Personnel of American Del
egation Is Thought To
Be Settled
Date of Conference
Still To Be Decided
Entente Likely to Deal
With Existing Govern
ment of Germany
Tribune Wasbin0ton Ban

Tribune Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-It was in
timated to-day that President Wilson
may not sail for France as early in
December as he at first INTENDED. There
was no positive authority for the ru-
NOR, but it was taken to give credence
to reports that the Entente govern
ments and President Wilson have net
yet reached tentative conclusions, even,
upon some matters that might have
been handled by cable.
The delay Of the White House in
making public the names of the Amer
lean delegates to the peace congress is
not regarded as evidence of indccision
on the Presidents part as to whom he
will appoint. 1t is generally believed
that he already has selected the enoire
personnel of the American delegation
and that he also has approved the more
important selections of persons who
VIII accompany the delegates as expert
advisers.
May Delay Announcement
1t is thought likely that, the Presi-
dent having delayed this long, it is his
purpose not to publish the personnel
OF the American delegation until the
eve of his departure from Washington
to take boat for Europe. The United
States peace ipotentiaries, it is
thought, will accompany the President
to Paris.
The date for the convening of the
peace congress will not be decided until

p Peace Outline
Based ON IA
Wilson Points
How the Allied Diplomats
Yielded to American
Ideal of Justice

PARIS, Nov. F25 (By The Associated
Press) The United States govern
ment's diplomatic success in obtaining
from the Allied governments accept
ance of Presidents Wilson's points,
with only one reservation and addi-
ton, is becoming daily more apparent
as the prelminaries for the approach
ing peace congress are being outlined
largely on the basis of the Presidents
points
Colonel E. NJ. House, the special rep
resentative of the United States gov
ernment, when he arrived here, found
little disposition among American and
European friends to accept as total
ity the framework of peace as eX-
pressed by President Wilson. Some
European statesmen considered that
the points had worked as a good SOL
vent upon Germany, that they had
served their great purpose in their ef-
feet upon German unity, but that they
should not be observed too closely
when it came to formulating the prac-
tical details of the settlement.
View of U. S. Part
Allied statesmen have fully appreci
ated the effect of American arms in
winning the decision Nevertheless, it
was contended by some, this had been
a controversy among European nations,
and the winning group, it was suggest
ed, supposed that America having ac-
complshed her aims. would return to
her detachment and allow the coun-
tries intimately concerned to arrange
a settlement according to the Euro
pean viewpoint of the situation.
These statements made it plain that
they would receive every friendly
counsel the United States would offer,
the more so because they knew that
America wanted nothing in material
wav for herself, but was interested
only in realizing her ideals. The
losses the other belligerants have suf-
fered in comparison with those of the
United States have also been cited
as a reason for the Allies having a
predominant influence in shaping the
new order in Europe.
Gain Not Sought
The American people had never been
conscious that they were fighting for
territorial or colonial interests Of any
Allied government, excepting in SO
far as these came within the frame
work of the American governments
principles. Consequently, it was neces-
sary to bring out that these points
having been accepted by the Central
powers presented a clean issue as to
whether they were to be officially ac-
cepted by the Allied powers.
If the Allied powers could not see
their way clear to accept them, the
American government was IN the po-
sition of having conducted the war for
purposes which were not identical with
those of the Allies.
This presented rather delicate is
sue at the outset, as it was realized
that it might require the submission
of the entire subject to the American
Congress. The European ministers
felt the force Of the views presented,
and this in time brought about an en-
tire agreement upon the American
points as a basis of peace negotiations.

LIMA, Peru, Nov. est is officially

ment has cancelled all Chilean consuer
exequaturs here

MISSOURI VALLEY
 GRID TEAMS HAVE
 CANCELLED GAMES
By Associated Press.

By ASSOclateu Press.
 Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 19.-Aban- donment of all the October football
 games in the Missouri Valley Confer
 ence has been made necessary by the refusal of Col. R. l. Rees of the army general staff of the Student Training Corps to modify the rlres concerning the athletics, set forth in the circu- lar of September 26.
 In telegram to A. floss Hill, pres ident of the University of Missouri and district educational director of the s. A. T. C., Col. Rees stated that these regulations would stand in detail. No commanding officer of the S. A. T. c. will be permitted to violate the rules of the War Department which forbid out of town trips requiring absence from schools other than Saturday af- |ternoons of this month
 The teiegram to President Hill was
 in answer to the recommendations of
 the presidents, boards of central and faculty representatives of the Mis-
 souri Valley schools that the confer |ence football schedule be allowed to stand as far as possible.
 Because of the distance between the
 Missouri Valley colleges it will be impossible to play the october games and return by Saturday night in the
 moon to taps" furloughs that are per mitted this month. Therefore, only games with schools outside the con- ference and close to the conference points will be possible this month.
 The November schedule will be fol- nS o1 11 or1
 ing tc Colonel Rees' telegram Teams will be allowed to make trips of not more than As hours, or from Friday might to Sunday night Whether the November ruling will be followed so strictly as to necessitate change in the plan for the annual Kansas Mis- sourri game on Thanksgiving is a matter of conjecture, but President Hill is said to be hopeful that the War Department will permit the de- parture Cf the team on 48 hour fur tough in the middle of the week in- stead of at the end of the week. If not the game might have to be played on the Saturday before or after the Thanksgiving Thursday.
 President Hill favors a complete re- vision of the Missouri Valley sched- ule similar to that already effected in the Western Conference whereby every conference team would meet the other conference team Whether this could be crowded into November seems doubtful and there has been some talk among coaches and direct ing authorities of attempting to ex- tend the season into the next month. Much will depend on the games with schools outside the conference that
 can be cancelled or reset.
 With large percentage of the foot ball material at all the Valley schools under strict military control and dis cipline, training and practice routine as followed in other years bids fair to be materially upset. The effect of the inocculations required of s. A. T. c. men was expected. to interfere with early practice, but the portpane- ment of the schedule probably will give time for vaccinations to heal be- fore the real season opens.
