London, April A memorial serv-
ice for Americans who fell during the
was was held at Westminster Abbey
today under the auspices of the Eng
disappearing union. The service was
attended by Americans including de-
tachments from the army and navy.
The service opened with the hymn,
"Oh Cod Our Help in Ages Past,

Right Rev II. E. Ryle, dean of West

Let us unite in thanking God for
those. our brothers of the great
American republic, who have laid
down their lives in sacred and right

by an unwritten. but inviolable, cove

of the hopes of the world for future
peace.
For their sakes we raise this day

abbey which enshrines the illustrious
dust of English speaking peoples. Let
us render humble and joyful praise
to Almighty God that in response to
the clarion call of freedom and JUS

not divided. nor have the brothers of
America laid down their lives in vain.

Paris, April 4,-Premier Lloyd
George of Great Britain, in state
ment to the Petit Parlsien today, de-
MED the report, generally prevalent,
that he is an obstinate opponent of
the guarantees asked by France
against a renewed attack by Ger
many.
"Dissansions? the premier asked.
do you seriously think they can ever
exist between our two countries?
There has been some discussions
but is it not from sincere discussion
that a final agreement must emerge
between France and England? Our
understanding has remained complete
and absolute. Englishmen did not
come to fight by the side of the
French to give your country merely
relative security during a limited per-
'iod. No, they mean France to have
absolute security in the future.
"You know what sacrifices Eng
land has made and you know well
that England does not regret them
She is ready to make fresh ones if 1t
becomes necessary to guarantee the
peace and independence of France

the wild beast must he mastered
1T is mastered at present, but II
one day 1t raises it's head ready 10

by France and England, united in

The interview was sought, says a
Havas Agency summary of it, be-

would oppose on the peace conference

sary to settle the knotty problems fire.
quently brought to the attention of
the conferees, Mr.. Lloyd George is
quoted as saying, the understanding
between the two nations remained
absolutely unimpaired
I'VE wish France to know that it
is the will of the British people that
France should have complete securi-
ties for the future" the British pre-
mer declared.
Even if it were fifty years hence,
the premier added, England would be
ready at that time again to make sac
rifices for the French if Germany
should let loose the scourge of war o.
France for the third time"

GOVERNMENT GIVES
BIG ORDER FOR LAMB

Chicago, April 4.-The government
is in the market for 3,730,000 pounds
of lamb. it was learned today at the
stockyards, the first time since the
government began making large war
time purchases that it has sought any
very considerable quantity of lamb or
mutton.
At present lamb is selling at virtual
ly the same high prices that beef and
pork are bringing The order would
keep the largest killing establishment
at the stockyards busy for fifteen
days. according to an official of the
National Wool Growers association,
who said the government had now rec
nized the food value of lamb and NUT
ton.

Archangel. Thursday. April (by
the Associated Press). Ma
rushevisky, commander of the Rus
sian anti -Bolshevik forces in northern
Russia, startled Archangel today with
an unusual proclamation intended to
call the bluff of Bolshev!k sympa
thizers in this territory. The general
offered them a choice of safe conduct
to the Bolshevik lines up to April 10
on written application, with the al
ternative of trial by military court If
found within the military zone after
April 10. The proclamation says in
part:
II consider it my duty to expel out
of the territory occupied by the army
all persons whose presence is unde-
sirable / consider that the Bolshe-
Wiki and their agents and all adher-
ents of soviet cause are such persons.
Such persons still living in the zone
entrusted to me will be expelled sys-
tematically, being sent to their be-
loved country of the peoples commits
saries, the soviet land where all their
ideals, such as soviet comradeship
and food and open theft, violence
and other Bolshevik things come
true"

Berlin, April 8 (via Copenhagen
mo further concessions to Germany
Such are the headlines over an of
fcial propaganda communique pub
lished in the Berlin National Gazette
tonight.
1t states that the situation is eX-
tremely grave. Negotiations may be
broken Off by which step the armis-
tce question would enter critical
stage"
Germanys attitude thus expressed
and the editorial tone of the whole
German press on the Danzg question
is paradoXcally, out of keeping with
her character as a conquered country,
The Journal correspondent, fresh from
the army of occupation gained the
strange, fiTst-day impression that un-
occupied Germany, far from consider
ing herself crushed and at the victors
mercy, is filled with amazing self-con-
fidence and is pressing for an imme-
diate showdown
Germanys attitude Is due partly tC
the widespread popular belief, which
has been skilfully fostered by home
propaganda, that the enemies are di'
vided on Danzig, as well as on other
armistice and peace questions, and
more particularly that America and
England are siding against France.
But the principal cause of this new
se'f,assurance and asSertiveness is the
blind belief that Germany holds the
winnig trump in the bogy of Bolshe-
vism, and that she considers this the
most favorable moment for playing 1t
after recent events i'm Hungary have
supposedly, alarmed the allies and
created nervousness among them
rather than to wait and balk only
when final, concrete peace terms are
presented.
Germany is not bluffing, Her firm
stand on Danzig is IN attempt to make
immediate capital out of the Budapest
revolution and the specter of Bolshe'
vsm, and it foreshadows Germany
certain reaction to every unacceptable
concrete peace term. If the fear thai
Germany will turn to Bolshevism OF
other considerations induce Marsha
Foch to back down on the DanZie
proposition. 1t is certain to be haileC
as Germany's first great armistice vic
tory. with the result that the samt
tactics will be intensively employed
hy Germany on every Subseqnen
peace question. There is no doubt thai
to her. the crisis of the armistice ha:
been reached.
OF greater importance is the ques
tion of what America and the allies
may do in the face of Germany's per
sistent opposition to the Danzig pro
rosnl and any future demands. The
feeling here Is that Germany hat
nothing more to lose and everythlnf
to gain by new depilomatic ultima
ium.

PRESIDENT ILL.,;
BREAK DOWN MAY
Be THREATENING
Has Given Up Usual Exercise
and for Once Is Content to.
Rest; Kept to Room and Per-
mitted Light Meals,

Paris, April 4, (by the Associated
Press. Until late today no specific
bulletin was issuel concerning the
condition of President Wilson. Were
it not that the president had been un
der a terrific strain and deprived of
his usual amount of exercise, his i'll
ness would be the cause of little wor
ry.
Since his return the presidents
work has been enormous and he has
been unable to secure more than an
occasional walk at odd intervals eth
er with Mrs. Wilson or Rear Admiral
Grayson. Golf has been dropped
from his schedule, and an automobile
ride now and then abour the city has
been the presidents only form of re-
creation, in addition to the short
walks.
Rear Admiral Grayson has been
constantly on the alert watching the
president for signs of a break down,
pesecially since the two days on board
ship when the president was slightly
ILL.,
Other physicians have not been
called in for consultation and up TO
midday Friday the services of no
trained nurses had been solicited. but
Mrs. Wilson has been always within
reach of her husband, assisting in the
care of him.
Rear Admiral Grayson is always
near. the president. His treatment
for the patient consists of the re-
quirement of absolute quiet and rest.
The presidents appetite today was
good, but at luncheon he was limited
to oyster soup and a light entree.
The American executive, however.
Is sick enough to make him not care
TO read. He appears to be quite con-
tent to rest and sleeps lightly from
time to time.
After the forenoon session of the
council today the members on depart
ing renewed their wishes for the
rapid recovery of President Wilson.
Albert Sends Regrets.
Paris April 4--King Albert of Bel
GUM, who met with the council of
four at its forenoon session, sent to
President Wilson. who is suffering
| from a cold, an official expression of
! regret at his indisposition. When the
king talked with the president yester-
| day the president appeared to be well.
| The president himself did not appear
| to feel warning of the approaching
! Illness. 1t was during the latter part
of his meeting with Premiers Gle
menceau and LLOYD George that the
cold developed. The presidents voice
began to grow husky enough to cause
comment from the premiers before
the adjournment of the conference.
| After o'clock the presidents con-
diton became such that he could
scarcely talk DR.. Grayson saw him
soon after the conference adjourned
and ordered him to bed
Members of the presidents house
hold, his friends and newspaper cor
respondents were advised of his con-
dition, but in the hope that nights
rest would bring definite improve
ment the correspondents were re-
quested not to make public what was
regarded as only slight indisposition.

HOW ULT|MATUM
REACHED B0CHES
NOW EXPLAINED
President Broke Diplomatic
UsageS by Sending Message
Direct Through Wireless to
German People,


New York, April 14.--The story of
how President Wilson broke diplomat
ic precedent on October 20. 1918. by
direct parley with the Germans. was
told here today by c. NJ. Ripley, a
wireless specialist of the General Elec-
trio company.
1t was exactly at noon on october
20, Mr.. Ripley said, when an opera
tor in the naval wireless station at
New Brunswick startled American and
the allied government wireless opera
tors with the call
FF."
Translated the call meant that IN
+ F." the New Brunswick station, was
calling "P o H." the German wireless
station at Nauen.
Visions of daring treachery on the
part. of some naval wireless operator
or equally daring German spy opera
tions, Mr.. Ripley imagines, fitting
through the minds of operators who
were not ION the inside" of President
Wilson's plan.
Almost Immediately there flashed
back fro mthe Nauen station the pat
ronizing comment:
"I our signals are line, Ola man.
Then the New Brunswick operator
began sending President Wilson's first
message to the German people
couched in plain, terse English. and
informing the mthat no peace nego-
tiations could be considered until vii.
liam Hohenzollern stepped down and
out.
From that time until the signing OF
the armstice. Mr.. Ripley said. the
president maintained direct wireless
communication with Germany, couch
ing all his messages in plain English
which the allied governments could
pick up by wireless and giving th'
texts to the American public as soor
as the messages had been sent.
