AMERICANS NOT IN
 FAVOR OF A TRIAL
DELEGATES DO NOT AGREE WITH OTHERS THAT ALLIES
 SHOULD PUNISH EX-KAiSER.

Par1s. - The American delegates have been unable to agree to certain portions of the report adopted by the majority of the Commission on Re sponsibility for the war. As pre- sented to the Council of Four. the report contains a memorandum set ting forth the American reservations.
 The Americans object to the prin- ciple that persons accused of offenses against "the laws of humanity" should be subjected to criminal pros ecution. They say that the laws and principles of humanity constitute a standard too uncertain to be rightly applied in legal proceedings.
 The principles that heads of states should be liable to criminal prescott tion for brooches of positive law is another point in which they fail to agree with the majority. The Ameri- cans express the belief that the es- sence of sovereignty lies in the fact that head of a state Is responsible for his illegal acts to the people from whom he derives his authority and not to any foreign country. It is not contended that this principle applies to head of a state who has abdicat- ed, for any proceedings against such a person would be against an 1ndi- vidual no longer embodying the sov ereignty of a state. Nor does the principle apply to political offenses committed by the head of a state which may, if deemed eXpedient, be made the subject of judicial action and punishment.
 Holding these views, the American delegates were unable to concur in the recommendation for the estab- lishment of a high tribunal and prosecuting commission for the trial of criminal cases, as advocated by the committee.

LEAGUE IF NATIONS
 A PART OF TREATY
PEACE CONFERENCE ON MOTION OF PRESIDENT WILSON ADOPTS
 COVENANT OF NATIONS.
ENGLIsHMAN NAMED OFFICER
Sir James Eric Drummond Noninat- ed By President as Secretary Gen. eral of New Body-ltaly Not
 Represented at Meeting.

Paris. - The covenant of the League of Nations in revised form on motion of President Wilson, was adopted by the peace conference in plenary session without d dissenting vote. The presidents motion named Sir James Erie Drummond as secre- tary general of the league and pro- vided for a committee to inaugurate the league.
 Sir (James) Eric Drummond has been private secretary to A. J. Bal four, the British foreign secretary, since 1916. Previously he had served Sir Edward (now viseount) Grey in the same capacity, while Sir Edward was foreign secretary From March, 1912, to June 15, 1915, he was private secretary to Herbert H. Asquith, then the British premier.
 Thus one of the notable works of the conference passes it's final stage and is incorporated in the peace treaty.
 The French and Japanese amend ments, after a brief discussion, were not pressed and the way was thus cleared for unanimous acceptance of the league.
 Italy was not represented, but the name of Italy appears as one of the members of the league in the covenant as adopted Nine labor principles were adopted for insertion in the treaty.
 The session adjourned without con- sidering the report on responsibilities providing for the trial of the former German emperor by five judges from the great powers. This report was handed in by the Council of Four and embodies in the peace treaty provision for the former emperor's prosecution.

Auto-intoxication can be best ascribed to our own neglect or carelessness. When the organs fail in the discharge of their duties, the putrefactive germs set in and generate toxins-actual poisons, which fill ones own body.
 Sleepiness after meals, flushing of the face, extreme lassitude, bil- iousness, dizziness, sick headache, acidity of the stomach, heartburn, offensive breath, anemia, loss of weight and muscular power, de- crease of vitality or lowering of resistance to infectious diseases, disturbance of the eye, dyspepsia, indigestion, gastritis, many forms of catarrh, asthma, ear affections and allied ailments result from auto-intoxication orself-poisoning.

explained the plan of the proposed

Schnacke on the question should Ger
many Be Admitted to the League ?"
He handled the subject ably, taking
the position that altho Germany has
sinned greatly, if the whole world is
to be Christianized and made safe for
democracy it would be unwise to deny
to Germany membership, in the league.
SHOULD the United States Become a
Member of the League?" was the
next topic. the affirmative being taken
by Prof. a. J. Harno and the negative
by c. p. Buck
The general discussion following was
led by C. J. Evans, who was followed
by several others in short talks.
The meeting closed with a most in
teresting talk by Doctor Sheldon, de-
scriptive of his participation in the
convention held in st. Louis last week.

PUT STOMACH

CONDITION
Says Indigestion Results from
an Excess of HydrOchlOric
Acid.

Undigested food delayed in the
lLtomach decays, or rather, ferments
the same as food left in the open air,
says a noted authority. He also tells
us that Indigestion is caused by Hy-
per-acidity, meaning, there is an eX-
cess of hydrochloric acid in the stom-
ach which prevents complete diges-
ton and starts food fermentation.
Thus everything eaten sours in the
stomach much like garbage sours in a
can, forming acrid fluids and gases
which initiate the stomach like toy
balloon. Then we feel heavy, lumpy
misery in the chest, we belch up gas,
we eructate sour food or have heart
burn, flatulence, water-prash or nau-
sen.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
tal:e a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast and drink
while il IS effervescing and further
more, to continue this for a week.

HOLD A BOY AND GIRL
Youth Claims He Rented Room for
Girl Because She Couldn't Get Home.

Authorities today are investigating
the case of Myron McAdams, 10 years
old. and Florence Martin, 16, who
were picked up by the police about l
O'Clock this morning when McAda ms
took the girl to room above the
Busy Bee lunch room. Ala Kansas
avenue. A patrolman picked the boy
up as he was leaving the place on the
suspicion that he was going to return
and the girl was arrested later.
The stories told by both parties
seem to harmonize to large extent
They had been to a party in North
Topeka, they said, and left too late to
catch an Oakland car, which would
take the girl to the home of her aunt
Mrs. d. E. Ryan, on route "a. There
fore. they said, ii was decided to get
the girl a room uptown. She had no
money and McAdams is said to have
borrowed SO cents, rented the room
and took the girl to it. Both denied
that it was planned that he should
return.
McAdams lives at 313 Davies street.
Mrs. Delnora McGrath, police matron,
called up Mrs. Ryan, who stated that
the girl was away from home a great
deal and that she was unable to con-
troll her. Her parents are dead, it
was said. When questioned as to why
she did not remain at the home of
her friend in North Topeka, when she
discovered she could not get car,
she replied that her friends house was
fun and they had no room for her.
