PEACERESOLUTION
MAY BE PASSED
DESPITE PROTEST

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Refusal
Of the senate, to sanction introduce
ton and passage of the Knox peace
resolution at this session of congress
has started an insurgent movement
which may result in presentation Of
the measure in spite of Lodges dis
approval.
Senators who deem immediate re-
turn to a peace status imperative are
exerting pressure on Senator Knox
to permit one of them to introduce
his resolution, which declares the
state of war between the United
States and Germany at an end. Sen
ator Knox has thus far declined be-
cause he does not wish to run coun-
ter to his floor leaders wishes. He
is strongly in favor of immediate
adoption of the resolution, however
Senator Lodge informed the insur-
gents that he does not intend to have
anything done with the measure this
session. They told. him there are
enough Democratic votes available
to pass the resolution over President
Wilson'S veto, but Senator Lodge said
his plan was to let the whole thing
go over until the special session
after President-elect Harding's inau-
guration.
The insistence of the insurgents
is based on a desire to get war laws
repealed. They want to get rid Of
the espionage act, particul arly, and
also the return of conditions that
would allow American business men
to trade unhampered anywhere they
can find customers with money to
pay for goods.
Senator Lodge was much interested
Thursday in reports that President
Wilson might resubmit the Versailles
treaty. Nothing will be done with
it, Senator Lodge made clear. If re-
submitted, it will be referred to the
foreign relations committee and left
there, Lodge indicated, in spite of
any efforts that may be made by Re-
publicans and Democrats to work out
a compromise.
The treaty with France, providing
triple alliance for the defense of
that nation by Great Britain and the
United States in case of another at
tack like Germany's, also will remain
Enacted on, Senator Lodge said.

"Dead' Negro Proves
To Be Verv Much Alive

The police Thursday were engaged
in search for a negro, believed to
be Bud" Brook, of 112 Larkin
street, who was shot and wounded by
Patrolman d. w. Ellis in the rail-
road yards near Peters street Wed
nesday night.
Patrolman Ellis chased the negro
after the latter is alleged to have
shot and wounded James Harper,
colored, of AZ Eads street, in a
pool room on Peters street. The po-
liceman shot at the negro several
times. The chase led to the rail-
road yards, where the negro fell, and
when the policeman reached him the
negro was bleeding from the mouth
and was apparently dead. In the
meantime Patrolman Ellis received
word that a fellow-officer had been
shot on Peters street and he went
back to the scene. Learning that it
was an erroneous report, he returned
to where he left the supposed dead
negro and found he had disappeared.

dense snoWstorm and bitterly cold
weather have interrupted commune
cations in the bleak windswept val
legs and mountains of Manchuria.
The Japanese operations against re-
voting Koreans in the Chentao and
Sunchun districts are practically
ended.
A brief summary of the results OBJ
tanned in the seven weeks campaign
by the Nineteenth Japanese division
was announced today. The figures
are:
Koreans killed. 375; Koreans ar
rested, III; Koreans voluntarily sur
rendered. 1858.
Japenese soldiers killed. IL;
wounded, 25; prisoners, none.
Korean buildings burned, homes Of
prominent rebels. 1913; military struc-
lures, 10; churches. 2; schools, 5.
Material captured, by the police,
military rifles and revolvers. 513;
machine guns, 3; rounds of ammun1-
ton, 42,420.
The report states that the two
churches were owned by religious
communities. but were used by NAL
that the five schools were used by
the rebels for the training of. anti

Washington, Nov. 22.-A nationwide survey to determine government expen- ditures for office rental in the larger citis in in progress by the treasury with view to laying plans for cutting down this outlay.
 Figures so far tabulated, according to officials, indicate a total rent bill of many millions a year. Reports from four of the largest cities alone show a tota. of more than 42,000,OO0 a year and at the survey includes about 15O cities o1 over 100,0 900 population officials eXpecter the other reports to be in proportion
 New York, with $1,596,726 a year, has S61 annually for additional office space. Chicago $173,604 and Philadelphia s1O3,- S62. When moge detailed figures are available officials' said, the facts will be set forth in a letter to congress.
 Steady growth in the field forces oi the public health service, the internal bureau income tax units. war risk insur- 1 ance and similar bran les of the pern- ment, it was explained, have rendered in adequate accommodations in federal | buildings in most larger cities In many of the government-owned of 1 fees, 1t was added, there was not now | sufficient space to safeguard the heaitf l of the workers. It was also said that 1 much time was lost where government agencies are in scattered, rented build | gins.
 l The remedy for the situation, official, l said, Twas to acquire sufficient space il l various cities to centralize government 1 offices.

SUBPOENA IS UPHELD IN
 "BUILDING TRUST" CASE

New York, Nov 22-The joint legis- lative committee Investigating the alleged building trust'' won the first court test of its powers here tonight when Supreme Court Justice Hotchkiss denied a motion to vacate service of subpoena for Miss Eliza beth O'Dea, an employe of the Builders Supply Bureau.
 Under Justice Hotchkiss' decision Miss O'Dea win be required to appear as a witness before the committee and bring with her books, papers and records of the. concerned, demanded by the subpoena.
 Application for an order vacating the subpoena was made on the ground that the committees action in calling an em- ploy and not an official of the firm to produce private accounts constituted seizure without warrant, that the com mittees power expired with the adjourn rnent of the legislature and that the fourth amendment to the constitution was violated.
 Justice Hotchkiss held that if Miss O'Dea is an employe and the records de- scribed are in the custory of the sec retary- treasurer of the company, he did not see what right the witness has to object that the subpoena constitutes an unreasonable search or seizure Of the books or papers of the builders supply bureau"
 If the witness has the custody of papers which she may have been lawfully subpoenaed to produce" the decision add ed, ''it is her duty to obey the subpoena and if the constitutional rights have been Invaded it is for her to appear and object at the proper time and place"
 with respect to the lawfulness of the committee itself and it's power to issue subpoenas," the decision said. either be- cause the resolutions was not signed by the governor or that the committee was not authoribzed to continue after the ad- journment of the legislature, am unable to agree with contention of witnesses s counsel I do not think that section of Article of the constitution has any application to joint resolution and this view has certainly been followed 1T practice"
 Justice Hotchkiss declared that "frou time immemoriaF' it has been the GUS . tom of legislative committees in this state to sit after formal adjournment O the legislature, even though the resolu tion under which the committees acted | may not have given them power to.
