PRESIDENT BUTTLES ftGAIllSTJXEMPTIOfi Wilson May Have Difficulty in Forcing Congress to Abrogate Law Passed Less Than Year Ago.

DEMOCRATS OPPOSE Senator O'Gorman and Senator Root Have Expressed Themselves As Being in Harmony With Executive. WASHINGTON, Feb. 24. Before the present session of Congress closes the dark, ominous clouds which have threatened the prestige of the United States in its international relations probably will have disappeared. This Is the expectation of President Wilson, Mho has now avowedly taken charge of the American foreign policy himself. He is now employing all the influence of his office in bringing about a new and more wholesome international feeling. President Wilson has definitely committed himself on the question of exempting American coastwise shipping from the payment of Panama tolls. His action on this subject was not unexpected. When he announced that he was absolutely opposed to the exemption, which va written upon the statute books at the last session of Conpress, he did merely that which had leen anticipated for months. Whether right or wrong, his action has gone Jar towards increasing his popularity and prestige abroad. However, the President has not yet von his fight in opposition to the exemption and there is strong evidence that he will have difficulty in doing bo. The Adamson act, containing the exemption clause, passed both the House and Senate less than a year ago with huge majorities, and it is not believed in Capitol Circle that either house of Congress will reverse itself without a bitter struggle. Some Favor Exemption. There is strong Democratic sentiment in congress in favor of the exemption, basing itself on the general assumption htat since the United States built the Panama canal it is entitled 4o a little preferential treatment. This sentiment is led by Senator O'Gorman of New York, who is a man of fighting qualities, and who left the white house a few days ago Ftating that the president's logic in favor of the repeal of the Adamson act had failed to make an impression on him. President Wilson, has so far failed to find any man in his own party who will lead his fight in the senate. Most of the administration leaders are already shoulder deep in work and worry with the legislative proTam before them. Senator Root is he most conspicuous advocate of the president's contention on the minority side, but Mr. Wilson will need to have an able and vigorous Democratic coadjutor to win the Senate to his cause. The other great international question now before the United States is Mexico. In the past few weeks the eituntion has been materially changed by the raising of the embargo on arms and ammunition, allowing the Constitutionalists to import rifles and artillery from the United States on the Fame basis as the Huertistas. The effects of this action have not yet become visible, although the Constitutionalists arc now prosecuting a more vigorous policy in norther Mexico than ever before. It has notably quickened nil the anti-Huerta forces in the republic and has served to put an end to the restlessness of Kuropean nations under the American "watchful waiting" policy. Policy More Vigorous. The llftinsi of the embargo is the beginning of a more vigorous Mexic; 1 policy. P.efore many weks ha ".v passed, other measures will have b'-r. taken by th? United States calculated lo show that complete cooperation between thh: nation and Kuropean power? has been reached on Mexican affairs. A smaller diplomatic tangle, but one exceedingly difficult, is that presented by the claim of Colombia against the United States government. Colombia wants redress for the filching of Panama from her. She lias been necking recognition of her claim before CoiiKret-ses for several years. It is probable the present, congress will compeMsritf her, although not to the ' of her claim, which is $25,000,000. . si-m.-k lit. Wilson has recognized that his conduct towards the Colombian claim, no less than towards Mexico, will be taken as a keynote of his Uat in-American policy. The enemies of the United States in South America are very active at present, and are seeking some method of undermining growing American influence here. Germany !s particularly aggressive in opposing the United States in Brazil and Argentina. The slightest act on the part of the Wilson adminisration having even the surfa'ce, appearance of aggression and injustice will be heralded far and wide in Uatin-Am-erica.

Congress Should Probe All Concerns Davis

WASHINGTON. Feb. 24i "The government should not only probe those concerns it suspects of wrongdoing," said Joseph E. Davis, U. S.

This work might be done by this bureau or some other bureau as congress thought fit," he declared, "but should be attended to immediately." Such information might include copies of charters and bylaws, names of directors and officers, kinds and amounts of capital stock, bonds and other similar obligatlions, statements of assets and liabilities, and of profit and loss, or income, dividends both cash and stock, the names of other corporations in which it holds stock, together with the respective amounts in each case; other companies in which its officers or directors are either officers or directors, and their stock holdings in such other companies, agreements made with other corporat'ons engaged in a similar or related business, with respect to control of markets or territory, price fixing, etc." said Mr. Davis. "Such returns should be made annually by such corporations in a manner prescribed by the government.

MAINE CONGRESSMAN LOOKS LIKE E. ROOT

John Andrew Peters, who was elected to the place in congress left vacant by the death of Forrest Goodwin, looks very much like Senator Elihu Root, and as a result is receiving much more attention than does the average new congressman in Washington. Tourists who are constantly on the lookout for famous statesmen are frequently seen pointing out Mr. Peters and whispering to each other that the gray haired, well groomed. I distinguished looking legislator is Senj ator Root, of New York. Mr. Peters ; is a Republican and a lawyer, and i just before his election to congress I was made speaker of the Maine legislature in which body he has served since 1908.

JONES ATTEMPTS TO OPEJUIP ROADS Highway Superintendent Gets Assistance of Farmers in Work.

Under the direction of County Highway Superintendent Jones, road supervisors in all road districts began the work today of opening up the highways for traffic. Since Sunday night there have been very few roads In the country not impassible. On several highways the snow piled as high as the fence topB yesterday and on others the drifts were from four to five feet deep. Nearly every farm house was a prison for its inmates, who had access to the barns and other buildings only by digging paths through the deep drifts. These paths were frequently filleu tip within an hour after they bad been opened. Road supervisors found the drifts so deep and packed so hard that the road drags were of no avail in opening up the highways, and gangs of farmers had to organized to shovel the drifts away. Walter Ratliff. living northwest of the city, telephoned to a friend in the city today that some of the drifts were packed so hard that a man could walk on them without breaking through. Roe Kendrick, living northwest of the city, got his dairy wagon into Richmond today by hitching six horses to it. It took him four hours to go three miles. Unless there is a thaw it will probably be several days before the more important highways of the county are all cleared for traffic. Rural mail carriers will not be able to make complete route deliveries for several days. FEEL MISERABLE? Out of sorts, depressed, pain In the back Electric Bitters renews your health and strength.
