BRITISH LAR6ELY AFFECTED
Rejects Theory of Buparßevareignty
of an International Police Force;
Earty Return to Normal State.
Paris.—The plana for a league of na
tions have been reduced to very defi
nite form. The general Indications are
that the statesmen of the prinoipal
nations are steadfly drawing together
on a structure which will have the*
support ot all.
It is understood that the general
plan which is now most approved In
substance by all the parties concerned
rejects the theory ot the super-sov
ereignty of aa international police
force. It also contemplates the work
ing out, as the development of the
league progrenes, of the most delcste
quelstton of all—disarmament—which
particularly affects the British navy.
The same principle, It is proposed
•hall apply to the other nations asso
ciated in the war against Germany.
Such a plan will delegate to varioue
commissions and committees detailed
problems which Shall be reported
with recommendations to the league
itself. The probability of such a plan
-being adapted Justifies previous fore
casts that the principal accomplish
ments of the peace conference aa it
now sits in Paris will be agreement
on broad general principles, leaving
the detalla to be applied in accord
therewith and the making of a pre
liminary peace which will return the
world at the earliest moment possible
to Its normal status.

BILL OP WAR DEPARTMENT TO

SION OF CONGRESS.
THE DECISION DEFERS DEBUTE
Military Committee of Houss In Con
ference With Baker snd March
Practically In Agreement
Washington.—The house military
committee practically" reached an
agreement lp conference with Secre
tary Baker and Gonorai March, chief
of staff, to postpone the war depart
ment reorganisation bill until the next
eeastfon of Congress and with it, a
huge part of the prospective debate
over tho future military policy of tho
country.
A suggestion by Chairman Dent that
a legislative rider on the army appro
priation bill continuing tho existing
war organization of the department
and the -gular army for another year,
a substitute for the reorganization
measure, met with the approval ot
of Mr. Bator and apparently with thai
of a'majority of the .committee mem
bers.
Tho proposal grew out ot a confer
enoe at which Secretary Baker and
the chief pf staff explained the reor
ganization measure framed by the de
partment, providing for a regular
army of 600,000 men to be raised by
voluntary enlistment on a fiat three
year basis. The Mil also would liove
made permanent the absolute control
exercised by the chief of stall as a
wartime necessity.
Chairman Dent said It would be im
possible to get such a bill through
Congress in tho present sesxkm. Com
mittee members agreed, pointing out
that the war department bill on its
face appeared to be a mil II tary policy
measure which abandoned the thoosy
of universal military obligation. Mr.
Baker instated that this wan not the
case; that no attempt to fix the na
tion's policy aa to a peace time army
was Involved.
PRESS RELATIONS DELICATE
WITH THE PEACE CONFERENCE
Paris.—"Tho problems between the
peace delegates and tho press, that is,■
between the governments and public
opinion Is made particularly delicate,"
says Tho Temps, "by the following
considerations:
"On the one hand, equality of treat,
ment for the press of all countries
must be assured. As tho United
States and Great Britain are reluctant
to impose restrictions on their news
papers, the only course ia to allow the
widest tolerance to all. |
"On the other hand, it would be
harmful to lay bare to the enemy gov
ern men t differences of opinion which
Inevitably arise In dlscussionx between
delegations. The very essence of ev
ery debate is that contradictions
(Should arise. Such contradictions
wTll asmrodly be reconciled, but ft
would be very unfavorable if Ger

Meuse front, where the Americana

"Your men have the devil's own
punch. They will get away with all
that. Go to It"

gun, "a happy opportunity to tall you
all the good things I think of the
American army and of the part tt
played on our side.
"Your soldiers were superb. They
came to us young, enthusiastic and
carried forward with vigorous ideal
ism and they marched to battle with
admirable gallantry.
"Yes, they were superb. There Is
no other word. When thoy appeared
our armies were, as you know, fa
ttguPd by three years of relentless
struggle and tho mantle of war laid
heavily upon them. We were mag
nificently comforted by the virility of
your Americans."
