Asks Lansing for Permis-
sion to Avert German
Famine
Wants Assistance
Of Herbert Hoover
"Magnanimous Help" of
America Will Save the
Fatherland

BERLIN, Nov. 16 (By The Associated
Press Foreign Secretary Solf has
sent a message to Secretary of State
Lansing urgently requesting President
Wilson to give permission for Ger
man commission to Immediately leave
Germany for the United States so ns to
Law personally before the American gov
ernment the conditions existing here
and to assure the taking of steps to
purchase foodstuffs.
In his message tc Secretary Lansing
yesterday DR.. Solf. after appealing to
him to intercede with President Wilson
to send peace delegates TO The Hague
as soon as possible, ain order to save
the German people from perishing by
starvation and anarchy" suggested
that Herbert c. Hoover, the American
Food Administrator, be assigned to the
task of assisting the German people.
This section of DR.. Solf's message
reads:
"American delegates could discuss
with the plenipotentiarie of the Ger
man people the details of how the
magnanimous help of America could
save in time our Fatherland from the
worst. Perhaps the matter could be
put in the tried hands of Mr.. Hoover,
who has rendered such great ser
vices in Belgium.

Told
At Dinner He
Heads a Nation
First Czech President Says
Freeing of Small Nations
Means New Era

When Thomas G. Masaryk arose
from his bed, in the Vanderbilt Hotel.
yesterday morning he was private
citizen Of that portion of Eastern
Europe that has been fought over half
dozen times during the last four
years.
BY the time he had reached the Law
yers' Club for luncheon he had been
accepted as the honored guest of the
city.
AT the dinner hour, as the guest Of
honor at banquet at Delmonico's, he
was the duly accredited President Of
the new CzechoSlovak Republic, with
population Of more than 10000, 900
and an area of slightly more than four
times that Of Belgium.
Modest Under Honors
DR.. Masaryk refused to be elated at
the change in his position during these
few hours. If anything, the furrow in
his studious brow deepened and he be-
came more serious than when he bore
only the responsibilities of an envoy
of the subjugated peoples who have
suffered for generations from the dep
relations of the Teutonic races.
81 can't tell you just what my poliies
as head of the new republic will be-"
he said. ~ don't think it would be
wise to reveal my plans to the Ger
mans as yet. l don't know whether
the fighting is over. 1t may be that
we will have further trouble with
Germany over our boundaries: If so,
l don't think we ought to meet those
problems until they arise"
The actual notification of his cleo
ton to the presidency of the baby re-
public came some time between the
oysters and fish at a Lawyers Club
luncheon. Somebody handed him
telegram; he bowed, continued his
conversation for a few minutes, then
glanced at its contents, after which he
thrust it in his pocket and continued
his discussion of the merits of the
coup. A few minutes later he referred
10 the fact that the Czecho- -Slovak Re-
public had been proclaimed by the
National Assembly, which, according
to a cablegram from Prague by the
way of Berne, had ratified mis- election
as President.
Finally Explains Views
Even former Senator Chpuncev M
pepew, who occupied a seat a short
! distance away from the new President,
forgot his customary blase attitude and
showed his interest. But DR.. MasaryA
only smiled, and told the waiter that
he used neither cream nor sugar in his
coffee.
1t was not until the Delomnico din
ner, given by r. J. Caldwell, that Dr..
Masaryk revealed his views, as newly
elected world ruler, of the destinies Of

Wilson at Peace
Table WouldBe
World Adviser
Could Settle Disputes of All
and Guide Delegates
Of America
By Theodore M. Knappen.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.--All of the
Allies arc earnestly urging President
Wilson to attend the peace conference.
The smaller states and the newborn
nations are especially insistent. The
great idea is to have him there as the
Colonel House Of the world
Officially he will not be a delegate
to the conference, according to the
plan that is now coming into favor.
He will be nothing but the President
f the United States
He will be the most powerful person
in the august drama, but will have no
role. What Colonel House has been
to the President the President is now
cast to be to the world in conference.
The Grand Buffer
1t is conceived that if the President
is present while the peace conference
is in session he will prove to be the
grand buffer between conflicting inter
national ambitions, the great concili-
ator of disputes and composer of diff
ferences. As the President of the ma
tion that has no territorial interests
at stake and whose substantial inter
ests are not likely to be affected one
way or the other by the conclusions
OF the conference he will be the final
court of appeal of all
If he were member of the Ameri-
can delegation and were regularly to
attend the sessions of the conference,
he might, it is feared by advocates OF
the unofficial role, become involved in
the debates and lose some of the aloof-
ness from direct interest in its trans
actions that would be the essential
strength Of his position as confidential
spectator and informal adviser.

dreadful panic developed in Munich on

calm, but suddenly all sorts of alarm

Cries were raised in the streets Of

guns were posted on the street corners
and began firing. For two days the
greatest disorder prevailed throughout
the city. Railroad trains and street
cars stopped running and telegraph

The arrangements in force are such
that, although advancing much as it
might along the country roads of the
United States, the entire formation
could be altered almost in minutes to
battle formation. Divisions moving on
the front will have others in support
and the fanks will be carefully covered.
In addition, long line of observation
balloons will be up behind the lines,
and they, too, will be moving slowly
forward, observing the movements Of
the retreating Germans.
The aviators, however, will have lit

comes, in which case they, too, will be
ready for immediate action.
The advancing Americans will be

will cross the Belgian border. The
