Hitchcock's Proposal to Throw Treaty

Little Favor.
Especial Despatch to the HerorA.,

WASHINGTON, d. c., ThurSday.-A
coalition of 'irreconcilables' and strong
reservationists Of both parties has been
formed to defeat the peace treaty in the
event any material change is made in the
Lodge reservations by the would-be COM
promsers. After careful canvass it was
announced today that the strength Of the
coalition is ample for the purpose.
Although the exact number Of votes
counted upon was not made public, 1t is
understood to be in the neighborhood Of
To defeat the treaty only
thirty-three votes are necessary. Thirty
three votes also can prevent the appli-
cation of the cloture rule, which has long
been recognized as an indispensable
means Of ratification.
Announcement of the results Of the can
vass today completed another cycle in
the chaotic treaty situation, and took it
back to where it started months ago. In
the minds of most Senators It made 1t
palmer than ever that the only hope of
ratification lies in the possibility of a
Democratic revolt against President Will
son and acceptance of the Lodge reser-
vations.
There were reports from reliable sources
that this possibility was becoming more
and more a probability, but it was pointed
out that rumors OF this sort have been
recurring from time to time, and have
always proved groundless.
The conciliation conference scheduled
for today was put off until tomorrow
because of illness in the family OF Senator
Lenroot. OF Wisconsin, one OF the con-
cilators. Senator'S have little hope OF

ference beyond tomorrow. In the language

OTHER WAGES EQUALlZED

Ten per cent wage increases to about

announced yesterday by Judge Elbert II.

Almost $4,000, 900 annually will be added to

The wage rates of day labor at the

other rates will be equitably adjusted.
The last sentence in this statement was
considered by Wall street experts to mean
that similar increases would be forth

the latest increase will raise il 20 about
$500 OCOO co. The December statement of un-
finished orders showed a marked increase
over the preceding month, giving every
indication that the business OF the COM
pany is on an upward trend. The latest
annual report of the corporation showed
an average daily wage of s623, excluding
the administrative and sales forces. The
average now becomes about sSs5, as COM
pared with s2.97 in 1914. an increase Of 15o

UNITARIAN DRIVE NETS
$575,0O0 IN TWO DAYS
Washington's Quota in So, OOO, 900
Fund Is $125, OOO-Leader Of
Movement in City.

The leader Of the Unitarian forward
movement in America, Ernest G.
Adams of Boston, will deliver an ad-
dress in behalf Of the movement this
morning at All Souls Church, which
is temporarily located in the Knick-
erbocker Theater.
A complimentary dinner was given
Mr.. Adams last night at the Cosmos
Club by Frederick A. Delano, chair
man of the Washington campaign
committee. Mr.. Adams stated that
the drive for 100000 already
totaled $575.000. which had been con-
tributed by thirty-seven churches in
the first two days of the campaign.
He further stated that 800 churches
were now organized for the cam
paign and that he felt sure that by
next week the full quota would be
reached.
Washington's quota is $125.ooo.
which Unitarians of this city have
pledged to raise for the national
campaign to further the interests Of
the movement, but it is understood
that this amount, with an additional
amount of $4,000. will be turned back
for the building fund of the new
Unitarian Church to be erected here
next year at 10th and Harvard streets.
Mr.. Adams stated that statistics
show that there are fully 100000
people in this country unafhliated
with any churches. The forward
movement will direct its efforts along
this line also, so as to add as many
Of these as possible to the Unitarian
rolls.

SCHOOLS TO TEST
TEACHING BY FILMS
Trial of Picture Theater as
Adjunct May Lead to
Adoption Here.

A unique experiment designed TO
test motion pictures as medium OF
educating Washington public school
children will soon be carried out by
officials. Such plan already has been
proposed, and tomorrow definite steps
to make it a reality will be taken by
authorities at the Franklin School.
1t is the intention of authorities to
accept the proffer of the loan of a
cinema theater near 14th street and
Park road. in which the experimental
moving picture school will be started.
Efforts now are being made to obtain
a number of educational films from a
producing firm in New York. AS soon
as the films arrive and the plans are
worked out for operating the school
1t will be opened.
One Hour at Theater.
One official pointed out last night
that the proposed picture play school
will be only for educational purposes
and not for amusement. Outlining
the tentative program of running it,
he said. a class of several hundred
children would be taken to the theater
for an hour a day for lessons in his
toricaI and geographical subjects.
A teacher. especially trained in lee
turing on the films. will be in charge
of the class. 1t will be her duty to
explain to her class a picture to be
projected on the screen. before and
after it is run off, calling the chill
dren's attention to certain features
she desires to have impressed on their
minds.
There is no doubt among school
authorities about the success of mo.
ton pictures houses as valuable
adjunct to the school system It is
felt that the proposed experiment will
have beneficial results, and that NOV
ing picture schools will be EXTEND
ed all over the city where cinema the
aters are located.
Difficulties in Schools.
A recent proposal to install motion
picture machines in all schools for
educational purposes. officials con-
tend, will not materialize, on ac-
count OF the enormous cost to the
system. They also are of the opin-
ION that many other handicaps will
preclude them from obtaining motion
picture apparatus for the schools.
among those mentioned are the fire
marshais restrictions. lack of facili-
tles IN the schools and the inability
TO get licensed operators.
Officials believe it will be more eco..
nomical and feasible to have moving
picture theater managers loan their
