THAT President Wilson will participate
actively in the campaign against Boil
sheyisn, while in Europe was the intina'
tion of his friends here today.
He is expected to make speeches not
only in France. but certainly in lta'y
and probably in England, setting forth
the aim of the associated governments
TO uphold the cause Of free peoples and
support law and order, that the world
may rapidly resume its normal course
again.
The keynote of his proposed effort
is expected to be sounded In speech
or message to the people OF this country
before he sails. or It may be covered IN
his message to Congress outlining what
he believes to be the fundamentals OF
this nations readjustment work.
Prepare Peace Data
Meantime, behind the glamour Of the
Presidents forthcoming trip. the diplo-
mats of the world are working fever
jshly to compile their data for the peace
conference and determine upon the main
uropos,tions which must be cleared away
promptly that trade may be resumed
and employment made available for the
millions who have been under arms or
at war work for years.
II is pointed out that danger comes
with idlenesy and for that reason diplo-
mats are anxious to have the principal
questions OF the peace conference dis
posed of rapidly, that men may turn
from guns and suspicion to toll and
profit.
Russia is striving to be represented
sat the peace conference as q stable
nation
The diplomats here say this angle in
Kolchak's seizure OF the Omsk Govern
ment, for they believe he is seeking to
bring order in Russia, to dodge Boil
shesism, to have Russia do her own
policing and thus escape long-continued,
or Increased Allied-American policing.
II he can succeed in getting stability,
Russian authorities hold that the nation
will seek a seat at the table

dent and Secretary OF State.

would Give Up Rhineiands
Another phase of peace speculation
here among diplomats concerns the
Rhineiands. Diplomats declare Prussia
is willing to sacrifice this territory to
avoid some of the indemnity burden
here this sacrifice would leave her gold
free for development purposes and later
the militarists might arouse the old war
spirit by making the martyr-like appeal

FISH AND GAME
HEARING. BATH

Better protection of the partridge

were the subjects of discussion at a
hearing in the aldermens room at

and the sportsmen are anxious to

The open time now is from Oct. 1
TO Dec. l and there was some talk of
proposing a permanent close time for
a year or two but the gunners do not
want it to- come to this unless it is
absolutely necessary to keep the
birds from becoming exterminated.
Some of those present favored the
Pennsylvania idea of setting aside
certain game preserves upon which
no hunting should be allowed for a
period of years. For instance, tax
ing a section in West Bath or Phipps-
burg, running single wire around
it and not allowing any cunning
whatever on that territory for long
period. BY so doing the birds would
soon find safety there and would go
to this preserve to breed and to re-
main for a time. This plan has
worked well in Pennsylvania, so the
sportsmen were told, and the gunners
of that state are enthusiastic in sup
port of the idea.
1t was also suggested that every
resident gunner or fisherman should
he compelled to register, paying
smal, fee. perhaps % cents, and be-
inc piven a card or badge by which
