PARIS, Dec. 26.-The Tribune cor

conferences between the Allies will

or nearly fortnight earlier than the
date hitherto regarded as fixed.
These preliminary conversations will
be confined to four great powers
America, England, France and italy.
The other Allies will be invited TO as

corning them. Thus, in the affairs con-
cerning the Near East, Greece. Serbia
and Rumania will participate in the

ing upon Austria Hungary, Greece.

drop out.
The first three or four meetings will
probably be devoted to discussion be-
tween the four biggest powers on the
general European situation. Since the
discussions will be held here, the pre-
llmInary conversations will give the Al
lies an opportunity of getting in touch
with neutrals, particularly those who
have been sympathetic to the Entente.
Whether the ncutrals will actually
take part in the conference is still un-
settled 1t is understood, however that
the recent visit of Count Romanones,
the Spanish Premier, to Paris directly
concerned this.

Baker Wants
New Army of
Volunteers rs
Asks Change i'm Law to In
crease the Number of Reg
ulars for Peace Service

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.--Imm ediatc
legislation authorizing resumption of
voluntary enlistment in the army and
the repeal of provisions of the Sc
lectvc service act limiting enlistments
to the period of the war was urged to-
day by Secretary Baker in a letter to
Chairman Dent of the House Military
Committee.
Without the legislation. Secretary
Baker said, the army, after the proc
lamation of peace, would not have
sufficient forces to perform essential
military duties. including the policing
Of the Mexican border.
"Ths legislation is urgently neces
sary," he wrote, "because as soon after
the proclamation of peace as the exist
ing emergency will permit those who
have enlisted or been drafted to serve
during the emergency, must all, in ac-
cordance with the law, be discharged.
Demobilization of these men is now
being rapidly made, and it is expected
soon to release them at rate of over
0,o00 day, or 100000 a week.
"The only men who Will remain in
the service are those men enlisted in
the Regular Army prior to April I,
1917, and whose enlistments have not
yet expired. This small number have
been cut down by casualties and other
vicissitudes until the entire military
force Of the United States that can be
retained in the service viii be abso-
lutely inadequate and insufficient to
perform such essential military duties
as policing the Mexican border, gar
risoning our insular possessions, man
ming the scacoast defonces of the
United States. occupying permanent
posts and garrsons, guarding and pro
tccting the large amount of recently
acquired government property and
maintaining and operating the camps
and cantonmcnts in this country to
which troops returned from overseas
may be sent for prompt demooilization.
early passage of this legislation
viii enable the War Department to
replace by voluntary enlistment mon
drafted or enlisted for the emergency,
who can then be discharged from the
service and returned to their homes
and families"
A bill cmbodying the desired lcgis-
lation will be introduced tomorrow.
