Claim at Meet-Dry
Act Opposed.

St. Louis, Mo, May 9.-Feeling
between the national guard and
! the regular army was brought to
the front at the second days ses-
sion of the national caucus of the
American legion, composed of men
and women who were in the mill
tary or naval service of the gov
ernment during the war.
Major Hamilton Fish of New
York presented a resolution urging
that congress place the national
guard and the regular army on
an equal footing and charges were
freely made that national guard
officers in France had been dis
eliminated against in favor of reg
ulars. In addition efforts were
made by various delegates to re-
strict the personnel of the legion
to men not in the regular army.
Major Fish's resolution was the
outcome of half a dozen drawn up
by different state delegations on
the same subject. Some were
much more drastic, urging con-
gressional investigation of the as
signment of officers in the Amer
others simply requested that the
convention take some action in the
matter of alleged discrimination
against the national guard.
Oppose Prohibition.
Prohibition and employment
were among other questions
brought up. Several resolution
concerning prohibition were pre-
sented TO the resolutions committee

the case of the national guard ana

enbodying in one for presentation.
The prohibition resolution finally
adopted by the committee urges
that the sale of beer and lighJ
wines be continued until the mem
bCrs of the American expedition
ary force can voice their opinion
in the matter.
The prohibition question was
brought up by Joseph Healv. son
OF Tim Healy. a prominent labor
leader of New YORK His resOlu-
ton charged that certain forces
in winning the war had taken
advantage of the absence of the
country's sons who were fighting
for democracy
The final resolution placed be-

less drastic in it's wording than Mr..
Healys.

one of the German delegation at

reference TO the peace terms

are quoted by the newspapers Yer

Herr Landsberg: THE cruel an
nouncements OF the press have
been exceeded. No verbal objections
can be handed over. We can 90
nothing but say yes or no. That Is
the essence OF a peace Of force.

ment is simply awful
Paris, May 9.-The German dele
gates to the peace congress are
considerably divided among them
selves in their views on the peace
terms submitted by the allied and
associated powers, il was intimated
today by a nigh British authority, a
Reuters statement says.
Berlin, Thursday, May S.-Con-
demnation of the peace terms is eX-
pressed by all newspapers here
those of the extreme right referring
to the conditions as "unfGlhllabie
and to the treaty as "an instrument
of robbery
The TagesZeitung says:
"One thing is certain; there can
be no question of this being a peace
of justice. What a peace Of justice
after the entente pattern and in &C
cordance with French desires looks
like, is shown by the conditions
which leave nothing OF Germany
but a torn and shattered territory" "
The Freiheit says that compared
with the policy Germany pursued Al
Brest-Litovsk. the entente peace
must be termed quite moderate
but is argued that the terms are IN
sharp contradiction with President
Wilson's fourteen points and tnat
if peace is to be built on this com
promise it assuredly can have no
firm and lasting foundation.
Peace OF AnnlhhatiOn.
"A peace Of annihilation" is the
caption used by Vorwaerts, which
says there is "a ruthless desire TO
lay Germany permanently low by
force If we sign this peace II is
because we are bound. by force but
in our hearts we resoiutely reject il.
Such a peace is an attempt to ex-
terminate a nation. not by force Of
arms but by means more brutal,

national executive committee of the
British Labor party tonight issued

some essential particulars Opposed

which still dominate European
states" the manifesto declared.
ANY permanent denial of Germany
OF an opportunity to become a man
datory under the League OF Nations
must cause jealousy and unrest
leading to further international dis
putes."
Other points criticized were the
failure to give Germany representa-
tion on the reparations commission
and the omission of provisions for
progressive limitation of arma-
ments by the other signatories 10
the treaty. The manifesto protest
ed against the permanent separa-

duce a capitalist and imperiaiist
