heard at the Peace Conference be-
caus the Peace Conference has no

of characterization for
Ireland is expressed in Article XI
of the covenant is which may say
I was paticulary interested, because
1t seemed to me necessary for the
peace and freedom of the world
that a forum should be created to

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 4.-Wool growers will receive from forty to fifty cents pound for the coming spring clip, according to w. Mcclure, secre- tary of the National Woolgrowers' as- sociation. who returned here today from Washington Mcclure went to the capital in the interest of the wool growers, in an effort to counteract what was alleged to have been an ef- fort to have the government sacrifice the immense stock of wool in Boston warehouses.
 The prices. according to Mir Mcclure will be about fifteen cents less than for the last crop. but he says conditions might have been worse.
 'The government has agreed to fix minimum price on the wool now in the Boston warehouses, which is equal to the British issue price, or the lowest price paid for wool ill the world" MT. Mcclure said. 'The government has agreed to discontinue these sales on | July l, if it has any wool remaining
 in order not to interfere with the sales of the seasons clip"

BEWARE IF BREAD
 LINES BY MAY 1ST

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.--If the wave of unemployment sweeping over the country is not checked, the prediction of Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor, that we shall have bread lines in the big cities of the country by May l, will come true" declared Nathan A. Smythe, as sistant director general of the United States employment service, in an ad- dress here tonight.
 Speaking before employment service examiners, from states east of the Mississippi, MT. Smythe answered at tacks which he said had been made on the service by private agencies, friends of state employment agencies and the National Metal Trades association.
 These attacks said MT. Smythe, "are being made upon the only govern ment agency that is engaged in getting jobs for returning soldiers, sailors and war workers.
 "A spirit of social unrest is spread ing across the country like influenza and the only agency working against it is the United States employment l service"
 | Asserting that the most serious at- 1 tack had come from the National Meta | Trades association, Mir. Smythe said: "The Metal Trades association has some fourteen or fifteen branch of fees throughout the country, whicf operate as employment agencies. The association stands for an open shop Some of it's members are openly op posed to organized labor, although thi cannot be said of the membership a. a whole.
 Tn these branches there is kep what known to laboring men as { black list Naturally organized labo
 is very much opposed to this system.

BLIND DEMANDS
 MADE BY WILSON .|NC|TE SQUAbb[E
Passage Of Naval Bill On Cable Orders From Presi- dent Contested Padgett Refuses To Disclose Mes sages Contents-Person- alities Involved.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-Disclosure in the house today by Chairman Pad gett of the naval comittee, that Presi- dent Wilson, in cablegram last week to Secretary Daniels, insisted that congress adopt the new three-year naval building program, was followed by futile efforts of republican mem- bers to obtain the text of the message.
 Representative Padgett said the presidents s cablegram was responsible for the committees unanimous recom- mendation of the construction of ten dreadnaughts and ten scout cruisers, carried in the new $750,000,000 naval appropriation bill, consideration of which was begun today in the house. MT. Padgett refused to make public the text of the message on the ground that questions of foreign policy were involved in it's contents.
 ''The president was very insistent that the three-year program should be carried out" declared Mir. Pargett.
 Tn substance, the president said nothing had occurred over there to change his recommendations, but said if there were developments in the way of tribunals for disarmament and a league of nations, he would be willing a proviso should be inserted to allow him to discontinue the program ImperaIistic Poicys Only one member of the house op- l posed the proposed naval expansion 1 bill during the debate today. Repre- l sentative Huddleston of Alabama crit 1 icised the bill as representing "a | policy of imperialism that would sad 1 dle the country with burden of mili- tarism,' and would lead to another war. Representative Kelly of Michi- gan, republican member of the naval committee, urged the expansion as did Representative Miller of Washington another republican.
 A cross fire of questions from repub- 1 lican representatives disclosed that tho president had sent message urging the necessity of passing the bill. Rep resentative Gillette of Massachusetts asked if the message said that tho failure of the bill would be fatal to my negotiations" and said he regarded
 such language as ''intimating tn I United States had only one negotiato over there"
 That is not accurate" answered MT
 Padgett.
 Pressed by Representative Rodger of Massachusetts, republican, wht
 asked if the word "fatar' was used, Nil , Padgett said he would have to be ex
 cused from answering as to the word that were or were not in the presi , dents cable" and added that he woul

CR0WDER
 WAS APPROVED DECLARED FALSE

WASHINGTON, Feb. +Dis- cussion at the capitol of reports that Provost Marshal General Crowder had been reprimanded by General March, chief of staff, led the war department to author i've statement today that Gen. eraI Crowder's entire military record was unmarred, and to dis close the origin of the reprimand story.
 It was stated that when the second draft was being planned, General March and General Crow der differed over the provision for medical examinations, and ex- changed letters on the subject. The language of a brief abstract of General March's letter, which went to division headquarters in the course of departmental routine was construed by General Crowder as implying a reprimand, and he took the matter up with Secretary Baker. The secretary wrote in reply that he found no reprimand was intended, but that to make this clear, he had had the langu- age to which the general objected altered.
