CITY WINS STRIKE;
GARBAGE MEN BACK

The city of Memphis has come out
victorious in the garbage wagon driv-
ers' strike, all OF the SO wagons except
eight being on the job Thursday. For
ty-two men in all reported for work
Thursday and the crematories reported
all men present.
The men struck for a fiat daily wage
Of $3.50 day instead OF 80 cents an
hour for an eight-hour day. The city
commissioners told the men that they
could not meet the demand due to the
fact that the city was operating under
a budget and could not exceed that
budget by any increases in wages
For a while things looked gloomy, as
the men who desired to return to work
were threatened and intimidated by
others, but the city broke up this inter-
ference by placing sanitary officers on
the carts and instructed them to ar
rest any person interfering with the
men.
The street situation has not improv-
ed, only 20 men out of total Of 40
being at work. This department, how
ever, is not now In urgent need Of
the services of the strikers. as the em-
barge on materials due to the railroad
shopmen's strike is now on. The de-
partment heads say they will hold out
and pick up men to substitute for those
who have walked out.
All the men are negroes.

U. S.-FRENCH TREATY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7,--Debate on
the peace. treaty in the senate today
revolved largely around the question
Of whether the league OF nations cove
nant or the special treaty with France
violate the federal constitution by cur
falling the power Of congress- to decide
questions efspeace and war
Senator Nellogg, Republican, Minne-
sofa, In prepared argument on the
treaty making power, declared there
were ample precedents for treaty pro-
visions obligating the country to 20 to
war In certain circumstances and bind
ing congress to enact certain legisla ;
tion.
The debate was on, a resolution called
up by Senator Walsh, Democrat, Mon
tana, under which the senate judiciary
committee would be asked for an opin-
ion whether there were any constitu-
tional barrier to ratification OF the
French treaty, binding the United States
to aid that nation In any unprovoked
attack from Germany. Most OF Sena-
tor Kelloggs argument, however. was
directed principally TO provisions of the
league covenant.
