CHRISTIANIA, Dec. 20.-For the
first time since the Oscar II set "ail
from New York, leaders Of the Ford
peace party today began to doubt the
success Of plans for a peace congress
of neutrals.
The expedition has reached its hrst
neutral country and its reception has
lacked warmth, If 1t has not been
hostile. The unfriendly attitude Of
the Norwegian press has convinced
the peace chiefs that their plans to
bring the boys OUT Of the trenches
European neutrals.
Judge Ben B. Lindsey, OF Denver.
one Of the most prominent figures
aboard ship, today advised Ford to
abandon the peace mission alto
|gether. Lindsey is convinced that
peace efforts will be hopeless and he
begged Ford to change his plans and
turn the enterprise into one for find
ing homes for war orphans.
Ford refused to consider the sug-
gestion. He is not at all downcast by
the reception the peace argosy receiv-
ed upon its arrival here, or by the row
that broke out in mid-Atlantic. Hc
had his emissaries today trying to ar
range an audience with the king of
Norway.
Rumors of important developments
are current however. Ford's lieuten-
ants admit that the peace plans are
no better developed than when the
party left New York. The cost of the
peace expedition so far is s125.000 and
Financial Manager Pleinntiff estimates
that the final total will reach half \
million at least.
The attempt to oust several news
paper correspondents from the party
has failed. The executive committee
first considered expellfng the newspa-
permen, charging that they had sent
out wireless messages giving unfavor-
able news regarding the peace vcy-
ayers. Correspondents learned that
tho wireless dispatches they sent from
the Oscar II while crossing, were read
by Ford's lieutenants. The executive
committee finally agreed that to expel
the correspondents would end all furth-
er publicity for the peace enterprise

May Take a Hand.
CHICAGO, Dec. 20.-Belief that
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt vii! take
hand in the republican national con-
vention, gained credence in Chicago
today when admission was ma lo that
Roosevelt's friends have taken an
option on the Florentine room at the
Congress hotel for the period of the
convention.
The option expires tomorrow. Me-
dill Mccormick who conferred with
Roosevelt Saturday, is speeding to Chi
cago today to report the colonels de-
cision to his friends here.
"The reservation was tentatively
made by Harold F. Ickes. Illinois
chairman of the progressive party
the Congress management admitted
today. "Ickes declared he would tell
us today or tomorrow whether to
make the reservation permanent"
The reservation was made last
week Immediately after conference
between Geo. W. Perkins and Ickes.
Ickes at that time, declared Roose-
| welt had asserted he would not come
| to the convention. Mccormick then
| was sent to New York for a confer
ence with Roosevelt.

gress accommodates 400 persons as

tiers for offices.
