SAYS HOLLAND WILL NOT
GIVE KAISER TO ALLIES

PARIS, Jan. 20.-Belief that the ef-
forts Of the allies to get former EN- :
peror William out Of Hollan would
prove unsuccessful was expressed to-
day by Baron Kurt Won Lersner, Ger
many's chief representative here. .
II am absolutely sure that the Dutch
government will never surrender the
former German emperor for trial on
charges that are not provided for in
any constitution, any laws or any
treaties regarding extraditions,' he
said. With regard to the expected de-
mand for the extradition Of German
subjects for trial for acts committed
during the war, he declared himself
certain public sentiment in every coun-
try was against such a demand.
ut is contrary to n law or any
precedent" he said. 1.-THE feeling Of
the whole world in favor of peace is
stronger than the feeling anywhere for
revenge. 1 hope strongly that the al.
lied statesmen will find a solution OF
in tranquility"

BLOCK extension
OF AERIAL MAIL
IN i. 5. SENATE
Republicans Bitter Against
Leader MOndeII Of the
House for Fighting Plan Of
BurIeSOn to Extend Service.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20-Bitter CON
demnation Of the leadership Of Repre-
sentative Frank w. Mondell, Of Wyom-
ing, has broken out again among the
Republican members in the house. That
their leader had insisted upon denying
the aerial mail service every opportu-
nifty for extension and also every APP
preparation to continue the service now
installed has caused prominent Repub-
licans to say they were ashamed Of their
leadership.
The action Of Mondell will result in
failure for the plan of Postmaster-Gen-
eral BurleSon to extend the aerial mail
service to various cities n states. 1t
is possible the Republicans will start
an insurgent movement and succeed in
overthroWing Mondell on this question
at least. They will do so If the senate
does not provide for the continuation
of the service, it was asserted.
Postmaster General Burleson asked
for SO, 900, 900 for aerial mail service.
He reviewed the successes already had
and insisted that If given the additional
SO, 900, 900 he would effect actual money
savings of more than this amount. He
showed that in the service now existing
between New York and Washington and
New York and Chicago sufficient money
had been saved to pay the total ex-
pense.
Mr.. Burleson proposed that four adj
ditional lines should be started at once,
one Of which would connect up Pitts
burgh, Columbus, Indianapolis and st.
Louis and eventually would have pro-
vided for extension into New York, a
very little matter, once the main line
between Pittsburgh and st. Louis was
established. Through these lines 1t
would have been possible to put 1ndiana
business in very close touch with the
East, because the mail time would have
been reduced by one-half at least.
The house committee brought in a
proposal that only $3.50, 500 should be
appropriated, but the moment consid-
Grafton was given on the floor 1t was
seen amendments would be offered to
provide at least $4,000, 900 and probably
the 49, 900, 900 requested by the post
master general. Sentiment in the house
was overwhelmingly in support of the

CLAIM HUNS DECIDED
TO SURRENDER SOON

BASEL, Ian. 2O.-The German cabi-

Baden, as chancellor, had decided, be-
fore the revolutionary overturn of No
vember, 1918, that it would make an
offer of surrender to the entente, ac-
| cording to Otto Landsberg, majority
socialist leader, and secretary for pub
licity in the present ministry, as quoted
in a Cologne dispatch.
Herr Landsberg made this statement
during a conference of majority So
cialists, revealing what he said he had
been unable to disclose before peace
had been definitely concluded. He de-
clared that on Nov. s, 1918, four days
before the revolution, the cabinet of
the empire had proposed to offer the
entente the complete c~apitulation of
Germany,

MUNICIPAL MARKET
PLAN IS |ND0RSED
Park View Association
Adopts ResoIutior-0f-
ficers Are Elected.

Additional support was given the
plan for the municipal wholesale
market. to be erected in the vicinity
of the municipal fish market. by the
adoption of resolution indorsing
the plan at a meeting of the Park
View Citizens Association last night
in the Park View School.
c. II. Hensen presented the reSo-
luton. He told of the economy of
the plan compared with the present
conditions on handling wholesale
produce. The principal savings, he
pointed out. would be in the cut on
drayage necessities. At present prod
uce. fruits and vegetables are hauled
from the freight terminal to cold
storage storehouse. From the store
house they are hauled to the plant
of the wholesaler for sale. From
the plant of the wholesaler they are
hauled again to the final destination.
the retailer. Through the crystalli-
Zation of the municipal produce mar
ket plan two of these drayage' trips
would be eliminated. and the savings
would enable the dealer to sell at a
margin of profit much lower than
the prevailing one.
The goods would be placed in the
cold storage plant erected at the
freight terminal. establishment of
which would follow the building of
goods could be shown. he said. at
the market. while the bulk of produce
would remain above in cold storage.
The only drayage trip would be from
wholesaler to retailer, saving thou
sands of dollars each year.
Salvatore Scalco. originator of the
project gave a short talk before the
association. He declared that the es-
tablishment Of the market would
mean the virtual elimination of the
section along wholesale row." He
said that the merchants would not
ask any appropriation from Congress
and that the railroads had consented
to construct side tracks for the ac-
commodation of the market.
A resolution of sympathy for the
family of the late Maj. r. w. Pull
man. superintendent of police, was
adopted.
Officers for the coming year were
elected. as follows: George H. Rus
sell, president; c. w. Gilmore, vice
president; H. F. Harmon, secretary;
A. 3. Clark, treasurer, and John S.
