then be punished by executive acts.
"For these punishments there have
been ample preccdents. The prisoners
can be put where they will bring no

--sftev the conferences he has had in

has made into the situation here,
President Wilson has come to under
stand fully why the peace conference
can not get under way before the first

prs of getting the American mis-
sion to the conference settled in its
Offices is tremendous job. President
Wilson's visit to the American troops

o;,t OF the way by the first Of the year.
