HOUSE PEACE GETS
ia TO 155; HOUSE
VOTES IN A TEST
Number Favoring Decision is 81
" Short of Enough to Override
Wilson'S Veto.
, DEMOCRATS BACK 1T

Washington, April 9.-After adopt
ing. by a vote of pa to l55, the rule
limiting debate on the joint resolution
TO declare war with Germany at an end ,
the House Yesterday began consideration
of the plan TO force technical peace
through Congressional action, step
without precedent in American history,
The rule was adopted by n division
along party lines. Only seven Demo-
Gratis supported il, and one Republican.
one Prohibitionist and one Independent
opposed it.
On this vote, which Democratic leaders
said reflected the views of their col
leagues on the resolution itself, thirty
two votes less than the necessar ry two
thirds TO pass resolution over the
President's s veto were obtained. The de-
bate will be continued tomorrow, and
the vote on the resolution will be taken
at p. N. !,
The scenes that have attended the
prolonged struggle over the treaty In
the Senate were transferred to the House.
The galleries were filed with diplomats,
adherents of peace, and others who gather
upon such occasions.
The speeches for the most part at
tackled or defended the constitutionality
OF the resolution. The Democrats IN
sisted that the move was entirely pollti-
cal. aimed to embarrass the President,
and would be ineffective, because with
out constitutional authority. Those be
hind the resolution that argued the COM
trv wanted peace, that seventeen months
had passed since the armistice was signed
and that with the cessation of hostilities
there had been drift toward peace which
justified Congress in declaring that
status Of peace existed.
While only seven Democrats deserted
the administration In the vote on the
rule, it is expected that about fifteen
will cast their votes for the resolution
m the final roll call tomorrow on the
resolution. The seven were: Caldwell,
Ginley and Goldfogle of New York;
Evans. Nevada; Gallivan and Olney of
Massachusetts, and Sherwood of Ohio.

Michigan, Ncbraska, Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio. And he has lost Michigan.
There is where his real fight is.
These States have an electoral vote OF
lS2, eighteen times that Of South Dakota.
At 5000 vote, they will cost 5000, 900
TO campaign.
But any ten votes in any one Of them
is something like ten times as important
to the general as South Dakota's ten votes.
VIII not this consideration affect the
cost2
Taking South Dakota as the basis,
allowing something for overhead and
something for the harder fight in the
crucial States, Indiana, Nebraska, Ohio
and Illinois, and it is plain General
Woods nomination campaign will cost
81, 900 or x3,0O0,000.
1t IN all Legitimate expenditure
And it is all foolish expenditure.
Senator Johnson, spending little money,
gets almost as many votes as does General
Wood, although he is weaker candidate.
Henry Ford, spending not one cent,
almost beat SenatorsNewberry, who spent
so much that he may go to Jail, and In the
heavily Republican State of Michigan in
the Republican year, 1918.
If General Wood had declined to spend
cent, he would have been in dignifed
position, In as dignihed q position as are
Mr. Hoover and Mr.. McAdoo.
He might conceivnbly have stood
better chance of nomination than he now
does. The time will come when the
violent seeking of Office with vast ex-
penditures will defeat its own ends.
Perhaps this is the time.

WOODS CAMPAIGN COST
MOUNTS TO BIG TOTAL
Based on $4,000 in South Dakota,
Nomination May Require Out
lay of $3,000,000.
Philadelphia Evening Ledger of Yesterday

Philadelphia Evening Ledger of Yesterday
General Woods campaign in South
Dakota cost $4,000, according TO Chair
man King, his State representative.
This makes no accounting for what In
business is called overhead, South Dakota s
share of the general expenses OF the
Chicago, New York and Washington
headquarters or the expenses of speakers
like General Wood himself sent into South
Dakota by the general committee of the
Wood boomers.
Still, $4,000 is tidy sum to spend n a
small and unimportant State like South
Dakota.
Let us see how it works out.
For $4,000 the general acquired ten
delegates, or 5000 a delegate.
His managers estimate 800 votes for
the general on the first ballot; at this rate
the cost of efforts in his behalf will be
81, 100000.
To be sure the general will get many
delegates in States where direct finances
do not prevail and where the per capita
cost will be less.
Take it another way.
There are some fourteen direct-primary
States.
At $4,000 State that would make
100000.
But South Dakota is one of the smallest
and least Impo- -tant of these.
So 81 100000 or 81 100000 is fair
estimate of the cost of seeking votes in the
dircct-pfimary States.
And there are the other less costly, but
still costly States where there are no
direct primaries.
And oil this makes no allowance for
central expenses at Chicago and New York.
But South Dakota made little difference
TO General Wood.
He will sure fail of nomination If he
does not carry all or most OF these States,

Careless Shampooing
Spoils the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, if
YOU want TO keep your hair looking It's
best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkah.- This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins It,
The best thing for steady use is Null
sifed cocoanut oil shampoo (which is
pure and greaseless), and is better than
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls win cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
rnoisten the hair with water and rub it
IN. II makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandrIff and
excessive oil The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and
hair fine and silky, bright lustrous, fluffy
and easy to manage.
You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil
shampoo ar any pharmacy, it's very cheap,
and few ounces will supply every member

that many Of the draped forms sug-
gest Princess outline. A type of
this cercmonious evening dress,
which continues to be in vogue and
is shown by Beer, as we'll as other
conservative makers, is sketched at
the upper right of the page. You
will observe the Princess form
which the drapery now assumes.
The underskirt of pleated mousse
line in contrasting color is worthy
Of comment.
In another Of the models shown
to-day mousseline is used in COM
bination with yellow satin brocade.
The mousseline takes the form Of
cascading side panels, which hang
much longer than the skirt itself.
Tho brocade forms the bodice,
sleeves and front and back panels
of the skirt. A beautiful contrast
is achieved through a girdle Of rust
colored taffeta that shades into
Crange.
