Depot Brigades

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15-Uses TO
which several national army can

Camp Lee, Va; Camp Meade. Nd,
and Camp Mcclellan, Ala, are now
put may be completely changed
when they are vacated by troops
now under training. as a result Of
general staff studies Of the handling
CT divisions scheduled for embarka-
ton for Europe and of the training
OF replacement troops.
Under the plan which has met
with general approval among Off
GERS familiar with the problem, the
whole system of divisional depot
brigades TO handle replacement
troops would be abandoned. Instead
a full division each OF infantry and
artillery. Professionally organized for
training purposes, would be assem-
bled at two environments and go for
ward from these two central de-
pots. Similar replacement forces
for all signal corps troops except
the aviation service would be or
ganized at another cantonment. A
replacement cantOnment for the en-
gineers is now being constructed at
Belvoir. Va, near the city.
AS TO embarkation problems it
has been decided that two addition
al embarkation camps must be pro-
vided. Camps Dix and Lee may he
selected for this purpose.
Under present embarkation ar
rangements. an outbreak of disease
at the concentration camps to which
troops are sent before they so
aboard ship might result in quaran-
tine and a complete tie-up of the
flow of men to France. With two
additional camps available there
would be little likelihood of such a
difficulty.
In addition. troops could be held
longer at the embarkation cam ps
and while there old uniforms and
equipment could be taken up and
replaced by the outfits TO be used n
France. saving the issue depart
ments in Europe that work.

Trotzky. The Zeitung Am Afittag
goes so far as 10 say that there are
proofs that Trotzky's promise Of
Russian Generalization is a sham
maneuver II declares that reliable
reports report the bolsheviki as
energetically forming a Red guard
army out Of the remnants OF the
Russian army in the hope Of raising
million men 20 establish bolshevik
power Ira the border states.
4 dispatch from Brest-Litovsk re-
ceived in Amsterdam Monday said
that Russia had declared the state
OF war TO be at an end and that the
Generalization Of the Russian
armies on all fronts had been or
dered. Russia, il was added. did
not design a formal peace treaty
with the central powers.
It is Indicated in the above dis
patches that Foreign Minister Trotz-
ky may have made further proposals
20 the central powers. II such is
the case. no report concerning it has
been received in this country. There
have been no direct dispatches from
Petrograd for several days. A Rus
sian official message received ia
London Tuesday confirmed the
Brest-Lito,sk statement that demo-
b.lization had been obtained. Since
then there have been no advices
from Petrograd.

AMBASSADOR READING

WASHINGTON. Feb. Is. - Earl
Reading. new special ambassador
and high commissioner Of Great
Britain TO the United States. Thurs
day formally took up his duties
with carte blanche 20 consult free
ly with all the agencies OF the
American government to further
the war aims Of the two countries.
This course was urged upon him
yesterday when ne called upon
Pres't Wilson at the white house
TO present his credentials.
The righteous cause we are
now prosecuting the president
told him. will serve 10 bind more
closely the people OF all nations
which desire the triumph Of JUS
tice and liberty and the esta bIish-
ment Of "a peace which shall last"
In presenting his credentials.

VIENNA CAN 7 SEE
WILSON s SPEECH
Press Declares Ii Calm, But
That 1t Can't Bring
Peace.

AMSTERDAM. Feb. 15.-Pres't
Wilson's latest address. Vienna
newspapers believe, Is calmer in
tone than his earlier declarations
and perhaps may make possible
the continuance the exchange of
views, but they think the contents
Of the speech hardly calculated to
bring peace nearer.
The Neue F'reie Presse considers
that Pres't Wilson made a mistake
in extolling Count Czernin and in
sists that Count CZernin and other
ministers have always made clear
that any attempt 10 interfere with
Austria Hungary's international
policy would be inadmissable.
"Pres't Wilson" il says, will
possibly finally realize that any pol
icy which seeks to provoke discon-
tent between Austria Hungary. and
Germany is only a waste of time,
especially where Count Czernin is
concerned"
Think Allies Disappointed.
The Neue Wiener Journal thinks
that there will be some disappoint-
ment in London. Paris and Rome
that Pres't Wilson did not allow
himself TO be deferred from reply
ing 10 Count Won Hertling and
Count Czernin by the decision of
the Versailles council 1t adds:
1T is "A great triumph for Ger
nin's policy that PTes't Wilson in
full contradiction 10 the Versailles
decisions. resumes a discussion of
war aims. which the entente col
leagues reject. This will strength
en- the impression that Pres't Will
discussions 1t is also surprising
that Pres't Wilson that he does not
wish to interfere in European af-
fairs and is willing to learn about
another way to peace"
Calls Address Calm.
The Arbeiter Zeitung describes
the address as being very calm and
very objective. 1t says it is framed
in very cOnciliatory language and
thinks that it is an important step
toward peace. The newspaper
contends that it is now the turn
of Count Won Hertling and Count
Czernin to speak again.
The Reichspost says that Pres't
Wilson's principles have "one good
quality, namely, that they can be
applied TO the entente powers"
The more widely this is done. it
allies be prepared to give his four
,,,ipcinIas an intPrDrpta ton ac-
ceptable to the central powers.

German Press Thinks Trotzky's
Rehabilitation Order a Sham

AMSTERDAM. Feb. 15.-Judging
from the latest indications in the
German press. much dissatisfaction
and suspicion has been aroused by
the --latest move OF Foreign Minis
ter Trotzky. Imp0rtsnt political
military leaders are said TO be con
ferring busily 70 md the best solu-
ton 90 the puzzle.
The Kreuz Zeitung OF Berlin on
Tuesday declared ION reliable infor-
nation" that TrOtzky's proposal is
iu no circumstance 20 be regarded
as a peace offer. while 10 Is pointed
out by Other papers that the Rus
sian war theater was mentioned es-
pecially iE the official army report
OF Tuesday a Berlin telegram to-
the Koelnische Volks Zeitung IF
"Wednesday says.
The government Is not willing
10 continue relations with Russia
on any basis whatsoever unless the
present Russian government signs "a
regular peace treaty. As. however
10 must be reckoned for the present

think OF signing any formulated

created which makes necessary

government and the supreme army

emily inspired passage adds.

IS realized that the question or the
big army Of German and Austrian
prisoners Of war on Russian terri
tory still controlled by Petrograd
cannot he overlooked"
A telegram from Vienna TO the
Taglische Rundschau says.
1T is pointed out in well inform
ed quarters that the confusion and
uncertainty of internal conditions in
Russia demand that the central
powers adopt a cautious and wait
ing attitude and that in spite OF tho
absence of a formal conclusion If

exchange Of prisoners.

fact that three hours after a mes
sage was sent out announcing the
issuance OF a Generalization order
90 the Russian army another Rus
sian message WIS issued ordering
that circulation Of the cOmmunica-

There is a good augury for the
wearing of silk and fine materials,
