PEACE PRIZE FOR WILSON

Tine Nobcl Peace Prize for 1920 has been bestowed upon President Wilson, Now, nose who love argument for its own sake Nll discuss lcugthly his right to the honor.
 This much is certain, an hairsphttcrs to .Ic couuary. No other in 1920 strovc more han he to forward the cause of world peace.
 And no other gave more to that cause ham lc
 Cam the debate mot rest there
 Time alone will tell how endwiugly he achieved and alone can prove whether his .rons. if successful. would have lowered maub.ud with enduring peace or merely have laid the foundation for century of war;
 In this hom we can not even gauge the uI crcc, of a single winged pmase-"s self determination of pcoplcs.'
 Wla, does 1t mean! How far does 1t cN- .udI Does make forpcacc or is 1t tmcre- Ir am excuse for intending strife.

RESUME SALVAGE OF
 CRUISER LAURENTIC

LONDONDERRY, July g (by Asso- ciated Press) Efforts will be resum- ed this summer to recover the 4,000,- 900 pounds of gold still lying in the wreck of the British auxiliary cruis- CT Laurentic which was sunk by a mine off the mouth of the Lough Swilly in January, 1917, while on her way to New York. The bullion is in bars each of which is worth 1900 pounds. Altogether the Laurentic carried about 7,OO0,OOO pounds in gold when sunk. It is estimated that about 3,O00,000 pounds has since been recovered.
 Up to now the weather has been uEfavorable and, as the wreck lies in an exposed position, the salvage work can be done only in the finest weather. It is expected that some blasting will be necessary to get at the compartments in which the gold was carried. The work is being done by the Racer a salvage ship.
