Little Progress Made
In Negotiations Over
New Pact Reservation

Washington, Feb. l3.-Little pro-
gress was apparent T thursday in ne
gotlations over the new article ~
reservation to the peace treaty
brought forward Wednesday by re-
publican senator's.
= In addition to its failure to COM
mand the democratic support for
which its sponsors had hoped, it was
said the new draft had been found
unacceptable to some reservationists
on the republican side who threaten
to join the irreconcilablc opponents
OF ratification if the notifications
proposed were made in the original
republican reservation.
A canvass of the 40 republicans is
understood to have shown that only
about 80 could be counted on to vote
for ratification with the changed res
ervation under (which the United
States would decline to guarantee
the integrity OF league members by
iorce, economic boycott or any
other means except when congress
acted. SiXty-four votes are neces-
sary to ratify, and doubt was e&-
pressed generally whether 81 demo-
Gratis could be induced to desert their
party leader, Senator Hitchcock of
Nebraska, who has declared the re-
vised draft would embody a sur
render of the treaty'S friends.

Cooperative Banking
For Farmer Labor
Element Is Urged

Chicago. Feb. l5.-Co-opera-
tive banking to keep the money
OF the farmers and working men
within their own ranks was one
OF the wants which most OF the
speakers voiced before the
American Farmer-Labor con-
gress.
Chains of cooperative stores
with a highly systematized meth
cd OF operation were advocated
by Duncan Mcdonald, president
OF the Illinois Federation of La
Dor.
These stores, he argued. could
have the benefit OF central buy
ing aud general supervision,
The whole fabric OF business
should be made proof against
dishonesty by the bonding of
the store managers, he said.
O. c. Trask said the mainte-
nance of way employees and rail-
road shop workers have FIVE fac
tories turning out products for
them at less than wholesale
prices. Cooperative buying. he
said. gave members of this union
a 80 to 40 per cent reduction on
their products.
I'VE turn out good sox for Is
cents a pair in our hosiery fac
tory" he said. Gloves. under

Union Orders Walkout Next
Monday Unless Employees
Grant Demands.

Union machinsts Of the city last
night voted to strike for an increase
in wages to IS cents an hour, ac-
cording to their business secretary,

said
There are about 200 members in

The Paxton-Mitchell company and
the Baker Ice Machine company,
two Of the larger shops, employ
union labor entirely.
Demands for an increase from 10
to IS cents all hour were made by
union machinists several days ago.
Employers offered to compromise
with a raise to 80 cents, but mem
bers of the union declared that 81
cents an hour would iret meet the
increased cost of living.
Commenting on the decision OF the
union to strike, Mr.. Lamb declared

None Wish War Less Than
"Doughboy" Who Has Gone
Through Battle, Declares
Army Chief.

Phoenix, Ariz., Feb. 12.-(Spe-
cial)-General Pershing's addresses
during his recent tour through the
west and south have clearly defined
his attitude on military training as
one entirely opposed to all militar-
ism.
In recent address here, Per
shing said; Il would not preach to
YOU militarisln. No man who has had
experience in war wants to see it
repeated. but no one can tell when
war is to come upon u.s."
He further said: 1T seems to me
that we should at least give our
young men the benefit of four to six
months intensive training, as this
will not only prepare them in a
way to enter upon military duties,
without too much delay, but will inn
prove their ability to meet the or
dinary conditions of life; their vital
ity is strengthened; their muscles
are hardened; they learn something
OF discipline; they learn how to take
care of themselves under various
circumstances; and, more than any
thing else, they have impressed upon
their minds that service to ones
country is the first thought every
citizen should have.

to have another war or not, and even

seems to me, the manly bearing, the
sturdiness, the development of char
acter in the 100000 men who have
returned to citizenship and are eager
and willing and quite qualified to
perform he duties that now devolve
upon them as citizens. 1t seems to
me that is proof enough. if any
proof were needed.

"TOO UNCERTAIN"

Edison, "Sir Oliver Lodge bases his
contentious regarding psychic COM

uncertain"
As to communication with Mars,
Mr.. Edison said:
Existing machinery is sufficient
ly strong to send signal to Mars.
The question is, have the beings
there receiving apparatus delicate
enough to get our signals"
When the inventor was asked II
any of the inventions he was work
ing on at present was OF a charac-
ter likely to cause a scientific SEN
sation, he said:
"Yes, I think I've got one of that
kind. It's a big thing" He re-
fused, however, to discuss its ma
ture. He also declined to discuss

IN an address delivered before the

I'VE got away with this job this
time he said but we may be UP
against it next time with navy
that is not busy fighting the navies
of other countries at the same time"
The admiral declared that any
criticism he had ever made had been
made for the benefit of the navy,
hut that Americans do not like to be
criticised.
Does Not Want Criticism.
America cannot and does not ask
Tor criticism" he declared. You
know that They argue: We're all
right and we're not We don't
want to hear it. This is asdangerous
attitude and has cost us thousands
of lives. Assumption has been made
that | have criticised the record OF
the navy. | have gone beyond the
limit in praising the men for their
work. | have told the truth-somc
ci this was not liked"
The admiral said he wrote from
England with an idea of "toning,
down" some OF the news. Il wanted to
iaodify. he said, some of the head
lines that were appearing in our pa
pers and were being reprinted on the
other side. These headlines, or
articles, assumed that the United
States was the potent factor at that
time. We then had only 3 per cent
OF the fighting forces. 1t was the
same response, We're all right and
we're not" 1--WE don't want to
hear it,
Nothing to 1t.
The admiral said it had been in
ferred that home naval officers had
criticised the idea of having civilian
authorities in charge of naval mat
ters.
81 want to state emphatically," he
commented, "that there is nothing
to it."
Referring to the charges brought
against him of being pro- British, he
said that any man who lived in
foreign country for the purpose OF
studying conditions was bound to be
called pro this or pro that"
Look at Hoover" he added HE
