A resolution to permit the House

was offered by Senator Curtis of
Kansas, but consideration was pre-
vented by objection from Ashurst of
Arizona.
The statement was made on the
House floor that Senate leaders de-

that in event the treaty is rejected
Congress can pass a concurrent or
joint resolution declaring the war at
an end.
Ashurst Denounces Acts.
Senator Ashurst (Dem.) of Arizona
denounced the reservations adopted
today.
They eviscerate the treaty. they
interrupt its circulation, paralyze its
respiratory organs, lop off its limbs
and thus the treaty is rendered a use

In no useful capacity whatever" he
declared.
Il suppose the treaty wreckers in
the Senate will now be delighted to
see President Wilson go, hat in hand,
to Germany asking her TO sign a new
treaty"

FROM WAR TO PEACE
IN MOTOR INDUSTRY
Automobile Trade Did More Than
Its Bit to Help Win War.
Fleet Of American Trucks Coming In
to Use for Additional Transporta-
tIon Facilities Needs Services
Of Released Soldiers.

As a single industry the automobile
trade did more than it's bit to help win
the var Not only did manufacturers
come up to specifications in quantity
and quality of delivery, but they built
better than 1t was thought they knew
how. Proof of this was given the 9TH
er day when, at an auction of old army
cars in France, the French and the
English bid higher prices for the cars
than they cost the American govern
ment new. An army of men was en-
ployed to run these trucks and cars
on the firing line. They gained more
experience in a month Of that sort of
work than they could have gained in
a lifetime of peace work.
The rolling stock will be left abroad
but the men are coming back. They
are being released daily from the mill
tary service, and are returning In large
numbers to civilian life. There Is no
lack of work for them to do. For the
fleet of American trucks now coming
into use for additional transportation
facilities all yer the country needs just
such - who have learned how
to act in any emergency, who feel al
most Immediately the id~iosyncrasles of
every motor, who have acquired an eff
cheney under shell fire that will make
them leaders in their work in peace
times.
Col. Arthur Woods, assistant to the
secretary of war, who is in charge of
the unemployment work for e~x-service
men, that a number OF such
men, are now available for private en-
ploy. The automobile industry Will
not lose this opportunity of obtaining
men who, to their pre-war ability, have
added the exceptional training and ex-
perience of months on the firing line.
These men will be in demand, and can
be obtained through governmental and
welfare employment agencies, who will
put them in touch with employers who
need their services.

fuel consumption was less for the we'll
known reason that any pneumatic-tired
vehicle requires less power.
"Another factor that was much in
favor Of the pneumatics was the alb
sence Of injury to loads of fragile ma
terials. Perishable goods suffer less
in a pneumatic-tired truck than they
do in a solid-tired vehicle, even though
the latter go at half the speed.
Lighting was another problem.
"First we had kerosene lamps and
then came the carbide tank.
with some reason there was OBJ
lection to this on the ground that 1t
was dangerous.
"a lot of people had to be convinced
that If the car got into a smashup the
gas tank would not explode.
at sounds ridiculous at this late
date, but it is a fact, that although
every motorist wanted to get away
from the drudgery and the danger of
cranking his car there was a tremen-
dous opposition to every form of self
starter.
"We expected and were prepared for
a battle when we decided that the
right thing for a light, high-speed
truck was pneumatic tires, but we have
always believed it was our duty to give
the buyer the best our experience die
tated and so we went through with 1t.
Everyone now admits the pneu-
matic-tired truck is inevitable, because
1t is the solution of most of the truck
ing problems, so we feel well repaid
for our missionary work."

CLEARANCE FOR INLET VALVE
Do Not Run as Hot as Exhaust Valve
and Consequently Do Not
Expand as Much.

Inlet valves do not run as hot as
exhaust valves and consequently do
not expand rs much. For this reason
less clearance is allowed between the
stems and pushrods of mechanically
operated inlet valves than Is allowed

Contrary to the general %supposition,
1t is more dangerous to be in advance
of, than behind, the procession in the
matter of introducing improvements
in a motor car" said f. n. Akers,
sales manager of an eastern motor
car concern.
81 am reminded of this by the fact
that just at this time all manufacture
ers are either eQuipping motor trucks
with pneumatic tires or making 1t
optional with the buyer.
after the most exhaustive compar-
alive tests with several trucks of the
same model, some equipped with
pneumatics and others with solid tires,
our engineers found that from Every
standpoint the pneumatic-tired truck
was infinitely superior.
"First-It was more efficient for the
reason that 1t would travel at nearly
twice the speed and thereby make
twice as many trips in a given time.
Upkeep Cost Less.
"Second-The upkeep cost was al
most unbelievably less, due to the
fact hat not only did we obtain more
mileage on a set of pneumatics than
on solids, but that the air cushion eff
fects a wonderful saving on the
chassis.
mot only that, but after 1000 or
5000 miles the resiliency in the rub
Der has been exhausted or, as the mo-

officials of the state department at
Washington admit that the president
has agreed with the allies on n plan
to give support to Kolchak and Deni-
kline in their fight against the boIshe-
wiki. The United States is to supply
the former with the things he needs,
and Great Britain and France will
take care of the latter. Presumably
his arrangement means that the
American troops now in Siberia will
not be brought back for some time.
Both these Russian leaders have been
scoring considerable success against
the bolsheviki lately, and 1t may be
the recognition of the Omsk govern
ment by the allied powers will not be
much longer delayed.
The bolshevist government. while
willing to make peace with the Bal
tic states, is laying its plans to conquer
the rest of its foes. Trotzky. speak
ing recently in Petrograd, said his ar
niles would continue their methods of
beating their enemy singly, taking Kol-
chalk first and then Deniklne. "If Fin

of their strength. The mild reserva-

found to avoid the direct issue.
The French chamber of deputies,
in which the government was pressing
for ratification of h treaty, was much
exercised by the hostile attitude of
the American senate and the govern
ment was called on for explanations.
Tardieu said he was satisfied the SEN
ate would ratify the treaty, and Pichon
said even without the United States
the League of Nations could exist, le-
gally speaking. Barthou replied that
France wanted political, not legal
guarantees. Premier Clemenceau then
said:
SHOULD the United States reject
the League of Nations. two treaties of
alliance between France and Great
Britain and France and the United
States exist. Nevertheless it was pre-
cisely because we felt that the League
OF Nations was an insufficient guaran-
tee for some years to come tina these

Other British geological gardens, at Manches- ter, Dublin and Clifton, are likewise depleted and anxious for whatever new stock can be obtained. The celebrated geological gardens at Antwerp, Brus- sels, Ghent and Liege in Belgium are practically empty, the animals having been taken away to Germany or killed The Dutch gardens at Amsterdam, the Hague and Rotterdam are very much reduced. Austrian zoos are in the worst plight of all and so far nothing is known of how it fares with the great zoos at Petrograd and Moscow.
 A large market is also seen in Amer ica, and the construction of new zoos notably the one at Denver, which pro- poses to rival the Hamburg zoo, is ex- pected to increase the demand for Af- rican and tropical life.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub sttute for calomel--are mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calornel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injrre the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
