DISCHARGED SOLDIERS
OVERCROWDING DETROIT

Don't go to Detroit This is the
gist of warning just issued to all
discharged soldiers and sailors by Col
secretary of war.
Widespread circulation has been
given to a report among returned SER
vice men to the effect that this city
is greatly in need of men and that
they can readily find jobs in the au-
tomobile industries As a result thous-
ands of ex-service men have gone
there. thereby taxing to the utmost
Destroit's housing facilities.
Don't make for Detroit just because
some chance acquaintance happens to
tell you that there are plenty of good
jobs there for the asking" is Colonel
Woods advice. when you get there
you viii in all probability be disap-
pointed in finding that Detroit is
working over the problem of caring
for its own returning men,
Employment figures show that of
all the men applying in Detroit for
employment 95 per cent are from out
of town, and the reports of the welfare
organizations show that practically all
men for financial help do not live
there Notwithstanding this burden
Detroit has responded to the occasion
and has succeeded in finding jobs for
many of these men. However. the
influx of labor during the past few
months has been so great that nearly
all the really good jobs have been
taken.

In response to the query "does dry

Mr.. Haworth has 10 acres Of land
and in response to questions he had the

Paris Has Own Little
Monte Carlo at Gates

PARIS, June 7-(By Associated
Press 1t may not be generally
know that Paris has its own little
Monte Carlo a few miles from its
gates, with beautiful Casino where
roulette and other gambling games
may be played, and containing a club
without the intricacies of election)
where baccarat and its like may be
INDUCED in. It's name is Enghien-les-
Bains, the baths and mineral waters
of the little town being of medical val
ue sufficient to cover the Casino as
necessity for it's visitors.
The dangers of gambling center
at the very gates of Paris led the
Chamber of Deputies to vote i'll 1913
that no casino should be allowed with
in so miles of the capital. The bill was
still before the senate when the war
began and Enghien's casino became
a hospital and is to be brought up for
again soon.

PRELIMINARY MEASURE TAKEN
FOR SENATE PROBE OF LEAK
Inquiry May Take Wide Scope, But
Will Not be Shaped Till
Monday

WASHINGTON, June 7.--(By Associ-
ated Press) administrator officials
believe President Wilson'S reply to the
senate resolution asking for the peace
treaty with Germany will be that it is
not compatible with the public inter-
est to, furnish the text at this time
This belief was strengthened by
dispatches today from Paris saying the
American peace delegation apparently
is firm in it's decision not to author
ize publication of the treaty until it is
signed.
Preliminary measures were being
taken today for the investigation by
the senate foreign relations commit
tee into statements that copies of the
peace treaty are in private hands in
this country. The inquiry authorized
by a senate resolutions Monday, may
take a wide scope. 1t is expected that
definite plans will not be laid, however
until the committee meets to take up
the subject Monday.
Meantime the state department was
forwarding to President Wilson and
Secretary Lansing at Paris another
resolution adopted by the senate yes
terday asking for the complete text
of the treaty. Officials here will not
make any prediction whether the re-
quest will be complied with.
There still remains in the senate a
resolution by Senator Sherman, repub-
lican of Illinois resolution declaring
it the sense of the senate that the COW
enant Of the league of nations should
be submitted separately from the peace
treaty for ratification. With the other
two resolutions out of the way Sena-
ter Sherman may call up his measure
and thus provide the vehicle for more
debate on the subject.

necessary to establish Salvation Ar
my Corps in Americas and to provide
