If that should be agreed to, however

cussion of the role the president will
play at the peace conference and the

principles.

U.S.pEACE ENJOYS
President Wilson Selects Men to
Accompany Him to Con-
ference at Paris.
HENRY WHITE AMONG THEM
Former Ambassador to France Is the
Republican Representative-Nam-
ing of General Bliss Some
thing Of a Surprise.

Washington.-Pre Wilson on
Friday made public the American dele
gates who accompany him to France
to participate in the world peace con-
ference. Besides the president, the
American delegates are:
Secretary Of State Lansing.
Henry White, formerly American
ambassador to France.
Edward M. House.
Gen. Tasker H.. Bliss.
White House Statement.
The names were disclosed in the fol-
towing announcement from the White
House:
1T was announced at the executive
office that the representatives of the
United States at the peace conference
would be the president himself, the sec
rotary of state, Henry White, recently
ambassador to France; Edward M.
House and Gen. Tasker H. Bliss.
"It was explained that it had not
been possible to announce these ap-
pointments before because the number
of representatives each of the CHER
belligerents was to send had, until a
day or two ago, been under discus
Sion."
Bliss Name Surprise.
The only surprise in the announce
ment was the selection of Gen. Tasker
II. Bliss, former chief of staff of the
army and now the representative OF
the American war department in the
supreme war council of the allies.
For several days it had been gen
orally understood that the Republican
member of the delegation would be
Mr.. White. That Secretary Lansing
and Colonel House would be the other
members had been unofficially adj
mitted.
White Long in Service:
., Henry White, long in diplomatic
service, was the American ambassador
to France during President Roosevelts
administration. His diplomatic service
began in 1883, when he served for two
years as secretary to the American
legation at Vienna. He was trans
ferred to London in 1884 as second sec
rotary of the American legation and in
1886 he was made secretary to the lega-
ton there, being recalled by President
Cleveland in 1898.
During his career he also served the
government in special diplomatic ca
pacities, representing the United States
at the international conference in Lon
don, 1SS7-SS, for the abolition of sugar
bounties
He was a delegate from the United
States to the international conference
on agriculture at Rome in 1905, and
also was the American delegate to the
international conference on Moroccan
affairs at Algeciras. From March. 1908,
to March, 1907, Mr.. White was the
American ambassador to Italy, leaving
that important post to become the am
bassador to France, where he remained
until December, 1909.

SAYS TEACHERS SHOULD
AGAIN OFFER SERVICES

Washington, Dec. 2.-Conditions
arising from the war have drawn
great numbers OF teachers from the
public schools. colleges and univer-
stiles. Unless their places can be
supplied by others whose education
and experience fit them for teaching,
but who for one reason or another
have recently withdrawn from school
work, the children and youth of the
entire country must suffer an ire
parable loss.
This shortage Of capable teachers.
especially acute in some districts and
in certain lines Of education, is es-
timated by the bureau of education
at $4,000 for the various schools and
institutions Of higher education in
the United States. 1t is the patrio-
tic duty of all who can temporarily
return to the ranks of teaching, to
offer their services and to notify the
school board service division of the
bureau of education, Washington, d.
c., of the offer.
Often wives of soldiers and others
in government service could return
to teaching in grades Of school work
in which they have had recent ex-
perience. Former teachers of chem
istry, manual training and the like
now engaged in other work not so
vital to public needs, might again
he up teaching for time. Minis
ters and others who were once teach
ers might serve neighboring high
school on half time until war de-
mands are relaxed.
School boards, city superinten-
dents and other school authorities
should seek out such persons and
prevail upon those of especial fitness
come back into the profession at
least temporarily.
