CITIES WILL BE ASKED
 TO WITHHOLD IMPROVEMENTS
Not Only Bonds, Stocks and Other Securities of Big Corporations Would Be Affected, But Building Operations on Big Scale Would Be Curtailed.

Washington, Jan. 11--Regulation of the issue of all private securities soon will be proposed by the government.
 Legislation now is being drafted by administration officials in conference with members in congress asking the treasury to license each individual security issue and to refuse approval 10 enterprises regarded as not es- sential Co the conduct of the war. Ex- ercise of this function would be as- signed So federal reserve board or agency created by it which also would pass on the priority of capital needs.
 As collateral plan, formation of a government corporation to absorb any of the approved stock or bond is- sues has been agreed upon tenta- lively.
 A preliminary step now being con- siderd at the white house is issu- ance of proclamation calling on gov ernors and legislatures of. all states and county, city or other local offi- cials 10 cease making expenditures for public improvements not abso- lutely necessary and to refuse build- ing or other permits as far as pos- stble to private construction not con- tributing directly to the prosecution of the war.
 Secretary McAdoo discussed the whole question today with treasury advisers and some definite action is expected within week.
 The result of the governments un- dertaking would be far reaching Not only bonds, stocks and other securi- ties of big corporations would be af- fected, but building operations on a great scale probably would feel the effect of the tightening of capital. The government would have a tiNlt grip on the security market with power to indicate into which business ventures capital should be placed and

New York, Jan. 1l-With fighting still at a low ebb on all of the bat tic fronts, the chief political issue the negotiations between the central powers and Russia remains the ab- sorbing point in interest in the world war. Chaotic indeed is the situation surrounding these negotiations, due to the fact that nothing but cOntradic- tory reports of the proceedings have come through for publication That peace again has been discussed at Brest- -Litoysk seems apparent con troyerting the previous reports that the conferences would not be contin- ued by the Bolshevild unless they were transferred to Stockholm.
 The latest adyices are to the eff feet that the delegates of the cen tral powers now have declared with drawn, so far as Russias allies are concerned, their peace proposals of December % of mo forcible annexa- tions or indemnities." which were conditional on Great Britain. France, the United States and other enemy powers participating in the peace pour parleys. The refusal of these powers to be drawn into the Teu- tonic net of discussion is given as the reason for the Austro- German dele gates recanting.
 But Count Czernin, the Austro- linn ru ri ia n far-afvr, tY,fa t,l BolsheviH delegates that the door has not been closed to the Russians and that the situation now had resolved itself into d question of separate peace between Russia and the central powers. The seeming ultimatum of the representatives of the enemy pow CTS was taken under advisement and the conference was adjourned.
 Nikolai Lenine, the Bolshevih pre- mier, apparently is maintaining his previous attitude of unwillingness to concede any points to the enemy and has resserted that unless the central powersa ccept the Bolsheyid pro- posals, the Bolsheviki will declare war on them. He also has declared himself in favor of stopping demob- ilization and preparing for war.
 The Ukranian republic, through It's delegate ot the conference is de- clared to have announced an inde- pendent attitude in the st-Litoysk negotiations. Following the declara- ton of the independence of Ukraine comes the announcement that a re- public has been formed in the terri tory of the Don Cossacks in south east Russia with General Kaledines, leader of the Cossacks, as president.
 On the fighting front there is lit- tie activity except by the artilleries
 Several trench raiding operations have been carried out on the western front by the French in the Argonne forest and the Vosges mountains sec- tors in which German prisoners were taken.
 Notwithstanding the deep snow on the northern Italian front the Italian guns have been active near Cavazuc- churina, in the hill region, demolish- ing Austro-German trenches and forcing the enemy to eyacuate them.
 The Italian machine guns worked havoc among the enemy as they en- deaYored to retire.

 Kearney Warnell, clerk, was wounded, but probably will recover Military authorities are reticent re- garding the robbery. It was led" eu however that the robbery was dis covered when persons passing the bank heard groans
 , ft k believed at least two men took 1 part in the robbery, as two hand axes used in the killing were found inside the bank. The robbers gained entrance to .he vault and removed a considerable quantity of cash and some liberty bonds. The amoum obtained was not given out.
 The discovery. it was said did not become known until after nine o'clock The military police were immediate ly put on the case. Telegrams were sent 10 the police in several towns enlisting their aid in capturing the fugitives
 1t was stated here by army off cers that they were convinced the man who apparently led in the rob- bery was not sn officer in the army, although he was dressed in the uni form of captain. Warnel stated that the crime was committed by man who was wearing a captain's unifom, but he was unable to give any detailed description of the man. It is believed the uniform worn by the murderer is staied with blood
 How the robbers entered the bank, successfully attacked five men with axes, robbed the vault and made their escape is a mystery. The robbery occurred after the bank had closed and on one except an "fficer loald have gained admission unless he was known to the clerks. It is believed this was the reason the robber Sc cured a captains uniform.

threatened every instant with dang

alertness and good judgment in hand

 Conspiracy.

Little Rock, April 24.-Three we'll known Little Rock young men, M. s. McCord, Jack Ashton and Attorney J. B. Gulley, were arrested today on charges of violating the selective draft law.
 McCord is charged with having at tempted to evade the law on two counts and Ashton and Gulley were alleged to have conspired to aid him: The two latter men also are charged with having accepted money for their "services.
 According to the indictments which were returned by the federal grand jury Tuesday, McCord on the first count, stated in his questionairre that his father, William McCord, was de- pendent on him for support. It IS charged that the parent is not a de- pendent. On the second count McCord is charged with having conspired with Ashton and Gulley to have framed an adequate plea for exemption. Ash ton, who on December 20, 1917, was justice of the neace and therefore exempt from military service; IS sad to have agreed to resign and recom- mend McCord for the office.
