RATIFICATION
LONG WAY OFF
Peace Treaty Back in the
Hands of Foreign Re-
lations Committee
WHEN 1T COMES
BACK TO SENATE
Republican Leaders Pre-
pared to Propose Modifica-
tons and to Discuss

Washington, D. c., Feb. lo.-The
peace treaty was back in the hands OF
the foreign relations committee to-day
and it probably will not be returned
to the Senate floor until next week.
The committee was expected to act
to-day on the instructions of the Sen
ate to report the treaty out with the
reservations drafted by the Republicans
at the last session of Congress. Sena-
tor Lodge of Massachusetts,, Republi-
can leader, plans, however, to defer
further Senate consideration of the
treaty to make way for preparations
and tariff legislation.
When the treaty comes back to the
Senate with the reservations, Republi-
can leaders, it is understood, are pre-
pared to propose notifications to the
reservations similar to those drawn up
at the recent bipartisan conference,
This would open discussion for compro-
mise, it is pointed out. although the
possibility of ratification is considered
by both sides long way off.

Come Out LOG to II Against
a Measure Providing Uni
versal Military Training
PAY NO HEED TO
PRESIDENTS APPEAL
Declare They Know Senti-
ment of Country Better
Than Party Leaders

Washington, Feb. l0.-Democrats OF
the House we're on record to-day as op-
posed to universal military training de-
spite an appeal from President Wilson
that they refrain from declaring them
selves on the issue until the Democratic
national convention in June.
The action was taken at the party
caucus last night when the house DEM
ocrats came out l06 to IL against any
measure providing for universal com
pulsory military service or training.
Earlier in the session the Democrats
fatty rejected the presidents appeal
by voting IS to 81 against a proposal
that action on the measure be deferred.
Explaining their action at the eau
Gus, several Democrats declared that
they felt they knew the sentiment of
the country on military training better
than either the president or their lead
ers.
Representative Caldwell, New York,
who led the fight in favor of the pres
ident's proposal, declared that unless
there is a change in sentiment on the
Democratic side Of the House, IT is ap-
parent there are not enough Republi-
cans who favor universal training to
include it in the army reorganization
bill.

ACID IN STOMACH
SOURS THE FOOD
Says Excess of Hydrochloric Acid II
Cause of Indigestion.

A we'll known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion are
nearly always due to acidity - acid
stomach--snd not, as most folks be-
lieve, from a lack of digestive juices
He states that an excess of hydrochlor-
ic acid in the stomach retards digestion
and starts food fermentation, then our
meals sour like garbage in can, form
ing acrid fluids and gases which initiate
the stomach like a toy balloon. We
then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in
the chest, we eructate sour food, belch
gas, or have heartburn, fatulenoe, wa
terbrash, or nausea.
He tells US TO lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar.
macy four ounces Of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in glass of wa
ter before breakfast while it is etfer-
yescing, and furthermore, TO continue
this for one week. While relief follows
the first dose, it is important TO neu-
tralize the aeidity, remove the gas
making mass, start the liver, stimulate
the kidneys and thus promote a free
flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia and sodium
phosphate. This harmless salts is used
by thousands of people for stomach
trouble with excellent results,-Adv,

BILLIONS FEET
OF PULP WOOD
In the Northlands of Alaska, If They
Can Only Be Thrown Open for
Public to Use.

Seattle. Feb. lO.--Alaska wants To
throw open her millions of acres OF
national forests so that the billions OF
feet of paper wood of the northland can
help relieve the pulp and newsprint
famine, Governor Thomas Riggs, jr., OF
Alaska, declared here recently.
Governor Riggs was here on his way
from Juneau capital of Alaska, to
Washington. d, C.. where he expected
to help press pending legislation in
tended to remove restrictions and allow
pulp manufacturers to go into the
Tongass and Chugach reservations, the
northern territory's two great reserves.
Pulp and paper men are anxious TO
go to Alaska and establish mills as
great as those operated in British Co
lumbia not far south OF the Alaskan
boundary line, the governor asserted.
Under the present laws the pulp max.
ers cannot enter the reservations with
any certainty that they will be allowed
to stay.
Alaskas great forests stretch over
approximately Df-bVb cihdit HAii'ns an
area nearly equal in size to the state Of
Indiana, according to estimates made
by government officials,
Several hundred million feet of good
pulp wood, including western yellow
pine, hemlock, Sitka spruce, white fir
and lodge pole pine, are on the forest
reserves alone.
The Tongass reserve, in southeastern
Alaska, is especially adapted to the
manufacture of pulp and paper, fores-
try officials have reported. There is
plenty of water power, ocean harbors
open the year around, timber skirting
the water and weather similar to that
of the Puget sound
The governor intends to ask Wash
inaton TO restore the reserves to the
national domain or TO open them to
the pulp industry

In Prospect as Two Big Leagues Meet

Chicago, Feb l0.-A continuation of
the American league factional fight
that might prove second in interest
only to the selection tomorrow of a
successor to August Hermann as chair
man of the national baseball commits
sion, was in prospect here to-day when
the American and National leagues
went into their annual sessions. The
meeting of the older organization was
expected to be short, as there was little
work to be accomplished aside from
adopting the schedule for the coming
season.
Three other leagues the American

of Chicago's biggest baseball meeting

man seemed to stand out as the likely
winner The election probably will be
held tomorrow after the joint major
