Fight or Parley?
Is Red Dilemma
Facing ENJOYS

Paris. March 2o.-The Peace
Conference now is confront cd
with this dilemma: 1t must
either negotiate with the Boil
sheviki or constitute a definite

barbed wire and all the other
grim indispensables of real
warfare, from the Black Sea
to the Baltic.
Lloyd George favors the
first scheme, while the French
military leaders favor the sec

Wilson who must be the
eventual umpire"
French militarists assert
that the Poles, Czechs and

Arnisfce Kept
Bomb Rocket
Out of Action
Huns Might Have Been
Bombarded for Distance
of 200 Miles by Self-Pro-
pelling Invention of Ameri-
can Scientist.

Worcester. Mass, March 29.-Had
the world war lasted much longer
there probably would have been ad-
ded to the long list of instruments
of death a rocket which is said to
have a range OF 200 miles and is
capable of being projected vertically
to a height OF seventy miles.
This rocket is the invention of
DR.. Robert H. Goddard. professor OF
physics at Clark University here,
who completed hrs invention under
the patronage of the War Depart
ment, the Smithsonian Institution
and Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
The new rocket is built on the prin-
ciples OF gas engine. and is propelled
by cartridges which are exploded In
rapid succession by specially de-
signed timing device. The instrument
IS cylindrical in shape and constructed
of thin steel. At the lower end is the
combustion chamber which opens into
a nozzle such as is used on turbines.
On Gas Engine Principles.
This opening is much smaller than
lne CyllnueT. IhuS the explosion OF
the cartridges in the combustion
chamber exerts a terrific pressure
which by passing through the increas-
ing diameter OF the nozzle. allows the
gases to expand and thereby forms
the means of propulsion.
The cartridges are fed into the
combustion chamber from a storage
compartment and are placed in the
firing chamber by clockwork. This
mechanism may be adjusted to time
the frequency of fire and thereby
control the range OF the rocket.
Scientists who have examined the
invention declare that rocket
weighting thirty pounds NAV be
propelled vertically to a height of
seventy miles and for a distance
of at least 200 miles. 1t is under
stood that the War Department was
interested in the invention mas
much as is was planned to place
high explosives in the head of the
rocket and use it for bombardment
work. The rocket is fired by its
own propelling force, no gun being
needed to start it.

At present Western Europe
France, Belgium, Italy, England,
Germany. Spain (to a more or
less extent) and Portugal have
abandoned the individualistic
definition of private property now
held in the United States, the
definition which declares that
property is the legal possession
of goods; and property in West
ern Europe may be defined as
such goods as one holds that are
not affected by their public use.
For Western Europe is now def
nitely in control of the Socialists.
They admit that private property
exists, but the Socialists limit the
scope of private property. And

On military problems concerning

their opposition to the proposal for
establishing an interallied line by
linking up the armies from the

According to American opinion
here. such a military display might
check the BOlshevik armies. but il
would not stop the Bolshevik idea
with the result that the allies might

WILSON MAY GO BACK
viii Return to Peace Meet if
Necessary.
President Plans to Address Congress
and Will Explain Why He Is
Needed at Paris.

Paris, Jan 30.-Much as President
Wilson still hopes tofavoid a second
trip to Europe it begins to look as if
the trend of peace conference affairs
would cause him to.feel impelIed to
recross the Atlantic in the early
spring. The presidents friends here
say he is prepared to answer any crit
icisms of an intended return to France
with facts that he will lay before con-
gress in the addresses which he prob
ably will deliver.
Recent statements purporting to an
nounce definitely that the president
had arranged to GENE back to Paris
after going TO Washington in Febru-
air:and even giving the date of his
sailing on his return "trip, We're found
ed mo- itarisss
formation. The fact is the president,
while still hoping another trip to Eu-
rope will be unnecessary, is waiting to
see what the remaining Is days of his
stay in France win bring forth before
deciding ON his course.
But the president from the first has
been holding himself ready to return
if he thought it necessary, and with
in the last day or so he has told Off
Gals in his confidence that he was
impressed with the feeling that 1t
would be his duty to return and that
he was beginning to think he could not
escape it.
The president expects to sail from
Brest Oil the steamer George Washing
ton, now on her way to France, some
time between February 10 and Febru-
ary Is, going direct to the United
States. The steamer probably will
take the southern route, which it fol
lowed on its way over, to avoid bad
weather
1t is realized here that President
Wilson'S arrival home with plans for
departing for Europe again would
bring up the question of an extra SEES
sion Of the new congress with Repub-
lican maiorities in both houses. The
best available opinion here is that if
an extra session be thought inevitable
the president would call it before his
return to France, probably setting the
date ahead to some time in June, ex-
pecting to finish the business of the
peace conference in time to return TO
Washington and be in the White
House when the new congress assem-
bled

RUSS POLICIES GIVEN
(. Declaration Is Delivered to the
Allied Nations.
MuscovItes say Principles Of Old RE-
gine Win Not fseturn--Anarchy
Must Be Wiped Out.

Paris. Jan, GOA declaration has
been issued and delivered q the allied
III
4 Is called Ii conference Of Russian am
bassadors and business men IN Paris
The declaration says the object of the
conference was to defend the rights
and interests of Russia by "solemnly
proclaiming, in the name and by the
order of the united governments of
Russia, the principles by which the ma
tion's policy will be inspired"
These principles are:
81. The new legal order must be
found on the sovereignty of the people,
who will exercise their power through
organizations of their own choice,
which will be responsible to the people
and will guarantee to them the un-
alienability of the sovereignty.
"2. The difference is to be made be-
tween the peoples prerogatives and
class privileges. There will be equal
ity for all in the eye of the law and
free access to all the degrees of the
political and social scale.
"3. The rapid development of pro-
ducing forces. The encouragement of
all private initiative and all measures
likely to attract capital in the coun-
try. At the same time the state must
adopt all measures to safeguard for
the laboring classes all the economic
and social experience accumulated by
international practice.
"a. The most important question
must be the settlement of the agri-
cultural problem, which, to obtain So
cial peace, must be solved in the inter-
est of the large masses.
5. During the revolution disorder
ly movement occurred on the part Of
peasants who took possession Of the
land. This exceptional situation de-
mands exceptional means for dealing
with 1t, but to return to the ancient
state of affairs is impossible. Peas
ants must own more land than hither-
to, but for the present state of an
archy there must be substituted some
legal basis"
The declaration concludes by say
ing:
Russia pledges herself to fulfill all
obligations arising from treaties she
concludes, but claims the right to be
Unidentified by the enemy for damages
sustained during the war which caused
her heavy sacrifices"
