Paris, December 2o.--(By the Associated Press )-Lord Northcliffe chairman of the London headquarters of the British mission to the United States. who is visiting Paris, today gave to the Asso- ciated Press the following statement re- garding his ideas as to the need of open diplomacy in conducting the peace nego- tiations, so that the people may know what Is going on
 Nothing can be worse for the pros poets of the coming conference" said Lord Northcliffe, than an atmosphere of secrecy and half truths. Yet up to the present there has been no official state ment that the momentous meetings about to take place will be held in accordance with President Wilson's expressed views on the question of open diplomacy
 "'The days of secret conclaves are dead and gone. Clandestine assemblies are the harbingers of intrigue, suspicion and pos sible deposition It would be intolerable that the fate of whole nations-great and small-should be decided in secret. Shall the destnies of millions of peoples in all quarters of the globe be left to the tender mercies of comparative handful of delegates, against whose enactments there is no public appeal Such would be mockery of that principle of self-determination of free nations hich has been fought for and won in this war

cone thing that has been said about
me" said Private Peat in a recent inter-
view seems to surprise people. 1T is
that l have been two years in hell and
am back with a smile Everybody says
How can he come smiling out of hell
why, I'm not the only fellow that has
done it. Til e are hundreds of thou
sands of US who are smiling today And
we are smiling not because we have got
out Of hell, but because we have been
there. 1t is the fellow that doesn't go
that won't be smiling much.
If YOU had taken the biggest oppor-
tunty ever offered to a man, wouldn't
YOU smile? If you had gone down into
hell for the sake of people who are there
already. wouldn't YOU come back with a
smile? If you had learned more in the
past two years about life and all that
makes it worth living than you had found
out in the previous %, wouldn't you be
glad?
And suppose I hadn't come back at all?
know I'd be smiling now-and I
wouldn't be dong 1t in hell. either.
That's what you folks don't realize. Won
who are here at home. You don't know
how things get clear and plain to us in
the trenches. Talk about finding your
self We find more than ourselves. We
find God
You wouldn't think so If you heard US
talking The language of the trenches
often isn't fit to print. Men who never
swore in their lives will curse the Huns
til the air Is blue.
We don't all pray. but every mothers
sol of us is honestly at peace with God.
We're often afraid-physically afraid of
getting wounded or killed. But afraid to
die? Not one bit!
Its hard to explain it to those who
haven't been there, but every fighting
man will understand. God understands.
That's all that is necessary. AS your
American slang puts it, We should
worry. ADV.
