We want to do something for the betterment of our race. Let us give thanks to God for our being able to be here. We are here on the King's business, and we should not treat it lightly, for it calls for thought, for our very best. Will we do our duty? God grant."

JOHNSON—In sweet remembrance of my dear daughter, Susie Johnson, who fell asleep in Jesus one year ago May 2, 1919.
I miss thy kind and loving hands

Newport News, Va., May 14.—The Orders of K, of P, and Courts of Calanthe in Newport News are vicing with each other in hustling for new members in the great campaign rally in Virginia which ends at the Grand Session in Norfolk for the prize winners and the keenest interest is felt everywhere.

MRNATE ADOPTS PEACE PLAN BY
VOTE OF 43 TO 38.
Knox Resolution Prevails by an Aimless Exact Party Division.
Acceptance There Is Assured, but Veto by President Is Equally Contain
Washington, May 15,—By a vote of 43 ayes to 38 noes the Senate adopted this afternoon the Knox resolution declaring peace with Germany and Austria, substituting it for the resolution previously adopted by the House of Representatives. All the affirmative votes were by Republicans except those of Senators Walsh, (Mass.) Road (Mo.,) and Shields (Tenn.), Democrats. All the negative votes were by Democrats except that of Senator Nelson (Minn.) Republican. Senator McCumber (N. C.) Republican, announced however, that had he not been paired and unable to vote he would have voted against the resolution.
The resolution must now go to the House, where it probably will be accepted after some formal consideration, and then sent to President W. Johnson, whose spokesman have stated positively he will veto it. It probably will not pass over the veto. Expectations is that the President will return the treaty to the Senate simultaneously with the submission of the veto message, or very soon there after. The Senate in that event will refer the treaty to its Foreign Relations Committee, which will pigeon hole it until after the election in November.
Briefly, the Senate resolution repeals the declarations of war against Germany and Austria; provides for restoring German property now held by the Alien Property Custodian until Germany shall be treaty have provided for satisfaction of all American claims against Germany and unitt Germany shall have given most favored nation treatment to Americans as to business, residence, commerce &c., and shall have confirmed to the United States, all fines, penalties, &c. levied by the United States during the war. The date of the resolution becoming effective shall be the legal date of the end of the war. All rights are advantages that would have been edited to the United States under the treaty of Versailles if it had been ratified, are insisted upon.
DEBATE LARGELY FORMAL.
The Senate voted on the resolution at the end of four hours debate, carefully devoted to Democratic opposition to it. It was on the whole rathdrum or a formal debate lacking the acridity that had characterized some previous phases of the discussion. Senator Pomerene (Ohio), Democrat, spoke first.
"This is not an attempt to end the war," he said, "it is an attempt by legislation to create a treaty. Congress was given power under the Constitution to make war, not to make peace. The broad power to negotiate peace was conferred on the President. We propose by this resolution to accept the benefits of the treaty, the obligations of which we refuse."
"We are not accepting the benefits" said Senator Knox (Pa.) "We are simply refusing to waive them."
By this resolution, Mr. Pomerene resumed, "It is asserted we are going to bring about peace, yet we propose to hold the German people's property in this country.
What's the matter with that? demanded Senator Reed (Mo.) Suppose it is put just as badly as the Senator has stated it—what is wrong with it?
"I decline,' replied Mr. Pomerene "to be put in the position of contending we are making peace and yet holding property which was seized because we were at war. If we should retain the German property after terminating the war who would determine its disposition, or the disposition of property of Americans in Germany."
ALL RESTRICTIONS BY PRESIDENT
Senator Reed contended that America is now trading with Germany to the extent of $145,000,000 annually, and Senator Pomerene said he under stood that to be the case. "It is only a medicine of our normal trade, how ever" argued the Ohioan. "All reservations on German trade have been put on by the Executive," said Senator Reed.
I suppose so, conceded Senator Pomerene.
They could be removed on a moment's notice by the President, said Senator Reed.
The restrictions were imposed by the President under authority of Congress, insisted Mr. Pomerene. If we adopt this resolution we shall ignore everything done by the Executive in bringing about peace, and by the Allies in order that we may make a separate peace. I will wish to stand by the Allies in the war and should be ashamed to deter them now.
Didn't we stand by the Africa unit
they got their peace on the land?
Imaqi demanded Mr. Dood. Isn't
all right for us to get our money now we
are it?
We replied Senator Pompeo. The
Senator and I are too few to accept your
discussion along with Smith. If
NEW INVENTION—SAVES 50 PER CENT. ON KUBL HILLS 1.1
A GREAT INVENTION, A GENUINE BENEFIT TO ALL HUMANITY
It did not seem possible when we were first told that men could fly in the air like birds. We could not believe that a machine had been made that could talk with the voice of a human being. 25 years ago few people ever thought that some day we would be able to talk around the world without the use of telegraph wires. We know now that those things can be done, for we have to believe what we see.

Congress adopts this resolution and it is disapproved by the White House, as it certainly will be, what will be gained? Nothing, except that our friends on the other side will say: 'We put the President in a hole.' We are not going to do that. The American people know where the treaty making power is.
The President ought to send the treaty back with some willing looking to an adjustment of differences. The Senate is partly in blame and the Office Executive not entirely free from blame for the ineffectual status of prosecutions."

VUE BBBING POLITICAL TIDE,
In view of the address made in
this city recently by Vice-President
‘Thomas IR. Marshall, there can no
longer be any doubt but that disting-
uished Indianian and Prosident Wood-
row Wilson are as far apart as the
poles on the questions vitally affect:
ing tho interests of the American
people. Ho appealed for a return to
weanic laws of the nation, opposed
teaesference of powers to Washing:
tan and called upon the leaders to
Fe Up ang become the advocates
ud promoters of American thought
‘This is a “direct slap" at the advo:
caivd policies of the occupant of tho
White House. 1 emphasizes the tact
too ns to why President Wilson tool
pains to transfor the White House,,
80 to speak to Paris and why he de
ctined to permit Vice-President Mar
shall to discharge any of the duties
in connection with the prestdential
office. There can hardly bo any qoubt
but what Vice Prosident Marshall is
light in the position he has taken.
Certain it is, that ho is in possession
vt suMoiont hack-bone to give expres:
sion to them.
‘This has caused some of his admir-
ers to talk loudly of him as a candt-
ele for future presidential honors.
Tt seems too that Senator Hoke
Smith “builded better than he knew"
in his position upon the Versailles
Breaty and the League of Nations.
“0 first reports sent out trom

SENATE ADOPT'S PEACE PLAN BX
VOTE OF 43 TO 38.
(Continued from Second Page)
minated the war with Germany. After
er many months debate the Senate
was unable to reach a conclusion on
retification. Then the majority party
took the responsibility of returning
the treaty to the President with
out either amendment or suggested
amendment. In that way the treaty
was rejected by the majority party in
so far as it was possible for them to
do so, and when they returned it to
the President with all its intact they
confessed that they had rejected it,
whether they meant to do so or not.
In the circumstances it could not be
expected that the President would
proceed further with the negotiations
unless it be indicated to him that
some amendments would be agreed to
which were satisfactory to him and
such suggestion was made.
If it was the purpose merely to reject the League of Nations and procure ratification of the peace it was in the power of the Senate's majority to amend the treaty by striking out all clauses relating to the covenant of the league and ratifying the rest. If that had been done all there is in this resolution would have been accomplished and more because the German Government is a party to this treaty only so far as the terms of peace and not in relation to the League of Nations. The opportunity of acceptance or rejection of that plan was not presented to the president. The party in control, when it returned the treaty without mendment, foreclosed the opportunity to make peace.
SHIELDS RECALLS A THREAT
Mr. Underwood said he never had regarded the question of reservations as important, but opposed the pending resolution because it necessitated making a separate peace. Senator Hitchcock (Neb.) interrupted to say that in his Jackson Day letter President Wilson declared it was "unthinkable that the United States would enter a separate peace with Germany. At this point Senator Shields (Tenn.) injected himself into the debate saying, 'In his letter to the Supreme Court, a few weeks ago the President said that unless terms were made for settlement of the Adriatic question sat factory to him he would withdraw the treaty. That would have necessitated a separate treaty with Germany, because it is unthinkable that he would have expected to keep the country armed with Germany forever.'
We must either ratify or be driven to a separate peace, because under this resolution we cannot resume relations with that Government, continue Mr. Underwood.
Senator Knox (Pa.) explained: Diplomatic and consular relations cannot of course be established except by arrangement with Germany, but if this resolution is adopted sup pleniment by the fact that we weeded hostilities more than a year and a half ago, or course it would be the President's duty in such circumstances to make such an arrangement and it was because I did not want to ruil it in on the president that I was calling to accept the Lodge amendment to strike out of the resolution the provision requiring the resident to make a new treaty. This would not be a treaty of peace, but a treaty of comity and commercial relations.
You can pass peace without a treaty. Mr. Knox called attention to the fact that the State Department had denounced the commercial treaty with Russia in 1911 and from that time until now there has been no commercial treaty between that country and the United States.
HARDING BLAMES PRESIDENT.
After a discussion of the constitutional issues by Senator Wabsh (Mont.) who asserted the way could he terminated by executive action. Senator Herding (Ohio) spoke for the resolution, he outlined some of the history of the long fight over the treny and the League of Nations arguing that the President's insistence on his own single programme which he would not submit to amendment to reservation or modification was responsible for the failure of the treaty. The treaty would have ratified eight months ago," he said, but for the President's determined opposition to opposed reservation which the Senate insisted upon in the effort to make it safe for America, but by his insistence that the Senate should not be allowed to exercise its constitutional poragative in connection with the country in a state of war many months after peace ought to have come to the country.
Senator Hitchcock (No.) closed the debate. The Senator from Ohio, he said, "advances a novel reason for adopting the resolution; that thereby we would show that not the President but a group of Senators is running this country.
No; I merely insisted on the proper cooperation of the President andgress, replied Mr. Harding.
The President has sole power to negotiate treaties, continued Mr. Hitchcock. That he did and submitted a treaty last July. Two months It was held in the hostile Foreign Relations Committee to the aggravation and disgust of the United States and and the world.
Will the Senator construe the constitutional provision for advice and the consent of the Senate in treaty making? asked Mr. Harding.
Advice cannot interfere with the right to negotiate, which is the President alone, replied Mr. Hitchcock.
COMMITTEE OF THE LEAGUE
Senator Hitchcock proceeded to mans the the President indicated on the League of Nations being written into the treaty because he had committed the country and the Allies to that programming by his speech of fourteen points and later utter phrases which were approved by this and other councils and again in the continuation of notes preliminary to theitation accepted as the basis basis to Powers' tightening Germany.
There was no opposition to that, so grammie in the Senate for many months after. That basis of peace was promised to Germany in the armistice preliminaries. Were we expected during the war to take issue here with the rhetorical offering of the President? demanded Mr. Harding. But taking issue then we could have warned him and the other Powers that there was no position to that basis of peace. But there was only silence in the Senate. As one Senator I want to acquit myself of the charge that all who have since opposed the treaty allowed the President to go to Paris understanding that we were willing to have the league covenant written. Into the treaty. Introduced and spoke to a resolution declaring it disastrous to link together the treaty and the covenant. Also I want to ask if the league is sacred because the President promised it why did the abandon the other thirteen of his fourteen points?
RESULT OF THE ROLL CALL
He did not, he made the best settlement possible in the circumstances, replied Senator Hitchcock. Every body here knew the Lodge reservations would defeat ratification and that they were attached for that very purpose.
When Mr. Hitchcock finished Senator Brandegee (Conn.) offered an amendment in a few words which he explained, were intended to insure that in one particular case the owners of a factory destroyed during the war would be compensated by Germany. It was adopted without discussion. Vice President Marshall ordered the roll called at once on the formal motion to adopt the Senate resolution as substitute for the House resolution.
