RU MANIANS
INTEND TO SIGN
Allies, However, Not Likely to
Permit Reservations in
Austrian Treaty.
COUNCIL IN SESSION

Paris, Sept. ga. P.)-The Ru-
manian delegation has sent a note
to the peace conference declaring
that it's intention was to sign the
Austrian treaty with reservations
The supreme council this morning
took the Rumanian note under con-
sideration. 1t appears unlikely such
signature will be permitted.
Premier Clemenceau presided al
the council meeting. which also dis
cussed the German reply to the allied
demand for suppression of Article
LXI Of the German constitution pro
viding for Austrian representation in
the German parliament. The discus
sion of this sub ject was not contem-
plated today. The council will take II
up again tomorrow.
While the council probably will
spend several days on the reply to
the German note before completing
it, 1t is considered certain that the
answer will be extremely firm in
tone, takinB the position that Ger
many Is violating the treaty before
1T becomes effective, thereby render
ing it impossible for the allies to
ratify it.
PreNls5 y advices from Paris or
the subject of thH probable attitude
of the council with regard to the
German constitutional ulestion re-
, t1ected general oTasi5fr etsfffopg Nh,
conference delegates that the German
reply declaring the disputed article
would remain in the constitution
without legal force" was highly eva.
sive and that the conference probabl,
would insist upon actual elimination
OF the section from the constitu-
ton.
Rumania's objection to the Austrian
treaty. it has been Indicated lies in
the clause guaranteeing protection to
minority nationalities in the territories
detached from the former Austrian en-
pire. Serbia likewise objects to this
clause
Considerable differences of opinion
are known to have existed among the
members of the cupreme council re-
garding the action to be taken con-
corning the German note, some mem
bers favoring the ignoring by the
council of the German reply to the
allied communicate on the ground
that the reply was evasive, and pro-
ceeding further into Germany should
the Germans fail to indicate a will
linsness to alter their constitution.
This view, however, was overruled
and a reply to the Germans probably
will be sent shortly, possibly tomor-
row. Should the Germans desire an
extension Of the time beyond the date
originally fixed, Sept. II, to effect the
change in the constitution demanded,
the extension is likely to be granted
them.

U. $. TO Issue Stamps
For ,. IS Per Cent Beer

WASHINGTON. April 19.-Thc Bu-
reau of Internal Revenue to-day is said
to have reversed ruling made by
Commissioner Roper last week and be.
gun issuance of tax stamps to be af-
fixed to beer containing 2M per cent
alcohol
The Collector OF Internal Revenue in
New York City, it is said has been in
structed by Commissioner Roper to
sell stamps for the beer pending
a decision.
Stamps heretofore had been refused
by revenue collectors. acting on in
structions from Washington, on the
grounds that manufacture Of the beer
was illegal under the one-half of per
cent limit set by Presidential procla-
nation.
Beer containing the larger percent

revenue stamps deposited with bank
ers, pending decision of the Su-
preme Court on the meaning of the
term Notwithstanding" The manu-
facture of Notwithstanding" bever-
ages is legal under subsequent Presi-
Dental proclamation.
The decision of the bureau OF in
ternal revenue was said to have been
based on an opinion rendered by At
torney General Palmer to the effect
that rendering the money by the brew
ers was equivalent to purchasing the
stamps, and the actual sale of the
stamps would not prejudice or alter
the test cases now in the courts. and
would not relieve the brewers of any
sponsibility.
As result Of to-dsy's developments
it was regarded here as evident that
although the manufacture of beer con-
tanning 2% per cent alcohol will be in
no way restricted. the brewers will
be forced to stand the consequences
if the manufacture Of their product
later is declared Illegal.

Mr.. McAdoo said that on his way

the Mississippi he found nothing but
enthusiasm for the loan. He did not
speak in the Middle West.
What is the sentiment Of the West

asked.
There is. throughout the territory

Another parade of New York soldiers
was announced last night. 1t will be

by Colonel William B. Parsons, the
first American unit TO sustain battle

Major C. r. Hulsart, of BAT Madison
Avenue, former captain of Company
C, of the 11th, announced last night
that the entire regiment was now en-
route home, and that programme of
entertainments, with parade as q
climax, would begin upon the arrival
of the last contingent, next Saturday.
Major Hulsart, who recently returned
from France, said that the regiments 8

heroic action in dropping railroad tools
and grasping rifles when the Germans
began rolling back General Byng's
British force at Cambria totalled about
eighty, of whom twenty were killed
and twelve taken peisoner.
The first contingent is expected
Tuesday, aboard the Santa Theresa.
This comprises Companies B and C.
The rest of the regiment, with Colonel
Parsons, is due on the Chicago Sat-
urday.
Speaking of the regiments exploit
at Cambria, Major Hulsart said:
"Accidents on the roads leading to
the front were numerous and traffi c
was more congested than in the busi-
est hours on Fifth Avenue. Platforms
for the unloading of 500 tanks were
constructed.
"The regiments orders were to con-
struct a railroad following General
Byng's advance. 1t was here that the
Hlndenburg Line was broken by the
British at almost the same point where
the 18th Division covered itself with
glory in breaking it second time.

ChateauThierry
Hero,W ounded,
Here Penniless
Irumpeter Who Sounded
Charge for That Fight Is
Found Pedling in Order
to Exc Out a Living

Donald M. Douglas was q trumpeter
in the 9Th Marines. 1t was he who on
that memorable and never to be for
gotten first day of June, 1918, sounded
the trumpet which sent the Marines
into battle at Chateau Thierry. His
bugle was "never to call retreat' The
Marines, with Douglas and other trum-
peters in the lead, met the German
horde head on and, as history has re-
corded, saved the day and the war
for the Allies. To-day Douglas is in
this city, and, although he won the
Croix ID Guerre, he paid for it. He
is physical wreck and penniless.
His case, probably one Of the most
pathetic on the records of the War
Department, was brought to light
through the police and Red Cross in
Investigating a note sent by a woman
living at 271 Central Park West. The
letter told of his plight and his dire
need. He has been canvassing apart
ments along Central Park West dur
ing the last two weeks, selling coupons
Tor downtown photograph gallery.
City Detectives Investigate
His story aroused the sympathy of
one woman, who, after purchasing a
coupon from him for $3.50, decided to
write to the Red Cross. The Red
Cross, fearing that the man might be
an impostor, because there had been
reports of q number Of uniformed men
abusing their service, communicated
with the military authorities. They, in
turn, got in touch with Detectives
Brady and Daily, Of the West Forty
seventh Street station
The detectives visited the house
where Douglas was staying, at 419
West Forty-lifth Street, Yesterday.
They found him physically incapaci-
tated, with fissure in his right thigh
from shrapnel wound large enough
to place ones hand in. From Douglas
"a East Twenty third Street, they
learned that he was penniless and a
wreck, trying to exc out living at
catch jobs while awaiting his dis
charge and s247 the government owes
him for back pay and allowances.
Douglas told Lieutenant Miller at
the marine recruiting office that he
had been soliciting orders along Cen
trail Park West, "trying to earn a liv-
ing legltlmately while awaiting my
discharge from the marines"
Story One of HARDSHIP
According to the lieutenant, Doug
lass story reveals how he enlisted in
the Marine Corps on April A, 1916, and
went over in September, 1917; how
he was wounded at Chateau Thicrry
when caught in barrage; how he
had gone through the worst kind of
hardships during the first thirteen
days of that memorable month of
June; how he had shifted from one
hospital to another and had finally
landed IN Philadelphia from Brest on
the sympathy of the officers at the
recruiting station and they promised
to DO all they could to expedite his
dlscharge and to help obtain his money
for him. S'

lied, Will Be Held Week
Ending May Z; Entire
Division Here by May 2

More than ten thousand men of the
77th Division are now at sea, home
ward bound. Barring accidents or bad
weather, all or most of them should
be in port next Saturday, April 26. By
May the entire division probably will
be home, and the divisional review. au-
thorized yesterday by Secretary Baker
in cable to the War Department from
Brest, will be held during the week
ending May 7.
The troops already embarked COM
prise the 305th and 3O6th Infantry reg
iments and the 3O5th and 3O6th Ma
chine Gun Battalions, complete; head
quarters detachment Of the 153d Bri-
gade, the divisional postal unit and the
theatrical unit.
The 305th Infantry and the two ma
chine gun battalions sailed yesterday
on the big liner Aquitania, according
to cable message received yesterday
by the 77th advance party from Maj
Drew McKenna, assistant administra-
tive officer Of the divisional staff at
Brest. The other units sailed Friday
on the Mount Vernon among the con-
tingent of $4,000 troops of various
divisions embarked that day from
Pontenezen camp
1859 on the Mount Vernon
There are 145 officers and 1924 men
on the Mount Vernon. All are to be
discharged at Camp Upton, except
ing eight officers and ffty-thrce men
of the 3o6th Infantry, who are to go to
Camp Dix, and ffty-six officers and
1927 men who are to be mustered out
at other camps. These were replace
ment troops.
General March. chief of the General
Staff, is due here early this week to
arrange for prompt deharkation and
review of the men, in accordance with
Secretary Bakers instructions. 1t is
the intention to entrain all replace
ment troops for their home camps i'm
mediately after the divisional review,
so that Camp Upton may not be un-
duly congested.
Loan Director Responsible
Secretary Bakers message to the
War Department was made public as
result of an inquiry by l.. B. Franklin,
director Of the war loan organization
of the Treasury Department at Wash
ington, who asked if the 77th Division
could not be allowed to parade as a
stimulus to the loan campaign here.
Replying to Mr.. Franklin, Assistant
Secretary of War Keprel said
81 am glad to be able to tell you that
Secretary Baker, since his arrival in
France, has cabled that the 77th Divi-
sion is scheduled to leave Brest be-
tween April II and % inclusive, and
that its several units will arrive in
New York within period Of six days,
making it possible to have the division
parade. This is very gratifying to the
War Department, as it will doubtless
be to the people of New York City and
to members of the DIVISION
81 hope that the parade will be a
great success, and that, incidentally, it
Will prove of value to the Victory Lib
erty Loan campaign"
The Aquitania is fast liner, and
should outdistance the ship which
sailed Friday But officers of the port
of debarkation said that the ship prob
ably would take eight days to land the
troops as closely together as possible.
Camp Mills had been definitely
chosen for quartering the division
prior to the divisional review.
