 later to give the Italians time to re-
 turn and to allow adjustments of questions concerning Belgium.
 This may be inserted at the last

New Hampshire People Want
 Army Man for President

Washington, May 5.-In the opin- Iion of Senator Moses of New Hamp Hshire, a growing sentiment is spread ling throughout the republican party for the nomination of General Leon- sard Wood as the partys candidate Tor president in 1920. Senator Moses Hsays New Hampshire will offer Gen. #eral Woods name at the republican Sconyention as Q fayorite son, and he Believes that the general, if nom- inated, would be elected
 Senator Moses says sentiment for sGeneral Wood is dcveloping in all the New England states, as well as Throughout the West. He finds "more sentinient. of the kind that elects nresidents surrounding General Wood than any other who has been men toned as a nominee in 1920" The only question: he says, is whether the demand among the party's voters can 'bc transmitted into the kind of sen .timent that produces delegates and dominates presidents"
 Senator Moses says Now Hamp- shire has prior claim to General Wood, as he was born in that state but that Massachusetts also backs him, as he entered the army from that state, while Kansas has given
 him her citizenship.

 Reports from all Italian towns de- scribe demonstrations similar to that held today in Rome. The munich pality of Brescia which had decided to present President Wilson copy of it's famous statue of Victory cast in bronze taken from captured Austrian cannon, has revoked the decision and will ask Signor d'Annunzio to present the statue to Plume.
