PREMIER IF BRITAIN IN
 NEW CRISIS
Lloyd George to Face Critics
 in House of Commons, En- gazing in a General Debate
Governments Policy at Peace Conference Under Fire;
 Press Criticizes Minister

LONDON, April 15.-(By the Asso- ciated Press Ut has fallen to the lot of David Lloyd George, as has>befaIlen few of his predecessors in the pre- mier's office, to meet and grapple with highly charged political and personal crises.
 The prime minister left the Paris conference yesterday for a brief meet ing with the members of the house of commons. He had stormy passage of the channel in a destroyer, and will return to Paris Thursday with his mis- sion accomplished. Now he will acquit himself as subject which is agitating politicians as few topics of the past few months have stirred them
 The purpose of the premier's visit is to explain the governments policy and his personal part in the conference. He will confront house of commons which contains sharply critical fac tiOn, and, indirectly, will reply to the critical section of the press. of which Lord Northcliffe's Daily Mail has been the leader. The tenor of the criticism directed against him is that he has been too lenient towards Germany and has relented from his election pledges to make Germany pay all the costs of the war and to punish the former em- peror.
 The premier's reply has awakened so much interest that the demand for seats in the house of commons is great, since it became known he would speak on these topics. Interest is heightened by the fact that the coun- cil of four has decided that the terms of the peace treaty should not be pub lished until after they have been pre- sented to the Germans.
 The premier will have a most deli cate diplomatic feat to perform in sat isfying the curiosity of the whole country and parrying his critics. without telling more than the compact with his Paris colleagues permits.
 Mir. Lloyd George scored a tactical point, or Andrew Bonar Law did in his behalf. yesterday by the statement that the premier will conclude the de bate. His critics had expected him to make his explanations first, and that they would thereby be given ann intuition with which to lombard him. Instead of this, the critics must launch their arrows first, and largely in the dark, and will thus give him the advantage. the premier's friends say, of exposing their ignorance.

AUDITOR REFUSES
 TOPAY l5 CLAIMS
Claims Not Covered by Spe- cific Appropriations Are
 Held Invalid
CRy Review Leased wlrel

PHOENIX. April 15.-John Boyce, state auditor, announced tonight that under the provisions of senate bill No. 90, as interpreted by his office and backed by the legal opinion of Attorney General Wylie Jones he will refuse to pay claims not covered by specific appropriations.
 Boyce' named the following fifteen accounts to issue warrants after the new law goes into effect June IS:
 National guard salaries; printing reports of state officers; printing de- cisions of the supreme court; state tax commission expenses outside of salaries; state board of equalization expenses; state veterinarians mile age; premiums on bonds of state of ficers; loans to counties for bridge building; state funds for high and normal schools for teaching voca. tional work; county fair assistance; {; county scholarships; county commits sioner expenses; expenses and mile aeg of state health officer; expenses of superior judges sitting as supreme court justices; vocational education.
 Senate bill No. 90 provided that it would be punishable offense for a state officer, board or commission to exceed the appropriation for the ifs cal year. Unless amended the new law will go into effect June 30.
 Boyce's refusal to issue warrants is expected in capital circles to pre- cipitate a legal battle, the first stage of which probably will be an at tempt to obtain a court order forcing the state auditor to issue the dis puted warrants.
 On senate bill No. 90, as touching the tax commission, Governor Camp bell announced today he had obtained legal advice ito the effect that it would operate against the commits sion's continuing fund. and that it would have the one effect of forcing the state to designate for what par. ticular purposes taxes are being raised, Instead of Jumping the entire levy in the general fund.

German Congress .Adjourns After Independents Re

BERLIN, April 15.-(By the Asso- ciated Press)-At the final session yesterday of the soviet congress pro posal to send a committee of inves- tigation to Russia was referred to the central council. and motion con demning Germany's foreign policy was adopted. The council then elect ed a central council.
 The central council was declared thehighest authority of all the work CTS and peasants councils and fixing the numbers of members at twenty eight
 The congress adjourned after a futile effort on the part of the ma jorities to induce the independents to accept ten seats in the new central council. A motion by the independ- ents in favor of equal representa- tion of the two parties on the council was repjected.
 Haase's party, on a strict party strength basis, was only entitled to five seats, but the independents stub bornly refused to compromise. Hence the congress elected council of only twenty-one, leaving seven seats open for the indpendents.
 The council consists of sixteen of the majority socialists; two soldier delegates and three scattered.
 It is still possible that the inde- pendents will accept the seven prof fered seats

PEACE SOON
 TO BE FACT.
 |S PROMISE
Council Now Working on Plan to Be Followed When German Delegates Meet
Final Course to Be Pursued
 by Conference to Be Decid- ed by Big Four and House

PARIS, April 15.-(By the Associat- ed s.)-Now that the Germans have been called to Versailles on April 25, the indications are that the pro ceedings may move with such dispatch that President Wilson can remain for the signing of the treaty, and thus be able to take back the completed document
 This was the view of the presidents intimates today when their attention was called to the reports in French papers that his departure had been fixed for April 2S, It was declared that no such intention had been formed, and that the progress on the main questions gave promise that the presi- dent would not only attend the open ing of the congress at Versailles but would remain long enough to see it's work carried through, though pro- longed delay by the enemy delegates would, of course, prevent such action.
 Details Under Way
 Precise details of what is to be done on the arrival of the German delegates are being worked out. Preliminary to their arrival, plenary session of the peace conference is to be held at the foreign office for determination of the final course to be pursued by the allies before entering into relations with the German plenipotentaries.
 Whether the treaty and covenant will both be presented has not yet been decided, but it is probable that the treaty portion of the document will not be made public until after its delivery to the Germans.
 The procedure with the enemy pleni- potentiaries is also receiving atten- tion. One plan under consideration is for the council of four to hold the first meeting with the Germans and deliver the document This would not be a would be to arrange effective disposal of the business without prolonged dis cussion.
 End Now in Sight
 An alternative plan is for the entire membership of the peace conference to proceed to Versailles for formal session, at which the treaty would be delivered. President Wilson. Colonel House. the members of the council and officers of the protocol are work ing out these details.
 Premier Clemenceau on Sunday and President Wilson last night gave out statements showing the progress real ized and voicing their first official as surances that the end was in sight. It is noted that the Clemenceau and Will son statements were very general lacking specific details.
 And there is every reason to believe that the statement which the British prime minister, Mir Lloyd George, is expected to give out tomorrow, will be of the same general character.
