(U. P.) Hammered from every side, Repub lican Leader Lodge today steered his second peace treaty reservation through the senate by the decisive vote of 50 to G. Today's test was on the withdrawal reservation, and despite repeated attempts by Demo crats, Republicans, mild reservatlon lsts and "bitter enders" to alter it, the Lodge forces ield together until ; the final roll call.

Another Lodge victory occurred today, this one in the cloakroom. It was re ported that "bitter enders" have called pff their plans to defeat the reserva tion on Article X unless it is radically strengthened. Mild opponents served notice on this group, "headed by Borah, that until they call off this fight, enough mild reservatlonista will swing to Senator Hitchcock's side to defeat the 'T;odge forces. Borah, it Is said. Is not .willing to go this far. Lodge was jubilant at the end of the strenuous session. The further they went the better they seemed to be;" he , declared, "I am very well pleased and delighted at the outcome." At least five or six of the pending reservations will be disposed of without delay, he predicted. The end of next week should see reservations "pretty (Continued on rsge Two. Column One.)

Anglo-Saxon World Dedicated to Spirit Of League of Nations "The League of Nations a new - instrument of cooperation between nations that will make for progress and understanding." Such in sub stance was the definition given by 'Alexander F. Whyte, Scotchman, for . hier member of the British parlia 1 ment, in' an address at the Benson .hotel Saturday afternoon before the Oregon Civic league. In almost the same' breath he paid a ; tribute of uncommon effect to the chief " executive of the United States. "Had it not been for President Wil son," he said, "the League of Nations 'plan would not have been lifted from v the table of the peace conference. - "Had It not been for President Wilson, . the eague'of Nations could never have become an International cause." And he : emphasised the Joint efforts of two other " Anglo-Saxons, Robert Cecil of England V and Ian Smuts of South Africa, In mak . t'tnj? the league possible.

The results of the observations of the total eclipse of the sun last May, which have Just been worked out, appear to establish the limitation of space. This, If true. Is the most portentious scientific dis covery in the history of the world. Sir Joseph Thompson, one of the world's most famous scientists and edu cators, today pronounced the conclu sions of the Royal society and the Royal Astronomical society the greatest dis covery in connection with gravity since Sir Isaac, Newton enunciated the prin ciple and the great achievement in the history of human thought. Apparently results of the calculations based on the observations prove that the rays of the stars are deflected in their passage past the sun in conse quence of the sun's gravitation. This, authorities say, tends to prove the truth of the L'lnstein theory, which is somewhat obscure even to scientists, but includes the idea of the limitation of the space of the universe. Dr. Andrew Crommelin of the Royal observatory at Greenwich, said today: "The consequence of the discovery would be that space would be no longer looked on , as extending indefinitely In all directions, and that if Investigators could go far enough, they would reenter the same ground. Euclidian straight lines cannot exist in Einstein's space ; they are all curved, and if they travel far enough, return to the starting point." Sir Frank Dysom, astronomer royal, said the expedltlqns to North Brazil and West Africa had made definite and con clusive observations which, allowing for all corrections due to disturbing factors, showed that the light from certain bright tara-jieaK the sun was deflected ft? it passed the sun In close accord wltlj the theoretical degree predicted by Einstein as opppsed to half that degree which would result from- application of the Newtonian principle." t TERMS OF PEACE Propose to Assume Old National Debt If Warfare Is Ended. London, Nov. 8. (U. P.) The allies have been given until Novem ber 15 to accept Bolshevlkl "peace terms," as proposed to Colonel Malone. unofficial British investiga tor, according to the Labor Herald. The terms as printed in the Labor Herald provide that : If the allies do not accept the Bolshe vik terms by November 15 the Russian soviet government reserves the right to offer them to Germany. A two weeks' armistice shall be de clared If the allies desire to discuss the terms. Existing de facto governments, such as Esthonla and Letvla, shall remain In control of territories occupied until the government determines its allegi ance. Economic blockade against the soviet government shall be " terminated. Free use of ports of the former Rus sian empire shall be granted the soviet government. Bolshevik cititzens shall have free entrance Into allied nations. Allies shall withdraw all forces from Russia. Bolshevlkl shall assume responsibility for debts of former Russian govern ments. nounced subject of Mr. Whyte's dis course, in which he developed the thought that it is among the English speaking world that the doctrine of government "of the people, by the peo ple and for the people" has been put Into practice. He scored the old diplomacy that took wars for granted and did lit tle to prevent their recurrence, and laid stress on the influence of the returned soldier of the English-speaking nations as a powerful factor In translating the League of Nations tat instrument for human progress. "Government by liberty" is the com mon Bhartng of citizens of Great Britain and the United States, said the speaker. "When that government is challenged by Prussian autocracy or the subverted principle known as Bolshevism, it will be answered by Anglo-Saxon public opinion through the League of Nations.

Heedless Pedestrians Also Con tribute Their Share to Reasons for Numerous Accidents. By Ward A. Irvine Tom Mulrenan, young, hollow eyed and pale, dragged. himself into the traffic department of the Port land police station Saturday. He sank slowly into a chair and pres ently reached to tie his shoe. He groaned as he drew back, unable to reach his shoe tops. Ten weeks ago, Tom Mulrenan was a sinewy longshoreman on Portland docks. His step had been quick and his back muscular. Nine weeks ago, he had attended a meeting of longshoremen and was on the way to his lodgings, money in his pocket and work for the morrow. With his comnanion be had crossed Third street at Everett to with- ! in two steps of the sidewalk. It was dark and raining. From behind an automobile whirled and Tom was in its path. He was dragged 15 feet crying "My God, stop j that car !" before he lapsed into uncon sciousness. . ..-.' MAST ESCiTPES DEATH For eight weeks Mulrenan tajr ort his injured back at St. Vincents ' hospital, his tower limbs held in place by heavy weights; and for hours blood welled from his .crushed chest. They gave him up as lost,' tut he pulled through. And he doesn't walk, he drags himself and he can't tje his own shoes now. ' "I don't know when I can work again," Mulrenan offered as his sad eyes stared into space. "1 never ate a meal on anybody. But the doctor says he doesn't know when 1 can work again." He was attempting to decide whether he would seek relatives or go to the county farm. Mulrenan had been in one of the 20 accidents that occur on Portland streets IJj every day. By an eyelash he escaped the death column, which shows one fatality every ten days, but was entered on the books at the police station as one of the 97 Injured during the month.

In a series of, articles, of which this Is the Paris patf conference, discusses in turn the file how each crisis was met and relates President of world peace. By Ray Stannard Baker It was inevitable that President Wilson should be forced at Paris to bear the brunt of the heavy fighting fighting that 'would have worn out a stronger, more robust man than he. For he had a double problem, a double task. He had not only to join the other delegates 'in making peace with Germany, but he had the far more difficult and delicate task, which grew more and more dif ficult' as the conference progressed, of upholding the dis interested American position against the insistent desires and necessities of the other allied nations. Most persons do not realize that most of the troubles at Paris, and every one of the really serious crises, arose not out of any differences of view regarding the terms to be imposed upon Germany, but out of deep-seated and often bitter disagreements among the allies them selves. Throughout the six troubled months of the conference the center and focus of the struggle was the conflict between President Wilson, demanding a settlement upon broad principles (which everyone had accepted) and the other allied powers demanding various ma terial reimbursements or advantages. WILS03TS PLA3T ACCEPTED While the war waa still in progress necessity united the allies; everyone accepted Mr. Wilson's plan of settle ment, and welcomed his strong leader shipfor three reasons: First, because bis principles appealed to the great masses of the world as good in themselves, as the true, reason able and honest basis of settlement. This tended to disarm the opposition' of .the radicals Jn all European countries who were becoming- more and more .restless with the bloody continuation or the war. Second, because a hearty acceptance l ' ' jjj VM:-- A Ass"' second, Mr. Baker rereals the inside story of the great crises that confronted the conference and Wilson's almost superhuman work in the interest Of the American idea and American leadership helped to bring America with her vaBt resources more wholeheartedly into the war. Third, because Wilson's diplomacy tended to divide and weaken German support of the war. HIGH PtrttFOSE FADES ; The moment the war ended in an un expectedly complete victory, the high purpose and the unified spirit of the allies began to fade away. They were hot, after all. united nations. Each had fta strong loyalties, its ambitions, its necessities, and these immediately began to assert themselves. In the high mo menta cf inspiration and enthusiasm of the war men had begun to believe in miracles; when it was over they found themselves back in the old world and more than that, in a state of exhaustion jand demoralization which Bomeone has jcharacterised as national shell shock. It must never be forgotten that it. was in this atmosphere of national , shell shock, exaggerated appearances, exag gerated fears, that the treaty was made, i The president ; undoubtedly came to Europe filled with rreat hope and faith. p (Concluded en Ba Four., guhunn Oas MINERSDAZED By POWERFUL D ER Union Hurriedly Calls Meeting for Monday to Consider In structions to Cancel Strike.

The judge warned the union officials that it would be the wisest policy to obey court orders. "It they do not withdraw the strike call I will see that they do." he said.

Washington, Nov. 8. The govern-5 ment of the United States has started relentlessly to make war on the horde of "Reds" within its borders whose purpose is to undermlnethe institutions of America and achieve the government's overthrow by rev olutionary methods. t - The roundup last night bjr the depart ment of justice agents of tn 111 Rus sian Red leaders in sensational raids .that covered more than 15 of the largest industrial centers of the United States, is 'the biggest- of such scoops that have ever been made by the department of justice, but it was only the first steps in the government's determined fight entirely to rid America of anarchists and "Red" agitators. The raids by the department of jus tice will continue until every one of the undesirables is exiled from America. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, who directed last night's raids, has waiting at the ports along the ..tlantic seaboard vessels to carry from America the captured alien Red -leaders. The government will have the active i support of congress In Its present fight to weed out. the Reds from America. This was evidenced vividly today In the report of the Kenyon strike committee of the senate, which advocated the immediate deportation of Red agitators j and a law to fully protect the country from their machinations.

Police, government agents and uniformed mem bers of the New York state constabulary swooped down on a meeting of alleged "Reds" here tonight and corralled 200 of the "Reds" in a hall.
