HOW THE PEOPLE VIEW
THE NEW PEACE LEAGUE
The out-and-out opponents of the League of Nations covenant apparently have not
been won over by the amendments adopted in Paris to meet their objections. The New
ork Tribune (Rep.) finds the '"denatured covenant" powerless for cither good or evil,
while the New York Evening Sun (Ind.) goes further and declares that "it is both an all
around invasion of sovereignty and at the same time impotent for the enforcement of
peace. In many quarters, however, it is thought that the recognition of the Monroe Doc
trine and other changes "will win for it many votes and may prove sufficient to secure its
ratification" by the Senate, to quote the Republican Philadelphia Press. It adds that the
credit for these changes is due to the constructive criticism of such Republicans as Mr. Taft,
Mr. Knox, Mr. Lodge and Mr. Root.
f>e sure and read THE LIT ERAR\ DIGEST this week. All angles of public opinion
on the League of Nations covenant are presented in the leading article. Other subjects

BULLET REMAINS
IN MILLS' BRAIN
Trial of Youths For Shooting
Gettysburg Groceryman Is j
Listed For April Court
Gettysburg, Pa., April 25. —Tho
four cases against John Miller and
tho three against Fred Moore, all
growing out of tho shooting of
Abner Mills on tho night of Febru
ary 22, will likely be disposed of
at tho regular April term of criminal
court which begins next Monday.
Moore is charged with one count less
than Miller for tho reason that
Miller has tho charge of breaking
jail against him. follownig his oscapo
from the county jail for a period of
four hours several weeks ago.
Up until now it was thought the
cases would bo continued to tho
August court, but tho decision of Mr.
Mills to have the X-ray pictures
taken, clearing away the uncertain
ty of where the bullet is lodged,
with its corresponding seriousness
on tho wounded man, has caused the
officials to allow tho case to go be
fore the court.
Mr. Mills was taken to tho Car
lisle hospital yesterday where nine
pictures were taken of his injuries,
and those show the location of the
bullet to be in the posterier portion
of the left hemisphere of the brain.
Its location is somewhat of a sur
prise, as it was not thought prob
able tliat tho bullet could enter his
left temple and go clear to the back
of his head, but that is what hap
pened. As tho bnl'et rests in that
position in the man's head and
brain it may, of course, cause se
rious results, but time alone will de
termine the degree of seriousness.
