ter example Of the metamorphosis
could have been had than In an Incl

great Long Island concentration camp
where the men were equipped just be-
fore sailing.
One of the old-style officials was
holding a meeting and was expatiating
at length on the care the men should
take Of their souls. His audience, al

Of training. was restless and grew

The camp secretary watched with
dismay the effect the speaker was
having on the soldiers about to sail.
The climax came when the parson,
after final appeal to the men to face
death bravely, said:
we VIII now sing Ring the Bells
Of Heaven"
That was too much for the local
camp man and he Jumped to his feet,
holding up his hand to the man at the
piano to stop. Then he shouted:
Boys, before We sing this ring the
Bells Of Heaven don't let US forget
that first we must Wiring the kaiser's

The shout that went up broke up
the abashed parsons meeting and

PRESIDENT IS
BACK NPAR|S
FORPARLEYS

PARIS. Jan. I.-President Wilson
returned to Paris from his Italian
trip iat s:ss this morning.
He was expected today TO plunge
immediately into the finsi preiini-
-nariss that Sin precede formal peace
dsiiberationss Of the associated pow
era O.
The President returned from Italy
armed with the obvious support Of
the common people Of that country.
This Endorsement, added to the ap-
parent backing of his peace program
by the majority Of public opinion in
Great Britain and France, was re-
'gzrded in official circles as giving
him an initial advantage in the ap-
preaching conversations.
Inasmuch as Wilson declared in his
Milan speech that peace must be, die
tated by the common people. II is be-
lieved he feels he has accomplished
through this apparent public indorse-
ment the greater part OF what he
sought in coming to Europe.
The joint conference of the Ameri-
can, British, italian and French dele
cations, which, 1t Is believed in many
quarters, will constitute the real
peace congress, was expected to get
under way no later than the first
Of next week.
There was some talk In unofficial
circles that any scheduled formal
conversations might be adjourned to-
morrow-the date OF Colonel Roose-
velt's funeraHout Of respect.

TIPPED Off GERMAN
SAYS MEANS

CASTOR Means, appearing before the
Senate German propaganda probers
today, while denying testimony he
said reflected on his loyalty, said:
That he discovered how the Lusi-
tania was lured to her doom by a
German submarine wireless. and
That he tipped off to this Govern
ment Huerta's plot to return to Mex
leo.
Means said he wished 10 deny testi-
money by A. Bruce Bielaski. of the
Department Of Justice, which he felt
questioned his loyalty. He claimed
Bielaski was angry because he had
not reported to him instead OF to
other Government officials.

Lusitanla was lured to its doom by
a German submarine which wireless

Won Papen had secured a British code
from a Canadian in this country, and
this code was used in sinking the
Lusitania. When the Germans in
serted ads in New York papers warn
ing Americans to stay off the Lusi-
tania, they knew how the ship was
to be lured to it's destruction"
Means said he got 500 a day from
the Germans. with the promise, or a
$500 weekly bonus If he mads good.
This pay continued from 1875 until
after Boy-Ed's recall. he said.

WEBB-KENY0N LAW
UPHELD BY COURT

The Supreme Co !rt OF the United
States in a decision this afternoon
held that the Webb-Kenyon law for
bidding shipment Of liquor into a dry
State is constitutional and does not
violate the constitution in the regula-
tion Of interstate commerce.
The validity of the statute was at
tackled on the grounds that it had not
been given the legal number of votes
required In the Senate to pass a bill
over the Presidential veto.
The court holds that the law is
valid because the required vote is not
two-thirds OF the total number of the
members OF the Senate, but two,
thirds Of q quorum OF the Senate.
The Webb Kenyon bill was passed un-
der the latter conditions.

OF RAILROADS
IS OPPOSED BY.
Ice. MAJORITY.

q 81.
The views Of members of the In
terstate Commerce Commission on
what shall be done with the rail-
roads were laid before the Senate
Interstate Commerce Committee to-
day by Commissioner Edgar Clark.
All members of the commission,
with the exception Of Commissioner
Robert Woolley, believe, Mr.. Clark
said, it would not be "wise or best
at this time to assume Government
ownership or operation" Of the rail-
roads.
Mr.. Woolley attacked the majority
view, and came out fiat-footedly for
Director General McAdoo's five-year
control plan. To return the roads
to private ownership immediately
would send many Of them into bank
ruptcy, he added.
= CIark's Recommendations.
In his direct testimony Commits
sioner Clark gave no opinion of the
McAdoo plan. He submitted many
recommendations on the elimination
of competition. the limitation of rail-
ROAD construction In areas where ad-
ditional construction is not neces-
sary, the common use OF facilities
and terminals and the elimination OF
bankers control.
Mr.. Clark recommended tha. the
Interstate Commerce Commission be
constituted a sort Of supreme court
for the railroads with authority to
examine all books and papers of :he
railroads. to fix wages, and to reg
ulate living conditions OF railway
workers.
Favors More U. s Regulation.
"It seems obvious" he said, that
no plan Of private ownership should
be considered unless il be under q
broadened. extended and amplified
governmental regulation. Considering
and Weighing as best we can gil OF
the arguments for and against the
different plans, we are led to the
conviction that with the adoption OF
appropriate provisions and safeguards
for regulation under private owner
ship it would not be wise or best al
this time to assume government own
crship or operation of the railways
OF the country"
Creation Of a secretary OF railroads
as a member of the Cabinet, with
wide regulatory powers, Will be
urged by railroad executives when
they appear this week before the COM
mittee.
