Jack 'iickfOrd
After Inquiry
Discharged ''Movie" Stars
Brother When Convicted
by q Court Martial

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The dis
charge from the navy of John c. Pick
ford, brother of Mary Pickford, the
'movie' star. was because of com
pIicity in the New York naval graft
scandal. official records of the Navy
Department disclosed to-day.
Pickford according to the Navy De-
partment records, served as the go.
between who arranged the transactions
between Lieutenant Benjamin 5. Davis
and the rich young slackcrs who sought
bomb proof bcrths in the naval re-
serve. Davis was found guilty by
court martial and, with other naval
officers, is now awaiting trial on
further counts.
The record of the court martial of
Davis shows that Pickford turned
states evidence and enabled the gov
crnmcnt to round up the bribe takers.
The admissions Pickford made at the
court martial, however prompted
Judge Advocate General Clark to rec
ommend that he be dsenrolled "as
undesirable" On the strength of "A
letter from the secretary to the Pres
dent, Joseph +. Tumulty, however
Pickford was given an "ordnary d's-
charge"
Secretary Tumuty explained that he
know nothing Of the graft case at the
time Of writing the letter and merely
made an inquiry TO the department on

in the case Judge Advocate General
Clark also wrote:
"The record further shows that Pick
ford admitted that. in an official appli
cation made by him to the supervisor
of the Naval Reserve Flying Corps for
enrolment in that branch of the service,
he had wilfully and deliberately made
false statement in regard to his use
Of intoXlcants."
The Judge advocate concluded by
saying that "as it is apparent that he
is not fit person to be retained in
the naval service, it is recommended
that he be disenroled from the naval
reserve force as undesirable"
After Mr.. Tumulty's letter reached
the department the following men,

various forms of diversion.

President Is Confident

President Wilson started hack to the
peace conference yesterday morning.
His second departure, in marked con-
trast to the triumphal start Of his first
trip, was attended by practically no
popular demonstrations.
The Presidents floating home, the
transport George Washington, slipped
from her berth at Pier 4, Hoboken, at
s:l5 o'clock. the exact time set for her
sailing. An hour later, sped by the
Presidential salute of twenty-one guns
fired by the monitor Amphitrite, the
transport passed Quarantine and into
the lower Bay, and then headed into
the open sea.
The President sailed in the full be-
lief that the American people were
back of him. just before the George
Washlngtons gangplank was withdrawn
he told the group Of newspaper men
ference would be completed sooner
than expected, because of progress in
the negotiations made since his de-
parture from France.
Well Pleased With Situation
81 am well pleased with the general
situation both here and abroad" said
the President, ''and l am supremely
confident that the people of the United
States vii! back up our endeavors at
the peace conference.
Every statement made in my speech
last night, and every utterance made
since my return to the United States,
will ie understood by the people at
large, if not by certain politicians.
"The responsibility for blocking
necessary legislation in Washington is
perfectly we'll known to the public, and
this responsibility does not have to be

A second farewell message was given
by the President to "The Right About"

pitfalls here. America will not forget
the sacrifices and sufferings of the
American wounded, read the Presi-
dents message.
NUblest Badges of Honor
81 could tell you what the sacrifices
you have made have meant to me-" he
said. 81 could tell you what history
for all time will say of you and the
suffering you have experienced in your
great crusade. But these things other
men will tell you.
Il prefer to remind you that the
wounds you bear are the nobest badges
of honor any man has ever worn; that
they eXalt you to a supreme place in
the minds and hearts Of your country
men and all the world.
II prefer TO assure you that America

Food Problems Next

When The foregoing matters are out
OF the way the council of ten viii take
up food problems, especially their cor
nectlon with transportation facilities.
Rumania is known to have sufficient
stock Of food on hand to provide for
the wants of Serbia, but it is impos-
sible to transport it unless special ar
rangements are made. Another matter
on the agenda this week is Russia.
from which news is of such character r
as to make it imperative for the con-
ference to reach a decision.
Premier Lloyd Georges presence to-
morrow will make it possible to take
up the aforementioned questions, and
with wireless communications with
President Wilson in effect. it NAV be
possible to reach agreements. There is
an increasing belief in American cir
cles here that some form of Allied
intervention in Russia may be found
necessary.
Conference May Admit Holland
The question Of the controversy be-
tween Belgium and Holland over the
Limburg region is arousing more in
terest here, with the proposition aris-
ing that Holland may we'll be admitted
to the peace conference. The neces-
sity Of. a preliminary agreement be-
tween Belgium and Holland is realized,
especially since Holland is a contract
ing party in two out of the three
treaties guaranteeing the neutrality Of
Belgium.
