BERNSTORFF NOT
IN FAVOR GIVING
KAISER TO ALLIES

Paris, Dec. 26.-"All the belliger-
ents have accepted President Will
sons IA points, and the only ques-
lion to be discussed is their inter
pretation," said Count Won Bern
5torff. former German ambassador
TO the United States, in giving his
opinion of what Germany's attitude
would be at the peace conference,
according to the Geneva corre-
spondent of the Matin.
Germany" the count declared,
will keep to the presidents pro
gram, which grants each people or
an clinical group the right to dis
pose of itself"
Asked if he thought the presi-
ient's program would furnish the
basis for lasting peace, Count Won
Bernstorff shrugged his shoulders.
This is the only one which can
be proposed at present" he added,
and the attempt must be made to
apply it. At any rate, We shall
support it.
When he was asked by the CORE
spondent what attitude Germany
would adopt toward the east, he
replied:
''All the questions concerning the
new states which have sprung up
on the Russian frontier are the af-
fairs of the allies. Let them Olsen
tang1e things as best they can. We
wash our hands of Russia. We are
content to safeguard as far as pos
sible the integrity OF our territory,
consulting at the same time the
viii of the populations"
Asked about the white book which
Carl Kautsky is said to be prepar-
ing in Berlin, Count Won Bernstorff
said:
Il don't think the book will re-
veal the individual possibilities
Ct the persons who directed Ger
many in 1914. 1t viii rather show
the collective faults of the regime
Il do not favor handing over the
kaiser TO the allies. A sovereign is
not responsible for the policy OF
his government"

LEGISLATION ON
WHEAT tSASKED
Government Asks Price Guarantee
Made Effective and a Safe
guard Against Losses.

Washington. Dec. 26.-LegisIa-
ton to make effective the wheat
price guarantee for the 1919 crop
and at the same time to safeguard
the government against losses was
recommended to congress today by
the department of agriculture and
the food administration.
A memorandum sent to represen-
tative Lever of South Carolina,
chairman of the house agricultural
committee, made the following re-
ductiOnS:
First-Extention by congress be-
the government purchase Of the
1919 crop.
Second-COntinuance of the food
administrations grain corporation,
or creation of a new agency to buy,
store and sell 1919 wheat that may
be offered to the government and !;
Third-POssible legislative pro-
visions to protect the government
against wheat or -four brought in
from other countries during the
period of effectiveness of the guar
anteed price and also to protect
buyers of such wheat as long as the
wheat is in this country and not
consumed.
The memorandum was compiled
with the approval of President Viii
son. and Secretary Houston in sub
mitting it said. THE government
has made a guarantee and it goes
without saying that it must be
made effective"
Regarding extension of the date
Of the government purchase, the
memorandum said:
at will be impossible to carry
out the guarantee as II is intended
by June /. 1920, and II producers
cannot sell their wheat to the
United States before that date and
are left with wheat on hand, it will
be felt that the obligation OF the
United States has not been carried
out in good faith.
The governments purchasing

forth. must have ample funds TO
at all times purchase throughout
the United States at the guaranteed
price such wheat OF the 1919 crop
as may be offered to Il and also to
provide storage facilities to take
care of the same by lease or pur-
chase of facilities now IN existence
or by building additional facilities.
or both.
"The appropriation viii have to
be on a basis to enable the guar
antee price 10 be maintained at all
times by purchase of wheat with
funds provided by the government
and without relying on outside
credit"

DESTRUCTION OF
FAMOUS BRITISH
SUB BY FOE TOLD

London. Dec. 25. Via MonrealD }
The official report of the sinking
of the famous British submarine
Ella off the Dardanelles early in
1918 with the loss Of her command
er. Lieutenant Commander Godfrey
White. and all except seven of the
crew, has just been published
The ETA left Mudros on the ev-
ening OF Jan. 27 and proceeded up
the Dardanelles to search for the
Goeben After diving under sub
marine nets, she found that the
Goeben had departed. Commander
White then turned back.
A torpedo was fired at the ship
which carried the GOeben's ammu-
milton. causing a heavy explosion
which eXtinguished the submarine S
lights and sprung the fore hatch.
Leaking badly, the submarine rose
to the surface. The forts opened a
heavy fire, but did not hit her. She
submerged 100 feet and continued
on her course, but becoming un-
steady she was brought 10 the sur
face. Heavy fire Immediately open
ed on both sides of the straits and
a shell hit the hull, destroying the
upper steering gear.
An Ella survivor says: Orders
were given to steer from below and
we ran the gauntlet for half an
hour, only a few shots hitting us.
The captain, seeing that escape was
ran towards shore. His
last words We're. We are in Gods
hand Only a few seconds later I
looked for him and saw his body,
mangled by she'll fire, roll into the
water and go under. The last shell
hit the starboard side of our boat,
killing all near it, I believe. The
submarine soon after ran into
sand bank inshore and the Turks
picked up the survivors,

apart from the historic significance
Of reviewing fighting men on for

When addressing his troops as
fellow Countrymen" he told them
that he believed that he could
promise them q Happy New Year"

the address and friends about Mr..
