on French soil on nis second trip to
the peace conference At 9:45 o’clock
tonight, and shortly after 11 o'clock
was speeding to Paris upon a special
train
The President already had cleaned
up all of his work and is all in readi

the party is due to arrive in Paris at
11 a. m. tomorrow
Both Mr, and Mrs. Wilson were in
excellent health and high spirvits. The
former commented upon the fact that
he was landing on the 12th day of the

The voyvage all the way across was
uneventful
The main streets of Brest had been
decorated in honor of the President's
coming, but the flags and bunting
thung somewhat limply, as a result of
the showery weather. A falr scatter

dock, but all of the approaches nre
cluttered with trucks and war male
rinls, to be shipped back to the Unit.

When the George Washington was
coming to her anchorage a French
