WASHINGTON, Dee. " X President
Wilson's trip to Europe was the sub
ject of debate in the Senate today be
tween Senators 6herman, of Illinois,
Republican, and . ilUams of Mississippi.
In introducing a resolution to declare
the President's office vacant upon Mr.
Wilson's departure from the country
and to provide for the succession of
Vice-President Marshall, Senator Sher
man severely criticised the President
for his decision to attend the peace
conference. He declared the trip Is un
justified, constitutes "a grave menace"
and misfit cause "Insidious mischief."
Senator Williams warmly defended
the President's course. He recited the
fact that both Presidents Taft and
Roosevelt made trips outside of the
United States and suggested that the
purpose of the President's critics was
to make political capital out. of his
voyage abroad.
While this colloquy was proceeding
In the Senate. Representative Mann, of
Illinois, the Republican leader In the
House, Issued a statement declaring
that factional strife should not be per
mitted to interfere with the President's
mission. He said there would be no
concerted effort by House Republicans
to embarrass the .'resident and that he
did not believe the American people
would "tolerate any meddling In that
which so vitally concerns them."
Ths debate between Senators Sher
man and Williams continued about two
hours, but no other Senators joined In
the discussion, except to ask occasional
questions. - ;
Ma-y Senators of both parties left
their seats when the speaker of the
opposition party was sddresslng the
Senate. Well-filled galleries, however,
closely followed the exchanges between
the speakers and occasionally ' the
spectators were reprimanded by Vice
President Marshall for applauding.
Disposition of 8enator Sherman's
resolution went over, under the rules,
after the author requested that It lie
on the table. The Senate foreign rela
tions committee tomorrow will begin
consideration of the resolution of Sena
tor Cummins, of Iowa, Republican, that
a Senate committee of elgh. be ap
pointed to go to i.c 'ope and keep the
Senate advised as to the proceedings
of the peace conference.
Senator Cummins plans to appear be
fore the committee In behalf of 'the
resolution and committee members say
It will be sent to the Senate for action
with or without committee recommen
dation. The foreign relations committee also
i. to consider a resolution introduced
today by Senator Knox, of Pennsyl
vania, Republican, and former Secre
tary of State, proposing postponement
by the peace conference of action on
the questions of a league of nations

We wish to announce, however, that soon it will be
possible to resume manufacturing the complete line
of "Wear-Ever," including those styles and sizes of
utensils unobtainable during the war."
Because "Wear-Ever" is
contributing to the comfort

natural that the hundreds of
thousands of women whose

"Vyear-Ever" are even
prouder than ever of their
