 MILITARY GOVERNOR OF METZ IS DEAD
By Associated Press

Paris. July ls.-General l.. E. De- Maud Huy, military governor of Metz died today
 General DeMaud'Huy was born In Lorraine. As child he witnessed the equalization of Metz to the Ger mans and thereafter consecrated himself to the task of aiding in the restoration of his province to France. At the age of l4 he left Lorraine for France; entered the St. Cyr niii- tary school at F and was graduated at 20 among the first of his class.
 At the outbreak of the war he was in temporary command of the SIX tenth division at Dyon, forming part of the Eighth corps of the armies of Lorraine. He mached on attack upon the heights dominating Blamont and entered SarrebourS August IS. 1914. The Second army under General DeCastelnau march, ing on Morhange having been ob- liged to retire, the division of Gen eral DeMaud' Huy was obliged to fol- low but reatreated under formal superior orders. His masterly con duct of this retreat and his success full execution of orders to throw the Germans back accross the Mortagne, during the battle of the Grand Cot rome de Nancy, earned him the com mand of the Eighteenth army corps, at the head of which he faced the Germans in, the battle of the Marne. On September es,. he was called to the command of the Tenth army and between October and 10 his men oh~ et ~ wo h corps and permitted the movement or the British troops toward the north in the race of the beliigerents to the sea.
 Among the best known exploits or tho Tenth army while under General DeMaud Huy's command was the capture of the heigths at Notre Dame de La Lorett dominating the fndustriaI center of Lens.

REQ UIREMENTS WOULD
 BE MADE PERMANENT I
By Associated Press

Washington, July 16.-The require ment that immigrants before sailing to the United States must have their passports vised by American consuls would be made permanent with some notifications under a bill intro duced today by Chairman Johnson of the House immigration committee.
 The measure provides for examina tion of prospective immigrants at American consulates abroad and would authorize the appointment Of experienced immigration inspectors and physicians as vice consuls to handle the work.
 Mir. Johnson explained in a state- ment that the vice consular inspec- tors would have authority to refuse vises to persons who did not measure up to the requirements of the im- migration laws This, he said, would "effectuate selection which would admit only the most desirable classes out of the millions now struggling to reach our shores"
 Declaring that enactment of the bill would prevent departure from foreign ports of aliens who cannot and should not be admitted" to this country, MT. Johnson said experience during the war had demonstrated the effectiveness of the passport wise system.
 Its continuance during peace times is desirable,2 the statement said, especially from the standpoint Of the prospective immigrant who in my opinion, is entitled to know De- fore he starts for the United States whether or not he will De admitted to our country"
 Mr. Johnson said the bill provides a system of selective imm gration such as has been advocated for nany years by the most advanced students of our immigration problem"
 The present passport wise system inaugurated during the war, has been extended until the end of the cur rent fiscal year by Congress,

O France has proved by acts speaking desires
 At both The Hague conferences which met on the initiative of Czar Nicholas, France, through Leon Bourgeois, had worked heartily for the agreement which was prevented by Germany already premeditating an aggressive war. Simultaneously despite the threats of her neighbor France reduced her termsof military service. Between 1883 and 1913 Ger many increased her military expen- allure 227 per cent; France only 70 per cent, or less than any other European country s. ha i
 In 1914, when Germany unmasked her offensive intention, France made heavy sacrifice to maintain peace, withdrawing her troops 10 kilo- metres from the frontier to avoid possible incidents So much for the past.
 Proposed Limitations
 At the 1919 peace conference France was the only nation to pro pose aspositive plan for the limita- tion Of armaments. To limit arma- ments effectively two conditions ob- yiously are Indispensable. The first must be means of verifying the dis armament actually effected. Second ly, nations honestly complying must not be victimized by others secretly arming.
 Leon Bourge, one of the French representatives acting in accord with Clemenceau and myself upheld ehis common sense and just thesis. Dis pite fis efforts this thesis was re- jected by President Wilson, backed by the English representative, Lord Robert Cecil
 The French proposals submitted at that time follows;

O|L FIGHT RACES IN HOUSE BUT IS
 ABRUPTLY ENDED
Partisan Battle Rages Fierce Iy Till Republican Motion Is Made to Adjourn
 Till Monday
By Associated Press

Washington, July t6--After refus- ing by vote of t22 to 106 to elim- mate the three-year dye embargo from the Fordney bill, the House jumped suddenly today into a par tisan fight over oil.
 But 1t did not Fast long. Flaming fiercely at first, the oil battle ended abruptly on a republican motion to adjourn until Monday Although op- posed solidly by democrats, who forced a roll call, the result was tho same as yesterday when the repub- quit.
 By breaking In unexpectedly. Rep resentative Garrett of Tennessee, in charge of the democratic minority, forced the oil issue to the front His amendment to put cru.e petroleum, and fuei oil back on the free list was thrown out on a point of order. amid the greatest confusion and u7- roar. For a time the House did not seem able to tell it's legislative head from its heels, a republican break- ing in with wild shout to know Where we are at"
 As the Garrett free oil amendment was. knocked out, Representativ. lican member of the ways and means committee. which at the eleventh hour imposed a duty of S5 cents a barrel on crude petroleum and 20 cents barrel on fuel oil, stepped to the front with an amendment to wios out the proposed tax. Being mem Der of the committee he was permit tod to present it but was stopped hf the close of a five minute talk by objections of democrats who an nounced they were prepared to shur off debate and vote.
 Half Hour FIurry
 In the half hour furry. the eil duty vas violently denounced af:i warmly defended. Representa- D Robertson, republican of Oklahoms. brought a round of applause from those supporting the oil tariff by at- tacking "the New England policy Of demanding protection with one hand and free trade with the other
 It was apparent that oil took top place in interest among the House membership in the five contested schedules on which separate vote is% to be permitted by the special rule Everybody, it seemed, was anxious to speak and worn out by the all day wrangle over dyes. mem bers were ready, to lay off until Mon day and get their forces lined up Ter the real fight.
 The dye embargo stood up against a combined attack by democrats ana republicans. Described by those sup' porting 1t as a device to shackle the vast dye interests of Germany It "Ss denounced by Representative Frea- of Wisconsin, republican memper of the ways and means committee and others, as move to buiio up dye monopoly In this country

wasted over these, and 1t seems to me about time for you to approach a solution. Let me speak today about questions concerning Germany In Silesia, many German and Polish deaths have been reported, many have been wounded, many deported. Houses have been burned and fields devastated. The plebiscite gives GO per cent of Silesia to Germany and 40 per cent to Poland. But whatever line you may draw. 1t is certain 1t will place thousands of Germans un- der Polish dominion and thousands of Poles under German dominion. Thanks to two years of agitation. gently encouraged by the bolsheyists. hatred has become so great In Siiesia that no partition can restore calm. The people have become habituated to the murder. arson and pillage of irregular bands. Hatred, animosity and jealously promotes militarism at Berlin and Warsaw.
 As to sympathy
 ITO me, 1t seems you must not be governed by sympathies or antipa- thies for the Germans or the Poles, but think only of Europe and Silesia. Sick Europe needs that country. It's value will be considerably dimin- ished If 1t is divided between two hostile nations. Poland lacks the power and the skill to maintain the industries in Silesia in the part that would fall to her.
 Just consider, gentlemen, that to- day 1t takes 80 Polish marks to make one German mark, while 100 German marks cost only $1.30.
 "Silesia, as matter of fact. is neither German nor Polish. but is in- habited by a mixture which will pro- duce good results when 1t learns to walk alone. Peace and hard work will return to Silesia only when it becomes an independent, neutralised state, governed at first under intor- national, but not necessarily inter- allied control. The treaty of Ver- sales does not forbid asking the Si-
