NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-COast artil- lery men from Connecticut and scat tered states, and aero construction troops from Pennsylvania, Iowa and Oklahoma. who reached port today on the armored cruiser South Dakota, went through a storm two days out from Brest, described by naval officers on the warship as one of the most tempestuous they had ever experi- enced.
 Mountainous waves buffeted the ves- sel and one demolished the pilot house, injuring Captain Luby, Commander Caldwell and number of officers and sailors on duty. Commander Caldwell was disabled for week and his con- panions were badly cut and bruised.
 In the midst of the storm, with waves at times running 40 feet high two army surgeons performed an oper- ntion for appendicitis upon a soldier aboard the South Dakota.
 When the condition of Corporal F. O. Williams of the 56th coast artillery was pronounced dangerous, the war vessel lay to, in order to facilitate the operation. Lashed to the table, the surgeons accomplished their delicate task between lurches of the ship, and today the artillery man was removed 10 a hospital on the way to recovery.

 Tile affidavit will be turned over Monday to Charles R.

 Wilson Confidante- $100,- O00,O00 Appropriation Scheduled For Passage Tomorrow Opposition Is Loud But Not Sufficient
rRepublican A. p. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON. Jan. IS. - After many hours of debate, the senate failed to reach a vote on the bill. already passed by the house, appropriating $100. .000, 900 for European famine relief as urged by President Wilson.
 Despite the outspoken opposition of some members. republican and demo- cratic leaders expressed the belief that the measure would be put through Monday. They had hoped to pass 1t before adjournment tonight.
 Democratic Leader Martin and Sen ator Lodge spoke in favor of the meas ure, while Senators Borah of Idaho and Kenyon of Iowa, republicans. led the opposition. Senator Myers of Montana, democrat, also said he could not support the bill.
 The opposition largely was based on alleged lack of authority by congress to appropriate money, raised from the people for taxation, for European char ity. but also because it was asserted sufficient information justifying the appropriation had not been submitted to congress.
 Objection to feeding people of the enemy countries also was raised, and the senate adopted an amendment by Senator Lodge adding Austria, Turkey and Bulgaria, besides Germany, to the countries which shall not share in dis tribution of the funds. The Lodge amendment provides, however, that it shall not prevent food distribution to the peoples of Armenia, Syria, Greece and the Christian and Jewish people under the yoke of enemy governments
 Hoover Is Whacked
 During the debate, Herbert Hoover American food administrator, was sharply attacked by Senators Borah and Kenyon, who charged that his ad- ministration had favored the meat packing interests. Senator Borah also asserted that Mir Hoovers work had been carried out without thought oi the interests of American taxpayers Under Mir. Hoover's administration Senator Borah said, the packers ha6 made larger profits in 1917 than ever before, and he demanded that Presi- dent Wilson have the European work placed in the hands of some one more responsible to taxpayers interests. l In support of the bill Senator Mar ! tin cited precedents, dating back tt

PARIS. Jan. 1S.-Following is the address of President Wilson at the opening session of the peace confer ence:
 MT. Chairman:
 '1t gives me great pleasure to pro- pose as permanent chairman of the conference MT. Clemenceau, the presi = dent of the council
 q would do this as a matter of cus- tom. I would do this as tribute to the French republic. But I wish to do it as something more than that. I wish to do it as a tribute to the man.
 France deserves the precedence, not only because we are meeting at her capital and because she has undergone some of the most tragical suffering of the war, but also because her capital, her ancient and beautiful capital, has so often been the center of conferences of this sort, on which the fortunes Of large parts of the world turned.
 Tt is a very delightful thought that the history of the world which has so often centered here, will now be crowned by the achievements of this conference-because there is a sense in which this is the supreme conference of the history of mankind.
 More nations are represented here than were ever represented in such a conference before. The fortunes of all peoples are involved. A great war is ended, which seemed about to bring a universal cataclysm. The danger is passed. A victory has been won for mankind, and it is delightful that we should be able to record these great results in this place.
 ''But it is more delightful to honor France, because we can honor her in the person of so distinguished a ser want. We have all felt in our partici- patton in the struggles of this war, the fine steadfastness which characterized the leadership of the French in the hands of MT. Clemenceau. We have learned to admire him, and those of us who have been associated with him have acquired a genuine affection fol him.
 Moreover those of US who have beer In these recent days in constant consul. tation with him, know how warmly his purpose is set towards the goal ot achlevement to which all our faces are turned. He feels as we feel. as I have no douot everybody in this room feels ss " aiC ti usteu to uO q great tn1ng 10 do It in the highest spirit of friend snip and accommodation and to do il as promptly as possible. in order that me hearts of men may have fear lifted from them and that they may return tc these purposes of life which will brins them happiness and contentment an( | prosperity.
 Knowing his brotherhood of heart il these great matters, it affords me { ! personal pleasure to propose that MT Ciemenceau shall be the permanen chairman of this conference"
