CBy Review Leased wire)

PARIS, Jan. 14-it became known today that three Young Mems Chris tian association workers are under ar rest in Paris charged with defalca- tion of funds of the association.
 The men are George Schoeffel, form CT secretary of the chamber of com merce of Rochester, N. Y, the Rev. R. Atkins of Eagle Pass, Texas, and Mansfield, said to have been a former secretary of the Sailors Union of New York city
 The total amount alleged to have been misappropriated approximates S3S,940, most of which has been re- covered. In connection with the al legged dedication, F. C. Carter, seere- tary of the American expeditionary force of the Y. M. C. A, today made the following statement:
 During the six months ending Octo- Der l, the Y. NJ. C. A. canteen business approximated S16,O0O,000 The Ameri- can expeditionary force remittance business aggregated S14 1900. 900 for the year 1918. The American Y. NJ. C. A. in France has found in the course of it's investigations up to the present miSapprOpriations to the amount of $3S,94O.
 Along with the excellent record of IS workers cited by the United States and French military authorities 30 workers have been killed or died in the service. Out of a total staff of more than 5000 workers to date three have been charged with dedication.
 Reported irregularities at Foul led the legal department of the Y. NJ. C. A. to make an investigation with the re- suit that when one man was arrested he made a confession and admitted having in his possession Y. NJ. c. A. money. a part of which was in a trunk he had stored in Paris. Some of this money had been invested in French bonds and some had been secreted per sonally.
 Another worker at Brest confessed taking small sums regularly. The third and most fragrant case was that Of a worker accused of appropriating S7,000 francs, which it is charged. he secreted and placed in various pack ages which were deposited with the American Express company.
 Fortunately the greater part of all the money stolen has been recovered. The Y. NJ. C. A. has asked the army to prosecute these cases to the limit and to impose the full penalty on any workers proving recreant to the trust of the American people"
 The court martial trial will begin this week.

FACTION FEELS CERTAIN WILL PASS QUIETLY
Spartican and Independent Socialist Forces Curbed by
 Government Troops; Bol- sheviki Contagion Dying

BERLIN. Sunday, Jan. 12 (By the Associated Pressl l.-The EbeXt gov ernment tonight was confident of its physical ability to defend the cleo tions for the national assembly next Sunday. January 19, against violence from Spartacan and independent sO- cialist sources.
 The insurrection generally. 1t ap- peared tonight, had been effectually put down, chiefly because the new troops called in by the government had taken matters in hand and were determined to give the followers of Liebknecht no quarter. The next few days, it is declared. will witness the inauguration of further drastic mili- tary measures. calculated to stamp cut the bolshevik cOntagion.
 Dispatches dated Berlin, Monday and Tuesday, have reported that the Spartacan leaders had disappeared and that their forces had been over awed by the governments troops.)
 Show No Mercy
 One of these measures covers the illegal possession of arms and ammu- milton and it is proposed to make this offense punishable with immediate death. The military men now coop erating with the government propose to show the insurgents no mercy and they amply demonstrated this policy during the recapture of the VorwaertS building and police headquarters.
 It is declared by creditable eye wit nesses that the new government troops in both actions Saturday beat down with bayOnets and with clubs and otherwise killed scores of men who were Spartacan guards or civil ians caught with arms. Hundreds of persons already have been arrested and are facing severe penalties.
 The last ripple of the wave which has swept over Berlin in the past seven days now are being felt in the spread of robbery and footing which is being carried on by soldiers and sailors who detached themselves from Spartacan units. The section of Der lin radiating from the police head quarters in the past AS hours has been terrorized by armed men who pill feTed food shops. cigar stores and public. buildings. Three sailors walk ed into a postal sub-station yesterday and carried off 10000 marks.
 Gunmen Gather
 Gunmen and criminals from all parts of Germany hurried to Berlin in the first days of the revolution. according to reports and enlisted in the Spartacan forces at the police station, which served as a base for private undertakings when the men were not engaged in obeying the or ders of the Spartacan leaders. Dur ing the vandalism all criminal records. official documents and rogues galler- ies at police headquarters were de strOyed Berlin at one time ranked as one of the best policed cities in the world; tonight it is virtually de- fenseless against lawlessness.

In Harmony With Program of Reconstruction Work,
 House Receives Measure to Give State Four Trunk Lines
Senate Receives Report of Pat ronage Committee; Cochise Residents Become Clerks in
 This Branch of Legislature
Review Phoenix Bureau)

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 14.-Serious legislation in consonance with the program of reconstructive work pledged by the fourth state legisla- ture, began in the house today with the introduction by Representative Eddy Of Yuma of a constitutional amendment proposing for road bond issue of S3O,000,00O. The presentation of the bill created consternation, par ticularly among the new members, and passed it's first reading.
 The proposed measure would amend Section 5 of Article g of the constitu- tion. which limits the indebtedness which may be contracted any fiscal year for expenses not otherwise pro- vided for to S3O0,000. It provides for the creation of a state highway ad- visory board, to consist of five mem bers serving without salary. who would supervise the construction of the highways contemplated.
 Four Trunk Lines.
 The money, to be raised by the sale of 5 per cent serial bonds controlled by the commission on the institutions, would be expended for four trunk lines, namely, the Santa Fe highway in northern Arizona, the Borderland route in the southern part of the state, the Roosevelt dam highway and the Grand canyon highway.
 The introduction of the bill was the bright spot in a dull day.

President Wilson Meets With

Official Language of Confer ences Will Be Decided To- day; Representation of Ma
 tions May Slightly Change

PARIS. Jan. If. (9:17 D. m.. by the Associated Press. )-The conference of President Wilson with Premier Lloyd George, Andrew Bonar Law and A. J. Balfour this afternoon gave OppOrtun- ity for a most satisfactory exchange on views on the subjects coming up for settlement at tOmorrow's session of the supreme war council. The hope is expressed that this will result in giving greater speed to the work Of both the supreme war council and the iRter-allied peace conference.
 It is expected that the sittings Of the war council will occupy the entire day One of the questions to be dis cussed is the official language to be used during the sessions. It appears also that the question of representa- tiOn has not been entirely solved. and this matter will come up for further discussion.
 May Not Speak French
 It is said tonight that the supposi- tion that the French language has been decided upon as the only tongue to be used in the conference is at least premature.
 The opening session of parliament and the cabinet meeting today took up the attention of Premier Clemen- eeau and his collabOraters as that lit tie opportunity was afforded for a further conference with the French statesmen before tOmOrrOw's meeting. It is not thought that there will be any difficulty in settling the questions of language. procedure and representa- tion, though, in view of the number Of nations represented and their varying interests, the question of representa- tion may develop a somewhat lengthy discussion.
