Denekine Believed
in Bad Straits

/ Berne, Dec. 17.-Advices re-
ceived by the Ukrainian mission.
here concerning the progress of
forces of General Petlura against
the army of General Denikine
the -bolsheviki leader in South
Russia, led to the belief among the
members of the mission that Deni-
kine's situation is almost hopeless.
The report says that after
Denikine's breakdown Trotzky, boil
shevik minister of war, intends to
spring an offensive against Poland
and that for this purpose he reck-
ons on aid from German volunteer
detachments and a new Chinese
army which is being recruited in
Eastern Siberia.

TO BIND UNITED STATES
French Proponent Has Plan to Re-
strict Sales OF Arms.

Paris, Feb. 3.-Leon Bourgeois, the
French uroponent of league of ma
tions, transmitted today to the So
ciety OF nations commission recon-
mendations as to principles which
had been submitted to him by the
interallied association for the pro-
motion of a league of nations.
One of the recommendations urged
that the society of nations establish
an international commission on edu-
cation. other recommendations were
of a military nature. One of these
would bind the United States to pro-
hibit the sales of arms and NUM-
tions now manufactured, or which
may be ultimately manufactured, to
states outside the league, while an
other would prohibit the trade and
manufacture of all arms and NUM-
tions of war by private establish
ments. 1t also was recommended
that the society of nations shall fix
the number of men to be enrolled in
the military and naval forces of each
member, having regard only for pos
sible aggressions from states outside
the league. or in revolt against IL. II
a Ids that the associated states should
impose under the central powers, by
peace treaty, limitations of arma-
ments and the control of their manu-
facture so as to permit members CT
the society of nations TO reduce i'm
nlediately and substantially their es-
~ ahlishments.

Savannah. Ga. Feb. 4.--Practically
500 men employed in the two largest
shipyards in Savannah went on a
strike this morning. About 200 men
went out at the plant of the Founda-
ton company. They are plumbers
and steam filters. They demand
more money. Carpenters, caulkers
and joiners of the Terry shipbuilding
plant went out to the number of $50,
because of a difference to back time
ard objections to two foremen. Of
ficials say there is no fear of a gen.
eral strike at either place.

WILSON NO TIME TO EAT
Special Tasks Fill Days-Sails Home
in Less Than Two Weeks.

Paris, Feb. "A. P.)-President
Wilson has several appointments for
today, including a call from repre-
sentatives of the Bible society and
visits from some republican con-
gressmen who have arrived in Paris.
He Is determined, however. that Moth
ing shall be permitted to obstruct
the progress of the commission of
which he is chairman and which is
now engaged in perfecting the scheme
for the creation of a society Of ma
tions.
He is. therefore, concentrating his
attention upon that work. While
less than two weeks remain before
the date set for his return to Wash
ington, it is still rgarded as within
the range of possibility for the great
prospect not only to be reported from
the committee, but also for the peace
conference in plenary session to rat
fy the plan and thus put it fairly in
the wa to be registered in treaty form
within the time limit. This would
make a record for international con-
ferences, but the Paris gathering al
ready has done that in several in
stances.
