Publicity Urged
ByNOrthclife
fRv Associated Press.l !

Paris, Dec. 21.--Lord Northcliffe,
chairman OF the London headquar-
ters OF the British mission to the
United States, who is visiting Paris,
today gave to the Associated Press
the following statement regarding
his ideas as to the need of open
diplomacy in conducting the peace
negotiations so that the people may
know what is going on.
Nothing can be worse for the
prospects of the coming conference
than an atmosphere OF secrecy and
half truths. Yet UP to the present
there has been no official statement
that the momentous meetings about
to take place will be held in accord
ance with President Wilson's ex-
pressed views on the question of
open dilomacy.
/. "The days of secret conclaves are
dead and gone. Clandestine assem-
hlies are the harbingers OF intrigue,
suspicion and possible deception. 1t
would be intolerable that the fate of
whole nations great and small
should be decided in secret. Shall
the destinies OF millions Of people in
all quarters OF the globe be left to
the tender mercies of a comparative
handful OF delegates, against whose
enactments there is no public APP
peal? Such would be moclsery of that
principle OF self determination of
free nations which has been fought
for and won in this war.
THE British press and people may
be relied upon to support fully the
Presidents enlightened expression of
opinion as to the need of publicity
at the momentous meetings expected
to begin in Paris on the sixth of
January. Surely the world has suf-
fered enough from secret diplomacy
to realize that medievalism of that
kind is totally incompatible with the
conception of a league OF free ma
tions. A great part OF the Presidents
popularity is due to the knowledge
that he is the father of open diplo-
macy, which 1t was understood would
be the course adopted at the forth
coming sessions"

sister tells some of the things that
happened during eight months at the
front, and how strange it seemed to
see cars with headlights blazing and

boys to enlist and is member of the
51st artillery G. A. G.
In each Of the letters he refers to
John Christensen OF Oakport town
chip, who was his "pal" from the
time they enlisted until they were
separated in France.
In the first letter, written on the
evening Of Nov. ii, Private Meland
tells OF receiving letter from his
pal, John, who he had not seen for
nearly half a year, among seven re-
ceived in two days. He then tells Of
the big event Nov. IL.

some one found it. When the bell
began to ring there was more artil-
lery firing than had heard since we
took the st. Mihiel salient.

mel coming over but couldn't hear the
shells sing for there were too many
explosives. Then they ceased firing
and all was still for a time, except the
old church bell, until we took our

''It seems strange to go out in the
morning ana not see the flash of O.

them. No need to be afraid OF let
ting lights shine from the windows or
doors. / saw a car tonight with head
lights blazing for the first time in
eight months while have been at the
front.
"As there is no one around here but
American soldiers I don't know how
the civilians took the great news. We
will be issued passes freely from now
on, and they will be welcome, be-
lieve me. / will probably be able to
buy q few things to send you and the

Auto Tags Bring
AHaIfMiIIiOn

Bismarck, N. d., Dec. 21.-Nearly
half million dollars worth of busi-
ness was done this year by the motor
vehicle registration department. An
unusually thorough examination re-
suited in q. complete approval of the
manner in which the business has
been conducted and the accuracy
with which the manifold records
have been kept.
During the year the department is
sued IL. 600 licenses to owners of au-
tomobiles. The total receipts for the
year were $472, 1927, divided as fol-
lows: Automobile licenses, $452,
5S1.6 81; motorcycle licenses, $4,956.10;
automobile dealers licenses, $12,705;
duplicate automobile tags, $934.50;
replace those lost or stolen, $421;
motorcycle dealers licenses, $45.
The cost of operating the depart
ment, including the purchase of tags
at war prices, all other supplies and
clerk hire was less than IL per cent
of the amount received. The SS per
cent remaining will be apportioned
between the state highway depart
ment and the counties from which
the business originated, at a ratio
of two thirds and one third, re-
spectiyely, all to be expended IN
building roads.
Nineteen nineteen registrations are
not being encouraged at this season.
Several sections of the present motor
vehicle act have been held uncon-
stitutionaI by the supreme court.
There is also much complaint against
