AN EYE ON NEXT CONGRESS
Official Washington 10 Specializing on
How Many Ex-Serviee Men viii
Be Returned.

Official Washington Is wondering
how many ex-service men are to be
returned to congress at the election
next fall. Speculation Is rife, with the
bonus controversy at full tilt.
Veterans of the World war already
have formidable strength in the house,
81 seats being occupied by former
service men, according to canvass by
the American Legion. The senate has
two eterans-Senator Newberry OF
Michigan, and Senator Elkins Of West
Virginia. Twenty-one states are rep
resented by ex-service men In con-
gress, New York leading with four,
Massachusetts and Tennessee being
second with three each.
Far-sighted persons have hazarded
the opinion that when the votes are
counted in November, It will be found
that the number Of ex-soldiers In the
house has been materially increased.

Long in time and short in impor-
tance" is the way Mr.. Hughes de-
scribes his military career. AS mat
ter Of fact he was a fairly important
soldier. He started as private In
the Seventh regiment in 1897. Ten
years later he was offered lieuten-
ant colonelcy, which he did not ac-
cept. He served on the Mexican bor-
der as captain, and only deafness
kept him from service abroad during
the World war. During the raising
Of troops In New York he served as
adjutant general, where his deafness
was an asset rather than a liability
with the pacifists footing their tin
whistles, and then he became cap
tain in the Intelligence service, being
lust as intelligent when deaf as when
sharp of hearing.
~ joined the Legion" Mr.. Hughes
wrote, because I believe in its prin-
ciples and l believe it to be one Of the
most important organizations In the
country" Mr.. Hughes has recently
come into public notice for his stand
against censorship.

The excellence of South Carolinas
credit was we'll demonstrated in the
success OF the state borrowing COM
mittee's visit to New York, at which
time a loan og S3,OOO,OOO was nego-

made through the Palmetto National
Bank of Columbia and is at rate Of
interest very much lower than that
secured last year.

than we did in the way OF low in

cussing the loan. You know Victory

Governor Cooper added that he knew
of no state getting as low a rate OF
interest and was much pleased with
the arrangements the committee was

president HARDING has ordered
L all American troops In Germany
returned to the United States by July
/, the beginning of the 1923 fiscal year.
This was the American governments
first answer to the refusal Of the allied
reparation commission to pay its bill
for S241 100000 for the expense Of
United States troops on the Rhine up
to May l, 1921, out Of billion gold
marks recently paid over by Germany.
The allies argue this way: The allies
are not bound by the Berlin treaty,
Just as the United States Is not bound
by the Versailles treaty. Americas
claim Is based on the Berlin treaty.
Therefore the allies are not bound
to pay the American claim.
Secretary Of State Hughes has made
the governments second answer. In
effect he has served notice on the
allies that they cannot dodge pay
ment Of the Rhine debt by attempting
to hide behind a technicality which
doesn't exist. Identical communica-
tions were placed Wednesday, March
q, by American ambassadors before
the governments Of Great Britain,
France, Italy, Japan and Belgium.
Secretary Hughes insists that the
right of the United States to be paid
Is not only clearly equitable but free
from any technical objection. He sets
forth In detail this right, as established
Jointly under the terms Of the armis-
tice, the treaty Of Versailles and the
treaty of peace between the United
States and Germany. He says the
United States will welcome any sug-
gestion from the allies for reasonable
adjustment. And In the meantime will
they please refrain from giving effect
to any arrangements for the distribu-
tion of German cash payments to the
exclusion of the claim Of the United
States.
Evidently the situation Is one which
requires an able secretary Of state. 1t
apparently has many complications.
In debate in the senate Senator Lodge
said that our claim had nothing 10 do
with either treaty, that 1t was based

Home From Rhine and Hughes
Notifies Allies They Must

BY JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN

THE four-power Pacific treaty was
l. ratified by the United States
senate Friday, March "a.
BY agreement made ten days in
advance the vote had been set for
that date. 1t came as the climax to
week of strenuous Oratory. The bit
terest debate was precipitated Mon
day when Senator Borah Republican
of IdahO) read into the record stenO-
graphic report Of statement attrib-
uted to Paul d. Cravath, 1.-The repre-
sentative Of the Morgans and the
Ryans," to the effect that the United
States had entered into secret agree
ment to cooperate with Great Britain
against Japan in the Pacific. Senators
Lodge and Underwood, Republican and
Democratic floor leaders and American
delegates to the conference with Secre-
tary of State Hughes and Ellhu Root,
denied the alleged Cravath statement.
Senator Robinson Of Arkansas, lead
ing the Democratic opposition to the
treaty, demanded a senatorial investi-
CATION and asked that Secretary
Hughes and Mr.. Root be called before
the foreign relations committee. At
this point Senator Lodge said:
"This debate is proceeding upon the
theory that the four American dele
gates were not only ignorant and in
competent but that they were prepared
tn hnt
plication against the honesty and pa
triotism Of the President. / believe
that they are as patriotic and as de-
sirOus of protecting the interests Of
their country as those who are SANDER
ing them by implication and insinua-
tions. L will trust the people Of the
United States to stand by the Presi-
dent and the four delegates in this
great conference"
Later Mr.. Cravath emphatlcally de-
MED the statement attributed to him..
Secretary Hughes wrote a letter in
which he said:
"In my letter to Senator Under
wood on March 11th, in relation to
the four-pOwer treaty, l said:
"'There are no secret notes or un-
derStandingS.'
Permit me to express the hope
that the American delegates will be
saved further aspersions upon their
veracity and honor"
To the Man in the Street the as
tonlshing part Of this Is the fact that
anyone-Unlted States senator or any
one else-should expect to get across
with charges, direct or indirect,
against either the honor, the efficiency,
the veracity or the patriotism of the
four American delegates
