MAY NAME ANOTHER
FOR COL. HOUSES PLACE
IN THE PEACE COUNCIL
His Poor Health Revives Specula-
ton About Baker, Taft
and Root.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2l.-The early
return Of President Wilson from Eu-
rope, with the fact that Col Houses
health continues poor. has revived
speculation that the President may
appoint at least one more American
delegate 10 the Peace Conference.
Former President Taft's support OF
the League OF Nations leads some to
believe that he may be named, while
Elihu Roots trip to Russia, giving
him a personal insight into conditions
there, and his diplomatic prestige
lead many to believe his selection
would be a logical one IL the Presi-
dent should determine to designate
another Republican. Secretary of Wai
Baker also is favorably mentioned.

SENATORS ASSA|L
FOOD RELIEF PLAN;
DENOUNCE HOOVER
P6nroSe, Johnson and Others
Demand Light on Where
SlOO,OOO,OOO Is to Go.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2l.--Passage
OF the slOO.OOOOOO food appropriation
bill. asked by President Wilson. was
seriously menaced to-day in the SEN
ate. Great hostility 10 the measure
crystallizcd in "A series OF vehement
speeches in which Senators denounc-
ed Herber, Hoover. who supposedly
will have charge Of feeding hungry
Europeans with thc money: assailed
Congress for submitting further 10
push button and rubber stamp"
legislation: threatened an investiga-
tion later of the way in which .he
money is spent. and warned that un-
less more attention is paid to the needs
OF returning American soldiers, an
archy will be rampant and breadlines
common.
RebuttinG these charges and bore
bodings. Senator Hollis, New Hamp-
shire. charged an attempt TO humili-
ate President Wilson and said op-
ponents of the Administration are
conducting poison gas attack on the
entire war record OF the Democrats.
Senator Pcnrose declared that PITTS
burgh soldiers were going to demand
to know why they were sent over the
top practically without rifles. "bc-
cause they never had any practice
with rifles"
senator Johnson, California, said l.
was high time that what he called the
old push button. rubber stamp me IL
uds of legislation should stop. He
said that his sympathy for the POO.
of Europe who were TO be fed by the
hundred million dollar fund ceased
when he heard that part Of the fund
was TO be used as Senator Gore
charged, in stabilizlns pork prices in
this country to save American
packers from loss.
Johnson called attention to riots
Of unemployed former American SOL
dicrs in Boston. lie declared that
soldiers appeared among !. w. w
rioters in Seattle because they had
no jobs.
This cloud OF unemployment which
now may be no larger than n mans

IN Washington discussing with Presi-

Senator Gronna referred to tcsti-
mony Of Thomas T.. Logan, before
the Agricultural Committee. who
stated that he sat in conference with
the Allies on the food situation and
that it was intended to feed many
countries.
Thomas +. Logan. Washington om-

tee earlier In the day that he informed
his employers OF the probable appoint
mcnt Of Hoover as Food Administrator
three days before it was announced but
that he obtained such information
through intimacy with public anars
and not through confidential relations
with Executive officials.
MIR. Logan said he made suggestions
TO Mr.. Hurley for speeches the latter

ex-Premier Lvon and Boris Bakhme-
tieff and other Ambassadors OF the
Kerensky Government are among the
prominent emissaries to the confer
ence. But thus far no Russian Gov
eminent has been recognized.
Authentic information received here
concerning recent developments in
Russia indicates that the strength and
prestige of the Bolshevik Government
at home have weakened somewhat in
the last few months. although Premier
Lenine and his associates have sue
ceodcd in strengthening their armies
and gaining considerable military sue
cess in Western Russia.
Premier Lenine, apprehensive OF po-
litiCal developments and the possib' l.
ity OF a vigorous Allied Intervention,
Is reported to have proposed TO tle
Executive Committee OF the Soviet
Congress that the Bolsheviki surren-
der. Trotzky, Karl Radek and For
eign Minister Chicherin opposed the
proposal vigorously. but 1t was de-
feated by n majority OF only twelve
votes out OF 200 cast,
The prospect OF foreign interven.
ton, however, II is said, has brought
to the Bolsheviki support from GER
tain elements which dislike intervcn-
ton as such, and who fear that inter
vention might result in counter
revolution and the restoration OF the
monarchy. The Bolshevik army is
estimated to number 100000 men II
is said TO be well equipped and under
complete control OF its leaders. Th,
high pay offered by the Bolsheviki
who also control the food supplies, ha
enabled the leaders to maintain dis
cipline and to attract recruits.
II is believed here that no revolt
by the unarrned masses OF Northern
and Northwestern Russia will have
much chance OF success while the
Bolsheviki maintain control OF their
army.

j. s. DELEGATION
INCLINED TO LET
FOE GET SUPPLIES
Would Not Lift Blockade,
Except for FoodStuffS and
Few Other Products.

PARIS. Jan. 2i ASSOCIATED Press).
Owing to pressure OF more urgent
problems before delegates TO the
Peace Congress. various economic
delegations are studying, each for
itself. the blockade and kindred
problems. 1t is probable they will
inaugurato joint discussion during
the coming week.
The American viewpoint contem-
plates a certain relaxation of the
earlier "watertight" blockade, which
would allow the entry of foodstuffs'
lubricants and other materials into
enemy countries. This, 1t Is held,
would permit the restoration OF dis
tributing systems, flour mills and
other agencies involved IN the prep
aration OF food supplies. The block
adc. however, would otherwise be as
rlgidly enforced as ever because OF
its value as a weapon TO force the
enemy 10 accept the peace terms that
will DO presented.
The relaxation OF the blockade as
regards foodstuffs is already eflec-
i've in "A portion OF the former Hans
burg domains. Food Is being sen.
into Vienna as well as to 'liberatol
regions" and will be supplied to Ger
many under the terms OF the armis-
tice extension agre, lent signed al

American experts are said to be.
