CHIEF OF CHAPLAINS

INCREASING STEADILY

WASHINGTON, March 2-Army
posts are "barometers of the social
life of communities" near which they
lie and inspection of more than two
score western posts shows that "the
morale of officers and soldiers Is i'm
proving steadily Col John T. Axton,
chief of Chaplains of the army reports
today on his return 10 Washington
from an inspection trip.
Clergy of the communities about the
posts are cooperating with the army
chaplains, Col. Axton said, and spirit
ual results unthought of few years
ago are being accomplished by such
united ministerial efforts.
"But the most noteworthy change
in the moral program of the army
the chief captain added, Z" is the active
and whole-hearted cooperation of the
commanding officers with chaplains.
There is a deeper and better apprecia-
ton of the Importance of religious
work among soldiers and of the high
place which spiritual influence has in
the development of character
Col. Axton said he observed much
anxiety throughout the army centers
he visited due to the discussion in
Washington for further radical reduc-
tions of the army.
'The only marring cloud on the
otherwise clearing horizon" he said
of his trip, was the very depressing
effect of the prospect of such a radical
reduction in the size of the army as
will diminish it's efficiency

HITCHCOCK DEMANDS
RESERVATIONS MADE
TO 4-POWER TREATY
fBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Senator
Hitchcock, of Nebraska, ranking DEM
ocrat on the senate foreign relations
committee, declared In an address in
the senate today opening debate on
the four power Pacific treaty, that he
could not support it unless amend
ments or reservations were adopted
to meet his objection.
The treaty was called up late yes
terday morning after the senate had
ratified without reservation the Yap
treaty with Japan by vote OF 81 to
% in which the 80 Democrats divided
13 for ratification and 10 against.
while only three Republicans voted
in the negative.
The significance of that vote with
regard to the four power and other
treaties awaiting senate action was a
question on which the leaders of the
various senate elements today dis
agreed The administration mana
gers said they expected to lose very
few" of the votes they commanded yes
terday in the subsequent ratification
roll calls, while the "irreconcilables"
predicted that the line up on the four
power treaty would show at least
seven and probably more who voted
for the Yap treaty or were absent
voting against 1t.

IN SOME LOCALITIES
LOOKING VERY POOR

INDIANAPOLIS, March 2.-Winter
wheat in some localities, of the state,
according to the semi-monthly report
of George C. Bryant, United States
agricultural statistician. in Indiana
looks poor. Maple sugar camps have
opened and, according to the report
and present conditions indicate that
the yield this year will be much larger
than that of last year.
Rye shows a much better condition
than wheat but has been damaged to
some extent.
Clover and alfalfa show considerable
damage from severe weather and
cinch bugs are abundant in many
places.
Tobacco prices are off slightly from
the last report and farmers are not
selling as freely as a few weeks ago.
All live stock is in good condition
for this season of the year
The labor supply continues to be
plentiful.
Corn prices have continued to ad.
vance and slightly larger amount is
being sold Testing seed corn has
commenced and preparation is being
made to get into the fields for plow-

upset some of the stiffest basketball
competition to be found in the state
and will be a worthy representative of
this district at the regional meet.
Good Seml-FinaIs

finals, but drawings were such that
If the dope runs true they will meet
in the semi-finals Saturday afternoon

one of the most attractive games of
the entire meet. 1t is expected that
this game will attract even a larger
crowd than the final game Saturday
night

this game will no doubt win the
classic, as it will meet either Fountain
City or Hagerstown in the last con-
test. Eeither of these teams has
good chance to cop this game Hagers-
town, no doubt, is the favorite, but the
Fountain City team plays a whale of
game on large floor and should not
be underestimated. 1t will cause con-
siderable trouble before the meet is
over.
Worthy Opponents
Connersville will meet two worthy
opponents before the semi-f1nal contest
in Centerville and Cambridge City. It
will meet the Centerville five in the 2
o'clock game Friday afternoon. After
this game it will tackle the Cambridge
City five at o'clock Saturday morn

fast, as the Cambridge City team has
been stepping along at lively pace in

WASHINGTON STIRRED
BY CONTEST BETWEEN
BEVERIDCE and new
PALLADIUM. NEWS BUREAU

WASHINGTON, March 2.-The first
contest of the congressional campaign
the South Dakota primary. Will be
held March %. South Dakota is not
one of the states, however, to elect a
United States senator this year, but as
the first state primary of the year it
is listed as an important event on the
political calendar. 1t will give good
idea as to the drift of the tide of pub
lie opinion.
The Illinois primary is the only one
which will be held in April. 1t Is
scheduled for the eleventh day of that
month. Illinois is another state which
does not elect a senator this year, but
the contest will be of especial polite
al Importance, particularly from Re-
publican viewpoint. The factions
headed by Mayor Thompson of Chi
cago and by Senator Mccormick are
bitterly antagonistic and each is put
ting forth every effort to secure con-
troll of the party organization.
Following the Illinois primary the
eyes of the nation will be turned upon
Indiana and that state will remain in
the binding glare Of the political
spot light until after its primary cleo
ton. May 2. The spectacular feature
of the Indiana primary campaign is,
of course, the contest between Senator
Harry S. New and former Senator Al
bert j. Beveridge for the Republican
senatorial nomination This contest
is undoubtedly the most generally dis
cussed political topic in the United
States at this time. 1t has stirred
political Washington to fever heat.

held in May, in Pennsylvania on the
