New York-Colonel z. M. House,
who sailed for Europe December 70
on confidential mission for President
Wilson, arrived here Sunday on the
steamship Rotterdam from Falmouth.
Colonel House declined to comment
on his mission or what he had seen or
done while abroad, reiterating the
statement he had made prior TO leav-
ing here in December, that his mis-
sion was to convey to some OF the
American ambassadors information
having to do with international ques-
tions that could not be supplied them
by cable or letter.
Asked If he had noticed any marked
change in the attitude of Europe to
ward the United States since his prev
ious trip, Colonel House said:
reports Of an unfavorable attitude
toward the United States by the peo-
pie Of Europe are exaggerated AZ
least, heard no criticism in any Of
the countries ! visited. / win say al
50 that we should remember that the
people Of the belligerent nations are

signature to a measure that will DO
more than he has asked toward build
ing up an adequate National defense.
Aside from its plan virtually to
double the Army and National guard.
the senate bill has four striking fea-
tures. One of these authorizes Feder-
al volunteer forces in peace times, the
object sought by Secretary Garrison
with his continental army plan An
other nobilizes all whose callings ut
them for special duty. The third
Federalixes the National guard and.
the fourth contemplates training OH

approximately 165. 900 fighting troops.
The percentage of men in each COM

"A Lot Of influence"

Sir wilfrid Laurier. the former
prime minister OF Canada. was I'm.
mensely popular With all classes OF
Canadians, and many went 80 far as
to credit him with authority Tar %

II IL related that some years ago an

from his home In the country, and got
into conversation with friend whom
he met there. In the course Of their
talk the name OF Queen Victoria was
mentioned, and the old countryman
was astounded TO hear that her ma
iesty was dead.
"Dead," he exclaimed. Then who
has taken her place."
aThe Prince Of Wales has now 20
