An american 81 Bill Did This

Motberless, fatherless, homeless
nameless, hungry aid clad only in
rags, the pathetic little three-year-old
shown at the left wandered into a
Near East Relief orphanage In Ar
menia. Another photograph of the
same child, shown at the right, was
taken week later, this time showing
him happy, well clothed and well fed.
Somewhere In America Is the happy
man or woman who contributed the 81
bill which wrought this miracle. More
than quarter million other helpless
little victims Of Turkish cruelty and
oppression are knocking at the doors
Of the Near East Relief orphanages In
Western Asia. Many more American

sberman AssaiIs Edsel Ford.

washington, July 16.-Exemption
from military service of Edsel Ford,
son of the Detroit automobile manu-
facturer, was the subject OF an attack
in the senate Tuesday by Senator
Sherman, Republican, Illinois, who
said young Ford was a presidential
pet and had been saved from serv-
ing in the army by an abuse of execu-
tive power. The Illinois senator as
serted that as a member of the COM
mittee considering the Ford-Newberry
senatorial contest, he had asked Secre-
tary Baker for a copy of the proceed
ing in the Ford exemption proceed
ings, but that the request had been
denied on the ground that the hear
ings were not a public record. Mr..
Sherman said he desired to establish
that Henry Ford had been defeated in
the senatorial election because of the
contempt" of the people of Michigan
over his sons exemption.

Final Battle Between Allies and
Bella Kun Impends.
Allies Urged To Adopt Drastic
Measures Immediately.
vienna A HOT BED OF REDS
Central and Southwest Europe
Menaced by BoIshevism.
Reds, With Vienna as Center,
Might Sweep Europe.

PARIS, July ia final armed
struggle between the allies and the
Hungarian Reds. with Vienna as the
supreme objective, was foreseen to-
day.
The allies have reached definite con-
clusion that central and southeastern
Europe is menaced by a wave of Boil
shevism. 1t was declared today that
unless Vienna can be saved from the
Bolsheviki and permitted to become
the capital of a stable government,
the peace outlook in Europe will be
dubious for years to come.
The Bolsheviki apparently realize as
fully as the peace commissioners the
supreme strategic Importance of Wen
ma Consequently the Hungarian So
viets were reported to be stalking
everything upon a final effort to es-
tablish a soviet republic in Vienna
government succeeds in signing peace
with the allies and placing itself on
a solid basis.
Should the soviets realize their OBJ
jective. it was asserted In allied quar-
ters, they would possess in Vienna a
point from which it would be possible
to extend their influence into Slovania,
Italy, Switzerland, Bavaria, Bohemia
and Poland.
According to dispatches from Wen
ma and Budapest allied commissions
have sent special couriers to Paris
asking the peace conference to adopt
Immediately the most drastic meas
ures. That Marshal Foch has begun
to collect military information already
is known.
Budapest dispatches also indicate to-
day that a combined allied offensive
under General Espercyi was ex-
pected daily.
Ready for Action.
The Rumanian, Czecho-Slovak and
Polish armies. with French and Italian
contingents, are already for action, it
was said today. Meanwhile, Swiss dis
patches announced the Hungarian
Reds were being reinforced by Rus
sian soviet troops.
Bella Kun, Hungarian soyi& leader,
has been warned by the allies that
foreign securities in Budapest must
be respected. The warning was the
result of an order confiscating foreign
bonds in Hungary.
Bella Kun sent a note to the allies
yesterday denying he was violating the
terms of the armistice. He charged
the Czecho-Sloyalzs and the Ruman-
iaus were the offenders and asked
what action the allies intended to take.

President VIII Ask Senators To
Call ON Him.
VIII Discuss Treaty and League
With Opponents.
TO CONFER WITH Sen. LODGE
Wilson Starts Drafting Speech
on Defense Treaty.
Think President Will Defend
League in Borah'S State.

Washington, July 1s. - President
Wilson has decided to invite Republic
cans senator's to call at the White
House to discuss the peace treaty and
the league of nations, Secretary Tum-
ulty announced today.
Senator Lodge. chairman of the for
eirn relations committee. was under
stood TO be one of the Is Republican
senators with whom the president de-
sired especially to confer.
1t was believed he would take the
Republicans into his confidence with
regard to the proceedings at Paris, ana
thus seek to weaken opposition TO the
peace treaty and the league of ma
tions in the senate.
Senator Pomerene, member of the
foreign relations committee, Will make
an early call on the president. it was
stated.
Wilson also invited Senator Cham
berlain to the White House. Signifi-
canoe was attached to this, as ill-feel-
ing was reputed to have existed be-
tween the president and the Oregon
senator since Chamberlain denounced
the governments military policy dur
ing the war.
The president planned today to keep
open house for members of congress
from o a. m until noon. He devoted
those hours to meeting senators and
representatives whether they had ap-
pointments or not.
Starts Work on New Speech.
President Wilson was understood to
have started work drafting the speech
he will make to the senate in pre-
senting for ratification the agreement
whereby America and Britain are
bound to aid France against unpro-
voked German aggression.
With senate debate over the peace
treaty and the league of nations al
ready hot, the president is making
ready to inject into the controversy Is
sues which probably will increase the
feverishness Of the argument
Just when he will appear before the
senator's with, the agreement is prob
lematicaI and it is believed depends
largely on the developments in the
present debate. At the moment which
is considered most opportune for an
other speech in behalf of the settle
ment at Paris, the presidents friends
look for him to go to the capitol
Before starting on his trans-cond-
mental tour, the president is expected
to have a long conference with Secre-
tary Lansing-en route home from
Paris-to learn from him the present
feeling In Europe and bring up to date
the information he will use in his
speeches appealing for support for
the covenant and treaty.
To Borah's Home Town.
An early reply is anticipated from
the White House to Senator Lodges
resolution asking for the alleged Sc
cret treaty between Japan and Ger
many. Government officials say they
have no knowledge OF it.
There was much discussion today
over whether the president on his tour
would invade Idaho, home state of
Senator Borah, chief opponent of the
league of nations. 1t was considered
likely Wilson would make a speech,
probably at Boise, to explain to
Borah's own townspeople and con-
stituents his reasons for urging the
United States to join the league.
