Peace Conference Of the
Allied Nations in Paris
Makes Progress in Meet
ing Problems of World.
(By Associated Press)

Paris, Feb. 4-President Wilson is
determined that nothing shall be per
mitted to obstruct the progress o,
the commission for the creation of g
society of nations, Of which he is
chairman. While less than two weeks
remain before the date set for his
return to Washington, still it is re.
garded as possible that the project
may be reported from the commits
sion and opportunity given the Peace
Conference in plenary session to rat
ify the plan.
Paris, Feb. "A wireless from
Moscow says the Russian Soviets will
take "all measures" to conclude an
agreement with the Entente, but they
complain that the Bolsheviki authori-
ties have received no formal invita-
tion to the Princess Islands confer
ence, the only message regarding it
being a message containing press
news of the wireless text, addressed
to "Berlin, Paris and everywhere"
Paris, Feb. Aeon Bourgeois
French proponent of the League of
Nations, has transmitted to the So
ciety of Nations Commission recon-
mendations regarding principles
which have been submitted to him
by the Inter-Allied Association fol-
the Promotion of a League of Ma
tions.
One urged the establishment by
the Society of Nations of an inter-
national commission on education.
The military recommendations in
cluded one to bind the associated
states to prohibit sales of arms or
munitions now possessed or to be
manufactured, to states outside the
league.
Another would prohibit the trade
or manufacture of munitions of war
by private establishments.
1t also recommended that the So
ciety Of Nations fix the number of
men to be enrolled in the military
and naval forces Of each member.
1t adds that the associated states
should impose upon the powers by
peace treaty limitation or ornaments
and control of their manufacture to
permit members of the society to re-
duce Immediately and substantially
their military establishments.
Even if the effort to secure final
action by the conference before the
presidents departure fails, it is con-
sidered by active sponsors that ulti-
mate success of the undertaking has
already been assured through adop-
tion by the full conference of a
declaration which solemnly binds the
delegates to the creation of a soci-
ETY. of nations with the primary OBJ
ject of averting further warfare. The
main effort of the promoters now is
to keep out all matter which is not
vital to the plan. 1t may prove that
one result will be that little more
than the skeleton of the project will
be disclosed.

Congressman VIM. kettner
Promises Large Shipment
of Seeds from Depart
ment of Agriculture.

Hundreds of packages Of govern
ment seed will reach The Press Of
flee within the next few days for
free distribution among residents of
the Valley. The gift of the shipment
Of seeds comes from Congressman
William d. Kettner.
Coincident with the arrival of this
news, Horticultural Commissioner F.
W. Waite announced that he had sew
eral hundred cuttings of evergreen
tamaracks, sent from Indio, for free
distribution. The cuttings were orig
inally sent by friend for planting
on the commissioners own ranch.
However, the shipment was too
liberal for this purpose, and Mr..
Waite desires that those wanting the
cuttings shall communicate with him
at his office.
Congressman Kettner writes that
he has directed the Secretary of Ag-
riculture to send large supply of
seed to The Press for distribution in
the most convenient manner. Those
calling or writing to this office will
obtain a quantity of the seeds free
of charge.
