Every preparation within tha bounds
of physical possibility had been made
tor the arrival of the soldiers ami ito

tiicde of automobiles were available and
r.i rapidly as the roea, could e assigned

they slept between sheets, the guests of
Ihe people of Ralcigii, and. today the
welcome will continue.
Scores aud Mores of peop!o were dis
appointed last night that they didn't
have some of the incn to entertain.
Practically every home in .the, city filed
"with the" Chamber of Commerce "and
there were numbers of people last night
without a xnuki-clud boy to take care
of.
The first train arrived at 7:30, bing
iiig Colonel Albert L. Cox, commanding
the regiment, Kegimental Headquarters,
the Supply Company and parts of Bat
teries A and C. Long before the train
.was due, fully ten thousand people had
congregated iu the streets surrounding
the union station. As the troops left
the train, they passed out of the sta

sq.ua- where they were assigned homes.
i'lio regiment left Newport News yes-to-day
at- 8 o'clock, moving over the Cv
aad U. to K.ehuiond and from Rich

Henderson, it was met by Governor T.
W. Bi kett.v xlayor James I. Johnson,
State Treasurer B. B. Lacy, Speaker of

Mr. 1. B. Collie. Major L. P. MeLcndon
and Major W. T. Joyner, the first from
a reiriment and the latter represent
ing the Chamber of Commerce, also
joined Colonel Cox at Henderson to in
form him of the pinna for receiving the
boy. The first train made a short stop
at Henderson where the Bed Cross serv

and etndy and where the greater part
of Vance county turned out en masses
to greet the boys.

Now, opposition to Mr. Wilson in
America has seized ujion precisely the

DIVERGENCE OF VIEWS
,0VER THIRTEENTH POINT
President Said To Now Share
Opinion of Lloyd George That
Danger Lurks There
raris, Saturday, March 22. (By the
Assiciuted Press.) When the council
of great powers met today it i(a in an
tmosphere of considerable apprehen
sion over Poland, which is the chief
subject of discussion. This ia not on
account of Poland itself but because of
ifferences which have arisen affecting
tho fundamental question of nationality
to which Presiacn- Wilson Fins given his
stru i gapprovai una also his thirteenth
point" which called for an independ
ent Polish state with uccess to the sea.
This lost clause has introduced an is
sue on which there is a wide diver-
genre of views. A committee under the
bairmanship of Jules Camhon with
8ir William Tyrrell us the British mem
ber and Dr. Robert ' II. Ird as the
American, has reported the plan giving
Poland this access to hn sea by means
of a corridor sixty miles wide run
ning across East Prussia. But the cf
feet of this concession is to place about
,500,000 Germans within tho new Po
land and to detach tho easternmost
part of Prussia "rom Germany.
Might Precipitate Another War.
Premier Lloyd George lias taken the
view that this denationalisation of a
large body of Germain would cause
such discontent ns would bo likely to
bring on another wnr and it is under
stood that President Wilson also is not
entirely satisfied with the proposal. .14.
cambon s committee therefore bas been
asked to revise the plan and this ro-
vtiion is now under discussion.) The com
mittee nevertheless, is said to adhere to
its original plan for a wide corridor.
