LEAVES OF ABSENCE
 NOW MORE LIBERAL.
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

PARIS, Jan. 22.-Leaves of absence from the American army are hereafter to be granted on a more liberal basis. In addition to the previous regulations, allowing seven days leave every four months, four classes of other leaves will be granted.
 Class A of these leaves, applying to the enlisted men. is the same as for merly; class B for officers and soldiers, are leaves not exceeding fourteen days every four months to visit Great Brit ain, Belgium or Italy or points in France except Paris, travel time both ways being included in the period of leave
 For soldiers, these leaves take the place of the class A leave, and for off cers, they will be granted without spe- cial reasons. To soldiers, they will be granted for the purpose of visiting inn mediate relatives, or without special reason, to men of exceptionally good character.
 The class c leave provides for a three-day visit to Paris, travel time not included. It is granted on conditions similar to those of the other two classes Class D is a casual leave of ten days.
 The class E leave is a three day leave to all points in France other than Paris, travel time not included. Excep- tjon is made only in the case of Alsace- Lorraine, which can be visited only af- ter permission had been granted by the French military mission.

SHIP CARPENTERS MAY JOIN SEATTLE STRIKE

SEATTLE, Jan. 22.-Possibility that the 5000 ship carpenters, joiners and other woodworkers in Washington, under jurisdiction of the Puget Sound Maritime Council of Carpenters, might join the metal trades shipyard strike was increased today by receipt of a telegram from G. Sanfancon, an in- ternational officer of the carpenters and joiners unions, saying the carpep- ters "could not afford to desert' the metal tradesmen at this time, and that the strike should be a united move ment." The Puget Sound maritime council has ordered the wood working crafts not to strike, pending decision of their case by the war labor board.
 The metal trades strike here, which has virtually suspended steel ship building, is for a wage scale allowing sS, s7 and s6 for mechanics, helpers and laborers respectively. The strike began yesterday

sia peace, and an opportunity to find her way out of her present troubles.
 ''The associated powers are now en- gagged in the solemn and responsible work of establishing the peace of Eu- rope and of the world, and they are keenly alive to the fact that Europe and the world cannot be at peace if Russia is not They recognize and ac- cept it as a duty to serve Russia as generously, IS unselfishly, as thought fully, as ungrudgingiy. as they would serve any other friend and ally, anu they are ready to render this service in the way that is most acceptable to the Russian people

PRUSS|AN GERMANS
 ANT|-B0LSHEV|K|

WARSAW, Saturday, Jan. 1S.-(By the Associated Press).- That the Ger man population of the East Prussia provinces not only is anti-bolsheyiki, but is organizing an army to protect the frontiers, is the main fact found during a journey from Warsaw over the Polish frontier to Danzig and Hemel. It was also found that the ar my of General von Hoffman, both men and officers, while uncontaminated by bolshevism, is demoralized and indif- ferent to the fact that the arms and munitions the Germans are selling to Lithuania, will later be used against them.
 From conversations picked up aboard trains, which were crowded with civil ians and soldiers, it seemed apparent that the new army has been organized locally, but is under vague direction from Berlin. The single district of Os- trovo furnished 30,000 soldiers.
 Although the bolsheviki are near Libau, and have occupied Riga, they will be resisted at Memel.
 There is much rivalry between the bauerenrat, the arbeiterat and the soldatenrat, with political affars gen. orally managed by the arbeiterat, which is only partly composed of so- cialists.
 An instance of this rivalry was wit messed at the station of Illovo, on the Polish frontier. The president of the arbeiterat criticized a sergeant of the soldatenrat for the way in which he was holding his rifle. The sergeant assaulted the president with a pair of brass knucles, bruising his nose. The president reta,iated by stabbing the sergeant nine times with a knife.

SENATORS PLANNING
 NEXT ORGANIZATION

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Revision of senate rules which give senators of long service choice committee as- sisnments, was discussed today by republican senators at a conference held to consider the resolution of Sena- tor Norris of Nebraska, to prohibit chairman of important committees from holding any other committee places. Republican Leader Lodge, chairman of the conference, was au- thorized to appoint a committee of five to consider various suggestions for committee reform.
 Arguments against alleged domina- ton of important committee chair mauships and conference committees by comparatively few senators, were made by Senator Norris and others. Senator Cummins of Iowa, however, declared senators should not be pen
 Iized for long service.
 While general sentiment of the prac- tice was said to be against entire abandonment of the seniority rule, it also was said to be the concensus of opinion that some changes should be made.
 Senator Lodge later appointed a committee to consider amendment of the rules. Senators Lenroot of Wis consin was named chairman. The other members were Cummins of Iowa. Shoot of Utah; Norris of Neb- raska: Harding of Ohio; Knox of Pennsylvania, and Hale of Maine.
