high civilization and culture from a

Fail to Reconsider.
An attempt to reconsider the bill
came to grief.
Allen of Gage, made a motion that
tie bill be submitted to a competent
lawyer to go over its various fea-
lures and suggest some amendments.
There was considerable debate in
which Foster of Douglas said there
was much in favor of the motion in
asmuch as the bill overlooked the
important feature of containing a
clause compelling the contractor
who would erect the building to
give 4 sufficient bond to guarantee
the faithftil performance of the con-
tract.
Traeeweil of Cherry, said: ut
comes with poor grace to ask leave
to have this bill amended or rewrit-
ten now and the man who raises
objection at this time does 50 with
out good motives.
The motion was lost.

MORN HILL AGAIN
 USED AS BIG CAMP
Battle Americans Being Re- CeiVed at This British Station

Winchester, Eng, April i (Corres- pondence of the Associated Press). ).- Morn Hill, one of the huge l., .litary reservations on the heights overlook Ing this picturesque old city, is again an American camp. During the war IL was the principal assembly ground in England for American legions on the way to the war. Now it is the clearing station for thousands of bat tle-worn Americans who are on the way home. They are the men who fought with the British forces.
 All the far-tlrng armies of the en- pire are contributing to this assem- blaze. The Americans are coming chiefly from France and the occupa- ton forces in Germany, but large numbers are making longer journeys. Some have served in Palestine, some in Egypt, some in South Africa and others in India. Many are still in the East and others are with the British forces in various parts of Rus sia. It is reckoned that it will be six or eight months before all can be brought to England.

The men, both privates were charged with desertiOn in addt- ton to eight other offenscs connected with their runaway trip.
 According 10 the testimony brought out at the court martial, both men spoke a little German and, after going ahead of the advancing troops, fell in with a number of German soldiers also deserters. The Germans had stolen a lot of food, wearing apparel and other articles of value and, wit nesses said induced the Americans to assist the Germans in rescuing the stolen property from cache.

(By United Press.)

PARIS. (By Mail. Though en-
gared in demobilizing her entire re-
serve army, France will maintain
numerical supremacy of at least three

thus guaranteeing the outcarrying OF
the treaty terms.
A. the present time France has
nearly two million men under arms,
but the present rehabilitation plans
call for the discharge Of all but 6oo'-
600 before November l. Germany
now has about 100000 mon in her
volunteer armies. This number must
be reduced to 100000 during the next
few months. Hence, in November,
with Frances rehabilitation complet-
ed and Germany reduced to the army
permitted her by the treaty, France
will still have full control of the sit
uation.
On March 81, 1920, Germany will
have to have demobilized all but a
permanent standing force of 100000
men. France will on that date still
have 100000 men mobilized, or su-

France then be in position to watch
Germany closely, but she will be aided
