STUBBORN AT SUPREME COUN-
CHS REFUSAL TO GRANT

EXPECT JuGO-SlMS TO BALk
ROumania Contends for Rights oi
Minorities in Territories. Detch-
ed From Austrian Empire

Paris. Sept. 9.-The Roumanian
delegation TO the peace conference
announced today that it would, not
sign the peace treaty, the signing OF
which by Austria and various other
powers has been set for tomorrow.
It had been expected that Rou-
mania would refuse to sign. due to
the supreme councils flat refusal to
grant her the privilege OF making
reservations in connection with the
rights OF minorities in territories de-
tached from the former Austrian
empire, as provided for in the peace
treaty.
II is also considered improbable
that the Jugo-Slav delegation will
sign the treaty. They have obiec-
tions similar to the Roumanians.

AMERICAN OOUCHBOY

New York, Sept. 9.-"The Ameri-
can 'doughboy' is the finest soldier
in the world. and it didn't take the
Germans long to find it out" declar-
ed. General Pershing in an interview
granted newspapermen today
I'VE boasted a little probably of
the peculiar qualities of the kmeri-
can fighting man, but his aggressive
ness. initiative and devotion as a
member of the American expedition
ary forces gives us every right to
boast and to be proud of him." the
commander said.
Il suppose il is because of the way
the American boy is raised. due to
the fact that he is encouraged to de-
velop his initiative and that he feels
at any crisis of his life that he is
master of his own destiny"
The general refused to discuss in
ternational relations the league of
nations, or his own plans on enter
ing civil life.
II am still on duty" he said. ut
is a pleasant duty hut very strenu-
ous." The general had just finished
luncheon after little rest to re-
fresh himself.
General, what do you consider
the crowning achievement of your
service abroad" he was asked.
Cutting the German lines at Sc
dan on November g." was the reply.
WAS that a more difficult opera
tion than cutting the Hindenburg
line?"
Cutting the Hindenburg line was
a start toward cuttig the line at Sc.
dan, IL was hard to tell what might
have become of it under different
circumstances. 1t followed the fina
effort of the Germans to force theii
way through but their armies were
beaten before they started"

DOVER. DEL, MAY Among the bills
passed by the recent General Assembly
that Governor Townsend allowed to die
by not signing it was Senator Palmers
bill relative to the County Comptroller
Of Sussex County. While the bill pro-
vided for an increase for the comp
troller, the feature Of the act that was
bitterly fought by the Democrats and
few Republicans in both houses was a
clause requiring the unanimous vote in
stead OF a majority vote OF the Levy
Court TO override the Comptroller's
veto. With the exception OF the Kent
County "rippers," which were killed in
the House, the Sussex Comptroller bill
was attacked as the most Objectionable
partisan measure OF the entire session.
