 Legion Men On Committee

State representation on the Ameri- can Legion committee controlling the distribution of state aid to eX-serVice men was vigorously opposed by off, cials of the organization at hear ing before the judiciary committee of the General Assembly yesterday. Op- position was based largely on the claims that S7,550 was asked to de- fray expenses of the one representa- tive of the state, while the Legion handled the matter efficiently and we'll during the past two years for ap- proximately s5,00O. They also ob- jected because of the apparent lack of confid ence on the part of the state by appointing a man to check them up.''
 Legion delegates from every sec ton of the state supported the pro- posal to continue disbursins state funds to unemployed ex-service men. including State Commander John F.

not expected the withdrawal of the
United States from representation in the
council meant that the American troops

whatever differences there may be in
foreign policy between the Outgoing and

ton no other relations than those estab-
lished by the armistice exist between
the United States and Germany.
When these relations are altered,
either by a separate treaty, conditional
ratification of the Treaty of Versailles
or by other American governmental ac-
ton. il is expected here the Americans
will leave the Rhine.
In speaking of his ordered withdrawal
Ambassador Wallace said to-day: I'm
view of the fact that most of the inn
portant questions relating to the armis-
tice have been disposed Of, and mas
much as the Treaty of Versailles has
not been ratified by the United States
there appears to be no further occasion
for continuing the American representa-
ton in the conference"
So far as he knew, the Ambassador
added, neither the question of disarma-

enced the decision of the Washington

WILL BE TESTED TO-DAY
Deputies Determined to Inter-

PARIS. Jan. 11.---A test OF the strength
of the Government of Premier Leygues
In the Chamber of Deputies tomorrow
Is foreshadowed by the determination
expressed tonight by several groups of
Deputies that they will insist upon an
immediate Interpolation OF the Govern
ment on it's policy without awaiting the
outcome OF the conference OF the allied
Premlers concerning matters still out
standing with Germany.
II had been understood that the OPP
position would delay It's attack so as
to give NJ. Leygues free hand In the
allied conference. but Deputy Landes
Deyris, who announced that he would
insist upon interpellating the Cabinet, is
credited with strong support.
IL is generally considered that the
Government can hardly afford TO risk
such n discussion now az IL seems GER
tain that the debate would be extended
TO foreign affairs. but the Opposition
is said to be determined to force the is
sue In any case.
II was the consensus in the Hobbies
of both the Senate and the Chamber
this morning that the Governments po-
sitlon was strengthened rather than
weakened by the Senatorial elections.

Great Increase in Ranks of

The Governments principal sugges-
tions, giving an insurance benefit OF ID
shillings a week to the unemployed and
placing Government establishments on

weekly wage. are declared by the Labor
party to be totally inadequate, and the
party refuses to cooperate with the Gov

that even Il short time is adopted there
shall be no reduction in wages.

Paris, Jan. H.
Pursuant to instructions received
from Washington yesterday, Hugh o.
Wallace, American Ambassador to
France, will formally withdraw from
the Council of Ambassadors to-mor-
row, attending the session OF the coun-
Gil tomorrow only for the purpose OF
taking leave of his colleagues.
The French Government has invited
the United States to participate In the
Supreme Council meeting. and Pre-
mier Leygues was surprised last eve
ming on being told by Ambassador Wal
lace that not only had Washington de-
clined the invitation, but coupled there
with were instructions to retire from
the Ambassadors Council.
The official opinion here has been that
Ambassador Wallace's relations with the
council would continue as at present
until the Harding policy was settled.
ana Officials were rather unprepared for
the Wilson Administration 10 stress in
this new manner Americas withdrawal
frcm Europe's political affairs. Great
regret was expressed among officials. be-
cause Ambassador Wallace. although
strictly confining himself TO the role Of
an observer, had. when requested, given
advice and information regarding Ame:-
ica which was described as very valua :
BILE
Another cause for regret is. naturally,
the encouragement which the French
fear the action of the United States in
this connection will give the Germans in
their resistance to the Treaty OF Ver-
saillers There is, however, thorough
understanding here of the peculiar rela-
tionship the United States bears TO the
treaty. whose execution is a special prob
lem of the Council of Ambassadors.
Certain points affecting the old armis-
tice relations have come up before the
council occasionally. permitting Ambas-
sador Wallace's active participation in
those questions which had a bearing on
the American occupation zone and the
Rhineland commission. 1t is admitted
here that all these questions have now
been settled and that the only thing re-
naming Is for the Council of Ambas-
sadors to execute all the clauses of the
peace treaty. none of which has been
ratified by America
But what diplomats here find 1t hard to
understand Is why the United States
should decline the opportunity to have
immediate contact and to be witness
TO all the proceedings the Allies take re-
garding the peace treaty without being
in any way bound by the decisions. and
thus be in a better position to protest
Immediately il she regarded her inter
ests as being jeopardized.
This was stressed particularly to-day.
as there was evidence of desire on the
part OF France to keep nothing concern
ing the treaty from America.

Riots in British India

A LLAHABAD, British India,
A Jan. 1.-THE police are
powerless to quell rioting in this
region, which has spread to Sui
tanpur, sixty miles to the north
east, where buildings have been
burned. Troops have been sum-
moned from Lucknow. There
have been six hundred persons
arrested.
Much bloodshed has resulted
from the rioting of the peasantry
in the Raj Bareli district, south
west of Lucknow, where parties
of villagers have been travelling
about damaging crops and caus-
ing other damage. The cause of
the trouble is stated to be the
efforts of the landlords to sup
press soviets established by the
tenants.

DUBLIN. Jan. l.. - Two statements
concerning reprisals in Ireland were
made public to-day. The first from
British official sources, explains that the
houses destroyed at Middleton and Nee

by Are, which would have endangered
adjoining property, but scientifically by
explosives. whose range and enects
were carefully calculated.
The second. from a Sim Fein source
asserts that not the military but the
constabulary was responsible for the
institution or official reprisals. and pro-
ceeds to explain that clamor from the
constabulary brought about Climax
when the divisional commissioner or po-
lice at Limerick complained to Dublin
Castle that the military had no power
to punish communities under martial
law. and threatened that if the 'Kilcom-
mon murders continued to go unpun-
ished he would withdraw all the small
detachments Of constabulary and leave
the country TO the rebels.

Government yielded, and the reprisals

TOXIC, Jan. 1.-THE rumor from
America OF a secret clause in the Anglo

Jiji Shinlpo as in the class of mischievous
canards, and the talk OF war between
Japan and the United States as similarly
mischievous and fantastic. particularly
at this time when, II says the 1disarma

AS for a naval race between America,

siders this would be incomparably more
foolish than the Anglo-German naval
race before the war. Tho JJi expresses

will shortly announce his views on dis
armament and also his plan for an asso-
