Cologne, Saturday, Dec. Col
ogne, like other German cities, is
seething with political ideas born
of the revolution. Various factions
are at grips over the future govern
ment of the Rhineland, which with,
Westphalia, was declared separate
republic at a meeting of radical So
Gil Democrats the other dy.
Split on Separation.
The conservatives are holding out
for a United Germany. 1t is said
that a separate republic, which
would be known as the republic of
Northwest Germany, has not yet
fcNl proclaimed definitely by the
radicals who never liked the Prus-
sian government and profess to care
less for the present regime in Berlin.
The Rhinelandas a whole was against
the old regime, but the people, while
united in this, have split on the rock
of possible separation from Germany
Stirred by Bolsheviks.
The soldiers and workmens' coun-
ell of Cologne is cooperating quiet
ly with the old city government after
the stormy days of month ago.
The first flare Of the revolution in
Cologne came on November 7, when
so marines arrived here fresh from
the mutiny in KieI and started trou-
BILE for the authorities. The way al
ready had been well paved by Rus
sian Bo1sheVilSi.

BRITAIN DEFINES
Her SEA VIEWS
Will Not Abandon Right
Of Blockade For Free
dom of Seas"
fRx ArsocIated Press. !

London. Dec. 10.-One of the
gravest problems at the peace con-
ference will be based on what ls
meant by freedom of the seas" and
what concessions Great Britain is
going to make In that direction, said
Sir Frederick e. Smith, attorney
general, in a speech at Liverpool
yesterday. He added that he was en-
gagged in preparing a memorandum
on the subject for the war cabinet.
America has rendered brilliant
service in the cause OF civilization"
Sir Frederick said, and Great Brit-
ain Is bound to approach the con-
ference with determination to
concede everything possible to
American sentiment and American
views, having regard for national Ee-
curity and existence OF the empire.
Seas Free In Peace Time.
Americans must remember that
the seas are free to everyone I'm
peace time and that to none has that
freedom been denied. In time of
war, however, one might as well
talk of the freedom OF the land as
the freedom OF the seas. Imagine
Belgium, Northern France or Serbia
talking about freedom OF the land.
The moment war arises great coerc-
i've and primeval forces assert them
selves and the reign of law is aban-
doned for the assertion OF naval and
military forces. Belligerents during
the war had a right to carry on war.
Reutrals had the right to carry on
trade. But IL there was a collision
between the right OF belligerent TO
put restraint upon the enemy and
the right of neutrals to carry on
trade, the subordinate right OF the
neutrals had to give way to the in-
perial primary right OF the beliiger-
ent.
BIockades Legitimate.
It has been recognized for more
than three centuries that a nation
which is supreme is as much entitled
10 impose its win maritimely on In
ferior enemies by blockade as a ma
tion stronger on land Is able TO ifn-
pose its viii militariIy on a weaker
nation.
Britieh Will Not Reeede.
II am not sure that Great Britain
with not have to say to the allies sc
the peace conference: We shall be
quite satisfied with such a defInl-
tion OF freedom Of the seas as viii
enable the British navy, In the saal
fortunate event Of future wars, 10 10
exactly what the British navy. aided
by the American navy, has been doc
ing for the last lis months. =

Munich. Sunday, Dec. S.-Premicr
Eisner today called on the people OF
Bavaria TO maintain strict order. He
says that the disturbances such as
those that occurred Friday night can
not tobe tolerated and that the troops
assigned to preserve order have been
instructed to use their weapons

Will Not Restrain The Press.
The premier adds that he is con-
fident the trouble which led to the
attack on Herr Auer, the minister OF
the interior, arose through news
paper chickering's over himself and
Auer who was defeated for the prem
iership by EIsner. Nevertheless, the
premier refuses TO curtaiI the free
dom OF the press. In replying to a
newspaper which urged him to follow
this course. he said: Under no cir
cumstances can permit any abuse
of the guaranteed freedom Of the
press"

TATE DENTISTS.
3, :::;,.;:::3i'AD NATION In.
N WORK PERFORMED.
FOR DRAFT men.
Twelve Thousand Opera
tions Donated by 163
Practitioners

North Dakota dentists lead the
nation in work performed for draft
men. according to a final report re-
cefVed today by DR.. Albert Hallen-
berg, Fargo, state director Of the
Preparedness League of American
Dentists, from William D. Tracy,
New York director general.
One hundred and sixty three dem
lists in 46 counties of the state do
mated more than $4,000 operations to
draft men. No draft man who re-
ported to his local dentist on call
went into service with impaired
teeth.
North Dakotas' record compares
with other states in the union as
follows:
Minnesota. with 1,219 dentists, re-
ported 32,395 operations.
South Dakota. with 242 dentists,
reported 1854 operations.
Montana, with 284 dentists, re-
ported 1888 operations.
New York, with 4,S63 dentists, re-
ported 79,909 operations.
Il am proud Of North Dakota and
her dentists DR.. Hallenberg said to-
day. mo draft man who reported
when he was called went into the
service with poor teeth. This work,
which was done without, charge or
compensation of any nature except
the satisfaction Of a patriotic duty
well done. has saved army dentists a
great amount Of work and has made
for the better health of the. men in
service"
The record of Fargo dentists is
100 per cent, DR.. Hallenberg said.
National Organization
The Preparedness League Of
American Dentists is national or
ganization, organized shortly after
the outbreak of the war. State di-
rectors were named, who organized
the dentists in their respective states.
The system employed was to get ad-
vance lists Of draft men called for
service. apportion them to the Yari
Gus dentists and send the men no.
tices that If they would report to a
certain dentist any work on their
teeth would be done without charge.
The total of such gratis operations
reported in the United States, ac-
cording to the final report, was more
than 100000.

Wilson Refuses
To Visit Huns

Paris, Dec. 10.-According to a
wireless dispatch from the u. S. s.
George Washington, says Marcel Hu-
tin in The Echo de Paris, President
Wilson has been informed that Pre-
mier Ebert and Foreign Secretary
Haase of the Berlin government, and
Premier Eisner OF Bavaria, were
about to make an effort to get him
to visit Germany. The president is
quoted as having made this reply:
"Only by long years OF repentance
can Germany atone for her crimes
and show sincereity. No true Amer
lean should think of visiting Germany
unless forced to do so by strictly
official obligations"
"That is to say, decline in ad-
vance to consider any suggestion OF
this kind"

CLANS GATHERING
in PARIS FOR THE
PEACE MEETING:
U. 5. Is LARGEST
Hotel Space Overtaxed-
Many Conflicting Inter-
ests in Evidence
tBy Associated Press.l

Paris, Sunday, Dec. S.-EVery
train arriving at Paris brings large
numbers OF officials attached to the
various delegations of the peace con-
ference. All the larger allied ma
tions are continuously sending parts
OF their working personneis ana by
then time the delegates gather the
number OF officials OF all nationals
ties will number between 5000 and
5000. -s.
The French delegates VIII have all
their assistants near at hand for the
large STATS OF the admiraly and war
and foreign ministry will be con-
EBfantly available.
Big British Force
The United States force viii be.
large. Great Britain win have a
large number OF experts and assist
ants in Paris and in addition, staffs
in the London governmental offices
will be available for work which is
not particularly urgent Moreover
there will undoubtedly be in Paris
Representatives of Great Britain's do
minions and colonies with their
stats. Great Britain will have in
Paris experts OF various sorts, in
cluding men who have made a life
study of such subject as the navy,
colonies. the far east and the near
east.
u. s. viii Have Largest Bunch
The United States, because of it's
will be obliged to have
probably the largest and most COM
plete staff and for this reason the
American authorities have been COM
PEELED to take over larger accommo-
dations than any other delegation.
Italy will also have considerable
working force here. but the dele
gates, as in the case of Great Brit
ain, will be able to depend on much
of their work being done in their
own country.
Hotel Accommodations Scarce
will have at their disposal their own
private telegraph and telephone
wires with which they may commu-
nicate with their respective govern
ments. So many hotels have been
taken over by the peace delegates
and the remainder OF the hostelrfes
are so overcrowded that IL is impos-
sble for soldiers TO find accommoda-
tions in the city.
Many Conflicting interests
A large number OF the officials of
the leading powers are receiving
many representatives OF small ma
tionalities or groups Of nationalities
who have interests which they intend
to bring before the conference. Some
Of these represent governments
which have not even been recogniz-
ed, and in few cases there are two
groups Of Representatives Of the
same nationality. each claiming TO
represent the majority party and
anxious to put forward its claims
and statements.

Including Victor L. Berger of Mil
waukee, charged with violation of the
espionage act, was resumed in feder-
al court today, only FIVE OF the. twelve
men offered by the government yes
terday, as jurors. remained for ex-
animation Four peremptory chal-
lenges had been exercised and three
veniremen had been removd bcause
of antt-socialistic war views. Ques-
tioning of prospective jurors by de-
9endant,s lawyers was thought to in
dicate that citizens who had been
active in the various governmental
agencies which worked for the win
ming of the war were not desired as
jurymen. yeniremen also were
closely questioned as to their attitude
toward conscientious objectors and
advocates against the United States
entering the war.
