Paris, Monday. Feb. 3-Leon
Bourgeois, the French proponent
of league of nations, transmitted
today to the Society of Nations
commission recommendations of
principles which had been submit
ted to him by the inter allied asso-
citation for the promotion of a lea
que of nations.
One of the recommendations
urged that the society of nations
establish an international commits
sion Of education. Other recon-
mcndations were of a military ma
ture, one of these would bind the
associated states to prohibit the
sales of arms and munitions now
possessed. or which may ultimately
be manufactured, to states outside
the league, while another would
prohibit the trade and manufac-
ture of all arms and munitions of
war by private establishments. 1t
also was recommended that the
society of nations shall fix the
number of men to be enrolled in
&he military and naval forces of
each member, having regard only
for possible aggressions from

revolt against it. IL adds that the
associates states should impose
upon the central powers, by peace
treaty, limitations of armaments
and the control of their nanufac-
ture 50 as to permit members of
the society of nations to reduce
mediately and substantially
their establishments.
Paris, Feb. 4.-President Wilson
has esveral problems for today,
including a call from representa-
tiVes of the Bible society and
visits from some republican con-
gressmen who have arrived in
Paris. He is determined, however,
that nothing shall be permitted to
obstruct the progress of the COM
mission Of which he is the chair
man, and which is now engaged in
perfecting the scheme for the
creation of a society of nations.
He is, therefore, concentrating
his aattention upon that work.
While less than two weeks remain
before the date set for his return
to Washington, il is still REGARDED

for the great project, not only to

CONGRESS TO PRESS
WAR ON HIGH COSTS
Food Prices and Railroad Employees
Demand First
AFTER THESE TREATIES
Both Houses Working for Sine Die
Adjournment Early This Fall

Washington, Aug. 3.-Spccding up
of legislation, with the high cost of
living and the railroad employees wage
demands, appeared as the new and out
standing problems tonight facing Con
gress, and House members were pre-
parting to grant President Wilson's re
quest for a postponement Of their
recess.
Leaders began revision of their pro-
gram, both personal and Legislative,
and the opinion spreac that efforts
now would be concentrated toward
rushing through important matters in
the hope of sine die adjournment
early this fall Of both houses, to give
members rest before the regular De-
cember session.
Consideration by the Senate of treat
ties and enactment of legislation, lead
ers hope, may be expedited, although
for the next fortnight, awaiting for
mutation of a solution to the high
cost of living and railroad wage
questions, three-day recesses may
solve the disappointment of House
members denied the longer adjourn
ment.
Trunks Unpacked
Unpacking of trunks and obtaining
of refunds on vacation tickets occu-
pied many House members, who laid
away today with their vacation clothes
all hope of midsummer vacation
Many members, however, are not in
the city and may be required to re-
turn, while a few insist that, regard
less Of the annulment Of the recess,
they will leave for other points.
Consideration Of the Goldman,
French and Colombian treaties large
ly will occupy the attention of the
Senate, while the House is engaged on
high cost Of living, railroad and other
questions.
The Colombian treaty will be
brOugfht before the Senate tomorrow
for consideration in open session,
thereby establishing a new precedent,
expected forever to ban secret dis
posal ftreaties Several Senators
plan to oppose the treaty, but the op-
position comedies its final ratification
