British and French commanders in
the Turkish capital have not acted like
conquerors and imposed their author
ity on the Turks.
The correspondent declares that he
was unable to convince the Turks of
the complete victory of the allies and
of the definite crushing of the German
military power, and adds that this is
due to the fact that the allied troops
did not enter STEAMBOAT with flags fly
ing, because the allied officers did not
install themselves as masters in the
different ministries, and because the
military authorities did not take over
all the administrative offices and po-
lice the city.
The committee of union and prog
ress no longer exists, legally, says the
Frenchman, but its creatures still oc-
cupy their posts in the ministries ano
in the police service. "They are very
active and offer us very bitter anc

Wallace Tells POincaire People
Must Be United.i in Peace.
American Ambassador Hands
Credentials to French Govt.

Paris, April 22-Hugh C. Wallace,
American ambassador to France, in
presenting his credentials to President
Poincare today. said that in addition
to comforting peace upon the world, it
was necessary to unite the people in
support of It. Mr.. Wallace said:
"Mr. President: I have the honor
to present to your excellency the let
tiers which accredit me as ambassador
extraordinary and minister plenipo-
Tertiary of the United States to the
French republic. 1 am indeed hon
ored, for / come at the end of the
world war to salute victorious France
in the name of the American people.
In that struggle Frenchmen and Amer
leans fought side by side until the
| final victory was won on French soil
under French command; and Paris for
time the capital of the world, now
| is witnessing the erection of the tenn
pie of peace.
1--WE hope to dedicate that temple in
the name of the league of nations and
make it its home; for the great war
which was fought in the defense of
civilization should be the last conflict
of mankind. When victory came it was
| complete and the peace which is to
follow should be enduring. 1t now is
the task of the allied nations to con-
fer that peace up humanity, but first
| to unite the world in support of it. At
that end labor and the great task of
reconstruction, France and America.
| one in aim and principle, are working
with united energy.
ST am fortunate, Mr.. President, to
| come to you at such a time for my
opportunity is great. Great also is
my responsibility but my task itself
should be easy. The deeds we have
done and are yet to do, together need
no Interpretation. Words fall from
| our lips in different accents but as
| friends and allies, in war and peace,
we speak the common language of the
| heart"

SOLDIERS HOLD STRIKERS
Five Hundred People Stand on Irish
Bridge All Night.
(By the Associated Press.)

Limerick, April 23.-The five hun
dred strikers who went outside the
military limits Of the city Monday
and who were not permitted to return
over the SarsfieId bridge in the evening
because THY would not show military
permits, spent the night on the bridge
and resumed their demands in the
morning. The soldiers were still OBJ
durate and would not permit the
strikers to cross the bridge. Up to
noon today there had been no clashes
between the opposing forces.
The break of day found wan and
hollow-eyed crowd of men and women
shivering in the chilly weather. They
were taken to cottages on the Clare
side of the River Shannon and given
breakfast by friends and sympathizers.
Some of the older ones had been pro-
vided with beds during the night on
cottage floors, but most of the crowd
spent the night in the open. The at
titude of passive resistance" was con-
tinued during the night by the strik-
ers. The military maintained a strict
guard with large forces of sentries and
the guns on the armored tank were
fully manned. The plan of the strike
leaders is to continue to demand en-
trance into the city without passes in
the hope that the military will finally
yield and thus bring the pass system
to an end. If this plan fails the lead
ers say they have other plans to try
tonight or tomorrow.
The treasury notes. issued by the
labor council, appeared in Limerick to-
day. The notes, which will be used in
the purchase of food, it was an
nounced, will be redeemed in regular
money once week. Mayor O'Mara
accompanied by members of the
clergy, went to the bridge and made
a formal request of the officer in COM
mand there that the people on the
other side be allowed to cross into the
town. The officer referred them to
General Friffin, in command at Linn
erick. The general offered to send a
pass officer to the bridge and promised
to supply passes to those persons
whom the consta bularv would recon-
mend. The offer was not accepted.
