likely to center upon efforts of the
anti-treaty cohorts to dislodge
some Of the Senators whose ante

difficult to consider them as def

Of the four-power alliance. Among
these are such senators as Norris

who inspired the rejection of the
Shantung provisions of the Yer

himself to making the United
States a partner In the defense Of
Japanese cruelty in Korea is
question difficult to answer
Party regularity makes II easier
to account for the fact that such
Senators as Mccormick. Brande-
gee and Moses should have fol
lowed Senator Lodge into the
hospitable lists of the 'reconciled
irreconcilabl es." But party regu-
larity. in the past, at least. has
meant nothing to the fighting Sen
ator from Nebraska. AS the
change of a single vote may deter
mine the final fate Of the treaty,
1t seems likely that he will find
plenty of arguments flying in his
direction.

In the strange hope that II would
aid the reha bilitation of Germany.
While most OF yesterday was
spent in arguments as irrelevant
as these. the treaty proponents
carefully avoided any defense
against the Robinson amendment
upon which the actual vote was
to be taken. Not until five
minutes before the gavel fell did
Senator Underwood undertake to
say a word in opposition 10 the

before he reached his point.
Thus does the Senate handle the
fate of nations.

F0RDNEY ACTS
To JAM BONUS
BILL THROUGH
Plans Pushed for Action Next
Week Despite Opposition
From President.
BY A. o. HAYWARD,
international News Service.


Plans of Chairman Fordney OF
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee to jam the soldiers bonus
bill through the House early next
week without Crossing a t. or
dotting an 81" went forward TO-
day in the face Of reports from
the Presidential party in Florida
that efforts would be made to
thwart his program Of immediate
action.
May Vote Monday.
The Ways and Means Committee
has instructed Fordney to get the
bill passed as soon as possible. and II
Is the plan of Republican leaders to
call the measure up next Monday
under q Suspension rule which
would limit debate to forty minutes
and under which the introduction OF
amendments would not be permitted
A two-thirds vote Is required to
pass q bill under the suspension
rule. but polls taken by those favor
ing the bonus indicate that there
would be no difficulty in rounding up
the necessary majority for passage
Chairman Fordney said Speaker
Gillett informed him before he left
for Florida with President Harding
that he favored general discussion
of the bonus bill in the House and
that he did not look with favor upon
taking the measure up under su
spension of the general rules per
hitting extended debate.
Not Opposed 10 Discussion.
1t was Fordney's opinion that Gil
lett was not contemplating any &C
ton that would delay the bill, but
he pointed out that Republican lead
ers were not opposed to extended
discussion OF the legislation and that
the bill might not be put on it's pass
age until Tuesday 80 that debate
would be in order.
Under the rule which would be
brought out TO handle the bill. sew
eral hours of debate would be per
mitted. but no member would have
a right to change the provisions or
the form Of the measure as reported
from the Ways and Means Commit
tee.
The only fear entertained by the
leaders IS that a coalition might be
profits and higher surtaxes. which
would cause some trouble for the
bonus supporters.
The five members of the Ways
and Means Committee who opposed
the bonus bill were busy today pre-
pairing their individual views. buI
did not indicate whether these would
be submitted in q formal report to
tho House mr. rpaSryed for gfa ON ~
on the floor during consideration OF
the legislation. These members are
kitchin, N. c.; Garner, Tex. and
Collier. Miss, Democrats; and Tread
way. Mass, and Tilson. Conn, Re
publicans.
With defeat in the committee OF
the sales tax. the excess profits tax
ard higher surfaces on incomes a.
= means of raising money to pay the
bonus, it was believed that such eff
forts to change the bill would cease
and that II would go on its passage
minus any revenue provision.

BY POLITICUS.

The pro-treaty Senators pretend
to be jubilant. BY a little mathe-
NAUTICAL juggling. they see a mar
row victory for the four.power
alliance in the Senate roll call that
defeated the Robinson amendment.
But their jubilations have a hol-
low sound in contrast with the
exuberant promises OF overwhelm-
ing victory which they proclaimed
a month ago. Then they shouted:
Not a half dozen votes against
the treaty"
Now they say:
"A vote and maybe two votes to
spare on the final roll c4ll."
Beneath their confident explana-
tons, the leaders in the treaty
fight conceal plenty of apprehen-
sion and alarm lest the following
which they have enrolled by means
of the Republican party whip may
slip away in the weeks of debate
which are still in prospect.

PROCURE BUTTER FROM FISH

1t is not generally known that the

II is from six to eight inches long and
very fat.
Every summer this fish comes from
the ocean up the rivers to spawn, like
salmon. Millions are taken In nets
First they are thrown into rough bins
made of cedar logs, where they lie for
a few days to soften In the sun.
Then they are placed In great cedar
watts of boiling water, the latter being
heated by hot stones which are dropped
into them. This primitive method of
heating has been found to produce bet
ter butter than when che fish are boiled
In the more orthodox fashion.
As the oil rises TO the top It is
skinned off. II hardens quickly and
has the appearance of lard. Beauti-
fully white. II Is not easy to detect II
