Paris, May Various lesser de-
tails of the peace treaty were taken
up today by the council Of three,
among them the question OF rae
captured German cables.
With the Kiao-Chau problem dis
posed of, the Adriatic question Is
the only highly important problem
remaining unsettled.
(By the Associated Press.1
Possible delay in the handing or
the peace terms to the German
delegates at Versailles is indicated
in late advices from Paris. The
function may have to go over TO
next week while questions as to the
powers of the enemy's representa-
tives and their qualifications as
spokesman for Bavaria, are beng
looked into. Today the Germans
turned in their credentials for eX-
animation.
All in Readiness.
Versailles, Wednesday, April 30
(By the Associated Press 1.-The
spacious dining room of the Hotel
TIiau0n today received its peace
congress installation three long
tables in horseshoe form. covered
with the traditional green cloth Of
diplomacy and games Of chance.
The installation is imposing in the
size of each Of the side tables, which
extend some fifty feet through the
room. At the head OF the apartment
is a table about 35 feet long at
which the representatives of the
great powers will be seated with
President Poincaire or Premier
Clemenceau in the center.
Inside the horseshoe is another
table covered with red plush and IN
the space between one side Of the
horseshoe and the windows is a sim
liar table. In the window openings
are smaller tables for secretaries.
Date Not Announced.
This is the scene for the handing
over of the terms of peace. The ex-
act date of the ceremony has not
been announced. The French gov
ernment however, has carefully alb
stained from RAINING the day and Z
is a fair presumption that this is
due not only to the problem wheth-
er the intervening time will be long
enough to verify the credentials of
the German phenipOtentiaries but
also the uncertainty that the draft
of the treaty can be completed by
Saturday. Questions relative to the
adequacy of the powers of the Ger
man delegates and their qualifca-
tions to speak for Bavaria, may de-
lay the handing over of the treaty.
Germans Not Noticed.

GUESTS ENJOY
GOOD PROGRAM;
MANY PRESENT

The entertainment and dance ar
ranged by Nenana Igloo, No. II,
Pioneers of Alaska, in honor of La
Dor Day, was very largely attended
by the oldtimers and their lady
guests, and the evening proved one
of the most enjoyable of the season,
the program being above the av-
Ierage, the lunch good, and the dance
all that could be desired. The af-
fair took place at Union hall last
night, Immediately following the
conclusion of the regular monthly
business meeting of the igloo.
The hall was well filled when the
program started, shortly after nine,
and the numbers were greatly en-
joyed. Following the conclusion of
the program, lunch was served and
the floor was cleared for the dance,
which lasted until about one, the
floor being almost crowded with the
many who remained to trip the
right fantastic to the tuneful strains
of the Berggren orchestra.

lowing numbers:

REQUESTED
TO REGISTER NAMES

So that the school board may
ascertain the probable number of
children who will attend the Frank
lin X. Lane school during the COM
ing term, a request has been made
that parents of children OF schoo
age register the names of the chill
dren at the Townsite office, with
Director Carl Schmidt.
This is important, since it will
be impossible for the board to make
definite arrangements for the COM
ing term until it is known approx
mately how many children will be
enrolled at the commencement of
the term.
1t is believed that the number OF
pupils will be about the same as
last term, but it is possible that
some of the children now here will
leave town before the end of the
season, and there also may be new
arrivals. These are points the board
desires to clear up Immediately, and
it is for that reason that parents
are asked to register the names of
their children of school age imme-
diately.
A prompt compliance with the re-
quest will materially assist the board
in its work.

LATE STEAMERS
TO LAND LARGE
LOCAL TONNAGE

The Nenana waterfront promises
to be the scene of great activity
during the remainder of the season.
Shipments of supplies for the Alas
kan Engineering commission, which
should have been on the road weeks,
lif not months, ago, are now en-
route, some of them on the river,
some at St. Michael, more on the
ocean, and still more at Seattle,
awaiting shipment. The shipments
will aggregate fully 1900 tons, and
may exceed the 1000 mark, count
! ing late deliveries for others than
the commission.
As result of this end-of-the-
season freight movement, every
steamer operating on the lower Yu-
kon will be compelled to work over
time to get the shipments to Ne
mana before the freezeup, and when
the goods begin arriving, there will
be something doing on the local
waterfront pretty much all the time
until the end of the season. and
then some
The packet Louise is now enroute
up the Yukon with a heavy tow,
this being the first appearance of
the boat on the river this season.
She is taking the place of the Julia
B, which has been laid away for the
season because of the decision of
the company to use oil wherever
possible throughout the remainder of
the summer. The Louise is an oil
burner, while the Julia B is not.
As soon as the oil can be de-
livered on the Yukon, where need
ed, all the company steamers oper-
ating out of St. Michael and be-
tween Dawson and Nenana will dis
continue the use of wood as fuel,
including the Alaska and the Yu-
kon. This change in the use of
fuel was made possible by the de-
livery a St Michael of a large
quantity of fuel OIL Previous TO
this time there was not tank
steamer available for the voyage
North, owing TO the demand for oil
deliveries in Europe.
: The use of oil will greatly facili-
tate the movement of freight, since
it will eliminate frequent stops at
wood piles along the river, a seri-
Gus handicap in the aggregate, at
this season of the year.
The Louise has approximately $50
tons of freight in tow, the. greater
part of it being for Nenana. The
steamship Victoria is due at St.
Michael from Seattle with 400 tons
more, and other shipments between
Seattle and St. Michael and enroute
down the Yukon will bring the total
we'll above the 1900 mark, for Ne
naa. In addition to this, there will
be the usual late shipments for
Fairbanks and other points along
the river, which will add consider
ably to the congestion.

business at the local Office Of the
American-Yukon Navigation compa-

PORT MAY BE PREJUDI-

The Copenhagen correspondent of
the Forward reports that he had seen
draft of the report of Sir Stuart
Samuel to be presented shortly to the
British Government on his investiga-
tons in Poland. The correspondent
says that the report will, in many in
stances, be prejudicial to Jewish in
terests in Poland. The report recon-
mends that Jews need not have sepa-
rate schools for their children, declar
ing that the Polish schools are gov
erned by spirit of tolerance and they
are treated as equals with the Polish
children. He also recommended to
the Jews to submit themselves to the
Sunday laws Of the land, saying that

Ten million dollars is the minimizing
which the Zionist Organization of
America will endeavor to raise in this
country beginning January 18th, by an
appeal to Jews and non-Jews alike,
for the purchase of large tracts of
land in Palestine and the preparation
of the country i'll every way for the
masses of Jews who, according tofau
thoritative reports, are eager to mi
CRATE thither from Russia, Poland,
Ga1icia, Roumania and other pogrom-
ridden countries of Eastern Europe.
The mass-desire on the part of the
Jews to escape to Palestine from
lands of persecution everywhere, be-
fore that country is prepared to re-
ceive them, is so intense as to make
the task of restraining the impending
immigration most difficult problem
for the Zionist Organization.

Whereas the panel on the "Syna-

liberties than those enjoyed by the
Jews of England and America. The
report, however, does condemn in the
strongest terms the pogroms against

very strong and suggests that the

JEWISH DICTIONARIES
ARRIVE FROM PALES-
TINE.
New York (By I. J..P. B.)-This
week $50 Jewish legionnaires
reached New York, among them
many well-known Jewish journalists
and writer's, including Mr.. H. l..
Gordon, the musical critic Baron,
and the novelist Bruches.
The legionnaires were welcomed
at the pier by committee OF the
American Red Mogen David, at the
head of which was Mrs. Romano
Spivacke, and also by committee
from the Zionist Organization of
America.
This is the last large group of
legionnaires to return. Only a few
more are still waiting to come back
to the United States, and the rest
will remain in Palestine, some as
colonists in the new Balfouria which
the Zion Commonwealth is found
ing, and the others as journalists, So
cial workers, and in similar capaci-
ties.
The spirit of these legionnaires
who have just returned is noticeably
different from that of the groups
previously arriving, in that these
newcomers are most enthusiastic
about Palestine, and are satisfied
with the achievements of the Jew
ish legion. Practically all OF them
state that they intend soon to go
back to Palestine, and that they
have only come to settle their per-
sonal or family affairs.
