THE press" he said, ''is one of the
most important. perhaps the most inn

spect and understanding between the
British and American people can be
maintained and developed, and where
by their relations can be kept free
from misconception. In the admirable
tone of the British press I see every
indication that I may regard it as a
powerful ally in my efforts to pro-

RESOLUTION
EXPECTED TO co TO
SENATE TOMORROW
Long Battle Seems Certain
After Measure Leaves
Committee.

The peace resolution passed by the
House will be delivered to the Senate
tomorrow. it is expected. and Will be
promptly referred to the Senate for
eign relations committee.
Under present plans. the committee
will not take up the resolution until
later in the week. when Senator Knox
of Pennsylvania. a prime mover in the
plan for the adoption of resolution
by Congress ending the war. is to re-
turn to Washington. Senator Hitch
cock of Nebraska, the democratic lead
err, left Washington last night for
Nebraska to be gone ten days. He is
the ranking democratic member of the
senate foreign relations committee,
but the republican leaders do not pro-
pose to await his return before taking
up the resolution in committee.
Inc peace resolution probably will
be reported to the Senate after a COM
paratively brief consideration. But
once 1T is in the Senate. a long battle
is to be expected. Senator Hitchcock
said last night before leaving here
tnat he believed the whole debate over
the peace treaty would be reopened.
and that 1t would be long time be-
fore a vote was reached in the SEN
ate. He predicted that the resolu-
ton. If passed and vetoed by the Pres
ident. would not be passed over the
veto.
Could Hardly Beat Veto.
More than a third of the Senate
VIII vote against passing such a reso-
luton over the Presidents veto" he
said 1t requires a two-thirds vote
OF the Senate to overrule the presi-
Dental veto. Other prominent demo
Gratis predicted that few of their party
luton.
Senator Hitchcock said that he and
other democrats had considered the
adVisabilfty of Offering the league
OF nations provisions as an amend
ment to the peace resolution. but had
the doubtful constitutionality of the
entire proceeding.
I'VE have determined to stand on
the ground which we have taken in
the past" he said. 1.-The peace treaty
should be ratified without reserva-
lions that nullify it."
Hopes Treaty VIII Come Back.
Senator Hitchcock expressed the
belief that the treaty would be sent
saying that he hoped this course
intimation from sthe White House,
however, that the President intends
to send the treaty to the Senate
again. he said.
Undoubtedly the debate in the SEN
ate will dwell particularly upon the
question of the constitutionality of
Congress passing a resolution ending
the war. or. in effect, declaring peace.
Opponents of the peace resolution
will insist that Congress has no such
power under the Constitution. but
that in attempting to put through the
resolution it is invading the field OF
the executive branch of the govern
ment.

Milk and cream are now more
generally pasteurized in the
United States under municipal
ordinances, and the practice has
everywhere resulted in reduced
fnfantile mortality and has inn
proved general health condi-
lions.
We have practically no laws
for the safeguarding of the in

When our blood is vitiated,
either by continued breathing
of impure air or by the partak-
ing of impure food, disease
germs grow and multiply with
in us. Pasteurization of milk
and cream eliminates the most
important cause outside OF bad
air which may vitiate our blood.
The aim Of hygiene is to main

to uphold and increase our
natural resistance against the
growth of disease germs that
