THE 'BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1919. COMPROMISE ON PEACE PACT AIM OFIIITCIICQCK "Difficulty in Situation In valid in White House and Stubborn Men in Sen ate," Senator Says. United States Senator G. M. Hitchcock told a company of friends at the Omaha club last night that he hopes, when he returns to Wash ington next week, that he will be able to discuss the treaty with Pres ident Wilson and to prevail upon the nation's chief executive to agree to a compromise arrangement which the senator believes would be rati fied by at least 64 of the senators. "The difficulty in the situation is the invalid in the White House and the stubborn men in the senate," was one of the statements by the senator during his brief review of recent his tory at the national capital. Personal Welcome. ' The function at the club was ar ranged by members as a personal rather than a political expression of welcome home to the senator. As W. F. Gurley expressed it in his in troduction of the senator, the at tendants were "pro-leaguers, anti- . ' 1 I l'. i... ' leaguers ana mnu rcscrvauuiueia. "The rule of cloture which the senator so successfully enforced in the United States senate is strictly in force here tonight insofar as de- ' . I Hf, et.i1 Dale 19 CU11CCTIICU, ivxi. juiitjr gam, facetiously. . "The league 'of nations has be come almost a second nature to me and I doubt whether I have the ca pacity or the vocabulary to discuss" anything else," said the senator. "The war was won and we were confronted with a settlement of peace. The United States, alone among all the nations, went to the peace conference with no demand but that there should be permanent peace; it was a demand that peace and justice should prevail. Remarkable Feature. "It is a remarkable thing that de lay of ratification is only in the United States and that the things that are being objected to were the things that this country insisted should be in the treaty. "The discussion on the amend ments and the treaty in the senate has been most fair, but it developed some interesting characteristics. Senator Reed attacked the treaty because he held that most of the rations were colored, and another senator objected because he be lieved we would be under the dom ination of the British empire. ' "Eighty .senators, have voted for the treaty in some form and at dif ferent times, and I am hoping that when we meet next month there will be af. least 64 who will agree on a compromise, but there is a sick man in the Whites House and he does not favor a compromise." -. The senator related details of the president'! trip to Paris, how he went away a strong man and re turned in a "fatigued condition, and then went on a speaking trip to create such public setiment as he be lieved would force the senate to ratify the treaty in its original form. V Cannpt Let Treaty Die. "It soon developed when the treaty came before the senate that aa far as the settlement with Ger manyis concerned, there was little opposition," be continued. ' "As far as Germany and the other countries are concerned, ratification will be finished next week and the treaty will go into effect. Ai far as the United- States is concerned, we will still be at war with Germany, technically speaking, operating1 un der the armistice entered into a year ago. , "Even aside from the league of nations, we cannot afford to let this .treaty die. The other nations -have made their peace with Germany. We cannot avoid making a settlement and we can never obtain such favor able terms as this one provides." The senator closed his talk by fiving a description of Washington taring the busy days of the last few years and referring to the work be ing done by the departments and bureaus in connection with after-the-war business.

Bituminous coal mines east of the Mississippi river in 1917 made "what might be termed fabulous profits," the gen eral overage being from 100 to 150 per cent on invested capital, accord ing to a statement issued tonight by Secretary Glass, based on data fur nished by experts of the internal revenue bureau. Coal operators generally -in the United States in the years 1914 and 1915 lost money when normal- de pletion and depreciation are taken into consideration," the statement said. "What is meant by this is that proper item in fixing costs is deoreciation of plant and depletion of the cost or value of the coal in the ground. "In the latter part ot mo all coal companies in the United Mates, save those in the extreme west, began making money, with the result that the operations tor the year mo gen erally show a profit of from 10 to 35 per cent on capital invested. "In 1917 all bituminous coal mines east of the Mississippi river made what "might - be termed fabulous profits, the general average being from 100 to 150 per cent invested capital, the range being from 15 to 800 per cent. ,'.. "In 1918 conditions were not so good in the Appalacian and central comnetitive districts, profits gen erally being reduced 25 to 30 per cent less than tor tne preceding: year, the range being from 15 to 300 per cent on invested capital. In the west conditions in 1918 were better than in 1917, the profits in the Rocky mountain districts ranging as high as 400 per cent on invested capital. "Unofficial figures for 1919, incom plete, of course, indicate that profits of the operators are less than for 1918, some of the operators claiming to have actually lost money."

By E. C. SNYDER. Special Comnpondent ef Tha Bae. Washington, Nov. 26. Senator Curtis of Kansas, with a desire to know the facts underlying the re- isnf ffirA rAa V iL. , try, and in Washington and Omaha ELECT OFFICERS in the closing days of the last ses sion calling upon the judiciary com mittee to undertake an investigation of the causes leading to the out breaks and if possible trace them to origin in. the radical element now extremely active in certain sections of the country. The resolution was adopted by the judiciary committee and a sub committee consisting of Senators Dillingham of Vermont, Kellogg of Minnesota and Walsh of Montana was appointed to make the investi gation. The committee, however, is in doubt as to just how far it can go into its inquiry, and as a conse quence Senator Curtis 1 has been gathering a mass of material bear ing upon these riots, which he will lay before the subcommittee next week. Eberstein Answers Letter. After the introduction of the reso lution and its adoption by the sen ate, Senator Curtis wrote Mayor Ed Smith of Omaha- as to any facts he might be in possession of showing an active participation of the I. W. W. in the recent Omaha disturb ance. This letter the mayor referred to Chief Eberstein, who, after some weeks, answered Senator Curtis' in terrogatives in a most general way, paying little or no attention to the Omaha riot. Among other things Chief Eber stein says that on two occasions, while he was connected with the Department of Justice, he raided the I. W. W. headquarters in Omaha and found large amounts of sedi tious literature. A numbef of more radical members were arrested and the bulk of them were kept in Doug- j las countv iail for upwards of a vear, finally being discharged from "custody few at a time by direction of the United States attorney for Th T. W. W. were not raided again until November 16, when Chief CDersiein received niBiiuuiiuiia num the governor of Nebraska, through the county attorney, to maice an other raid on th bunch. H did this, taking a large amount of sedi tious literature. ' . I. W. W. Roused Nebroes. As to the I. W. W. being respon sible, for the incident of the colored neoote in Omaha to stir up trouble, Chief Eberstein passes over the Omaha outbreak and lynching of the negro with the statement that he has "found some evidence that the I. W. W. were endeavoring to incite the colored people to race rioting." -Senator ; Curtis has been , advised 'that a report on the Omaha riot from the Chamber of Commerce is on the way and he hopes to have a report from General Wood as to '.he responsibility of the radical element in inciting the pe6ple to riot for fancied wrongs done them by-the white population. - ' Longrcss,,safd benatoT Curtis to d,ay, ' 'has always claimed that it had no jurisdiction of these matters. That they properly belonged to the state. My judgment is that the state having failed to take cogni zance of this very serious situation and having failed to enforce the law and punish the guilty thereby pro tecting its citizens in their lives and property it becomes "the bounden duty of congress to take notice of the conditions, investigate the facts and make a report as to what legisla tion is needed.
