Washington, April 2S.- Former
Kaiser Wilhelm and his agents must
answer to the allies for every outrage
and violation of international law dur
ing the war, if the peace conference
adopts proposals before it.
Furthermore, all secrets of the Ger
man war office must be barred to per-
nit the allies to discover those respon-
sible.
The proposal to try the ex-kaiser
has been pushed by the French dele
gates thruout the conference in face
of reported opposition from Japan
ese delegates and apathy from some
others.
Provisions requiring a fair trial,
however, have been inserted to over
come this opposition and to insure JUS
tice even if stern. to those responsible
for the war.
Germany will now be required to
assist the allies in running down the
guilty ones and this provision, if
adopted. will force the German peace
delegates to admit their responsibility
of the former regime for the war and
would put Germany on record for all
time. Not only perpetrators of out
RACES in Belgium and France. but
thousands of spies working in all
countries, including the United States,
could be apprehended by revelations
which Germany would promise under
the pending articles. The record of
the German secret service and her ef-
ficient espionage service and scores of
spy plots in the United States would
| be run down.
Especially significant is article III.
which provides military trial for those
guilty of criminal acts against citizens
| Of allied countries This provision
would extend to the hundreds of mill

ruthless reign of the sword in Bel
GUM. There is some doubt as to how
! far the provisions would extend, es-
pecially whether they provide punish
ment for every one violating not only
the laws but the customs of war

RUPERT HUGHES
HAS DEPARTED
Leaves His Old Home Town After a
Very Brief Visit, but Says
He Will Be Here Longer
This Summer.

II couldn't stay longer just now,
but next summer I'll be back for a
real visit of several weeks" said
Rupert Hughes just before his de-
parture last evening after spending
a few days in Keokuk
He visited his parents here over
Sunday and left for New York ON
the evening train yesterday.
During the world war he was in
the intelligence section Of the army
directly under General Churchill,
head of the censorship. and Rupert
Hughes really did most of the work
of that bureau, with over two hun
dred censors under him all over the
world. When he was promoted to
major, General Churchill gave him
his own old gold leaves with a let
ter saying he had earned them by
doing well a great task requiring
consummate energy. delicacy and
tact. At a banquet Secretary Baker
praised the work of Major Hughes
in the highest terms as invaluable to
the American army.
Now Major Hughes is going back
to New York to be Rupert Hughes
again and to resume his real work
of writing novels and plays.

Necessity for Building
One Here.
HIGH COST NOT FAVORED
But an Auditorium Large Enough to
Seat Several Thousand People
and Hold Large sanquets
Is Desired.

.'Keokuk certainly ought to build

meetings it has nowadays" said q
man at the big banquet last evening.
There are some central places with
small and poor buildings on them that
ought to be cleared off and have a
big auditorium built in their place"
said another man in the conversation.
Several times recently the need OF
"a building capable of holding several
thousand people has been felt here.
and the project Of building one is re-
ceiving more and more consideration
in q very serious vein wherever KeO-
kuk men meet and talk.
Nobody seems to have the idea of
constructing monster building OF
fre architecture and costly materials
The general idea Is that the new col
liseum ought TO be about half way be-
tween a Billy Sunday tabernacle ano
the coliseum in Chicago.
Nothing definite has crystalized
about it, but the idea seems to be
growing here.
