscle Shoals be named and
called "the Wilson dam" Just a few
days ago the secretary of war made and
issued an order giving the new dam the
name. Wilson dam" Mr.. Almon said
that 1t has also been suggested that the
great lake that will be formed by this
dam be called Lake Baker" in honor
OF Secretary Baker. who has taken such
great interest In this development.
Congressman Almon also pointed out
that Secretary Bakers visit to Muscle
Shoals will no doubt mean much for
the future policies and development OF
the nitrate plants. He said that al
ready $40, ,000, 900 has been spent on the
nitrate plants and that $4,000, 900 has
been set aside for the building OF the
dam, which will require from two to
three years time. He said further that
a large force of 1000 men are at work
on the dam now and that the dam Is
being pushed to its completion as
quickly as possible. Congressman Al
mon has spent much OF his time in the
interest of this big project.

Whether or not Fort Oglethorpe is
to be brigade post depends upon
the size of the standing army allowed
under the new reorganization bill,
Secretary of War Baker Thursday
morning. -
When Mr.. Baker was asked to give
his opinion relative to the future OF
Fort Oglethorpe, he declared that he
could not give out anything now.
Returned soldiers will have a splen-
did effect on the United States as a
whole in the secretary's opinion.
THE American soldiers have been
educated both in mind and body, and
by their great experiences they have
more serious views of life than men
of the same age would ordinarily ac-
quire. They have developed new ca
pacities and higher ambitions, both
for themselves and their country
Accordingly they bring back with
them zeal, character and capacity
beneficial to the country" he de-
clared.
The fate of the new 100000, oOC

American. with pleasing disposi-
tion, and willing and ready to talk
on subjects on which he was informed

When asked If he thought Gen
Wood or Gen. Pershing would be can

he was going to Sheffield mainly tc

tain Just how much power can be

the fact that the plants at Muscle
