[By William Philip Simms. United

PARIS, Jan. 23.-Punishment OF the
kaiser and his associates was formally
discussed by the supreme war council
today The belief prevailed in cer-
tain quarters that the council will
adopt some form of program suggest
ed by the American delegation in this
regard-appointmen of special
commission TO investigate thoroughly
the culpability Of all those responsible
for the war from the kaiser down so
that none might escape.
1t was expected that the various
forms of punishment to be meted out
will be taken up simultaneously, that
nothing may be overlooked In the way
OF affording warning for future po-
tential war makers.
In connection with the discussion
of responsibility and punishment for
individuals, the penalty for the Ger
man nation was also considered lr
was now accepted that indemnities
will be limited to reparation for dam
ages, but the huge sum they are ex-
pected to amount to, win constitute
a national penalty, nevertheless,
Other matters considered by the
Steering committee" were interna-
tional labor Legislation, the procedure
under which territorial questions will
be taken up and the international
status of ports, waterways AMI rail-
roads.
The most vital propositions to be
dealt with by the delegates apparent
ly were being rounded into shape for
discussion by the general peace con
gress Saturday. Aside from the Rus
sian situation and the league of ma
tions, practically every important
problem was debated today. Russian

Of selfdetermination.
The associated powers are expected

socially
The Russians win be expected to

for the aid Of the associated powers.
These will include immediate cessa
ton of hostilities within the Rus

representative basis and arrange
ment for the payment OF Russia's ma
tional debts.
The Russians will also be asked
to remove all economic barriers, that

Portuguese officials here declared
that all direct communication with
their country had been severed. The
only advices reaching here were ru-

Madrid.
The whereabouts OF Manuel wers

day said he was aboard steamship
of Lisbon awaiting favorable Op-
portunity to land.
The Portuguese legation was with.
out information regarding the insilr-
reCtion. Press dispatches were eager
ly read at the legation. These mes
sages called attention to the fact that
several ministers supporting the mon
archist revolution have the same
names as ministers who served under
President Faes, who was assassinat-
ed. They are not believed to be the
same men, however.
OmcialS at the legation expected the
situation to be cleared UP within TWEEN

Speaking of bread pudding. with a
little care it can be made so it will
be your family's favorite dessert, and
they will ask for it as often as they
do ice cream. To make it as it should
be, put two cups of stale crumbs that
have been rolled very fine. in bowl
and cover with one quart of hot milk.
Let them stand for a half an hour.
Melt two squares Of chocolate in a
little saucepan, add a third of cup
of sugar to it, and dip off enough
milk from the top of the crumbs to
mix it well. Then add another third
of a cup of sugar, a half-teaspoonful
Of salt, and the yolks of two and
white of one egg, slightly beaten.
Flavor with vanilla, and If you want
it particularly fine, add a cup of
chopped dates. Pour into buttered
pudding dish and bake in a very slow
oven for an hour. When it is done,
spread the top thinly with jam, then
cover with meringue made of the
other egg white beaten till stiff and
powered sugar. Put in the oven until
it is Drowned. Serve hot or cold.

WHAT CAN Be DONE

Most people do not think of vast
ing a crumb of bread these days. Mr..
Hoover taught us that we couldn't
do it with a clear conscience, but we
usually use it for the tops of creamed
dishes, to roll croquettes in or for
the mueh-hated bread puddings. We
do not know that there are many de
licious dishes that can be made with
the crumbs. every bit as good as if
we hadn't put leftover crumb in
them
