Copeland, Junior senator from New York, Is the only physician in the senate, if ones memory serves. He is not only a doctor but a professor of medicine, health officer and writer on health and sanitation. And he has an idea that the senate Is a death chamber because It has no windows. The senate has passed a resolution embodying his ideas for improvement in the ventilation. The next step will be the drafting of plans by the capitol architect. And then tbe senate can get in touch with the outside world, if it so desires.

It was certain, however, that Secretary Hughes would transmit tha memorandum without delay to Secretary Mellon, since, as chairman of the debt funding commission created by congress, he is charged with the conduct of negotiations with foreign governments for payment of their obligations to the United States. Although the Paris authorities acted informally in presenting the memorandum to Ambassador Herrick, and thereby stripped it of the status of an official document, it is hoped by administration leaders Wlashington that it will be found to contain sug- gestions of such importance as will justify them in opening formal discussions with Paris, out of which an agreement for payment of the debt may come. In this connection, however, it was pointed out no opinion on this hoped for development could be expected until Secretary Mellon, acting with the members of the debt commission, of whom Secretary Hughes is one, had had an opportunity carefully to study the Clementel memorandum and determine upon a course of actionA meeting of the commission for this purpose, it was said, probably will be called by Secretary Mellon early this week. glass-panele- d Liska Wins Good Roads Essay Prize HimmimiitniHMiHtifliiiMiniMmiimmiitHiiwiiimiirtMHiiH tmitmtumiiuiiiimiiminiiimiiaiMHiimiRfHmiiiititffiHmtMiiMiiiniiimmtiiiiuMiiUHiMiMnHiiHiumniimumiimiiMininMimiiimNUiimu John Liska, high scltool youth of Wisconsin Rapids, Wis., (portrait herewith) is announced as winner of the H.
