PRESIDENT IS MISLEADING
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Mr.
Dodson. the "Liver Tone" Man,
Tells the Treachery of
Calomel.
Calomel loses you a day! You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick-
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con-
stipated and all knocked out and believe
you need a dose of dangerous calomel
just remember that your druggist sells
for a few cents a large bottle of Dod-
son's Liver Tone, which is entirely veg-
etable and pleasant to take and is a per-
fect substitute for calomel. It is guar-
anteed to start your liver without stir-
ring you up inside, and cannot salivate.
Don't take calomel! It cannot be
trusted any more than a leopard or a
wildcat. Take Dodson's Liver Tone,
which straightens you right up and
makes you feel fine. Give it to the
children because it is perfectly harm-
less and doesn't gripe. (Adv.)

WASHINGTON. 1> Sept! -5—in as
sorting that the itritish Empire could not
outvote the United States in the League
of Nations under the covenant as now
drawn, President Wilson, either through
"misunderstanding or misrepresentation"
is "misleading" the American people, Sen
ator New (Republican) of Indiana de-
clared in an address today In the Senate.
Launching a general attack on the league
as a "one-sided" arrangement under which
this country would be required to protect
the territory of other nations without need
Ing reciprocal service from them. Senator
New criticised many details of the cove-
nant and dwelt at length on the question
of the relative vote of Great Britain aud
this country in the league assembly.
Details are the essence of such an impor-
tant matter as this, the Senator declared,
yet the President has called upon the Sen-
ate to »"forget the details." The Presi-
dent. he said, would substitute this phrase
for the slogan of "safety first." What
would happen on a railroad, the Senator-
asked. if it replaced Its "safety first"
signs with an injunction to Its employes
to "forget the details."
Taking issue with the President's as
sertion that Great Britain's six votes in
the assembly would be no more powerful
than the one vote of this country because
action of the assembly must be by unanl-
I mous vote, the Indiana Senator declared
i Mr, Wilson "overlooks the fact that in
those disputes in which America is di
I recti.v concerned we have uo vote at all."
He also pointed to the provision In Article
15 under which any dispute referred to
| the assembly may be decided by a major
ity vote and to the assembly's power of
approval by a majority vote of the four
'elective members of the council.
I As to the right of withdrawal from the
! league, Senator New declared, the United
States would not be the solo Judge of
: whether it had discharged its intermit ion
al obligations at any time if might wish to
withdraw but must submit the question
to arbitration. In support of this asser
tion, ho contended that under Article l.'l it
is "expressly stated the Interpretation oT
thi covenant as well as any pact which
might constitute a breach of International
obligation Is generally suitable for arbi
tratlon." Declination of any nation to ar
bit rate would mean submission of the j
question to the council, he added.
"One < the simplest elements of com |
men ser.s ' -:ii«l the Senator In conclusion, 1
"Is the minding of one's own business
and the keeping out of other people's bus!
ness This treaty with its league attach-
ment provides for the systematic Inter
ference of the United States in the affairs
of every other nation."

Washington. i> c. Sept 25. Senate
Investigation of the Nation wide strike of
steel workers to determine whether remedial
action can be taken by the 1'ederal Gov-
ernment, was opened today with John l it/.
Patrick, chairman of the union committee
conducting the strike, as the first witness
before the Kducation and Labor Committe*1.

counsel for the steel strikers, who. at 'he
outse(. asked what assurance had been
given by Judge Klbert II Gary, chairman
of the board of the United States steel
Corporation, that he would appeur before
the committee next Wednesday.
Senator Ivouyon replied that Judge Ga*y
had telephoned him that he would be pros
ont "Wednesday, aud added that until that
time we will not question his being here "
Kublu requested that the committee
place in the record correspondence between
Joseph Tumulty, secretary to the Presi
dent. Samuel Gompers. president «»f the
American Federation of Labor, and Chair-
man Fitzpatriek, regarding efforts to post-
pone tin> strik>\ senator Kenyon asked
Itubin to read the telegrams and letters,
which already have been published.
Fitanatrick opened his statement with
what lie said w.is a brief history of labor
conditions In the steel industry.
History of Fight.
"With the creation of the Steel Corpo-
ration, a campaign was begun with the
object of pushing organized workers out
of the mills." he said. "A great sum of
money, I don't know whether it was f'J.
000.000 or $110,000,000, was appropriated. In
recent years labor has begun to realize tjie
tremendous importance of the steel indue
try and its influence on other industries.
"While we were getting the 8-hour day
and better working conditions elsewhere,
the steel mills still operated with very
long hours aud with wages below the print-
er line. Labor understood then the neces
sity of organizing the steel industry for
the purpose of controlling its effects on
the others, and at the last two conventions
of the Federation of Labor the step was
authorized."
Fitzpatrlck said representatives of L'i
international unions affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor met in Chi-
cago about a year ago and effected a cam-
paign committee to organize the steel work
ers. Samuel Gompers was elected chairman
and William 1>. Foster secretary. Men and
money, the witness said, were assembled,
but funds were so limited that the lnlti.il
organization efforts were confined to the
Calumet district, including Chicago and
Gary, ind. «
.Men Sought Kellef.
"The men iu the steel mills." Fitzpatriek
continued, "were looking for relief. 1'hey
had no hope. They responded in large
numbers and it was only a short time un-
til we had a very successful organization."
"i P to that time there had been no
unionism in the steel mills';' asked Chair-
man Kenyon.
"No," Fitzpatriek replied.
"About that time, October. 1918, the steel
corporation was resorting to every effort
to force action on the part of the men or
of the labor organization to spread their
influence. They announced establishment
of the 8-hour day, and we knew that was
an effort to prevent our organization."
Senator Jones (Democrat) of New Mex-
ico, asked whether the employes hail made
application to the American Federation of
Labor for organization or whether the
movement had been initiated by the Amer-
ican Federation of Labor.
"The American Federation of Labor in
itiated the movement." Fitzpatrlck replied.
"Was there no movement of the men In-
viting the movement?" asked Senator
Jones.
"No. only as the men met In different
localities anil expressed thplr desires."
"\Vh,v was it incumbent on the American
Federation of'Labor to organize the steel
industry?" asked Senator Jonas.
Industrial Had Spot.
"It was a bad spot in the industrial
situation." Fitzpatrlck replied. in the
steel Industry the hours are long, the
wages small and the treatment—you can t
describe the treatment "
These conditions, he added, led other
