Opposition to Treaty Causes
Him to Abandon Concil-

Rebuff Met; Senators Prepare

Barrage Soon.
(By United Press)

Washington, July 26.-Develop-
ments in the peace treaty fight today
indicated that President Wilson is
abandoning his concilliatory attitude
toward congress.
The resolution which Senator
Lodge introduced in the senate yest-
erday, asking President Wilson to
produce the Observation-Disclosures
defensive agreement, met with re-
buff in the White House, although
it has not yet been voted upon in the
senate. ".'~ Us
1t was stated at the White House
that the president would not take this
document to the capitol until he re-
turns from his speaking tour !
For a time it looked as if this
would be quietly permitted to drop.
but preparations are being made for
a start within a fortnight. Signi-
ficance was attached to the fact that
Senator Spencer, one of those called
at the White House today, was one
of the first senators to learn of
Taft's proposal for reservations to
the league of nations. 1t was con-
sidered that the president would dis
cuss Taft's proposals with him.

DECREASE IN MEXICAN METAL
PRICES MAY CLOSE MNES

Mexico Ciy, March Fearing
that the mining crisis now threten-
ing Mexico will result in the clos
ing of mines in various parts of the
country, and idleness for thousands of
miners, representatives of this trade
will meet soon in Mexico City to con-
slider remedies for presentation to the
government. The great decrease,
since the ending of the war, of the
prices obtained for metals mined in
Mexico, has it is claimed, made it
impossible for man companies in Mex
leo to operate at a profit and there
Is imminent danger that the work
ings will be closed until metal prices
rise.

LEMONS BRING OUT
THE HIDDEN BEAUTY
Make this lotion for very little
cost and just sec
for yourself.

What girl or woman hasn't heard of
lemon juice to remove complexion blem-
ishcs; to bleach the skin and to bring
out the roses, the freshness and the
hidden beauty: But lemon juice alone
is acid, therefore irritating, and should
be mixed with orchard white this way.
Strain through fine cloth the juice of
two fresh lemons into q bottle contain
ing about three ounces of orchard white,
then shake well and you have a whole
quarter pint of skin and complexion To-
ton at about the cost one usually pays
for a small jar Of ordinary cold cream.
Be sure to strain the lemon juice so no
pulp gets into the bottle, then this lotion
will remain pure and fresh for months.
When applied daily to the face, neck,
arms and hands it should help to bleach,
clear, smoother and bcautify the skin.
Any druggist will supply three ounces
of orchard white at very little cost and
the grocer bias the lemons.

The front spring is of the semi-elliptic

In addition to the powerful and effec-

system increases the factor of safety by
placing the truck under the immediate con-

Mr.. Daniels spoke from the stand
which is opposite Way No. %, from
which the third launching took place.
In introducing him Mr.. Brush paid a
tribute to the achievements of the g.
coo shipworkers at Hog Island, and
said by August forty-tve ships will
have been launched.

The Secretary Immediately launched
Into plea for greater American ship
building. He said the Panama Canal
was built to unite the two oceans and
bring the United States nearer to the
South American countries
But of what value is the Panama
Canal and the great waterways un-
less America builds ships to go
through the canal to carry our com
merce to the end of the world ?'
Mr.. Daniels asked.
His prediction that the Delaware
River will be the greatest shipbuild-
ing centre in the world brought a vol
ley of cheers.
"A few days ago with a company Of
naval experts we visited great ship

u. S. Must Put Money
Into Italy, Says Banker
Otherwise Germans Will Be
Able to Flood Market
With Their Goods

ROME, May 30-(By The Associated
Press ).-"The United States must nut
money into Italy, either by developing
uneXplolted resources, such as hydro
electric power plants, or by advancing
another loan," said George Page, an
American banker, recognized as one
of the most influential American fnan-
ciers in Italy, to-day.
"lf America wishes to compete with
other countries for the big Italian
trade, which amounts to $6OO,OOO 900
annually Mr.. Page added, "the rate
OF exchange on the American dollar
must decrease. as it tends to send
American prices sky-high.
twenty-five cents in German money
costs the Italians but IA cents, while
25 cents in American money costs
them as cents Obviously American
prices quoted in Italy must be three
times greater than those of Germany.
With their low rate of exchange the
Germans will be able to flood the Ital-
ian market with every kind of COM
modify, and thus win back their pre-
war commerce in Italy, which was
enormous.
~ have heard the Germans have
been manufacturing goods all through
the war for the purpose of concen-
trating and warehousing them and
then dumping them on the italian mar
ket at low prices. America needs to
do something to stabilize the Italian
market, so as to make it possible to
extend our commerce here and secure
immense markets for the commodities
which Italy offers"

some small dealers in exchange made
1t practice, until stopped, of going
to the postoffice and buying exchange
on Norway and Sweden at 26.9 cents
