Paris, June 19. (By A. P.) The
Council of Foreign Ministers has under
consideration a plan for an interallied
commission to administer the Baltic
part of Danzig, through which Poland
has been gWen an outlet to the sea.
While planning to have Danzig ad
ministered ultimately by the league of
nations, the council is likely to- give
tha Poles the maximum liberty of no
tion on the question ot the Ukrainian
boundary, according to the Echo de
Paris,
The council, it Is added, also is con

"The round robin should have been
sufficient and needed no supplement by
this resolution." he continued. "This
resolution is intended to be embarras

Pointing out thnt the Knox resolu
tion was preceded by virtual unanimous
adoption by the Senate of the Rorah
resolution requesting a hearing at the
Peace Conference for representatives of
the so-called Irish republic, Senator
Thomas said :
"The effect of that resolution alone
was embarrassing to our delegation. It
is in direct conflict with the principles
of the Knox resolution.

Washington, June 10. The Senate
yesterday volet! against repealing the
wartime prohibition act, and as a res-nit
the nation will become "bone dry"
at midnight on June 30.
The vote against the repeal of the
dry measure was fi." to 11, and was
taken when Senator Phelan tried to at
tach tlie repealer to the agricultural ap
propriation hill as a rider.
The vote was taken on a motion by
Senator Grunun, to lay on the table a
motion by Senutor Phelan to suspend
the rules of the Senate so that he could
offer the repealer as an amendment to
the agricultural bill.
Senator Phelan hist night said thnt he
will not drop his fight to have the pro
hibition act repealed so far as it
affects the sale of light wines and beers,
but that he will work for the passage
of his repealing resolution, which is now
before the Senate judiciary committee.
The vote on his attempt yesterday,
however, showed that the prohibition
forces control the United States Senate
by a sunstuntlal majority, and that they
can defeat any effort to delay the
nation-wide drought nutil January 10,
30UO, when the national prohibition
amendment to the federal constitution
goes into effect.

Denial Is Made
The assertion has been made re
peatedly that members who oppose the
loan either in Common or Select Coun
cil will fail to figure in the final dis
position of improvements. This is
denied by officials of the Department of
Public Works who declare the improve
ments will first be apportioned with a
view to aiding building operations and
next with a view to the most urgent
needs of certain localities. Action along
these lines is promised by Chester 13.

Mrs. Wightman Says Lobster
and French Pastries Are Bad
for Training
TO PLAY MISS BJURSTEDT
Lobsters a la Ncwburg, French pas
tries and midnight frolics do not go
hand-In -hand with tennis champion
ships, necording to the bevy of renowned
women experts who arc now playing off
the thirty-second annitnl women's lawn
tennis championships tournnment nt the
Philadelphia Cricket Club.
"Oh, dear, I'm too fat to be a real
athlete. Please do ask the others what
they do to keep fit."
The bystanders smiled indulgently ns
Mrs. George Wightman, of the Long
wood Cricket Club; Boston, Hushed nnd
warm from n successful mulch, made
this plea. Ah Miss Hazel llotchklss
she won the national title three times,
and she lias come back into singles this
year, after several years' absence, with
such a clear "tennis bend" and such
splendid work thnt she is expected to
regain her title this season
She will contest the title with Miss
Molln Bjurstedt, the present chnmpion.
"It was ten years ago, before I was
married, that I first won Hie national
title," snid Mjrs, Wightman. "Then I
won several things after that. But I
dropped out after I was married and
didn't re -enter till 11)1.". Then It was
only to play in the doubles. But 1
love singles and I felt 1 might get back
Into tlicni this year.
Children and Tennis Her Sports
'It is pretty hard to keep yourself '
athletic when you have three perfectly
adorable children to train, and I con
fess they give me a good ileal of exer
cise, I don't indulge in other sports
because I haven't time Tennis and the
children occupy my time and give me
pretty fair training.
"Of course, I'm careful of what I
eat. No foolish, rich food is included
on my menus when it is tennis season.
And I am careful to get plenty of sleep.
It is rather cas In take these precau
tions because Mr. Wightman plays, too,
and we train together. My worst worry
is that I am getting too fat."
Mr. Wightman said he worried mort
during the tennis tournaments than all
the rest of the year put together, he is
bo eager for his wife to win nil the
honors she sets out to get.
Mrs. Wightman looked diminutive and
lithe as she stood in her tennis shoes
beside her tall husband. Perhaps f feet
f! inches in height and weighing about
1P,0, she was sun-browned and muscular.
Laughing nnd happy she was n prime
Cuvorite about the courts. She was clad
in navy blue sweater, white skirt and
soft gray sports hat. On the court she
darted to nnd fro with an ease and
sureness, serving nnd returning balls
with an ability that brought cheers fre
tjuently from the spectators.
.Miss Bjurstedt is Boyish
Tlie boyish-looking Molln Bjurstedt
won her share of plaudits, too. Her
dark, bobbed hair was tied back with a
narrow brow ribbon nnd she wore a
dark brown jersey over the short white
skirt. Her face, throat and arms were
almost as brown ns tlie sweater. Every
mite of her, body and heart, was iu
the game ns she played.
Tliere was something boyish in the
way she swung the racket and placctl
the bnlls in unexpected" corners of her
opponent's court. And there was a
clear boyishness in her manner of fling
ing off the praise and congratulations
thnt greeted her when the game was
finished.
Miss Marian Zinderstein, of Boston,
and Miss Kleanor Goss, of the West
Side Tennis Club of Xew York, na
tional doubles champions, arc both of
the tall, slender type. Any one would
recognize what Miss Zinderstein her
self claims, that nothing ever "fusses"
her.
The short white skirts nnd the glo
riously bright sweaters nnd sport coats
of the women players made n colorful
picture on the smooth sod courts today.
Hundreds of spectators, men and
women, also in gay sport clothes, sit
ting on verandas and steps of the club
house or scattered about the lawn on
chairs and benches, added to the beauty
of the scene and lent eager enthusiasm
to cheer the players.

Most Anxious for Retention of
Federal Employment Bu
reau for Soldiers
OWE THEM MUCH, HE SAYS
"Break, break, break on thy cold gray
stones, Oh sea.
But I would that my soul could utter,
the thoughts that arise In me."
Major General Wood modi' reference
to these lines of Tennyson here today
shortly after his arrival for the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania firnduntion ex
ercises when asked what he thought of
the conditions now existing in Europe.
"It is really impossible for me to
say anything on war or peace now," be
said.
Asked concerning booms for him for
the presidency, General Wood said that
he had been talked about for political
positions for twenty years and that the
present booms were nothing new. Gen
eral Wood, however, gave out no hint
ns to whether he would be n candi
date. "What I am most anxious for," ho
said, "is the retention of the federal
employment bureau for soldiers. This
bureau exists now, I am told, only in
skeleton form, due to lack of funds.
Everything possible should be done to
keep this bureau up to the highest
point of efficiency."
General Wood paid a high tribute to
the volttntiiry organization that are at
present nssisting the returning service
men in ohtnining positions, and declared
that tills work was of paramount im
portance. ''Our debt to the soldiers," be said,
"will not have been paid until every
soldier, sailor nnd marine is in a po
sition which is commensiirnte with his
abilities."
"lias Bolshevism hnd any effect on
the American troops returning from
France?" General Wood was asked.
"Absolutely not," he replied. "Our
troops nre returning home as sound ns a
whistle. Their morale is most excel
lent." URGES SUN BATHING
Practice Has Curative' Value, Says
Phlladelphlan at Convention
Asbury Park, N. .1., junc 10.
Solarizntion, or "sun bathing," of the
nude body was declared to have decided
curative and prophylactic value by
Professor Ralph Iiernstein, of Hahne
mann Medical College, of Philadelphia,
in an address here yesterday before the
convention of the Nntionnl Institute of
Homeopathy.
Doctor Iiernstein said that a poll ot
the. physicians and surgeons attending
the convention here showed n large per
centage in favor of tlnylight saving.
"Sunlight is the poor man's ultra-violet
ray," he declared. "The opportunity
given workers to be longer outdoors in
the sunlight undoubtedly has had a
beneficial effect on health."
The homeopathic treatment hnd pro
duced better results ami been followed
by less mortality than any other treat
ment during the recent influenza epi
demic was the, declaration of delegates.
German propaganda in behalf of
building up a drug business in this
country had dulled the sensibilities of
the nation to an extent that It had
used more aspirin than was good, ac
cording to a paper rend before the con
vention. "A bone-dry nnti-Teutonic drug
prohibition is certainly in order."

Twining Itegiets Defeat
Prior to Senator Vnre's nttnek onV
the senior I'uitetl States senator for the)
defeat of the Stilus bill, Director of City
Transit Twining expressed bis keen dis
appointment over the bill's fate.
He said transit bills have not been
given a square ileal in the Legislature
in the last two sessions. The method
chosen to defeat the bill, he said, did
not cast any credit on those responsible.
Tlie transit problem, Director Twin
ing continued, constitutes one of the
biggest problems facing the new city
Council. The city now, he said, has
no alternative but to go ahead and
complete the "original unlcnsablc plan"
for which it is estimated $12.",000,000
v. ill be required. The effect of this huge
be required. The effect of this huge
investment, he added, must result iu
higher carfare or increased taxes.
