ALLIES CONSIDERING
PRESENT WHILE US
CONSIDERS FUTURE
American Delegates Want Re-
Organization OF Interna-
tional Relations.
By J. w. T. Mason


(Written for the United Press)
New York, Dec. 14.-The program
suggested by President Wilson for the
consideration of the peace conference
throws the chief Importance of the
work of the conference upon the fu-
ture, while mcst of the allied powers
are thinking principally about the pre-
sent.
The allies are primarily interested in
repairing the damage which the wal
has done to them materially, Industrial
ly and financially. The American del
egates to the peace conference are
more Immediately concerned with a re-
organization of international relations
such as will make warfare more diff
cult
The allies thus have their minds cen
tered on today, while the Americans
are more inclined to consider tomor-
rev. There is no necessary clash of
interest in this fact. 1t is more mat
ter of emphasis and of the relative de-
gree Of actual harm inflicted by the
ravages Of the war;
Can Have No Future.
Certainly there can be no future for
some of, the allies unless the damage
done by the Germans is repaired lin
the present. The primary requirement
in dealing with wound is to cure it
The safeguards against repetition of
the injury can come later
Regarded from this viewpoint, the
allies are certain for the most part to
be more concerned about the amount
of indemnity they can get from Ger
many than the establishment of a
league of nations or discussion con-

Paris, Dec. IA. - President Wilson
arrived in Paris, the present capital of
the world, at l0:01 o'clock this morn
ing.
His arrival was heralded by the
booming of guns throughout the city.
Vast thrOngs in the Champs Elysees
set up a tremendous cheer Tremedous
crowds lined the entire way from the
r9ilway station to Prince Murat' g pal
ace, which will be the first foreign
home Of an American president.
President and Mrs. Poincare greeted
the American executive and his wife
on the station platform. The two presi-
dents rode in one carriage and their
wives rode in another. Both carriages
were decorated with flowers.
As the presidential party left the
station they received a tremendous oya-
ton from the crowds. The carriages
started up the street, preceded by
mounted guards, and with carriages con-
tanning other members of the official
Setinue in their wake.

M 'ADOO WRITES ID MOTHER Of
 FOUR SOLDIERS

Secretary McAdoo has written Mrs. W. B. Gurley, of Germantown, Pa., who has four sons in the army and fifth ready to answer the call, the following letter:
 My Dear Mrs. Gu-ley:- My at tention has been called to a news paper clipping which says that four of your sons are already wearing the uniform; that fifth is ready to answer the call; and that you as chairman of the Woman's Liberty Loan committee of Germantown. will direct force of thousand workers in an effort to sell million dollars of Liberty Loan bonds.
 Few finer demonstrations of patriotic devotion have come to my attention than this. The spirit which animateS you Is the spirit which will make America victorious. Our na- ton, like you, has sent its sons to battle. But it is not enogh to fight. These sons must be protected to the utmost limits of the nations power. The best protection we can give them is to provide them with the best equipment that money can buy. The proceeds of the sale of Liberty bonds are used for this sort of pro- lection for American boys,
 "The women of Ameflca nave re- sponded nobly to the country's call. Permit me to extend my congratu- lations to you as typical repre- sentative of the great army of American women who have enlisted to make the Third Liberty Loan a demonstration of the united spirit of our people.
 Cordially, yours,

In order to determine whether any drainage exists under the ice which partly covers the track in the neighborhood of Lost Slough, and to arrange to put on the steel gang at the earliest possible monument, a series of holes were sunk in the ice at intervals, for some distance along the right of way.

appallingly unfortunate But the ne
cessity for national organization So
cializes the nation capable of it; or,
to putth matter more truly, if the
socializing process had anticipated the
war-as it had in Great Britain-the
ability to complete it under stress is
the test of democratic nation, and
hence the test of democracy, since the
socializing process becomes interna-
tional. Britain has stood the test, even
from the old-fashioned militarist point
OF view, since it is apparent that no
democracy can wage a sustained great
war unless it is socialized.
After the war she will probably lead
all other countries in a sane and SCI,
entific liberalization. The encouraging
fact is that not in spite of her liberal
ism, but because of it. she has met
military Germany on her own ground
and, to use vigorous. expression, gone
ner one better. Britain's democratized
army is better supplied and more sci
sntifically organized than the despot-
led forces that oppose it. Taking all

officers Of the United States army and

Lieutenant TuOhy disappeared at

Lieutenant Tuohy's father, William
Tuohy, is due to arrive tonight to take
