He tells of stenoSraph who sought
to purchase tooth powedr at drug
store and nearly caused a diplomatic
breach" the incident ending with her
expulsion from the store. The writer
says that American correspondents. DE
lieving they could move about as freely
as they do in Berlin" tried to interview
a member of the German delegation on
its arrival but were sharply denied the
privilege.
Schuermann complains of the high
prices. especially since the German mark
must be transformed in francs. and says
the charge for making the exchange is
eXorbitant. He closes by saying
"Frenchmen are neither to petty nor
proud TO to cheap business with enemy
delegates"

Army Chief Will Be Proposed
at Party Gathering by New
Hampshire, Says Senator

Washington. May 5.-In the opin-
ION OF senator Moses of New Hamp-
shire, growing sentiment is spread
ing throughout the Republican party
for the nomination OF General Leon
ara Wood as tho party's candidate for
PRESIDENT in 1920. Senator. Moses
says New Hampshire will offer Gen.
woods name at the Republican Con-
vention as a favoraite son, and he be-
HeVes that the General, if nominated
would be elected.
Senator Moses says sentiment for
General Wood is developing in all
the New England states. as we'll as
throughout the West. He finds more
sentiment of the kind that elects
Wood than any other who has been
mentioned as a nominee in 1920" The
only question, he says. ia whether the
demand among the party's voters can
be transmitted into the kind of sem
tlment that produces delegates and
nominates Presidents"
Senator Moses SAYS New Hamp-
shire has prior claim to General
Wood, as he was born in that State.
but that Massachusetts also backs
him, a $ he entered the army from
that State. while Kansas has given
him her citizenship.
He will go to the convention" de-
clares the Senator, like Grant from
AppomatoX and its famous apple
tree, supported by nation wide cir
Gle of friends and, if nominated will
be elected"
The drift in the Republican Party
toward General Wood the Senator
says. us readily explainable"
The people" he said, ARE turning
away from Wilson who will return
home sadly diminished in spite of the
League of Nations and its initial ses-
sion to be held in Washington"
