Two Great Elements, Business Men

Washing ton.-As the President ap-
proaches the White House, the oppo-
sition to the league OF nations crum-
b.es. 1t has been apparent here for
days, ever since Elihu Root fired into
the Knox resolution, that the repmhli-
cans as a party would never oppose
the league OF nations.
A few personally ambitious senators
or the Boraa and Hiram johnson
type, are out for applause from the
gallery, but plain. practical states
men OF the Penrose and Will II. Hays
type, are. like "br'cr fox" saying moth

Secretary Daniels has Just returned
from speaking trip in Ohio. Illinois
and other states OF the middle west.
He is convinced that the President
is very strong there.
1t is believed here that after spir-
tied debate OF days. or perhaps weeks.
the war will be closed by the ratifica-

kONENkAMP HAS CALLED OFF
GREAT TELEGRAPHERS STRIKE

Chicago.-The strike Of telegraphers
was called off by S. J. Konenkamp,
president OF the Commercial Telegra.
piers Union OF America.
President Konenkamp called off tho
strike after he had conferred with
other officials Of the union.
A statement addressed to the mem
bers OF the organization by President
Konenkamp read in part:
when the present strike was de-
clared against the telegraph companies
under control OF the wire administra-
tion, it was understood it would not
be made an endurance contest. Tho
strike, was to be the final protest
against the unfair and unjust treat
ment we have received since August,
1918. at the hands OF the wire admin
istration.
I'VE realized that in order to make
this protest effective II would be nec-
essary to make tho strike sufficiently
acute to compel action. This does not
seem possible now, either through our
efforts or the efforts of others we re-
lied upon to help US. Acting upon
this conclusion and with view to
s rving your best interests, I hereby
declare the strike at an end and you
are instructed to work without fur
ther delay. You have made a gallant
struggle for your rights as American
workingmen and women.

BEER QUESTION NOT NOW ONE
OF LAW BUT MATTER OF FACT

Washingtcn.-Conte that no
court may say, as matter Of law,
what percentage Of alcohol in liquor
makes 1t intoxicating, the judiciary
committee. in report to the house on
prohibition enforcement legislation de-
clared this was a question of fact and
not law, and as such was clearly with
in the province Of Congress.
The committee held that the right OF
Congress to define Intoxicating H.
quor' as a beverage containing more
than one-half OF one percent alcohol
was in full accord with its constitu-
tional powers, and that every state,
in dealing with alcoholic liquors. had
named products Of that percentage as
Intoxicating and had either prohibited
use OF such liquors or subjected them
to heavy tax.
ITO define what Is intoxicating does
not trespass on the province OF the
court" said the majority report pre-
pared by Chairman Volstead.

First OF all. 1t should be made clear
that recent message about the al
legged flight OF the crown prince was
based upon the misconception that the
Hohenzollerns are prisoners. On the
contrary. they have full liberty to
leave and their departure would even
be welcomed by the government.
