PEKING. May 6.-Gen. WI Pei-Fu,
victor over Gen. Chang Tso-Lin in
the struggle for military control in
China, declared today at Changsintien
that instead of striving for the posi-
tion of head of the government he
desired to devote his energies to
unity China, create political harmony
in the north and south, abolish mill
tarism, revive industry and win the
respect of the foreign powers.
He expressed himself as agreeing
with the opinion of the powers set
down at the Washington conference
that China must put her house in
order. free herself from vast armies,
apply her revenues to pay her debts
and build railroads.
Americans in Welcome.
wu Pei-Fu greeted group Of
Americans and British who visited
his private train, twelve miles out
side of Peking. AS the visitors ap-
preached Gen. Wu' appeared on the
steps of his, car dressed in simple
uniform without insignia of rank.
About the train were scattered tons
of ammunition and guns captured
from Chang's army. On the platform
numerous wounded soldiers were
stretched. while behind the station
were tethered about forty camels,
which had been used to convey the
mountain guns.
Gen. Wu was asked whether he in
tended entering Peking to assume the
direction of the government. He re-
politics, because of more serious
questions. First of all, he did not
consider that his victory was COM
plete until he had captured Chang
Tso-Lin, whom he desired to elimi-
nate as possible future menace. He
favored disarming most of the SOL
,diers, but wanted a reasonable de-
fensive army to represent united
China against foreign enemies.
Railroads Great Need.
Regarding economic reconstruction,
he declared that China's great need
was railroads. Ineficiency and the
dissipation of funds resulted from
the present system.
In the opinion of Gen. WI there
was every reason why the Chinese
people should prosper like the peo-
pies of other nations. AS an indica-
ton of his sincerity to depose the
militarists, he has addressed memo
randum to the, Peking government.
asking that he be deprived of the
office of inspector general of the

new POLICE Plan
FOR WHITE HOUSE
Bill in Congress Would Give
President Special Force
Under Sole Control.

A white House police force" un-
der the sole control of the President,
is provided for in a bill introduced
yesterday by Senator Phipps Of Colo
RADIO.
The bill provides for a police force
consisting of one first sergeant, two
sergeants, twelve privates of the Sec
ond class and fifteen privates OF the
first class The force is to be under
the direct supervision Of any officer
or officers the President may direct
The creation of such force would
relieve the metropolitan police force
from the duty of policing the White
House now imposed upon it. II
would make the police force OF more
than fifty men now on duty at the
White House available for use in
other parts Of the city, thereby really,
increasing the police force of the
District.
The White House police, however,
is to be recruited from the metropoli-
tan police force and the park police
force, on recommendation by the
heads of those two agencies. Vacan-
cies created in the metropolitan and
park police forces by appointments
to the White House police force are
to be filled in accordance with the
provisions Of existing law providing
for filling vacancies.
Pay Same as Others Get.
The pay of the White House police
force is to be the same as that of
men in similar grades in the metro
politan police force. The members
of the new force are to benefit under
the present police retirement law.
The sum of money necessary for
paying salaries and purchasing uni
forms and other equipment for the
White House police force is to be
disburse by the superintendent of
public buildings and grounds from
the appropriations for the Executive
Mansion and grounds The pro-
posed law Is to become effective

'.AH' TING AT WILSON
Says Former President Has
"Thrust Himself" Into
Missouri Campaign.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MOBERLY. Mo-, May 6.-Senator
James A. Reed, in an address here
today opening his campaign for re-
nomination. declared that former
President Wilson had thrust himself
into the Missouri campaign, through
the letter he had written to the st.
Louis Globe Democrat opposing
Reed The senator asserted that the
former President was "of a dominat-
ing temperament and impatient of
opposition"
The senator declared that Mr.. Will
son was 'the boy who is conducting
this campaign in Missouri for the
other side" Breckinridge Long.
third assistant secretary of state in
the Wilson administration, is the SEN
atore opponent for the nomination.
Says He Drove Out Lobby.
Mr.. Reed asserted he drove out the
lobby" in Washington, and Wilson
wrote a letter thanking him.
But I suppose he has forgotten
that letter. too." the senator added,
referring to Mr.. Wilson's denial that
he had written the senator thanking
him for his activities in behalf of
the federal reserve bang act.
Senator Reed, touching on prohi-
bition, asserted that the Volstead act
should be respected equally with
other sections Of the Constitution.
Referring to the present administra-
ton, he declared, "it has laid down
program after program. only to taban-
don them, reduced taxes upon all the
great trusts, profiteers and million
aires and gave no substantial relief
to the people, its history to this date
being one of broken pledges, servi-
tude to the great interests and aban-
donment Of the common people"
In defending his own record Mr.,
Reed challenged his audience to show
re cast his vote against one single
measure that was based on the
pledges Of the democratic party. He
asserted he had upheld all measures
sponsored by the Wilson administra-
tion, as far as the measures were in
accord with democracy, adding, how
yer, that he voted against a meas
.ure whenever he believed it incon-
sistent with democracy.
1 In repehing the charge frequently
made by the Wilson adherents that
he had opposed every bill advocated
by the former President. Reed
enum Grated some Of the measures,
among them. as he termed them, pet
measures of the then administration.
Charging the present administra-
.tion. with a tendency toward bureau
cracy, Senator, Reed asserted "an-
otter. menace which hangs over the
republic is the concentration of power
in the federal government
Speaking Of the Newberry elec-
tion case and his seating In the sem
ate, Mr.. Reed said: IF we are to
preserve this republic, then we must
have regard for principles. not for
dollars.
