 whether good or bad" he continued, this league, once entered upon and per petuated, will under the compelling force of the combined armies and navies or the world, control our destiny from now down through the remaining period or the recorded time.
 "As the covenant is now framed 1t con- tains the pernicous provisions embodied in article 10, which was designed to fix through all time the boundaries set up by the treaty of peace.
 .sIt is no secret that these boundaries are already the subject of serious com plaint.
 "I am quite aware of the fashion now to regard everything that comes to us from the past as outgrown or impractica- l be or wholly bad.

Statement on His Annual
Report Was Sent Out by the

Washington, Nov. 25.--In connection
with press accounts Of his annual re-
port to the secretary of war General
March, chief of staff, today issued the
following statement:
In the newspapers of Sunday, No
vember 23, there appeared a review Of
the annual report of General Peyton
G. March, chief of staff, sent out by
the Associated Press, which credited
him with favoring an army of $780,
900 men. This statement was entire
ly erroneous. The report of the chief of
staff was strong presentation of the
necessity for an army of 100000 men,
and included with it copy of the So
called war department bill, which is
now before congress and which en-
bodies General March's ideas as pre-
sented in his annual report. This bill
specifically states the number of men
recommended and in no place in the
report does there appear anything
which suggests any other army than
an army of 10000 men,"

Equipped with books filled with sta

the problem.
Rail Director Hines will also attend
to give his help. And Secretary Wilson
of the labor department is expected to
go to the meeting armed with more
statistics. If the cabinet finds the So

Meanwhile John Lewis, president Of

GARFIELD OPPOSES.

Fuel Administrator Garfield and
several cabinet members opposed this
view and Garfield at the second ses-
sion late today was to lay new fats
and figures before the cabinet to sup
port his contention.
Attention was called to the argd-
mehl Of operators that while Wilson
based his figures on wages paid pick
miners in 1913, about 10 PEI cent CT
the coal now mined in the central COM
petitive field is mined by machinery.
The contract for this field Is the one
to be Immediately negotiated.
Wilson at the second meeting today
planned to point out that more than SO
per cent of the coal mined throughout
the country is taken out with picks.
Garfield was prepared to emphasize
that any wage increase given the min
ers will increase the price of coal to
the public and he maintains that wage
increases and the corresponding in
crease in price should be carefully
scrutinized to protect the public.
= Miners and operators postponed all
Joint conferences this afternoon pend

They expected to be called in Joint
conference by Garfield immediately

CHAMPAGNE SELLS
FOR 81 IN GERMANY

Berlin, Nov. 25.--Champagne at 81 a
bottle.
That is the price that prevailed to-
day in the reichstag restaurant where
busy German legislators lunch. The
low value of the German mark has
brought about the low price OF the
aristocratic beverage. For the last two
days the rate of exchange has made an
American dollar worth 35 marks--and
80 marks is the price the German gov
el nment makes to its legislators for
bottle of champagne.
The reichstag restaurant is oper-
ated by the government at cost for the
benefit of its employees. Prices on the
wine list are set down of course, in
German, without comparative value in
exchanges with other countries. But
It didn't take American newspaper men
long to figure out the cost in dollars.
In peace time the 35-mark price
would make bottle of the wine worth
$40. -

Armed Conflict Between Italy and JugoSlava May Result
Allies Have Reached End of Patence-Poet Soldier Ex-

of London-CrsS Is Near.

London, Nov. 25.-Growing fear Of
. Balkan war-with Italy and Jugo-
Slavia playing the leading roles-was
expressed in the British press today.
The anomalous situation created by
Gabrielle D'Annunzio in F'iume and
Dalmatia has brought the allies near
ly to the end of their patience, in the
opinion of some newspapers. If this
situation is allowed to continue un-
checked in the opinion Of The Evening
Standard it will provide a new war.
The Pail Mall Gazette fears a poss-
BILE Balkan war unless the peace con-
ference takes action to enforce its de-
cisions with regard to Fiume and Dali
malta. No agreement Italy may enter
can be considered more than "scrap
of paper" so long as her soldiers and
sailors may be weaned from allegiance
to their government by an "egotistical
rebel" and induced to "flout the peace
conference" the Gazette declared.
DEFERS CONFERENCE.
D'Annunzio holds Fiume and Zara
not only against the request of the
peace conference, but in direct defi-
ance of the orders of his government

even has induced Italian military
forces to embark upon attacks upon

Jugo- Slavia, the Gazette said, has
exercised most exemplary restraint"
in not taking action against DAnnun-
Zio, assuming that the peace confer
ence will carry out the provisions de-
cided upon for disposal of Adriatic

ecuted speedily, in the opinion of this
newspaper, Italy soon may find herself
