Did Wilson Hare
Copy Of address?

Clemenceau's speech, delivered in
Paris Sunday night, appeared in the
London papers Monday afternoon. 1t
would be interesting to learn whether
Mr. Wilson received a copy of it be-
fore he delivered his address in Man
chester Monday midday.
In that address he said speaking of
the league Of nations. "lf the future
had nothing for US but a new attempt
to keep the world in right poise by a
balance of power. the United States
would take no interest. because it Will
join no combination of powers which
is not a combination of all of us. She
is not interested merely in the peace
of Europe. hut in the peace of the
world
The President did not explain what
he meant by "a combination of all of
us" He did say: I'm the past the
world was governed. or at any late, an
attempt was made to govern. BY part
nerships in interest. They have broken
down.
There is only one Thing he added,
that can bind peoples together. That
is, common devotion 20 right" He
concluded by saying:
81 wish we could--not only for Brit
ain sand the United States, but for
France, for Italy and the world enter
into a great league covenant, declar-
ing ourselves first for all the friends
of mankind and uniting ourselves to-
gether for the maintenance and the
triumph of the right"
Surely nobody can interpret these ut
terances as committing the President
to the theory of league OF nations
which shall embrace an unrepentant
and unregenerate Germany. She is not
zone of US" A statement by her that
she is the friend of mankind would
provoke only derision.

LONDON, Jan. 2.-The Presidents
visit to England has come to an end
and an appraisal of its results NAV
now be attempted
Every American must be gratified
by the character of his reception, for
the spontaneous outpouring of the peo-
pie TO greet him was hardly personal
England felt no intimate acouaintance
with Mr.. Wilson and he humorously
referred to that fact in one of his
addresses.
The initial demonstrations at least
were tribute to the great sister
nation overseas whose effective CO.
operation enabled the Allies to de-
stroy the power Of Germany. which
menaced their vely existence.
In France the greeting was some
thing more. France is war weary. She
yearns tor an enduring peace. French
men almost pathetically looked to Mr.
Wilson for a magic remedy which
would remove from them the fear of q
recurrence of the horrors which dur.
ing four and half years blghtec
their fair fields, destroyed their pict-
uresque cities, consumed their youths
and maidens, and threatened their civ.
ilization. SO they welcomed President
Wilson with a frantic, passionate anc
united enthusiasm.

President Wilson's visit to Rome, where
he will meet Premier Orlando and
Baron Sonnino, is not merely for re-
ceiving his third instalment of grateful
acclamation, but it has much more
important underlying motive.
As is we'll known, Italy at present
is passing through somewhat serious
political crisis from the Entente point
of view. AMI it is believed here thai
the visit of Mr. Wilson viii go long
way toward resolving the present stu
alton.
Not only is Italy. as is generally be
lieved here, standing for the moment
upon the Pact Of London, to which
Americs is not party. but it is ap-
parent tc the disinterested observer
that whereas Baron Sonnino regards
the 1ugoslav ambitions with consider
able doubt. Orlando appears to be dis
tinctly in favor of a rapprochement be
tween Italy and her new neighbors.
Mr. Wilson plans to stay in Italv
four days only, but it is just possible
that the political crisis there may de-
lay his return and consequently post
rone the opening of the intcr-Al,cd
conference.

emergencies which nigh. cause the
opening of informal conferences among!
the Allies to be delayed beyond Janu

England Doubts
ind Questions

The feeling of England was less un-
mixed with doubt Its outpouring was
more to the representative than to the
man. The conviction that the exist
cnce OF England depends upon her mas
terry of the seas is bred in the bone
of every Briton. The Presidents pro-
posal that the terms of peace shall
insure all nations "absolute freedom
of navigation upon the seas outside
of territorial waters, alike in peace
closed in whole or in part by interna-
tonal action for the enforcement of
International covenants" has awakened
in the mind of all England a feeling
of doubt and question as to its precise
meaning and disturbing apprehension
Of discord IN the coming peace CON
ference. For it may be safely pre-
dlcted that England never Will agree
to conditions which she would regard
as national suicide.
President Wilson's visit in large
measure dispelled the feelings aroused
by his proposals concerning freedom
of the seas. Never has he appeared
to better advantage than during his
sojourn in this country. He was pleas
ant, cordial and frank in manner. His
oratory was delivered in that quiet
restrained, cultivated tone which is the
ideal in England of public speaking.
Prominent Engiishmen, describing
the Guildhall banquet, said the Presi-
dent "ftted into the picture perfectly
as though he belonged there He
presented himself to the English peo-
pie as a product of English tradition.

1000 Babies
Suffer as Milk
Supply Drops
Million-Quart Shortage Ex-
pecied To-day; Official
Asks Adult Consumers'Aid

A milk shortage, menacing the lives
of thousands of infants and endanger-
ing the recovery of soldiers and
sailors in tho base hospitals here
threatens to grip New York City to-
day.
DR.. Royal L. Copeland, the Health
Commissioner, estimated last night
that milk receipts to-day would drop
100000 quarts below the city's nor
NAL daily supply of 1,SS0,0oO quarts.
He declared that 1000 children, who
look to the baby health stations for
their daily nourishment, went without
their customary quart of Grade A
milk yesterday.
While the dairymen and the pro
ducers were still deadlocked over their
price schedule and no means of re
lieving the critical situation were
available Dr. Copeland took steps to
cause the hotels and restaurants,
which use approximately 40 per cent
of the daily milk receipts. TO curb
their consumption. in order to assure
the children and the sick of adequate
supplies. He said that he felt almost
certain that. with conservation prac-
ticed by households and public eating
places, little suffering would ensue
The estimates on to-day's milk re-
ceipts, made by several Of the larger
distributors last night. were far more
optimistic .!than those of Dr. Cope

5000 Freight
Quit.
Embargo Starts
Increase in Wages and Basic
Eiglnt-Hour Day Is De-
manded by Onion Heads

Freight handlers employed on the
New York Central struck yesterday
morning to enforce their demands for
the basic eight hour day and revision
upward of their wage scale. BY night
fall the strike had spread to the Penn
sylvania, the Erie and the Baltimore &
Ohio, with the threat that by morning
the employees of every road having ter
minals on the North River would be
involved
In consequence of the strike, the
New York Central last night issued
notice that it had declared an embargo
on all freight routed for this port.
Similar action on the part of other
roads is expected to-day, unless in the
meantime the strike is settled and the
5000 men now out return to work
The cause Of the strike, according to
F. Paul A. Nacareli, acting chairman of
Freight Handlers Union 976. Interna-
tonal Longshoremens Association, of
which parent organization he is vice
president, in formal statement issued
last night was the failure Of the wages
and conditions board Of the United
States Railroad Administration to act
on grievances.
Wire Brings No Action
Earlier in the day ne wired George
II. Sines, head Of this board, that the
men had gone on strike and asked that
help in getting them back to work. Up
to midnight he had received no answer.
The demands of the men are for the
basic eight-hour day, an increase in
wages from AZ to so cents an hour,
with time and half for overtime and
Sundays and holidays. This, they
claim, was theoretically awarded them
by Director General Of Railroads Nc
Adoo, when he placed all railroad en-
ployes on an eight-hour basis. To date,
however, they say they have been paid
the same hourly rate for twelve hours
work ten-hour day.
These demands, according to Mr..
Nacarelli, were presented TO Mr. Sines
on November /, and action looking tow
ard relief was then promised Two
weeks ago when no relief was IN sight,
the men fixed January | as their time
limit, and no action coming up to mid
night yesterday, they declared the

U. S. AIR FORCES
BADLY CRIPPLED
Inadequate for War with
Mexico, Gen. Mitchell
Tells Committee.

From a force of 10000 men, includ-
ing nearly 1000 trained fiiers, at the
time Of the signing of the armistice,
the army Air Service has been al
lowed to disintegrate to a point where
only s65 aviators now remain avail
able for duty.
Brig. Gen William, Mitchell, direc-
tor OF military aeronautics, yesterday
revealed this startling condition to
the aviation subcommittee of the
House Military Affairs Committee.
which Is considering legislation to
establish a separate air department
The situation is such, Gen. Mitchell
said, that in the event of war with
Mexico the United States would find
itself dependent upon Great Britain
and France for effective fighting air
craft.
While the War Department has
done virtually nothing toward the
development of aviation since the
armistice. the committee was told.
such advancement has been made in
Europe that all of the army's flying
equipment, which was considered
the best in the wofld a year ago, to-
day is obsolete.
Responsibility for the failure OF
the United States to keep pace with
the other countries was placed
squarely upon Congress by Gen.
Mitchell.
Gen. Mitchell said $50, ,o0o. 900 will
be needed this year and no less than
$4,000 for each year thereafter, to
put the United States on an equality
in the air with other great nations.
