has conferred with Secretary OF State
Colby who, 1t is understood, outlined
the presidents views
A vote on the resolution declaring
Republican and Democratic leaders
today agreed.
Plans were completed to call up the
resolution at II q. m. tomorrow.
Same Effect as Ratification.
1.-THE effect of this resolution on all
the war legislation will be precisely
the effect that the ratification and
proclamation of the treaty would
have had. Laws that were to be in
force for the period of the war would
have ceased with the presidents
proclamation; under this resolution
they cease with the date of its pas
sage. On the other hand, laws that
were to continue in effect for a time
after the ratification MISREPRESENTATION
OF the treaty of peace will continue in
effect for the specified time after the
passage of this resolution The res0-
luton, therefore, has no effect upon
existing laws other than the effect that
the ratification and proclamation of
the treaty of peace would have had.
section three provides for the re-
SUMPTION or reciprocal trade relations
between Germany and the United
States for period of forty-five days
and further provides that such recip-
rocal trade relations shall be perma-
nently established when the president
mas ascertained and announced that
Germany has declared the termination
of the war and has made the re-
nouncements on behalf of itself and
it's nationals which are specified in
said section.
Can Resume Trade
The placing of these conditions on
the permanent resumption of trade
with Germany is a reasonable exer-
else of the power vested in congress
by the constitution TO regulate com

Section 4 provides a penalty for
violation of section 5, whenever the
prohibition provided by that section
shall be in force.

Under the rule which will govern
consideration of the resolution, no
appointments may be offered, altho
Substitute proposals may be consid-

necessary because of the 'technicaT'
character of the resolution, a minor
change in which might alter its

BIG BATTLE STARTS FRIDAY

Washington, April Belief that
Germany will not accept the peace
resolution of Republican house lead
ers and will thus make it ineffective
in restoring normal trade relations,
was expressed today by Representa-
tive Flood, Virginia, ranking Demo-
crat on the foreign affairs committee.
Submitting a minority report for the
house Democrats against the resolu-
ton, which is to be called up tomor-
row, Flood attacked it on the follow
ing grounds:
That it will cause the United States to
lose its hold on the 500 900. 600 worth of
German property seized during the war
and will make the ships taken subject 20
libel in neutral ports.
That it is unconstitutional because it as
sumes the treaty making power of the
president.
That it will cause serious difficulties
in the collection from Germany of the cost
Of maintaining the American forces as part
of the army of occupation unless Germany
readily accepts the resolution. This cost
is estimated at $100,000000
States Wilson's Grounds.
Importance was attached to Flood
report because it is believed he has
stated the grounds upon which Presi-
dent Wilson will veto the peace reso-
tuition. if it is submitted to him. Flood

CentenarianS.

SO far rs we know, most centennri-
ans do not live lives in very marked
contrast to those around them. Some
of them set store by certain simple
habits, others drink or smoke or do
both, but always IN moderation and
true temperance; eat cooked or un-
cooked food rs occasion or desire may
determine and at last drop from the
tree Of life like an apple fully ripe,
and mankind notes their fall and goes
on like them, each In his own way.
Occasionally. one of them, like the
celebrated Parr, achieves fame for
something that he has done besides
living to an exceptionally old age.
Parr lived in the reign Of ten English
kings and queens and died untimcly at
the age of one hundred and fifty-two
from slight change in his habits and
environment, leaving as his chief
achievement the record Of his years,
which has not been surpassed in mod.
ern times.
