DRY ERA TO BEGIN
IN UNITED STATES
JANUARY 16, 1920

Observation-Disclosures of the
prohibition amendment to the federal
constitution was proclaimed formally
by Frank L. Polk, acting secretary OF
state. The proclamation is dated Jan.
uary 20, but legal authorities of the
department say ratification was &C,
complished when the thirty-six states
acted favorably on January 16 and
that under the terms of the amend
ment itself prohibition becomes effect
i've one year from that date.
This proclamation was signed by Mr.
Polk exactly at 11:20 a. m. in the
presence of Senator Sheppard of Tex
as, author of the resolution; former
Secretary Bryan, Representative c. H.
Randall of California, Prohibitionist,
member of the house, and officials of
the Anti-Saloon League of America, the
Women's Christian Temperance Union
and other anti.saloon organizations.
Mr. Polk used several pens in af-
fixing his signature and presented
them to Senator Sheppard, Mr.. Bryan,
Representative Randall and others.

HOLLANDS SHIPS, TAKEN
DURING THE BIG WAR
WILL BE RETURNED

Washington-Dutch ships requisi
toned by the American government
during the war and now operated by
the shipping board will be uncondi.
tionally returned to Holland as rapid
Nv as they reach United States ports
at the conclusion of their present voy-
ages This announcement is made by
the war trade board, which has reach
ed an agreement on the subject with
shipping board.
The Dutch ships were seized in
United States ports last March 20 by
order of President Wilson, acting in
the war emergency. There were 81
of the vessels with an aggregate OF
500, 900 lightweight tons, but several
of them were destroyed by enemy ac-
ton or storms while in the service
of the United States.
The war trade boards announce
ment said the release of the craft had
been decided upon because the war
emergency had passed and because OF
the wish of the board to return ships
and trade to normal channels and con-
ditions as quickly as possible.

BRITISH STRIKE IS SERIOUS
In Belfast And Glasgow Movement Is
Similar To That In Ger
man Cities

London.-There still was no pros
pect of any betterment in the labor
situation in the United Kingdom. II
anything the situation, both in Glasgow
and Belfast, has become more serious
particularly in Belfast
The strike movement is spreading to
the large industrial establishments,
and there are undoubted signs of com
ing disorders which may entail the
proclamation of martial law. The sit
uation was the subject for discussion
at a special meeting Of the cabinet.
and the board of trade is also active
in an effort to bring about settlements.
The view taken by the government
is that any governmental interference
now would be unwise and perhaps dan
gerous The strike movements are To-
cal and against the advice of the rep
trade unions.
The problem in view for the gov
eminent ministers is how to re-estab-
fish the authority of the trade unions
and to assist to the greatest possible
extent in the expansion of machinery
Of Cancellation so as to enable each
trade to settle its own disputes.

ARMY OF FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND MEN DECIDED
UPON FOR UNITED STATES
The Permanent Future Military
Policy OF Country

Washington-An army of FIVE hun
dred thousand men was unanimously
decided on by the house military com.
mittee as the basis for determining the
appropriation for army pay for the
year beginning next July. Committee
members say that the number is ex-
pected to be the average force during
the year.
The decision marks the beginning
Of the committees work of framing
the annual military appropriation bill.
Member say it has no bearing on per-
manent military policy in the future
and that while pay was figured for
half million men, it does not follow
that appropriations for the various
branches of the service will be such
as to provide for an army actually or
ganized as a permanent force of that
size.

than the total OF any previous year.
The aggregate value Of farm crops for

Illinois ranked first in the value OF
all crops as did that state in 1917.
Iowa, Texas and Georgia were Sec

CLAIMS OUTLINED
AT PEACE MEETING
DELEGATES OF FIVE GREAT POW.
ERs COMPARING THEIR
OWN ASPIRATIONS
FRENCH WANT RHINE STATES
Great Britain To Take Mandatory
Powers over The Ger
man Colonies

Paris.-The delegates of the five
great powers are now in a position
TO compare clearly their own aspira-
tons and those of all their allied
friends and to see the differences that
must be reconciled. The maximum of
hopes, often overlapping, has been told
freely and il remains for the peace
conference to adjust them into a CO.
ordinated whole. The desires of the
several countries as presented may be
compressed thus:
France wants, first of all, Alsace-
Lorraine Internationally and the right
to discuss and ultimately TO fix the
| French frontiers in their relation TO
the Rhine, which may require the Gre
| alton of buffer states. One of these
would be the Palatinate and another
Rheinish Prussia. France desires also
TO annex the basin of the Sarfre river,
which might be called remuneration.
France will insist that so far as the
left bank of the Rhine further to the
north is concerned the conference
should forbid military works of any
fortresses-in that zone. The feeling
is that the people inhabiting that zone
should be free to decide for themselves
whether they wish to join France, form
an independent or return to the Ger
man government.
The French government does not |
ask for a protectorate in Syria in the
ordinary sense because it considers |
that the population there is too advanc-
ed to make a protectorate necessary,
but France, on account of her tradi-
tional interests in that country, feels
that she should be called upon to ex-
ercise some sort of guardianship or
guidance until Syria should be fully
able to govern herself.
Great Britain's delegation believes
that a society of nations is desirable
and obtainable and that it must be
established by the present peace con-
ference. She advances no continental
purposes other than those of perma-
nent and just peace under the princi-
pies of sel-determination and that
here shall be international freedom of
ransit by railroads and waterways.
which is Great Britain's general def
milton of freedom of commerce in the
ime of peace.
Italy asks for the Trentino as far as
he Bremen Pass, including the whole
# the southern Tyrol; Trieste, Istria, ,
'iume, cara, Sebenico, the larger part :
f the Dalmatian islands, Ovlona and
is Hinterland, protectorate over AL
ania, possession of the islands in the -
-egean which were taken from Turkey \

of vast naval expansion unless world
disarmament becomes certainty
through international agreement at
Paris, was approved by the house ma
val committee in unanimously recon-
menGing new three-year building
program of ten great battleships and
ten scout cruisers.
Four Democrats and two Republi-
cans were understood to have opposed
the program as originally outlined but
their approval was given after an
amendment was accepted providing
that work on the new ships would not
begin until after February /, 1920. AID
ministrstion leaders said the vote was
an Endorsement of the program an
nounced by Secretary Daniels for an
American navy second to none unless
limitations are imposed on all nations
by the peace conference. Should an
agreement for such limitation be
reached, the bill provides that the
president may stop construction at his
discretion.
Wmle the program as recommended
does not authorize the six battle cruis-
ers and 100 other smaller craft asked
for by the department, it was explain
ed that it had been decided to post |
pone construction of these vessels I'M
til naval experts could reach an agree
ment as to their designs based on ex-
perience gained in the war.
The agreement of the committee was
reached at long executive session,
after which Chairman Padgett smil-
ingly announced that the decision had
been unanimous. Mr. Padgett said
the completed naval bill would carry
a total of $3.50, 900, 900, of which sum
$169,OO0,OO0 would be for ship con-

Paris.-Germany's colonies occupied
the entire attention of two extended
executive sessions of the supreme
council of the great powers, and the
disposition of this small empire scat
tered over the African mainland, in

the first magnitude.

Gen. Jan Christian SHUTS, the
South African leader, and Gen. Louis

ready have been heard on the question
of German East Africa, and now it
only remains to obtain the viewpoint
of the Belgians, who are about to pre-
sent their ideas of their interests on
the colonies adjacent to the Belgian
Congo. 1t appears to be the general
ly accepted view among those having |
interests in the matter that Germany's
colonies should not be returnga.sso |

This, in turn, has developed another
crucial question, namely, whether Ger

should pass to the powers who may
