president of the American Federation of
Labor, for aid
Nearly 25.0O0 telegraph employees were
on strike, Mr.. Konenkamp said, but Mr..
Burleson had made one policy for the
telephone employees and refused to grant
the telegraph operators the same bene-
fits.
''Mr. Burleson has changed his policy
as to the telephone companies he said.
I'VE have been asking for the same
things, but he hasn't granted them. Such

Their Mandates.
Official Summary Of
Germany's Reply to
Peace Proposals Shows
General Opposition.

Paris, June Is. (By The Asso-
ciated Pressl-Germany is to be
allowed an army of 100000 men for
three years. This is one of the
changes in the peace terms which
has been zealousiy kept secret.
The reason given for this doub-
ling of the previous number of ef-
fectives is the impossIhIity of ad-
justing the armies of Austria, Po-
land, Czecho- -Slovakia and other new
states proportionately to the prev
iously arranged 100000 men for
Germany.
A general reduction of armaments
is to be negotiated Immediately.
Germany's admission to the league
of nations is fixed for .'the near fu-
ture." Her admission will enable
Germany to bring up for discussion
her economic propositions.
Germany will be given four months
to submit to the allies proposals
dealing with her total Indebtedness
thru reparations and methods for
payment thereof. She may propose
merchandise and Ianor.
The allies are to reply within two
menths.
A plebtscite for upper Silesia will
be taken within six to I8 months. A
clause deals with the protection by
the league of nations of German
minorities inhahiting the districts
taken from Germany. Another deals
with the inter-aIifed civil commits
sion which will administer the left
bank of the Rhine occupied by the
allied troops. to which the existing
military commission will be subordi-
mated.

Does the Bolshevik government really
represent the will Of majority of Rus
sia's millions and will this government
continue?
These are two questions that the
whole world is asking and that no one
can answer unless he hazard guess
Today, within the borders of soviet

the comforts of life that they have been

Army and Party Anchors.
Few are speaking good words for the
communist party and it's government,
but in the face of all this internal and
world opposition it stays on and on. The
tightly organized Red army and the
closely knit fraternal party organization
are physical explanations for this, but
there is something deeper than these two
very formidable and visible things. This
is the great underlying spirit of unrest
radicaism that has sunk itself deep
This Russian moujik is strange
creature and when he threw himself into
the revolution he threw all of himself in.
The peasant and workmen soldiers want
ing peace simply put their rifles on their
shoulders and went home. The peasant,
chatting under. generations of oppression,
killed off his landlords, burned great
houses and took the land. The city
workmen kicked out the old factory
bosses and took over shops for them
selves Millions of strong, simple, ig
norant people, suddenly finding all the
old ties cut, ran amuck and the loot of
the nation was the result.
On Band Wagon In Pinch.
The bolsheviki being politicians above
everything else, had their ears to the
ground and when they heard the tramp
of moujik mobs, they hustled out and
climbed on the band wagon like profess

days of Rome.
Strange as it may sound, these COM
munists have more than once curbed
the sweeping tide of extreme wildness
and made this unrest stay in somewhat

Paris, June 15.-Secretary Daniels
statement before the house naval COM
mittee. that the administration had aban-
doned its naval building program. created
something akin to a sensation among
most of those connected with the Ameri-
can peace mission.
Daniels announcement was complete
surprise. even to the expert naval adj
visers of our peace delegation, who have
been centending that, as it would be in-
consistent with the principles of the
league of nations to permit any one pow
er to have a fleet stronger than the COM
bined navies of the world, it was neces-
sary that the United States have a navy
equal to that of the greatest naval power.
OF course. the greatest naval power is
Great Britain.
Result of Quiet Deals.
Careful inquiry indicates the aban-
donment Of our naval construction pro-
gram announced by Daniels is the result
of quiet negotiations going on in Paris
for several months.
President Wilson entrusted Colonel
House with the conduct of these nego-
tiations which have been so secret that
it is doubtful if more than two or three
American officials beyond the president
ndsColonei House knew they were under
way. apPHfeHtiS, tue utmost care was
exercised to prevent the naval advisers
of the American peace commission from
knowing what was going on. No state
ment MS to the character of the nepotia-
items or the conclusion reached is OBJ

Some Understanding Likely.
1t is inferred, however, from the
guarded answers given here to questions
based on Daniels. communications to the
naval committee, that some understand
ing has been reached with the British
government with respect to the size of
naval ornaments.
One Interpretation of these under
standings is that the two great English
speaking nations have agreed to limit
their naval programs, but there is nc
