tai of 1882 men discharged from the
army during the week ending Dec. IA,
Gen. March announced today the war
department has about reached the av-
erage of 10000 discharges daily, for
which the rehabilitation plans call,

the latest official reports 26903 Of
ficers had been honorably discharged.

1853 came through Switzerland; 324

a continued search is being made for
isolated prisoners, British and French
officials in Switzerland, Holland and
Sweden and in Germany itself, aiding
in this search.

MIND OF WILSON

President Lets World Know
That He Has Not Come to
Europe Determined Against
Discussion of Principles.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
The News Selmltar's Special corre-



PARIS, Dec. 2l.--ln his negotiations
with the principal statesmen of Europe,
President Wilson has accepted the policy
of making 1t clear that ne has an open
mind on the practieaI application OF
each of his IA principles as a basis OF
peace. He has purposety denied the
newspaper statement that he was deti-
nitely committed to the plan OF the
American branch OF the league to en-
force peace in order TO emphasize that
he did not come to Europe with mind
closed TO discussion.
As a matter Of fact all Of the allies
have something more than q simple
statement Of the II points 70 guide them
because prior to sending the final notes
accepting Mr.. Wilson's proposal in re-
gard to an armistice with Germany, the
official heads of Great Britain, France
and Italy were given an opportunity
to ask the meaning or each article. A
lengthy memorandum interpreting the
IA principles was transmitted to them
by Col. House with the approval OF the
president. All were agreed to with
the exception Of two points, so that II
may be said that II the allies had in
tended to deviate from the IA princi.
pies every opportunity was given to
them before they sent the final notes
to Mr.. Wilson, which led to the armi-
stice.
