alton that the German blockade
should be continued indefinitely.
Presence Demanded in Paris
More important demands, how
ever, have required the President s
continued presence in Paris. 1t is
regarded as necessary that the as
sociated Powers shall present solid
front when the delegates of the
Central Powers are admitted into
the conference. Otherwise, it is
felt in some quarters, the enemy de-
feated on the field might succeed by
cunning and intrigue in causing dis
sension among the associated Pow
ers and in getting better terms for
themselves by offering tempting al
liances. The main efforts of the
conference leaders, therefore,, are be-
ing directed toward tn consolidation
of their own forces and gaining ad-
hesion to the fundamental principles
which are to govern the future re-
lations of states.
Solves Territorial Problem
A great deal has been done to
settle the various territorial dis
putes by mediation and in endeav-
oring to have such disputes submit
ted to the Society of Nations when
it is organized. A notable success
in this direction has been in the
conflict between Italy and Jugo-
Slavia over territory in the eastern
Adriatic.
AS these difficulties are over
come, however, others appear in the
shape of demands. by some elements
for the imposition of harsher terms
on Germany than are contained in
the present armistice agreement,
not only for the present but also
for the distant future. Some of these
proposals are that Germany should
be kept blockaded indefinitely. even
after the signing of the final peace
treaty, in order to permit France
and Belgium to rehabilitate their in
jured industries so as to be able to
compete with Germany in the
worlds markets. The question has
been raised, however, whether they
may not be regarded as irreconcil-
able with that part of the primary
peace plan in which it is declared
that no economic discrimination
shall be permitted
Civilians to Assert Themselves
1t was indicated at Yesterdays
meeting of the Supreme War Coun-
Gil that the civilian elements had
decided that the time had come to
assert themselves, and issues deyel-
oped at that melting will be consid-
bered at the next gathering without
the presence of the military lead
ers.
Simultaneously with this work, the
special commission on a Society OF
Nations will be adding the finishing
touches to the great prospect which
it is expected, will be completed to-
day in readiness for the next plehary
meeting of the conferees, which
probably will be held early next
week.

ton it was thought that a rate of
four mills would provide sufficient
revenue for the year, but when the
Commissioners reviewed the extern
sive road and bridge program which
confronts them this year, it was de-
cided to only lower the rate one-half
n mill. This provides about $4,000
more than with four-mill rate.
The Commissioners based the es-
timated revenue at four and one
half mills on an assessed valuation
of property of slightly more than
SEE, 100000. The possibility of still
more revenue being available should
there be big increase in coal land
assessments was not even considered
now as the fight over the valuation
of the coal fields may extend over
many weeks before it is settled fl
nally.
In the 1919 appropriations $35,-

sioners for bridge building and re-
pairs. Some of the bridges which
may be built include new structures
at Sycamore and Shanois streets

east of the Susquehanna river and
at Sand Beach.
At the four-milI rate Controller
Henry w. Cough allowed $4,000 for
roads, but the Commissioners de-
cided the amount would be insuffici-
ent and set aside $4,000 of the ad-
ditional $4,000 for road work, dis
tributing most of the balance be-
tween the contingent and mothers
