women and the one thing the Amer
leans wanted to get in their posses
sion. In short time he had his
pants off and clean shave. When
he again appeared he proved to be
the husband of the American widow
who believed he had been lost at sea.
However this was all Strengthened

the entire cast had done some hard
work in preparing for the play. The
same show will be put on again to-

FIGHT STARTED
IN SENATE

!. Washington, March 6-The admin
istration began today, fight for the
four power Pacific treaty that a CO.
alition of democratic and irreconcil-
ible republicans in the senate means
to destroy the treaty if they can. Ad-
ministration leaders set out to show
the senate and the country the con-
sequences of rejecting of the treaty.
Within the next few days it will be
pointed out in the senate just what
rejection would mean.
First-Instant revival of the An
glo-Japanese alliance regarded by
this country as menace.
Second-Destruction of all hope of
naval limitation as the United States
could not agree to limiting it's navy
if England and Japan were allied I'M
der an agreement to call for pooling
their navies in event Of war.
Third-There are enough senators
today to defeat the treaty counting
those who admit they do not know
whether it is good thing for the
United States or not. They do not
like the secrecy surrounding negoti-
ations of the treaty. To appease
them, Secretary Hughes who returns
this week from a vacation may be
permitted by President Harding to
tell what he thinks about the way it
was evolved.
LATER-The senate today without
debate adopted a resolution introduce
ed by Senator Borah of Idaho asking
that the senate be informed whether
the four power pacific treaty abro-
gates the Lansing-Ishii agreement
between the United States and Japan
relating to Japan's status in the
Orient. In the first of series Of
speeches by republican senator's in
support of the treaty, Senator New
of Indiana, member Of the foreign
relations committee today asserted:
That there is not even a covered
threat of force in the treaty.
That it does not go beyond the prin
ciples of compulsory arbitration.
That the United States has for
many years been committed oarbi-
tration, as a proper means Of settling
international differences, and there is
in the present treaty no infringe
ment on traditional policies:
That the criticism that the treaty
is like the League of Nations cove
nant is unfounded.
That the treaty puts the four pow
ers on the basis Of Continuing as
friends, instead Of making them "po-
litical enemies"
That the only obligation in it is the
obligation to confer.
That the United States would en-
ter such conferences unsuffered and
uncommitted and would remain free
to meet the situation in any way she
saw fit.
