SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, Jan. 1S.- Representatives of seven western states gathered in conference here to- day gave impetus to the movement launched by Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane for settlement of soldiers and sailors on public lands, particularly lands in the west.
 Contemplating the probable expen- allure of hundreds of millions of dol lars, fhe deliberations of the confer ence were extended over to tOmor- row when il developed that the matter was too gigantic 10 permit of hurried action. A committee was appointed to prepare resolutions which would indi- cate to what extent the western states represented were behind the interior departments movement, but the. com mittee did not have time to formulate its resolutions before adjournment to- day.
 The committee was requested to in- clude in it's report a section favoring action by all sitting legislatures in consequence with a tentative draft of law for cooperation between the SldLt sAl-h tliI ANuNA al PAC viding means for settlement of sol diers and sailors on public lands and the creation of a settlement fund by each commonwealth in the nation.
 The committee on resolutions is as follows:
 Joseph R. Baum, Arizona; Francis Cuttle. California: Clyde c. Dawson, Colorado; E. w Griffith, Nevada; w. S Hopewell. New Mexico; James B. True, Wyoming; w. R. Wallace, Utah. George Albert Smith. president of the national irrigation congress. was made a member of the committee as a courtesy to that organization.
 States represented at the confer ence are Nevada, Wyoming. California, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah. New Mexico is represented by r. NJ. Reece and W. S. Oswald; Colo rado by L. G. Carpenter. c. c. Daw- son and w J. Gallagher and Arizona by F B. Selew and Joseph R. Baum.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-CoaSt artil- lery men from Connecticut and scat tered states and aero. construction troops from Pennsylvania.

 Officers Are Injured
 Mountainous waves buffeted the vessel, and one demolished the pilot house. injuring Captain Luby, Com mander Caldwell and a number of of- ficers and sailors on duty. Commander Caldwell was disabled for a week and his companions were badly cut and bruised.
 In the midst of the storm, with waves at times running 10 feet high, two army surgeons performed an ope- ration for appendicitis upon a soldier aboard the South Dakota.
 When the condition of Cpl. E. O. Williams of the Seth Coast Artillery was pronounced dangerous, the war vessel lay to in order to facilitate the operation. Lashed to the table, the surgeons accomplished their delicate task between lurches of the ship and today the artillery man was removed to a hospital on the way to recovery.

PUdereWski Ministry
 May Defeat BOLsheUiki

10 German robbery and destruction of Polish factories which were intended to give Germany the entire market here and in Russia.
 Express to Paris
 One of the first steps of Minister of Railways Eberhard will gbe to estab- fish a Paris Warsaw express. It is believed the Czecho-SlOvak govern ment will not raise too great oDjec- tions to this plan. In order to reach Poland the train would have to tra- verse Bohemia and part of Austria.
 By selling to the Czechs, the Poles, who possess a majority of the coal mines. which supply the CZechs and Austrians, hope to obtain the right of passage to Vienna. Poles have been much concerned over the recent ad- vances of the CZechs, who have been invading the coal and oil districts of Galicia, claiming this was being done with the permission of the allies.
 Regarding the bolsheviki danger 1t is generally believed that M. Padere- wski's task will be to use the army of General Haller as the nucleus for a national army of half million men under enforced service, rather than the voluntary system which has pre- vailed to date, permitting the forma- ton of red guards
 It is pointed out that the allies have supplies of arms, ammuni- tion, shoes and clothing which they can immediately ship. The Poles make efficient and brave soldiers and are anxious to serve against the bol- sheviki. In the operations for the lib eration of Lemberg they demonstrate ed their spirit and capacity.

M. Clemenceau Announces Subjects to Be Considered When Replying to Wilson and Premier Lloyd George
Congress Must Determine Re sponsibility fot War, for Crimes of War, and Inter national Labor Legislation

PARIS. Jan. 1S.-(By the Associated Press. s.)-The peace congress. destined to be historic and on which the eyes of the world are now centered, was opened this afternoon in the great Sale de Ia Paix. The proceedings. which were confined to the election of Georges Clemenceau, the French premier. as permanent chairman of the conference, an address of welcome by the president of the French repub- lie, Raymond Poincare, and speeches by President Wilson, Premier Lloyd George and Baron SOnninc. were char acterized by expressions of lasting friendship and the apparent determi- nation of the representatives of the various nations to come to an amica- ble understanding with respect to the problems to be decided by the confer ence.
 When President Poincare spoke. the entire assembly stood, and the fact that, according to custom. no applause greeted his utterance gave greater sol emnity to the scene.
 Defines Responsibilities
 M. Clemenceau's acceptance of the pIeSlQeQCl or Iue COuSTeSS Was uOlH feeling expression of personal grati- tude and a definite outline of the great questions immediately ahead. Three of these larger general subjects he de fined as responsibility for the war. re- sponsibility for crimes during the war. and international labor legislation. The league of nations, he declared. was at the head of the program for the next full session.
 Our ambition is a great and noble one" said M Clemenceau. We wish to avoid a repetition of the catastro- phe which bathed the world in blood. If the league of nations is to be prac- ticable We must all remain united. Let us carry out our program quickly and in an effective manner.
 Referring to the authors of the war he said he had consulted two eminent jurists on the penalties which could be imposed on the former German em-

American, British and Italian Newspaper Men Plan Fight if Secrecy Rule Impedes Flow of News to Countries

CRv Revlew 1easea Nirel

PARIS. Jan. lS.-The first formal session Of the peace conference was opened freely to the press of all na- tions. How many of the succeeding sessions win by the decisions of the conference be held in camera has not been indicated, but the American newspapermen, and probably also the British and Italian, are preparing to reopen the question of publicity 1T they should decide that the flow of news is impeded by rules of secrecy.
 In a formal communication 10 the conference, the Americans assumed that the rule fOrbidding the delegates to discuss the doings of the confer ence with the correspondents would not he enforced. While no announce ment on this subject has been made, it is learned on the authority of dele gates that th rule does still obtain.
 Settlement Next Week.
 What action the correspondents will take will probably be developed next week. when the exact character of the press representation and the number to be admitted to the confer ence will be determined.
 Following IS the text or tne colh- munication sent by American news papermen to the supreme council:
 ''The American press delegation ac- knowledges the reply of the peace conference to the resolutions ad- dressed to them. The delegation notes that the decision that repre- sentatives Of the press shall be ad- mitted to the meetings of the full conference is an acceptance of the principle of direct press representa- tion for which the press of America, Great Britain and Italy and smaller nations contended.
 The value of this principle, how ever, turns on the extent and ire Quency Of its limitations in practice. The peace conference announces its intention to limit to the extent that on necessary occasions the delibera- tions or the conference may be held in camera Without assent on our part to this limitation we trust that if ever it is applied, the public will be advised through the press at the outset of each session in camera of the subject to be discussed and the

 WARSAW, Friday. Jan. 1.-The Polish ministry formed by Ignace Jan Padarewski, apparently meets the ap- proval of all parties except radical socialists. They have threatened a general strike if the Paderewsk min istry holds office until the elections to the national assembly which are planned for the middle of February.
 In a note to the Polish people on ac- cepting office, M Paderewski said:
 "ln moment of danger. nobody has the right to refuse public service. Tn a democratic state the only men able to govern are those who are obedient to the people. The new government will not be a party one. We further declare that in order to succeed, the Polish republic must be considered as an ally of the allies.
 Outlines Broad Program
 Our program is: First, call a par liamen; seoCnd. defend the frontiers; third. help the working classes; fourth secure food and other supplies; fifth, rebuild the cotton and woolen mills; sixth. the regulation of finances and the securing of internal and foreign loans: seventh. to establish order"
 NJ. Paderewski informed the corre- spondent that before coming to War saw he had officers from foreign bank ink syndicates to make any necessary loans for bringing in raw materials with which to give work to the thou sands who are idle in manufacturing centers like Lodz. In view of the high prices existing here and in Rus sia it is believed certain that Poland will quickly make up the losses due
