CONFUSION IN LONDON
OVER WILSON'S VISIT
King Cancels Trip to VEL
come Him at UnknoUn Date.

LONDON Dec. 19.-There is undis-
guised confusion in American centres
here as the result of the change in
President Wilson's plans regarding his
coming TO London, and those most di-
rectly interested are anxiously await
ing an official notice Of the Presidents
up to noon to-day.
King George. 1t was announced to-
day, has cancelled his visit to Sand
r!ngham Palace for Christmas. He will
remain in London instead to welcome
President Wilson.
With nothing more definite than the
British official announcement of last
night to work upon the naval repre-
sentatives are trying to reach Ameri-
can naval headquarters in Paris TO
learn what they can concerning the
Presidents trip.
In the absence of such notification
Il is recalled that the President is re-
ported to have ceased to consider him
self an official guest of France when
the official reception ceremonies ended.
1t also is pointed out that the Ameri-
can naval authorities abroad were not
hOtiuSN tildt tuc EISslutnt WIS SOillltk
to Europe until he was almost here,
and that the plans of the navy to es-
cort him were in reality unofficially
planned.
U. 8. Destroyers stiiI There.
1t was suggested in American CEN
tres to-day that the President might
come to England in a French or Brit
ish vessel, although there is nothing
available at the British Admiralty to
show that such plans are. contemplated
at present.
All of the American battleships that
were in European waters have sailed
for home. but there are plenty Of
American destroyers for the escort OF
any vessel bearing the President.
The reception of the President in
London will not be participated in by
the American Army to any extent, ac-
cording to Indications. Major -Gea.
John Biddle, commander OF the Ameri-
can forces in England, is still here, but
most of the troops are homeward
bound or are preparing for the trip.
British army officers, ever since 1t was
announced that the President was
coming to England. have been ex-
pressing the hope they would have the
entire honor Of supplying whatever
military forces were required for the
protection of the President and for his
guards Of honor. and for any occasi IN

was added that he feels this position
Is In consonanee with hts expressed
attitude that no one nation should as
sumo the role Of master at the con-
ference.

Black Walnut Trees
 Are in Demand by
 the War Department
Government Requests the Owners oi Black Walnut Timber to Commu- nicate With Ordnance De-
 partment at Washington

With the increased output of air planes and small arms for the United States army the demand for black wal nut also increa ses. The ordnance de- partment is searching the country for tinker of this character suitable for propellers. and still the demand can { not be satisfied.
 During the past few months a half dozen letters have been received hy civic bodies and war boards in Bir- mingham making inquiries as to the available black walnut timber in this section of the country, and also as to whether or not there are any mills now cutting that kind of lumber, and if not whether any of the present plants can be conveniently converted into mills for work of that character.
 Yesterday Regional Adviser T. IL Aldrich of the resources and conver- . sons section of the war industries board received a letter from the ord- nance departm making further in- < quiries and requesting that any per- son owning such timber communicate with the ordnance department, proJ- uctions division, small arms section Washington, D. c.
 Trees that are less than 12 inches in diameter are unavailable for arr plane purposes and persons having timbers of less measurements need not write to the department. Only small part of the timber is used for air planes. the balance being made up into the rifle gun stocks
