GERMAN RADICALS
ARE BEING ISOLATED
"Die Freiheit's" Editorial
ShoWs Spartacus Slump.
ny me AssoctG cd Press.

BERLIN. Dec. 22-DtG Freihcit. which
steadily drifted toward the Left (the
Spartacus group up to the final day
of the congress in Berlin of Work
mems and Sailors Councils, took a
long step backward to-day in the di-
rection of the Right (the Social Demo-
crats) in discussing edltorially the re-
suits of the congress.
The newspaper Ceclares that while
the wishes OF the simon pure Socialists
were not fulfilled, the work accom-
plished, nevertheless. has great value.
1t accepts Loyalty the decision of the
congress to set forward the date for
the national assembly, merely remark
ing that the time for propaganda is
short. 1T is undeniable the situation
Is not especially favorable for the in
dependents" Die Frcihcit says.
The entire tone of the editorial has
served to strengthen the impression in
well informed circles that the more
sober elements OF the Independents
gradually are drifting back into the
majority fold. 1t is thought that the
movement may not be completed for
months, but it already is obvious that
Georg Ledetour and his radical fol-
lowers steadily are becoming isolated
and eventually will he obliged TO
choose between the less radical leaders
or going over to the Spartacans.
PARIS, Dec. 22.--The first elections 10
the new German National Assembly
are symptOmatic of what the final re-
suits will be, says a despatch from
Berne to La Journal. In the duchy of
Brunswick, where the minority party
had assumed power. the defeat Of the
Bolsheviki was crushing. In MeCklen-
burg and Anhalt, where the majority
party was in control. the bourgeoisie
also came out victorious.

Originally there were twelve sep

Soon after the signing OF the armistice
they were amended by the lifting OF
restrictions on sugar and the use OF
substitutes for wheat -four and up to

TASK TOO BIG FOR SPEED
Spcc.e1 Des patch 10 THE Sun.

WASHINGTON. Dec. -. President
Wilson is not expected to advocate
that hi' league of nations plan he
worked 1us in detail and made part of
the peace treaty. according TO officials
here Il n position to discuss the work
Of the American peace delegation.
The development ; abroad and the
necessary details in getting TO
business make it probable. it is
explained, that the President will
concentrate his efforts on getting the
'principle of 5he league of nations"
indorscd IL the TcIce pact Itself in
such manner as 10 guarantee the
future development or the programme
"nd leaving the actual working ont Of
the plan TO later datc.
In making this statement officials
do not pretend to have direct word
from the President. and likewise do
not admit tina; events of the last ten
days have necessitated any radical
change of programme. They tak- the
position that the President. from the
very nature Of things. could hardly
have hoped TO see II detailed plan
completed by next spring or summer.
when the peace pact itself may he
agreed upon. The peace Pact is, there
fore. referred to as constituting the
preliminary work of the negotiators
with the league OF nations plan ami
other matters making up later con
ferences.
Separate From Peace Pact.
In this connection it is significantly
. recalled that the President himself, in
announcing his intention to go abroad,
stated that he was 2oinS To attend the
peace conferences" and not the peace
conference" This may OF course mean
that the President simply spoke in
general terms OF tie day by day con-
ferences which Will he necessary TO
conclude peace, but there is general
View in some quarters that the Torasi-
dent was FULLY aware that certain
matters would have to be made sub
jects for separate and distinct con-
s!deration apart from the actual MAX
ing OF peace with the enemy.
There is still much mystery as TO
Just what the President means whom
he states that the leaEuc Of nations
must he part of the peace pact itsclt
but the only explanation officials ran
fad is that he means that the prn-
ciple and not the detailed plan must
be indorsed by all the hellrserentS. and
that some pledge must H. agreed upon
to hiring the league of nations project
later to fruition. No other alternative
seems now probable in view OF tho
circumstances.

They Had Met Before.

Men whe are wounded above the
waist are not here, they have gone
on" answered the soldier simply.
One of the men the President came
70 stood proudly erect with medals
on his blouse and one arm out
stretched in an appliance for restoring
It's usefulness. He looked suggestively
like traffic policeman on duty.
I'm glad to sec you looking so
cheerful" said the President.
You have seen me many times be-
fore, Nj. President" responded the
soldier. "I used TO he traffic police
man at the Central station. Don't
you think | look natural?'
The President laughed softly. 1t
probably was the only merry moment
he had in the hospital.
Another strapping fellow gave his
name as Private Wilson.
81 am proud to know I have n name
sake like you" said the President
1T is n very honorable name. I only
tried to do 1t proud responded the
soldier.
one soldier had lost both legs by
a shell 81 am thankful they didn't
get an arm." he said chcerfuily.

their loved ones at home with new
feeling OF JOY. alike in their recovery
and in the fine service they have been
able 10 render
Going to the American hospital with
the expectation of remaining an hour,
the President found four hours all too
short, as he felt that he could not
leave without speaking with every
man. and he expressed regret only of
his inability to clasp the hand of every
American soldier in France.
The President looked tired and worn
when the ordeal was finished. for not
withstanding the cheerfulness of the
men and the care which they were
receiving, there were many affecting
cases in the wards.
When he came to one very badly
wounded the President sat on the edge
of the cot for a moment and asked
where he was from. how he had been
wounded, and admired his war 'crosses
and decorations. Noticing that many

THE BLARNEY
 STONE

Blarney is village in Ireland, in the County of Cork, about seven miles from the far-famed city of that name. It is chiefly celebrated as giving the name to a peculiar kind of eloquence which is said to be characteristic of the light-hearted natives of the Emerald Isle. The old castle at Blarney contains the identical stone, the kissing of which is believedAto give the person peeu- liar skill in speech. It is one ,of those superstitions which can be traced back until the mind of man runneth not to the contrary. Ex.
 (The original Blarney Stone must have been miniature quarry by itself; about the size of SleAge Island", we presume. And venture to say that, some of those whom we know and who are at present resid- ing within a hundred miles from here, in the past, demonstrated to us by their persuasive eloquence that they have not only kissed the famous rock, but that they also ate chuncks of it, and it's surprising as well as extremely marvellous, that any part of the Fcmous His torical Castle" remains to be seen.
