WILSON DISCUSSES
 FRENCH AND BRITISH VIEWS OF LEAGUE
Aims to Get Further Ahead in Work of Reconciling Different Projects With
 Own Ideas
By Associated Press

Paris. January 19.-Callers at the Paris White House today were Senator Leon Bourgeois, the league of nations specialist on the French peace delega- tion; Lord Robert Cecil, who occupies a similar post for the British, and Gen. Jan Christian Shuts. the South African leader, who also has plan for so- ciety of nations.
 President Wilson thus had an oppor- tunity to discuss the French and Brit ish viewpoints on this question, and to get further ahead with the work of reconciling the different projects with his own ideas.
 The plans for a league of nations have been reduced to very definite form. The general indications are that the statesmen of the principal nations |are steadily drowing together on a
 structure which will have the support of all, the informal discussions having
 brought the community of ideas to a
 point where it may reasonably be ex- pected soon to appear on paper.
 It is understood that the general
 plan which is now most approved in substance by all the parties concerned rejects the theory of the super sover-
 eighty of an internal police force. It also contemplates the working out, as
 the development of the league pro- gresses, of the most deicate question of all-dsarmament-w particu-
 larly affects the British navy. The same principle, it is proposed, shall ap- ply to the other nations associated in the war against Germany.
 This idea is founded on the argu- ment that no nation Mould dispose of instruments by which it expects to de- fend itself until it has been demon strated that the forces proposed as a substitute will be efficient.
 In the opinion of international law actual settlement by the peace confer ence at this sitting at least many ques- tions on which complete agreement might not be expected now, but upon which full accord seems probable as the development of the plans for a league of nations advance.
 Such a pan will delegate to various , commissions and committees detailed problems which shah De reported with recommen endations to the league itself I The probability of such a plan being adopted justifies previous forecasts I that the principal accomplishments of ! the peace conference as 1t now sits in Paris will be agreement on broad gen. 1 eral principles, leaving the details to | be applied in accord herewith and the making of a preiimnaly restre winch will return the world at the earliest moment possible to it's normal status.

 Berlin, Saturday,, dnnrnry lS.--The election campaign hns been worked out in an energetic manner. measured by German standards. The majority socialists have q certain advantage in their monopoly of all the public buiid- ingS, railway stations and the like for election posters. They are even having their election literature printed in the government printing office and dis tributed by government officials. sol diers in automobiles and even by air- planes.
 The independent ticket in Berlin is headed by Herr Eichborn, former chief of police, and for whom the police are still searching.
 The bOurgeOise leaders generally are confident tbnt they will obtain n safe majority. The votes of the women are expected especially to strengthen the Christian peoples party. as the cicr- ical party is now known.
 Although state of siege haS not been formally declared, situation amounting virtually to q state of siege exists in Berlin. The government has taken all military measures needed to fully protect the voters and safeguard the elections.
 If any of the 800 polling places in Berlin are compelled to close re- suit of interference. it is planned to repeat the election eight days hence under reinforced military protection. As the system of proportional election has been adopted. the counting of the ballots will occupy nearly a week.
 Alsace-LOrraine will not partici- pate, hut elections in German territory in POsen now occupied by Poles will he held if necessary, under the protection of troops.
