VERSAILLES, SETTLING
CENTER OF ACTIVITY

(By Robert S. Domain in Louisville
Herald.)
Paris, April 90 (by MALL His
torci Vervailles, during the present
offensive, is a seething center of ac-
tivity. 1t is here that the Inter-Allied
War Council meets daily. Their ses-
sions are held in the Trianon Palace
Hotel overlooking the meadows
which stretch westward toward the
Petit Trianon and the Hamlet where
he ladies of the French court amused
themselves at playing as villagers a
century and a quarter ago.
CHARTERED in the hotel are the
stats of all the allies. Italian Off
GERS brush shoulders with American
officers in the corridors of the trans
formed hotel, while outside American
military chauffeurs of Italian descent
exchange the gossip of the day with
the green-clad soldiers of Italy who
pilot Italian staff officials back and
fourth from the front. In barracks
nearby are quartered soldiers of all
the allied nations. Italian, French.
Belgian, British, American, Portu-
guese, Serbian, Montenegrin, even
Brazilian, Greek. Cuban and japanese
officers pass along the street in be-
wildering variety of uniforms.
On one OF the great avenues of Yer
SALES thousands of touring cars are
lined up. They streatch away in
rows ten cars wide on both sides of
the avenue for block after block and
are guarded by dozens of poilus and
French colonial troops from Cochin
China. A small army could be moved
rapidly in these squadrons of Ameri-
can-built cars.
The frequent air raids on the dis
trict of Paris have caused the state
to take precautions for the protection
of the treasures at Versailles. The
deep windows Of the Grand Palace
are being blocked with sandbags
and the innumerable statues, foun-
tains. marble vases and other works
of art are being rooted over with
wooden scalfolding on which are piled
brush and sandbags.

Rejected SELECTS
To DO GUARD DUTY
10000 Unfit For Regular
Army To Go Into New
Militia.

Washington, May 11.--Organiza-
tion of the United States guards was
resumed to-day by the War Depart
ment's militia bureau. The depart
ment has placed at the disposal of
Mai. Gen. Jesse McCarter, chief Of the
militia bureau, 10000 drafted men
who, after training with the national
guards or national army divisions,
have been found disqualified physical
ly for general military service.
Want Twenty-Five Battalions.
II is intended to recruit twenty-five
battalions of four companies each, a
otal of 10 900 men. When the project
was first approved some weeks ago,
twelve companies were organized and
are now in service. Volunteer enlist
ments will be accepted to a limited
degree through the regular army re-
cruiting officers, but only men who
have had prior military service and
who can produce the best discharges
will be eligible.
The twenty-five battalions will be
distributed among the military de-
partments as follows: Northeastern
department 3, eastern department g.,
southeastern 2, central 2, southern 5
and western 4.
80 Officers Needed.
''here will be required in all 775
ulcers. and these will be commission
d upon recommendation by Gen. Car
ter, who will base his action on the
result of examinations conducted by
boards convened by department COM
manders
The services of the organization
will be utilized to release an equal
number of federal troops now engag-
ed in guard duty at munition plants
and shipyards. The men in the force
will not be used on the battlefields of
Europe for the present." officials of
the War Department said
The United States guards will be

munition and will carry the old model
of infantry equipment.

was to have special advantages be-
cause of Borglum's association and
Friendship with the President.
Negotiations between Borglum,
Hugo Gibson connected with the Brit
ish War Mission in the United States,
and Kenyon Mix, Of the Dodge Manu-
featuring Company, of Wisconsin,
began last December, the docu-
ment show. A statement by Mix, in
cluded in the document, tells how he
withdrew after becoming suspicious
of Borglum activities, and reported
the affair to Howard Coffin, then head
of the aircraft production board.
BOrglum's Assets.
A summary of the negotiations
signed by Henry Harrison Suplee who
participated as a consulting engineer
for Mix, declared Borglum was to be
represented in the corporation by a
Mr.. Harris, and that Borglum's sole
asset in the transaction was to be
first, his personal friendship and as
ISOLATION with President Wilson
whom he stated he could do anything
he wanted with"
CAS- futher asset" Suplee's
statement declares, "Borglum gave
everyone concerned in this matter to
understand that his position with the
ircraft production board and the aer-
ial section of the Signal Corps, U. S.
A., was such that he could obtain for
their use plans and technical details
which this company could use, and
thus save considerably, both in time
and in money in beginning opera
TONS"
This statement, the documents
show, was made to Mix after Borglum
had shown his Presidential authority
as investigator, and at this point the
uspicions OF Mix were aroused and he
withdrew from the negotiations.
The documents also declare Bor-
glum told Mix that through his
with the White House and
acquaintance with Mr.. Gibson, the en-
gineer in the employ of the British
of Munitions, he would have
access to the best foreign and Ameri-
can designs and practices"
Suplee's statement futher declares
that Borglum gave him to understand
that the personnel of the aircraft
board was highly distasteful to him"
and that he proposed to change it "by
virtue of his friendship with Presi-
dent Wilson" and asked Suplee to
suggest men for the places.

CHICAGO PASSENGER
TRAINS DISCONTINUED

Washington, May 13.-Director
General McAdoo to-day ordered cur
tailment of transcontinental passen-
ger schedules from Chicago west, eff
fective June 2, to save 1,72S,000
rain miles a year by eliminating COM
petition and cutting down running
schedules.
The curtailment, with reductions
previously made, are expected to re-
suit in a saving of about S1S,OOO,-
600 a year. Under the new arrange
ment the Santa Fe will be the prin-
cipal road carrying passenger traf-
fc from Chicago to Los Angeles,
the Chicago q Northwestern, Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific to San
Francisco; the Burlington and
Northern Pacific to Portland, Ore
and the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul to Seattle.
Fast trains vii make the trip to
all four Pacific coast terminals IN
seyenty-two hours and secondary
trains in seventy eight hours. Ex-
ira fares now charged on few fast
trains will be eliminated.
Mail schedules will be rearranged
to establish a parity for all the ter
minals and intermediary commercial
conters so that the new plan will not
discriminate against any city. The
reductions are to be effected mainly
by taking off a number of local
trains and adding their traffic to the
through trains, whose length and
running schedules consequently will
be increased.
The public will be adequately
served under the new arrangement,
said a Railroad Administration an
nouncement, but probably more up
per berths will be sold. A similar
curtailment is now being worked out
for Southwestern territory, About
100000 train miles already have
been saved in the Eastern district

NOT OPPOSED
TO EXPRESS MERGER

Washington, June ia persistent
rumor in Washington that Postmaster
General Burleson had protested TO
President Wilson against the proposed
merger OF the express companies into
a new company. to be under govern
ment control, found it's way into print
today The report In Washington had
II that Mr.. Burleson had persuaded
the president to decide against the
railroad administration's plan. and
that the signing of the contract be-
tween the express companies and the
railroad administration would be post
poned indefinitely.
There was but one explanation tc
Mr. Burleson's reported interest in the
matter, and that was that the express
companies. under government control
might seriously interfere with the par
cells post business of the postoffice de
psrtment and materially reduce the
revenue of that department.
Postmaster-Ge neral Burleson de-
MED tonight that there was any truth
whatever In the report. He said he
would be glad to have his denial made
emphatic and given the widest pub
lcity Some time ago he wrote the
president a letter on the subject OF
government control OF express com
panies But since Director-General
McAdoo, on behalf OF the railroad ad-
ministration, has taken up the ques-
ton OF bringing the express com
panies under his control. Mr.. Burle-
son has said nothing about the matter
and made no recommendation to the
president or any one else.
