GARDNER PROPOSAL
WILL Be KILLED
Strength Of Administration TO
Be Exerted Against Il.

Washington, Dec. 5.-President Will
son had two important conferences,
at which the administrators plans
for dealing WITH the Gardner resolu-
ticn to investigate the war prepared
ness OF the United States were dis
cussed. He saw Representative Shir-
ley, the chairman of the Notifications
subcommittee of the house committee
on appropriations. and Chairman Fita-
gerald OF the committee on apprOpri-
ations.
1t Is certain, as result of these
conferences. that the strength OF the
administration In the house will be
exerted to kill the Gardner measure
at the outset, This Is the first author
itative disclosure Of the presidents
intentions, inasmuch as he has stead
lily refused to express nimself In ad-
vance of the conference to which he
has invited Representative Gardner
for next Monday.
1t Is possible, however, that the
president. in recognition OF the inter-
est which Gardner has succeeded In
arousing throughout the country on
the subject of the country's defense
strength. will approve proposal for
something more Of an inquiry into the
condition of the army and navy than
would be made in the routine commit
tee hearings.
Both Shirley and Fitzgerald are pre-.
r;, h., ~~SA Ahr

advanced in answer to Mr.. Gardner's
charges.

that he mad found the cause of the
outbreak of gunmen outrages lately.
1t is all due to the war In Europe. he
said. "Most of the gunmen have grao-
uated into that trade from pickpock-
ets," he said. "Times are SO bad tnat
they have been put out Of business as
pickpockets. People carry very little
change and practically no bills in
their pockets any more, so the pick
pockets can't make a living. get my
information from pickpocksts with

turned TO London after "A weeks trii
OF inspection In Belgium. Mr.. Hoovei
reported that the distribution of food

stated that the condition of famine

pated by British Military Experts.
Battle In Western Zone Reported to
Be at a StandstII--AustraIian and
New Zealand Troops Arrive.
London, Dec. 5.-According to un-
ofiicial dispatches from the Russian
capital, the battle Of Lodz has ended
IN success for the Russians, but this
statement is opposed to that Of the
Berlin official report, which says the
German offensive in Poland is taking
Its normal course.
The fact is that the fighting in this
region has developed into such jum-
ole that 1t is almost impossible to fol-
low It. The most important factor,
from the allies point of view, is that
the German advance on Warsaw
seemingly has not succeeded in its
object, nor has II had the effect of d.
verting the Russians from their for
ward movement through the Carpa.

gary or against the fortress of Cra-
COW, around which they are drawing
q closer ring of men and artillery.
Taking into consideration the case
OF Przemysl which has held out SO
long against the Russian attacks, mil
itary men do not look for the early
fall Of Cracow and are rather inclined
70 believe that the armies Of Emperor
Nicholas will endeavor to keep the
large Austrian forces inside the for.
tIess and enter Silesia from the south
east.
Much depends however. on the bat
tie which is being fought with such
Intensity farther north between the
rivers Vistula and Wcrthe, and In
which all agree the losses on both
sides have been very heavy.
the battle in the west appears to
be at standstill. The allies and the
Germans have attempted to take the
offensive at different points along the
front, but as neither claims to havs
made any advance and as both official
reports mention repulses Of the en-.
emy, 1t is evident that the attacks
which have been made have not met
with much success.
The arrival of Australian and New
Zealand contingents In Egypt on forty
transports is quoted as another tri-
umpa for the British navy. The Ger
