MARSHAL FOCH
ASKS FOR power
TO IMPOSE PEACE
Calls for Maintenance of Mob
iIized Military Forces to
Prevent Germany From
Renewing War.

Paris, Jan. 26-Marshal Foch rem
dered the allied powers valuable SER
vice when he placed before the SUI
preme council his report on his ne
gotiations with the German repre-
sentatives at the time of the renewal
of the armistice, says the Echo De
Paris in commenting upon the plans
for the rehabilitation of the various
armies on the basis Of mutual un-
Outstanding.
His report, the newspaper de-
clares, pointed the way toward a
proper and wise method, for he laid
emphasis on the fact that coming
peace must not merely be a written
one, but one in actuality-in other
words, that ii must be peace inn
posed on the enemy, and that suffi-
cient modified military power
should be maintained to enforce it.

"has not yet completely surrender
ed, She is seeking for accomplices
and cannot fail ultimately to find a
few such. The governments there
fore should not demobilize their
forces without a common under
Standing. This course, if persisted
in, would rapidly lessen the value
of the peace treaty.
"The powers should come TO an
understanding as to the forces which
they intend maintaining in Germany.
Such an understanding is essential
to the preservation of proper state
of things both in Europe as a whole
and in France in particular, as
France cannot 60 on bearing indef-

London, Jan. 26.-Anticipating an
announcement to be made Thursday
by conference of Sir Eric Geddes,
former first lord of the admiralty,
Field Marshal Haig and Maj Gen.
Henry L. Wilson, chief of the gem
eral staff of the British army, now
meeting in Paris, statement issued
by the war office tonight says:
THE proposals of the conference
will make sure that we have in ev-
cry theater of the war sufficient
forces during the present year TO see
that we are not robbed of our VIC
tories, and the Germans and their
confederates will be made to execute
faithfully and punctually the condi-
tons not only of the armistice. but
the treaty of peace, when that is
signed, and they will also enable us
to discharge our own duties towards
our allies and those dependent upon
Us.
1T must be clearly understood,
the statement continues, that while
Great Britain is prepared to do her
share of the work still to be done,
that the United States, France and
Italy will act with her in maintain
ing the common interests and Sc
curing the advantages gained to-

You must remember that the United

domitable power of women and men
alike TO sustain any burden if the
cause was great enough.
Strain Not in Vain.
"In an ordinary war there might
have been some shrinking, some
sinking of effort; but this was not
an ordinary war. This was a war
not only to reedem France from an
enemy, but to redeem the world
from an enemy. And France, there.
fore, and the women of France
strained their hearts to sustain the
world. I hope that the strain has
not been in vain. ] know that it has
not been in vain.
This war has been popular and
unlike other wars, in that it seemed
sometimes as if the chief strain was
behind the lines and not at the lines.
1t took so many men to conduct the
war that the older men and the wom-
en- at home had to carry the nation.
Not only so, but the industries of
the nation were almost as much a
part of the fighting as the things
that took place at the fronts.
so it is for that reason that I
have said to those with whom ! am
at present associated that this must
be peoples peace, because this was
a peoples war. The people won
this war, not the governments. and
the people must reap the benefits OF
the war. At every turn we must see
to it that it is not an adjustment
between governments merely, but
an agreement for the peace and Sc
curity Of men and women. every
where.
"The little obscure suFerings and
the daily unknown privations, the
unspokeri sufferings Of the heart, are
the tragical things of this war. They
have been borne at home, and the
center of the home is the woman.
Ny heart goes out to you, therefore,
ladies, in very unusual degree; and

you this message, not from myself
merely, but from the great people
whom I represent"

Prospect Good for
Abundance Of Wheat,
Opinion Of Houston

St. Louis, Jan. 26.-Dvid B.
Houston, secretary of agriculture,
TO-DAY in explaining why the govern
ment is not urging farmers to plant
larger crops of wheat next spring,
pointed out that the crops planted
IN the spring will not be available for
the market until next fall, when food
conditions will be changed.
"The farmers planted last fall
100000 more acres of wheat than
they did at any previous time, and
the indications are that the spring
plant will be on very large scale,1
he said. "The question is, can the
crop be disposed of at the guaran-
iced price Of 500 a bushel on No.

1T is, however, no more possible
to demobilize in week the whole

American farmers, merchants, pack.

NO HELP GIVEN
TRANSPORT WHEN
HUNS ATTACKED
Failure Of Cruiser Galveston
to Protect TiCOnderoga
Explained in Report
of Commander.

Washington, Jan. 26-Published
reports that the cruiser Galveston
had failed to give adequate protec-
ton to the American transport II
eonderoga, sunk by a German sub
marine September 80, last, caused
Secretary Daniels to issue a state
ment tonight describing how the
ships was destroyed as reported by
the commanding officer of the cruz
ser, and stating that court Of in
quiry was Investigating.
The statement set forth that the
Galveston, acting as escort for IA
vessels, l,400 miles off the British
coast, was ahead and on the right
flank, and that the cargo carrier
Feltors was known to be two miles
south of the convoy. Shortly before
daylight the Galveston, seeing a gun
flash on the starboard side five or
six miles away, and thinking the
Feltors was being attacked, changed
her course, ran toward the flash and
opened fire with the five inch qua"
The commanding officer reported
that few minutes later the Calves
ton saw a second set of gun flashes
which were very close together "and
made it dangerous to continue firing
due to the possibility of hitting a
friendly vessel" Immediately the
cessation Of gun flashes the cruiser
quit firing.
Returned to Convoy.
Not knowing the Ticonderoga had
fallen out Of the convoy, the state
ment continued, the Galveston re-
turned to her position, and in check
ing up the ships later it was found
the transport was missing.
The commanding officer states
that due to the large number of
men in the engineers force who
are sick with influenza" Secretary
Daniels said, 1T had been necessary
to reduce his boiler power and if
he remained absent from the convoy
any great length of time he would
be unable to rejoin and the sub
marine would therefore have good
opportunity of attacking the other
vessels OF the convoy. That he did
not know the ship attacked was
from his convoy and that it was his
first duty to remain with the large
number of ships in the convoy rath-
er than to remain longer with the
ship being attacked and that he
thought she had chance to escape,
THE commanding officer states
that his general instructions were
that If one or more ships in convoy
are torpedoed or mined the ocean
escort is to proceed with her con-
voy.
Survivors OF the Ticonderoga re-
ported that during the night Of
September 29-30 the vessel had

Paris, Jan. 26.-American interests
are profoundly affected by the CON
ditions in Europe.
The purchasing power of Amer
lean gold and dollars does not fune-
ton if exchanged for paper that
cannot be redeemed in gold The
purchasing power Of gold is seri-
ously reduced by excess issue of
paper money.
If the pay of American soldiers
is exchanged to French francs at the
normal exchange, the purchasing
power of that monthly wage has
become so impaired that the soldiers
are unable with this currency to buy
two good pears each day in France,
because pears cost 80 cents apiece.
The prices OF other foods and all
commodities likewise are very high.
The abnormal prices are due to
numerous causes including high
freight rates, deficient freight accom-
modations, and defective methods
of distribution.
$3.50 Per Capita.
But at least half of this loss is due
to the imitation of the paper cur
rency. France has issued 100000
francs in paper currency with gold
cover OF less than 20 per cent. This
means a circulation of over $3.50 per
capita, being nearly four times the
amount per capita circulation in the
United States.
Therefore, if we spend $2OO,0O00OO
monthly for our soldiers in France.
or for other other American pure
poses, the net loss would result APP
proximately to one-half of the ex-
penditure, on account of the infia-
ton of French currency.
This inhicts a very heavy loss up
on America. The injury to France.

The French statesmen feel the

Du Bost in his recent inaugural
speech as president of the senate,
emphasized the importance of this
task, calling attention to the neces-
sity of providing means for with
drawing from circulation the excess

suggested that this could be done by
bond issues receiving currency out
