jet for conjecture. according to those
who are following closely its course.
It 10 explained. however, that two
courses are open to Mr.. Wilson. One
leaves the entire question OF peace with
Germany and the league Of nations to
the new administration, which as
sumes it's administrative power next
March 4. The other is for President
Wilson to resubmit the treaty to- the
Senate at the session which begins
early in December.
1t is pointed out that unless the
treaty is resubmitted to the Senate,
that body at it's coming session could
act on the question of peace with Ger
many only by resolution. such as was
offered by Senator Knox during the
past session and passed by the Sem
ate. but which was vetoed by the
President.

RECLASS|F|CAT|ON
EXTENSION SOUGHT
Bill to Apply It Outside OF
Washington Before Meet
inq Today.

.Preparation of a bill to extend re-
classification to the entire civil service
of tho country as wen as to government
employees in the District was in its final
processes today at a meeting held in the
Once Of Chairman Lehlbach Of the House
committee on reform In the civil service
That the bill to be presented by Mr..
Iehlbach will ask the extension Of re-
classification to all federal workers
throughout the country was the i'm
portant feature Of the meeting, pre-
sided over by Robert Moses. reclassif-
cation expert, who is working for the
committee.
Further Changes.
Chairman Lehibach is expected in
Washington either late today or tornor-
row, when it Is anticipated he will give
tn revised bill careful attention, and
Indicate how the revision must be
changed yet to meet with his approval.
Extension Of the scope OF reclaSSInca-
fisn legislation to the whole country
would be q vast step over the rec,2ssih-
cation report. which was confined merely
to the government service in the Dis
tr3ct. The National Federation OF Fed
eel Employees and other organizations
have been fighting to get the entire
personnel Of the country's civil service
rdclassif1ed-
Nr. Lehlbach will have complete fig
ufes to show Congress just what re-
classification will cost. how it will
affect the government service here,
what changes 1t will neceesitate on
accounting and just how the employees
must be allecated to positions under
re<.lassi ficxtinn.- - -
Would Cost Millions.
What effect extension of reclassifi-
cation to the entire country would
have on the cost Of such legislation is
still much a matter Of speculation 1t
is anticipated that reciassifying
merely the service hare. with such
minimum revision Of basic salari es
AS u deemed necessary, would entail
The expenditure OF milhons Of dollars.
Extension OF the benefits OF such q
Decentralization to tho entire country
would necessarily sand the cost Of the
project soaring. How thu now admin
1strstion and the republican House
and Senate viii look ct the matter
remains to BE- seen. although there
