NOT FACTOR
IN SOLDIERS RETURN
TRANSFORMATION Facilities and Exl'
pencies of the Service Govern,
War Department Announces.

TRANSPORTATION facilities and ext
gencies of the service, and not the
question of expense, are the de-
ter,nining factors in the return TO
the United States of officers and en-
listed men in the American expe-
ditionary forces, according to officials
at. the War Department. That state
ment of the policy was made in am
swer to an inquiry if d member Of the
overseas Army would not improve his
CHARGES of coming home if he of
fered to defray personally the ex-
pennies of his transportation.
An application of that kind would
not be considered at all. it was stated,
as such a course would simply oper-
ate in favor of men who would not
mind the expenditure to the prejudice
of others who could i'll afford the out
lay.
II was explained at the department
that the overseas soldiers are return
ing home on schedules prepared by
Gen. Pershing and his assistants ac-
ice. and that the department had
neyer fnterceded in behalf Of the
ea,ly return or discharge of indi-
yiduaf officers or men. except in spe-
cial cases of family or business dis
tress which might be alleviates by
the presence OF the absent memb ber,
Even in such cases only the facts IN
the case were cabled to Gen Persh-
ing and action left to his discretion.
Under no circumstances, ii was stated.

to the United States, and is a close
friend of Col. House. The Japanese

On the whole. the President man
aged rather well with the European
statesmen. and, while they did not al

to say Yes or NO and his flexible
attitude on questions wherein he be-

modify her attitude to meet the needs
of Europe.
Because Mr.. Wilson doesn't under
stand French or Italian and because
most of the other delegates do not
speak English with fluency the Pres

PRESIDENT WINS

LIKE HIS DIRECT MANNER
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

fThis is the second of a series of
articles by Mr.. Lawrence on his re-
turn from the peace conference at
Paris, recording his Impressions OF
how President Wilson and the states
men of Europe seemed to get along
with one another)
President Wilson came to Europe
after more than a years corre-
spondence by cable through the indi-
rect channels Of ambassadors and spe
cial representative with the leading
statesmen of Europe-and the truth
is the European premiers had their
misgivingS about him and he had his
own doubts about them. They had
out the personal equation-and the
President realized that he, too, had
not the most accurate knowledge of
what constituted the real personality
Of each of these statesmen.
There was an inevitable period of
getting acquainted. Many observers
think it was the most critical month
of the peace conference, for during
that time the President was seeing
Europe at first hand and confirming
his own Impression that the idealism
he had been preaching at 5000 miles
range wasn't shared by some of our
allied friends-for the sake of allied
unity they hadn't made any public
expression of their differences while
the war was on. When the war end
ed they would have preferred to con-
tinue silent about these differences
and try to reach an agreement in Sc
cret conclave.

His Stand as to Indemnity.

AS for the indemnity, the President S
representatives in France had made il
clear before his arrival-and he him
sef stated II even more positively in
his first conference.-the the indem-
nifty levied on Germany should be
just as large as the actual cost of the
destruction and that undoubtedly the
bill would be much larger than any-
thing Germany could ever pay. In
other words. the indemnity question
quickly resolved itself into prob
lem of mathematics and statistics
how much can be extracted from Ger
many and still keep intact her social
and industrial structure?
Mr.. Wilson'S difficulties with the
French methods of diplomacy were
known to correspondents generally.
Certainly II was surprise to mos. Of
the men who went to Paris to write
about the conference TO find that
France, with which they had expecte ed
the United States 10 be in intimate
and friendly contact, was more often
apart than in agreement with us on
questions involved in the settlement.
/ am inclined to believe that the
President and NJ. Ciemenceau will get
along better on the second visit of
Mr. Wilson to France.
OF Premier Orlando much might be
written. He is a very likable man.
The President got along spIendidly
with him, and he. in turn. always
| seemed to carry away a good impres-
sion OF Mr. wilson. But the power
behind the throne in Italy is Baron
sonnino, the foreign minister. 1t is
Sonnino with whom both British and
Americans frequently get out of pa
thence, referring TO him as the
Machiavelli of Europe
There were one or two little incl
dents on the Wilson journey to Italy
which indicated that Baron Sonnine
wasn't very anxious to have the ItaI-
| ian people get too close to President
Wilson. But the pressure Of the peo-
pie was Irresistible and one of the

Reason for Secret Conference.

! Objection to an open peace confer
premisrs, for example, on the ground
that differences might be accumulated
and lead to serious friction between
peoples. There was much truth in
what he said. If it Had been known,
for example, that certain French Of
fetal at one of the talks with Presi-
dent Wilson practically suggested
that America should pay proportion
ate share of the cost of the war and
| that this should include the two years
when the United States was neutral
resentment over the suggestion might
have created in America lukewarm
feeling toward further parleying with
European governments about world
organization and encouraged those in
the United States who we're advoeat-
Ing return to a policy of aloofness
from European entanglements.
The President came to Europe with
hxe4 notions of what he might expect
from European statesfneu--he had fol-
lowed their course intimately through
out the war-but he made up his mind
that he would get along with them. that
he would study each man and make
| himself as agreeable and congenial as
he possibly could
During the month of December there
was, however, a coelness between the
President and Premier Lloyd George
The latter had two engagements in
Paris, but cancelled them, giving as his
excuse domestic problems Mr.. Wilson
was determined that he wouldn't talk
peace conference problems anywhere
but in Paris. 1t was said Mr.. Lloyd
George wouldn't go to Mr.. Wilson first

about special interviews and gave the
London Times aii exclusive interview,
saying many nice things about England
and the British people. Conferences

sitting in Paris and Lendon, each wait

himself that many of the things which
