government during the war. Fore
most among these were questions
concerning employment ana OF OBJ

PRESIDENT TO Tell
OF PEACE PARLEYS
Paris Dispatches Says He
Will Discuss ''WhoIe Sub
ject" Before Congress.
TOUR OF COUNTRY URGED

President Wilson will address Con-
of the Paris peace negotiations imme-
diately after his return to the United
States, according to dispatches receiv-
ed here today
1t is understood that the President
is being urged by his advisers to
make a speaking tour over the coun-
ry after he addresses Congress.
There We're indications in admins
tration circles today that the Presi-
dent was seriously considering the ad-
visibility of making the suggested
trip.
Foreign Criticism Grows Less.
The dispatches to the White House
today intimate that the criticism of
the President in certain foreign quar-
ters, reported early in the week, was
abating.
The White House still is without in
formation as to when the President
will cable his address to be read at
the opening of the extra session of
Congress. but officials expect it next
week.
Although the procedure to be fol-
INV GU "HCh SOh6 cSS seems " lotily
the President that it is ready to re-
ceive a communication from him has
not yet been determined definitely. Of
f1cfals considered it probable that
Vice President Marshall would be
asked by President Wilson to act for
him in receiving the congressional
committee and in transmitting his
message.
Still Opposes Italy's Claim.
Reports from Paris that President
Wilson had committed himself to a
proposal to settle the Fiume dispute
by giving that port to Italy after
1923 were said in dispatches to the
White House today to be absolute
fiction"
1t appeared from today's advices
that the President had not deviated
in the slightest from his Original
stand in opposition to Italy's claim
to this Adriatic port.

tions will be taken. however, by the

Rain Didn't Stop Rush.
There was rush to the banks early
today by subscribers to the loan Not
withstanding the rainy weather. the
enthusiasm for the loan appeared on
the increase.
The army of loan workers in the
District strained every nerve to have
the campaign wind up with the Ma
tional Capital far over it's quota of
$50, 307 900 The central liberty loan
committeerof Washington appealed to
the people of Washington to subscribe
ground that the capital should main
tain its splendid record of past lib
erty. loans. when it went far over its
allotted quota, and on the ground that
as the capital of the nation, Washing
ton should set the pace for the entire
country in this patriotic duty.
Emphasis was laid on the fact that
persons subscribing to the bonds
need not pay the entire sum. At any
of the banks, it was pointed out,
! 500 bond could be subscribed for by
making initial payment of $40. and a
i $50 bond with a payment of SIS, SINH

Owing to the rain, plans for con-
certs by Gen. Pershing's famous band

not in the White House and that he ;s

 AmericaniZatiO1

The Americaniza ton meeting at the Ligh school last evening was not as numerous1y attended as it should have been by the superintendents, employment men and foremen of the East Side factories, but it proved Q very useful and enthusiastic meeting

 Director Wheaton of the State Anericanization Department was at his best and made a strong and pow erfu1 presentation of the need of America nization work for the econ only of our industries.
 Mayor Wilson reached the meeting somewhat late and made an excellent short talk.
 Secretary Bradley of the Ameri- canization committee was also heard in a short speech.
 At the conclusion of the speaking the meeting was thrown open to dis cussion and as a result. four resoIu- tions were passed as follows:
 That the sUpertntendents, employ nent managers and foremen of the East Side industries cordially approve of the plan of an independent State Department of Americanizati ton with an adequate maintenance appropria- tion.
 That it is advisable that each in dustry cause to be made a survey containing a list of the non-English speaking empIoyes together with the night school which each could most conveniently attend And that we use our best efforts to get all the non English speaking employees to regis ter in these night schools.
 That the Americanization commit tee should organize in the several night schools classes in civics to teach the subjects which aliens should know, and that American history and American ideals should be emphasiz- ed, and that instruction in naturali- zation should be given at an early day.
 That each industry organize a fac tory committee on Americanization and that all groups of foreign born be represented on such committee
 The method of making a survey and having all non-English speaking register in the night school has all ready been adopted by the Crane Company under the direction or As sistant Manager A. E. Mcdonald Its practicability has already been demonstrated.
