 CONQUEST FAILS
Manifesto Says He Would Die to See Mexico Peace
 full and Prosperous
By Associated Press

Fl Paso, Tex, March 22.-Francisco Will las plans for the conquest of northern Mexico from the Carranza government apparently miscarried when Felipe An geles' staff officers were arrested here recently and Martin Lopez's ammunition smuggling band was defeated by the fed- erals near La Ascencion. This was in- dicated in copy of new Villa manifesto dated March l. issued at San Lorenzo, Chihuahua, and received here tonight,
 In the manifesto Villa calls upon all of his old generals to rejoin him and fight for what he terms liberty, berad and justice"
 He promised to restore the constitution of 1857, to reform the judiciary, establish universal suffrage and treat the enemy with consideration once they are con quered.
 T am willing to offer my life if neces- sary to see Mexico peaceful. happy and prosperous" Villa said in the manifesto.
 T regert the necessity for spiling Mex ican blood, but it must be done in order to overthrow Carranza, the usurper."
 Nine of the IS men recently arrested by United States army intelligence officers were held pending decision of the fed erai commissioner. All were charged with violating the federal neutrality laws by setting on foot military expedition te Mexico.

 For 15 years" he continued. "I suf-
 fered so terribly from stomach trouble
 that l thought I could never get we'll Everything l would eat went back on
 me and I would helch up my food so sour that 1t would nearly strangle me, the gas on my stomach would press on my heart so as to cause it to flutter. and I would have the hardest time get ting my breath. I was really in such awful condition that I felt like I had about got to the end of my row. But feel now like I am good for many years yet. for Tanlac has fixed me up so I can eat any and everything without any bad after effects, and since gas has stopped forming in my stomach I am not troubled with palpi. tations or shortness of breath. I have gained six pounds already and an working hard on my farm every day
 now and am glad to recommend Tanla, for the wonderful way 1t has hslpse me-"

By k,soelatsa Prsm

New York. March 22,--A suggestion that
 members of the National Security league
 and United States "Sneakret'' service
 agents be ducked in the Beast river was
 cbeered by nearly 5000 radicals who at
 tended an open air mass meeting here to-
 day to protest against imprisonment of
 Eugene V. Debbs and other radicals cons
 victed of violating the espionage act. The suggestion was made by Joseph Nj. Caldwell of Providence. R. l., who ex- plained that Russian revolutionists had
 ducked all military police, Caldwell ex- hibited a dietagraph with which he said government agents had obtained evil dence used to convict him of violating the espionage law. He explained his pres- ence at the meeting by saying he was out on s25,0Oo bail pending an appeal. Another salvo of cheers greeted Cold wells announcement that he had declared he wanted first, last and all the time to be known as a bolsheyist." Scott Nearing, socialist and former col Iege professor. who was acquitted here recently of charge of violating the es- piopage act. was given an ovation when he urged that all American workers unite in organization of tan industrial com monwealth."

"Fer that reasen," hs said, "bpildsrs who use structural steel will serve no useful purpose for their own interest and will hamper the restoration Of puer lie confidence in business, if they delay any longer putting under way steei construction that is now required.
 America is short of almost every kind of construction, and builders have held off because they hoped for lower wages and prices The prices that have now been fixed will continue Tn force for a long time, and no reduction in wages of any importance need be looked for.
 "Already there have been eneourag- ing indications of revival on the part of the steel industry even before the price scale was announced. Letters re- ceiyed by this service show that orders are. coming in to steel plants in grad ually increasing number, and some steel and iron plants already working full time contemplate extensions and the employment of larger forces. The stabilization of steel prices should re- suit in greatly increased volume oi business"

Mrs Wilson reappeared at the Blount county home. but her husband was in prison Governor Henderson granted parole ana pa rdon to Wilson, and Representative Adams, of Wilson's home county made a strong plea for compensation for Wli- son, His bill appropriated $25oo to Wll- son, this being considered tame way of expressing to Wilson the regrets or the state for the humiliation ana nara work while he was in prison.

 measures being intended for national
 safety, should be iiberally construed
 to carry out the purposes intended to
 be accomplished. The joint resolution
 was amply sufficient and comprehen-
 sive to authorize the President to pre-

 expected that revenues would be de-
 rived from the use by the public as therefore, and that if under rates then existing the revenues were found in- adequate it was within the province or the President to increase them
 l If, as counsel of the state admit the public might be excluded from the use of the telephones entirely, certainly 1t would be within the power Of the Presi- dent to prescribe the terms upon which the public might be permitted to use them, It was urged by counsel for the state that this power and authority, having been confded to the President, and involving as it does the exercise of judgment and discretion, he could not delegate 1t to the Postmaster General or anyone else. I do not think that tenable. The management and control of the telephone systems, including the | fixing of rates are administrative in character, and may we'll be performed | by the Postmaster General
 "The duties of the President of the United States, particularly in time of war are, as we'll as all well know, too numerous and varying to suppose for ! a moment that they must be personally performed.

SENATORS DISCUSS
 PLAN OF PROCEDURE
 REGARDING TREATY
Point Out That Amendments May Be Adopted by Ma jority Vote, Giving Op-
 ponents Advantage
By Associated Press

Washington, March 22--Reports from
 Paris of plans to entwine the constitu'
 tion of the league of nations inextrica-
 bly in the peace treaty developed dis
 cussion today among senators still in
 Washington of questions of Senate pro- cedure not hitherto emphasized.
 Although a two-thirds vote of the Senate is required for ratification Of treaties, senators pointed out that un-
 der the rule amendments may be adopt
 ed by majority vote, Senator Borah of Idaho, republican, critic of the league plan, declared this would give opponents of the league q distinct ad- vantage as 1t would enable bare majority to revise the league constitu- ton or separate it from the peace treaty.
 Other Senators said the majority rule might well become an important asset of senators supporting the league, The latter believe a considerable majority of the Senate's memb rrship fayors league of some description, although they estimate more than a majority op- pose the existing draft.
 Senator Poindextef of Washington, republican. in formal statement to- night said the "effects to coerce the United States into an acceptance of the league of nations by weaving the plan into the peace treaty. would fall.
 He said sufficient number of senators to insure defeat of the league already was on record against it and added that public sentiment In this country Is over- whelmingly against ii.
 Consideration of the peace treaty is expected by senators to be among the f1rst questions to be taken up after the new Senate Is organized. It probably will be given exclusive attention while 1 the House IS busy with remaining ap' propriation bills. A preliminary con troversy Is promised over the demand
