would be back in Paris by the begin
ming of the week, and Nj. Clemenceau
was expected back from a brief vaca-
ton at the same time. Mr.. Lloyd
George arrived in the French capital
Saturday. Conferences among the
representatives of the allies were TO
begin at once. II seems probable that
the number of delegates to the peace
conference will be enlarged so that
experts in certain lines may sit at tile
board when the things they know most
about are being discussed. Great Brit
aims delegates include Lloyd George,
Balf0ur and Bonar Law, and among
the advisers on special matters are
such men as Viscount Hardinge, Sir
William G.. TyrrelI, Sir Louis Mallet.
Sir Esme Howard, Sir Ralph Paget
Sir Eyre Grove and Lord Robert Cecil
AN imposing list of truly big men
thoroughly trained in diplomacy and
statecraft.
The numerous and complicated
questions that the peace conference
must take up and settle have given rise
TO the suggestion that the congress
should be a continuing body SO that flu
ture developments might be taken in
TO consideration and matters decided
that are now too haZy for clear vision.
If this plan were adopted, the forma-
ton of the league of nations might not
be SO pressing a question as il is now
considered by President Wilson and
many others who support his views

THAT SICK MAN FROM SAN

ANTONIO.
Certain histories of the Cuban War
for Independence speak OF The Battle
of San Antonio de los Banos." They
relate how 1,000 patriots captured the
village after a gallant and sanguinary
resistance by its Spanish garrison;
how they released the prisoners in
the local Jail, replenished their own
supplies. and then retired in the face
of enemy reinforcements. 1t is quite
stirring story to read and 1t has
but one fault, a fault. by the way.
not uncommon in histories-it is main
ly untrue.
In the first place. the engagement
was in no sense a battle. but merely
raid. The number of troops en-
gased was. perhaps, one-hfth of the
generons total ascribed by the his
torians, and as a military Tnanoeuver
1t served no purpose whatsoever. That
the Cubans delivered a spirited attack
there is no denying. As a matter of
fact, the engagement was characteri-
zed by an abandon. by a lack of eau
ton, truly sensa tional. the reason be-
ing that the Insurrectos were half
starved and stormed the town much
as hungry hoboes attack a lunch
counter. Nevertheless, since the AFFAIR
had direct bearing upon the fortunes
Of several people connected with this
story, 1t is. perhaps. worth relating.

'In these times when the spirit

portunity to publicly proclaim the
objects and purposes Of the United

There are many localities where
