come. Tuesday was the day for

SENATOR LODGE LEADS MOVE FOR RATIFICATION OF vEx-
 ATtOuS PACT.
WOULD IMPROVE RELATIONS
President Harding Declares Early Fa- vorable Consideration Would Be Helpful at the Present Time in
 Promoting Friendly Relations.

Washington. The fight over the Co., lombian treaty was reopened in the Senate, with Senator Lodge of Mas. sachusetts leading the forces for rati- fication.
 The contest, which administration leaders hope will result in a favorable vote on the Iong-pending pact on April 20, began with the reading in open executive session of message from President Harding, who de. clared the early favorable consider. ation of this treaty would be very helpful at the present time in promot. ing our friendly relationships" The message was sent to the Senate and read in executive session March 3.
 Senator Lodge opened the discus. sion with a prepared address in which he said ratification of the treaty not only would improve relations between the United States and Latin America, but that the world situation as re. gards oil, of which Colombia has rich stores, seemed very strongly to jus. tify, in fact to demand, the ratidca. tion"
 Acceptance of the treaty in it's pres. ent form, the senator contended. would not be inconsistent with the stand taken in 1917 by Republican minority members of the Foreign Re. laticns Committee in refusing tos agree to favorable report. Since then, he said. changes have been made. fncIud. ingelimination of the expression or the American government ~fegret'' to Colombia for the part played by the United States in the events at. tendant on the separation of Panama from Colombia. These changes. he said, removed in the main the objee. tions raised against the treaty in 1917.
 The senator further said ratifica. tion of the treaty in it's present form would cast no reflection on the action of President Roosevelt in extending recognition to Panama after 1t re voltad from Colombia.
 He read a letter written March q by Secretary Fall, who said confer ences and correspondence with the late Colonel Roosevelt in 1917 and thereafter had convinced him that Mr. Roosevelt not only was agreeable but desirous for such an agreement with Colombia as would make of that country our warm friend and even our ally"

souTH BANK OF RED RIVER THE STATE LINE, SUPREME
 COURT DECIDED,
OLD DECISION REAFFIRmED
Treaty of 1879 With Spain Is Taken as Basis For Fixing 1000 Miles of Rosder-Exact Location Is
 Postponed.

NashlHgtaR.-0k Oklahoma has won in the Supreme Court the first big point in her suit with Texas for jurisdiction over valuable Red river oil fields.
 In an opinion which was unanimous, except that Associate Justice Clarke took no part. the court held that the south bank of the Red river must be taken as the true boundary between Texas and Oklahoma from the south eastern corner of the latter state to the point where the river crosses the 100th meridian of longitude. More than LOGO miles of boundary are fixed permanently by the decision.
 The court based it's findings spe- officially on the terms of the treaty signed in 1919 between the United States and Spain, which sconsum- mated the Louisiana purchase" That document, il held. affirming it's own decision in the case of United States Texas, set the south bank of the river as the true boundary.
 Deliminiation of the exact location of the south bank" was postponed until the entering of the formal decree which will be promulgated within the next 30 days Until this decree is made public, those interested will be little better off than before the recent decision, because the river is extreme r wide and shallow along practically it's entire length.
 The contention that the evidence and arguments in the Green county case United States vs. Texas) raised no controversy as to whether the boundary followed the mid-channel or the south bank is not we'll founded" Associate Justice Pittney. who read the courts decision, said. The treaty Of 1919 and mass of historical data bearing upon it's proper interpretation were before the court. From excerpts between the secretary of state. John Quincy Adams, and the Spanish min- fster, il appeared that the question whether the boundary should follow the middle Of the Sabine and Red rivers or the westerly bank of the former and the seutherly bank of the latter was one of the points under discussion, the Spanish minister pro posing the middle lines. Mir Adams the banks
 The opinion then recited that among Adams memoirs was found the statement that the objection of Spain to making the banks, instead of the center Of the stream, the boundary was finally abandoned"

HER REALLY BRIGHT THOUGHT
Mary Ellen Had Shrewd Scheme for Making Sick Children Satisfied
 With Their Lot.

Little Mary Ellen Mckee is, as she terms it, just half past four" and lives around the corner from the Union hospital in Terre Haute, says the Indianapolis News. Recently she received a tricycle.. which she rides morning, noon and night. At first her rides were confined to her own street, but the other day she wished to ride around the corner.
 But the little sick children at the hospital will see you. and then they'll be unhappy because they can't ride, too" her mother told her.
 Mary Ellen was silent a minute. Then she said earnestly: Well. then, mother. I won't ride past the hos pital When I get in front of it I'll get off and push 1t like 1t was hard work, and then they won't be unhappy. They'll be glad they can lie in bed and not have to push things like tri- cycles"

MAY NOT ABANDON
 PEACE PROGRAM
ADOPTION OF MORE CAUTIOUS COURSE URGED BY HUGHES
 AND HOOVER.

Washington. Reports of cabinet friction over President Hardings peace program have begun to filter in to the Senate
 Secretary of State Hughes and Sec retary of Commerce Hoover are said to be out of sympathy with the plan to discard the Versailles treaty entire ly as basis of peace and are endeav- bring to persuade the president to adopt 8 more cautious course in mak- ing his recommendations to Con gress.
 According to information reaching senators Mr Hughes and MF Hoov- or. both of whom have always advo- eated ratification of the treaty with re- serYations, are trying to induce the president not to recommend peace by resolution or at least to hold up all action of this character for some time
 The presidents message will de- termine everything in this connection but senators supporting the Knox res olution are convinced Mir Harding will say nothing that will cause them to change their plans. They are satis- fled that the president has abandoned the Versailles treaty and that even if he does not definitely recommend ac- ton on the Knox resolution the pas sage of some measure of this kna must inevitably ensue at an early date. They believe that public senti- ment will not long tolerate a continu- ation of our present anomalous reIa- tions with Germany, and if peace is not to be made by treaty they believe the country will demand formal ter imitation of the state of war by act of Congress.
 Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, ranking Democratic member of the Foreign Relations Committee and leader for the fight for ratification of the treaty, returned to Washington re- gently and announced he would sup port any program recommended by President Harding that will bring about international cooperation"
 Tt seems to me-" he said. that the matter of supreme importance Is to get into eo-eporation with the other nations of the world now for i the purpose of rehabilitation and re- store stability. This administration for purely cold-blooded business req sons and by the logic of events, it seems to me. would be compelled to help other nations get on their feet to save them from bankruptcy
 Laying aside all questions of ideal i ism. altruism and sentiment, I see no escape from the conclusion that ulti- mately if not immediately, the Hard ing administration will adopt some policy of cooperation with other na- tions of the world, whether it is through the original League of Ma l tions or some other means.
 MT. Hitchcock did not indicate that he would support the Knox resolution.

 "For ten long years I suffered from sa very bad form of rheumatism, stom- sacil and nervous troubles. My appe- ytite was very poor. What little I did eat soured on my stomach and I sui fered the most severe pains in my back, hips and shoulders My rheu- snatism was so Dad that I could not raise my hands to comb my hair and my arms hurt me to my finger tips. ' became so weak and run down that I lost all my energy and life had be- things but nothing helped me.
 T had only taken my first bottle of Tanlac when I noticed my appetite was improving and I could sleep bet fer at night. I have taken three bot flcs and the way it has helped me and lbuilt me up is really astonishing. I can eat anything and everything with out the slightest disagreeable after effects. I sleep just fine at night and am in better health than I have been for years.
