DON'T FORGET TO
TURN CLOCK AHEAD
ONE HOUR TONIGHT
Official Change in Time Goes
Into Effect at 2 Sunday
Morning Railroad Trains
Held-Schedule the Same.

Father Time, with his flowing beard
and his hour glass, will put on an
extra burst of speed at 2 o'clock Sun
day morning. He will keep up the
pace for approximately six months. The
railroad officials here have been so
advised. They say trains will be held
for one hour to make the, change and
then resume their schedules. In other
words, the schedules and the time set
for trains arriving and leaving at the
various stations will not change. al
though the time does.
Mr.. General Public, to keep step. has
only to follow the simple formula Of
pushing the hands of the clock one
hour forward when he goes to bed to-
night and thereby present himself with
one hour of daylight.
G. P. then has only to forget about
the violence done to the clock and get
up as usual Sunday morning and go to
church. He can slip off to his usual
game OF golf afterward and in golf that
extra hour of daylight will come in
handy.
Congress didn't pass the daylight
saving law for the benefit of golfers
alone, however, but for the honest
householder, who wants to beat the
high cost Of living by digging and hoe
ing in his victory garden.
The national war garden commission,
which fathered the daylight saving
plan, figures about 100000 people
will rush from the office and the shop
and dig in their gardens, and this, the
commission hopes, will help break all
records for food t. o. b. the kitchen.
The law will be in effect for 210
days. Two hundred and ten multiplied
by 100000 will give a staggering
number of hours to be devoted to food
production.
Outside the realm of figures the ex-
ira hour will do a number of things,
although Its effect will wear off In a
couple of days.
Convivial gentlemen planning to get
home at a. N. may find themselves
sneaking up the front steps as the
cuckoo shrieks thrice.

morning can comfortably reflect that
the milkman tonight will have to lose
an extra hour of sleep or run the
chance of being late at the watering

SMASHING BOOM FOR
MINING INDUSTRY
Idahoans Predict Impetus Will
Be Given It, as Never Before
Equaled-World Now Short
on Metals.

Idaho is going to experience the
this year. That Is the prediction of
men engaged in the industry who are
In a position to know. The reason they
assign for this smashing boom is the
undisputed fact that the world is short
on metals, and Idaho has vast store
houses of them.
The metal market was hit hard last
year. when the slump in prices came,
and some of the bigger properties were
forced to close down, especially in the
Coeur d'Alenes. Now, however, the
prospects of the best season in the
history of the industry make 1t certain.
gain to be given a chance to come back
stronger than ever before.
They point out that gold Is scarce
and in some countries has practically
gone out of circulation, leaving silver
almost as precious a metal as gold
from monetary standpaint. because of
the double standard. With regard to
the other metals as lead, zinc, copper,
ETC., there is less in the world than
there has been for many years.
Because of these conditions, mining
men of this state expect to see Idaho
carefully combed in the hunt for new
properties. and the development of
others. 1t is known to mineral experts
that Idaho has several undeveloped
Occur d'Alene sections which can fur
nish a large percentage of the metal to
meet the heavy demand.

THINK JAPAN DELAYING
PEACE PACT PROGRESS

Washington, March 29.-An impor-
tant diplomatic duel between the
United States and Japan at the peace
conference appears to be under way
behind a curtain Of secrecy and silence.
In the absence of much direct infor-
nation, it is believed here that Japan,
as recently forecast, Is holding her
race equality" club over the confer
ence and appears as the largest obsta-
Gle In the path Of quick determination
of the peace issues.
This is the only explanation avail
able here today for the failure to date
of President Wilson to press the
amendment to the league of nations
covenant insuring the preservation of
the Monroe doctrine. 1t was noted
that while he does not press this
amendment, Japan does not press her
race equality amendment. Also, Aus
tralia Is worried over the strange ST.
lence of the Japanese and is becoming
fearful lest special sanction of the
Monroe doctrine In the covenant will
result in Japan pressing for special in
terest and control in the orient, an at
titude recently advanced by Japan and
recognized to a degree by the United
States in the Lansing-I -Ishii agreement
10 months ago.
Meantime, the cables from Japan
tell of increased demands for racial
equality as league proviso or no
league.

FRENCH URGE LINE
Of DEFENSE FROM
ODESSA TO BALTIC
Favor Military Action to Hold
Red Sweep; Bolshevik Issue
Continues to Be Principal
Subject at Convention.
By FRED S. FERGUSON.

Paris, March 29.-The "big four" and
the foreign ministers in their present
conferences are covering the vast ter
ritory extending from the Rhine to the
Vistula and from the Adriatic to the
Baltic, 1t was learned today. In addi-
tion there is the ever-present question
Of repatriation.
The Bolsheviki, however, continue to
form the principal subject for informal
discussion among the delegates. A
military policy regarding the Bolshe-
Wiki apparently is taking more definite
form and the summoning Of General
Mangin to Paris is regarded as signifi-
cant in connection with plans advanced
by the French.
These plans anticipate establishment
Of firm line from the Black sea to the
Baltic to hold back the tide Of Bolshev-
ism. Whether such a plan will remain
defensive or would assume the often
sive as the best means of defense, nat
urally is problematical.
1t is now revealed that William Bull
lit, special Investigator for the Amer
lean delegation, saw Premier Lenine
while in Petrograd. When his report Is
made public it Is expected to reveal
much interesting information covering
points that hitherto have been hazy.

Official Reports Bear Out Rum

ness for Bolshevism; Spirit
of Leniency Has Developed.
BY WILLIAM PHILLIP SIMMS.

by WILLIAM PHILLIP SlMM
Paris, March 29.-Official reports are
bearing out recent unofficial dispatches
from Germany and Austria, indicating
those countries increasing ripeness for
Bolshevism, it was learned today. In
fact, these advices are understood TO
have impressed the peace delegates to
such an extent that there is pro-
nounced spirit of leniency toward Ger
many developing in unexpected quar-
ters.
For instance. the British viewpoint
on the questions of reparation and es-
tablishment of Polish corridor" from
the Pozen region to Danzig, solution of
which has been among the principal
stumbling blocks to speedy completion
of the peace treaty, has been consid-
erably modified.
The idea originally expressed by Pre-
mier Lloyd George for Germany to pay
all the costs of the war; also has been
abandoned as well as subsequent
claim for all damages resulting from
the war.
A high British authority today said
it would be unwise now to attempt TO
exact more from Germany than she
could conveniently pay within the next
20 or 30 years. An excessive bill, he
said, would simply fertilize the field al
ready sown to BolsheVism.

Still another Rumanian army is

the Ukrainian forces and cooper

A fourth Rumanian army Is re-

Bulgarians are mobilizing along

Ukrainians-have gone on a strike

Soviet government.
Ukrainians still hold Przemysl

Paris, March 29.-The peace con-
ference has begun to consider in
an informal way what shall be
done in the event Germany refuses
to sign the forthcoming treaty.
Should Germany thus turn out
law, 1t Is gathered from unofficial
conversations that the principles
laid down in the covenant Of the
league of nations will be brought
into play to force her into a second
unconditional surrender
Official information reaching the
allied governments tends more and
more to indicate that the Germans
are bent on wriggling out Of the
consequences of the war they
made. Enemy leaders are boldly
declaring they will sign no peace
that Is not wholly acceptable to
them, and at the same time are
threatening to plunge not only
their own nation but all of Europe
into anarchy.

Preliminary Battle Book e d
When Senate Organizes;
Foreign Relations Committee
to Be Used as Battle Field.

Washington, March 29-The first
skirmish in the league of nations bat
tie probably will be fought while the
next senate Is being organized, shortly
before the opening Of the coming eX-
ira session.
The senate foreign relations COM
mittee, the makeup of which will be
determined at that time, will be the
center of this preliminary encounter
possibly indicating which way the
sentiment in the senate is swaying.
After the peace treaty, with the
senate, under present rules of pro-
cedure it will be referred to the
foreign relations committee.
This committee may report 1t ia
vorably to the senate, it may report It
unfavorably, or report it without
recommendation or amendment
While the committee report in no
way will indicate the final senate ac-
ton, both friends and opponents of the
league are alive to the preliminary ad-
vantage of a committee report favor
ing their side.
For this reason, both sides are try
ing to organize the foreign relations
committee so that they will have the
majority on it.
SEEK TEN MEMBERS.
The first part Of the fight will come
in Republican caucus when an effort
will be made to fill the three or four
Republican vacancies on the commit
tee with league opponents.
The next part of the battle will be
between Republicans and Democrats
as to whether there would be nine Re-
publicans and eight Democrats or ten
Republicans and seven Democrats on
the committee.
If the Republicans have only a ma
jority of one, all of them would have
to vote against the league to get an
unfavorable report, IL all the Demo-
Gratis represented. This is unlikely
since Senator McCumber a Republi-
can committee member, is for the
league.
If the Republican majority were ten
to seven. however. they might take
adverse action without McCumbers
vote.
