Jalht resolution of Repreeentattve
Mttttll for ft federal constitutional
amendment prwrldlttt equal suf
frage. Next la the bill of Repre
eeatatlve Sfeenerean, of Minnesota,
providing for Immediate return of
telegraph and telephone lines now
controlled by the Government.
la to repeal wartime prohi
bition, the luxury tax section of tho
war revenue bill and taxes on soda
fountain products went early Into
tho hopper. In some Instances
thoro were four or five bills dealing
with the same subject.
Numerous other bills would pro
vide a larger bonus for men dis
charged from military and naval
service than tho *6O set osldo undor
tho war revenue bill. Some of thosG
tlxed the amount at six months' pay
and others fixed a lump sum of
$5OO.
Prohibitory Immigration legisla
tion is embodied in a bill introduced
by Representative Lufktn, of Mas
sachusetts, who asked early con
sideration for it.
What was regarded as an out
growth of tho ratification of the pro
hibition amendment was a bill pro
posing a constitutional amendment
providing that all future amend

by referendum vote in each of
three-fourths of the States.
FOCH HAS PLAN
FOR ADVANCE IF
GERMANS BALK
Lays Proposed Military
Operations Before the
Council of Four
Parrls, Mtty 20.-—Marshal Foch has
laid before the Council of Four his
plan for military operations that are
to bo put Into effect In case the
German plenipotentiaries decline to
sign the peace treaty.
After tho conference yesterday be
tween Marshal Foch and the Coun
cil of Four, President Wilson had a
talk with Goneral Pershing. It be
camo known later that General Per
shing's visit to London may bo post
poned in order to await develop
ments.
A reply by the Allied and associ
ated governments to the German
note protesting against the economic
terms of the peace treaty as being
calculated to cause the industrial
ruin of Germany, has been delivered
to tho German peace plenipoten
tiaries.
Makes lteply to Germany
The reply is under eleven heads,
and answers each German conten
tion. It declares that tho Allied and
associated governments in framing
tho economic terms "had no Inten
tion to destroy Germany's economic
life."
On the contrary, the report points
out that in the reconstruction of
tho world's affairs, Germany will
have her part In the progressive
development, but also will sharo with
the rest of tho world in tlio econ
omic losses and disadvantages in
evitably resulting from the war.
Tho reply declares that the Ger
man noto fails to tako Into consid
eration tho fact that tho disarma
ment of Germany and the end of
militarism will relieve the German
people of an immense burden of
taxation and return to the ranks of
useful production, Ullons of men
formorly In the army, who have been
entirely wfthdrawn from Industrial
or agricultural activity.
Must Sharo Losses
Tho reply also makes an emphatic
rojoindor to the German complaint
that the loss of the German inoreh
ant marine will throw out of work
thousands of German merchant sea
men. The Allies answer is that the
destruction of merchant ships, chief
ly by German submarines, has had
the unfortunate effect of limiting the
opportunities of seamen throughout
the world, the Allied powers being
(lie greatest sufferers. It adds that
Ihore clearly is no reason why Ger
many should be exempted from its
share of tho economic disadvantage
growing out of this destruction of
merchant ships.
The reply on the economic objec
tions is regarded as one of the best
documents in the exchange of notes.
Many persons attribute it to Presi
dent Wilson.

June 12 and June 19 Are
Possible Adjournment Days
Members of the House of Repre
sentatives were to-day inclined to
press the Senators for concurrence in
the .resolution to fix June 19 as the
I date for adjournment. The Senate
last night sent tho resolution to
committee, as soon as it was receiv
ed from the lower branch and the
leaders want to think it over for a
while.
Some of the Senators are said to
be willing to agiee on June 12, as
favored by many of the rural mem
bers, but it all depends upon the
Philadelphia bills, which are being
given their final hearing to-day.
Best estimates are that it will be
Decoration Day before the Philadel
phia bills are disposed of.

Rear Admiral Albert Ross, who built ;
the Great Lakes Naval Training Sta
tion. said to be the greatest of its kind
in the world, is visiting in this city with
his sister. Mrs. John Patrick, 817 North
Second street. He was called from re
tirement when the United States entered
the war in order to take charge of the
nation's naval training activities.
The men who entered the Navy during
the war were of the highest class ever
included in it. Admiral Ross declares.
"Nearly all of them were college or
high school and they were
first-class men, physically, morally and
mentally."
Admiral T.oss inspected a total of 234.-
000 men preparing for naval duty In
1918, in addition to visiting 92 colleges
where naval training activities were in
progress. "Right now. the Navy's job
is demobilization of 300,000 reserves and
the listing of 200,000 regulars to replace
them," he said.
Admiral Ross. TO years old, has served
B4 years with the United States Navy
and was the commander of the Great
Lakes Naval Training Station following
his construction of it. During the Span
ish American "War he served as com
mander of the sloop-of-war. Alliance.
In the Civil War he was in attendance
at the United States Naval Academy and
did some fighting of privateers off the
coast of Florida. He has been in charge
of the Culver summer naval school for
several years and will return to it for
the summer after reporting to the Naval
Department in Washington.

REVISED LEAGUE
UNACCEPTABLE,
DECLARES LODGE
New Covenant Worse Than
Old, Says Republican
Leader
By Associated Press.
Washington, May 20.—Senator
Lodge, Republican leader and chair
man of the foreign relations com
mittee. In a new statement declares
that the revised League of Nations
"la unacceptable" and predicted it
would not be accepted by the ma
jority of the Senate without amend
ment.
Characterizing the new league
covenant as included in the peace
treaty as "distinctly worse than the
old and more dangerous to the
peace of the world and to American
rights and interests," Senator
Lodge declared that one of the sug
gestions from the Senate or from
Elihu Root had been carried out.
Senator Lodge's statement fol
lows In part:
"So far as I can judge—and I
have had conversations with many
Senators, including members of both
parties—l am satisfied that a ma
jority of the Senate feel very stong
ly that the league as now present
ed must receive amendment, that
in its present form, without anv
change, it is unacceptable and would
' not be accepted.
"To say that the amendments put
' forward In the Senate and those
proposed and formulated by Mr.
Root on the suggestion of the State
Department have been met Is with
out any foundation. Not one of
the suggestions of the Senate, not
one of the amendments proposed
by Mr. Root, has been carried out.
Some have been entirely rejected,
and where there is an appearance
of their having been adopted ex
amination shows that the new form
is distinctly worse than the old.
"As to the League of Nations, the
American people must know just
what are to be asked to agrfee to.
By that league they are invited to
take the gravest steps ever taken
by the United States and no organ
ized clamor, no manufactured pres
sure of any kind will swerve the
Senate from its high duty of lay
ing before the American people ex
actly what the league involves and
what it means to the United States,
and to the future peace of the
world."
German People Refuse
to Mourn Peace Terms
Paris. May 20. The week of
mourning in Germany decreed by
the government because of the terms
of the peace theaty appears to have
met with little success. The Ger
man musicians in particular seem to
be resentful over the order as a
measure which prevented them from
earning their daily bread, while the
Taeglische Rundschau and the Ber
lin Tageblatt admit that the mourn
ing was far from being completely
effective.
Reports are that nearly all the
music halls remained open and that
in some places the people danced all
night. One bit of pungent comment
comes from the Volksblatt, of Halle
which says
"It is not now, but on August 1,
1914, that general mourning should
have been ordered in Germany."
