FOURTEEN REPUBLICjlNS BOLT

Democrats Opposed It
Washington. — The long debated
Shangtung amendment to the' peace
treaty, presented by Senator Lodge
and approved by the foreign relations
committee, Anally was rejected in the
senate with a majority of an even
score agajnst it. -
In the vote of 35 to 55, 14 Republi
cans swung over to the pro-treaty
forces while three Democrats lined up
with those supporting the proposal.
Of the six senators absent, two repub-
ttcans were put on record as in favor
of tha amendment and one Republican
and three Democrats as opposing it
The roll call, which came at the
end of another six ahd a half hours
of sharp debate, in reality swept
away sjx amendments instead of one,
each change in the treaty text having
been numbered separately by the
committee in its decision to strike out
the word "Japan” and substitute tha
“China” throughout the sections ra-
lating to the province of Shangtung.
By unanimous consext, however, the
six changes were debated and voted
on aa one.
Only three of the committee’s 45
amendments now remain to be acted
on by the senate, 36 previously hav
ing been rejected. Of those remain
ing, one relates to American repre
sentation of the reparations commis
sion, and two to equalisation of vot
ing power in the league of nations
assembly.

factory day.” * ■

PROGRESS OF THE PRESIDENT
Washington.—Having obtained r«
lief from the prostratic condition
which retarded his recovery last weel
President Wilson was the , victim o
slight digestive trouble. His conditioi

was unchanged.
Dr. Grayson issued the followini
bulletin from the white house:
“The president had a slight digest
ive disturbance today. Otherwise hit
condition is unchanged.”
ANTI-STRIKE PROVISIONS IN
RAILROAD BILL DRASTIC
Washington.—Containing one of th«
most drastic anti-strike provisioni
ever approved by a senate committee,
the Cummins railroad bill virtually
ready to be offered to the senate.
The interstate commerce committee
went event further than the original
bill and added an amendment which
will make it a crime to •aid, abet,
counsel, command or Induce” railroad
employers to strike.
It’s harvest time. The sr^wy cotton is being
gathered and the golden corn garnered. The
farmers are exchanging the products of their
fields for the coin an currency of the republic.
Some will pay their bills in cash and carry home
their surplus money to be kept in more or less
insecure places. The farmer who is a business
man deposits his money in the bank, pays his
bills with checks and has no . worry as to the
security of his surplus. The farmer who does
this and establishes a business standing at a bank
has no difficulty in securing a loan when he
needs one. This bank makes a specialty of giv
ing satisfactory service to farmer customers and
invites the accounts of farmers who have not
been in the habit of handling their funds thru
a bank. The farmer who does so never regrets
making the change from the unbusinesslike cus
tom of the many farmers who do not have
checking accounts. Take our advice, Mr. Far
mer. It’s good advice.
