GERMAN PEOPLE NO
LONGER ENTHUSIASTIC

Geneva, June 18.-The enthusiasm
created by the first German often
sive has passed and a feeling of
profound detection reigns among the
German people, according to an in
teryiew with a neutral diplomat who
had just arrived in Geneva from Ber-
lin, in La Suisse.
The people at home expected a
quick victory from the early reports
in official bulletins and, above all,
a quick peace. The principal ques-
ton asked in Berlin last week was:
Have we entered Paris?"
The economic situation in the in
terror of Germany, the diplomat de-
clared, is becoming more and more
serious.
Germans, both military and civilian
now realize and admit that the con-
slant arrivals of fresh American
troops will turn the tide of the war.
The diplomat concluded his inter
view with a statement that during q
recent secret sitting of the Reich
stag the question of autonomy for
Alsace-Lorraine was discussed offic-
ialIy for the first time since the be-
ginning of the war.

membership also has been suggested
but none of the committees recon-
mended such change.
The change providing single term
OF four years for state offices has
been much agitated in recent years
in Arkansas. and other states The
creation OF the office OF lieutenant
governor would cause q change. IN
both the executive and legislative
branches of the state government
The lieutenant governor would pre-
side over the sessions of the senate
and he would serve as governor In
the absence OF the governor
The proposed changes in the ju-
dicial system are intended to ex-
pedite the work of the supreme court
II 10 believed that with the court sit
ting in two divisions twice the vol,
ume of business could be handled.
The creation. of public service
corporation commission has also been
much agitated. This commission
would handle all matters relating to
public utilities. Under the provisions
of the proposed constitution the tax
commission and the railroad commits
sion wonld be abolished and matters
now handled by these commissions
would be added to the duties OF the
new commission. There would be
three members of the commission.
The proposed constitution as draft
ed is the work of the numerous com
mittees as appointed by President
Mehaffy during the brief session. OF
the convention in April. Recommen-
dations were submitted to him by
these committees and he then turned
them over to the codification commit
tee. which compiled them and turned
them over to the committee on print
ing. which has had copies printed for
the use of the members of the con-
vention-

II was said yesterday that the
members of the convention are prac-
tically unanimous in support Of all
the provisions Of the proposed con-
stftution except the. last one men,
tioned-that requiring legal expert
ence for 8 county Judge That di-
vision OF opinion exists on this sec
ton Is evidenced by the submiftal of
two proposals by different commit
tees. The committee on judiciary
recommends the four. years practice

present system. which does not make

aOn all other matters there is a

Judge Mehaffy. Delegates who rep

orally agreed on the provisions OF
the new constitution"
The convention win reconvene at
2 d. m. July 1. In the hall OF the
house of representatives at the state
capitol. Mr.. Mehaffy said yesterday
that he believes the session viii not
more than thirty days. The
committees have done their work so
well and there seems to be so slight
differences between the. delegates
that it is blieved that only a few
changes win be made in the present
draft
Change in the manner of handling
probate court business has been dis
cpssed by members of the convention
