services. During this service Mrs.
Crawford'sang, "Jesus' Love is Sweet

was singing, she noticed that young
man was deeply affected by the

that he had been sent to the Federal
prison from Washington, D. c., to
serve fve-year sentence.
Two weeks after attending the first
service Of the Salvation Army, he
was converted and became one Of the

A MAN May BE DOWN

When Thomas Mott O, horne, the
New York millionaire, w; placed in
charge Of Sing Sing prise the most
notorious penal institution in the
United States today-hc inaugurated
several new methods which he belev-
ed would have a lasting effect upon
the criminal and which would bring
him to a realization of his downfall.
With the inauguration of Mr.. Os-
borne's humane efforts, music was
one Of the first inducements offered
the unfortunatcs. The effect upon
thera from this method is now nation
wide. What has been tried in Sing

HER FOREIGN COLONIES
THE PEACE CONFERENCE
HAS DECIDED. ONE REA.
SON IS THE FEAR THAT
GERMANY MIGHT BE
ABLE TO HAVE SUBMA-
RINE BASES IN VARIOUS
PARTS OF THE WORLD.

Paris, Jan. 27.-The Supreme
Council of the Peace conference met
at 1880 this morning. There was a
full attendance of the members.
The council of ten as the French
now call the ministers of the flve
great nations has before it for con-
sideration today in executive session
the questions of territorial adjust
ment, abolition of conscription and
the economic reconstruction of Ger
many. These questions together
with other matters will be referred
to committees. .
One of the questions which it is
expected the conference to take up
and Of great Importance is the sub
ject of the German foreign colonies.
France and Great Britain are agreed
on one solution of the matter and
that is that the colonies shall not be
returned to Germany under no con-
sideration. The reasons for this de-
cision are various, but one objection
staAds out prominently, in order to
prevent Germany from using them
for German submarines.
The American attitude on the sub
ject has not yet been disclosed.

Paris, Jan. 27.---Robert Lansing,

members of the American commit

ton of responsibility for the war.
The other member will probably be
one of the experts attached to the

American views on this important
question that carries with it the
verdict of life or death to the form
er German Emperor and some OF
his generals and admirals and even
civilian officials.
Although the French government
through the publication Of the opion-
ion Of it's legal advisers particular
ly endorsed the theory that 1t is
within the power of the Peace Con-
ference to try German, Austrian,
Turkish and Bulgarians violators OF
the laws of welfare, the American
commissioners have not yet disclos-
ed their position. The belief has
been expressed, however, that they
will be found not much at variance
with the French view as to the strict
question of legal power, but they
will not commit themselves regard
ing the policy to he adopted in the
exercise of that power.

Raleigh, N. c., Jan. 27.-B0th
Houses were loafing today and this
delayed the opening of the legisla-
ture until two o'clock this afternoon
when 1t was proposed to consider
three measures Of Importance.
The first is the Child Labor Bill
which provides for inspection Of
factories with the view Of looking
after the children working therein.
Commissioner of Labor and Printing
Shipman who is sponsor for the
measure would have it directed by
Commission to be composed Of
himself, DR.. w. =. Rankin Of the
State Board of Health and Super
intendent of Public instruction Il.
G. Brooks.
The second proposition is from
Senator Scatles to raise q sufficient
sum by taxation to meet the govern
ment proposition to spend North
Carolina's share Of the 100000
federal good roads appropriation.
He proposes to tax the automobiles
Of North Carolina 500 per horse
power for this purpose.
The third measure is the repeal Of
that section of the Machinery Act
which requires corporations to GER
tify the incomes Of their employees
to the Corporation Commission Of
the state, leaving all persons liable
for such taxes to he looked after In
the usual way. There is a consider

STRENGTH OF GERMAN }
ARMY AT PRESENT TIME

Paris, Jan. 25.-An effort to as
certain the strength and resources
of the German army will be the first
problem considered by the military
committee appointed Thursday by
the supreme war council to report
on thestrength Of the allied and as
sociated forces to be retained on the
western front during the period of
the armistice.
It was assumed that the German
now have about 100000 men under
arms, but It is necessary to confirm
these figures and also to determine
to what extent the manufacture of
arms, munitions and other military
supplies is going on.

as those concerning Mesopotamia,

BILLS MUST BE RUSHED

Washington, Jan. 27.-An extra
session Of Congress next spring now
seems certain in the view of both
Democratic and Republican leaders.
Managers of both parties said last
night that they did not believe it
would be possible to pass all press
ing legislation before the expiration
of this Congress on March 4. Most
leaders believe the new session will
begin in May.
With but thirty-one working days
of the present session remaining ap-
prohibition bills are to be rushed
this week. Only six Of the sixteen
regular supply bills have been pass
ed by the House and none by the
Senate. Besides the regular appro-
priation measures, several special
money bills, including the new de-
flciency measure and the $3.50 ,000,-
900 request Of the Railroad Admin
istration, await action.
Much general legislation also is
on the calendars, with the railroad,
unemployment, naval program and
other questions being pressed for So
luton. International affairs also
are receiving much attention in the
Senate and additional addresses on
matters connected with the Peace
Conference are planned this week.
Speakers will include Senator Hitch
cock, Of Nebraska, chairman, in fav-
or Of a league Of nations.
Legislation to validate war con-
tracts aggregating about $2,750,
100000 will be taken up today by
the Senate, with lively dispute in
prospect over the House bill and the
substitute framed by the Military
Committee. The annual postoffice
and harbors bills will be reported
today and the consideration is ex-
pected to follow passage Of the war
contract legislation.
In the House the agricultural ap-
preparation bill is to be taken up to-
day to be followed by the deficient
measure appropriating $2S5, 900 900
and providing reductions for about
fifteen billion dollars in war author
izations. Final legislative actions
is expected early in the week on the
administration bill appropriating
$100,000,000 for food relief in Eu-
rope and the near east which is now
in conference.
A lively partisan fight is looked
for today in the Senate upon presen-
tation of the resolution, reported by|
