GALLERY CROWDS ROARAP AS LODGE FLAYS LEAGUE TREATY.
 HISS DEFENSE BY SEN, WILLIAMS
Senate Decom Upset When Spectators Cheer Statement of G. O. P. Leader That U. S. Will Become Subject Nation
 If League Pact Accepted; Kisses and Hos When Senator From Mississippi UphoIdS League and Charges Bad Politics

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-The tra- ditional decorum of senate procedure was upset today by unusual demon strations of approval from the galler- ies following an address by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, chairman of the foreign relations committee, assail- ing provisions of the League of Ma tions covenant.
 For more than minute the gallery spectators applauded and chered in violation of senate rules and then when order had been restored they interrupted with howls and misses a speech by Senator Williams, Demo crat, Mississippi, in reply to MT. Lodge. In spite of sharp admonitions from the chair there were more misses mingled with applause when Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, Nebraska, sec onded Senator Williams speech. Vice President Marshall made no attempt to check the first demonstration until it had begun to die out, but later he twice threatened to clear the galler- ies unless order was preserved.
 Sees U. S. Subject Nation"
 Senator Lodges address, itself un- interrupted, was made chiefly against the league provisions, which he said, would make ''the United States a sub ject nation" and ended with an appeal for the preservation of Americanism. The covenant in it's present form, he asserted, would not establish a league of peace, would destroy the Monroe doctrine and give other nations the power to decide domestic questions in the United States and to order Ameri- can troops into foreign service.
 Senator Williams bitterly assailed the foreign relations chairman, declar- ing that in three months of prepared ness he had worded his address to serve Republican political ends and to play to the galleries.
 No Plea for Total Rejection
 There was no appeal in Senator Lodges address for rejection of the league altogether, nor was there any mention of the program of reserva- tions proposed by seven Republican senators as basis of its acceptance. It was learned, however, that this pro- gram had been discussed with him by some of its sponsors and that a con ference of Republicans would be held within a few days, at which an at tempt will be made to bring the Mas senator and several others into agreement on the Shantung plan. It was understood the reservation SUD- porters felt they had good ground for believing that their proposal would be accepted by MT. Lodge and that enough Republicans then could be lined up to insure success of the should the Democratic lead CTS give their assent.
 Clashes in Committee
 The uproar in the senate chamber followed an equally tumultous session of the foreign relations committee at

American Airmen Are Missing On
 Mexico Desert

MARTA, Tex, Aug. 12.- The search for the missing army airplane carrying Lieu tenants Davis and Peterson, continued today, without re- suit. Three planes from here made flights over the coun- try south of the Presidio but found no trace of the missing men. It is believed the aviat- ors followed the course of the Rio Concho, believing it to be the Rio Grande and were far in the interior of Mexico before discovering their mistake.
 The country along the Concho is largely desert with few inhabitants.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-In an effort to prevent a spread of the strike called by the Actors Equity associa- tion to other cities, the Producing Managers Protective association an nounced tonight that its attorneys had been instructed to bring injunc- tion suits against the Equity associa- ton in Chicago, Boston and Philadel- phia restraining 1t from interfering with production in these cities
 This step was taken after the man. agers learned through reliable sources" that Francis Wilson, presi- dent of the Equity association, had left for Chicago for the purpose of attempting to call out actors there.
 It also was stated that the suits for $500, ,000 filed yesterday by the Shu- berts against the Equity association and nearly 300 of it's most prominent members, were but the forerummer of suits to be filed by other managers which would run into the millions.
 With ten theaters still dark" to- night, active pieketing was carried on by scores of we'll known actors and actresses who presented impromptu sidewalk shows to attract the crowds from theaters which were open.

[ which David Hunter Miller, legal ad- visor to the league of nations commit tee at Versailles, was vigorously questioned by Republican senators about the genesis of the league cove nant and the meaning of some of it's provisions. Clashes over the manner of questioning the witness resulted re- peatedly in intervention by the chair man to restore order
 MT. Miller said he never had seen the American plan" for a league of nations until it was in printed form ready for submission to the committee and that later the basis or discussion by the committee was a composite plan framed from the drafts of the various nations by himself and c. J. P. Hurst, legal attache of the British foreign offices.
 No Experience in Diplomacy
 Under questioning the witness said he was law partner of Gorden Auch- 1ncloss, son-in-law of Colonel E. NJ. House and never-had any experience in international negotiations until he was given an appointment in the state department in 1917.
 The witness was asked many hypo- thetical questions about the operation of the league covenant and his an swers were objected to several times by Republican members as evasive. On some of the questions he reserved judgment.
 Not to Call Colonel House
 It was the opinion of committee members, however, that MT. Miller would not be recalled and that no further witnesses would be asked to come before the committee in its con sideration of the treaty. Some mem- bers want to ask that Colonel House, who still is in Europe, be called to answer question about the league. but the general expression is that the pro- posal will be abandoned because too great delay would result.
 The Republican senators who have agreed on the reservation program are anxious that the treaty be disposed of at the earliest possible moment and it is believed they will try to impress that sentiment at the forthcoming con- ference with Senator Lodge and others.

Among the guests is perhaps the only former associate of Mr Carne- gie. who was his elder and survives him. This is Chauncey IA. Depew, now in his Seth year.
 Reciting how Carnegie had devoted millions in effort to prevent war, De pew said that the world conflict had broken MT. Carnegie's heart and that the iron master was never the same after war was declared.
 "He became obsessed. with the idea" said Mir. Depew, that the flu ture of the world depended of the abo- lition of war. He created a fund for the propaganda of peace. He built the palace at The Hague, for its home.

 Under New Cabinet Officer

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Concen- tration of the air activities of the United States, civilian, naval and mili- tary, within the direction of single governmental agency, with an official holding place in the presidents cabinet at the head, is recommended by American aviation mission head ed by Assistant Secretary of War Crowell. which has been studying air craft developments in Europe.
 In making public the report today, Secretary Baker disapproved the re- commendation for a department of aviation, holding that ''the mission has in my judgment gone too far in sug- gesting single centralized air serv- ice"
 Great Britain, the mission found, has come "to consider the dominance of the air as at least of equal import ance with that of the seas, and is frankly and avowedly planning a. definite policy of aerial development to that end"
 Any future wars will inevitably open with great aerial activity, far in advance of contact used either on land or sea- declared the mission in urging that immediate steps be taken by the United States to increase its aircraft facilities. In the next war, the mission believes, Victory can. not but incline to that belligerent able first to achieve and later main tain its supremacy in the air.''
 The mission submitted the follow ing suggestions:
 Establishment and mapping of flying fields in strategic locations, suitable for military use.
 Equipment of all flying routes, and fields at national expense with signalling and communicat- ing systems.
 Development of a meteorologi- cal service to aid flyers.
 Creation either at government expense or by private enterprise under government regulation of training facilities.
 Encouragement by the govern ment to the development of the new design and aeronautical tech nique.
 Operation by the government with other nations in determining and applying the rules which will govern the international use of aircrafts.
 Encouragement of the insur- ance of aircraft and Its person nel against all kinds of hazards.
 Encouragement through the mail and express privileges, to the organization of private enter prises for carrying aerial trans portation.
 Conservation of the remaining aircraft production.

WASHINGTON, Aug 12.-An ap- propriation of $500,0 ,000 for invetigation of the increased cost of living by the federal trade committee was asked of congress today by Acting Chairman Murdock of the committee, in a letter to Speaker Gillett. Funds for the com mittee already authprized are insuffi- cient to conduct the proposed inqui- ries, the letter said.
 Chairman Murdock, who also is a member of the subcommittee named by Attorney General Palmer to submit recommendations for reducing living costs, set forth in his letter that the committee proposes to conduct further investigation as to the production, storage and distribution of foodstuffs. with the aim of arriving at figures on the real cost and wholesale and retail prices.
