Washington, Dec. 3.-In an address
to Congress in joint session Monday,
President Wilson formally announced
bis intention to go to Paris for the
peace conference. saying the allied
governments have accepted principles
enunciated by him for peace and 1t is
bis paramount duty to be present.
The President said he will be in
hat Congress will know all that he
does on the other side.
Referring to his announcement that
the French and British governments
had removed all cable restrictions up
On the transmission of news of the
conference to America, the President
said he had taken over the American
cable systems on expert advice to
make a unified system available.
He expressed the hope that he would
have the cooperation of the public
and of Congress. saying that through
the cables and wireless, constant coun-
sci and advice would be possible.
Much Of the address was devoted to
the railroad problem, for which the
President said he now had no solution
to offer. He recommended careful
study by Congress-. saying 1t would be
a disservice to the country and to the
railroads to permit a return to old con-
ditions under private management
without notifications.
The President declared he stood
ready to release the railroads from
government control whenever a salts
factory plan of readjustment could be
worked out.
Declaring he HAD no private
thought or purpose" in going to
France, but hat he regarded it as his
highest duty, the President added:
at is now my duty to play my full
part in making good what they
(America's soldiers) offered their
life's blood to obtain"
President Wilson's readjustment pro
gram, as outlined, provides:
Passage of woman suffrage.
Use of existing government agencies
to effect reconstruction.

This question of reparation brings
up the matter of q commercial boycott.
Many authorities assert that the only
way Germany can pay will be by OBJ
tanning raw materials from the coun-
tries h has been fighting and selling
her products in their markets. Very
likely the peace conference will declare
against the boycott idea, but it will
not be so easy to persuade the peoples
of the allied nations to buy German
made goods. Most of them would pre-
fer to see Germany reduced to the po-
sition she has earned for herself, to
have such money as can be taken from
her, and to let the rest of the financial
reparatjon go by the board. Austria,
too, is making the loud wall for raw
materials and markets. DR.. Franz

conference the so-called Austrian re-

of the bolsheviki-are vigorously
fighting to get the upper hand.~ They

is. In a state of great disorder. 1t is
reported that Liebknecht has $4,000
men well armed and is planning q ter
rorist revolution. He reviles Ebert for
asking food from America, for, since
this is conditioned on the maintenance
of order, it is yielding to a capitalist

knecht's organ, the Red Flag. demands
the dismissal Of officers and the
choosing by soldiers of their leaders ;
the immediate arming of the revolu-

CURRENT COMMENT.

OPPONENTS of the Non-Partisan
League who are endeavoring to
kill OF, or at least hinder, that organ
ization by refusing to allow its lead
ers to speak in certain communities
are pursuing course that is having
nm opposite effect Those Boise peo-
pie who attempted TO do that last FRI
day certainly "pulled boner." Its
effect has been to strengthen. rather
than to hinder the League The
common plug citizen believes in fair
play and is quick TO resent any at
tempt at injustice, and the Leagues
cause has been greatly strengthened
by the fool proceedings in Boise. We
are told, however. that the people of
Boise, with mighty few exceptions and
irrespective of political division,
strongly disapprove the efforts of GER
tain individuals to prevent A. C.
Townley from speaking. The attempt
was naturally abortive because there
was no organized movement behind it.
The Ada County Defense League,
composed of around 800 men of all
shades of political belief and repre-
senting every element of life in Boise,
declined to participate to bar Town
Jey. Around hundred members met
and adopted a protesting resolution
stating that Townley should not be al !
a,wed to speak. leaving it up to the
authorities. A few hot heads, how
ever, decided to act on their own re-
sponsibiity. What followed was not
creditable to those who participated
in the rumpus, and gave Boise a black
eye
