GETTING TOGETHER TO RATIFY TREATY Twenty Opponents of Pact Ready for Compromise?Plans for White House Conference. Washington, Aug. 15.?Negotia- i tions between Democratic and Re-! \ publican senators looking to ratification of the peace treaty with reservations reached a more definite stage today while President Wilson and the foreign relations committee were getting together on unprecedented measures to give the public all the details of their discussion of the treaty next Tuesday at the White House. Democratic leaders, fueling out sentiment on the Republican side, were told that the treaty never could be ratified without qual ifications, but that ?0 Republicans wanted to see it accepted in the near future with reservations alone the lhae of those agreed on by seven sen ators of that party some days a?o. This information came frori members of the group of seven afte." com- j pletion of a poll begun Wednesday j on receipt of the first Democratic overtures. The 20 needed by the Democrats to make the necessary ratification majority of 64 had not accepted the proposed reservation I program in exact form, it was assert- j ?d but had given their assent to its i general provisions. { Hitchcock Sees President. Afterward Senator Hitchcock, the | Democratic leader, went to the White House and is understood to have laid the whole senate situation before the president. He made no formal announcement after the con- j ference but indicated that the' admin- j istration stand for unreserved rati-j fication remained unchanged. Some | of the seven reservation Republicans,! however, insists that they had had in-; formation assuring Democrtic assent to their program. A new draft of reservation was r shown to several Republicans during; P' ths day by Senator Lodge, the Re-: I publican leader. It is understood to : cover the four points embraced in j the program agreed on by the seven senators and to include also a provis-1 ion that appointment of the Ameri-1 can representative on the league1 council must have senate approval. I The other four provisions relate to | the Monroe doctrine, withdrawal from membership, jurisdiction over I j purely domestic questions and the' ^ right of congress to declare war unp der Article X of the league covenant.; Plans for the White House confer- j ence Tuesday were virtrolly com- J pleted during the day with an agree-1 ment that both White House and! | committee stenographers should be j present and that a transcript of the J * ? ? 1 J i? I discussions snomu uc issucu m . press. Chairman Lodg ealso gave his! assent to the presence of newspaper! correspondents at the meeting, but I i said that was a question for the | f president to decide. F Stenographers to Be Present. [ The proposal that stenographers fc be present! came from the president in reply to request that the committee ^members should not be restrained to secrecy about the discussions. Mr. Wilson said he would provide a! stenographer and suggested that the! committee also bring one. Chair- j ! iman Lodge said it would be done. Although it began discussion of' proposed amendments to the treaty j today, the committee decided to vote j on none of them until it had talked I with the president. There will be j I no meeting 'tomorrow and most of1 j^next week probably will be devoted Vto 'hearing the five additional wit-_ nesses summoned yesterday. The question of how soon the committee would report to the senate j ^ was one of the subjects most earn-! estly discussed in the many confer- j ences held among senators during! the day. While the Democratic leaders said they believed 20 Republicans would exert their influence for (early committee action, it was made1 clear by the reservation Republicans j that they had not promised any Re- i publican votes for a motion to take | the treaty out of the committee's ( hands. %After his White House conference ; Senator Hitchcock said the commit- j bee might report within ten days or j two weeks. He made it clear that getting the treaty into the senate as j onrvn qc rvra/vH^nhlp was the Dresent I || ov/vijl ag ?. concern of the administration. Lodge for Early Action. Chairman Lodge is understood to be in sympathy with the move for , early action by the committee and it is thought examination of witnessjes next week may be hastened and pk more called.

Much interest was manifest in the set of reservations shown to senators by Mr. Lodge. It was said he did not aggressively advocate their adoption, but merely asked the opin<* 1 J i; ion OI several senators regurujug them. It is understood they differ in phraseology from those drafted by the seven senators under the leadership of Senator McNary (Republican) Oregon, but that some of the seven were most favorably impressed by them. It was suggested that the entire reservation group might eventually substitute the reservations framed by the Republican leader for the McNary draft. Mr. McNary has not publicly committed himself, however, in favor of a reservation program as against the adoption of textual amendments to the treaty. One of the many conferences of the day was held late this afternoon at ATr T.ndcp's nffiVe and Senator McNary was present. It was said to be the fi^st time the two had gone over at length the reservation question. Afterward neither had any announcement to make. McNary and Hitchcock Confer. Senator Hitchcock also talked with Senator McNary before going to the White Housp and during the day several Republican members of the foreign relations committee went over together the senate situation. Monday the committee will hear Thomas jp . Miiiara, canea as an expert on Far Eastern affairs, and on Wednesday, unless the White House conference is continued, members will Question J. C. Ferguson, another expert on the situation in the Far East. Among the first proposed amendments to come before the committee when it takes up that subject will be a series presented today by Senator Fall of New Mexico, under which American representation would be eliminated from various international commissions which are to consider measures in Europe. CONGRESS MEMBERS SHOULD FORM UNION Thomas Facetiously Urges Strike Unless Seat Holders Receive Assurance of Reelection. Washington, Aug. 15.?Deploring the "contagion of strike disease" which he said has apparently spread throughout the world, Senator Thomas (Democrat) of Colorado, in the ? " - - .1 11 i. j.1 senate late today, suggested mat me "disease" be brought into congress, its members organize a union and refuse to legislate until conditions have been changed or at least until the members have been assured of reelection in 1920. Senator Thomas said present conditions were a "melancholy commentary when it is considered that there is more money now in circulation than ever before" and asserted that if labor conditions continue as they now are, suffering, due to reduced production, would be acute this winter. Such conditions, he added, however, can not continue and he said he would trust to the common sense of the people of this country to see that the laws were obeyed. While not contending that all labor differences now in progress throughout the country were actuated by Bolshevik doctrine, he expressed the belief that some were. Mr. Thomas called attention to the fact that policemen in Washington and other cities were forming organizations which he said might at some time prevent them from acting in cases of strikes and he said he he lieved the police :>f the country should be prevented from entering into any obligations that might handicap them in fulfilling their duty. Record Price for Booze. London, Aug. 13.? (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) ? Three silver fox skins for which $2,500 has been refused in London were obtained in Archangel for six bottles of whiskey by a British officer who has just returned from Northern Russia. Another officei traded the case of champagne for a diamond necklace said to De wortn thousands of dollars. Returning soldiers say any possession a native has may be obtained with intoxicants. The hunter who parted with his fox skins, had little pleasure out oi the whiskey, however. Immediatelj on obtaining it, he went into a room and drank it all. He was found in a serious condition and required hospital treatment to save his life. The Way of it. ''Talb-ino- nhrmf: this shortage oi coal?"It is getting to be a burning issue."

TO FOREIGNERS FORD ENGLISH SCHOOLS INCUL| CATE PRINCIPLES OF PURE AMERICANISM IN STUDENTS. TRIAL DRAWING TO A CLOSE Attorneys Begin Final Arguments After Ford Counsel Presents Dramatic Testimony On Educational Work. i i I ' Mt. Clemens, Mich.?Henry Ford's J counsel kept until the final day on j which testimony was presented, the i strongest arguments in their possession. Not until the trial was within a few hours of its close did they bring to the witness stand Clinton C. DeWitt, superintendent of the Ford English school. "Mr. Ford," said the witness, "was of the opinion that you could not sue-! 1 cessfully put over one idea while there were 62 languages spoken in the factory, so to promote that one idea, which was and is Americanism, he in | sisted that'every workman must learn i to speak the 'American'?not the English?language. "There were 3,000 students in the ; school before the United States en- j tered the war and the factory was practically turned over to government i work." Sample lessons - ere read by the ! j witness. Parts are given as follows: | . "Every good American loves and j , respects the United States Flag. ! "Our flag stands for liberty, justice ! and peace. j "Its colors are red, white and blue, j "The red stands for love, the white stands for purity, the blue stands for truth." "American flags," said the witness, "were used profusely in the school room and a silk flag always flutters before an electric fan. i J j Teach Americanism. The men are taught that there is no greater title than "American citizen" ; and are urged to accept the advant' ages of education offered by this coun- 1 ; try so that they may fit themselves, | through knowledge, to defend their j liberties. 1 I Pictures of great Americans adorn ! ; the class rooms, special exercises are J i held on the birthday of great leaders ?f n at inn onH flnftllv when the , class graduates, it is presented with souvenir American flags and is given I j membership in what is known as the j | "American Club." The Federal and state courts recognize a diploma from 1 i the Ford English school as an evi- 1 dence of adequate preparation for j 1 citizenship, it was shown. I I Through this testimony counsel sought to bring out that the man | who taught 3,000 foreigners to love their adopted country and to respect ] its flag could scarcely be called an j ; anarchist and that a man who sought every possible method to instill love for the Stars and Stripes in the hearts of those who come to it from . foreign shores, could never have 1 -a ~ nlnndanAiil! ctafilTYlante at.

Henry Ford paid the salaries of the men he loaned ; to the government for the work. Closing Arguments Open. Closing arguments in the case I opened the last of the week. Attorney i Wm. Lucking led off for Ford counsel. He called attention first to the testij mony which showed that The Tribune, ! hot for intervention in Mexico be1 cause it thought such action would ; lead to conquest or at least to great , j riches for the United States, had ! found Henry Ford blocking its patn ' just when its long campaign gave j promise of bearing fruit. Thereupon, j said the attorney, The Tribune set out to destroy Mr. Ford's influence, to ! sweep him out of its path and to still his voice which pleaded for a course 1, which would help the bleeding repub1 lie to the south to regain her feet and : to strike forth on a new highroad of ; education and freedom. i j Attorney Weymouth Kirkland open ed for The Tribune. He declared that I what Mr. Ford had done since 1916? 1 i 1j when The Tribune called him an ! anarchist?had nothing whatever to ,1. 1 do WILD, uie suuauuu a.s it wtts wwu ' j the newspaper stigmatized the manufacturer as an enemy of his country. I He did not deny that Mr. Ford had : done an immense and valuable work r for the government during the war but i he claimed that this did not alter the l facts as they were before war broke . out. Mr. Ford, the attorney insisted, was an anarchist at the time The Tribune described him as such, and i the truth he said was sufficient justifi?' cation for the attack. _ i Water and the Human Body. .!
