REPORTS ANOTHER RESOLUTION.

The Republicans of the Senate
don't seem to like the House peace
resolution forced through about
two weeks ago as q .makcshift or
sort Of apology for the defeat of the
peace treaty. On the 30th a joint
resolution prepared by Senator
Knox as substitute for The House
resolution was reported TO the SEN
ate by the Foreign Relations Com
mittcc. This substitute proposes to
repeal the resolution of Congress
of April 1917, declaring IA state of
war with Germany. Mr.. Knox gave
notice that he would open debate
on the resolution on the 9Th.
Their expectation and, we be-
lievc, their hope is that the Presi-
dent will veto the resolution. The
Introduction of the resolution and
aim 10 get it through Congress is
a bit of sharp practical political
trick-by which the Republican
leaders hope to put the President
and his party, should the resolution
be vetoed. in a hole, all Of which
Will enable them 10 claim before
the people, in the coming cam
paiBn. that the President by refus-
ing to approve it. is responsible for
the continuance Of state of war.
It's but the trick Of willy politicians
playing a desperate game for party
advantages but it's too rotten thin
to deceive anybody but an idiot.
Leaders of both parties predict
several weeks of discussion with
little prospect Of action until near
the time set for a recess for the
national conventions. In some
quarters the opinion was expressed
that the President, in the midst of
The debate, might return the treaty
OF Versailles TO The Senate.
Virtually solid Democratic oppo-
sltion to the substitute was predict
Ell by leaders Of the party.
We can see nothing in either the
House resolution or the Senate sub
stitutc but an effort of Republican
leaders to throw dust in the eyes of
the people.

Mr.. Senator Sutherland has actu-
allyally bounded into the ring as
a candidate for the Republican nom
ination for President What does
it mean? Surely he must have sencc
enough to see that he has no chance.
We conclude that he jumps in for
some ultcrior purpose--possibIy as
a so-called "favoritc son" TO save the
vote of the State for some candi-
date favored by the Mighty Grand
Lamas of the &. o. p. when needed,

SENATOR THOMAS TO TAXPAYERS.

Speaking in the Senate a few days
ago Senator Thomas. Democrat OF
Colorado, said he intended to adj
dress himself briefly 10 the taXpay-
crS of the United States.
\ Senate engaged in voting hun
drcdS of millions i'll appropriation
bills paused long enough to remcn-
Der that there is class known as
taNpayers-jusl plain ultimate con-
SumcrS. The Senator Thomas com
mrnted-nOt briefly. but TO the cX-
tent of several thousand words
concerning chronic abscntccism in
the Senate, an orgy of spending,
! The consideration of great appro-
priaiIon measures with less than Il
score Of Senator's present, the fire.
| qucnt inability to get Il quorum. and
The imperative need that taxpayers
wake up and inquire where all the
money is coming from and where ii
is going.
Senator Thomas said that al
most every class is organized en-
cept the taxpayers. Leagues, legis-
laiivc committees. lobbyists and
Treasury raiders, he @ontinued are
represented in Washington, but the
taxpayer stays at home and awaits
the collector.
Regarding chronic abscniccisn,
Senator Thomas complaint recalls
that recently the Senate MAS having
difficulty in assembling a quorum.
Call bells were runs and a few alb
scnleeS, but not enough struggled in.
In an undcrtonc Vicc-presidcnt
Marshall said to the roll clerk:
Call the roll Of Presidential can
didatcs."
The Senator presented Il some
what alarming survey of the finan-
cial prcdicamcnt of the Govern
:ncnt.
Pending bills for increases in
pension, soldier bonus legislation,
civil service retirement and the run
ming expenses of the executive de-
partmcnts, Senator Thomas showed,
make ii difficult to estimate now
how far behind the country will be
in its finances next year. A modest
estimate, he said, is that we face
the approach of the next fiscal year
with deficiency Of 2,500,O00,OOO
The explanation of what Sena-
Tor Thomas said is now going on
in Washington is that it's all a party
game TO catch with public money
for the Republican party, The vote
of the beneilciaries of proposed ap-
preparations This should have been
a Congress of great accomplish
ncnts in the way of postwar re-
constructive legislation greatly need
ed III the way of general readiust-
ment. What has Congress done to
make good what the party leaders
boosted it would do? Echo an

a Johnson bolt if the Convention

 Changes

New York, February 25.-The first annual meeting of the intercollegiate football rules committee to be held in several years has been called for this city, Friday, March 12. During the war period there were no formal meetings of the committee various interpreta- tions of the rules being considered at informal conferences or by correspond ence.

These suggestions include a rule to have the goal kick following a touchdown made from scrimmage forma ton; narrowing the width of the goal; numbering of play CTS and several other revisions which would change the present form of play.

.COM|SKEy |S TIRED
 OF BEING ''EASY'
White SOX Owner to Use Iron Hand Methods
 From Now On

Owner Comiskey of the White Sox is through pampering his ball players and he doesn't care who knows it. In the future he is going to use more iron hand methods in ruling the Windy CS,y American Leaguers, and any til>s any of the crew registers dislike he can turn i'll lis tools and go back to the farm or to the factory. Comiskey seems to have tired of being a good fellow. and those who claim to be in on the know" say "Chick" Gandils attitude this seas:se is more largely responsible for the new at titude than any other one thing.
 Gandil has kicked over the traces. lie returned his contract unsigned and ac- companied by threat to quit baseball rather than play for the same stipend he received in 1919. GandiPs demand angered the "Old Roman who promptly an- rounced he was through being a good scout" and in the future would handle his ball players as they would be hanG.d in any other business.
 There is no secret to the statement that Comsley has been bothered greatly since the worlds series by the rumors that the members of the Sox laid down in the classic with the Reds. Not only did he offer $10,000 reward for information as to which players were involved in the al- legged scandal. but he also questioned a number of the Sox, and his questions were of the direct-from- -the-shoulder kind
 The fact that Comskey offered several of his supposed stars in trades during the Chicago meeting was also taken to iI.iti- cate that he did not feel as kindly So- ward his crew as formerly Comiskey has always permitted the brotherhood spirit to guide him largely in the matter of dealing with his players, and his com plete change of front this year has caused scme of baseball's leading officials to wonder whether or not the Sox boss is finding it difficult to rid his mind of the alleged taint in connection with the ast worlds series.
 Another significant fact in connecfT with Comiskey's operations cnis year is | tkat Gleason has apparently been left out ! in the cold When asked at the Chicago meet if there was possibility of the Sos landing an eastern pitcher by trade, Glea- son declared he did not know what Co miskey's plans were

New Canning Methods
 To Make Olives Safe
By Associated Press

Washington. February 25.-Ripe olives which have caused many deaths recently from poisoning, may be eaten with im- punity withi ma few months as a result of changes being made in preserving methods, Dr. Carl Alsberg, chief of the bureau of chemistry of the department of agriculture. stated today.
 Canning methods are being revolution iaed,'' he said, The packers are CO., operating with our bureau and institu- tuting changes in methods which will re- move all dangers of poison from next seasons crop.'
 Ore of the principal packing changes, Dr. Alsterg said, is abandonment of glas containers, which prevent proper sterilization.
 All cases of ripe olive poisoning have originated from olives packed in glass, he added, and none have resulted from olives packed in tin cans, nor from pickled green olives.
