Homeward Movement
 of Sick Progressing

IIeadouarters of the American Expedi- tionsry Forces in France, November 26. (Byt the Associated ss.)-Reports by the medical department show that the homeward movement of convalesceat sick and wounded American soldiers is pro- gressing rapidly and satisfactorily and when it is at full tide it probably will aggregate several thousand men daily.
 This will soon remove from France all American in hospital able to travel. For those who are forced to remain there will be a surplus of accommodations.
 There are today in France nearly 300,0O0 beds. Many of the American hospitals are in the most pleasant portions of France The base hospitals are organized to perform any variety of medical or surgical work, the hospital centers being divided into groups, each hospital de- voted to specific classes of injuries or diseases.
 The total number of nurses on duty for the American expeditionary forces exceeds $500. There are nearly 13000 docs tors in attendance.
 When the armistice was declared there was in process of construction for an ex- tended, lengthy campaign over 145,ooo beds for hospitals. The work on these has been suspended.

will be required. But the general idea will prevail. It has the support Of the President and Secretary Houston and others in authority It has the enthus- iastic support of every good roads ad- vocate in the United States, of the people and the press"
 The senator added that bone of contention at present regarded the ere ation of a commission to handle the funds under the supervision of the government, and to supervise the work. He gave it as his opinion that the President opposed the commission idea and held to the theory that that sec tion of proposed highway passing through a certain state should be con- structed, under the supervision of state authority and machinery.
 The details of the scheme will be worked out in the various committees of Congress and Tn conferences between the two houses. The legislation may take the form of an amendment to the Bankhead bill under which the gov- ernment is now cooperating with the states in the construction of high ways.

Ten Submarines Sunk
 by American Warships

London, November 26.-American naval headquarters announced that 1t has cred- ited American warships with sinking or capturing 10 German submarines. The British admiralty gives the Americans credit for nine, owing to the fact that one case is not absolutely certain. De- stroyers accounted for two U-boats, yachts for three, submarines for one and submarine chasers for four. Forty-six vessels were engaged in fights in which it was known that submarines were present.
 The navy places the total number of fights in which it was reasonable to sup pose that u submarine was lurking near at 500.

In case of disagreement between the two houses as to time of adjournment, he said, the President may adjourn them to such time as he shall think proper. This power, he admitted, had never been ex ercised in the past because the Presi- dent always has been at the seat of gov ernment while Congress was in session, and able to avert by friendly counsel and suggestion the necessity of exer- cising it.'
 MT. Wiekersham, in these points, de- clared the absence of the President in Europe would constitute an inability to discharge the powers and duties of his office"
 QUESTION FOR COURTS
 "The constitution" he concluded. docs not provide who shall decide when a disability occurs justifying the Vice President in assuming to act as Presi- dent If the Vice President should as- sume to act, and should himself veto bill and at the expiration of 10 days from the date of it's passage no veto from the President himself in writing should have been received, a question would arise for the courts to determine as to the powers of the Vice President to act for the President
 That these questions in the past never have arisen for actual decision is a trib- Ute to the wisdom of our Presidents in conforming with the traditions of their great office. with that unbroken custom which Iipens into law and in not sui fering the whisperings of personal am- bition to lead them to depart from the paths Of accustomed action, thereby avoiding the creation of new. uncertain and perhaps dangerous questions of con stitutional rights and power.''
 A GOING CONCERN
 John Barrett, director general of the Pan-American union, another speaker, suggested that the coming peace con- ference can find inspiration in the or ganization and record of the union which. he asserted, had 'as a great league of 21 American republics. been for many years a going concern, doing mighty work for peace and the development of good understanding, commerce and trade
 Mr. Barrett pointed out that since the founding of the union in 1906 there had been no war between American repub- lies, and that its moral influence un- doubtedly has been the effective preven- tive of several possible wars Actual power to present war on the western hemisphere should be conferred on the union, he said, ''by a brief international treaty of all the American governments v He declared the union to be '.the pro- totype of the proposed universal league of nations"
