Is Kissed by the Radicals

ROME, Dec. 1o.-Denuty Benteni.
Socialist, and Deputy Crispold;. CatAo-
lie, discussed in the Cham Der OF Depu-
ties yesterday King Victor Emmanuel's
speech from the throne. The former
denounced every part of the Kings ad-
dress. He declared the Socialist group
was in favor of republic. not because
Of their love of a republic, but in order
to insure tho triumph of socialism.
Deputy Crispoidi criticized the fail
ure of the King TO lay grester emphasis
on the development of eouca ton but
lauded the speech as a whole. He was
much heckled by the Socialists. who
objected to his compliments to the
King, saying his party had recognized
the Pope and NOT the King as their
head, always calling the latter
usurper.
When Deputy Crispoldi spoke favor
ably OF the league o. nations the So
cialists Kissed and shouted: "lt doesn't
exist! What VIC want is g society Of

Deputy Benteni declared: I'VE wish
o labor representation. Labor cannot
find expression in Parliament since the
Parliament is against US The war en-
phesized the responsibility Of consti-
tuted powers, even those powers cor
sidered Irresponsible. The oeech from

ians killed it With Indifference, urging
general Elections.
"Besides. thu throne speech has al

Prince Would Surrender
If Allies Freed Prisoners

MUNICH, Dec. 1O.--In a letter ad-
dressed to the president Of the Ba-
varian Red Cross, former Crown Prince
Rupprecht of Bavaria, who commanded
German armies in Belgium and France
during the war and who now Is in
Switzer land, offers to surrender himself
in response to the demand Of the En-
tente for the extradition of German
army leaders, provided that his action
will bring about the release Of German
prisoners held in France.
The former Crown Prince brands the
demand for extradition, in view of the
fact that "judee and prosecutor are
one," as "a mockery of every sense of
justice" He volunteers, however, that
the Entente insists upon the fulfill
ment of the extradition clause in the
peace treaty before the prisoners are
released that he will present himself
for eXtradltion.

'%OtAA ~ AHCWH%A0 VI kAlS - EVAVAkH ASS-
lations Committee, favor the declara-
ton Of policy rather than the ratiti-
cation of the proposed alliance.
The alliance treaty has been pend
ing in the Senate since last July, when
President Wilson transmitted it to
that body. together with the peace
treaty with Germany. It was side
tracked to give the peace treaty the
right Of way, but 1t was favored by
many Senator'S at the time as the bot
ter alternative to the league Of nations.
The announcement Of new foreign
policy, or "declaration Of European pol
icy,' was urged by Senator Knox last
June. On June 10 he introduced res
olution In the Senate which declared:
THAT it shall be the declared policy
Of our government, in order to meet
fully and fairly our obligations to our
selves and to the world, that, the free
dom and peace of Europe being again
tion of powers, the United States will
regard such q situation with grave con-
Germ as q menace to it's own peace and
freedom, will consult with other pow
ers affected with view to devising
means for the removal Of such menace,
and will, the necessity arising II the
future, carry out the same complete
accord and cooperation with our chief
belligerents for the defense Of civiliza-
tion"
The Knox proposal for declaration
of policy will be revived by the Repub-
lican Senator'S who are opposed to
"sntangling alliances" to take the
place Of the proposed alliance with
France, when the alliance treaty comes
up for consideration.
Senator Knox himself is preparing to
urge tho formulation Of such @ policy
when the alliance is brought up for
confederation, and he will lead the fight
for the declaration Of some such policy
as he proposed last juno.

Sentiment for Alliance With
France and Possibly Great
Britain, i'm Place of the
League, Gaining Support
No ''Entangling'' Pledges
Would Promise to
Lend Aid Only if Peace
of the World Is Menaced
Netp York Tribune
WGshfnotDn Bureau

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10,-Considera-
tion Of the treaty Of alliance under
which the United States would pledge
itself to go to the aid Of France in
case of an unprovokod attack upon
that country by the Germans, was post
poned to-day by the Foreign Relations
Committee OF the Senate. The meeting
Of the Republican National Committee
prevented more than a per3unctory
meeting Of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, as most Of the Republican Sem
ators attended the sessions of their
party council.
Senator Moses, Of New Hampshire,
who was to have brought up the pro-
posed alliance for discussion, was un-
able to attend the meeting Of the Sem
ate committee, which continued for
only few minutes without a quorum
being present. The only act of the
committee was to report joint reso-
luton appropriating 100000 to the
State Department for the administra-
tion of the passport regulations.
There Is strong disposition on the
part of the Republican leaders Of the
Senate to bring up the alliance treaty
turc. unless the Administration forces
in the Senate make some move toward
a compromise on reservations to the
peace treaty with Germany that might
secure the ratification Of that treaty.
French Treaty Up Wednesday
The French treaty will be discussed
at the next meeting of the Foreign
Relations Committee, Wednesday, Of
sentiment for an alliance with
France and possibly Great Britain also
to take the place of the proposed
league of nations in the event that the
treaty with Germany remains dead
IN the Senate is growing rapidly among
Republican Senators. They are pre-
pairing to extend to France and the
rest Of Europe an assurance that TIE
United States will fulfill the obliea-
tlons it assumed when it entered the
war against Germany, and that the
United States would go to the aid Of
France should that country again be
similarly threatened.
Many Republican Senator's, in case
vivcd. would go further than the al
lance treaty signed in Paris by Pres
ident Wilson, and instead Of pledging
his country to 60 to the aid of France
in the event of an invasion of France
BY Germany would promulgate q nev,
foreign policy. They would declare it
to be the policy Of the United States
that whenever the peace of the world
is threatened this country shall be in
terested and shall unite with other
powers to remove the menace to peace
and freedom.

Persists in View That De-
livery of 400, 900 Tons of
Dock Material to Allies
Is an Unacceptable Claim
Press Urges Moderation
Entente Note Generally
Held To Be Conciliatory
and Negotiation Possible

BASEL, Decs s1O.-The German gov
ernment, according to Berlin advices,
persists in its point of view that the
delivery Of 100000 tons of port ma
terial is an unacceptable claim. Ger
many's answer to the Allied note, it Is
expected, will be forwarded from Ber-
lin tomorrow.
BERLIN, Dec 10.--"The Entente
notes are more conciliatory in tone
than has been previously assumed"
says the "volks 1eitung" they con-
tain tangible concessions. The final
clause of the protocol, proV.ding that
the Entente could at any time take
military action against Germany, has
been dropped. Negotiations also can
take place regarding certain modifica-
tions III the protocol concerning the
surrender of drydocks."
Difficult, Says "Vorwaerts"
sion is terribly grave and difficult. An
attempt must be made to overcome our
opponents obstinacy. The govern
ment cannot silently sign the protoco!
as demanded, unless 1t wants to sur
render the German people to the In
calculable vengeful greed Of capital
lists drunk with victory"
The "Morgen Post" sees in the
Scapa Flow note a semblance of a con-
cession, but regards the Entente's
promises very skeptically.
"nie Freiheit" welcomes the concili-
atory tone of both notes and the
Supreme Councils "uneCuivocal state
ment" that German prisoners will be
restored to freedom Immediately the
peace treaty comes into forca.
Theodor Wolff, in "The Tageblatt. j."
says: THE tone OF the notes is harsh,
but there is grain of conciliatorines SIS
which might acquire value if the En-,
tente would come to an agreement re-
garding the reduction Of it's demands
before, instead of after, the signature
of the protocol"
The "Lokal Anzeiger' counsels going
a step to meet their opponents de-
mands on the Scapa Flow question,
while maintaining Germany's legal
standpoint.
The "Vossische Zeitung" says that
Germany in her distress has no other
recourse than clear recognition of her
present position and the necessity of
her future existence.

HOUSE BREAKER
ESCAPES THROUGH
BULLET BhRRACE
Shows Knowledge of Modern
Warfare by Zigzagging As
Police Open Fire, Taking ADJ
vantage of Natural Cover,

Running through barrage of re-
volver shots, laid down by Police Ser
geant Ed Donahue and Potrolman
Charles Mainz, housebreaker, whose
identity was unknown to the police,
made his escape on the north side
shortly after 4 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing.
The police believed that one of their
bullets hit the running man. He was
seen to stumble, but he quickly re-
gained his balance. however, and kept
on going. The police failed to find
any blood stains on his trail and an
investigation failed to bring to light
that any one with bullet wound had
sought treatment at a doctors office,
Donahue and Mainz met the man
in the 1000 block on North First
street They were on their way to
1118 North First. where a man, at
tempting to enter house, had been
frightened away. He was coming out
of yard when they saw him and
asked him what he was doing. He
mumbled something and dashed off,
the police following and shooting as
they ran.
The man took advantage of all nat
ural cover, the policemen reported,
saying that he began zigzagging after
the first shot and then, reaching a
row of trees, ran from one to the
other. There was no pausing in his
flight, however. He finally eluded
them in the darkness.
The police believe he was the same
man who tried to get into the house
at Ills North First, although they
could not get close enough to him
to see his face clearly. He fled from
that house when the woman who lives
there was awakened and screamed.
She had a chance to see him at close
range and told the police she believed
she would be able to identify him.
one thing that made the police
certain that he was the same man
that they chased was that he had a
small dog with him when he tried to
get into the house. Their fugitive also
had dog. The police did not know
what happened to him in the chase
The woman said that he had opened
the front door. The door was un-
locked, but she had leaned a chair
against it. The chair scraped the
floor as he pushed the door inward
and the noise awakened her She
said he had struck match and was
looking inside to see what was hold
ing the door when she discovered
him.
