The French people have been great

seem confident that the allies will be
able to agree fully, not only upon
measures to secure the disarmament

lines Of reparation.

sions of another revolution in the re-

The UniOnist party in that country is
reported to be convinced that the Sal

months ago overthrow Estrada Cabre.
ra as president. Reports received here
state that the revolutionary movement
in Salvador has the moral support OF
80 per cent Of the people.
One phase of the present apparently
serious situation in Salvador is the re.
suit Of a sort of coup de'etat by which
Carlos Melendes turned over the presi.
dency to his brother, Jorge, which is
alleged to be unconstitutional Fol
lowing this the revolutionary move
ment was undertaken with Arturo
Araujo as it's leader Araujo is a
wealthy engineer and land owner of
Salvador and chief OF the Republican
Unionist party, one of the most promi.
nent men of Central America, and has
spent millions of dollars for the bene-
fit Of public institutions.
To stop the revolutionary movement
the government conducted a series of
arrests and deportations. Honduras
refused to permit arms to pass
through its territory to the rebel
forces in Salvador and. consequently,
the revolution failed and Araujo fed
to Honduras, escaping government
troops sent after him by order Of the
president, who demanded Araujo, dead
or alive.
The leaders Of this revolutionary
movement are now in Guatemala, pre-
pairing to again try to overthrow Me.
lendes. 1t is believed here that the
government and revolutionary forces
will come to a clash some time early
this year unless the United States in
tervenes.
Most Of the foreign element in Sal
vador is reported to be in favor OF
Araujo and against Melendes, whose
sentiments against the United States
and Mexico are a matter Of common
report. Most Of the thinking people
of Central America want peace and be.

SENATOR JOHNSON HEARS JAPA-

Washington.-Senator Johnson Of
California introduced a resolution in
the Senate which, while not intended
to relate directly to the controversy
between the United States and Japan
respecting Japanese occupation of ST.
berian territory. If adopted would
bring to light all facts concerning the
American expedition to Siberia. The
resolution follows:
Resolved, That the Foreign Rela-
tions Committee or a subcommittee
thereof be, and is hereby authorized
to investigate the sending Of United
States soldiers to Siberia, the purpose
of their presence there, their activi-
ties and accomplishments, if any, and
also the condition and situation OF cit

terests of citizens of the United States
in Siberia"
Senator Johnson said that he and
other senators on the Foreign Rela-
tons Committee have received infor-
nation that the Japanese are becom-
ing strongly entrenched in Siberian
commerce and that American business
interests there, with a great field for
development, are suffering.

LCU|S|ANANS TAKE
UP FLOOD CONTROL
RAnSDEI.L AND WILSON DISCUSS
PLANS WITH GENERAL
BOARD.
ExTENsIC.S RECOMMENDED
Portion Requesting Another Engineer
to Study Atehafalaya Basin Can
Not Be Undertaken Without
Legislation.

Washington.-Steps to put into eff
ect the resolution of the flood con
troll convention, held in New Orleans
November Is and 16, were discussed
by Senator Ransdell and Representa-
tive Wilson with General Lansing II
Beach, chief of engineers. General
Beach conceded that the Mississippi
River Commission already has author
ity to extend the Fifth District levee
from Point Breeze, in Concordia par
ish, to Old River, distance Of some
five miles. The matter has been be-
fore the Mississippi River Commits
sion since the convention, but no an
nouncement as to it's intention in that
regard has been made.
That portion of the resolution which
requests another engineer study OF the
Atchafalaya Basin can not be under
taken without legislation, General
Beach declared Representative Will
son will introduce bill in the near
future providing for an additional ex-
animation in connection with the
possibilities for protecting lands in the
Atchafalaya, Red and Black river
basins from OVERLOOKING.
While all interests concurred at New
Orleans in recommending the extern
sion of the Fifth District levee to Old
River, the attitude Of the corps Of en-
gineers is in doubt. The extension Of
that levee would leave an opening one
mile wide at Old River, but 1t Is be-
lieved that five additional miles Of
levee would tend to increase the stage
of the Mississippi below that point.
This would add materially to the vol
ume of silt and for that reason it is
possible that the engineers will be
averse to the increasing OF their diff
ficulties at the passes Of the Missis-
sippi river.
Speaking on the floor of the House
in commemoration of the anniversary
of the Battle of New Orleans. Repre-
sentative O'Connor of the First Louisi-
ana District, said in part:
zone of the most important events
In the history of this world was writ
ten by the hand of fate when the Bat
tie of New Orleans was fought on the
plains of Chalmette, on the never-to-
be-forgotten eighth Of January. 1915.
Judged by the results that flowed
from 1t and their tremendous influ-
ences in the making of country that
now stretches from ocean to ocean, it
may be deemed one of the notable
victories obtained by American arms
in all of the history Of this great
republic. The flower of the British
army, which had withstood on many
a battlefield in the peninsula wars,
the shock of Napoleon's legions went
down in disastrous defeat on the
banks OF the Father of Waters below
New Orleans before the dauntless
courage of American manhood from
Tennessee, Kentucky, and what Is now
Mississippi and Louisiana.
