Wilson sent telegram from Duis-

men of Washington not to affiliate
with other organizations.
The telegram follows: 'sI hope you

conveying information regarding
my position relative to the affilia-
ton of the police with other or
CARNATIONS of the city. Of course
you understand that I am willing

not be countenanced for moment.

OFFICIALS START
WORK IN EARNEST

Chapel Hill, Sept. 17.-State and

day came out of their realm of re-
serve, lost their preliminary sense of

respective fields of State activity were
thrown out for discussion. The off,

ception apparent to be forming in
the composite mind of the body of
officials of just what the State ought
to do in the new social program
which is being worked out.
Other addresses at thi sconference
may have provoked as equal interest
but certainly none has given evil
dence of greater receptiveness and
interest than the address by State
Highway Commissioner Frank Page
on '"The Development of a State
Highway System by Connecting In
ter-county Roads," Mr.. Page had
his audience interested and succeed
ed in provoking a large amount of
discussion, something which has been
lacking. He turned the conference
into a school, the students of which
proved themselves to be Interested

AMERICA VOTE
MORE POWERFUL
Than Britain's Six Votes. Ja-
pan Promised to Return
Shantung to China.
TRUSTEES OF HUMANITY

San Francisco, CAL, Sept. IT,
Discussing at length the Shantung
provision of the peace treaty Presi-
dent Wilson said in an address
here today that he had been as
sured by the great powers that un-
would be new International policy
for the protection of Chinese integ-
r;ty.
These powers, said Mr.. Wilson,
had Japan promise to return Shan
tung to China and intended to see
that it was fulfilled under the
league. He said he had asked his
colleagues at Versailles specifically
whether they meant under the league
to nauagurate new policy toward
China and they told him they did.
Far from being detrimental to
China's interests, declared Mr.. Will
son, the treaty really was the first
in the worlds history to do some
thing for China's benefit. In all pre-
yious instances of acquisition of
Chinese territory, he said, the Unit
ed States had not even protested.
The Presidents declarations were
received with applause and cheers
b ythe 1900 women present at the
woman's luncheon, at which he
spoke. There were cries of .sno, no.
when he asked whether it would
be wise to go to war over Shantung.
There is no other way, he said, to
secure the Immediate return of the
! province to China.
Mr.. Wilson also discussed the
Monroe doctrine, article ten, and the
right of withdrawal from the league,
repeating previous arguments
! against reservations on those points
and declaring some of the changes
proposed involved merely a question
of literal style.
+, Turning to the objection that
Great Britain has six votes to the
league assembly, Mr.. Wilson said
] it SO happened that '.our one vote
is just as powerful as their six
/; mere is no case in which the assem-
bly, could vote on any important
subject except admission of new
members without a decision first
having been made by the council
L which there was an equolity of
| votes.
Denouncfng "hyphenated" Amer
leans, the President repeated his
charge that pro-German propaga.
nda again was spreading in the
United States. He said opponents OF
/ the treaty were desiring the same
ends Germany was desiring. but
assereed his confidence that the
treaty would be accepted.
| Two addresses were on the pres
| dents program for the first day OF
his stay in San Francisco. He spoke
first at the Womans luncheon civ.
en- by various womens organiza-
tfons OF California, and was applaud.
ed again and again when he de.
clared it was in the interest of the
women of the country that the
treaty be accepted.

THE AMERICAN NAVY

Lond9n, Sept. 10.-(Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press)-The
american Navy is having tremen-
dous task. in sweeping the North Sea
of the $4,000 electrical and highly
sensitive mines they planted there
Cd now employed. Some were sunk
very deep-as deep as a submarine
could go.
Each mine was fitted with an
tennae suspended by floats so that
the huge field by floats so that
with mines, but had also become a
mass of sensitive feelers to explo 1e
them. Should submarine come in
at short distance away at the end
of the antennae would explode.
The problem has been to explode
the mines far enough away from
the sweeper to ensure safety and al
SO to forestaH the danger of the ex-
p1osion of a mine at a safe distance
cNusing another close to the ship
'tgoing off,"
| The vessels in sweeping use special
electric cables several hundred
yards long. Operation of system
of electric appliances prevents the
mines from exploding if the ship
strikes an antennae, but when the
electric wire touches the antennae it
blows the mines up at safe dis
tance from the boat. Hundreds are
being destroyed by this method.
Aside from the danger and te-
diousness of the task, bad weather
is added to the hardships of the
American sailors.
About Is vessels are employed, the
majority of them American. Sub
lchasers help by rounding up drift
ing mines that have broken from
their moorings and sinking or ex-
ploding the mine by firing shot at
