ENGLISH AND
 SPANISH KINGS SEND MESSAGES
Continued from Page One)

Tt gives me deep pleasure to ex- press to you my conviction of the truth of your generous message con- corning the great encs which have been attained by the present peace and the new ties which have been created between your own great peo- pie and ours. We are on the eve of realizing, more than we could realize them at the time, the real objects of the great war
 "The free peoples of the world, united to defeat the enemies of liberty and justice, have through their repre- sentatives wrought out a plan by which they may remain united in free partnership of intimate council to promote the cause of justice and of freedom through the beneficent pro- cess of peace and the accords of liberal policy. It is within the choice of the thoughtful men of every na- ton to enrich the peace by their counsel. I am happy to echo your greetings at this momentous history because they give promise of a peace in which justice will not be imperilled by selfish initiative on the part of any single nation.
 May I express my best wishes for the security and happiness of your people,
 King Alfonso of Spain sent this message:
 "On the occasion of the signing of the peace in which you have, in con- junction with your country taken such a preponderating part, I am pleased to send you my most sincere congratulations and I ask you to ac- cept my very best wishes and those of Spain for the happiness and prosper ity of the United States of America in the new era now beginning. I wish you, Mrs. Wilson and Miss Wilson a good journey"
 In reply, the president said:
 "I greatly appreciate your message, I rejoice with you over the signing of the peace and look forward with equal confidence to a new cay in which it will be possible to give peace Il new significance for the nations through common counsel of Almighty and cooperative nation and I am sure that I am expressing the feeling of the people of the United States in wishing for the fruits of the better day"

 with the intention of one arrest serv- ing as test case. United States Dis trict Attorney Crosby of Hartford had previously announced he would do all in his power to enforce the law.
 Thomas F. Flynn, said that con- certed action depended on word from New Haven for which he was wait ing. ''It is hard to say how many saloons in Bridgeport will remain open and how many will c1ose,' said MT. Flynn, "but it is my belief enough will remain open to provide test case. I intend to conduct business as usual unless I receive contrary advice from the attorneys for the Liquor Dealers Association.
 Cafes throughout the city did a big business all morning and early this afternoon. The daisy, emblem of pro- test against prohibition was in .evi- dence on 1apels or coats, and adorned practically every bar in the city.

TEUTON ENVOYS LEAVE FRANCE
 FOR GERMANY
(Continued from Page One)

(Continued from Page One) 1ems before the Allies and preparing reports upon the conference will act. President Wilson is on his way to America. Premier Lloyd George is in England and many of the other lead- ing figures of the peace conference have left Paris temporarily. Of the American delegation, only Secretary of State Robert Lansing and General Tasker H. Bliss are at the French capital. The principal German dele gates will leave Versailles for Ger many today.
 Within the next 30 days the allies will submit to the German govern ment a list of persons who are charg- ed with responsibility for causing the war, or who are alleged to have vfo- lated the rules of civilized warfare. In this connection, Dr. Theobald Won Bethmann-H Hollweg, who held the office of Imperial German Chancellor in 1914, when the war broke out, has formally asked the allies to place him on trial instead of former Emperor William. The former chancellor as sumes full and complete responsibility for the acts of Germany during his incumbency. even bearing the blame for the political acts of the former emperor.
 Since the signing of the treaty, little has come out of Germany to indicate the frame of mind of the German people generally, nor have the disor- ders which seemed very serious dur ing the past three weeks assumed a more threatening aspect The rail- road strike which last week virtually paraylzed traffic in Berlin and seemed about to spread throughout the coun- try has been settled, it is announced. Government troops, sent to restore order in Hamburg, where there were serious riots during the past fortnight, have withdrawn from that city and left it in the hands of the provisional government that was established by the radicals. This retirement, how ever. may be only temporarily.
 In Breslau, however, there Is a sit uation that seems to be serious for the moment, at least. Martial law has been proclaimed there following the entry of government troops who have taken over control of the railway situ= ation from the strikers.

STAMPS BACK
 ON PRE-WAR
 FOOTING AGAIN

With the demobilization of the three cent stamp, the pre-war, more welcome two cent stamp will be ush- cred in tomorrow. Post office officials are of the belief that the busiest day of the year in the stamp departme ent will occur tomorrow since it is as stunned that the majority of firms have held up the mailing of monthly state ments and bills this month so as to take advantage of the two cent stamp.
 Periodicals, circulars, and other ar ticles of mail sent out in bulk by various firms have no doubt also been held up until July 1. Although the stamps have been on sale for the past week, they could not be used on mail able articles until tomorrow when the wartime stamp will go out of fash ion.
