Although the character of the in- formation received from Paris has not been made public, officials have expressed pleasure with the operation of the system. An indication of some Senate opposition to the arrangement, however, appeared yesterday with the introduction of a resolution by Sena- tor La Follette, republican, Wisconsin, condemning President Harding for appcinting American representatives to the allied councils in Europe and proposing a declaration by the Senate hat it is contrary to American ideals and traditions for the government of the United States to participate 1n any manner” in such councils At the same time assurances were given the President that there was little criticism among republican sen- ators for the appointments, and that the opposition of a small number was not serious. The La Follette resolution is ex- pected to be discussed in a few days. —_— WAR ON NIGHT SPEEDERS. Oyster Determined to Stop Reckless Driving After Midnight.
