cock today.

The President wrote that the
committee program would not pro-
vide for ratification "but rather for
notification of the treaty"
A conference was called to decide
upon the final administration tactics
in the fight for ratification which is
expected TO come to an end today or
tomorrow. After the letter was read
there were indications that unless Il
compromise could be effected the adj
ministlation Senators would line up
almost solidly against ratification.
The decision of the Democratic
friends of the treaty to vote against
the ratification resolution containing
the Lodge reservations was affirmed
at a Democratic conference. No COM
promise plan was drawn by the De-
mocrats. Immediately after the
Senate met Senator Lodge formally
presented a ratification resolution
containing the fifteen reservations adj
opted by majority of the Senate.
Republican Leader Lodge predicted
the senate would mot obey the or
ders" of the president with regard to
the treaty. "The Senate has equal
power and responsibility with the
the president in making treaties"
Lodge said "What he commands will
not in my judgment be done"

Who never to himself hath said,
"My trade Of late is getting bad,

If such there be go mark him well,
For him no bank account shall swell;

Unsought except by men he owes,

MAMMA SAYS
(Proper-Gander.)

If there is anything more exasper.
ating under the sun to poor over
worked teacher than to have one or
two children in the grade, whose
mothers have been criticising in the
presence of the child, the teachers
methods, we don't know what it is.
These poor little children come to
school day in and day out, with the
impression that their teacher is in
competent and ignorant, and partial
to every other child in the room. 1t
is very much like the poor mother
whose boy, Jim, being the only SOL
der in line out of step, thinks every
one else is out but Jim.
The greatest harm is done, how
ever, by the fact that the child, not
being fully expert in all studies him
self, frequently tells things alleged
to have been said by mamma, that
would embarrass mamma very much
if she could hear them as her pet tells
them.
The mother who has the best in
terest of both child and teacher at
heart will never say anything deroga-
tory to teachers ability in the
presence of her child, but will, as any
honest person would do, tell the
teacher in a nice way, if she has any
complaint to make about the teach
er's methods. If you don't feel free
to talk to the teacher, or feel that
you will not get respectful hearing
from her, talk to the superintendent.
He is a bullseye for public target
practice and doesn't mind direct hits
at all. It's the richochets striking
him from obscure angles that hurt.

GERMANS MUST
Be PUNISHED FOR
LUSITANIA CRIME
Investigation of U-BOat
AtrOcity Expected by
Allies
BERNSTORFF is GUILTY
His Offences Committed in America
Previous to Declaration of War
Make Him Liable
BERNSTORFF is GUILTY

Under the decision reached by the
peace conference at Paris to try the
fugitive Kaiser for supreme Of
fence against international morality
and the sanctity of treaties, and
other guilty "of criminal acts against
the nationals of one of the Allied and
Associated Powers" it is anticipat-
ed that the sinking Of the Lusitania
will be Investigated and responsibility
for this infamy fixed.
By the same decision five Germans
who were very much in the public
eye in the days preceding Americas
entrance into the war may be brought
to trial. The prevailing opinion in
Washington is that they will be SO
tried. m
These men are Count Johann Won
Bernstorff, formerly German ambas-
sador to the United States; DR.. Helm
rich Albert, German financial agent
in this country; DR.. Dernberg, for
merly German Minister of Colonies,
and Captains Boyed and Won Papen,
Naval and Military Attaches respect
lively at the German embassy.
The decision which hangs like a
blanket Indictment against the Ger
man offenders against the laws of civ
ilization is so broadly drawn that it
may cover any offence and any Of
fender. Even the diplomatic i'm
munity enjoyed by Ambassadors, it is
thought in Washington, will not serve
to protect Count Won Bernstorff, since
the offences charged against him
were abuses of his immunity. Under
article three this significant statement
is made:-"Persons guilty of Grim
inal acts against the nationals of one
of the allied and associated Powers
will be brought before the military
tribunal of that power"
While the language indicates dis
position to confine the investigation
to military offences, the offences
charged against the Germans headed
by Count Won Bernstorff in this coun-
try were of a military character.
The fact that the German govern
ment is to be compelled to give up
all papers bearing on the cases may
go far toward establishing well de-
veloped suspicion held in this country
relative to this group and also may
involve men in America who hereto
fore have gone free.

CAN ALLIES MAKE
HOLLAND GIVE UP
KAISER FOR TRIAL
The Dutch i'm London are of
the Opinion That She
Will Not
rs SPLITTING HAIRS
Holland Would be Glad to Let Will
liam Go but Regard Him as
Guilty of No Crime
S SPLITTING HAIRS

LONDON, May 6--The announce
ment that the former Kaiser and 9th
er men responsible to the laws of
civilized warfare will be brought to
trial has given rise to the question
here whether there might be any
possibility of Holland refusing to
give up the ex-Emperor.
Investigation shows clearly that
such a possibility eists. Dutch cir
clcs in London firmly expressed the
opinion that the extradition of the
former Kaiser is impossible. They
point out that the cxtradition laws
do not include political crimes.
1t is the legal opinion in the Meth
erlands that the Kaiser is not guilty
of any crimes definitely mentioned
in cxtradition treaties with Holland.
Moreover, they point out that if
crimes were committed, they certain
ly were committed in Germany.
Therefore that is the country whence
request for the extradition of the
late war lord must come. They ex-
press doubt whether it will be found
legal to claim that the Kaiser's
crimes were committed in France
and Belgium or on the high seas.
One well-infoImcd authority said
that Hollands attitude toward the
affair is that the Kaiser was not
guilty, but was the responsible party,
and that there lies a distinction
which the Allies, perhaps, have not
always made. 1t seems from what is
in cxtradition treaties with Holland,
that country will dispute any demand
for the former Kaiscr's cXtradition.
An Allied request for such action,
however, would be an entirely diff
ferent matter. Such a request would
be carefully considered by the Dutch
parliament. The success of such a
request would depend greatly upon
its tone and the degree to which it
conformed to diplomatic usage.
1t is apparent from the tone of the
American minority report that their
delegates believe the conviction OF
the Kaiser on legal grounds will be
impracticable.
From political viewpoint it is
possible. But politically it would
be virtually impossible it would
the former Kaiser's extradition,
Therefore it seems probable that the
extradition will be requested, not
demanded. There is possibility OF
such request being declined. There
is probability that a demand would
be refused.
One good authority in London ex-
pressed the candid opinion that the
Dutch would be glad to get William
H Hohenzollern off their hands, but
Dutch sources here point out that
the former Kaiser is regarded IL
Holland as a private gentleman,
guilty of no crime against the laws
of Holland, and paying his income
and other taxes, but he admitted:
"The former Kaiser is being care
fully watched to make sure that he
starts no political intrigues in ou1
country"
The final decision of the matter
rests with the present Dutch Gov
ernment, which declines to make any
statement on the matter before re-
ceiving request OF demand fol

NATION WILL CURB
BOLSHEVISTS AND
END THIS OUTRAGE
Representative MOndell to
Bead in Legislation to
u
q Reach Evil
BACK LAW AND ORDER
Bomb Makers, Bomb Senders, Advo-
Gates of Anarchy and Violence
Congress Will Punish

Congress is preparing to enact
drastic legislation to curb the acti-
vities of plotters against the gov
ernment OF the United States, against
perpetrators of outrages like the re-
cent New York bomb plot and an
archistic activities generally.
A promise to this effect was made
by Frank w. Mondell, representative
from Wyoming, who will be floor
leader Of the next republican House.
The Investigations which have been
in progress by the Senate committee
aim to bring about the same result.
Members of Congress anticipate a
decision in the struggle between law
and order and lawlessness in the cas-
es of Eugene V. Debs and of Thomas
J. Mooney, one now serving SEN
tence for violation of the Espionage
law and the other for completely in
the bomb outrage in connection with
the San Francisco Preparedness pa
rade.
The view voiced by Representative
Mondel is echoed in the press and
other avenues of expression through
out the country, demanding more
drastic action in the future.
In this connection the Department
of Justice is coming in for some crit
icism owing to the fact that it is
understood what the department
about a month ago called off activi-
ties against the reds in New York.
At the recent Governors. conference
attention was called to this act, and
it was said that owing to the inacti-
vity of the federal government it
would be necessary for the Governors
to act through State mediums to
reach the evil.
"If further legislation is neces-
sary," Representative Mondell said
"to punish bomb makers and bomb
senders and the preachers or any ad-
vocates of anarchy, Bolshevism and
violence, the new Congress can be
depended upon to provide it prompt
ly.
"My personal opinion is, however,
that the laws now on the statute
books are sufficient for the punish
ment of these malefactors.
"The greatest of all crimes in a
free country under a government for
and by the people, such as ours is, is
the preaching and practice of doc
