Washington Correspondent.
Washingt on. March 6.-Not since the
Peace Treaty was first submitted to the
Senate have conditions been so chaotic
Senator'S hesitate TO give any views
regarding the ultimate fate of the docn-
mcnt. They say it is utterly impossible
to give anything like reliable forecast
and they have quit predicting.
II have no idea what is to come of 1t,
said Senator Wolrott of Delaware. "sono
say ratification will be accomplished,
others that the position is hopeless.
have no grounds for Offering any prcdic-
tion. We must simply wait"
A week ago Senator Lodge and his
associates were Boosting loudly that they
would ratify the Treaty in their own way
and on their own terms. The action OF
some of the Democrats in accepting
some OF the Lodge reservations, not be-
cause they believed in them, but because
they wanted the Treaty out of the way,
encouraged the standpattcrs.
Now, however, the standpatters are
suffering through reflections from Their
own ranks, so the temporary advantage
gained by the acquisition Of Democratic
support Is lost by the dcsertion Of Repub-
beans. On the whole, the situation Is
exceedingly uncomfortable for Lodge and
his cohorts.
BALL STANDS nj LODGE.

England statesman Senator Ball IA not

idol through good OF evil report. Apparent
", there Is no move that the chairman
Of the foreign relations committee could
make which would not be acceptable
TO Senator Ball. Senator Lodge evidently
appreciates such loyalty and appears to
regret there are not more men like Ball
in the Senate.
In the meanwhile, Republicans are
hearing from the country. The farmers
are especially indignant at what they
regard as narrow policy which is inn
pairing international credit and making
impossible those relations absolutely essen

THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE
 PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-PAosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength, vigcr
 and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless prepara- tions and treatment which are eontin- ually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fieshy, develop ing arms. neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their ex. cessiye thinnAss.
 Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phos- phate, known among druggists as bitro- phosphate. which is inexpensive and is sold by most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phoSphoric food ele- ments. bitro-p phosphate should produce welcome transformation in the ap- pearance; the increase in weight fre- quently being astonishing.
 Increase in weight also carries with 1t a general improvement in the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accomp- any excessive thinness, should soon dis cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect CAUrTON:-W While Bitro- Phosphate is unsurpassed for the relief of ner- vousness, general debility etc, those taking it who do not desire to put on flesh should use extra care in avoiding fdt-pPoducin& foods.

Reconstruction was the underlying thought of the annual Chamber or Commerce banquet held at the Wau- reean hotel on Monday evening with nearly 25O of Norwichs business men nresent and speakers of marked eio- uuence carried out the idea in thelr addresses One important feature that t was brought forth at the meeting was that a certain business organization III Norwich stood ready to erect an uso 4,l : limited number of houses to relieve the housing situation here provided any other interest in the city would match the offer, This challenge was pre- sented by Shepherd B. Palmer, who outlined the plan. The banquet was one of the most successful of any in the history of the Chamber of Commerce and every one who attended the affair pronounced Il ms such. The big dining room of the hotel was prettiIy decorated and the 1 tables which were also handsomely decorated with fitted plants and cut flowers. Ernst had cS1rge of the decorations.

situation in this city and appointed a committee to see if anything could be done to. relieve it. This committee has requested me to make a few state ments tonight.
 The cause of the housing shortage is simple and universal throughout the country. There is a normal growth to the population of a community This means that new homes are required every year to take care of the new families. Up to the time of the war these requirements were taken care of by the normal and natural building of houses. The coming of the war caused rise in prices and slowing down of house building and when our country entered the war the scarcity of labor and material and the press of the war caused practically cessation of house building. But in spite of the casualties of war and the ravages nf the infiu- enza, our population continued to in- crease not only in our country but also in our city. The natural result of these conditions is a shortage of dwellings.

 personal knowledge I can state that during the past year not dollar has been lost by idle tenenents or by changing tenants, as a long waiting list of applicants is always On hand, and this condition exists with the Marlin Rockwell plant idle, for which factory these houses werf primarily built.
 One of the main functions of the Chamber of Commerce has been to To- cate new industries here. and now we are facing an entirely new situation of being in the position of having indus tries ready to come and our present industries ready to expand provided we could furnish suitable homes for the employees.
 Manufacturers have always disliked to be obliged to put the money legiti- mately needed for the expansion of their business into houses and believe if they come to city ana build and equip their factory the reorie of the city should furnish the homes for the operatives. On the other hand, with the present costs private capital is cautious about building, and that is the problem that confronts us. During fthe war the federal govern- ment formed the United States Hous- | ing corporation and some cities were fortunate enough to have the situation relieved to a certain extent by this | corporation.

Beauty destroying hairs are soon banished from the skin with the aid of delatone paste, made by mixing some water with a little plain powdered dela- tone. This is spread upon the hairy surface for or 3 minutes, then rubbed off and the skin washed to remove the remaining delatene. This simple treat. ment banishes every trace of hair and leaves the skin without a blemish. Caution should be used to be certain that 1t is delatone you buy.
