EACH SIDE IS CONFJDENT Committee Vote Is 1 1 to at Close or Three-Hour Debate in Executive Session. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. Universal military training as a Part r tne future military policy of the United States was approved In principle to day by the house military committee, which decided by two votes that the, army reorganization bill should make provision for such a plan, effective July 1. 1923. The close committee vote of 11 to 9, coming as a climax of a three-hour debate in executive session, was re garded as indicative of the bitter light to be made in the house when the reorganization measure comes up. Opponents, despite today's defeat. confidently predicted they would wi out when the proposal reaches th house. The senate also must vote o the universal training question, as its reorganization bill, now pending, in eludes such a provision. Opponent Are Confident. Opponents of universal ' training during debate in the committee de Glared reporting of the proposal was useless because of the democrati caucus having gone on record against It and with many republicans, in eluding Floor Leader Mondell, openly against the scheme. Opinion as to the country's reception of the plan varied with the sentiment of its sup, Sorters and opponents. i No details were decided on by the eor.unittee. this being referred to sub-committee, the majority of whom onnose the plan in principle. The committee refused to leave the ques tion of details to a commission nine, including three senators, three members of the house and three per- ons appointed by the president, but committee members indicated that the aub-committee might recommend such action be followed by the full com m it tee. Bill Completed In Substance. With the committee decision as to niversal training out of the way, the substance of the army reorgani zation bill practically was completed. Tho main question waiting settlement is the future of the national guard, which committeemen said soon would be disposed of. The vote in the committee was along bi-partisan lines, three demo erata joining with eight republicans In putting the training plan through. Four republicans and five democrats opposed it. Final action by the committee fol lowed a three-hour executive session In which debate at times became very sharp. The preponderant view of the sup porters was said to favor the train Ing of all youths of 19 years for i period of three or four months. Some supporters suggested six months, and Taried opinion was given as to the exemptions, vocational training and other questions. 11913 on account of various hindrances, j The school paper, the Index, has been ! j putting out a large and special edition I the past few years, since, due to its permanent organization, it was less difficult for the regular staff to put out a big paper in book form than for one class to assume the entire responsibility entailed in editing the Heart of Oak.

Acting Secretary Polk continued to study it today, and after it has been put In the usual diplomatic form and has been ap proved Anally by the president, it will be coded and put on the cables. State department officials Btill steadfastly refused to discuss the con tents, but a feeling ot satisiaction was noticeable in administration cir cles and jt was generally understood that Mr. Wilson had made an un equivocable -statement of the Amer ican government's position. While further exenanges are ex pected, it is believed that with the delivery of the president's note by Ambassador Da-is at London the question will have been removed from the argumentative stage. Although the premiers have for warded to Jugo-Slavia in the form of an ultimatum the settlement ar rived at without the participation of the United States, it is said they have not closed tho way to a return to the Paris agreement of December 9 to which the United States was a party. In the general belief here they have not overlooked cuggestion that the American government point the way to the carrying out of an agreement which Italy holds to be unacceptable. Officials here plainly do not re gard the situation as at all acute nor db they believe that a condition will arise from the exchange in which the United States will have to con sider whether it can become a party to the treaty of Versailles. The all'e answer to the president seems to have clarified the atmosphere, certainly to this extent. It was definitely settled today that the exchanges will be kept secret from the public, at least by the Ameri can government, until after the presi dent's note has been delivered to the allies.

Seven years ago, while digging a well, Mr. Kiggs discovered the gas-bearing stratum and later found that the 'stuff" would burn. Then he piped it into his house even into his stoves and lighting fixtures. Since then Mr. Riggs has cut no wood. Neither has he purchased any oil or coal. Now, when tne Riggs lamuy want either light or heat, they have only to strike a match, turn on the gas and well, there they have it.

He was taken to St. Joseph's hospital by the Limber am bulance, where the fracture was reduced. the flung of the complaint he re ceived an anonymous letter tellin; him he had better look up Mrs. Haw ley's "capers"' at Bar View, where she spent three weeks during the summer of 1918. Wife's Visit Investigated. "I never pay any attention to an anonymous letter, testified Hawley. "but in a few days one of the mill foremen came to me and told me that my wife's conduct at the beach had not been discreet and advised me to look into it. Along with my father and Mr. Dill, a private detective, made a trip to Bar View. I was told to see certain parties who told me about her conduct. I am afraid of detectives as a rule, and I think they are double-crossers, but I happened to know Mr. Dill, who was here dur i- ; the strike and I know he is straight." The defendant replied in the nega tive to a question from C. D. La- tourette, who asked If he intended to marry again. He said he had no prospects. "I have been worried about this case," he testified. "My weight has dropped from 17o to 163 pounds. He said his wife's custom during most of their married life while they lived in the Main street cottage was to stay in bed until 11 .o'clock in the morning, and she would have her breakfast in bed, and that frequently wnen tie came home for lunch she would not have her hair combed. Trip !Vot Reported. "Tou testified that you had visited the Barbary coast at San Francisco in company with Harold Zellerbach of the Zellerbach Paper company." asked Mr. Allen. "Did you tell your wife about It?" "I don't think I did." "Well, I wouldn't either," said Allen. Willard explained that he had walked through the dives in company with Zellerbach, and that the trip took about 20 minutes, and it oc curred in 1915, before he had even met Marjorie. He testified to sending Williams Brothers, a transfer concern, to his house, after the suit had been filed. to get the family washing machine for the purpose of taking it down the mill and have safeguards piaced on it for the protection of the baby. Mrs. Hawley had refused to give it up and he had gone to the house and explained why he wanted it and had three men load it Into a car and take it to the mill, where the safeguards were placed on the ma chine, which was sent back to the house the following morning. "Mrs. Hawley telephoned her at torney and asked me to talk to him over the telephone, but I declined said the witness. "I also had some porch chairs taken down to the mill for renovation and sent them back to the house. He was staying at the house with his father and mother at night, and tat night, when they returned from trip to Portland, the following note was found on his mother's pillow: "Mrs. Hawley: I am expecting com pany tomorrow night and I will have to have my guest room, l spoke to Willard about it today and after the performance this afternoon I feel that I am entitled to my guest room when ever I need it. MARJORIE." The matter was harmoniously ar ranged through the attorneys the next day and the Hawleys stayed at the house until they went to Portland later. Mother Objects to Wife. Mrs. W. P. Hawley, mother of the defendant, was placed on the stand late this afternoon. She testified that she had objected to the marriage of her son. "I thought Marjorie did not pocsess the qualifications to make my son a good wife." she said "I should have liked to have had him marry a more cultured girl. I offered to send Mar jorie to school in the east for a year, but Mrs. Fraker objected, and I said that Mrs. Fraker was right; that peo ple would make disagreeable remarks, but that we could overcome her ob jections by sending Marjorie to a fin ishing school at Portland. When Wil lard came to me and told me he had never met any girl he loved so much as Marjorie, I withdrew my objec tions." Mrs. Hawley said she had never spoken an unkind word to her son's wife and tney bare never naa a cross word. The family offered to give Mar- ' jorie vocal and piano lessons, but after one piano lesson Marjorie said she would just as soon bite nails as practice, testified the mother, and said she took up the study of French along with her daughter-in-law. Coaeillatioa la Attempted. On cross-examination by Mr. Latou- rette, the witness said that Marjorie did not have an appreciative nature, and that after the Hawleys paid $5000 for a lot on the hill in Oregon City and were planning the construction of a fine house, there was so much wrangling over the plans of the house that they abandoned the idea. "I do not believe in divorces," tes tified Mrs. Hawley, "and I used every endeavor to prevent a separation." The Hawley divorce case will have a respite of two days, for Sunday 13 Washington's birthday and court will therefore not sit on the Monday fol lowing. It is expected that when the case is resumed Tuesday morning it will run over until the latter part of next week. The cross-examination of Mrs. Hawley will be continued Sat urday. Just what his understanding of the term "fifty-fifty" was, as used by his wife, was explained by .Willard Haw ley under cross-examination this morning. Money Talk Pains. "Don't you know that Marjorie has great respect and esteem for your father and mother?" asked C. D. Latourette, for the plaintiff. "I would not say so on account of some remarks she made about them," replied the defendant. "Well, didn't your father and moth er go fifty-fifty from the start?" "At first all my father had to give my mother was a SoOO Indebtedness. "Did you not show some haste in leaving the room on the night of your last conference with your wife, when she referred to fifty-fifty?" "Well, it was not so much her say ing fifty-fifty, but what tore my heart strings was when she asked me what I was going to do for her financially." "Mr. Hawley, didn't you criticise Mrs. Hawley's sister, Mrs. Ball?" Tormenting Is Denied. "I only know that Mrs. Hawley told me about her sister's conduct at Bar View, and when she returned from the coast she filed a suit against her husband for divorce and he en listed in the tank corps, and blocked her divorce, so she could not marry Robinson." Mr. Latourette referred to the testi mony of both Mr. and Mrs. Hawley about his conduct in tickling and prodding her when she went up stairs. "Did it irritate her?" he asked. "Do you mean irritation to her leg or her temper?" said Hawley. "I mean either her leg or her tem per." "It did not irritate either her leg or her temper, and I don't think it is a crime for a man to tickle his wife's leg while she is going upstairs." The attorney spoke of the testi mony relative to the manner in which young Mrs. Hawley arranged her hair. "Did these puffs look like angel wings?" he asked. Wife Said, to Have Told Fibs. "I never have seen any angel wings," replied Mr. Hawley, "but I hope to some day." "Did you ever call her angel wings?" "No. I called her angel face and angel food and angel dear." The witness testified that when he held his wife's wrists in restraint, after she had thrown a Worcester shire bottle on the floor, that she threatened to call the sheriff. "Did you always find your wife truthful, before you married her?" he was asked. "I can't say I always found her truthfuL She told me that she had told me an untruth to the extent of one, year about her age, on account of working in the telephone office. I am sorry to have to say it, Mr. Latourette, but she told me out and out lies about Bar View." Mr. Hawley testified that his wife was a good cook, and prepared the meals when they were without serv ants. In answer to a question, he said he had had no reason to suspect her fidelity until after the suit was filed. After the suit for divorce was filed Willard and his father and mother slept at their home in Oregon City, having two rooms set aside for them. and Marjorie's mother, Mrs. Fraker. was also there. While negotiations for a settlement were pending, and before the complaint had been filed, Willard'9 mother suggested to Mrs. Fraker that they all go home and leave the young people to them selves, with the idea that it might be easier to arrange a reconcilation without parental influence, testified Willard. He said Mrs. Fraker'a answer was: "No, I stay right here." 'Did Mrs. Fraker have her own way pretty often?" asked Latourette. "That's what Colonel Fraker said," replied Willard.

How Labor Plans To Win the Go vemmeitit Can American Labor elect a Labor Government without the aid of a Labor party? For nothing less than this, in the opinion of the New York Times (Dem.), is the purpose behind the non-partisan political campaign of the American Federation of Labor. If the Federation could control the votes of one-third of its membership "it could dominate the situation," remarks the Baltimore News (Ind.). The Federation's plan, the Chicago Unionist reminds us, is another application of the methods by which the Anti-Saloon League won its overwhelming victories after the Prohibition party had failed to get political results. In Congress, Representative Blanton, of Texas, characterized the American Federation of Labor pronunciamento as "the greatest menace ever sounded." For, said Mr. Blanton, "when an organized minority of less than five per cent of the people can control legislation, and now threaten to elect a Congress of serfs, it is indeed a national crisis, threatening the institutions of the country." According to the Indianapolis Union, however, "the American Federation of Labor does not seek to gov ern; but it is eminently right in taking steps to educate its members as to which side their political bread is buttered on." No other subject before the public today bears more importance than that treated in the leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week. February 21st.

The sight of her husband behind the bars of the county jail was too much for Mrs. Charles Davis yes terday afternoon. With tears coursing down her cheeks, sne pleaded witn Thomas Magulre. deputy dlBtrlct at torney, to dismiss the complaint she had sworn out against hubby the day before. "He has a bad temper, but he has always been a good husband, and I don't want him to stay In Jail," she sobbed. "He wasn't going to kill me, I know he didn't mean it." "I know I have a bad temper, but it's because of my indigestion," con fessed Davis. "I'll do better from now on."

For real, downright, harassing dis comfort very few disorders can ap proach so-called skin disorders, sucn Eczema, Tetter, Bolls, eruptions. scaly irritations and similar skih troubles, notwithstanding the lavish use of salves, lotions, washes and other treatments applied externally to the irritated parts. No one ever heard of a person being fflicted with any form of skin dis ease whose blood was In good condi tion. Therefore, it is but logical to conclude that the proper method of treatment for pimples, blotches, sores, I bolls, rough, red and scaly skin is to purify the blood and remove the tiny germs of pollution that break through and manifest their presence on the surface of the skin.
