SENATE MAY
PASS PEACE
RESOLUTION
Measure Goes Through in
House, 242 to l50-Win be
Brought Up Immediately in
Upper Chamber.
PRESIDENT MAY VETO
CBy Associated Press)


WASHINGTON, April 10.-With the
adoption by the house of the joint res
olution declaring the war with Ger
many at an end. the senate today
again became the battle ground for
peace" Both Republican and Demo
cratic leaders expected the measure
to be taken up there without great
delay, probably Monday.
Opposition to the resolution from
those who have fought so bitterly for
the adoption of the Versailles treaty
was assumed but opponents of the
treaty and the league of nations were
confident it's passage would be obtain
ed with considerably more than ma
jority, and that the affirmative vote
would include a fair percentage of
Democrats as was the case in the
house.
Vote is PAP to 15o
The resolution was adopted late yes
terday by the house, 242 to $50. Only
two Republicans joined the Democratic
forces, while % Democrats broke away
from the minority ranks.
An attempt earlier to have the reso-
luton recommitted to the committee
on foreign relations was decisively
| checked, 222 voting to keep the meas
ure in the form laid out by its sup
porters against I'll to recommit.
Much of the wartime legislation
would be wiped out by provisions of
the resolution, but the motion that it
be sent back to the committee pro-
| vided for its redrafting in such man
ner as to wipe out all the wartime
| measures and powers granted the
president.
Fight is Expected
| Immediate passage OF the resolu-
ton by the senate after it is called
up there was not looked for. 1t was
recognized that it's opponents would

parliamentary skill possible to block

their majority would be increased by

LITTLE STATE ROAD
WORK IN 1920, SAYS
DISTRICT DIRECTOR

Little work on the state highways
of this district will be undertaken this
year, other than regular maintenance
K. l.. Hanson, district supervisor Of
state highways told the Wayne county
commissioners Saturday.
Hanson is in charge Of the state
roads, which include the Liberty pike,
the National road, the Winchester
pike, and the Connersville pike, south
from Cambridge City.
Decrease in the road levy, made by
the state board of tax commissioners,
is the principal reason for cutting all
construction work in the state, Han
son declared.
The state board reduced our levy
from 10 cents to three and one-hali
cents for state roads, and with the
high cost of materials and labor, il
would be impossible to do any big con
struction work." Hanson declared.
Suffering Everywhere.
Road work in other states, is suf
fering with Indiana roads, Hanson
said. In Illinois, Ohio and Michigan
the road work has been reduced sc
percent for this season 1t is almost
impossible to get contractors to bid
on construction work, he informed the
commissioners.
Matters pertaining to road work ir
Wayne county, on the county high
ways discussed by the commissioners
Saturday. A delegation from Hagers
town appeared before the board in be
half of the improvement of the Hag
erstown pike.

EMBARCOES
FREIGHT TO EVERY
STRIkE-RIDDEN CITY

Shortage OF freight cars, and the
embargos declared at most of the
shipping points of the country. have
caused freight shipments out of Rich
mond via the Pennsylvania to be SER
iousiy affected. Embargoes are in
effect to every point of the scores tied
up by the strike of railroad switch
men.
The situation on the G. &, .. railroad
is somewhat better. The only c. &
o. embargo is to Chicago direct, and
car loads that are consigned to the
west and ordinarily pass through
Chicago, are being accepted.
The strike of railroad switchmen
throughout the country has affected
the volume of freight handled less
than 10 per cent. The embargo at
points where the c. & O. has to route
shipments over other lines, has affect
ed Richmond slightly however.
Switchmen Would Join.
Richmond switchmen will not ex-
press opinions as to what they think
of the situation at Chicago and other

Butterflies And Birds FIutter Across
 New Sunshades. This One Has
 Gorgeous Butterflies On A Stripe Of

 umbrellas. which looks just as well raised in broiling sun as it does in a pelting storm. These bright hued umbrellas have entirely changed the business of the umbrella depart ments. Says a saleswoman in one of these departments: "Women used to buy an umbrella as an unpleasant duty. She hated spending the money for such a prosaic object-but had to have one So she picked out the cheapest umbrella that her taste would stand for. Now she seems to feel: How much can I afford to spend for the prettiest rain or shine um- brella I can find?' She enjoys shop ping for the gay. attractive thing; and the saleswoman takes a good deal more pleasure in selling it. than she used to take in selling dreary black near-silk umbrellas"
 The smartest rain or shine umbrellas are extremely tailored in type. The ferrule end is very short and stnbby: the handle is short also and is tipped with leather strap to slip over the wrist. Deep purple, bright red and grass green are the favored colors These shades look cheerful on rainy day. and go well with tailored cos tunes of navy serge. with tan top- coats, and with sport togs.

The frock has sash of hemmed linen but long string of pink beads echoes the pink tone of the parasol; and when the sun shines through this delectable parasol it's pink tone will reflect also on milady's cheeks.
 Bright yellow and orange parasols are smart this year. They will not be apt to shed very becoming light on their possessors faces-one would say the effect would be unpleasantly like jaundice-but fashion fancies yellow sunshades so women will be sure to carry them. A great many orange parasols were noted at a smart out-of-town affair the other day. One parasol had alternate frills of orange taffeta and black lace, an- other was of orange taffeta with d lining of flame taffeta. Such vivid hued sunshades are usually selected to make a striking color note in some particular costume, and an orange parasol would not be an economical investment for the woman who must make one or two sunshades to see her through the season. The orange shade would soon become tiresome if one had to look at it every time one strolled out of doors. and unless the whole

Not all the originality goes into sill covers; handles of the new parasols have their share. Most of the handles are of brilliantly polished wood and there is usually a tip of colored pyroxylin, amber or real ivory. Some times a cabuchon of jade colored composition tips the handle, and the ferrule end is rarely forgotten; almost always it carries a small tip match ing the tip on the handle. A very ex- elusive parasol of marine blue silk with groups of tucks and narrow pleated ruff1e at the edge, has handle of blue polished wood tipped with genuine carved ivory. and the ribs have knobs of carved ivory.

No dainty dress-up costume looks just right above fiat-heeled boots. But for general walking. shopping and run-about wear the American woman is wearing low. broad heel: and the shoe dealers have changed their minds. Even with Louis heels the ef- rect is felt, say the shoe dealers. and the standard Louis heel is now two inches high where it used to be two and three-eighths inches. It has a broader base too. and is easier to walk and stand on. The "baby Louis" heel which was introduced last summer is not really a pretty heel and is not becoming to the foot. If one is going to wear French heels at all they might better be in full height.
 Spanish or military heels are seen on many of the new summer pumps and walking boots. and the smart but toned boots which are ultra correct with tailored costumes have military or French heels as the wearer pre- fers.

TITS though the parasol were not
 gay and coquettish enough
 thing in itself, Fashion has / U dressed it up this year in a sash adding considerable extra gaiety and coquetry. Not all the new parasols have sashes. but some of them have-the parasols intended for use with dainty, summery frocks away from city streets.
 There are not many plain, tailored looking parasols. this year. however. The tendency is toward trimmed eff fects and sometimes instead of sash, a sunshade has f1uttery frills, of hand embroideries. or even flowers made of kid and appliqued to the silk. Blue birds are a favorite parasol ornamen- tation and these charming symbols of happiness fit across many a summer parasol. Though the birds are always blue in color, their background may be any shade at all-white, or pale mauve, or corncolor or even deeper tone. Butterflies too fit across the summer parasols and some of them are gorgeous affairs embroidered with bright-hued silks and wools. A very handsome parasol of gray-green silk has butterflies done in iridescent beads and there is a bead fringe all around the edge.
 One of the parasols illustrated has embroidered wool butterflies. Their black. orange and copper wings har- monize with the background of orange silk and this strip is set be- tween strips of bisque silk. The par asol handle is of pale tan enameled wood with tip of carved amber. The sash-decorated parasol is all in one shade. rich blue, and the tas- sells match the shade of sash and parasol.
