THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 1919.
TAFT VIEWS ON LEAGUE BROUGHT BEFOREJOUNCIL Four Amendments to Present Draft Are Proposed by Former President.
WASHINGTON. March 2. On March 21 William H. Taft sent to President Wilson In Paris four proposed amendments to the league of nations constitution. These amendments were sent over the White House cable and were forwarded af
ter the president In answer to an In
quiry as to whether they would be
welcome, said they would. On March 22 their receipt was acknowledged by the president. The president's subordinate proposed tc send the amendments without consulting: tho president, but Mr. Taft insisted that Inquiry should be made as to whether President Wilson desired to receive the suggestions, and the president's answer was to the effect that the sooner they were sent the Detter. Nature of Amendments. Briefly stated the four amendments are as follows: A definite revision of the Monroe Doctrine. A more definite statement as to when a member nation's obligations to the league may be terminated. A clearer statement with respect to the military force each nation shall provlda In case it is ever called on to supply troops. A more definite statement as to the vote that will be required to order action by the league.
The understanding here is that President Wilson has submitted these amendments and has asked that they be adopted. The amendments, Republican senators who are in town say, will go a long way toward meeting the objections to the tentative league constitution, though there is a general disposition to withhold comment until the texts of the amendments are made public, and until the character of other amendments that are being proposed to the constitution Is known. Compromise Spirit Evident. The spirit of compromise over the league Is apparent. All the dispatches from Tarls indicate a willingness on the part of the American delegates to have the treaty amended so as to avoid the threatened opposition in the senate. All the talk among the Republican senators is that if the treaty shall come back so amended as to meet the principal objections that senators had made to it, there will probably be no real opposition to the ratllicatlon. Thare have been intimations that Senator Lodge cabled certain proposed amendments to Paris, but there is no confirmation of this story. It is said at the White House that no amendments proposed by the Mass
achusetts senator have gone over the White House cable. At the same time the statement is made that had Senator Lodge asked to have amendments forwarded, as did former President Taft, they would have been sent. The Republican senators who signed the agreement not to support the league of nations constitution in its original form naturally feel that their action is responsible for the change in the treaty that is evidently being made.
K M C. A. Commuters on the Siberian 5:15 Take Out Newspapers and Ride 4,000 Miles
Seven Train, Loaded With Supplies, Always in Motion Between Russia and Pacific Ocean Three Hundred Cars a Month Used To Keep Club and Canteen Work Going. American business men groan over rail congestion and freight delays, but for a real transportation problem they should sample the Siberian brand nowadays. The miracle that 200 American railroad men are accomplishing there, according to transit experts who have just returned, can be Judged from the servica they are giving the Y.M.C.A. in the Far North. Three hundred cars a month are kept moving for the "Y," most of them over a route of 4,000 miles and return. All supplies have to ba sent across country this distance. At the western terminus other cars take what Is left of the supplies and go south, another four days' trip, or north, an extra 1,000 illes.

Every two week3 a Y.M.C.A. .supply train of fifteen cars covers the 4.000 miles from the Pacific to the western terminus, and seven such trains are always in motion. In addition to its euppiy trains, the "Y" runs club cars, movie show cars, libraries and even a dental car in which teeth ate pulled and filled all the way from Russia to
the Pacific Ocean at five cents each. To make the work of these trainmen easier, the Y.M.C.A. has established trainmen's clubs in the principal cities, and every possible comfort is provided for them. They have entertainments, lecture coupes, plenty of books and magazine and even schools.
WOMAN ARRAIGNS PACKING COMBINE
(By Associated Press) ST. LOUIS, March 28. Arraigning the packing Industry of the United States for alleged profiteering and quoting testimony adduced at the recent hearing conducted by the federal
i trade commission to substantiate her
statements, Miss Jessie R. Haver, legislative representative of the National Consumers' league and executive secretary of the Consumers' league of the District of Columbia, today addressed the National American Woman Suffrage association in jubilee convention here. "It was testified at the federal trade commission hearing that the profits of the packers in 1917 were 95 odd millions of "dollars as against 18 odd
millions in 1912," said Miss Haver. "A summary of the statements made by the packers themselves on their stock dividends shows that the amount, of profits capitalized in a little over three years by three of the packers is very nearly as much as the capitalipation of all five of the big packers at the beginning of the world war." Testimony showed that some packing concerns dealt in as many as 575 commodities, she declared.

VOCATIONAL MUSIC CLASS GIVES CONCERT
An interesting concert was given in High school chapel Friday morning by the orchestra and vocational music students. The first number was a march "The Four Jacks" by Losch. A "Southern Rhapsody" by Hosmer was well done. The two best numbers of the orchestra were the overture from "Naughty Marietta" by Victor Herbert and a suite. "Dwellers in the Western World" by John Philip Sousa. The overture was beautiful and Miss Mary Jones, concertmeister of the orchestra, gave the solo parts unusually well. Howard Monger and Elmer Hurrell gave a cornet duo "The Water Lily." Both are members of the orchestra. J. Corwin Brown, violinist, and his brother, Hiestand Brown, flutist, gave a duet which was warmly applauded by the students. Miss Helen Geers, soprano, sang "I Gathered a Rose" by l.oe. The program was concluded by tho march "The Peacemakers" by Alford. This composition contains the national music of Japan, Russia and America. Mr. Sloane. director of the orchestra, explained to the students the meaning of "suite" and overture" and what relation the overture has to the opera. The vocational music department will give a chapel program once each month. There were many visitors Friday morning. 1 Man is the only living thing that ever sleeps on its back.

PEPTIROPUS GOOD This Real Iron Tonic Combines Merit Economy and "Pep" Mado from a formula that uses iron in most digestible form, pepsin and gentian, great stomach tonics, nux and celery, the best vegetable remedies for the nerves, und also manganese and other valuable nutrients-there's no question of tho value of Peptiron as a blood builder and strengthener.
Tho larger size of Peptiron contains enough for a 'full month's treatment, while other' so-called iron preparations contain only one-half or less. The "pep" or promptness with which Peptiron does Its work Is noted by everyone who takes it. From the first dose the system responds to the treatment, and you realize you are at last using a medicine that begins right, continues and ends right. Better get a bottle of peptiron today. Take two Peptiron after each meal then comes good blood, good appetite, and pep. Adr.

NO MORE RHEUMATISM
Torturing Pains and Swollen Joints Vanish When Rheuma Is Used.
At last a real remedy for rheumatism! And a good one it must be when good druggists everywhere sell it on the no-cure no-pay basis. Rheumatics should hail the newa with great rejoicing, for it is surely a remarkable remedy and has a record of almost unbelievable cures. Read what J. F. Oliver of Albany, Ga., says about it: "I had sciatic rheumatism for two years, and tried every medicine offered
for rheumatism. Tried many doctors, was treated at one of the best Southern sanatoriums, and if I improved any I did not realize it. I am a conductor on the Central of Georgia railroad, and had secured a pass to Hot Springs, Ark., to take treatment. About that time I saw Rheuma advertised and concluded to try it. I abandoned my trip, took three bottles, and now feel as well as ever. I would not take a hundred thousand dollars for what Rheuma has done for me. If you have rheumatism in any form,
don't delay try Rheuma today. A large bottle is not expensive, and your, money back if it does not give you quick and joyful relief. Adv.

THERE IS NOTHING equal to Chamberlain's Tablets for constipation. When the proper dose is taken their action is so agreeable and so natural that you do not realize that it is the effect of a medicine. These tablets possess tonic properties that aid in establishing a natural and regular action of the bowels. Chamberlain's Tablets have
cured many cases of chronic constipation.
