WILSON OPPOSED
TO CONSCR|PT|ON
State Department Reveals
Stand in Discussions of
"Big Four" in Paris.
By the Associated Press,

6S the Associated Press.
Long-secret minutes Of conversations
between the big four" at the Paris
Peace Conference disclosed yesterday
that Woodrow Wilson, founder OF the
League Of Nations, regretted the
League had not abolished conscrip-
ton in the worlds armies
The records OF the meeting among
President Wilson, Lloyd George Of
England, M Clemenceau Of France
and Premier Orlando of 1taly-held
at Wilson's house in Paris on May %,
l9l9-are published for the first time
In a State Department volume OF
foreign relations in that year.
Wilson's opposition to conscriphon
was expressed during his unsuccessful
effort to have Russian factions then
fighting the new Bolshevik government
promise that they would not force
peasants to serve in their armies.
The "big four" were at the moment
considering extending assistance to
Admiral Kolchak and his White"
Russians then fighting the Reds"
who had overthrown the czarist and
nel eIlSky governments.
Pledges Demanded.
AS conditions for that help the big
four" drew up dispatch to Kolchak
demanding that he pledge the estab-
lishment of constituent assembly in
free elections; make no effort to re-
store the old land system or revive
special classes in Russia: recognize
the independence of Poland and Fin
land, previously part of the Russian
empire; consult the League of Nations
on solution Of independence claims
by Estonia, Latva and Lithuania;
abolish conscription and recognize
Russia's national debts,
Concerning conscription, the min
utes disclose the following exchange
of opinion:
IN Clemenceau objected to the
proposed abolition of consumption as
one of the conditions.
IN. Orlando agreed.
president Wilson said that al
though he had been in favor of it,
he regretted that the covenant of the
League of Nations had not abolished
CONSUMPTION.
"Mr. Lloyd George said he
was convinced that somehow or other,
consumption must be got rid of in
Russia. Otherwise, he was apprehen-
sive lest Russia might raise six mil
lions of soldiers and. sooner or later,
Russia might come into the German
orbit"
(The League of Nations armaments
yearbook shows that many OF the
worlds nations. including members of
the League, now have military con-
scription. Latest figures also indicate
that Soviet Russia has regular army
of l.545 900 and trained reserves of
19,4900O0, the worlds largest mill
tary force)
Under Clemenceau's insistence that
conscription be not made one of the
conditions, President Wilson finally
agreed to substitute a phrase call
ing for limitation of armament:
That as soon as a government for
Russia had been constituted on a
democratic basis. Russia should join
the League of Nations and cooperate
with the other members in the limi-
tation of armaments and of military
organization throughout the world"
Clemenceau, Orlando and Lloyd
George agreed to that change and it
was incorporated in the draft note
to Admiral Kolchak, Kolchaks even
tual defeat, however, and the Soviet's
grasp of power over all Russia nulH-
fed the entire document.

DIES WOULD END
GOLD PURCHASES
Texas Democrat Drafting
: Bill to Force Treasury to
: Cease Buying.'
Is the Associated Press

= the Associated Press.
Representative Dies, Democrat, Of
Texas said yesterday he was draft
ing legislation that would compel the
Treasury to stop financing gold pur-
phases by issuing taX-exempt bonds
and to pay for the metal with gold
certificates exclusively.
Back OF the proposal, he said, is a
growing concern in Congress over the
Amassing of about half the worlds
monetary gold In the United States.
With increasing frequency. references
70 the gold stock have been bobbing
up In House debate.
Provisions Of Bill.
Dies said the measure, to be intro
tduced Monday, would provide these
advantages:
49,. !. 1t would lift from the tax
payers the burden of having to
pay interest on the bonds issued to
buy gold. On the idle gold the
Government now owns the charge
IS about $4,000 daily. he said.
2. Gold acquired would be put
Into circulation through its paper
representative-the gold certificate.
3. Cash money gradually would
be substituted for credit money,
and thus alternate periods Of
booms and depressions might be
avoided
If we keep on buying gold at the
present rate the Texan asserted,
propping foot on his desk and An
Gering cigar, lit is not at all impos-
sble that within II months foreign
nations will abandon the use OF gold
and resort to silver or international
exchange agreements such as Ger
many now has.
I'VE are forcing foreign nations to
learn how to do international business
without the use Of gold.
Holdings Would be Worthless.
When these nations devise a sub
stitute for gold as a medium OF in
ternational exchange, our vast hold
ings Of gold will be practically worth
less"
Dies said his bill would put gold
purchases on about the same basis
as silver purchases, that it was not
anfationary and that it did not mean
. return to the gold standard.
Under the gold reserve act of 1894
he said, the Treasury has authority
to finance gold buying by issuing tax
exempt, interest bearing bonds or by
paying In coin or currency. But
using only the first method, he said
1t is buying gold at rate of 81 ,5O0,-
100000 a year and storing it like
corn in crib so that it will not
increase bank reserves and stimulate
credit imitation.
Under the silver purchase act, OF
which he is co-author, Dies said the
white metal must be bought with
silver certificates.
If it is sound to do that with
silver and on-inflationary," he said
''it is equally sound to issue the
gold certificates and save the tax
payers some money
The gold certificates would not be
redeemable IN gold but would be
backed 100 per cent by 1t, he as.
serted.
