pose of men who have given most expert consideration to the subject. It is difficult to believe that a more representative, more impartial or more able tribunal could be estab- lished under any other plan. But in any case, the present court is actually in existence. It's jurisdic- tion, defined by its protocol of foun- dation, has been accepted by a large number of nations. It may well be doubted whether the nations which in good faith have given support to this program, would esteem it either & helpful or friendly gesture on our part, if we should indicate our will lingness to join in a judicial estab- lishment, but should insist that it must be some other than the one already set up. To adopt that atti- tude would seem unlikely to bring us far on the road to effective parrl- cipation in such a system. On the contrary, it might be regarded as implying our lack of faith in a tribu- nal which has the support and conf1- dence of a great group of nations. In short. the opinion of the country plainly is that if we have any sim cere purpose of adhering to the pro cedure of international adjudication. our only way to give convincing evil dence of this disposition, is to accept, uHueT SuCn FcSlTlctlOnS dS may po found necessary, the tribunal already created.

league advocacy. It is the demo- cratic opinion here that the Presi- dent is trying to appease both re- publican factions with the result that he is materially hurting himself with both.
 The President informs newspaper correspondents that he is behind with all his heart, and at the same time declares that he will not only not fight for, his idea but will not make appeals in it's behalf. It ap peared apologetic when the White House statement declared that no man could be President for a year without becoming aware of the neces- sity of the United States taking a part in international affairs.
 Party Ranks split.
 Immediately following the Presi- dents suggestion regarding the court it was obvious that the ranks of his party had been rended. The master politicians were against him. These included the chairman of the nation al, the congressional and the sena- torial campaign committees. Sena- tors Lodge, Brandegee. Watson and others who formely were "adminis- tration" men, and of course, the so- called "bitter-enders.'
 u NHeH ueNelOpeu lndl lHe resi- dent promised the chairman of the national committee that he would make only one speech in behalf of his sug gestion. That speech, ac cording to Adams was made in New York. It is understood that the President holds that his promise had bearing only on his western trip and that he would be within his rights were he to make one other address during the summer
 It is also learned that the Presi dent attempted to appease Lodge and Watson by agreeing that they should offer any reservations they might deem wise or expedient, this despite the fact that the President from ex- perience, was aware that Lodge, by reservations, is able to nulify. prac- tically, any international proposition.
 Furthermore, the President has stated that he would give up his western trip if there appeared to be danger that as result of such trip, party schism mi ght be developed. This cohciliatory attitude has, it is learned. greatly disappointed pro- league republicans beaded by Secre- taries Hughes and Hoover, former

HUMAN SLAUGHTER PEN" IS DESCRIPTION OF BIG LUMBER CAMP
Florida Legislature Commit tee Will Resume Probe h.
 to Tabert Death

TALLAHASSEE. Fla. May 7.-(By Associated Press )-Florida tomorrow again will investigate reported con- vict brutalities in state, county and privately owned lease camps, when a joint legislative committee will be- gin an inquiry into conditions at camps owned and operated by State Senator T. J. Knabb Witnesses be- gan arriving here today more than a score more are due before Q o'clock in the morning, the time set for the hearing.
 The committee has been in recess for one week after concluding its investigation into the Martin Tabert case. The Tabert inquiry, which involved the death of a North Da- kota boy alleged to have suffered fatal injuries when flogged by a boss, Walter Higginbotham, employed by the Putnam Lumber lasted more than three weeks. Higginbothem is now await ing that, having been indicted on a \rst degree murder charge.
 Senator Knabb appears anxious for the investigation into his convict He has on hand a number of witnesses. who he contends will bring him a clean bill of health" from the committee.
 Official reports of J. B. Thomas a prison supervisor, and W. A. Me- Rae, commissioner of agriculture, will be the investigation basis. Thomas reported at one time to Commissioner McRae that in his opin- ion Senator Knabb was operating a human slaughter pen, and it meant murder to allow convicts to remain there."

Weeping Women Tell Story Of Chinese Bandits Attack
 Express Upon Peking Train

ABOARD THE RESCUE TRAIN, NEAR TEEN TsIN. May 1.-Two American women, shivering In torn night attire, sobbing hysterically in m emory of horrors they had beheld and of the fate to which they had been forced to leave their husbands, staggered. barefoot and bleeding into a struggling little village in the Shantung Basin Monday
 As result of their escape from the savage horde that perpetrated the most daring piece of banditry in China's history, the world is able to wreck of the crack ghai-Peking Express and the Kidnapping of 34 for eigners that followed.
 Mrs. R. IT. Finger, whose husband is major in the American. army on duty In the Far East, and Mrs. Allen, Wife of an army captain, were the women who came, distracted but un- hurt, from the terrors of the bandit raid.
 Before they collapsed, the women told story of the wreck and the robbery and Kidnapping that followed. Passengers Asleep.
 All passengers of the express were asleep, in the small hours of Sunday morning, when the train ran from the rails into the ditch.
 The jar was not as terrific as might have been expected, the wom- en said, leading to their belief that the Chinese trainmen had been fore warned.
 Immidately, fierce -visaged bandits swarmed into the train.
 Lights went out, the power cut off.
 Brigands began firing up and down the corridors.
 Bands with rifle butts and pieces of timber smashed into the private compartments. Others held candles while the passengers, at the point of.

oayonets, were ordered to stand still or die.
 Then the marauders took every ones personal belongings. The search for loot lasted two hours, while the women passengers shrank before the srimaces of brigands.
 Ordered From Train. o
 When the bandits thought they had all the loot to be found, they or dered everyone from the express, in night clothes. only a few being per mitted to snatch up overwraps.
 Six Dutch and Italian passengers and one Chinese woman flattened themselves beneath their berths and escaped discovery.
 The rest were marched away over the boggy lowlands towards the mountains. The lone Chin.se woman who escaped said she heard shots fired as the captives were being marched away.
 Mrs Allen and Mrs. Finger stag gered and stumbled along for two miles with the rest of the hostages Then they could bear no more, nor move farther.
 Seeting they were completely ex- hausted their captors let them drop behind Off across a bleak waste land they saw lights of village. This they reached after great suffering, and here they found the train crew from the wrecked express. who promptly proceeded 10 rescue" them. and claim the honors for having done so.
 Off in the hills, to which the brlgands have withdrawn with the women's husbands and the other prisoners, the country stretches bar ren, devoid of comfortable shelter or clean food
 In Peking it was evident to all fx,s 4,r,N naping that the Chinese populace and government were only mildly dis turbed. Foreign officials hint that the abduction was political.

WOMEN NEED C,F,P.' DURING THE CHANGE
 WHICH AGE BRINGS
Just as Much Care Is Nec- essary Then as When Or gans Are Developing in Earlier Years.

"St. Joseph's G. F. P. was recommend ed to me as being good tonic for woman passing through the change, and I certainly needed something. I was nervous could not sleep and had no appetite. I had that dragging. don't care feeling all the time. My back and head would alm ost kill me at times" says Mrs. z. A. King of SOC Clifton Street. Conway. Ark
 But I want to tell you now I feel fine since taking G. F. P. I sleep bet ter. all that terrible nervousness is gone. the pains have stopped and I feel stronger and better in every way. want every woman going through the change of her life to know how much good this wonder full c. F. P. did for me. and I don't hesi- tate to tell everyone I meet"
 When women pass through this period in their lives it is just as important that they take every care of themselves to avoid serious consequences as it was when they were passing from girlhood into womanhood with the attendant delicate transformations which take place in their precious systems.
 St. Josephs C. F. P. is being used by thousands of women to help them safely through the change in their lives be- cause they have come to know G. F. P as their most reliable medicine for female troubles.

B|G HOME BUILDING
 CAMP PA|GN STABLE SUM ? UNLIKELY
Safe And Sound Investment Something That Will
 Keep, Says Cries
WASHINGTON. May 7-Am

WASHINGTON, May 7-American families, engag ging now in great home building campaign, are giving the present construction boom a sta bility that will help ward off a se- rious slump like that which followed the feverish building activity in 1920.
 This is the story that may be read from figures of the department of commerce, according to John M. Cries, head Of the building and trades section, who has gathered reports from all sections of the country.
 These figures show that 4S per cent of the building now going on is resi- dental construction, while in 1920, in the brisk building period that preceded the disastrous slump, only 2a Ter cent was home building, with the remainder wild campaign of business building, in preparation for rush business that never came due to the buyers strike"
 Cries estimates that during the first four months of this year s700.o00,0 900 was spent in such con- struction.
 "The very fact that such large percentage of this building is resi- dertial is healthy sign" Cries said. "A home is a safe, sound investment It's something that will keep"
 O O O
 Greatest Activity At Present
 Home building is progressing at the greatest rate in the history of the country. There were more building permits issued for residential build ing in March than for any other pre- vious month.
 Thirty mine per cent more money is being spent in building homes and apartment houses this year than in fha vi De prices of building materials are somewhat higher, this means that there is about 33 per cent more con- struction going ahead than then. This country still needs about 700, 900 homes to keep up with the increase of population, Cries estimates. At the present rate. the shortage will be made up in few years, he thinks, if serious depression does not come, which he does not expect.
 Much of this home building, of course, is supplying a shortage, Cries said. And there is not so great shortage Of business building, due tL overbuilding in 1920. However he considers a good sign of stable pros perity that people, reaping finan- cial benefit from the flow of in- creased business, are investing their money in homes where it will be safe
 good proportion of this residen- tial construction is of the better type of homes, Cries said, indicating that those lower in the scale of living are moving up a step into the houses for merly occupied by those building larger and better residences, and in that way is advancing the standard of living. He said that he hopes to see in the near future the extensive construction of modest homes to take care of many who are now living in tenements and cheap apartments.

"THAT PRESCRIPTION
 DID IT"

"A week ago l was suffering such ex cruciatng pain from neuralgia and head ache that 1 felt it would drive me crazy, I could not take aspirin or phenacetin on account of my heart. But the druggist ad- vised me to try Kozol which he said was made from splendid prescription.

 kozol can be obtained from your drug gist in tablet form. Its freedom from any unpleasant after-effects, often expe- rienced from other preparations. makes it a most desirable remedy when seeking re- lief from pain colds.-Adv.
