ST. LAWRENCE TREATY BLOC STILL HOPEFUL ‘We Have Only Begun to Fight,’ Says Head of Seaway Group. By Cnitrd Prrsn WASHINGTON. March 15.—Advocates of St. Lawrence waterway development said today that defeat of the proposed waterway treaty should be regarded as a postponement, rather than abandonment of the seaway project. “We have only begun to fight,” said Charles P. Craig, of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewater Association. “OUr opposition has now come into the open. The President has not abandoned his determination and we shall support him until the day this treaty is ratified.” The treaty which the senate refused yesterday to ratify is not dead, it may be revived at any time unless its opponents are successful in parliamentary moves designed to shelve it permanently. While proponents of the treaty command a majority of votes in the senate it will not be possible to sidetrack the treaty definitely. Treaty supporters came out of the fight with forty-six votes. They needed fifty-nine to ratify—twothirds of those present. There were forty-two votes against the treaty. (Both Senator Van Nuys and Senator Robinson of Indiana voted for the treaty.) 'Failure of the senate to ratify the seaway treaty only postponed the inevitable fulfillment of the seaway,” Mr. Craig said. ’“We have seen reflected in actual senate votes the clear lines of opposition as represented by the coalition of special interests so knit into an unholy alliance of political opportunism as to defeat the will of the people.” Mr. Craig’s vigorous denunciation of treaty opposition failed to elicit and rejoinders from treaty opponents, who denied sectional interests or domination by special interests as the reasons for their position. Senator J. Hamilton Lewis <Dem.. 111.), leader of the opposition, said that no treaty would be successful until it “renounces any claim on Lake Michigan as an international waterway.” President Roosevelt has not abandoned hope of getting ratification. He said yesterday Canada could complete the navigation work on the St. Lawrence without help from the United States. Thousands of Chinese died of overwork during the building of the Great Wall and their bodies were buried beneath it by ShiHwang Ti. This is the ruler who burned all the Chinese classics, including the priceless works of Confucius.

RAILROAD WAGE BATTLE STARTS Compromise Is Predicted as Rivals Open Parley at Washington. By United Pries WASHINGTON, March 15—The latest wage battle of the railroad companies with the men who run the trams began in Washington today with the result—as usual—almost a foregone conclusion. The railr&aas say they want to add 5 per cent to their last 10 per cent wage “deduction” and call it a permanent 15 per cent salary reduction. The railroad unions say flatly they will accept no further reductions, that, in fact, they want their present wages restored to old prosperity levels. Each side, the United Press was iniormed reliably, is asking more than it expects in hope eventually of getting what it really wants. The railroads will be satisfied generally if the 10 per cent “reduction” is continued and made permanent, according to this information The unions similarly will not protest loudly at such action, but would be happier if they could get 5 per cent of the present “reduction” restored.

PUPILS TEASE SKUNK AT PLAY, SO TEACHER SENDS ’EM ALL AWAY

By United Pros WATERBURY. Conn., March 15.—A skunk that ambled across the Wolcott Center school yard during a recess period, when eighteen pupils were enjoying a brief respite from their studies, closed the school for the remainder of the day. Teddy Atwood, 9, struck the animal with a stick and stunned it. Frank Cicco, 7, was whirling it by the tail when the skunk regained consciousness and went into action. The teacher, eighteen pupils and the janitor went home and the schoolhouse was thrown open for a thorough airing. The skunk also departed.
