By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2-Ameri- can prisoners returning from Ger man prison camps complain of scanty food and bad housing conditions, Gen. Pershing has informed the war department, but there IS no evidence of discrimination against Americans -or any authentic report of brutality toward them.
 The war department today, issued the following statement based on a cable from Gen. Pershing, dated Nov g and sent in reply to an inquiry cabled by Gen. March:
 American prisoners released from German prison camps complain of poor and scanty food and bad hous- ing conditions Only small per centagc Of those who are sick arc hospital cases. The majority are sui fering from slight colds and the pros pect is that all will recover rapidly with proper food and housing. There is no evidence of discrimination against the American prisoners. Among 7C00 prisoners of all nation alities who have been released there is no authenticated instance of bru- tality against the Amicans.
 "The majority of the American prisoners state that the German sol diers also suffered food privations but that in cases where the supply of food was insufficient, food for the prisoners was cut off before that for the German soldiers"

After six years of continuous ser vice as associate editor of the Jour nal-Mincr, r. R. Mines has resign ed his position to accept the position of private secretary to Governor elect Campbell. As there is con siderable amount of preliminary work to be done before the new governor takes his seate Mir. Mines left Sat urday to enter upon his duties.
 While the Journal-Miner will miss his forceful pen and his expressive and snappy "heads" that appeared on the telegraph page, yet the change will be to his benefit after years oi nightwork that required him to be on duty daily until 4 o'clock in the morning.
 Having a predilection for politics, Mir Mines foresaw the possibility of making Mir. Campbell the chief executive of Arizona after the Yava- pal man was elected State tax com- missioner, he being the only candi- date on the Republican state ticket that year who was successful. Out side of his newspaper connection Mir Mines also has worked necessarily and enthusiastically since that time for the ultimate success of Tom Campbell, and without hope of politi- cal reward The honor came to him unexpectedly and without solicitation on his part, and it was only accepted after deliberating over the matter for week. The Journal-Aiiner staff wishes him the greatest success ir | his new field of labor.

 LONDON, Dec. 2-(Via MontreaD Walter Hume Long, secretary of state for the colonies, disclosed the fact that he was a member of the committee mentioned by the premier on Nov. 29 to consider the terms that should be demanded from Germany. Therefore he could emphasize that the empire need have no anxiety on the ground of undue tenderness on the part of Great Britain and the AL lies.
 He said that although he did not desire to enlarge the British empire. he saw no alternative to the solution of the problem of the German col onies save by their inclusion in the empire. Where the natives have con suited they overwhelmingly favored that course, he said.

SSSSSSSSSS answer ready. The only thing that is perfectly clear to me IS that 1t IS not fair either to the public or to the owners of the railroads to leave the question unanswered and that it will presently become my duty to re- linauish control of the roads, even before the expiration of the statu- tory period, unless there should ap- pear some clear prospect in the mean time of a legislative solution. Their release would at least produce one element of a solution, namely cer- tainty and a quick stimulation of pri- vate initiative.
 q believe that it will be service able for me to set forth as explicitly as possible the alternative courses that lie open to our choice. We can sim ply release the roads and go back to the old conditions of private man agement, unrestricted competition, and multiform regulation by both state and federal authorities: or we can go to the opposite extreme and establish complete government con trol, accompanied if necessary, by actual government ownership; or we can adopt an intermediate course of modified private control, under a more unified and affirmative public regulation and under such alterations of the law as will permit wasteful competition to be avoided and a con siderable degree of unification of ad- ministration to be effected, as, for example. by regional corporations un- der which the railways of definite area would be in effect combined in single systems.
 "The one conclusion that l am ready to state with confidence is that t would be disservicc alike to the country and to the owners of the rail roads to return 10 the old conditions unmodified. Those are conditions of restraint without development. There is nothing affirmative or helpful about them. What the country chief lv needs is that all its means of transportation should be developed, its railways, its waterways, its high ways and it's countryside roads"

The president said in part: Gentlemen of congress:

Gentlemen ot congress-:
 The year that has elapsed since l last stood before you to fulfill my constitutional duty to give the congress from time to time informa- ton on the state of the union, has been so crowded with great events, great processes and great results that I cannot hope to give you an adequate picture of its transactions or of the far-reaching changes which have been wrought in the life of our nation and the world.
 You have yourselves witnessed these things as I have. It is too soon to assess them, and those who stand in the midst of them and are a part of them are less qualified than men of another generation will be to say what they mean or even what they have been. But some great out standing facts are unmiStakable and constitute in a sense part Of the pub lie business with which 1t is our duty to deal To state them is to set the stage for the legislative and cxecu- tive action which must grow out of them and which we have yet to shape and determine

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. - Con- gress in joint session today heard the president announce formally his pur- pose to attend the peace conference and give his views on the part the government should play with after war problems. The threatened inter- ruptions by republicans who disap- prove of the trip of the president and his failure to include senator among the peace delegates, however, did not materialize.
 During the first hour of the new session Senator Cummings of Iowa introduced resolution to send a committee of eight senators to Paris and in the house, Rodenbarger of H. linois offered resolution proposing that the vice-president take the regis- lstive functions here.
 The presidents address viewed at length the nations accomplishments in the war, paying tribute to armed forces and the loyal workers at home. Among other things it was disclosed that he thinks that the problem of readjustment is taking care of itself without government aid. In speaking of this he said:
 Tt promises to outrun any inquiry that may be instituted and any aid that may be offered It will not be easy to direct it any better than it will direct itself. The American business man is of quick initiative" :"
 Of the railroad question, the president said that he had no solu- ton to offer. He said he was ready to return the lines to private control whenever a satisfactory arrangement was offered to prevent the return to the old system under private manage ment without moderation, and asked congress to study the subject His recommendations included g renewed appeal for woman suffrage, a request for an early and favorable action on unratified Columbian treaty, and a suggestion that uthority be given the war trade board or some other body to continue control for a time over exports.
 Speaking of his trip to the peace conference, the president said that since the associated governments had accepted the principles enunciated by him and really desired his personal counsel in their interpretations he re- garded it his paramount duty to go. He told congress you will continue all that I do," and appealed for the encouragement and added strength of the united support of congress.

AN EXTRA SESSION?

WASHINGTON, Dec. ?. - With the solution of the railroad question being left to congress, it seems likely that an extra session may have to be called next year for such purpose, which no doubt would be favOrably construed on account of the change of complexion which by that time will have occurred in both houses. The remarks of the president on the railroad question are construed as constructive.

 The plot collapsed owing to the fact that a secret service agent ovei- heard a telephone conversation. Many arrests have been made in Der ii;n ss @thsr-citics while the govern ment has long list of suspects who had planned to seize members of the present government.
 No direct evidence of William Hohenzollern's connection with the plot has been found, it is said, but it is believed that the outline of the plan was brought to Berlin by two of his suite who recently went 10 the German capital for the ostensible purpose Of taking the wife of the for mer emperor to Amerongen, Holland
