NOW IT'S MAJOR
CEN'L. EDWARDS
BY SENATEvoTE
Nomination of IL Con-
firmed Despite Mi
nority Fight
Opposition Able to Muster But
Five Votes on Roll Call
Many Democrats Vote for
Former Commander of Yam
kee DivisiOn-Other Nomin-
atoms Confirmed

Washington, April 26-The nomi-
nations of Brigadier General Clar-
ence r. Edwards and eleven other
brigadier generals to be major gen.
erals were confirmed late today by
the Senate.
The nominations of IA colonies to
be brigadier generals also were con-
firmed.
Opposition to General Edwards,
which had developed in the military
committee was carried to the Senate
floor. Senator Mcclellan, Democrat,
Tennessee, it was reported, led the
fight against him and forced a roll
call upon which there were only five
negative votes against confirmation.
All of these were Democrats. 1t
was said that the opponents were
Senators Mcclellan, Harrison of
Mississippi. King Of Utah, and Tram
NELL and Fletcher of Florida.
The vote for Edwards was said to
be SO, including several Democratic
senators. A large number of sena-
tors were absent.
Senator Mcclellan was reported to
have based his opposition on the in
formation disclosed before the mill
tary committee. This related to the
relief of General Edwards from COM
mand of the Twenty-siXth New
England National Guard) Division
on the eve of battle in October. 1913,
by General Pershing. 1t was said
that Senator Mcclellan took the posi-
ton that General Edwards military
record did not justify his promotion.
The Senate also confirmed a num-
Der of army officers to be brigadier
generals in charge of war depart
ment bureaus. Among tehse were
Charles 7. Menoher, to be chief of
the air service: George o. Squier to
be chief signal officer and John L.
Chamberlain, to be inspector gen.
eral
Charles G. Dawes of Chicago was
confirmed as a brigadier general in
the reserve corps and the Senate also
approved several hundred minor pro-
motions in the army.

Knox Resolution
Debate Over to Today
Solid G.. O. p. Support

Washington, April 26-Debate on
the Knox peace resolution was post
poned today until tomorrow. No SEN
ators We're prepared to begin the dis
cussion, it was explained. That the
debate will occupy but few days
still was predicted by leaders of both
parties. Few lengthy speeches We're
said to be in contemplation.
Solid Republican support of the
Knox measure was claimed on the
Republican side, and it was conceded
that several Democrats would give it
their vote. When first adopted May
Is, 1920, the Senate vote was 43 to SO
with three Democrats; Reed of Mis-
souri,, Shields of Tennessee and
Walsh of Massachusetts, voting for
adoption and two Republicans. Nc
Cumber or North Dakota and Nelson
of Minnesota in opposition.
Two substitutes for the Knox reso-
luton are to be offered by Senator
King, Democrat, Utah. One would
propose ratification of the peace
terms of the treaty of Versailles, ex-
elusive of the League of Nations
covenant and another would declare
peace without repeating the war res
olutions, reserving American rights
under existing treaties.

Bandits Hold Up Dry
Sleuths, Get Away
with Cases of Scotch

Alburg. VT. April 26.--Search is
being made by federal officials for
eight cases of Scotch whiskey which
ono of their number had in his pos
session for a brief time Saturday but
which was taken away from him by
highwaymen.
The liquor was found by tWee rev.
eRue officers in a motorboat stranded
at Windmill FCint in Lake Champlain,
short distance from this town. After
trying in vain to start the boat, the
officers transferred the liquor to an au-
uomohile and one of them started for
town with it. He had gone but short
distance when five armed men, with
pistols and shotguns, sprang out of a
swamp and held him up. While some
OF them unloaded the whiskey and
hurried it away. others crippled his
automobile and left the officer to con-
unue his journey afoot. No trace of
me holdup men has been found.

MIR. German said that since there

AS ALLIES WISH

Washington, April 26. (By The AS
ISOLATED Press)-Events here today
indicated clearly that the United
States in replying to Germany's coun-
ter proposals on PREPARATIONS would
be guided almost if not wholly by
the decisions of the Allied govern
ments as to whether the new PROPOSE
tions put forward by Berlin were of
such a nature as to form the basis
for further negotiations.
Secretary Hughes conferred late
today with each of the Allied diplo-
matte representatives, discussing
with them briefly the German COM
munication, which was received ear
ly in the day from American Commits
sioner Dresel at Berlin The foreign
ENJOYS Immediately reported to their
governments by cable and it under
stood that the framing of a reply to
Germany would await the outcome
of these exchanges.
AS the allied governments were be-
lieved to be in possession of the text
Of the German proposals, which was
made public today at Berlin, it was
not thought that a reply would be
long delayed. 1t was. suggested,
however, that exchanges between Pa
ris and London might be necessary
before a final decision was reached.
If Secretary Hughes received from
| foreign diplomats any indication of
the views of their governments with
regard to the counter proposals the
fact was not disclosed nor was there
any intimation as to how American
government officials viewed them
There was some evidence, however,
that the statement contained in press
dispatches from Paris that the Ger
man offer was believed to be inaccep-
table to France, caused little, if any.
surprise.
. Discussion Of the German memo
randum is understood to have occu-
pied much of q two hours session to-
day of President Harding's cabinet.
What occurred in the cabinet room,
however. remained a carefully guard
ed secret. those attending declining to
discuss the subject
! After returning to the State de-
partment from the White House.
! Secretary Hughes sent invitations to
the Allied diplomats to visit him in
his office for discussion of the Ger
man proposals. These invitations
| went out to the representatives not
only of Great Britain and France,
but also of Belgium, Italy and Japan.
| Baron de Marchienne, the Belgian
ambassador. was among the first to
call on the secretary. Each envoy
was received separately and each con-
| ference was brief, the seris of visits
being concluded within little more
than an hour.

Brunswick Fire
Laddies Busy Tuesday

Brunswick, April &c - (SpeciaD -
The Brunswick Fire department
fought fire for 5 hours and 40 min
utes today. A call at $50 this morn
ing summoned the chemical to Top
sham, where the buildings on the
Meadow road owned and occupied by
Samuel c. Curtis and Walter H. Cur
tbs caught fire from an over-heated
chimney. The fire had such a start
that the firemen were unable to stop
it and the house and barn, valued at
$4,000, were totally destroyed, togeth-
er with most of their contents.
At 235 this afternoon a call was
recorded for a fire on the roof Of a
large barn owned by David E. Moul-
ton of Portland on the Portland road
two miles from the fire station. Three
pieces of motor apparatus were sent
out and for more than four hours
fought the flames, using 10 large
chemical tangs. The barn, which
was valued at $4,000, was saved, but
the roof was practically burned off.
