Senate Talks All Day and the
Prospects of Action on Cali
fornian'S Amendment to the
Treaty Seems Far Away,
LODGE LEADS WAR FOR
CERTAIN RESERVATIONS
Argues in Favor Of the Pro-
poSaI, or Similar Provision,
So As to Properly Protect
American People,
tBr MORNING Jou.sAL SPECIAL LEASED ~sE

Washington, Oct. 25.-After talking
all day on the Johnson amendment to
the peace treaty, the senate tonight
seemed further away from a vote on
the proposal than it was when the
days debate started.
Leaders on both sides had been
hopeful of roll call before adjourn
ment, but when the administration
managers tried to get a specific time
to vote. they found the republican
managers unwilling to bind them
selves to action today, Monday, Tues
day or Wednesday.
On the republican side 1t was pre-
.dicted that vote might come any
one of these days, however, and Re-
publican Leader Lodge announced
that he was preparing to prolong Mon
days session so as to hasten the de-
bale.
Senator Lodge led in person today
the fight for the amendments against
an opposition which for several days
has made its defeat foregone conclu-
sion. He argued that while the john
son proposal would not accomplish
completely the equalization of voting
power in the league, it or some similar
provision was necessary to protect
American interests.
The amendment, which provides in
.efsect 'hal thG I1pited states shall
hipe as many Votes as Great Brltaln
and her dominons in any decisions by
the league was opposed as impracti-
cable and unworkable by Senator Nc
Cumber, republican, of North Dakota,
and by Senator Thomas, democrat, of
Colorado. They both urged a reserva-
ton on the subject, but Senator Bo-
rah, republican, of Idaho, argued that
the situation could best be met by
amending the treaty.
The request for an agreement to
vote today was made by Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska, the admins
tration leader, and included both the
Johnson amendment and that by Sem
ator Moses republican, Of New Hamp-
shire, which deals with the same sub
ject. objection promptly was made
by senator Johnson, republican, of
California, author of the former meas
use, who said that Senator Reed,
democrat, of Missouri, desired to
speak for the amendment and was I'M
able to be present because of illness.

Washington, Oct 25-Acting on in
structions from the state department,
the American embassy at Mexico City
has demanded of the Mexican governs
ment that 1t effect the release of
William o. Jenkins, American consul
lar agent at Puebla, who is held by
bandits for S150000 ransom. The
American government insisted that il
necessary the ransom be paid by
Mexico.
Concident with this announcement
today Senator Myers, democrat, Mon-
tana, introduced resolution calling
upon President Wilson TO use the
armed forces of the United States il
necessary to bring about the release
of Jenkins and to punish his captors.
Action on the resolution was deferred
until Monday on objection by Senator
Smoot, republican. Utah. to its imme-
diate consideration.
No definite news concerning Jenk-
ms reached the state department to-
day. President Carranza has ordered
the authorities at Mexico City to make
every effort to bring about his release
and the Mexican foreign office has
assured the American embassy that
energetic action is being taken.
Reports reached the state DEPART
ment today that an oil camp at Tan
guiko, Mexico, had been robbed re-
Gently by 250 soldiers in Carranza
uniforms, The men were said TO have
been led by the colonel Of a regiment
of Mexican federal soldiers.
According to the report the payroll
for the workers at the camp had
been delivered by the soldiers in ac-
with an agreement with the Carranza
government that to prevent robberies
Of company paymasters by bandits,
the money be entrusted to federal
soldiers for transmission. Later the
soldiers were said to have raided the
camp, taking the payroll the personal
effects of the workmen, including
their clothes. and even equipment out
of the camp hospital.
Under the original arrangement
with the Carranza government, the
payrolls were to be delivered by the
oil companies to the federal authors
ties at Tacoma, but todays reports
said the Mexican general command
ing the Tampico district had officially
announced to the companies that he
was unable to deliver the payrolls in
the district south of Naranjos.

LIFT EMBARGO ON
WHEAT SHiI : SSVTS
At ONCE -BAGi:@ : !; :
Chairman of Grain CorporatioE
Says Ban Should Be An
nuIIedi Action Would Mean
Decline in u, S, Prices,

Washington, Oct 25.--While de-
Tending embargoes against wheat eI-
ports and imports, julius II. Barnes,
chairman of the United States grain
corporation, told the senate agricul-
ture committee today that the embar-
goes should be annulled as quickly as
possible. Action either by the presi-
dent or congress would be necessary,
he said,
Mr.. Barnes explained that the em-
bargoes have been ordered by Presi-
dent Wilson in an effort to hold down
the cost of food. 1t was agreed last
August to remove them, but this ac-
ton was rescinded, owing to the
acute agitation on the high cost of
living and the possibility of an ad-
vance in the cost of food If the en-
gargoes were lifted"
Mr. Barnes emphasized that the en-
bargoes were not his policy.
II have felt" he said, that this
government injection into business
should be stopped at the earliest possi-
BILE moment"
Shipping board rates on grain are
so much higher than those of foreign
SnlpS lndl pFdCllCdllS 10 BONt' illiSiit
vessels are used in the wheat trade,
Mr.. Barnes said. Some OF the govern
ment rates are four times British rates
he added.
American wheat is being exported
as rapidly as is desirable, Mr. Barnes
said, adding that without the govern
ment guarantee, much wheat would
sell at lower prices than now prevail
ing in this country.
Lifting of the embargoes, Mr..
Barnes said would result in a decline
instead of increase in American prices.
The government grain agency can
| not be ended without some distress
dislocation and profit and loss to
somebody" he declared. 1t should be
done as soon as possible. he added, but
in way to cause the least interruption
to production and marketing.

 Congress hearings have begun on tariff questions which should be set tied straightway. While the war was on hundreds of millions of American capital went into the manufa cture of dyestuffs because this country was destitute of them and could not ob- tain them in any other way. Hun dreds of millions likewise went into potash, nitrate, manganese and mag nestle products These at the time were war industries pure and simple Some of them were IS essential to our victory abroad and to our safety at home as shells from the munition plants and ships from the shipbuilding plants.
 But, with the war over. unlike shrapnel. bayonets and torpcdoes they still are indispcnsa ble to our na- tonal security and to our national welfare. Whether by war of arms or by war of trade or by whatever circumstance this nation of 100000 o00 people in forty eight State group ; ings, some of them bigger. richer and more populous than kingdoms and re- publics of the Old World, must never again be caught unprepared to supply itself out of it's vast resources with basic needs Of industries and basic reods of food a s impera lively required by our national life as the water we drink and the air we breathe

But we do expect action in times of national emergency, and immediate action. Profiteering has assumed the propor- tions of a national emergency and now is the time for Congress to take the packers to task. The packers are pre- sumably breaking antitrust laws. Combines are common in the realm of tho slaughtered COW, the railroad that hauls her and the gra in grower that feeds her. Let us look them over. Let Congress expose the pocketbook of the packer to the Ray of finance and determine what he deserves and what he is getting. If the two differ widely, there are mum erous methods of adjustment. If they do not, noth- ing has been lost. So, turn loose the silver-tongued orators of the people and allow them to enlarge their cere- bral capacities by a little juggling with figures; let them aid whom they are supposed to aid--the public. After the adjustment we will be pleased to have them resume the round of politics and discussion that their constituencies demand--but we want that adjustment.
