BLISS DELEGATED
STANDING AGENT
AT WAR COUNCIL
American Chief of Staff Arrives in
Paris to Take Station on
Supreme Council.
UP TO MINUTE
United States Informed Fully in
All Particulars as to the
War
UP TO MINUTE INFORMATION

Washington, Jan. 2l.-General Tas
ker H. Bliss, chief of staff, who ar
rived in Paris Thursday will represent
the United States army on the su
pre- war council. Secretary E'aker in sc
announcing Thursday disclosed thai
the general is accompanied by high
officers of every branch of the ser
vice to advise him about any ques
tions that may arise.
General Bliss attended the first
meeting of the council and decision
to send him back to Europe as a per
manent representative in that body
was made because it was recognized
that General Pershing's duties in or
ganizing and commanding the ever in
creasing American eXpeditionary
forces were too great to permit him
to undertake the presentation on Am
erican views on military operations
and to sit with the council in framing
plans of strategy that cover all fronts
and all armies.
Bliss in Paris
No word of the departure of Cen
eral Bliss had been published until
the news of his safe arrival came to-
day.
From General Bliss the war council
will obtain an up-to-the-minute report
on what the United States will be
able to contribute to the operations
on the western front this spring and
summer. His report in this regard has
been forecast to- some extent by
President Wilson's statement to con-
gressiOnal visitors that there would
be in Europe in June twice the num-
Der of American troops which it had
been originally planned to send by
that time.
General Bliss also can inform his
conferees exactly the situation in
which the United States finds itself
now as to delivery of supplies OF all
sorts to the allies and this informa-
ton probably will have great weight
in the shaping of war plans.
Vigorous Offensive
While Secretary Bakers statement
merely said that General Bliss had ar
rived in France to represent the army
on the council, there have been init
nations that renewed recommends
lions for vigorous offensive operations
on the widest possible scale were in
cluded in the instructions the general
received before sailing.
Probably the primary consideration
before the council when it recOnven-
es will be the widely advertised pro-
posed German offensive on the west
ern front.
A mass OF information has reached
the allied powers from many quar-.
tiers indicating an impending drive
AGAINST the British or French lines
or both, which will be carefully re
viewed. Ways and means to meet
such a concentration of German and
Austrian forces IS is indicated un'
doubtedly have been considered.

Gilbert and four other workers

C0NTRABAND IN
BOOZE DEMANDS
UNITED EFFORTS
Governors Appealed to by United
States Revenue Commissioner
Roper
MOONsH1NE TRAFFIC GAINS
Federal Official Asks That State
Agents Cooperate With the
Government Men.

Washington, Jan. 25.-An appeal to
governors and members of congress
to support a nation wide campaign
against illicit liquor distillers was pre-.
pared Thursday by Internal Revenue
Commissioner Roper, whose reports
show %"moonshine' traffic increasing
rapidly. The campaign will be di-
rected against southern dry states,
where the location of most Of the mil.
itary camps has added a special ca
son for the cleanup movement.
Commissioner Roper will ask gov.
n to furnish state agents to CO.
operate with government inspectors
in putting illegal stills out Of bust
ness. The appeal probably will be
issued in a few days.
In line with the movement to i'm
prove liquor and vice conditions about
military camps, new restricted zone
regulations have been prepared by the
war department and the department
Of Justice, and will be announced
soon. They have been drawn in an
effort to make it o. difficult for
persons who buy liquor and give it
% soldiers to escape penalties OF tho
law. More severe penalties also may
be imposed on soldiers who drink IL
QuOr.
The department of justice today
reported that United States attorneys
have prosecuted more than six hun
dred of such cases in the past six
months for violating the barred zone
regulations about army camps. Most
of the offenders were accused of SELL
ing liquor, and in many cases the H.
quor was found to be Of the moon
shine variety. Reports of such cases
were sent to government revenue
agents, who used them as tips on rum
ming down the places Of manufacture.

ZONE SYSTEM FOR

Washington, Jan. 5.-Continued
decentralization Of railroad transport

prompted railroad and fuel admins

developing a zone distribution system
for coal, and it a stated that some
definite announcement might be e
pected within a few days. The prin-
cipal features Of the plan will be put
into effect Immediately and it will be
improved as fast as new short routes
can be developed, and details work

in line with views held by some AM
erican officers here They feel that
had Germany really intended to make
a great drive they would not have
given advance notice Of it and are in
clined to the opinion that the Ger

set up the bogy of a great attack as
a preliminary to another peace drive.
The possibility is suggested here
that the allies may anticipate the Ger
mar attack with a great drive as the
British once did in Flanders.

Special Despo.ch to THr srS.

SYRACUSE, Oct. l3.-Mrs. Albert II.
Hiidreth. State chairman Of the Wom-
ems Democratic campaign committee
took exception yesterday to the state
ment made recently by Mrs. Arthur L.

of the women in the State want Gov.

Ter assertion that rs per cent OF the
new voters want Alfred 4. Smith
elected. Her statement, issued from
Democratic State headquarters here,
reads:
an regard TO Mrs. Arthur L. Liver
more's statement in the New York
papers saying her reports indicate that
at least 10 per cent. OF the women
want Whitman to be reelected I wish
to take issue. BY the canvass made
by the Democratic women we claim that
more than 10 per cent. of the women
want Alfred L. Smith elected. Mrs.
Livermore has given no reasons why
women should want Gov, Whitman re-
elected, and I know of none. Gov.
whitman Is appealing to the women on
the strength of his suffrage talk, but
not OF his deeds.
viii Mrs. Livermore explain why
Gov. whitman failed to appoint any
woman to a position with a salary.
THE reasons why the women will vote
for Alfred +. Smith for Governor are
many and are backed up with facts
Sixteen of these reasons will be released
for publication later In the week"
