(By A. P.)"Jt will be a pretty tough Job for this country to negotiate n new treaty with Germany, but that Is just what it will mean It the treaty before the Senate , is textual!? changed," said Senator Hitchcock, administration leader, today at his summer homo here. "Instead of a treaty imposed by mili tary force." said the senator, "wc shall have to make such a treaty as Ger many Is willing to sign, and we shall lose the advantages of the imposed treaty." ' In discussing the situation with the President yesterday. Senator Hitchcock said this point was brought up, and the President laughingly remarked he might send Senators Lodge and Knox, chief opponents of ratification, to Germany to negotiate n new treaty. "He said this," the senator said, "by way oT illustrating what n tough job it would be." Joint Committee Is Urged Abandon Wheat Price Regulation to U. S. AGENTS PROFITEERS? Washington, Aug. in. A. M. Loomis, n representative of the national grange, tola tlic House and Senate agricultural committees the farmers of the country were alarmed over the trend of proposed federal legislation, adding that in view of the President's attitude toward agriculture as indicated in his veto message on the bill repealing the daylight-saving act, the farmers felt "something must be done to balance the situation." Mi. Loomis made o number of sug gestions as to "proposed legislation to counteract the influence of the present agitation nnd thereby increase food pro duction." They Included: Abandonment of wheat price regula tion nnd all price-fixing on any primary food or clothing materials at the end of the present crop season. Immediate termination of all restric tions nnd regulations based on war powers of Congress. Hcmovnl of all internal revenue taxes on food products. Revision of tariffs schedules to af ford protection for farm products equal to protection of manufactured products. The defining of the constitutional power of Congress to deal with hoard ing, conspiracies and combinations to advance prices of necessaries. J. D. Miller, of Susquehanna, repre senting the Nntional Board of Farm Organizations, told of prosecutions of farmer organizations in Ohio nnd Illi nois under state nnti-tcust laws and charged that there was "veiled propa ganda" throughout the country to place the blame for high prices upon tho farmer. Profiteers In Department? Evidence at a secret investigation of the purchase of beans for the food ad- ministrntion during the war so incensed Julius H. Barnes, of New lork, prcsi dent of -the United States Grain Cor poration, that he forced two employes of tho administration to resign, the com mitteo was told by G. A. Turner, president of the California Bean Grow ers' Association. Asked if it was not true that the two men "had been profiteering u little in beans," Mr. Turner said that in view of the fact that the investigation was sec ret he preferred not to say what the findings were. Tho names of the men were not dis closed. Mr. Turner said, however, that ho believed the evidence taken during the investigation was in the hands of the Department of Justice, Mr. Turner said more than $1,000,- 000 worth of Oriental beans were pur chased, and that Oriental peas also were bought by the food administration. The witness denied there was a scar city of beans in this country at thi time, und said there was no reason for prevailing high prices. Farmers Present Case "I'nless capitalistic monopoly" and organized labor "cease profiteering in goods nnd wages" the next cycle of the seasons will effect a condition of living now undreamed of, the comittees were told by J. II. Howard, president of the Iowa l'lirm Bureau Federation Mr. Howard appeared as spokesman for the committee recently appointed at n conference of farmers from Iowa, Nebraska, Indiana, Ohio and Illinois. Denying farmers were responsible for present conditions, Mr. Howard said "The high cost of living is not due to lack of desire or effort on the part of farmers to produce to the limit of their physical ability. The farmer has not Struck, walked out, or otherwise slackened in production. He hns in creased his effort, extending his opera tions to the limit of physical ability and financial credit, and striven to feed the world, believing the world would fairly and gladly recompense him. "Instead, he finds those who, in their eagerness to find an answer where there is none, and to shun the real facts of the situation, point to him with scorn and malevolence, Raying, 'Thou art the culprit.' " Kansas City. Mo., Aug. 10. (By A. P.)

R., Aug.. 10. Elnlmrnte preparations for the reception of the Prince of Wales, who Is expected to reach here, on board the cruiser Dragon tomorrow, were completed today. The official greetings of the city nnd prov ince will not be extended until Monday, but it is believed the royal visitor will come ashore to view nearby places of interest Sunday afternoon. Soon after his arrival the prince will resume his quarters on board the bat tleship Renown, on which he oamo over seas and which preceded him from St. John's, N. F. He will ntend divine service aboard that ship. Prominent citizens from all parts of Canadn have already come here for the reception. - St. John, N. B.. Aug. 10. The Prince of Wales sailed from here for Halifax at 7 o'clock this morning on the cruiser Dragon. The cruiser Daunt less also sailed as escort. When the Prince of Wales set foot on Canadian soil yesterdny morning for the first time, landing at St. John, the peo ple crowded every available foothold to see him pass up the flag-decked streets. The prince's boyishness and genuine good nature won the hearts of the popu lace nnd tremendous cheers went up. He smiled bashfully in acknowledging the plaudits, evidently surprised at being welcomed so heartily. Before tho visitor landed crowds continued to pack the streets. Men and women thrilled ns the gallant Fighting Twenty-sixth," Canada x battered and torn unit that fought in virtually every heavy battle on the Frenrh front, swung around into po sition as a guard of honor. The scene on the quay was pictur esque and stirring. With the soldiers of the guard, had been gathered a group of school children in white, carrying flags: As the prince stepped forth these children let loose their cheering with a will. The grandstand in which they stood became a fluttering ntass of flags, and from this flro of color tho cheering spread until all the town seemed to be swelling the shouting. It was raining. but no rnin could dampen tho enthu siasm with which they sang "God Bless the Prince of Wales." Before the singing ended charming maidens in white costumes nnd bearing shields representing the provinces of Canada came forward nnd curtsied to the prince, nnd as they fell back took up a position in an attractive group. It was a delightful picture and there was no doubt about the prince's pleasure. Then as the prince drove off the chil dren gave vent to their enthusiasm again, and went on with it long nfter he had disappeared from sight. Million Weekly for Idle Actors ronrlnnrd From race One shouts of "You're right. We'll stand by you." "Come down here every day nnd we won't have to go to the show," snid a broker, who was evidently a first nighter. "You can just bet we will," said Gladys. Kate Claxton JWins Applause A storm of applause greeted the ven erable Kate Claxton, whose name was for years n household word. A hush fell over the crowd as she spoke. Tears glistened in the eyes of many as she reviewed the fight of the actor. Force was given her argument for the reason that she did not speak vindictively. She spoko in the kindest terms of the man agers, and expressed tho belief that pthey would see the justivc of the claim made by the men and women of the stage. The sentiment of Wall street is a sample of that all along the business artery of Broadway to Sixty-fifth street. Looking at tho controversy from an unbiased standpoint, any one who bases opinions on results will say that the actors have the edge on the managers. Bird's Eye View of Broadway Hero is a brief glance of the situa tion at the present status of the strike: Eleven Broadway shows have closed. A few productions are playing with patched-up casts. The Actors' Equity Association has increased in membership from 4000 to 6000 since the strike started. Three thousand of these were at the actors' meeting at Hotel Astor. Two new shows of Broadway pio ducers, scheduled to appear at out-of-town places for try-outs, failed to open. Twenty thousand soldiers of camps near New York and many philanthropic organizations have promised to support the nctors and are already helping. Scores of business concerns in tho thentrlcal district haye agreed to give the actors 10 per cent of their gross receipts weekly. veral persons, including authors, scent slim royalties, appointed themselves mediators in the present controversy and asked the managers to meet representatives of the Actors' Equity Association. This gave rise to the rumor that the actors were seeking a compromise. No Thought of Compromise Incidentally, the well-meaning au thors only befuddled matters. Officials of the actors' organization declared that no one had been authorized to represent them in any so-called mediation pro ceedings. The big response of organized labor in the nctors' strike was due largely to the efforts of Ed Wynn, the star of many Broadway productions. In an exclusive statement to a rep restative of the Evejhnq Podlio Lkoqeh, Wynn announced that the Airmrlpiin Vedorntlnn nf T.nlmr wna nv. rantine n ulnn through which one mil lion dollars would be paid to the nc- tors weekly during the strike. "Ibis will be done," said Wynn, "by assessing members twenty-fivn cents weekly. I received exactly 181 tl. grams' Vquchiug support from unions in U Hirt p tis ffiujatr I sjjut 12 telegrams to union leaders today and expects to have answers from all be fore midnight. This is only one source of revenue. Wnn's View of Strike When it was suggested that the man ngers might nlso he well equipped finan cially to keep up the light, Wynn snid, "the managers have in their organiza tion, Including producers nnd financial backers, about fifty persons. To coun teract our ouo million a week, obtained at the rate of twentj-hve cents peri person, the malingers would hae to as sess rnch of their members $20,000 dol lars weekly. In view of these figures, who will last the longest?" Contributions nmounting to nearly S10.000 were received today by the ac tors' association from various sources. (If these, $.rv000 was given by nctors themselves. The Los Angeles. Cnlif.. Stagehands' Local sent $1000.

THEATRES OFFER NEW CONTRACTS New York. Aug. 10. Following a penre nlssion undertaken by H. II. Sntliern's trained band of mediators paved the way for a break in the dead lock thnt has boon turning Broadway for n week into n theatrical No Man's Land. The Producing Managers' Association, following a conference with M'r. Soth ern's armistice commission, which dis claimed oflicinl connection with either side, decided to offer to the striking nctors n contract modelled on the lines of the L'quity instrument. It was not to be called, however, the contract of the Actors' Equity Associa tion, which Samuel Untermyer, ap pointed chief counsel for the Equity, had declared the actors were justified in brejiking during the strike because tho managers repudiated the arbitration clause. The managers resolved to offer the olive branch of arbitration with a boajd which it was to help choose. which it was possible for the Equly injc Though no formal statement was is sued by the P. M. A. Immediately after the conference, Arthur Hopkins, who has acted as herald for the managers in many past statements, snid thnt an agreement hnd been reached in offer ing to "individual actors" a contract granting an eight performance week, with extra performances paid for pro rata. Also, Mr. Hopkins said, the managers were willing to submit other questions fo arbitration by a joint board, who would chooso a neutral um pire, each side selecting its own rep rcsontnthes. "We're not offering this contract to striking actors," said Mr. Hopkins, "but to nctors who are out of work." "Would it bo possible for the Equity to choose the actors' representatives on the arbitration board?" he was asked by one of the publicity pundits. "While I can't speak nuthoritatioly for the other managers," Mr.- Hopkins snid, "it is my personal opinion that I think they would leave that matter open." s SPEED UP CHICAGO THEATRES' SUIT Actors Violation of Armistice Stirs Court to Action Chicago, Aug. 10.-(By A. P.) Following a conference of nttorneys and principals today. Judge Walker directed Master in Chancery Sigmund Zeisler to proceed without further delay the hearing of testimony nnd arguments in the injunction suits filed in behalf of the Chicago theatres against the Equity Association of Actors and Artist's. Efforts of Edward N. Nockels, sec retary of the Chicago Federation of Labor, who is at present in charge of the fight for the nctors, to close two more theatres, the Colonial and Woods, in violation of the terms of the armi stice, led to the appeal to Judge Walker for relief. Counsel for the theatres accused the actors' organization of bad faith and insisted thnt the agreement to halt hos tilities pending a decision on the in junction suits be adhered to. The hear ing before the master in chancery had been set for next Monday morning. Judge Walker ordered tlio stipulation entered into by both sides several dajs ago to suspend further strikenctivlties pending the outcome of the injunction suits be made a part of the record in the case. Under this nction actors who strike In violation of this stipulation may be prosecuted for contempt of court and Ada Meado and Ann Warrington, of tho "Angel Face" company nt Colonial Theatre, who walked out last night, will bo required to return to work. Announcement from tho Grand that a new show would be put on means that the striking actors in "A Prince There Was," with Crant Mitchell &t their head, are out of jobs, no matter whether the strike is settled or not.

In addition, he kept his own gov ernment informed of the developments in Mexico and, acting solely ns a me dium of communication without ollicinl authority, delivered protests against the mistreatment of British individuals and corporations wherever these seemed to be necessary.

Interest in the Senate treaty fight was divided today between the hitest turn of the negotiations over reservations and the forthcoming White House confer ence between President Wilson and the foreign relations committee Although administration leaders con tinued to stand for unreserved ratifica tion of the treaty, the group of reserva tion Itepublicans in negotiation with them said there was no doubt thnt tho reservation program would have Demo crntic support. Members of this group also have said that at least the twenty Itepublicans needed tn insure the treaty's ratification had signified their willingness to accept the general pro visions ot this program. Meantime, a new draft of reservation! was being shown Itepublican senators by Republican Leader Lodge.

The Commonsense Heating System If you consider simplicity, economy and healthfulness, you will find the Novelty Pipeless Heater by far the most common sense method of heating your home. No pipes, no flues just one big register in the floor of your hallway. Through this comes a constant stream of fresh, clean, moist air. Into every nook and corner of the house it goes, making an even, delightful temperature everywhere. As the hot air rises, the colder air is forced down through the house into the heater again. This gives constant circulation the most healthful , kind of heating. The Novelty Pipeless Heater delivers more heat with less fuel than any other heating method. It requires little attention and because of its FLEX-O-TUF cast iron construction it will last a life time.
