 There appears every prospect that the Peace conference will make rapid progress from now on with the work of fixing the Peace terms for Germany, as the conference appears to have gotten into its stride. A high French diplomatic authority is quot ed by the Paris edition of the Lon don Daily Mail as estimating that the conference will have the Peace terms ready for submission for ratification by the various national governments between the middle and the end of March. this IS accomplished the German delegated vii lbe summoned to Paris early in April for the con- clusion of the peace.
 Delegates of the small Powers will hneet at the foreign office this after hoon to choose their representatives No sit on the commissions provide ed for in the resolutions passed by the Peace Congress on Saturday. It was understood this morning that the great Powers had undertaken to re- consider the decision that the small Powers shall have between them only live members on these commissions Without waiting for a decision on this question, however, the commis sion will get to work at once.

 He formerly worked on the roads, and by the day for farmers in Fair Held He kept strictly to himself, would not tell anything about himself /Dr where he came from. Quiet, inter tering with no one, he was one of the Characters of the vicinity.
 He was taken to st. Vincent's hos patal yesterday afternoon by Select man H. R. Efwood of Fairfield, in his automobile, after MT. Elwood had found him lying in his lone hut sick, and unable to care for himself.
 MT. Tlwood stated this morning that The man had been a town charge for the last two years of his life. While he 0oes not believe Louie Red'' is his light name, 1t is so recorded on the town books, and is the only one he is known by. No relatives of the aged hermit are known to the authorities of Fairfield

FARMS FOR SOLDIERS
FAVORED BY CONGRESS

Washington, Aug. 13.--The report
Of the house committee on public
lands In favor OF the adoption of
the Mondell plan for Farms for
soldiers" expresses some interesting
views on the returned-soldier prob
lem. II says, in part:
"Broadlay, the problem is how to
absorb them into our national life
on terms which shall be satisfactory
to them and profitable to the nation.
Specifically, the problem as present
ed In all Of the bills referred to the
committee is how to furnish them
with immediate employment and 10
open the way to self-sustaining homes
or the land, and how to furnish them
with necessary capital.
There are two considerations to
be borne In mind dealing with the
question The first IL the welfare OF
the soldier himself. II Is incumbent
upon congress TO see that no man
who In time OF war shall come Ia
want in time of peace. Every sol.
dier who needs employment should
have employment. The second con.
sideration TO be observed II, OF course
the welfare OF the nation.
"The committee has decided that
II is unquestionably the duty of con,
gress to enact Legislation with the least
possible delay which shall make pro.
vision for the welfare OF returning
soldiers, sailors and marines"

San Francisco, Aug. 19.-In recent
address before members of the Adver-
tising Club OF Baltimore, Md, II. ID.
Hubbard OF Washington, ID. g., Secre-
tary 10 the u. s. Government Bureau
OF Standards made an earnest plea for
the adoption OF metric units Of
measurement In the United States.
Mr.. Hubbard pointed out that, dur
ing the war, American manufacturers
were forced to use the metric system
Ia the manufacture Of guns and other
ordnance, and 2 principal American To-
comotive works had 10 use II In the
building OF locomotives. IL the work
ON the blue prints for these locomotives
had to be done In feet and inches, Mr..
Hubbard said, the locomotives would
never have been built. He further said
that America refusing TO adopt the
metric units Is keeping herself as far
behind In the matter OF proper stand
ards as was China, who has now
adopted metric units.
