CRITICIZE WILSON.
French Newspaper Writers Think He
Made a Mistake.

Paris, April 24.-As to the gravity Of
the peace conference crisis there are no
two opinions in France to-day. There is
agreement, also, that no stone must be
left unturned to find solution.
As TO the causes, views differ widely
The more conservative opinion, as repre-
sented by organs which include the Fl
garo, is inclined to deplore President
Wilson's action in making his statement
public, as likely to do more harm than
good.
Its evident object" the Figaro says,
'is to transfer to the market place nego.
tiations and discussion much better car
ried on in calm and privacy. What was
only defense might thus be trans
formed into a quarrel

conference circles that final decisions have
not yet been reached on a number of
secondary questions, which, though OF
minor Importance, must be included in
the document. Among these questions
are the details relative to the disposition
of the German cables, some aspects as to
reparations, the agreement of the organ
ization commission to sit after the con-
clusion of peace to supervise the collec-
tion of reparations, and the dates when
the later installments of the indemnity
from Germany shall be paid.

The Barre banks did fairly good
business in the sale of Victory bonds
yesterday, but fell far short of the aver
age for the first two days of the cam

brace if the city's quota is to be reached
in the time allotted for the drive. This
slow down Of the buying activity is in
marked contrast to the continued rush
in aH'parts of the country to secure the
most attractive U. S, government Sc
curity ever offered, with an interest rate
of Az per cent and guaranteed by the

is need for Barre people to wake up to

probable, each will be brought up for a
vote. The first proposition in order will
be the Wheeler resolution, sponsored by
the employers group, recognizing the
right to collective bargaining by employees,
but reserving to the employer the right
to deal or not to deal with men or
groups OF men who are not his employees
and chosen by and from among them :"
The labor delegates take the stand that
such resolution would mean nothing if
adopted, since it would give the employ
ers unrestricted choice of representatives
to deal with workmen on industrial is
sues while limiting the employees to their
own ranks, thus eliminating the officials
of the national and subordinate labor
organizations, in many cases the best quail
lhed representatives of the unions. All
elements of the conference are agreed that
| the labor wing will defeat the Wheeler
| measure If it comes to a vote
| Should this measure be defeated or
withdrawn the Russell Endicott measure
would be next in order. This resolution
would pledge the conference to recognize
the right of the employees to bargain col
| lectively and to elect their representa-
tives without restriction. The employers
group has repeatedly voiced emphatic op
position to this proposal, which has the
support of the public and labor delegates
Since an adverse vote by single grouI
can defeat any resolution there is practi
cally no hope of the Russell Endicot
measure being adopted
Suggestions that the conference adop
new tactics and eliminate collective bar
gaining from consideration temporarily
while considering other issues, have me
decided opposition. Many of the confer
ences, including the labor delegates, be
lieve that the conference cannot sidesteI
this important issue, and that it must b
settled now if the conference is to ac
complish anything.

RUSH FOOD TO PETRoGRAD.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20-The first con

after the fall of Kronstadt and Petrograd
will be to rush in quantities of foodstuifs

The people of the former Russian cap.
ltal have been on short ratons for a long
time. Starvation has gripped the city for
months, thousands having persisted for
lack of food.
Petrograd has been visited by one cpl
demic after another, owing to the short
age of medical supplies and the over
crowding of hospitals or their use fol
other purposes by the Bolsheviki authori
ties there
The people are greatly in need OF cloth
ing and shoes, and in fact are short o
about all the necessities of life

been completed to this end and that car

city by General Yudenitch's White Rus

that the Bolsheviki viii lose a large POI

show that "a very large proportion OF
