NATIONS CLAMOR FOR LIBERTY
Referring to the atmosphere of the
peace conference, President Wilson said:
THE atmosphere in which the con.
ference worked seemed created, not by
the ambitions of strong governments.
but by the hopes and aspirations of
small nations and of peoples hitherto
under bondage to the power that vic
tory had shattered and destroyed. Two
great empires had been forced into
political bankruptcy and we were the
receivers. Our task was not only to
make peace with the Central Empires
and remedy the wrongs their armies had
done. The central empires had lived in
open violation of many of the very rights
for which the war had been fought DOM
mating alien peoples over whom they had
no natural right to rule enforcing. not
obedience, but veritable bondage, eX-
plotting those who were weak for the
benefit of those who were masters and
overlords only by force of arms. There
could be no peace until the whole order
of Central Europe was set right"

lowing to the great distance by which
We are separated and the difficulties Of
travel by land and sea, our mutual reia-
lions in the past have not reached great
development, However, bonds of close
friendship have been established between
our two governments and l express the
earnest hope that these bonds will grow
still stronger, resulting in greater COM
merce and more frequent intercourse be-
tween Abyssinia and the United States.

EBERT SIGNS BILL
RAT|FY|NG TREATY

Berlin, Wednesday, July Q. tBy the
Associated Press. )-Prcsident Ebert signed
the bill ratfyng the peace treaty at
eight o'clock tonight. according to the
Vorwaerts, and the document" has been
despatched to Versailles.
Versailles. July 10.-OfficiaI notification
of the ratification of the peace treaty
by the German national assembly was
given the peace conference this morn
ing.
Weimar, July 10. (By the Associated
Press.)-The German national assembly
very plainly demonstrated yesterday that
1t wanted to complete the unpleasant
task of ratifying the treaty quickly and
without obscuring the measure in any
way with qualifying resolutions.
AT the opening of the session, the con.
servatives introduced a resolution which
make ratification dependent upon the
Judgment Of recognized authorized in
international law as to whether the pro-
posed international court court institute
trial and could with retroactive jurisdic-
ton and authority, impose penalties
which have not heretofore been prescribed
in international law. The resolution was
aimed at the enforcement of articles 27
to 230. inclusive, of the peace treaty.
providing for the trial of the former
Emperor and Germans accused of caus-
ing the war or of violations of the rules
of war; 1t also provides for the estab-
lishment of neutral court to pass upon
the question of responsibility of the con-
fict.
The bill ratifying the treaty passed
the first reading and then recess
was taken to give the parties an OPP
portunity to discuss the resolution.
After Is minutes the assembly re-
convened and DR. Schiller national
liberal leader and former minister Of
finance, stated that he regretted the
introduction of the resolution as 1t
would only serve to confuse the sit
uation. A clerical speaker said the
time for reservations was passed. The
conservatives defended the resolution
but it was decisively beaten.
The treaty bill was then taken up
and Immediately passed second and
third readings, with the opposition
coming from democrats. national lib
erals and conservatives. Dr. Brin.
hardt Dernburg, former minister Of
finance, Frederick Won Payer, former
imperial vice chancellor and a few
other democrats voted for ratifica-
ton.

Y. w. C.. A. is LOOKING
AFTER FRENCH BRIDES
Girls who Marry American Soldiers
Cared for in Hostess House

st. Nazaire. France. (By the Associa-
ted Press )-French brides of American
soldiers on their way from France to
their new homes in America are enter
tained in the Hostess House here until
they and their husbands are ready to
go on board a steamer. Thus far, eighty
one Of these newly-made American wives
have been taken care of in this tenn
porary home for brides.
The work of caring for them is con-
Quoted by the Young Women's Christian
Association with five workers under the
charge Of Miss Mary Fay. The house
was opened May 1, and is located in a
grove Of trees outside the limits of the
mems camp.
The wives, many Of whom had never
been more than twenty miles from their
homes before are met at the station with
an automobile and taken to the Hostess
House, where they are given thorough
physical inspection. teeth examined and
any necessary work to be done on them
is here done. After this they are given
the opportunity to battle. change their
clothing and are assigned to a bed in one
of the spick and span dormotories. There
from then on until the time they board
the boat is chiefly occupied in learning
cises and recreations of various kinds
In the mornings and with their husbands
in the afternoons.
Ten days in the average time each girl
spends in this camp. From 1t she is taken
directly to the boat, where she again
meets her husband. he having been trans
ferred from his organization to a casual
company so that they can take the same
boat back. That the government is doing
everything in its power to make their
life while still in the army happy one
is very evident.
| month ago 1t was estimated that ac-
commodations for fifty-five would be am
pie for this camp. That was less than
month ago. To-day there are accommo-
dations for one hundred and twenty and
more barracks are being built. The 18th
Cavalry alone brought ffty-one newly
married men and their wives. And now
thai the services of supply troops are
going through here fast 1t is suspected
that the Hostess House may be swamped
for these troops, unlike the combat troops
have been stationed in one place most
or their time over here and have mad
the opportunity to win and wed some
dainty French girl.

FINE RABBI $40 FOR
KEEPING UNLICENSED DOG
First Prosecution OF Its Kind in Rut-
land for Several YeaTw

Rutland. July 13.-The first prosecution
which ever took place in this oity. In re-
cent years at least, for keeping a dog
which had not been licensed. took place
in city court Saturday when Judge
George n. Goddard fined Samuel Fried
man, a Jewish rabbi, $40 and costs OF $6
for the offense. His black and tan dog
bit a child recently and this led to the
discovery that the canine was not IL
censed. The rabbi said that he bought the
animal two weeks ago from man In
Mendon and supposed that the dog was
licensed there but he failed to have
recorded here the fact that the dog
changed its residence.
A similar complaint has been lodged
against Charles Turner of Rutland and
ne is to have a trial by jury July Il,
Turner has valuable collie presented
him by the late United States Senator
Redfeld Proctor The city oficials have
endeavored to have the dog done away
with because 1t had a habit of jumping
at horses and they refused 1t license.
Turner took the dog to Clarendon and
got It licensed. The city officers have
ordered 1t killed. refusing to recognize
the Cladendon license. Turner has
secreted the animal and the police can
not find It,
