BULLETIN
Special to the Ledger.

p. NJ.
PARIS, Jan. S.-The allied peace
ENJOYS will hold their first joint meet
ing tomorrow.
One Paris newspaper states that
the preliminary peace conference will
last three months. President Wilson
however, plans to return to the States
by February y.
The Paris paper says: "The pre-
liminary treaty will contain, first, a
clause by which the Entente accepts a
league of nations; second, the amount
of indemnity payable by Germany and
the methods of payment, and, third,
a definition of the new frontiers.
"These are the principal chapters.
The preliminary discussions promise
to be intricate and it would not be as
tonishing if the deliberations are long
because they will deal with the entire
map of Europe and will evolve the
clauses of definite peace treaty"

DEPLORES DOUCHBOY
CRITICISM OF FRENCH
Relief Worker Ascribes II to
Misunderstanding.

Criticisms of the French people which
she has heard attributed to many re-
turned soldiers were deplored yesterday
by Miss Clara Perry Of Boston, who has
pa ssed two and half years abroad as
ambulance driver and relief worker.
II am very sorry about this spirit"
she said: II have only been back here
few days. but in that time I have
been told the most extraordinary things
I cannot help but believe that the SOL
diers who criticise the French people do
so because they have not become suffi-
ciently acquainted with them to appre-
ciate them.
This is very disappointing. because
have lived among the French for so long
a time, and know with what cordially
and what splendid spirit they hailed the
Americans. This talk have heard here
comes from the most unfortunate mis-
understanding"
Miss Perry has been active in connec-
ton with the care OF war orphans at the
Chateau de Chavaniac, birthplace of
Lafayette. situated in the Department or
Auvergne. and she is arranging for the
further development and continuance Of
the relief, work which Is carried on at
that place by the French Heroes Lafay-
cite Memorial Fund, West Forty-fifth
street.
That organization plans to convert
this old chateau OF the Lafayette family
into a museum to contain historical rec
ords of the wars in which the French
Republic ak1 our own have been in
volved.

DUTIES ON LUXURIES
PASS MILLION MARK
Imports Make Neu Record in
Port of NeD York.

Importers of luxuries evidently have
expectations OF disposing of more than
the average quantity of fine things this
year judging from the recent receipts
for duties collected at the Custom Hohse.
For instance on Tuesday the receipts
were the biggest in any day in recent
years and the largest since Collector
Newton assumed office on October /,
1917, reaching the towering figures of
Sl.0+4,Ss6. The daily averages In the
winter and spring months of the present
year have been less than 100000.
Practically all Of the duties were
paid on articles of luxury. such as dia-
monds, precious stones. watches, tobac-
co, embroidery. linens and SO FORTH
said the Collector, land IL is apparent
that some people are still rich enough
and ambitious enough to buy the orna-
mental as well as the useful"
Most of the diamonds and other pre-
cious stones on which the bulk of the
duties were paid are from Holland and
importers paid on these articles alone
S325, $500. Stones from England con-
Chinaware from France paid $1S.937
and pearls from the same country paid
s15.432.20. Switzerland helped to swell
the receipts with 5000 on watches
and $1s,195s0 on silks; Ireland's con-
tribution was s17,s13.35. derived from
embroidery and fax and cotton goods
Italy paid s5.7sS.S7 on antique and sill

Half an hor~ later Renkell complained

Gated. As consequence Mrs. Hannah

EASY TO FIND HIM.
SAYS G. w. PERKINS


George w. Perkins. in a statement
Issued yesterday. characterized as RI
diculous and untrue the story printed In
yesterday mornings newspapers that
process servers had great difficulty In
locating him for the purpose Of serving
summons in the libel suit which has
been fled against him by Edward
Hatch, Jr.
In referring to the alleged difficulty OF
serving the papers upon him, Mr.. Per-
kins said:
THE latter cannot possibly be true.
The statement that someone tried to
serve the papers on me In December
when sailed for Europe but could not
find me on the ship is ridiculous. as
stood at the head Of the gangplank talk
ing to various friends until the ship
left and anyone could have found me.
'"rhe statement that various attempts
have been made by detectives during
the last three weeks to serve me at my
home or my office also Is absurd. My
Office Is and always has been open to all
corners and as j have been at my once
practically every day since my return
from Europe. nearly two months ago, no
one should have had the slightest diff
Guilty In locating me- AS q matter OF
fact. no one at my home or at my ofiice
has seen anyone who wanted to serve
me with papers in Mr.. Hatch's suit"
Mr.. Perkins also reviewed the con-
troversy between himself and Mr.
Hatch. of which the libel suit Is an out
growth. Mr.. Hatch. he says. began a
campaign against the Palisades Park
last summer and demanded not only that
bathing stop but that the Park Com
mission should forbid the use of the
lower part of the park for camping and
picnic purposes. As president of the
Park Commission. Mr.. Perkins opposed
any reduction in the availability of the
