Are Your Pictures

Have you ever entered the living

at once Of some particular picture
hanging on the wall-perhaps one

Jumped out At your Such pictures
are improperly framed. They prove
that the home woman has given little
thought and study to the framing Of
her pictures.
Both frame and mat of a picture
should be In harmony with the walls
and woodwork Of the room in which
1t hangs. For the picture itself is
the thing that should attract. not its

In room. but also detracts from the

or course. a good picture needs a
good frame. but the frame should
never assert itself at the expense Of
the picture. It's width, size and color
must suit the picture. An engraving
framed in black with a dead white
mat Is too startling for instance, to
look well in any room; 1t should be
framed close in dull brown. or, if de-
sired. with a narrow tinted mat in
harmony with both frame and walls

FINDS FAVOR

Washington, April 12-General ap-
prevail of President Harding's decla-
rations in his first message to Con-
gress today that the United States
could have no part in the present
League of Nations and that the state
of war should be ended by congress
Sional resolution was expressed by
Republican Senate leaders, both of
the "irreconcilable" and "reserva-
tionists" groups.
Senator Lodge, who led the long
fight for reservations to the treaty of
Versailles, said he was extremely
pleased" by the message, which he
declared separates us from the
League and approves passage of the
Knox resolution
Senators Johnson of California
and Borah of Idaho, leaders of the
"irreconcilables" expressed gratifica-
ton that the president has definitely
rejected the present league and had
declared for restoration of peace by
congressional action.
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska,
acting Democratic leader, who led
the Wilson forces in the Senate for
ratification of the treaty and league,
expressed disappointment at the
presidents message. He declared
that by refusing to enter the league
the United States had refused to
take part in the effort to stabilize
the social, business and government
al conditions of the world, without
which, he said, there could be neither
a revival of business nor prosperity
Senators Johnson and Borah both
express hearty approval of the presi-

Scrap Promised
in Reorganization
Senate Committees

Washington. April IA contro-
versy is expected in the Senate to-
morrow over Republican plans for
reorganizing committees. At con-
ference of Republican senators late
today it was agreed to endorse the
plan to increase the membership of
the ten major committees from IF
teen to sixteen, in order to provide
an extra place for Republican and
to give the Democrats but six places
on each.
The Republican program will re-
quire a change in the Senate rules
and Democratic leaders said tonight
they proposed to oppose the increase
in Republican personnel and the
Democratic allotment. The latter
are considered by Democratic leaders
as insufficient in their proportion to
Democratic Senate membership.
The Republican committee assign
ments prepared by the committee on
committees were approved at today's
conference, which also authorized
increase of the banking and currency
committee from thirteen to fifteen
members. The only important change
in chairmanships is that of Senator
Norris of Nebraska, to be chairman
ceeding former Senator Gronna of
North Dakota. Senators Kellogg of
Minnesota, and Mccormick of Illinois,
are to be added to the foreign rela-
tons committee.

Proposed Association Of Nations -|rreConci|ab@s and
ReSeryationiStS Nod Heads at Definite Rejec-
ton Of League Of Nations
LEAGUE TO DISCARDS

Washington, April 12-Final re-
lection of the Versailles League of
Nations by the American government
was proclaimed to the world today
by President Harding in a solemn
announcement of the foreign policy
of his administration.
Speaking before the new Congress,
assembled to write a program of po-
litical and economic reconstruction
the President declared acceptance
of the League would be nothing
short of a betrayal of the mandate
of the November elections. Instead
he asked for a congressional declara-
ton of peace and for ratification of
those portions of the Versailles
treaty which protect specifically
American rights and interests in the
war settlement.
I'm the existing League of Ma
tons, world governing with its super
powers, this republic will have no
part" he said. 1T is only fair to
say to the world in general and to
our associates in war in particular,
that the League covenant can have
no sanction by u.s."
The declaration was answered by
tremendous demonstration in
which Republican senators and rep
resentatives led, while most of their
Democratic colleagues sat silent and
unsmiling. After weighing the
words of the chief executive. the
senatorial group of treaty irrecon-
cllables tonight were claiming a COM
plete victory, predicting that even
the portions of the treaty endorsed
by Mr.. Harding never would receive
Senate approval
In his recommendations for do
nestle legislation the President gave
greatest attention to tariff and tax
revision and to the railway situation.
though he endorsed list of lesser
measures which congressional lead
ers declared might prolong the spec
ial session until the snow flies. He
also took occasion in his address of
nearly an hour to declare his faith
in a maintained merchant marine
and in the principle of armament
reduction without asking for legisla-
ton on either subject
An emergency tariff to correct
serious disorders in American indus
try was placed at the head of the
Presidents requests, and within an
hour after he finished speaking the
House ways and means committee
agreed to report tomorrow the en-
Urgency measure passed at the last
session and vetoed by President
