PEACE PRINCIPLES
WILSON LAYS DOWN

These are the principles which
= President Wilson lays down as the
guideposts marking the return to
peace:
"No people must be forced un-
der sovereignty under which it
does not wish to live.
"No territory must change
hands except for the purpose of
securing for those who inhabit it
a fair chance of life and liberty.
= "No indemnities must be insisted
on except those that constitute
payment for manifest wrongs
done.
"No readjustments of power
must be made except such as will
tend to secure the future peace of
the world and the future welfare
and happiness of it's peoples.
"And then the free peoples of
the world must draw together in
some common covenant, some
genuine and practical cooperation
that will combine in effect their
force to secure peace and justice
in the dealings of nations with
one another.
= 1.-THE brotherhood of mankind
must no longer be fair but empty
phrase. 1t must have structure
: of force and reality. The nations
must realize their common life
. and effect a workable partnership
to secure that life against the az
= qressions of autocratic and self
pleasing power"

DANIELS FEARS FOE GETS
SECRETS VITAL TO FLEET
Naval Secretary Forbids Officers,
Crews or Department Employees
From Discussing Activities.

Washington, June 1.-THE navy
department has reason to believe that
information of a character most valu-
able to the enemy, and which might
prove disastrous to the navy, has in
some way reached the enemy" Secre-
tary of the Navy Josephus Daniels
has announced.
This disclosure preceded the estab-
lishment of stringent regulations to
prevent persons in the navy from dis
GUESSING naval and military matters
even with members of their own i'm
mediate families.
I'm view of the strenuous efforts
that have been made to prevent the
dissemination Of such information the
department believes that in practically
every instance this has resulted from
certain information being given in
confidence to or spoken in the pres
ence of close relative or friend who,
failing to appreciate the gravity of
the offense, inadvertently transmit
ted it into the hands of those who
most desired to obtain it.
'The situation at this time is entire
ly too grave to permit of a continu-
ance of present practice in this re-
gard
Officers, enlisted personnel and civ
ilian employees are therefore directed
not to discuss any question relating
to the disposition, movements or pro-
posed movements of naval or military
forces (including personneD at any
time, except officially, either among
themselves or with any person outside
the naval service. 1t should be clear
ly understood that families and rela-
tives are to be considered as outside
the naval service
"All persons who attempt to obtain
prohibited information from persons
in the naval service should be regard
ed with suspicion and reported with
out delay to the proper authorities.
Daniels insisted that new regula-
tons are not in any way aimed at
American newspapers, though the or
der had the effect of at least partially
closing usual legitimate news sources.
American Munitions Reach Gibraltar.
Washington, June II. The former
German steamship Clara Menning, has
arrived in Gibraltar, en- route to an
Italian port with cargo Of munitions
and general supplies. The Menning
was taken over by the American gov
eminent when war was declared on
Germany.
