This is similar to the Roddenburg
bill In the House, except that the
House resolution would have the
Vice President assume the office of
Chief Executive only during the ab
gence of President Wilson
The Houae has no interest in the
Cummins resolution and there will be
no discussion of it in that body un
less the Senate committee on audit
and control finds there is Insufficient
funds in the contingent fund of the
Senate to meet the expenses of the
proposed junket It is interested in
the Sherman-Roddenburg resolution,
however,
Republicem leaders in the lower
pody—Mann, Gillette, Mondell and
Longworth--have indicated their in
tention of inquiring, whenever a bill is
on the point of being passed, whether
it should actually be delivered into
the hands of the President or wheth
er, under the Constitution, delivery
of the bill at the White House meets
the requirements
May Cause Trouble,
This discussion may lead to more
gerious developments than are now
expected after the President leaves
the country, if the passage of emer
gency legislation is necessary
Notwithstanding their statements
to the contrary, President Wilson's
message was not a complete disap
pointment to Republican leaders of
the House and Senate, Most of them
hold to the view that the railroads
should be returned to private own
ership.
They were greatly pleased to find
that the President has an “open
mind” on this subject. They had be
lieved he was firmly convinced of the
necessity of permanent Government
operation. Public ownership men, on
the other hand, were bitterly disans
pointed by those sections of the Pres
dinet's message dealing with the rail
roads.
President Will Sail
For France Wednesday
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Dee. 3.—President
Wilson will sail for Europe tomorrow,
He will land at Brest, France, De
cember 11 early in the afternoon. By
that date the President and his fel
low delegates, who will represent the
United States at the coming peace
conference, will have completed their
program. There will be a good many
conferences en route.
As a matter of fact, it I 8 understood
here to be the intention of the Presi
dent to have the correspondence be
tween all of the Allled Premiers and
himslf; the various Forelgn Minis
ters and the Siate Department and
the great mass of confidential infor
mation gathered by the agents of
Colonel E. M. House since the latter
was named over a year ago to com
pile information dealing with recon
struction of the world, considered and
fully discussed by all of the delegates.
Of course, (General Bliss will not be
present, but he already is generally
famfliar with the details, so this will
be no very great handicap.
Agreement To Be Easy. |
With all of the delegates complete-
Iy Informed concerning detalls of
what has been taking place, it will
be very easy to reach a basis of com
mon understanding for action when
the peace conference actually meets,
Of course, the President will hold a
number of Informal conferences prior
to the beginning of the regular peace
meetings. In these conferences it is
not expected here that any other
American representative will particl
pate. As a matter of fact, there will
be little need for this, inasmuch as
England, France and Italy are to be
representad in the meetings by their
Premiers.
Officlals here were inclined to be-
Heve that it will be comparatively
easy for the “Big Four” of the na
tions to agree on their program, They
say there is every Indication that
suggestions coming from abroad, that
friction must develop, grows out of a
misunderstanding of the purpose of
the President, His attitude will be
one of entire friendliness, it {s stated,
3‘ he will insist only that the rights
all nations should be considered in
all movements.
To Stand by Ideals.
There will, however, be no compro

States. This country will sim.

the Allied nations whose cause the
United States espoused. The men
who will sit at the peace conference
aAre on record, over their own signa
fures, as agreeing to certaln well.
defined principles for which all of the
Allles were strugeling.
All, therefore, that the President of
the United States, as spokesman for
the people of the United States, will
ask, is that the princinles of Interna.
tional justice shall be observed in
#ll agreements designed permanently
to end this war and prevent any
further wars of such magnitude,
It was agreed here today that
President Wilson failed to eliminate
the partisan opposition to his trip
by his address of yesterday, Be
(ause of the principle of international
courtesy the President couid not re
veal that he had been urgel--even
importuned--to make the trip by the
very men whom certain inspired
sources are today declaring will

Mondsy night at the Atlanta The

stars who in peace days delighted
large audiences on the legitimate

Lieutenant 1. A. Hrotemarkle,

' poral Louis H. Kreltman took the
part of the King of Hunland, both

The musical entries were the hit
of the performance, Victor Young
playing an Egyptian organ; Na

The vaudeville stunts inciuded
exhibitions of skill by Lieutenant
August Schultz, bull whip cham

The entertainment was &rodu(m]
under the direction of rt An

New Orleans Sugar
When the sugar card restrictions
were called off December 1 it was
generally believed that there would
be plenty of filne, white sugar in
Atlanta for the holiday cakes and
candy—always observing the Gov
ernment request that the four
pounds-to-the - person - a._ - month
limit be adhered to. Now it turns
out that there I 8 practically no
white refined sugar in Atlanta and
will not be until the end of Decem
ber.
There is plenty of sugar, how
ever--the “white sea” sugar, it is
called; New Orleans sugar that
has the same food and sweetening
value as the finest white sugar, but
it is not so pretty to look at. The
dealers trust that the housewives
will be reasonable about this mat
ter-—it's all the sugar they can get,
and it really will do just as well
as the other for practically every
purpose.
The cause of the shortage in re
fined sugar is the Government's re
cent purchase of 42,000,000 pounds
of it from available markets for
the use of the army.
