Until the women OF the government

tion, speaking to a meeting of women
from the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing at typographical Temple
yesterday.
The meeting was held under joint
auspices Of the Women's Trade Union
League and the Women's Union,
Miss Mary Anderson. chairman of
the Women's Trade Union League,
presiding. Miss Nora B. James is
president. and Miss Gertrude Nc

The Women's Union, which is

only local within the federation
composed entirely of women, Stew
ard pointed out, and il is one of the
most active and efficient of the 1877
unions throughout the country.
Urging the members of the Wom-
ems Union to take an active part in
furnishing information from their
experience as to the cost of living,
Steward told them that they should
emphasize especially the fact that
the families with small margin could
not take advantage of seasonal re-

tended to support reservations to the

McNary. who has been for the treaty.
and against reservations from the
very beginning.
Senator Charles Curtis, the Repub-
hcan whip. declared yesterday. after
a careful survey of the situation. that
not one vote has been changed by the
PRESIDENT as the result of his confer
ences with the Republicans. 1t was
1urther stated that word had been
carried to the President that he
might have a copy OF the list of the
tnlrty-hye Senators who will stand
out to the last against ratification of
lhe treaty unless reservations are
made If he cared to have it. The
oner was not accepted
Bill Given Hitchcock.
A bill to create the machinery for

pared by administration officials and
mas oeen given to Senator Hitchcock
lor introduction. This bill provides
that the American officials in the
league shall be appointed by the
president by and with the advice
and consent Of the Senate"
opponents Of the league assert that
the purpose of presenting this bill is
10 attempt TO shut OF some of the
opposition. by showing that the SEN
ate Is to have a voice in the selection
OF the American representatives in the
league organization.
The ShantunS case is very much
alive in the Senate and is likely to
De the subject of more speeches. SEN
ator Moses, discussing it yesterday.
said:
Does anyone think that prtyats
conversations with Baron Maxine at
Paris are going to hold against the
written word in the treaty? Is there
anything in the treaty which saws
that Japan must return Shantung in
six months? Not a bit of II, The
treaty language is that GERMANY
renounces all her rights in favor of
Japan.s and II is well known that Ger
man was there to stay. Therefore
SO FAR as the treaty is concerned
Japan may stay as long as she likes
and nobody believes that she will
not"

said Senator Watson. I'VE have
permitted this sort of thing to go
on ever since Mr.. Wilson has been
President. And it looks as though
he tolerates it."
That's the usual treatment" was
the comment of Senator Ashurst-
TT is just the ordinary treatment
of Americans by Mexicans. Every
Intelligent man knows that acts
like that are the usual thing"
TT is not the first time the Amer
ican flag has been insulted in Mex
ico." declared Senator Fall. Pos
sibly the Navy Department can give
some information regarding the fir-
ing on the flag by Carranzista SOL
diers in Tampico in 1916.
Int is a typical incident" said
Senator Harry S. New. 1T is SIM
ply a repetition of similar outrages
borne by the United States so long
that patience has ceased to be vir-
tue"
The reason for the delay in max
ing public u news OF the attack

tending Congressional investigation OF
