JUDGE COHALAN
 SAYSENGLAND|S
 MENACE II J. ],
Republican A. p. Leased wirs1

CHICAGO, Feb. 21-That England was a menace 10 the United States <and the menace must be removed he Fore this country could be assured of peace, was the declaration of Judee Daniel r. Cohalan of New York to- night in an address at a Washington day dinner given by the committee of 100 for an Irish republic.
 He said that the United States should insist on England's freeing Canada and the West Indies as a basis for settlement of her war debt to this country. declaring England through war preparations in these places was preparing for a conflict with the United States.
 ''The British empire must be dis membered if the world is to have peace" the judge continued.
 "There are only three great powers left England, Japan and the United States, and we should turn our attention to helping Japan create an ' guivalent of the Monroe Doctrine which would read Asia for Asiatics.'
 Let us encourage her to turn her attention west instead of east Such conduct on our part would not alone relieve any tension between Japan and ourselves. but would remove from Aus tra1ia and Canada their fear Of Japar and their dependence upon the Britisi fleet. It would preserve the peoples Of Asia and prevent England or any other country from attempting to seize the lower half of Asia"

HOUSE COMMITTEE QUESTIONS LANDS
 RIGHT TO ACCEPT
 OUTSIDE POSITION
TRepubIIcan A. P. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Right of a federal judge to accept outside em- p1oyment while on the bench was sharply questioned by members of the house judiciary committee today in considering impeachment charges against Judge K. NJ. Landis.
 After Representative Welty. Demo- crat, Ohio, had outlined grounds on which he asked for the impeachment because of the judges S42,500 a year Icontract as arbiter of organized base bah, members insisted that the com mittee should go thoroughly into the lease. With this in view, Chairman Volstead announced that the question would be taken up Wednesday. It will be left for the committee, composed of lawyers, to decide whether there is sufficient ground to justify presentation of the case to the house. Should the house vote to im- peach, the senate would sit as the trial court. Three Republicans of the committee. Representative Husted. New York. Goodykoontz, West Vir- ginia, and Boies, iowa. expressed op- position to the double service of the judge
 Mir. Husted declared acceptance of so large an outside salary was ''out- rageous" but insisted the committed should have facts on which to draw an indictment. MT. Boies thought the judge might be forced by public opin- ion to quit one job
 Mir. Goodykoontz said if Judge Lan- dis course was legally and morally proper. there was nothing to prevent meat packers or others employing a
 man on the bench to look after their
 interests while acting as judge. i Asked to explain why Judge Landis had been picked by organized baseball MT Welty presented a letter from Chicago, which purported to quote one
 magnate as saying Landis, as a citi-
 zen, meant nothing to baseball but
 that Landis as a judge meant every ! thing. Mir. Welty was emphatic 1T
 the assertion that this was the req, basis for his appointment.
 1 Some members expressed the view that while the committee might no vote to impeach, the charges would no be dismissed without possible censurs or criticism It also was said MT Welty's bill making it unlawful for z federal judge to accept any pay ex cept that allowed him by the govern n1ent probably would be reported ou
 with a recommendation for speedy
 enactment

WASHINGTON. Feb. 21-F'orced forward in spite of parliamentary ob- stacles of determined minority resist ance. the Winslow bill for partial pay ments to railroads on their government guaranty account tonight was assured of final passage in the senate tomor- row.

Michi- gan acting chairman of the interstate commerce committee, had demonstfateo both their possession of majority vote and their purpose to exclude every thlii E from senate consideration until it's passage.
 Senator Kirby, Democrat, Ark, opened the onslaught by proposing an amendment designed to destroy the existing assurance of a six per cent return on railroad property through use of federal rate powers. He lost, as did Senator Trammell, Democrat, Florida, who offered other amendments designed to reduce the guaranteed return rate to four per cent.

Wisconsin, gave not ice that he would seek to have partla payments proposed by the bill held ur until the interstate commerce comnls- sion could investigate the use of gov ernment funds by the roads. He only yielded the floor after several hours and upon agreement to take 1t agalr 1 tomorrow.

President Harding is having a
sad time hushing the irreconcil-
ables. Every day they are quieter
than they were
stupor because the joint resolution
for a separate peace with Germany
does not move out of the House
of Representatives. They feel that
the President is keeping the res
olution there for his own purposes.
And they fear that the Presidents
purpose in delaying the peace res
,oiution would be only to give him
time to work out the plans of
Hughes and others.
Hold Up Tariff Measure.
The plan of Hughes is to get the
United States into a league OF ma
tions. Possibly it will be an asso-
citation of nations. possibly a world
court. But, league or association
or court, the irreconcilables believe
that it would be the Wilson COW
enant minus Article Ten, plus ex-
press stipulations that America
would not be responsible for the
enforcement of the Versailles treaty.
The reaction of the Senate leaders
to the delay of the House in passing
the joint resolution for peace with
Germany is to hold up the passage
of the emergency tariff measure.
This measure is near to the hearts
of mid Western Congressman who

BEUTHEN, Upper Silesia. May 8.
The insurgent Poles made Upper
Silesia look anything like coun-
try under martial law.
Yesterday during my trip from
Oppeln to Beuthen, ] passed through
a country that was almost entirely
in the hands of the insurgents. My
automobile was challenged by
Polish sentries at the entrance and
exit of every village. and after ]
had covered half the distance from
Oppeln TO Gross Strellitz, only tinice
did / see allied troops. They were
French and seemed entirely at
home in the area held by insurgents
I-passed through ten villages and
small cities and found in every one
that the people were celebrating
Sunday as usual. The squares were
packed with men, women and chill
dren promenading in and out
among the Polish patrols.
GleiwitZ was the only city
through which ! passed which was
not occupied by the Poles. There
French> sentries guarded all the
roads leading into town. Within a
stones throw of the French troops
insurgents had established guards
on both sides of the city.
French patrols passed through
the Polish patrols while ! drove by.
A truck carrying supplies to Poles
and others at Gleiwitz went through
the lines unchallenged.
The insurgents were mostly
young Poles. fired with enthusiasm
and patriotism. IMost have German
rifles and are dressed in civilian
clothes. A few wear officers uni
forms.
The insurgents are. well dis
ciplined. l heard no reports of out
RACES. The shops were doing busi-
ness as usual in every town.
The Germans in the southern area
mostly are remaining in their
homes, although ! met altogether
perhaps a hundred persons, mostly
barefooted, carrying their effects
on their backs and fleeing from
Oppeln.
