IN this work, will enclose with each
check sent to grower a circular letter
giving the name of the firm which
handled his wool and which has re-
turned the excess profits, of which the
customer is receiving his share.
No Refunds TO Consieners.
The department calls attention to
the fact that the regulations of the
war industries board did not permit
the purchase of wool In the great wool
growing states of the Rocky mountain
and Pacific coast region except in the
case of clips of less than 1000 pounds
each. All larger clips were required to
be consigned. This region produces
about two-thirds of the entire wool
clip Of the country. which was about
257 100000 pounds in 1913. Growers in
the eastern states were urged to pool
and consign their woods and many of
them did so. Since the government
paid the dealers a fixed commission on
consigned wool. excess profits could be
made only on that part of the wool
which they bought outright. Therefore,
growers who consigned their clips
should not expect to receive refunds.
Since the government control Of wool
has ceased the work Of the department
of agriculture In this connection con-
sists only of auditing the records and
accounts Of apprOvedsw0ol dealers, the
collection of any profits which they
may have made in excess of those per-
mitted under the regulation of the
war industries board, and the distri-
button by the department of agricul-
ture of these profits directly to the
| growers upon whose wool fine profits
were made wherever the identity of the
wool can he traced.
Permits Issued to Wool Dealers.
| The war industries board issued per-
mits to about $500 Country" dealers
authorizing them to buy wool directly
from the grower. Permits were also
| issued to 10 distributing center
dealers who had facilities for handling
wool in large quantities and most of
whom were located on the eastern sea-
board near the centers Of wool manu-
facture These larger dealers were re-
qaired to handle wool on consignment
from either growers or country dealers
and were also permitted to buy from
country dealers direct, or from growers
| through their agents.
Blank forms calling for detailed
accounting have been sent by the de
partment to both classes of dealers
Reports have been received from about
5000 of the country dealers and about
one-half of the dealers in distributing
centers. The taking over of the WOO
by the war department was completed
so recently that many of the larger
dealers have been unable to prepare
their reports at an earlier date. The
auditing Of these reports is proceeding
as rapidly as 1t can be done with the
limited force available for assignment
to this work. the department says.

FOCH TURNS SCREWS
PINCHING GERMANS
ArmistiCe Continued But Terms
Are No Less Exhaustive to Hun

Paris, Jan. 1.-THE agreement for
the renewal of the German armistice
signed by Marshal Foch, Admiral
Browning and the German armistice
comm ssioners Thursday provided for
the renewal of the arlnistice from
time to time after the month for
which the extension runs, until the
conclusion of peace, subject to the
approval of the Allied governments.
The principal terms of the renewal
are substantially as has been already
reported. In addition there is
clause by which the Allied command
reserves the right to occupy that part
of Strasbourg defenses comprised by
the forts on the eastern bank of the
Rhine and a strip of territory from
three to six miles beyond. Other
clauses provide for the substitution for
supplem entary railroad material, fixed
at 500 locomotives and 1000 cars by
the protocol of December II, by large
quantities of industrial and agricul-
tural implements, and give control of
Russian prisoners in Germany to AL
lied and associated delegates for re-
patriatfon. German headquarters at
Berlin will act in collaboration with
the Allied and associated relief or
CARNATIONS in this phase of the work.
The naval clauses provide that all
submarines must be turned over in
Guiding all submarine cruisers, mine
layers, sweepers, salvage ships and
floating docks for submarines. They
also stipulate that the building of all
submarines must cease and those on
the stocks must be dismantled or de-
stroyed under Allied supervision.
Germany undertakes to turn over
all Allied ships still detained in Ger
man ports. The clause providing that
Germany shall place her mercantile
marine at the disposal of the Allies in
return for food supplies says that the
agreement in no way affects the final
disposal Of those ships.

BATTLESHIPS MAY
Be NEEDED MORE
Admiral Mayo DiSapproVes Using
Them as Transport Boats

Philadelphia, Jan. 1S.--AdIniral
Henry r. Mayo, commander of tho
American Atlantic Fleet throughout
it's active service in war, speaking last
night before the 14th annual Poor
Richard club Franklin Day banquet,
battleships into transports to bring
men back from France.
"Armistice does not spell peace" he
declared. IF this great war ends
without difficulties following it will be
different from any other war and we
may need our battleships at any time.
The idea that the only thing to do
now is to get the boys back quick is
all wrong.
The matter is settled now, and we
must leave the direction of these mat
ters to wiser heads than mine, but
this making of the battleships over
into transports 1 very much regret.
IF you knew how great a task it is
to get a battleship prepared for war
and to train and equip a crew, you
would know how terrible q blow it is
to the Navy to have two-thirds Of the
crews taken off the ships and have
them torn apart and sent to trans
porting soldiers
The admiral paid high tribute to the
men who stayed at home and trained
the men who went into service.
When war began, Admiral Mayo
said, the Navy, as whole, was not
ready for war.
I'VE were not ready because we had
not had the money to be ready" he
said. I'VE did not have enough ships,
we did not have enough men. To get
ready for war, we had to multiply our
personnel nearly ten-fold, from 60, 900
to nearly a half-million ] think we
all agree now that had America spent
a few millions before the war for pre-
paredness she would not have had to
spend many billions in war, and had
she spent a few hundred millions
there would not have been any war"

fact that the Y NJ. c. A. purchasing
agents paid cash for these gift con
signme nts, which naturally shows that
they were acting in good faith, and
thought they were purchasing regular

Here's a case and the documents
to support 1T. Last fall w. f. Stewart
Acting Divisional Secretary, purchased
a certain brand OF cigarettes 16' from
the Third Division Sales Commissary,
L. S. A. On opening these it was
found that some cartons contained a.
postcard inside addressed by an indi-
vidua1 or firm in the States indicating
that the particular carton was a gift
and apparently intended for free dis
tribution. The cases containing these
cigarettes bore no marks to indicate
the nature of the contents. Mr.. Stew
art reported the matter to the Third
Division Sales Com missary and to the
Y. NJ. c. A. of the Fifth Region. In
response to this report Mr.. Stewart
received the following letter:
From c. O. Sales Commissary Unit
No. 4, A. P. O., TAO A. E. F. To Y.

in case lots before this was discovered,
there being no marks on the cases to
indicate that this was gift tobacco.
This matter has been taken up by this

cigarettes will be replaced.

I'm another instance, lot of cigar
cites were sent overseas by local

officer On arrival at Brest according
to custom, the ~ purchasing agent
came aboard to buy up any supplies
the executive officer had left over after
the needs of the men in transit were
supplied. Through the oversight of
someone, the remainder of the gift
cigarettes was included in the lot pur-
chased by the ~ man, and for which
he paid hard cash on the usual basis
of cost price. Then they were dis
tributed to the huts and in the rush
that followed the incoming Of a new
supply of smokes, it was some little
time before the little gift cards were
discovered inside the boxes. But
when they did come to light, Secretary
Harlow, to make sure that the bounti-
full intentions of the good ladies of
Brooklyn did not go astray, gave out
Of his stock more than three times as
many Cigarettes as he estimated had

Treaty Taken Up
BY French Senate
Commission Report Urges
Quick Ratification, but
" ants Better Safeguards

PARIS, Oct. 1.-THE Senate met this
afternoon to begin cons Iteration Of
the treaty Of peace.
Leon Bourgeois, chairman Of the
peace commission of the Senate. deliv-
cred the report Of the commission on
the treaty to the senators this morn
ing. The report calls for Immediate
and unanimous ratification of the
treaty. 1t states that the question at
issue is not to compare advantages
which other Allied nations receive
from the treaty of peace with those
attained by France. but that the treaty
must be regarded from the point of
view Of its safeguards to French in
tcrests.
The report further argues that
France must ratify the treaty imme-
Giateiy IN order to assume Sc upon
the committee Of organization Of the
league Of nations, which has COM
menced its work III LONDON.
Nj. Bourgeois holds that the treaty
as drafted II consistent with right and
justice. and that France obtains
through it the political and moral sat
isfactlon required by her sacrifices. The
country, it is declared, can find in the
temporary economic regulations effec-
tive means for economic recovery.

cial guarantees she still lacks The

"There is always a certain type of
men who safely place themselves on
the very outskirts of fight while the
fight is going on, who observe appar
ent.y how it is going, and after it is
over they Immediately take the centre
of the stage and become exceedingly

81 remember also, while this great
contest for civilization that the Sena-
tor from Nebraska speaks of was be-
ing waged, when one of the nations
allied in the struggle against Ger
many abandoned the fight, made peace
with Germany and deserted its allies.
those who are not advocating continued
animosity toward Germany, who are
launching their philippics against pro

that we should make peace with Ger

stated were the terms which appealed

Senator Hitchcock in his reply as
serted that ''it was | who conducted
the fight here in the Senate for the
resolution for armed neutrality' and
that he conducted through to its pas
sage the resolution declaring war on
Germany. He declared Senator Poin-
dexter had no ground for charging
that Mr. Hitchcock did not support the
war to his utmost powers"
