If we do not talk about them so much right now it is because we are more impressed by what the Ger mans have done in violation of them. “We must first deal with the ma terial questions which are vitally im portant. It is for President Wilson to interpret his fourteen points, after which their application will be ren dered easier. “We have already decided that Ger mane must pay in full for the dam age she has wrought. The amount is indeterminate at present. Demand for more than reparation is the only possible subject for differences of opinion. “President Wilson is likely to ask the allies to adopt measures enabling Germany to maintain her economic liberty.'which the allies will accept. But. concerning the league of nations, Germany should enter a period of probation before she is admitted to a full membership. The changes in Germany can not be accepted as proof of her good faith. Time only will tell. “We feel a natural reserve regard ing freedom of the seas, owing to Great Britain’s insularity and the scope of her dominions. But this should not be hard to settle. “We shall not try to change any of President Wilson's views, some of which, however, are so phrased as to give various interpretations. These undoubtedly will be cleared up." BRITAIN DECIDES ATTITUDE ON FREEDOM OF SEAS LONDON. Dec. 12. —The British government has decided upon the at titude it wi’l adopt at the peace con ference regarding the freedom of the seas, according to the Daily Express today. The newspaper refers to the American naval program as set forth by Secretary Daniels and says: “Official circles in London are completely satisfied with this and with the grateful tributes to the British navy by former President Roosevelt. Admiral Sims and other Americans. The British government is ready to concede to the United States the freest of all free hands in naval development, and it welcomes the idea of the extension of Ameri can sea power as one of the best guarantees of the peace of the world and of real freedom of the seas. "All we ask for the empire is what we will willingly concede to the United States—freedom of action.” 160 Hens—lsoo Eggs Mr*. H. M. Patton.

Dec. 11. —The sen ate committee investigating activi ties oL' the German propagandists in this country today observed a holi day while Major E. Lowry Humes, who is conducting the probe, pre pared new evidence. The committee adjourned subject to call by its chairman. Senator Over man. Today Senator Overman said that the committee would probably resume business the latter part of the week, possibly Friday. Samuel Untermyer. New York law yer. was expected to appear Friday. District Attorney Becker, of New York, also may testify in a tew days. Praise for the important put he has played in running to eat tn certain offenders has been freely given by A. Bruce Bielaski. depart ment of justice. . . . . Copies of instructions telegraphed bv William Randolph Hearst to the editors of his newspapers and of oth er messages received and sent by him at Palm Beach, Fla., early in 191 < just before the United States entered the war, were read yesterday into the record of the senate committee in vestigating brewers and German propaganda. They were taken trorn the files of the department of justice and given to the committee by A. Bruce Bielaski, chief of the bureau of investigation. Mr. Hearst s messages directed that editorials advocating embargo on shipments of munitions and food to the allies be prepared for his New Y'ork papers; instructed that a refer endum peace vote" in an election dis trict in each city where Hearst or gans were printed be taken, and that Windsor McCay prepare a cartoon for the New York American showing the United States and Germany shak ing their fists at each other and a huge Japan bending forward await ing to strike “Uncle Sam in the back. Zimmerman Note Other of the telegrams related to the famous Zimmerman note in which Germany proposed an alliance with Mexico and Japan and which tne Associated Press revealed to the world. One message signed Doc tor.” and sent from Palm Beach, said the note probably was a forgery pr®“ pared by the attorney general to frighten congress into giving the president .he powers he demanded and perhaps also into passing the espionage bill.” „ This telegram was dated March l and was sent after Van Mann, at New York, had telegraphed Hearst at I alm Beach a copv "of the instructions as sent bv Dr. Alfred Zimmermann, German foreign secretary to German Minister von Eckhardt in Mexico, through Von Bernstorff now in pos session of the United states govein *nOn‘ March 1 S. S. Carvalho, of the New Y'ork American, sent Mr. Hearst a telegram saying that "Senator ‘Swann’ (Swanson), of Virginia, an nounced in the senate this morning that he was authorized by the presi dent to state that the Zimmermann note to Mexico was textually correct. Lansing made same announcement from state department," and asked: “Will you outline such editorial as you wanted printed?" Before the telegrams were read into the record, the committee heard Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart, of Har vard university, whose name was contained in a “list of important names” found In the diary of Dr. Karl F. Feuhr, a German propa gandist. Dr. Hart, who has two sons In the army, entered an em phatic denial of pro-German tenden e'es and declared he was stronglv anti-German before and after the United States entered the war. Messages from Ellhu Root and Charles W. Eliot, vouching for Dr. Hart's loyalty, were received by Chairman Overman and placed in the record In the senate during the day Sen ator Hitchcock delivered a prepared address, explaining his attitude to ward the shipment of munitions to the allies before the United States entered the war. He had been men tioned in communications of German agents as favorable to this proposal. Senator Hitchcock recalled that his attitude on the subject was well known since he had Introduced a bill to make such sh’nments unlaw ful. Like other Americans, he said, his views had undergone a change. He first favored peaceful neutrality, he said, then armed neutrality and finally a declaration of war. The committee adjourned todav until Friday, when German propa ganda will be further Inquired into, it was said. Witnesses vzill include Deputy Attorney General Becker, of New York, and Francis Garvin, of the bureau of investigation of the alien property custodian’s office. Message From Zeitung Among the messages received and sent bv Hearst and others read into the committee’s record today was one from the Vossisehe Zeitung. sent via Sayville, N. Y., February 22, nineteen days after the United States severed diplomatic relations. It was addressed: “William Randolph Hearst. The Breakers. Palm Beach, Fla., “and said: “Since rupture relations Reuters’ misrepresentations more than ever uncontrollable. Kindly cable brief statement precise situation opinion* leading American circles. Many thanks beforehand." On February 24 Hearst sent this message to Mr. Carvalho, of the New York American; “Don’t you think we should print In New York the dispatch from Vos sische Zeitung, which query reads as follows: Note (probably quote meant) ’Since rupture relations Reu ters’ misrepresentations more than ever uncontrollable. Kindly cable brief statement prec' e situation. My reply in New York?” , On the following day. February 25. Hearst sent this message to Car valho: “Use Star-Spangled Banner in ail morning papers. Do not print Vos sische Zeitung message.” In a message to the New York American on February 24, 1917, Mr. Hearst outlined instructions to be cabled to William Bayard Hale, then a Hearst correspondent in Berlin, and who, according to evidence re cently produced, was on the Ger man payroll without Hearst’s knowl edge. Mr. Hearst said he believed a vast majority of the people in America and Germany opposed the United States entering the war. and concluded: “We earnestly desire to employ the influence of our country not for the extension and protraction of the war. but for the promotion of a just and lasting peace." A message dated March 2. signed “Doctor” and adressed to S. S. Car valho. New York American, declared that the famous Zimmerman note in which Germany proposed an alliance with Mexico and Japan, and which the Associated Press revealed to the world, probably was a forgery pre pared by the attorney general. The object of the “forgery," the message said, “was to frighten con gress into giving the president the powers he demanded and perhaps also into passing the espionage bill.” Doctor’s Messages The message of March 2. signed “Doctor" said in part: “Agree with Francis, Zimmermann note all probability absolute fake and forgery, prepared by very unscrupu- Icus attorney general’.* very unscru pulous department. Everybody knows that the secret service police are the most conscienceless manufactur ers of forged evidence in the world. “Gregory’s whole career in office as Francis showed in recent editorial, has been a spy sent here and plot conceiver. He has not been bound by morals, facts, or the constitution. He has employed the secret service to enforce England's unlawful or ders. He has attempted to put a hill through congress to nvike any criti cism of his acts or of the president's acts or of any political move or measure treasonable and punishable as such. “He is possibly violently pro-Brit- CASTORIA For Inf a ncs and Children in Use For Over 30 years Always heart— Signature ol trZcc&'Zi ish. He is su-ely violently pro-cor poration. He is located where he can do the corporations the most good, and lie has been unwilling to be re moved, or they have been unwilling to have him removed even for a po sition on the supreme bench. Hu and Burleson are House’s appointments, and House has been a. corporation lobbyist all his life “The object of the Zimmerman for gery was to frighten congress into gicving tiie president the powers that he demanded and perhaps also into passing tlie espionage bill. When Wilson wanted to give away the rights of the United States in the Panama canal he pretended that he had private information of a dan gerous international situation suffi cient to justify his acts. He has never revealed his private informa tion and no one now believes that he ever had any. "He could not repeat this false claim on this occasion so a complai sant cabinet officer this time under took to manufacture sufficient false evidence to enable Mr. Wilson to have his way. It is possible that the British secret service co-operated in these plans. The only serious con sequence is that the whole people of this country, ninety per cen of whom do not want war. may be pro jected into war because of these mis representations and these forged documents, if they are forged. . . . “If we do not want to say all this editorially, we can say part of it editorially, and get some one to stand for interview as Hale use to do to bring all these points out, es pecially those about the probable forgery of the note. We should de velop the forgery phase of the note for the Sunday paper if Francis and I seem to be right.” A message elated February 21, 1917, adressed to Philip Francis, in care of the .New York American, said there should be a vigorous attack on the espionage bill, and quoted Sena tor Cummins as saying the measure was the most stringent and drastic ever proposed to curb a free people. “The Democratic party,” the mes sage adds, “seems to forget that this is a republic in which the peopie govern, and in which full information is essential to intelligent govern ment.” A message date March 3, 1917, signed “Hearst" and sent to Carval ho, said: “If situation quiets down please remove color flags from first page and little flags on inside pages, re serving these for special occasions of a warlike or patriotic kind. 1 think they have been good for this week, giving us a very American character and probably helping sell papers, but to continue effective, they should be reserved for occasions.” “Bod, White and Blue” A message signed “Hearst” ad dressed to Carvalho dated February 26, 1917. said: “Why not run the red, white and blue title that we had for last edi tion through all editions for a few days during these troublous times? 1 think it will meet popular senti ment. Also please run little Ameri can flags to right and left of date lines on inside pages, like the Chicago Herald. Our editorials should be patriotic without the slightest crit cism direct or indirect of administra tion. I guess Germany is going to sink every ship that tries to run the submarine blockade and this means three things—first, that we will get into the war, second, that England will be starved into submission in less than six months, third, that Ger many will then have time to devote to us and this country will soon be in a condition similar to warring Eu ropean countries. We must prepare in every way. Can we say these things editorially?" A message dated February 26, 1917, from New Y’ork, signed “Van Hamm” addressed to W. R. Hearst, Palm Beach. Fla., said: “Earnestly urge immediate action to cheek or stop Hale dispatches. They come by wireless and surely are Picked up despite your well-known attitude of neutrality. These dis patches are so worded as to permit the interpretation that Berlin is dic tating our policy. I fear we are drifting into a situation akin to the false McKinley one only accentuated manyfold. With profound respect 1 urge we check Hale and all agencies that tend to throw discredit upon our declared attitude of sturdy Americanism.” On February 25, 1917, Hearst sent a message addressed to F. W. Kel logg, Washington Bureau of the New York American, saying: “When I in scribed the watchword ‘An American paper for the American people’ over the titles of my newspapers, I meant just what that motto said," and de claring he would not supplicate Eng land tor news or for print paper or for permission to issue, nor allow his papers to be edited in the small est degree by an foreign power. A message on the same day to Car valho, asked that the verses of the “Star Spangled Banner” be kept standing across the American’s edi torial page, and that the evening pa pers keep standing verses reproduced irom Harper’s Weekly during the Civil war and referring to shipments of arms by England to the south.” Under date ot February 25, 1917. a message signed “Hearst" directed Philip Francis, of the New York American, to write an editorial ad vocating embargo for the American, “along your own lines,” and to pre pare one for the Evening Journal amplifying and improving sugges tions, some of which were as fol lows: “America is not only being starv ed for the benefit of xvarring Europe, but it is being plundered of its wealth as well. . . . We are re ceiving in return counters media of exchange which may become com paratively worthless and promises to pay which may never be redeemed. Os what use are the I. O. U.'s of a bankrupt? “We are revelling in mock pros perity and will all wake up some line morning and find the sheriff at our doors. “Why are we wasting our wealth? If it were for some noble purpose, we could afford to go poor for a generation and find comfort and con solation in a worthy deed. But no we are wasting our wealth to con tinue a carnival of murder, to pro long an era of overwhelming disas ter, to encourage the destruction of tne white race, to tear the achieve ments of civilization which have tak en ages to construct, to repudiate re ligion and violate all established standards of decency, morality and righteousness, to prostitute the’prog ress of the world to the meanest and basest and vilest of nurposes " xr t Geo^ e Sylvester Vlerick, editor of 'iencks Weekly, formerly The Fa therland, whose names has been men tioned several times in the inquiry, sent Hearst a message from New York under date r,f March 1. saying he believed the storv of the Zimmer man note was a “hoax” and that iht document was “planted bv British agents.” Under date of March 3 Hearst sent these messages to Carvalho. “I feel congress should remain in continual session and protect the peo ple’s liberties. This making a dic tator of the president desperately dangerous precedent. It may do no immediate harm with a good presi dent, but it may do immense in.iurv with some had one. . . . Wilson Is federalist as I wrote in fit st year of his term and as Francis showed in alien and sedition editorial. The fed eralists are autocratic in tendency . . . President of this rer-obiic toduv has more power than anv king tn any constitutional monarchy in the world. If he gets mote he will be a dictator and nosslblv a despot. It is the duty* of true Democrats to be vigilant, especially as all these en croachments on nopular rights are being made in the name of dem ocracy.

Speak very highly of Wilson, say he is good president and undoubtedly meant to use power for good purposes, but the precedent is a dangerous one to establish and senate did well to retain its powers and rights and nrotect the liberties of the people. “Say that the few senators who voted to retain the rights and func tions of that body constitute a roll of honor. They did not lack respect tor president, but they had a greater re snect for the institutions founded by the fathers. The way will come when their action will be commended by the all the people.

People want no war against Germany. England arch enemy of United States. Country not prepared for war. Let us prepare em bargo on munitions and foodstuffs. No additional powers to president. Disaster will follow war.’ This message was signed by Theo dore Pinther, president of the league, and C. H. Honing, secretary. On February 25 Hearst sent a tele gram to Carvalho asking him to keep standing in the “evening papers the verses printed in the American repro duced from Harper’s Weekly during the Civil war and referring ship ments of arms by England to the south." Carvalho protested the next day In this message: . “Cannot find Harper’s Weekly poem in American. Found one reproduced in Fatherland from Harper's Weekly 1863 attacking England for sending arms, etc., therefore in consequence of the sinking of Laconia today with Americans aboard and President Wil son’s address before congress urge that we not use this poem, if It Is the one vou mean, as under present con ditions it is bound to hurt papers.

SHOOK WITH NERVOIimS A Lady Was Flat on Her Back With Terrible Spells, but Her Husband Got Cardui, And Now She Is Grateful. McKinney, Texas. —Mrs. Mary Ste phenson, of this place, states: “About a year and a half ago I was down in bed for six weeks, not able to sit up. I was flat on my back and had terrible spells. . . . Why, It looked like I would die. At times I didn’t know anj’thlng. I would get nervous, I couldn't bear anyone to talk to me i xxould just jerk and shook with nervousness . . . across my back was so sore and ached me al! the time. I would have a dizzy feel ing. My limbs ached me ani I would get numb and feel so weak. ... I said to my husband I knew Cardui was good and I believed I had best try it. He got me a bottle of Cardui, and when I had only taken one-half bot tle of Cardui I felt stronger. I took a half dozen bottles altogether, then in two weeks after I began taking I was up, in three I was doing my work. I praise Cardui for I believe it saved my life and I am grateful.” For over 40 years Cardui has been helping weak, sick women back to health and strength. Try it. — (Advt.)

GtS M. a PACE. Mr. LLOYD GEORGE TALK CONSIDERED LARGELY AS CAMPAIGN WORK < Continued From Page 1.) in the next few months in the peace confer cnce was going to leave a mark upon the world. The ages to come, he said, would be able to reap the fruits of it. Germany Must Pay The premier next dealt with the question of indemnity. He declared I the war had cost Germany less than it had cost Great Britain. it had cost Great Britain, he declared, 8,- 000,000,000 pounds, a gigantic sum. The German bill, he believed, was 6,- 000.000,000 pounds or 7,000,000,000 pounds. He contended it was inde fensible that the person who was in the wrong and had lost should pay less than the person who was de clared to be in the right and had won. The premier said a British impe rial commission had been appointed to investigate the capacity of Ger manv (to pay) and that he had re ceived its report. He summarized his remarks on this point as fol lows: “First—As far as justice is con cerned, we have an absolute right to demand the whole cost of the war from Germany. “Second —We propose to demand the whole cost of the war from Germany. “Third—When you come to the exacting of it we must exact in such away that it does not do more harm to the country that receives it than the country that is paying it. "Fourth —The commission ap pointed by the British cabinet be lieves it can be done. “The allies are in exactly the same boat. We shall put in our demands all together and whatever they are they must come in front of the German war debt.” The prime minister continued: Must Punish Kaiser "The first consideration in the minds of the allies will be the in terests of the people upon whom the Germans have made war, and not in the Interests of the German peo ple who have made war and have been guilty of that crime.” With regard to the former German emperor, the premier said: “There is absolutely no doubt that he has committed a crime against international right, and ought to be held responsible for it so far as the liuropean allies are concerned.” The premier said he hoped that America would take the same view when President Wilson arrived as to the demand that would be put forward on the part of the Euro pean allies "to make the kaiser and his accomplices responsible for this terrible crime.” Referring to a letter said to have been written by a British general to a French general in which the British officer was quoted as saying it was proposed to establish a Brit ish national army of twenty . di visions based on conscription, but that the cabinet would not touch this until after the elections and then not "until this league of nations nonsense has been discussed at the peace conference,” Premier Lloyd George declared: “The cabinet never heard of the scheme. So far as the cabinet is concerned, it is purely an expres sion n < ’ the oninion some general.” CHURCHILL OFFERS PARTIAL LEAGUE PLAN DUNDEE, Scotland, Wednesday. p Pe . 11.—Colonel Winston Spencer Churchill, minister of munitions, of fered what he described as a prac tical suggestion in regard to a league of nations during an address here today. He said that such a league should ascertain from every country the extent of its naval, military and aerial preparations. “Secret armaments have tn the past been a great danger,” he said, “and the course I suggest would re move one of the causes that led to this fearful catastrophe.” DID CHILD WAKE UP CROSS OR FEVERISH Look, Mother! If tongue is coated give “California Syrup of Figs.” Mother! Your child isn’t naturally cross and peevish. See if tongue is coated; this is a sure sign its little stomach, liver and bowels need a cleansing at once. When listless, pale, feverish, full of cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn’t eat, sleep or act naturally, has stomach-ache, diarrhoea, remem ber, a gentle liver and bowel cleans ing should always be the first treatment given. Nothing equals "California Syrup of Figs” for children’s ills; give a teaspoonful, and in a few hours all the foul waste, sour bile and fer menting food which is clogged in the bowels passes out of the sys tem, and you have a well and play ful child again. All children love this harmless, delicious "fruit laxa tive,” and it never fails to effect a good "inside" cleansing.

Name Street City State I SENATE WILL FRAME INDUSTRIAL POLICY OF POST-WAR PERIOD (Continued From Page 1.) off in expectation of getting cheaper labor and material is making a busi ness mistake and may soon find him self at disadvantage.” While Wilson painted a picture of healthy industrial activity in this country, he admitted that there I might be some danger of unemploy j ment because numerous manufac.ur ers are awaiting lower costs before resuming peace activities and be cause others must readjust equip ment. Must Resume Public Works To meet this situation he advocat ed the immediate resumption ot mu nicipal, state and federal projects, held up by the war and the indicat ing ot other public improvements which he said were needed to act as a temporary reservoir for discharged soldiers. Other necessary steps for indus trial reconstruction such as the re leasing of government control of fi nancing and of raw materials and the clearing of all labor data through a single agency have already been taken, Wilson said. The labor department has created a large central employment clearing house with branches throughout the country from which it gets weekly reports. The last report showed a labor shortage in 28 cities, a surplus of labor in 7 and demand and sup ply running even in 75 others. Wilson gave numerous reasons why the demand for labor will out run the supply. Samuel Gompers. president of tl e American Federation of Labor, will be one of the first experts called by the senate education and labor com mittee in its investigation of prob lems of industrial welfare. Senator Kenyon, author of the res olution authorizing the inquiry, said today it has the backing of the fed eration. Kenyon declared congress must face the fact that "labor no longer can be satisfied by handouts from employers.” Backed by Labor “We must face the fact that labor has a right to demand, and is de manding. its fair and equitable share in the country’s prosperity,” said Kenyon. "It doesn’t mean in dollars alone; the sooner we get away from thinking in terms of cash alone when relations of employer and employe are under consideration, the sooner we will be able to settle the problem on its merits. “If the reform my resolution out lines does not come by legislation, it will come by revolution. We must meet it in a fairminded, intelligent manner, if we want to avoid Bol shevism in this country. Bourbon ism is worse than Bolshevism, for It is from Bourbonism that Bolshevism springs. Bourbonism, of course, is opposed to my resolution. "The workers of America showed by the part they took in winning the war just what their true status Is in this republic.
