FEAR COVENANTS FATE
BY LAURENCE HILLS.
sta6 Correspondent Of THr sux

IAHS, March 3O.-PreSident Will
son told a group Of visiting Repre-
sentatives OF Congress to-day that the
time had come for a showdown. that
there would be no more long discus
sions, but he again expressed che
hope that the peace treaty would be
finished within reasonable time.
The Representatives discussed the
situation in the United States, SAYING
that sentiment plainly is for the In.
clusion Of the Monroe Doctrine and
also for a clause making it clear that
America will not be compelled to par
ticipate in the minor squabbles of
Europe.
The President replied that many
changes had been made in the cove
nant Of the League of Nations and
explained the requirements Of unanI.
nous votes as meaning that the
United States could not be involved
without her consent. He is said 10
have used strong language in seeking
TO absolve the covenant of the league
for responsibility for delaying peace.
May Issue Statement.
1t was pointed out that IL the pres
ent situation continues much longer
the President must resort to drastic
moves to save his prestige. This
suggests that he will issue a state
ment defending himself and insisting
that public sentiment compel the op-
ponents of his plan to yield.
That the President believes ~
holds strong card to play as his
last resource was indicated broadly
In his Boston speech. His friends
now are asking If the time has not
come to play it, despite the efforts
that arc being made to represent the
situation as without hope for a treaty
on May 1. The latest move of the
French in coupling the boundaries
and reparation questions has created
a new impasse, making the whole
weeks deliberations barren of result.
The French demand the Saar Valley
In perpetuity and unless this is
granted they refuse to make any
change in regard to reparations.
Opposed to Annexation.
President Wilson Is willing that
France should get economic advan-
tages in the Saar Valley until her
claims are settled. but he regards the
annexation Of that district as irrec-
oncilable with the self-determina-
ton principle, which he Is insisting
upon with great vigor since the Hun
garian incident. 1t Is known that he
Is greatly discouraged by this latest
impasse.
The statement OF the President Ia
regard 10 the league last week is said
TO be the beginning Of an attempt to
abSolve himself. an attempt that.
tndging from what is heard In dIplo.
matte quarters notable in the past
for the support OF his policies, will
be fruitless. The conviction that the
League of Nations should wait until
peace has been made with Germany
Is encountered now In many delega
tons. which despair OF having their
problems settled under the present
plan.

PARIS. March 30.-Amer!can opposi-
ton to the plan OF forming an allied
anti Bolshevik front in central Eu-
rope has become palmer and the
American Commission apparently has
made UP its mind that while such q
front might stop the Bolsheviki It could
not stop. Bolshevism. At tho same
time 1t was brought out that one Of
the main points in the American ar
gument that the United States must
be kept out of any action taken
against the Bolsheviki Is that Amer
lea can do nothing against them until
Congress meets.
TIE sending of troops against the
Bolshevlki by the United States in a
concerted campaign is held to be
equivalent to making war upon what
is the de facto Government OF q
large part OF Russia, and II would be
impossible for the United States TO
take such action without the sanction
OF Congress.
Heavy Task for United states.
To suggestions that this has been
oone already in the Archangel and
Vladivostok expeditions the answer is
made that this is merely police work.
whereas what Is now contemplated in
tho French military party's plan is
tull fiedged war.
II Is said, furthermore, that the

HOW LARGE SUMS CAN
BE SAVED ON SERVICE
Most People Fail to Consider What
Help In Homo Really Costs in the
Long Run.

In any plan for national economy
British specialists think that the
household rather than the family
should be taken as unit Under
household consumption they include
% services rendered maintaining the
house and its inmates, (2) the goods
consumed or acquired by the inmates.
CD the general charges OF cleaning.
decorating. offsetting deterioration.
etc.
AS start in q saving program the
British Commission has pointed out
that services should be valued even
more highly than goods. as each per
son doing unnecessary and unproduc-
tive work not only consumes without
producing. but is also depriving the
country Of possible productive power.
Translated into terms OF American
saving. this service idea would mean,
do not hire any one to do what you
gan do for yourself in spare time un-
sess you find il directly profitable"
Few Americans are really honest
with themselves as TO the cost OF ser
vices. Not one family in hundred
really knows what servant actually
costs. Most OF them place the cost
OF her wages and fail to count in her
food light and other things she con
sumes. Most OF them. moreover, have
no way OF figuring correctly the extra
waste OF food or extra breakage or
wear and tear due TO the fact that
the servant does not have the interest
OF ownership for making things 20 as
far as possible. Few families know
at the end OF the year the important
total that the odd jobs" man or hedge
cutter or grass trimmer has cost them
for service that might as we'll havo
been rendered as recreation or need
ed outdoor exercise by the man or
boys OF the family.
This OF course. does not mean that
- service should he purchased
Where q housewives time is worth

Conquered Desert Sand.

The British adopted giant "snow.

Egyptian desert according to Nal
John Balm Of the British army. who
served In the near East. The scheme.
which was based on the same theory
that caused the Indian 10 adopt the

army was marching TO Palestine. The

and horses. so that days march

two or three mile advance

much greater progress was made, and
