CHANGES FEW
IN NEW TEXT OF
PEACE TREATY
' .
Revision of Treaty Pakas It
Longer, Although Original
Pact Is Adhered to
Rigidly.
Paris. June 20. (By the Associat
ed Press:) The alterations and
amendments incorporated by the
council of four in the revised treaty
make it a somewhat longer docu
ment than the draft originally sub
mitted to the Germans- and pub
lished in the United States. It now
contains 214 nacrpc fiv mnr than
the original, and even this was ef
fected by closer paging.
At various points the drafting
committee sought to adhere as far
as possible to the original number
ing of the articles and contrived to
njake up for insertions or omissions
by combining or splitting articles.
, As at ifrst arranged, the new in
strument still contains the original
U parts and 440 articles.
Sifesian Problem Changed.
The article assuring Silesian coal
and minerals 'to German 'industry
now reads:
"Poland undertakes to permit, for
a period of 15 years, the exportation
NSS.
The
Wise Builder
No man ever built a house
without thinkingover carefully
what kind of lumber to use,
what kind of a roof to put on,
and what kind of paint to buy.
This careful consideration
must go even farther not
only to the plumbing but to
the bathroom fixtures as well.
The best-built houses today
; are equipped with . Thomas
Maddock'sbathroomfixtures.
We will cheerfully furnish all
information you desire.

to Germany of the products of mines
in any part of Upper Silesia trans
ferred to Poland, in accordance with
the present treaty, without export
duties or restrictions," and to per
mit the Germans to purchase these
products on the same terms asnhe
Poles."
In the revised draft "the principal
allied and associated powers" under
take to establish Danzig as a free
city. This language, in which the
responsibilty of the five great pow
ers for the creation of the new city
and state is definitely assumed, is
substituted for the original phrase
ology declaring merely that "Danzig
is established as a free city."
Disarmament Clause Revamped.
The new article which replaces
the original provision for the dis
armament of Germany providing for
reduction to a specified point within
two months now reads in the Eng
lish version. . j
"Up to the time at which Germany ,
is admitted as a member of the
league of nations, the German army
shall not possess armament greater
than that fixed in the table submit- j
ted in this treaty," and continues:
"Germany agrees that after she
has become a member of the league,
the armaments fixed by the table
shall remain in force until modf-cd
by the council of the league. Fur
thermore Germany hereby agrees to
observe the decisions of the council
in this respect."
Boundary Changes Important
Important changes are revealed
by a comparison of the old and new
drafts relative to the new Polish
frontiers and the Silesian plebiscite.
The frontier changes correspond
generally with those outlined in re
cent dispatches but bring the Pol'ah
frontier nearer to Breslau on the
east than was at first contemplated,
and give Poland a new section cf
the Prussian province of Pomerania
in exchange for the coast strip of
the same province returned to Ger
many, although the council of four
planned for a while to make all
Pamerania, Germany on historic
grounds.
Some of the changes in the treaty
can, be indicated only by reference
to maps of the largest scale.
The provisions for a plebiscite in
the Silesian regions show that the
vote will be taken in virtually all of
Upper Silesia except small areas in
the southwestern and northern cor
ners which were awarded uncondi
tionally to Czecho-Slovakia and Po
land respectively.
Time Set for Plebiscite.
The plebiscite must be held be
tween the sixth and 18th months
after the signature of the peace
treaty. .The same conditions as re
gards the retirement ot uerman
armies and officials and the disband
ment of workmen's soviet, which
were included in the Schleswig-
Holstein and east Prussian plebis
cite provisions are found in that af
fecting Silesia.
A significant article of the treaty
prohibits political prosecutions by
either the Polish or German gov
ernments for any activities during
the plebiscite in Silesia.
Urge Kiawanis Club
To Assist In Drive
n i 1 r l
ror improved roaas
W. B. Cheek, chairman of the
Douglas County Good Roads' asso
ciation, appealed to the individual
members of the Kiawanis club to
help arouse interest in the $3,000,000
bond issue for road improvement, at
a luncheon at the Chamber of Com
merce, yesterday.
Mr.. Cheek expressed the belief
that the bond issue would easily
carry at the election to be held
Tuesday if-people would vote. There
has been nonorganized opposition on
the part of tax payers in the couniy
to the issuing of the bonds, Mr.
Cheek said.
He also called attention to the
fact that women heartily endorse
the plan fof better highways. A
circular letter will be sent to eao.h
member of the Kiawanis club urging
them to co-operate in "putting over"
the bond issue. .

in the $120,000,000 damage suit pend
ing against them here. The sheriff
sent out the summons yesterday.
The plaintiffs are Louise Osborne
Ferson and Grace Osborne, who
claim to be the inventors of a baked
pork and bean biscuit .which they
say was manufactured by .the defen
dants without their consent
The Standard Oil Co., and its
various subsidiaries in many lines
of business are among the 49 de
fendants named.
CONGRESS TO
PROBE MEXICAN
AFFAIRS SOON
Republicans Ready to Reverse
Wilson Policy; Urge Pro
tection of American In
terests In South. .
By JUSTIN M'GRATH.
Washington, 'June 20. Congress
is believed to be ready to reverse
its policy with respect to Mexico.
lac resolution introduced in the
house by Representative Gould of
New York, calling for the appoint
ment of a committee of three sen
ators, and three representatives to
make a full investigation in Mexico
is the initial move of the new pol
icy to which the republican major
ity practically is committed.
Representative Gould's resolution
has the hearty endorsement of Sen
ator Fall, New Mexico, who is the
senate authority on Mexican affairs.
Senator Fall told me today that he
not only approved of Mr. Gould's
resolution, but that he would do all
in his power to have it adopted by
the senate after it passed the house.
Senator Fall explained that he did
not wish to introduce the same res
olution in the senate at this time
because he did not wish to lay him
self open to any charge of compli
cating the situation with respect to
the peace treaty. He will not. there
fore, present the Gould resolution
to the senate until after the peace
treaty shall have been disposed of
by the senate. But the very mo
ment, that is dona, he will introduce
the resolution and will persistently
urge immediate action upon it. The
support of the republican majority
is assured.
Sends Ten Envoys.
Ever since President Wilson took
office, official information of con
ditions in Mexico has been held
within the jurisdiction of the execu
tive department. Whenever condi-.
Ijions became acute, and there was
complaint of outrages upon Ameri
cans, and American interests, the
president sent a special investigator
to Mexico to ascertain and report
upon the facts. In all the president
sent ten special envoys to Mexico
from 1913 to the present time. They
are:
John Lind, of Minnesota; William
Bayard Hale, Pennsylvania; Duval
West, Texas; Paul Fuller, sr.. New
York; Louis Delvalle , California;
George C. Caruthers; Leon Canova.
Florida; John R. Silliman. New
York;' James Linn Rogers, Ohio,
and Maj. Gen. Hugh L. Scott, form
er chief of staff. U. S. A.
All of these investigators spent a
great deal of time in Mexico and
submitted to the president and the
State department elaborate reports.
None of these reports was ever
made public. The president refused
all requests for then and the demo
cratic majority in congress sustained
him.
Now the complexion of congress
is changed. The republicans have
the majority in both branches. The
republican majoritr wants to know
the facts about Mexico and from
what I'learned today, is determined
to have them. Republican leaders
are outspoken in their opinion that
the president's Mexican policy of
"watchful waiting" and secret re
ports has been a serious mistake.
They favor pitiless publicity. They
intend to get all the facts and to lay
them before the American people
so that public opinion in the' United
States can be intelligently formed
on the Mexican situation, and a pol
icy decided upon by congress which
will have the approval of the people.
Will Protect Property.
The Wilson-Byran idea of leaving
the $500,000,000 of American invest
ments in Mexico at the mercy of
roving bandits has no support
among the republican leaders. They
assert there ought to be security
for -American lives and Amefican
property in Mexico. They are con
fident that is the opinion of the ma
jority Of the people of the United
States. They expect opinion in the
United States on the subject of
Mexico practically will be unani
mous, when full revelation is made
of all of the outrages against Amer
ican lives and property committed
in Mexico during the past eight
years.
Those who are in a position to
know the facts, say the record, when
made public, will prove apalling and
vill create a demand for action that
will forever put an end to such
aggressions as have been perpetrat
ed with impunity under the "non
intervention" policy of the present
administration.
Communists Plot Attack
on Austrian Government
Copenhagen, June 20. Unrest
continues in Vienna, according to
dispatches from the Austrian capital
today and preparations are being
made for a new communist attempt
against the government. Commun
ist headquarters, it is said, have
been converted into a fortress.
Hungarian communist troops, the
dispatches say, are expected to cross
the Austrian frontier near Neudoer
fel, south of Weiner-Neustadt, and
to march on Woellersdorff, to occu
py the munition factories there. Aus
trian troops have been sent to Weiner-Neustadt.
Transcontinental
Flyer to Drop Letter
Over City Next Week
A. J. P. Bertschy, Omaha's me
chanical genius, now in the engi
neering division of the United
States air service, received word yes
terday that an official message will
-be sent him by the airplane which
makes the flight from New York to
San Francisco next week. The no
tification was as follows:
"Dayton, Ohio. I am sending you
an official letter by Captain Francis
in his Martin transatlantic plane.
He will leave New York, probably
some time next week, just when I
don't know. He will drop the let
ter as near as possible over Fort
Omaha, attached to a paper mache
parachute. Colonel Muhlenberg."
Mr. Bertschy has notified both
Fort Omaha and Fort Crook to be
on the lookout for the letter.
Mr. Bertschy was recently as
signed to work in Omaha for the
engineering division of the United
States air service on the problem of
a light armor plate for airplanes.
