ATLANTIC CITY, N. J, Aug-. 24.
Organized women workers of the
country today pressed their demands
for equal privileges with men in all
unions, before the executive council
of the American Federation of Labor,
and urged that It take steps immedi
ately to compel all unions to admit
them to membership.
The women delegates were In
formed by the council that It was
powerless to compel unions to grant
them membership. The council, how
ever, is understood to have promised
to use its Influence to have the rights
of the women workers recognized by
all unions.
Barbers Lead Opposition.
The Journeymen Barbers' union has
led the opposition to the women,
claiming that the barber shop is no
place for a woman.
CHARLESTON, W. Va., Aug. 14.
Mother Jones, well known as a leader
among the miners, left here this
morning for Marmet, where approxi
mately 3000 miners have been in camp
for several days as a protest against
the maintenance of martial law in
the Mingo county coal field. Mother
Jones was to address the men.
Committees la Control.
Persons who have been allowed to
enter the camp declared that control
seemed to rest in the hands of com
mittees who were active in seeing
that their orders were obeyed. Food
supplies consisted of rations which
many of the men brought with them,
but it was known that purchases had
been made in surrounding villages
and in Charleston.
If the men have a clearly defined
programme, It has not been allowed
to reach the public.

AUSTRIAN PACT SIGNED
fPontlnud From riret Pajre.)
was not signed today as had been
Intended. 1
The delay In signing resulted from
an unexpected technical point raised
in connection with the formalities as
arranged by Ellis Loring Dresel. the
united Mates commissioner, and Dr
Friedrlch Rosen, the German foreign
minister, yesterday. The ceremony
of signing was to have taken place
at noon today at the foreign office,
but it was postponed at the request
or Mr. Dresel, who asked the prlv
liege of querying the Washington
government on the mooted point.
Contents Not Affected.
At both the headquarters of the
American commission and the Ger
man foreign office It was said the
technicality which involved the de-
jay aia not anect the contents or
character of Ihe treaty, as both gov
ernments reached a full accord on tbe
official text some days ago.
German editors had been summoned
to the foreign' office for a discussion
of the treaty this afternoon, but the
conference was postponed pending
receipt by Commissioner Dresel of a
reply from Washington.
Ruling; la Desired.
Although the point which was re
ferred to Washington is said to be
of minor technical Importance, Com
missioner Dresel preferred to obtain
a ruling upon it from the American
state department. If this reply Is re
ceived early Thursday it is probable
that duly executed copies of the
treaty will be exchanged that day.
The signing In Vienna today of the
peace treaty between Austria and the
United States was said to be a mere
coincidence with the -date on which
the German peace treaty was to have
been signed, as it was declared that
neither German nor American off!
clals here had been Informed of the
signing of the Austrian treaty.
axxnvr to be attexided to
evr Treaty With Gen-many Laid
Before Senate) Oomrmlttee.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 24.
The state department received to
night a report from Commissioner
Dresel at Berlin on the peace treaty
negotiations and said the point which
had been raised would be attended
to at once. Offioials did not discuss
the question, saying that it was one
of "minor technical importance."
The new treaty with Germany was
laid before members of the senate
fore ben relations committee toda
and was received by them with com
expressions of uncertainty, but with
a general show of approval.
The text of the treaty was no
made public, pending word of Its
signature. In Berlin, but It becam
known that the document reaffirm
In exact- language the principal
features of the peace resolution an
gives force to various portions
the unratified treaty of Versailles.
A first impression of approval i
voiced by republican and democrat!
committeemen alike, and, although
final decisions were reserved, ther
appeared little prospect tonight that
the treaty would lead to a long or bit
ter fight when it is submitted for
mally for ratification. Its submissio
Is expected as soon as the senate re
assembles a month hence after th
congressional recess.
Among the first to express a favor
able opinion from the democratic side
was Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska
who, as senior democratic member of
the committee, led the fight for ratifi
cation of the Versailles treaty. De
claring he had received a "very favor
able" impression of the newly nego
tiated pact, Hitchcock said he saw
no reason why it should not be rati
fied promptly. Similar views were ex
pressed privately by other democrats.
110
QUALITY
although none would talk for publl-
cation.
Among the republican members of
the committee the only enigma was
presented by the attitude of Senators
Borah of Idaho and Johnson of Cali
fornia. The latter Is absent from
Washington and Senator Borah had
not a word to say until he bad op
portunity for further study of the
treaty. All the other republican com
mitteemen are said to have agreed to
support ratification.
Thie treaty text, which had been
negotiated, at Berlin under an inhibi
tion of secrecy requested by 'this gov
ernment, first was laid before the re
publican members today at a con
ference with President Harding and
Secretary Hughes at the WMte
House, and later was communicated
to the full committee by Mr. Hughes
at the capitol.
In both Instances members of the
committee are understood to have
been requested to give no hint of the
con-tents of the treaty until it had'
'been signed and its text made public
Advices were received tonlg-ht con
firming the signdng of a treaty with
Austria, as reported in news dis
patches. No statement beyond this
would be made at the state depart
ment. The treaty with Hungary was not
given to the committee, but It is un
derstood to follow closely the tine of
that with Germany. Portions of the
peace resolution, relating to Austro-
Hungary are said to be reaffirmed,
long with certain sections of the
treaty previously negotiated with
Austria but not ratified by the
eenate.
In the German treaty, a document
of less than 1S00 words, a large sec
tion is understood to be devoted to
reservation of the rights and advan
tages gained by the United States un
der the armistice agreement and by
acts of war, the exact words of the
peace resolution being used in the
definition of these access'ons. "Any
indemnities, reparations or advan
tages" to which this nation Is entitled
as one of the principal allied and as-
oclated powers are said to be spe
cifically preserved and all seized prop-
rty of the German government or or
German subjects is left within Amer
ican possession pending a full settle
ment of all claims against Germany.
It is understood there is no specific
provision in the treaty by which Ger
many admits her full responsibility
for the war, although administration
facials are said to take the view
that such responsibility is admitted by
implication in German acceptance of
the specified sections of the treaty of
ersailles. These sections are said to
relate to reparations, overseas pos
esslons and miscellaneous subjects.
It was the method of naming these
sections of the Versailles treaty wlth-
ut repeating the language of them
the new pact which led various
members of the committee to with
hold final judgment as to their posi
tion on ratification. . No copies of the
German treaty were left with the sen
ators by Secretary Hughes, but he did
give each a list of the sections so
ited in order to make possible a
tudy of the parts of the Versailles
pact which are to become effective.
Senator Borah, tn particular, was
aid to have Indicated in the commit
tee meeting that he desired time to
examine the text of the cited para
graphs. As a leader of the Irrecon
cilable opponents of the Versailles
T.reaty, the Idaho senator Is under
stood to believe that no parts of it
hould be acoepted which might com
mit the United States morally to sup
port the principles upon which it was
arawn.
Of the republican members who are
In Washington. Senator Borah was
he only one not present at todav's
White House conference, for which
nvitations were issued by President
Harding; late last night. "Other im
portant matters" were said by Mr.
Borah to have prevented his attend
ance. He 'was present at the" later
meeting with Secretary Hughes at the
capitol, where the only absentees
were Senators Johnson of California
and Knox of Pennsylvania,' republic
ans, and Senator Shields, democrat, of
Tennessee.
Colombian Treaty Presented.
BOGOTA, Colombia. Auer. 24. Th
reaty between the United States and
Colombia was presented to the senate
today by the foreign minister. The
minister said he would Inform the
senate as to details regarding modi
fications made In the instrument In
the. United States. The principal
newspapers In discussing the treaty
asked the people to have natlence.
They lament, however, the suppres
sion or tns rirst clause of the treaty,
which they regard as more Important
tnan pecuniary Indemnification.
