PLEASES WILSON
Tells Correspondent Trade
Relations Should Be
Resumed.

! Washington. July 1o.-Prestdent
Wilson, comforting with newspaper
correspondents at the White House to-
day, indicated that he was extremely
gratified that the treaty Of peace had
been ratified 50 promptly by the Ger
man national assembly,
The president also indicated that he
felt trade relations between Germany
and the associated nations should be
resumed at the earliest moment possi-
BILE for without trade Germany could
not meet the reparations demanded of
her. 1t was made clear that the presi-
dent felt troops should be maintained
In Germany until the Germans had
complied with all the military terms
of the treaty. 1t was pointed out that
there were several million veteran
soldiers in Germany and munitions
sufficient for them to operate.
T, Would Keep Men on Rhine.
The Germans have from one to four
months from which to deliver all ma
terial except that sufficient for the
reduced German army provided for in
the peace treaty and. the president
believes American troops should stay
livered. 4s.Ss-
Discussing the peace negotiations
at Paris, President Wilson let it be
known that the League Of Nations
covenant will be in Every treaty nego-
tiated at Versailles, including that
with Bulgaria with which country the
United States never was at war.
In response to questions regarding
the Fiume situation, the president
pointed out that the treaty Of London
provides that Fiume was to go to
Croatia and that Italy did not lay
claim to the city when that treaty was
signed
The president made it clear that
demo bilization of the American army
would depend upon the speed with
which the military conditions of the

III. S. to Pay Big Part. ~,
Mr.. Wilson feels. that the United
States must play generous part In
the reconstruction of Europe but he
believes this should be accom- pffshed
by establishing some sound basis OF
credit rather than by direct govern
mont aid. Mr.. Wilson'S purpose to
present the peace treaty and the
agreement with France separately was
disclosed today at conference lvinl

ed that his time thus far had been

Readers of the advertising pages ef magazines are doubtless familiar with the typical publicity display ef tie correspondence school. It gen. orally contains illustrations and text, and the latter is often embel6shed with notices and catchwords. Get out of the dinner pail class" is one of them. Another is you can make more money with your collar on.
 The picture often shows rejoic- ing mechanic being greeted by ms wife on his return from work, after being appointed superintendent. Or a cordial employer shaking hands with an overalled toiler, and tells him that he has been made an. exc cutive, as result of taking Q tech nical correspondence course.
 But the argument begins to lose force. There are sign painters helpers drawing $6 a1day and drafts men getting SIS week. There are executives at $25 a week and milk wagon drivers at $35.
 It begins to look as though a man is penahzed for educating himself.
