(Signed) WOODROW WILSON"
Paris, Dec. 23.--The Presidents
first week in France finds the pre-
lminary situation surrounding the
peace conference fairly well developed
toward the point where. according to
the Presidents expressed view, It will
be worth while for the United States
to participate.
The Presidents conferences with
French and Italian statesmen have
served to emphasize that he considers
q treaty OF peace not enough, but that
the general agreement to be made
among the nations must include sat
isfactory settlement Of the question
Of the freedom Of the seas and a
league Of nations.
The President now goes to England
to continue the discussions there along
the same lines as those he had with
the representatives CT France and
Italy, which the Presidents advisers
describe as having been satisfactory.
President Wilson. in acknowledging
the honor bestowed upon him by the
University Of Paris In the form OF a
doctors degree. said: Il feel very
keenly the distinguished honor which
has been conferred upon me by the
great University Of Paris. and 1t Is
very delightful to me also to have the
honor Of being inducted into the great
company Of scholars whose life and
fame have made the history Of the
University Of Paris thing admirable

Of the world"

Diseases From Poor Water.
Among the ailments caused or In.
fiuenced BY contaminated water are
typhoid fever, tuberculosis, hookworm
disease. cholera, dysentery and diar.
rhea. and certain obscure maladies
that may be traced eventually to the
poisonous effects Of drainage from hu.
man wastes. Figure shows ln q
striking manner how Increased use OF
pure water In Massachusetts has been
followed by decline In the typhoid.

mountain spring or canyon Is center
Of goiter, although the possible rela.
tionship Of such water to this disease
has not been proved conclusiyely.
Among ailments Of live stock, hog
cholera, anthrax, and foot-and-nouth
disease are spread by moving water.
Hence sick animals should not have
access to streams, and dead animals
should not be left exposed In fields or
buried where drainage may carry In.

Ones duty to himself ana neighbors
should obllgate him to conflne all sick
animals and burn the carcasses Of
dead ones or bury them deeply In
spots remote from streams. wells and
springs. and urge his neighbor to do
the same.
The vital things to remember are
that ground water is not stagnant but
moves usually. though not always,
with the 'lax" or slope Of the land !;
that Its character determines largely
the character Of wells and springs

Safe Location Of Wells.

the change advisable.
The suspension is made effec.

it probably will last for three
months or longer.
Since all restrictions on con.

Food Administration now asks
