Attack Colombian Treaty

Washington, April 10. - Republican
senators of the progressive group. led
by Senator johnson of California, to-
day renewed the attack on the pending
Colombian treaty as leaders sent word
to President Harding that 1t was as.

derstand the marvellous and over
night change" of many Republican
senators who opposed ratification in
1917.
This treaty" he said, would never
have been ratified during the> life of
Theodore Roosevelt"
The senator suggested that the s25..
900 900 payment provided for by tho
treaty be devoted insetad "to starving

Hotel Accommodations Bad
and COngested With In
creased Patronage of
Men of Business
PASSPORT VISINGS
STRICTLY IRKSOME
MUCH RED TAPE MET WITH by
THOSE WHO SEEK TO CROSS
BOUNDARY LINES or THE
EUROPEAN NATIONS

Berlin, April 15.---American tourists
who come to Germany this summer will
find conditions Of travel far less at
tractive than in pre.war times. In Ham,
burg and Berlin hotel facilities are con-
stantly overtaxed by business men and
even persons who have telegraphed days
in advance for accommodations are
turned away by the first-class hotels.
If foreigners are assigned to rooms they
pay far more than is charged Ger
mans.
Conditions along the Rhine are not
especially inviting for tourists. The
larger places are overtaXed by the oc-
cupying armies, and it is almost inn
possible for outsiders to get first class
hotel accommodations. Cologne, CoblenZ,
and MainZ are filled to overflowing by
British, French and American Of
ficers, respectively. Most Of the hotels
are under control of the military and
have authorization from commanding
officers.
IL is also difficult for tourists TO travel
between the various sections of the oc-
cupied area. Police registration is very
strict and permits must be obtained to
enter and leave various areas.
In south Germany conditions are
more inviting To pleasure seekers. Dres'
den and Munich are not so filled with
business men and the better hotels arc
usually able to provide tourists with
Iarg than In RDrlIn
and Hamburg.
The passport problem Is annoying
even within Germany's own boundaries
For example. il Is necessary for
tourist going from Berlin to Bavaria 10
have the wise of the Bavaran legation
in Berlin This precaution has been
taken by Bavaria 10 prevent red aglia-
tors from invading their territory from
Berlin.
Trains are normal in Germany. Bread
cards are necessary TO get bread in din
ing cars and hotels and most of the
bread served Is hard and black.
In the smaller cities and Villages
tourists will find living caHditions much
the same as they We're before the war
Americans motoring through Germany
or travelling on trains are courteously
treated. There is no longer any dispo'
sition to resent the use Of the Eng.
lish language.
So far this year there have been few
Americans in Germany excepting busi'
ness men and persons who came 10 visit
relatives. Most OF these found the pass
port regulations very irksome. Tour
lists arriving at Dutch. Belgium. French
or English ports suffer delays in get
ting vises for Germany. and srave

tions.
It Is almost impossible under present
conditions for tourists to travel on {

crossing Of boundaries. Passport Off

The Emergency Tariff

anti-dumping bill with general debate
which continued all afternoon. Rep

Mr.. Cochran declared that there was

Head and Heart of the firms
Conference

Hughes, without doubt, is the
brains of the Arms Conference
but Harding is it's heart. By ma
ture, inclination and experience,
he voices the sentiment OF a
nation-and is content. Every
word he has uttered is one
voicing not the ambition of a
man but the hope of a people
and is thereby a world inspira-
ton. To those who know the
detailed intricacies Of dealing
with nations, he gives the honor
and recognition that is right
fully theirs. Enough for him, to
acquaint them of a Nations de-
sire and prayer. He is, today,
the Interpreter of the Nations
thought. Serving and represent
ing thus, he is proving his true
greatness. Our delegates, in
turn, are transmitting this to
the pages of history. There is
glory enough for us all. No man
living today could probably fill,
so efficiently and with such
masterful strength, the position
held by Secretary Hughes-not
even the President himself. Nor
we doubt could Hughes speak
the National thought with the
modesty and heart of Harding.
Hughes is a man of thought,
Harding one of feeling. To-
gether they typify the brains
and heart of the conference.

COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS

Continued from Page One.)
Gallaher, Charles Hubert, Frank
Fader and Mayor Frazer. These
people will meet tonight at the home
of Mrs. Cam and outline the pro-
gram which will be announced later.
These community Christmas affairs
have proven very popular in recent
years and it is the hope Of all those
interested that the people Of Newark
will see that the local celebration is
second to none.
The school children have been drill
ing for the past few weeks in the
carols which are to be sung, and Miss
Wilcox, of the Women's College, who
is directing this work, has reported
that the pupils have made good head
way with the work and will be ready
to do their best at the time of the
affair.
1t is the hope Of the committee
that sufficient musical aid will be
forthcoming to uphold the singing
and probably Mr.. Pryor and Mr.,
Jones will be appointed as commit
tee to look after this end of the pro-
gram.
The present plans are to start the
exercises at The Knoll at o'clock
and following the conclusion of the
program the singers will disperse in
small groups and go about the town
singing carols of the season.

NEW INDUSTRIAL

about two week the matter has been
under consideration and the Newark
people interested have been on the go
all the time and have some excellent
references for the company.
The site under consideration is that
of the American Machine Co., on
Cleveland Avenue. This shop has not
been in use for the past few months
and will make an ideal location for
the New York firm.
Reamers, arbors, and mandrels are
the products of the Paramount peo-
pie and although not an old firm their
goods are well known in the machine
world and have proven of high grade.
The work on these grades of tools re-
quires skilled labor and the new COM
pany will probably, if located here,
bring several of their own men with
them and take on Is or 20 local men.
Before next week it will be known
definitely whether the company is to
locate here. If they do, extensive al
terations and additions will be made
to the American Machine Co. plant
and the installation of the up-to-date
machinery will start as soon as pos
sible.

Miss Nellie Wilson will act as accom-

er. With a body of officers of this calibre
behind it it seems an impossibility for
the club not to go forward.
All those present last week gave
promise of attending next Monday night
and to bring in as many new members
as possible to this meeting.
The meeting on next Monday night
will be taken over in a greater part with
the practicing of Christmas music. 1t is
the hopes of the members of the organi.
zation that they will have several mum
bers ready to render at the Community
Christmas celebration. Another stunt
that will be on the program for Christ

Gus parts of the town by small bodies
of members of the club.
