CANNOT EXIST HERE
William B. Wilson Says He Does
Not Fear Anarchy.
Secretary of Labor Declares American
People Can Make Progress
Without Force.

New York, May 14.-William B. Will
son, secretary of labor, has no fear
that Bolshevism will ever obtain a foot
hold in the United States. he said at
a luncheon of the United Waist League
of America.
MY reason for this belief" he de-
clared, lis that we are developed much
more, from the standpoint of democ-
racy, than any country in Europe. We
can make progress without force.
Force used for overthrowing autocracy
may be the highest form of patriotism,
but force used to dethrone democracy
Is treason to the masses. For two
years the Department of Labor, with
small force, has fought the philos-
ophy of the |. w. w. and Bolshevism :"
In investigating the disturbances in
the West at the beginning of the war,
Mr.. Wilson said the special mission
appointed by the President found the
I. w. W., which had almost gone out
Of existence, had suddenly become re-
juvenated and active
Mr.. Wilson believed, he said, that
even the radicals in the United States
would repudiate Bolshevism, which
quite falsely claimed to protect the
proletariat.
The Bolsheviki leaders consider
only themselves" declared Mr.. Will
son. Their only purpose is rule as
the czars and emperors of Europe have
done"

Omitted From Proposed Agree.
ment to Keep France Free
From Aggression.
FRENCH ARE AROUSED
People Are in No Mood to Listen to-
Protests From Germany Against
Peace Terms and Suggestions
for League of Nations.

Paris, May 14.-Considerable COM
ment has arisen over the fact that
italy is not included in the proposed
treaty between the United States,
Great Britain and France for mutual
action against Germany should Ger
many again become aggressive toward
France.
1t is said that Premier Orlando was
ready to bring Italy into the agree
ment and that he took part in some of
the early discussions, although the
plans were consummated about the
time of the high tension which re-
moved Premier Orlando from active
participation in the Council of Four.
Because of Italys membership in
the former triple alliance, it is held
in some French quarters, it was SER
ious omission not to include Italy in
the new Franco-American-B British en-
gagement.
France Sees German Bluff.
France is not in a mood to listen TO
Germany just now, The Journal Des
Debats says in concluding an article
on the manifestations against the peace
treaty by the German government and
the German press.
The president of Germany" the
editorial says, protests against the
peace terms and declares them .impos-
sible of acceptance. This attitude will
be lost on us. The Germans, as usual,
will yield only to force. Durir the
time allowed them to make up heir
minds, they will try to persuade as to
conclude peace upon such and such a
basis.
1T is comical, indeed, to see at a
time like this the Germans seriously
proposing to. us a version of the
league of nations and plans for the
reconstruction of Europe. They should
put them all back in the cabinet AT
Wilhelmstrasse."
Strasbourg Favorable.
Strasbourg, May IA. - Industrial,
commercial and political leaders in
Strasbourg and Alsace are favorably
impressed with the peace terms inso-
far as they concern the return of AL.
SAGE and Lorraine to France. Several
commercial leaders of Strasbourg dis.
agree with the economic clauses, es-
pecially with regard to Kehl, across
the Rhine from Strasbourg. They hold
that Strasbourg will be ruined as a
port unless Kehl is jointed to Stras
bourg for Is years and the French
are given the right to establish toll
bridge across the river.

President Sends Letter of Con-
graduation to H. P. Dawson
for His Success.
SEVERAL NATIONS JOIN
Wilson Declares Unity Of Purpose 10
Inspired by Same Idea That Moved
Formation of the Proposed
League of Nations.

Paris, May 14--President Wilson, in
letter written to III. p. Dawson, who
worked out the Red Cross plans, de-
clares the League of Red Cross socie-
ties of the world, formed to unite relief
efforts, is inspired by the same pur-
pose that moved the formation of the
league of nations. The letter reads:
Permit me to congratulate you and
your associates representing the Red
Cross societies of the United States,
Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan
upon the formation of League of
Red Cross societies designed to un1e
the Red Cross societies of the world
in active cooperation against the
miseries which arise from disease and
disaster. | know that formation of the
league marks the achievement of a
plan cherished by you for many
months, plan with which l had an
instructive sympathy when you broach-
ed 1t to me, because it promised de-
velopment of Red Cross usefulness and
because l. saw in 1t kindred purpose
to that which inspired us with the
icdSuc VI puipUSt W uTdW
all people into concerted action for the
welfare of the world.
Although the Red Cross league has
no formal affiliation with the league
of nations, it is so obviously conceived
in the spirit of the league that we in
corporated its purposes in an article
of the covenant. | know that both
your committee and the international
committee of the Red Cross purpose
an organized union as soon as the tenn
per of the world will permit.
Il wish all speed to that consum-
nation. both for the proportion of Red
Cross activity and the prompt at
tainment of the time when peace and
good will shall be written In mems
hearts as plainly as it is now being
written in their covenants.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
(Signed Woodrow Wilson"

German ENJOYS Reported to Have
Received Word From Ber-

F|UME SOLUTION NEAR
Brighter Prospects for Settlement OF
italian Problem as Time for Ar
rival of Austrian Delegation
Approaches.

Basie, May 14.-The Berlin cor
respondent of the National Zeitung
reports that Chancellor Philip
Scheidemann had informed jour.
nalists the German government
will order Its delegates not to sign
the peace terms in their present
form.
Paris, May 14.-Advices indicate
brighter prospects for solution of the
Italian problem, which is a pressing
one now that the peace conference is
on the eve of receiving the Austrian
delegates. Premier Vittorio Orlando
called on Colonel Z. Nj. House.
The Austrian delegation is on the
way, some members being due to reach
Paris within a few hours, with the
chief plenipotentiaries arriving but lit
tie later.
Although 1t is not believed probable
the Germans will refuse to sign the
treaty, the Entente forces are prepared
to advance into Germany IL the enemy
should reject the terms, 1t is said.
Teuton Opposition Continues.
The wave of opposition In Germany
to the signing of the treaty on the
terms presented shows no signs of sub
sidence. Both President Frederick
Ebert and Chancellor Philip Scheide-
mann have made statements denounc-
Ing the terms. Neither of them, how
ever, went so far as to state that Ger
many would not sign them.
In Chancellor Scheidemann's state
ment the possibility of a new govern
ment taking office in Germany was dis
cussed, but the chancellor declared IL
was doubtful whether the formation OF
government, (which would sign the
peace terms" would be satisfactory to
the Allies, the implication being that 1t
would be ultraradical in character.
Experts Examine Notes.
Experts of the Council of Four are
examining the notes sent by Count Won
Brockdorff- -Rantzau, head of the Ger
man mission, to Georges Clemenceau,
president of the peace conference, rela-
tive to the repatriation of prisoners
and the establishment of a new basis
for international labor legislation along
lines suggested by German experts.
A draft of the German plan for q
League of Nations has been handed to
the League of Nations commission Of
the peace conference.
Probable FIume Solution.
Thomas Nelson Page, American am
bassador to Italy, has submitted to
President Wilson compromise plan
by which Page believes the presidents
principles will be maintained and Italy
entirely satisfied as to Fiume.
Belief that Germany will sign the
treaty after she has exhausted every
subterfuge to ameliorate the terms,
continued to grow today despite state.
