G. O. P. Leaders.
OFFERED IN THE SENATE
Republicans Seeking Ratifica-
tion Hope Democrats VIII
Accept Proposal.
(6Y ]. BART cAMPeELL.)

Washington, Feb. i'll. N. ST.
A new compromise on the disputed
Lodge reservation to Article X of the
league of nations covenant was
agreed to this afternoon by repub-
lican leaders seeking ratification OF
the peace treaty.
Framed by the republican mild
reservationists" the new proposal
embodying modification OF the
Lodge reservation will be offered
when the senate takes up the treaty
again on Monday, 1t was announced.
Hope For Acceptance.
Republican leaders expressed The
hope that the proposal would prove
acceptable to the democratic side
and would pave the way to breaking
the deadlock on Article X.
The text of the compromise reser-
walton, which is TO be offered as
substitute for the original Lodge one,
is as follows:
THE United States assumes no OBJ
legation to preserve, by the use OF its
military or naval forces, its re-
sources, or by the economic boycott
the territorial integrity or political
independence of any other country,
or to interfere in controversies be-
tween nations, whether members of
the league or not, under the provi-
sons of Article X, or to employ the
military or naval forces of the
United States under any article OF
tho treaty for any purpose, unless in
any particular case the congress,
a, 81. faaKft tsraa
the sole power TO declare war. shall
by act or joint resolution, SO pro-
vide."
Lodge Promises Support.
Senator Lodge was understood : tc
have assured tho mild reservations
lists" he would give his support "a
the new proposal.
In view Of the objection ex-
pressed by tho president to the en-.
ployment Of the language "thc
United states assumes no obliga-
tion" in the original Lodge provision
and in Senator Titchocks substitute
for It, the recurrence of the same
language In the new resolution did
not escape the attention of the re-
publican ''irroconcilahles" opposed
to ratification. They expressed doubt
| II the new proposal would be ac-
ceptable TO the president II adopted.
The mild reservationlsts" repliad
they were going to take the presi-
dent at his word" and seek an agree
ment with tho democratic side on
the basis Of their new proposal
They predicted an understanding
by which tho siNty-four votes es-
sential 10 ratification would be mus
tered eventually and declared that
they were confident the president
would not stand IN the way of ratif-
cation once two-thirds OF the senate
reached an agreement on reserva'
tiona

PALMER AND HINES MEET
Attorney General Sees Simi
larity in Situation to That
of Recent Coal Strike.

Washington, Feb. 11.-Direc-
tor General Hines conferred with
Atty Gen. Palmer today on the
threatened railroad strike situa-
tion.
Mr. Palmer refused to discuss
the conference further than TO
say that he had been made ac-
quaInted with the problems faced
by the director general. He de,
MED that the department of ius-
ttce was contemplating action,
declaring that any such state
ments were unwarrsnted at this
time.
MIR. Palmer would not say, how.
ever, that the department would MOI
eventually take a hand in the con.
troversy. where, when or how" its
action might be taken was a matter
fol the future to determine, said he
Atty.-Gen. Palmer this afternoon
stated that he had gone over the en-
tire situation with Director General
Hines. He refused to say what steps
he would pursue in the event of a
strike, but declared the situation was
in many respects analogous to the
coal strike" He declared, however
that he was very confident there
would be no strike.
The attorney general did not dis
cuss the possibility that the govern
ment might resort to Injunction pro-
SeedingS to stay the threatened
strikes of trainmen anG maintenance
of way employees, as it did in the
case of the bituminous coal mine
strike.

Palmer Confident There Will Be No Strike
PRESIDENT INcENsED

Washington, Feb. l1.-Presi-
dent Wilson is deeply incensed
over the publishing of the dag
nosis of his case, 1t was learned
from his intimate friends to-
day.
Friends OF the president de-
clared that the publishing Of
the diagnosis is bound to leave
a doubt in the minds of the
pubic as to the presidents fu-
ture capabilities, which is en-
tirely unfounded. and 1t is un-
derstood that this is the view
the president takes himself, At
no time since his illness has
the president been incapaci-
tated and his friends fear that
the action taken by DR.. Young
may arouse new rumors which
are baseless.
The diagnosis was published
without the consent OF the
president, which action, friends
of the president said, borders
on the unethical. 1t is known
that DR.. Grayson has kept a
complete history of the presi-
dents case, but II has been
withheld because the president
did not desire to have his all
ments laid before the public.

q SUFFRAGE BILL
YET in BALANCE
Only Heroic Intervention of
Big Parties May Prevent
Defeat.

Washington, Feb. 11.-(A. P.)-The
federal suffrage amendment giving
women the right to vote in national
elections is trembling in the balance,
needing for ratification purposes
seven more states put OF total or
ten yet to be heard from--and many
of these doubtful--it is beginning to
look as though only the heroic inter-
vention of one or both of the big par
ties can save the measure from de-
feat insofar as the 1920 presidential
election is concerned.
This Intervention, it is believed
here, may ultimately come about, for
with womans suffrage generally con-
sidered eventually inevitable and
with some sixteen million votes de-
pendent thereon, male politicians
here are prepared to resort to dras-
tic measures to prevent their partic-
ular party from having to bear the
blame of defeating the movement.
Today Idaho will cast her vote for
or against Htional woman suffrage.
Tomorrow {rizona's legislature, in
special session. will do likewise. On
Monday New Mexico will follow suit,
And though none of these states is
considered certainty the national
woman's party here is hopeful. Okla
homa will vote next, Gov. Robertson,
of that state having been urged to
call special session of the legisla-
ture for Feb. 23 AS Oklahoma has
already adopted woman suffrage, it
is believed 1t will ratify the federal
amendment
MaTylands legislature. ii is an
nounced, is in regular session this
month and is expected to ratify, but
as to the remaining states, Connecti-
cut Vermont, Delaware, West Vir-
ginia and Washingt on, the future is
very hazy.
In some ~ these states The gov
ernors are opposed to the amendment
and refuse to call the special session
necessary TO pass upon it.

SCHOOL BOYS
DRINK LIQUOR
Next, Grand Jury Will Cues
ton Them, Says Gen.
ChamIee.
0FFENS SlVE AT DANCES
Conduct of Males of Younger
Set Will Be Investigated
by Inquisitorial Body.

A number of schoolhoys and some
young men of the city have been no.
tilted to appear before the Hamilton
county grand jury, when 1t reassem-
bles on March l, to testify about in
cidents happening at dances at the
Hotel Patten, Signal Mountain hotel
Golf and Country club and at one OF
two university affairs.
While the inquistorial body was
in session n few days ago this mat
ter was brought to It's attention and
several youths were questioned. No
action was taken then, but business
promises to pick up at the next ses-
sion of the jury.
Atty Gen. George w. Chamlee has
discovered IA new law that applies to
persons attending dances while under
the influence of liquor and creating
disorder.
The report is current that certain
young men make n practice of at
tending dances and becoming intoXi-
Gated or getting under the influence
of liquor to such an extent as to
make themselves offensive to ladies
especially,
Three Questions.
The young men called on to appear
before the grand jury will be asked
it has become known, to tell about
three items, to wit; Selling, drink
ing, transporting and giving away
liquor; second, playing on punch
boards, throwing dice; third, visiting
poolrooms, betting on billiard games
and being inmates of a poolroom
without written orders from their
parents while being under II years
old.
According to the attorney general,
this will give a number of young
sters plenty of things to dream about,
and will be n warning to the boot
logger who furnishes the liquor, the
gambler who furnishes the punch
board, and the owner of the pool
room who permits minors to visit and
loiter i'm and around the poolrooms
The section Of the law mentioned
reads as follows (Code 3047):
"A right of action is hereby
given to any keeper of any hotel,
inn, theater or public house, com
mon carrier and restaurant,
against any person guilty of tur-
balent or rlotous conduct within
or about the same, and any per-
son found guilty OF so doing may
be indicted and fined not less
than one hundred dollars ($100)
and the offenders shall be liable
to forfeiture OF five hundred
dollars ($500) and tho owner or
persons SO offended against may
sue IN his own name for tho
same"
Atty Gen. Chamlee said: Young
men who escort young ladies to ho-
tells and public gatherings and think
that it is smart to get drunk would
do well to read this law a second
time and heed its advice and warn
ing"
Poolrooms Too.
The poolroom law, It was stated,
is too familiar to need being re-
printed, as is the law against gam
ing devices, such as gambling on
punchboards.
"Chattanooga's good name has suf-
fored in the past by young men be-
ing permitted to get drunk and then
get by with it," stated Gen. Cham
lee, "but this grand jury has author
ity to call every boy in the county
to tell what the facts are" IT is un-
dcrstood that boys from all the big
schools are to be called on March 1
TO tell what they know about these
recent occurrences.
