LEES APPOINTMENT
OVERTURE TO MOOSE
SAYS ALFRED BAvIS

Members of the Progressive city
administration failed to show sny en-
thusiasm today when they read Of the
action OF Governor Ralston In appoint.
ing Edwin M. Lee, Progressive state
chairman, as member OF the Indiana
Public Utilities Commission to sue
.ceed John F. Mcclure. a Republican
member, whose term expired last May.
1T Is shrewd political move on the
part of the governor" remarked Board
President Bavis. 1T Is probable the
governor anticipates this action on his
part Will bring the Progressives into
a closer relationship with the Demo
cratic party.
Forsees Political Move
1T Is understood, Of course, that the
next governor, Mr.. Goodrich. has au.
thority to call for the designations Of
all five members of the public util-
titles commission"
Other administration officers stated
that they failed to see what peculiar
qualification Mr.. Lee had for the Of
flee he has been appointed to.
1t Is no secret that In the event Mr..
Goodrich makes clean sweep OF the
present utilities commission no tears
will be shed by the city officers of
Richmond, who are far from satisfied
with the action taken by the commits
sion in most of the cases brought be-
fore the commission by the city Of
Richmond.

Entente Governments Ex-
pected to Hold Confer
ences Next Week to Deter
mine Answer to Germany.
RUSSIANS FACING
SERIOUS PROSPECTS
Military Writers Predict New
Defensive by Russo-Rou-
manians Along Line of
Buzen River.

Further developments regarding the
peace proposals of Germany and her
allies are awaiting the consultation
and decision Of the entente govern
ments as to official action to be taken
Probably nothing definite in this
connection may be expected before
next week, the probable occasion being
the appearance of David Lloyd George.
the new British premier before the
House Of Commons on Tuesday. The
premier, who has been ill, is improv-
ing in health and according to today's
indications will be able to make at
that time his postponed statement re-
garding the policies of the new govern
ment.
Consequences Are Serious.
Possible serious consequences not
only for the Roumanians but for the
Russians are implied in today's ar
nouncement from Berlin of the capture
OF the Roumanian town of Buzeu.
Military writer's have very largely
assumed 1t to be the Russo-Rouman-
ians intention to make defensive
stand along the line Of the Buzeu river
far from the southern border of Mold
avia, Roumania's northern province.
The town lies south Of the river near
the center of the line.
Berlin reports a defensive by the
French in the region of Verdun. At
tacks made in attempts to retake the
lost French positions west of the
Meuse, were repulsed, according to the
Berlin report.

SALOON ISSUES
PLACED BEFORE
MAYOR ROBBINS

Men interested in social reform
work in Richmond who are co-opera:
ing with Secretary Melpolder Of the
Social Service Bureau In his efforts to
have that section Of the third ward
north of the Pennsylvania railroad de-
clared a residential district for the
purpose OF closing the only two saloons
now operating in R:verdale have been
calling upon every member Of the
council presenting statistics showing
social conditions in Riverdale and
urging that the two saloons in that dis
trict be closed as the initial step in
the betterment Of these conditions.
Bring Pressure to Bear.
Today Secretary Melpolder and four
church workers called upon Mayor
Robbins and asked him to support
their movement. Besides Secretary
Melpolder those who called on the
mayor were Harry Scott, L. H. Bun
yam. George H. Knollenberg and
George Ballinger. The mayor was not
asked to state his position on the
question but the committee endeavored
to convince him that the best inter.
ests of the community, especially
Riverdale, would be served If the two
saloons were forced out of business.
Mr.. Bunyan stated that the commit
tee in charge of the work was greatly
pleased over the statements made to
the committee by several of the coun-
cilmen.
Mr.. Bunyan was asked when the
committee intended to formally bring
before the council its petition to have
the north half of the third ward de-
clared a residential district and he
stated that this had not yet been de-
termined.
One councilman stated today that
q member of the social service bu-
reau's committee had informed him
that four Of the twelve councilmen had
placed themselves on record as favor
ing closing the two Riyerdale saloons

Governor Capper Brings War
Problem Before Confer
ence of State Executives at
National Capitol.
DEFENDS AGAINST
MEDDLING CHARGE
World Must Find Some For
mula for Solution of Prob
lens Instead of War and
Suffering.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-America
is confronted today with the RESPONSE
bility and duty of leading the move
ment for universal peace and to in
sure that such wars as that Of the
present shall no longer disturb the
world, Governor Arthur Capper Of
Kansas today told the conference Of
governors here.
Upon the American people," said
Governor Capper. rests the RESPONSE
bility and duty of leadership in the
movement for permanent peace among
civilized nations. 1t is no quixotic en-
terprise to which we are called. We
arc not meddlers in the affairs Of
others when we say that war must
cease.
War Affects All Nations.
"The interdependence of nations,
the bonds of commerce and finance,
entirely aside from the distates Of
common humanity make It impossible
for this plague Of war to exist any
where upon the globe without serious
ly affecting both our International re-
lations and our domestic affairs. Our
protest Is not sentimental though we
thank God we are moved by human
suffering and the waste Of human life
by this destroying world sickness.
THE close OF the world war strikes
the hour for the organization among
civilized nations Of an actual fedora
tion with the purpose Of maintaining
a world peace. And America Is the
one nation which can propose such
federation and effect It's organization.
The task is hopeless without US. This
is because Of our non.participation In
the present struggle and because of
the magnitude Of the nation and its
resources.
Cites too Many Agencies
Through such agencies as the pro-
posed League of nations to enforce
peace or the worlds court league
which proposed submission Of all
justifiable questions at issue between
nations to an international tribunal
Governor Capper declare the object
might be obtained
"The United States" he said. "is the
logical nation to begin this movement
for which destiny has now prepared
mankind. Never before since the
dawn OF history has such an opportun-
ity been presented to any nation as
now comes to ours. Our task is to
keep one single issue burning into the
general human consciousness: that the
world can and must find some other
way to settle differences Of opinion
than by the slaughter OF men and the
starving women and children"

May SAVE H-3
AFTER RESCUE
OF HER CREW

EUREKA, Cal, Dec. 15.-The sub
marine H-3. in which twenty-five en-.
listed men and two officers OF the
United States navy we're imprisoned
for several hours yesterday while she
pounded. disabled, In heavy surf on
the beach near the Eureka harbor en-
trance. was still intact early today as
far as could be seen from the shore.
The sea was smoother during the
night and hope was expressed that
with the aid Of the coast guard cutter
Mccullough, which left San Francisco
last nigth and should arrive here dur
ing the day, the stranded diver would
be hauled back into deep water.
Stay on Mother Ship.
The crew of the H-3 spent the night
on the u S. steamship Cheyenne. the
mother ship of the H flotilla. In Eu-
reka Harbor, while the HI and the
H-2, which were accompanying the H-3
to San Diego from Puget Sound, con-
tinued unconveyed to San Francisco.
Werner Sweins, the plucky coast
guardsman of the Eureka life saving
station, today became the hero OF the
rescue. While the navy men were
still bottled up in the diver. a coast
guard cutter with eight men pulled
along side with a lead line for a
beeches buoy When the cutter was
dashed away by giant wave. Sweins
leaped aboard the diver and made fast
the line.
Washed overheard, he clasped a
struggling line and hauled himself to
safety, only to be forced to repeat his
hard struggle a moment later. The
coming tower hatch was opened to
him when the men inside became
aware of his presence through his lus.
ty kicks, and little later Sweins and
members of the crew were able to haul
the buoy tackle aboard.

PRESIDENT AWAITS
PREMIER'S ADDRESS
BEFORE He ACTS

! WASHINGTON Dec. 15.-President
Wilson probably will not finally deter
mine on any formal steps in connec-
ton with the peace proposals Of Ger

after David Lloyd George, the British
prime minister, has spoken in the
House Of Commons Tuesday.
After a conference with President
Wilson. Secretary Lansing said the
position of the American government
had not been determined, and that
the note from Turkey had not been
received
There we're Indications that while
the president was still waiting for an

step, he had made up his mind SUM-
ciertly on his general policy to dis
cuss it with the cabinet.

MINIMUM WAGE
RECEIVES K. 0.
OF COMMITTEE

At joint meeting members of the
ordinance committee Of council and
members Of the board of public works.
last night, 1t was shown that if min.
imum wage Of $3.50 per day for all
laborers employed by the city were
to be provided It would mean an In
crease Of $9,420 a year In municipal
expenditures, an expense which could
not be provided for inasmuch as It
was not anticipated when the. 1917
budget was framed.
The ordinance committee finally de-
cided to report to council next Mon.
day night as being opposed to $3.50
minimum wage. The report will con.
tain the following recommendation:
THAT the matter Of increased pay
be left to the discretion Of George ].
Knollenberg, street commissioner,
Charles Ford, superintendent Of parks,
and officers Of the health department
with the recommendation that where
such increases are reasonably justified
they be made.
Would Keep Old Employees.
This recommendation is made to
obviate the necessity of removing any
OF the employees, who have rendered
the city faithful service and who would
not be able to secure employment
elsewhere"
There are some men working for
the street department who have been
in the employ Of the city for thirty
years. The city Is anxious to care for
these faithful employees but it could
not do SO II it were necessary to pay
every laborer not less than $3.50 q
day. The city, with such a scale,
would have to secure $3.50 a day
workmen." Board President Bavis said
today. 1--WE believe 1t is best to leave
the wage question to department
heads. They will pay their men what
they are worth"
Recently the board authorized the
street commissioner to pay laborers
during the winter season 20 cents an
hour, with a working day of nine
hours and ten hours pay. So pleased
were the men affected by this order
that today the board received two
boxes of cigars from the men.
