SENATE MAY REQUEST
PARIS TO ALTER PACT
Knox Resolution Brings Fight
to Direct Issue.
BITTER DEBATE EXPECTED
I'ormal Notice to Peace Conference
of Opposition to Present Docu
ment Is Proposed.
WASHINGTON", June 10. The senate
fight over the league of nations was
brought to a more direct issue today
with the introduction of a resolution
by Senator Knox, republican of Penn
sylvania, proposing that the senate
give formal notice to the peace confer
ence of opposition to be expected should
the peace treaty be submitted for rati
fication in its present form.
Senator Knox, a member of the for
eign relations committee, and a former
secretary of state, drafted the resolu
tion after conferences with other
league Opponents and presented It with
the apparent support of those who
have led in criticism of the league cov
enants. He expected to crystallize op
position sentiment as did Senator
Lodge with the circulation of the round
robin in the closing hours of the last
senate.
Acceptance- Privilege Outlined.
While declaring for immediate con
clusion of a treaty dealing -with the
direct issue of the war only, the reso
lution contains a far-reaching proposal
which would lay it down as a policy of
the American government that when
ever the freedom and peace of Europe
are threatened, the United State will
consider it obligatory again to co
operate in the removal of that menace.
Decision as to acceptance of member
ship in the league of nations should be
left without prejudice to each nation,
the resolution decrees, for future sepa
rate consideration. It also asserts the
lack of authority by the treaty-making
power of the government to mane 1
treaty which In effect amends the con
stitution.
Bitter Debate Anticipated.
At Mr. Knox's request the resolution.
was referred without debate to tne
foreign relations committee. He will
attempt to get committee action to
morrow or Thursday and hopes to
hriner it urj to the .senate for consid
ration by the end of tne week. The
resolution Is sure to open a new chap
ter in the league of nations fight and
to develop a debate which may be even
more bitter than that over publication
of the treaty text.
J. P. Morgan and Henry P. Davison
notified the Senate sergeant-at-arms
today they would come to Washington
tomorrow.
Thomas W. Lamot is In France.
Jacob Schiff is said to be in bad health.
Mr. Schiff's office is understood to
have requested that he be not asked to
come to Washington at this time.
Financiers to Appear.
There were many conferences among
senators over provisions of the treaty
published in full in today's congres
sional record and the foreign relations
committee made plans to resume tomor
row its Investigation of how treaty
copies reached private hands in New
York. Of the six financiers the com
mittee had summoned. Three J. P.
Mora-an. Henry P. Davison and Frank
A. Vanderlip sent word they would be
readv to appear tomorrow.
The committee is expected to agree
tomorro won other witnesses to be
called later in the week.
In comment on the treaty text, put
into the record after a long fight yes
terday by Senator Borah, republican, of
Idaho, there were three topics about
which interest centered. They, were me
lirovislons affecting Shantung and the
sarr valley and the section providing
lor an international labor control. Sev
eral senators opposing the treaty said
the text revealed that the right of self
determination in Shantung and the Sarr
bad been more closely curtailed than
had been apparent heretofore and that
the international labor section went
much further than they had expected.

ome supreme. In the fundamental
issues involved are the right to or
ganize, the right to bargain collectively
and to stop the victimization of union
telegraph workers. Wages and work

can only be taken up when the tele

union's representatives.

Hair Often Ruined
By Careless Washing
Soap should be used very carefully. If
vou want to keep your hair looking Its
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins It.
The best thing- for steady use is Mul
sified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is
pure and greaseless), and is better than
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out easily,
removing every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil

Mr. Konenkamp today sent the fol
lowing telegram to Samuel Gompers.
president of the American Federation
of Labor, which is in session at At
lantic City:
"The commercial telegraphers of the
United States will strike tomorrow for
the fundamental rights to organize
into trade unions and to bargain col
lectively.. The attitude of the wire ad
ministration under Burleson and his
restoring President Carlton to control
of the Western Union for the purpose
of destroying us makes this strike in
evitable. You are aware of the prom
ises made us by the government. You
know how they were violated. Media
tion, conciliation and arbitration have
not been available for us. because -the
employers doubt our strength. But I
teel confident we will surprise the na
tion by tomorrow's response.
'I earnestly ask the convention now
in session to take some action to help
us destroy the worst labor autocracy
this country has ever konwn."
The Association of Western Union
employes may not Join the strike. Jo
seph P. Hayes, president of the associa
tion, today sent a message to all mem
bers urging them to continue at work.
He said officials of the Western Union
had assured him the company would
soon pay the retroactive wage awards
recently ordered by Postmaster-General
Burleson and so end all disputes over
wages.
President Konenkamp declared today
that the strike would be won if it
were necessary to call out broker and
leased wire operators, including press
association operators. Some press as
sociations have contracts with their
operators expiring July 1.
W. F. Davis, district head of the

their wires paralyzed.
Plana were being made by the union
today for picketing the principal of
fices of the telegraph and telephone
companies.
WASHINGTON, June 10. Because of
the threatened telegraphers' strike to
morrow the house interstate commerce
committee today postponefi further
consideration of the bill for return of
the wire systems to private manage
ment. "
The committee fixed June 30 instead
of July 31 as. the date for return of
the properties.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 10. Reports
that the Postal Telegraph company
would be excepted from tomorrow's
strike order were denied by company
officials. The status of both the Pos
tal and the Western Union were the
same, it was announced.
The Federal company here was said
to have practically agreed to the terms
ox the workers and to hve avoided
strike.
COMPROMISE HOPE ABANDONED
Keymen Hold They Are Fighting
Only for Their Rights.
All hope of a compromise with the
Western Union Telegraph company and
the Postal Telegraph company relative
to wage and other demands was aban
doned yesterday by the commercial
telegraphers, who say the wire busi
ness of the two concerns will be crip
pled at 8 o clock this morning by
strike.
On the other hand, officials of the
telegraph companies seem to view the
situation with complacency and declare
that the commercial telegraphers are
greatly overestimating the number who
will leave then keys. It is confidently
predicted that-little effect of the strike
11 be felt in Portland.
Banners three by four feet in size
have been prepared for use of pickets
who will be on duty during the strike
bearing the inscription: " Vv estern
Union Telegraph company unfair to
organized labor. Do not patronize.
The same applies also to the Postal
Telegraph company, near the office of
which pickets will carry banners di
rected against that concern.
Union leaders say that in addition to
154 members of the union original
declared ready to comply with the
strike order, 70 more young women
are ready to walk out. Conferences

State Federation of Labor, showed or

President C. H. Preston, of the Com
mercial Telegraphers' Union, eaid yes
terday that the Federal company had
met its employes more than half way
and that efforts were being made to
secure employment for men who will
be out on strike, so they may not be
forced to return to their present posi

believe to be right," said Mr. Preston
yesterday. "We don't want the public
to think the Telegraphers' union is an
autocratic organization endeavoring to
rule or ruin. We have been contending
for certain concessions from our em
ployers for a long time, and there ap
pears to us no other method of bring
ing about such, changes as we are de
manding." Immediately upon leaving their keys
this morning, all striking telegraphers
will be registered at headquarters in
the Stock Exchange building at Third

union has been called simultaneously
for the transaction of such business as
may demand attention.

WINNIPEG, June 10. Serious clash
es resulted from demonstrations by
strike sympathizers against returned
soldier constables this evening. A large
crowd gathered between the city hall
and Portage avenue, with the main
disturbance occurring at the corner of
Portage avenue and Main, where
strikers and sympathizers disarmed
and assaulted individual special po-
ice. A squad of special police and
mounted police then paraded the af
fected area.
Missiles were thrown by the crowd.
the police retaliating by a free use of
their batons on the heads of demon-
strants.
At 6:30 o'clock the special police had
the situation well in hand and calm
was restored. A number of returned
soldier-constables and demonstrants
were severely battered and one special
policeman was seriously injured.
Mayor Charles F. Gray announced
he would not call out the troops to
quell the rioting. He said the spe
cial constables would be able to
handle the situation.
Demonstrants Jeer at Soldiers.
The trouble started when a few dem
onstrants jeered at the returned sol
dier special mounted constables, re
placing the policemen who yesterday
were dismissed by the police commis
sion. A large crowd quickly gathered.
Suddenly it surged into the street and
attacked the half-dozen special con
stables, who plied their batons vigor
ously. A large squad of special po
licemen arrived and were made the
targets for stones, bottles, sticks and
other missiles. The disturbances con
tinued for nearly two hours and ended
after about 20 constables and an equal
number of demonstrants were painful
ly, but not. seriously, bruised and cut.
The appearance of an additional de
tail of 200 constables had a calming
effect on the crowd, and the rioting
died down as suddenly as it began.
Mayor Gray declared agitators among
the crowd were responsible for the
affair.
Winnipeg will have a brand new po
lice force as a result of the re-organization
that is now taking place.. Since
the decision Monday of the police com
mission in opposition to sympathetic
strikes by policemen every member of
the old force has been given the al
ternative of signing the pledge or
quitting the force. According to the
authorities 220 men refused to sign
and were dismissed. Chief of Police
J. MacPherson said that 20 men of the
old force may remain.
Cars May Run Tomorrow,
Modified proposals have been pre
sented to the metal trades employes
from the railway 'brotherhood media
tion board, H. E. Barker, chairman of
the board, announced. These are the
former proposals changed to meet the
objections raised by employers.
Winnipeg's street railway system is
expected to operate Thursday for the
first time in more than three weeks.
Following action by the city council
last night Informally asking the com
pany to resume service. Manager A. W.
McLlmot of Winnipeg Street Railway
company sent out a notice to all em
ployes on strike to return to work. At
the city hall it was stated that if the
men disregard the notice, street cars
will be manned by volunteers who will
be adequately protected. Mayor Charles
F. Gray declared that any attempt at
violence and intimidation will be se
verely dealt with.
Many strikers returned to work today
in civic, industrial and commercial
circles. It is roughly estimated by city
officials that 40 per cent of those who
Joined the sympathetic strike move
ment May 15 are working. All com
mercial and broker telegraphers were
back at their keys this a fternoon. The
press operators are negotiating with
employers.
