The news that the platform com

ing a candidate, which he hoped
would be met and defeated" but he
added that II the reports on the plat
form decision reaching him were cor
rect, it would not be necessary to take
his league fight to the convention
floor.
Shortly before noon the work Of
the subcommittee was completed and
members said they thought there
would be no barrier TO a prompt &C
ceptance OF its platform draft by the
full resolutions committee.
The tentative foreign relations
plank under consideration in the sub
committee provided in part:
We approve the action OF the Re
publican senate with respect 10 the
proposed treaty OF peace with the
covenant Of the league Of nations.
We declare our opposition 10 the
treaty and the league Of nations as
submitted by the president and ap-
prove the action OF the Republican
senate in resisting ratification with
out safeguarding reservations.
I'VE favor the ratification OF the
treaty OF peace with the league Of
nations with reservations which are
in accord with the American princi-
pies which protect the liberty and in
dependence Of the people OF the
United States and which in no case
shall be less effective in these re-
spects than the reservations proposed
and adopted by the Republicans Of the
senate"
Those portions OF the tentative
plank relating to the peace resolu-
ton, Mexico and Armenia. are here
presented.
Peace Resolution.
I'VE approve the action Of the Re
publican party in congress in passing
a resolution to repeal the declaration
Of a state Of war with Germany which
would have brought peace and re-
lieved the people OF the burden OF the
war measures and we condemn the
presidents veto Of this resolution"

generally and admitted by the Trib-

Watched Fight Closely.
From the beginning OF the league
Of nations fight, Mr. Root has been
in close touch with developments,
first in the senate and then in the
convention parleys- When he left this
country some time ago il was re-
marked by many Of the party chiefs
that his customary counsel would be
greatly missed at the convention. but
it is understood that several days ago
his friends got into Ommunication
with him by cable on the subject Of
the league
It is understood for. er senator
Crane. a leader OF the mild reserva-
tion group, first suggested a compro-
mise on the Root plank, after he had
been in cable consultation with its
author.
Discountfng the possibilities Of a
blowup in the fuIl resolutions commit
tee or on the convention floor, those
on both sides of the treaty fight as
serted that in their opinion another
great party crisis, which had threat
ened for a time a repetition OF the
disastrous division OF 1912, had been
avoided

refusing the PRESIDENTS request TO en-
power him TO accept mandate Tor
Armenia The acceptance Of such
mandate would throw the United
States into the very maelstrom OF
European Quarrels- According to the
estimate Of the Harbord commission
organized by authority OF president
Wilson, we would be called on TO send
5000 American boys TO police Ar
menia and TO eIpend S216.000.0OO in
the first year and s756.000,00o in five
years This estimate is made on the
basis that we would have only rowing
bands to fight. but in case OF serious
trouble with the Turks or with RUS
sia, a force exceeding 100000 would
be necessary.

UNCLE SAM TO LOSE EVEN
YAP

It had been proclaimed that
the United States was to get
nothing out Of the World WAL
except it's casualty list, a huge
debt and added obligations. Then
someone pointed out that this
was not true, since, under the
peace terms, we were going to
have the island Of zap, in the
Pacific, as a cable station, nav
al base and cross-Pacific step
pingstone as it were.
But now it looks as if we were
not even going to be permitted
to keep zap. Somebody else
wants it. Guess who, Yes, ia
pan. And Of course if Japan
wants it she must have it. Sh.
wanted Shantung, and she got
it. So if that huge slice Of China
with nearly 100000 people
was awarded to Japan, why yaf
over the measly little islet OF
zap which has only handful!
Of inhabitants
The affair shapes up in this
wise. The peace treaty gives
Japan mandate over all tho
ex-4erman territory in the Paci
fic world north Of the equator
while the British get all to the
south Of that famous imaginary

Motor Transport, Officer Asks for Entertainment
 Restraint at Stops

Only towns and cities at which the Motor Transport Corps convoy spends the night will be allowed to extend hospitalities to the enlisted personnel, according to a letter from Gen. Charles B. Drake, commander of the Motor Transport Corps, to headquarters of the Bankhead National Highway Asso- citation.
 General Drake's letter was in re- sponse to one sent him recently, in which it was pointed out. that many towns and cities along the Bankhead highway were planning brief enter tainments, luncheons, etc, for the con voy when it reached them. General Drake, in his letter, said:
 You are advised that the serving of refreshments or any other extensions of hospitality by towns and villages en route cannot be accepted, except at those stations where the convoy will stop for the night. Two reasons are involved in making this decision First the delay that would necessarily be entailed, and secondly, the continu- ous dealing out of refreshments over an extended period of three months would tend to have an effect upon the health of the personnel.
 We fully appreciate the kindly spirit evidenced by these towns ana villages, but we are sure that you can let them know in diplomatic way why we cannot accept this hospi- tality.'
 Secretary of War Newton D. Baker will be In Washington June IA to at- tend the ceremonies incident to the de- parture of the convoy, according to letter received here by J. A. Rountree

TROY

Troy, June 5.-(SpeciaL)-The Pika county health department held its first adenoid and tonsil clinic at the Shiloh Consolidated School this week. This has been planned and worked on for the last three weeks. Each child in the school had been personally exam ined by Dr. T. F. Wickliffe of tha health department and where an op- eration was necessary the parents had been notified. A field worker had then secured the consent of the parents for an operation. pr. Gillis Sanders, who has specialized on diseases of the eye, ear, nose and throat, willingly do- mated one or two days of his time to this work. So the schoolhouse was fitted up as a hospital and made sani- tary in every way. Miss George Tay- lor assistant director of the bureau of public health nursing for the state, offered her services free of charge and, as Miss Mae Harper, all-time health nurse of the county, was present, two nurses were provided.
 Ten children were operated on We'd nesday and were under the care of physicians and nurses for two days. until all danger was past. All stood the operation well and this clinic prom ises to do much good for the health of the children in that section.

 Miss Mary Dean, formerly of the city school faculty and who taught in Elba the past winter, has returned to Troy and taken up the work of county home demonstrator for this county. Miss Dean has had experience in this line of work, having taught home eco monies at the state normal school here. and will no doubt be very successful in this line of work.
 Some interesting facts in regard to the Troy State Normal School are given out by Dr. E. M. Shackelford president of the school He compared the first year to the present year, the thirdty-third year of the school In the first year the faculty was com posed of six mem bers, there were 126 pupils, one building and an appropra- tion of s3,O0O. In the thirty third year there are twenty members of the faculty. 56S pupils, four buildings and an Appropriation ot s25,ooo, which will automatically increase to $40,000 at an early date.
 The amount of money handled through the school this year was ap- proximately s75,00o, not including the large amount spent by the students here.
 In thirty-three years, or third of a century, there have graduated at the school, or college, as it was until recently, 712 persons, 4S9 women and 223 men. The smallest number of diplomas issued in any year was one and the largest number seventy-two. which were issued this year. In this time there have been thirtyone deaths among the graduates, seventeen men and fourteen women.
 The counties showing the highest enrolment this year, outside of Pike county, are: Dale 4S, Coffee 42, Bar bour 31 Bullock 26, Crenshaw 25, Ge- neva 25, Henry 25. Butler 19, Coving- ton IS, Elmore IS, Conecuh IT, Hous- ton IT, Monroe IS, Montgomery 12, At lanta, Ga, l.
 Dr. Shackelford is of the opinion that the past year has been the most successful the normal has yet experi- enced and that prospects are very bright for next year.
