HR1T1SH AND AMERICAN
VIEWPOINTS IN ACCORD.
Paris, Jan. 2. -The view is now
held in American official quarters
that the attitude of British leaders
shows such fo-ordinuuon with the
American view-point as will facilitate
a mutual agreement before the peace
congress. After the close the recent
cenferences und the public demons
trations attending President Wilson's
visit to London one of the foremost
British statesmen suinmud up the
situation by saying:
"I would not think of having the
peace congress close until it had es
tablished a league of nations as out
lined by President Wilson, as the Brit
ish nation has clearly shown that it
expects that to be done."
British Foreign Secretary Balfour,
after his conference here, has pro
ceeded to Cannes, where he wii re
main until the middle of next week.
He and Premier Lloyd George will be
in Paris on President Wilson's return
from Italy.
It is then that the real work of
ths interallied conference will begin.
This wil not be by any formal meet
iiig around the table at the outset, as
comparatively few delegates will be
in Paris at that time. But the informal
conferences will be progressively im
portant, from then on, as tha informal
conferences will merge into formal
interallied conference, and that will
gradually merge into the peace con
gress, without any exact delimition
of date.
It is understood a rpecial commit
tee will be designated to formulate a

No Question Reached by the War
Department on the Question of
Universal Military Service.
FAVORS A HOME
ARMY OF 500,000 MEN
Wants Congress to Give Views on
Disposition of Camp Sites, But
He Favors Their Purchase.
Washington, Jan. .'!. No decision
has been reached by the war depart
ment on the question of universal mil
itary service. Secretary Raker told
the House military e,.niniit!ee today
and he indicated that no definite
project for a permanent military es
tablishment would be presented
to
congress until alter the peace
con-
ference had concluded its work.
When asked whether it would be
necessary to keep a large force in
Furope at least two years Secretary
Be.ker said:
"We hope that is not true; we arc
not -.dunning for it."
He .Mi:d 700.000 men had been dis
charged from the army since the arm
istice was signed and that another
million men would be discharged
within the nest five weeks.
Mr. Maker gave notice that bill au
thorizing a regular army of oOO.OOO
men to be raised bv voluntary enlist
ment shortly would be submitted to
congress, together with estimates for
appropriation. This army he said
would be in the nature of a temporary
military establishment, and described
it as a "Stop Gap Army," which would
play ever the period until peace is
re-established.
The secretary's statement wa i made
during a conference he sought with
the committee in order to lay before
it the question of the disposition to be
made of the artillery training camps
at Favttteville, N. C Columbus, Ga.,
and West Point, Ky. He said it was
r.e;'es;ary that a decision be reached
as to whether these sites are to be
nur.hased for permanent camps and
he was unwilling to proceed without
the advice of congress.
Regarding the keeping of the 16
national army cantonments and some
of tr.e national guard camp sites Sec
retary Raker said it way, his personal
judgment that the cantonment sites
all be purchased and be held for di
visional training centers for what
ever army the nation may decide to
maintain.
SEC. RAKER CONSIDERING
PI RCHASE OF CAMP SITES.
Washington, Jan 2. Secretary
Baker r.aid today he fntended to 3eek
the views rf congress on the question
of purchasing the land on which army
cantonments are located. He said the
war department thought some of
these camps sho'dd be made perman
ent and that it would cost about f 12,
000,000 to acqui-e the sites already
approved for this pumose. This mat
ter will be brought up by the secretary
when he appears tomorrow before the
house military oomir.itee.
Secretary Baker would not disclos"
when training camp sites had I wen
recommended by the general staff for
permanent retention. He said sperifi
c.lly. however, that the disposition or
flying fields was not now invi!v 1
The secretary indicated that this
program h".d no r'dr.tion to n...m
mondatiens that may bo made at some
future t'me with respect to the per
manent military policy. Sim e there
is to be j- military establishment ir
any case, he said, the acquisition of
several cantonments wmi'.l be of
benefit, to the service. He addd
that they could be used for summer
mobilization ov for divisional or even
larger maneuvers.
Within the next few davs Mr. Rak-
r said, the army war college will
complete
the
army reorganization j
mi' upon
which it has been working
and he will then seek hearings liefore
the military commitees to take up the
proposals.

THE COST OF lU'ILDING
WARSHIPS HAS GOXK I I'
Admiral Taylor Tells House Commit
tee Increase Is Almost .( Per cent.
Cost of Some Vessels.
Washington, Jan. 'I. "War con !i
t ions have brought about an er.jrmous
increase in the cost ef building '.war
ships, Read Admiral Taylor, chief of
the bureau of constructions and re
pain, told the hous." naval committee
today in discussing the lP:iO naval ap
propriation bill. He estimated that
the hulls and machinery of the 10 bat
tleships and six battle ciuisers au
thor ixed in Itlli would ro t nearly
SlgO 000,000 more than estimated-an
increase of almost "0 per cent.
Admiral Taylor said he did n.it
tfiink it was likely that the end of
hostilities would result in any spec!
reduction in cost;-.
"The battleship Mississippi (a new
ship delivered lat year) was built on
contract for $7.15.",0i)0," the admiral
said, "but the company which built it
lost a large sum of money and when
bids on the little ships California and
Tennessee were asked for no contra
tor submitted a bid under the esti
mated cost of $7,800,000. The govern
ment then decided to build them in its
own navy yards and the cost w'll
amount, t'u probably $1 l.'JoO.OOO each,
an increase of 4.'i per cent over the
tii.isted cost.
"The same increase will apply prob
ably to capital shins authorized in the
It'lii three-year jirogram. For the 10
battl.'ships and six battle cruisers
provided for in this program, 1 im
agine the increase will amount to
nearly -l.")0,000,0()(). T'-:Ls applies t
the hulls and machinery alone. I
would not venture to sav how much
the increase will he for the armor and
armament, but I will make iaquiri.'a
and let ihe committee know."
Admiral Taylor aiil the cost of con
stiucting merchant ships has increas
ed fro' a $7f to $200 a ton while the
cost cf battleships has increased less
than 50 per cent.
"The original estimates for the bat
tleship" Colo-ado, Maryland. Wa.h

' -s than ?! '-,000,000.
"If there has been an increase of

will the increase be in the three-year
program just recjinraended by Secze-,

Rutler. of Peensylvania. " The cost i.
estimated at .lo'(U)l)a,OOtt hut the esti
mates for the individual shins are not
muc hlarger than for those made m
the 10 hi program."
Admiral Taylor replied that there
may be large rcducations in the cost
on const ruction before the program h
started. The 1010 pr.iuram will not
be completed until l'.rj:!. he said, and
