more than n week. To pacify the Sem
ate at all now the President must per-
-ect some means whereby the leaders
there OF both parties, and the members
Of the Foreign Relations Committee
particularly, are kept fully abreast OF
every detail OF the progress OF the
peace negotiations. Senator Hitch
cock (Neb.), chairman of the Foreign
Relations Committee. served public
notice to this effect when II FIRST be-
came fairly certain that no Senators
would he appointed on the delegation.
1t now develops that at the outset
OF the preliminary conference between
the President and the Entente leaders
the President, acting as the American
representative, may be called upon to
say whether the people of the United
States are for or against the policy
of exacting from individual RESPONSE
BILE Germans punishment for their
crimes against civilization.
Two Prcmiers In Accord.
Premier Lloyd George Of Great
Britain in his speech just cabled here
serves notice that the British Govern
ment will demand such a course. Pre-
mier Clemenceau OF France is under
stood TO favor the principle of individ-
ual punishment melted out to response
BILE Germans from the Kaiser down.
There is admittedly a question as to
whether this squares with the Presi-
dents frequent announcement of jus
tice tempered with mercy, and the
latest public statements by members
of the Presidents Cabinet here indi-
cate strongly that the President will
be averse to indorsing punitive JUS
tice.
In deciding this question the Presi
dent will have to speak in his ca
pacity as representative of the
American people and will have to give
virtually a definite yes or no answer.
In such matters as freedom OF the
sea, league OF nations, &c. the Presi
dent might feel that the Senate would
have an opportunity to make its views
felt by public expression here as mat
tiers progress.
No Opportunity for Expression.
But in the matter OF deciding
whether the American people are for
or against punitive justice there will
W ohutA thC pan HO
tunity for the President to do more
than express his individual opinion
on that score.
Many here contend that should the
President favor leniency or mercy to-
ward individual Germans responsible.
for the sinking OF the Lusitania, the
Smelling OF lifeboats Of American
merchant ships and transports or
other acts of barbarism he would not
be rejecting the sentiments of the
American people. There are ad-
mittedly some who are against punt
tive justice, but the opinion in Con-
gressional circles is that the vast ma
Jority of American people indorse the
policy OF definitely fixing responsible
lty wherever possible and then de-
manding full and stern justice for the
crimes.

LONDON, Nov. PA German ma
ruary to decide upon the future form
Of the Government. II Is proposed for
this purpose to compile the new reg
lister Of voters on January for the
election OF delegates to the assembly.
Meanwhile the Berlin Socialist Gov
eminent is arranging a complete re-
distribution OF constituencies through
out the former German Empire. Elec-
lions for delegates to the assembly are
taking place on the basis OF this re-
distribution, whereby the Socialists
and coalitionists believe they will OBJ
tain large majority Of the delegates
owing to the preponderance Of the
working class vote.
There are three separate groups in
opposition to the Socialist coalition
These are: First. the Liebknecht-
Rosa neutrality-suspicious. ex-
tremists; second, the Bavarian Repub-
lie, led by Kurt Eisner who mistrusts
the Berlin regime because 1t includes
Solf and Erzberger; third. on-Social-
list democratic groups represented by
the Frankfort Gazette and the Berlin
Td0ebldtt, the group Of progressive
radicalism in industry and high An
arice.
All OF these opposition groups are
more or less in favor OF a national as
sembly and the earliest possible es-
adjustment of some republican form
OF government, but none OF them
trusts completely the dictatorship OF
Ebert and Hasse. and Scheidemann.
The non-Socialist democracy declares
openly that the Ebert Hasse party
seeks merely TO establish an autocracy
of their own upon the ruins OF the
Hohenzollern autocracy.
The German Government should beg
raw materials from the Allies as well
as food, declares the Frankfort Ga
zette, which adds that the Government
should move forcibly and promptly in
this direction. 1t continues:
our factories and mills are no less
starved than our stomachs. II our
victorious foes are sincere in their
protestations of desire to enable us
to get upon our feet they should see
that raw materials are sent to u.s."
A recent advertisement in Vor-
tcdcrts. the leading Socialist newspaper
In Berlin, stated that foreigner who
was leaving Germany would be glad
to accept important commissions from
responsible houses to make purchases
in neutral countries as we'll as in
countries with which Germany still
was at war formally.

Great britain, recalled the agreement
made between the two countries in
1904 and the efforts Of both Great
Britain and France to avoid war in

by her naval. military and moral eff
fort during the war had added an in
comparable chapter to her splendid
history. He praised the work of the
British army and the efforts of the
British navy. concluding:
The pre-war friendship has
changed into an active alliance which
will find in the peace negotiations a
rev utility. We have suffered to-
gether and won together and are
united forever"
King George recalled the vain ef-
forts of the Germans to capture Paris
and the final triumphant campaign of
the Allies under the direction of Mar
shall Foch. Both nations. he added,
had struggled for civilization and
right and had learned to appreciate
each other. He hoped that the union
of hearts and interests. resulting from
the war, would always help to main
tain peace.

DELEGATES HAVE HAD
A WIDE EXPERIENCE
Haze Performed Many Impor-
tont Missions Abroad.

Robert Lansing, Secretary of State.
who entered President Wilson's Cab
met June %, 1915, as the successor of
william j. Bryan, has had wide diplo-
matte experience and frequently has
represented the United States in inter-
national disputes. He was admitted
to the Bar in 1889 and is recognized
authority on international law. Mr..
Lansing was associate counsel for the
United States in the Behring Sea ar
bitration in 1923, counsel for the
United States before the Behring Sea
Claims Commission in 1861, and
solicitor and counsel for the Federal
Government under the Alaskan boun
dairy tribunal in 1908. He again acted
as United States counsel at The Hague
in the coast fisheries arbitration in
lsOs-10. He was agent Of the United
states and British claims arbitration
in 1924. On March 90 OF the latter
year he was appointed counsellor for
the State Department
Col. e. NJ. House, the close personal
friend of the President, has, despite
his lack of official status hitherto,
probably n more intimate acquain-
ltance with all the diplomatic dealings
of the United States with Germany
and the allied Powers, both before and
after the entry OF this country into
the war, than any other man outside
of Mr.. Wilson himself Col. House
sailed for Europe on his first trip in
behalf of the President two weeks
after American forces occupied Vera
Cruz In the spring of 1914. 1t had
been planned many months before.
Since then. in his capacity as unofH-
cial adviser to the President, he has
made frequent other visits. He did
much to obtain Germany's promise to
abandon illegal submarine warfare
and was amazed at her announcement
that unrestricted sinklngs would be
resorted to and at the failure of his
efforts to bring about situation
which would enable the United States
TO maintain it's neutrality.
Gen. Tasker NJ. Bliss, the represent
alive of the United States in the SUI
preme War Council in France and
formerly Chief OF Staff of the United
States Army, was an honor graduate
from West Point in 1875, ana has had
many missions to perform during his
OF the Cuban customs service after
the war with Spain, and was sent as a
special envoy to Cuba to negotiate the
reciprocity treaty with this country in
1902. The next year he was made the
commandant of the Army War Col
lege.. He has served on the Joint
Army and Navy Board and in the Phil
ippines.
Henry White, formerly Ambassador
to both France and Italy, began his
career as secretary to the American
Legation at Vienna in 1888. He went
to London the next year as second
secretary Of the legation, being pro-
NOTED to secretary in 1885. President
Cleveland recalled him, but he again
went to London, this time as secretary
OF the Embassy. in 1897, remaining
until 1905. He represented the United
States at the international conference
on Moroccan affairs at Algeciras in
1906. He was the American delegate
to the fourth Pan-Amerlcan confer
ence at Buenos Ayres in 1910.
