Washington.?Congress in Joint scansion heard President Wilson announce formally his purpose to attend the peace conference and give his veiws on the part the government should play in dealing with reconstruction problems. Democrats of the house received the announcement wtth cheers in which some senators joined; the Republicans were silent almost throughout the address, except when the president referred to the valor or efficiency of American soldiers and mentioned the names of Pershing and Sims. Threatened interruptions by members who disapprove of the trip and of the president's failure to include asena A.l A? utl luuuut U1Q peace ueiBgnies, nowever, did not materialise. During the first hour of the new session, Senator Cummins, of Iowa, Republican, Introduced a resolution to send a committee of eight senators to Paris to keep the senate advised of the progress of the peace conference, and in the house, Representative Rodenburg, of Illinois, Republican, had offered a resolution proposing that the vice president take over the functions upon the departure of Mr. Wilson from the country. Senator Sherman, of Illinois, Republican, announced later that he would submit a resolution similar to that of Representative Rodenburg. except that it would declare the office of president vacant. The president's annual address was read before a crowd that filled the house chamber.

The inclusion in the estimates, however, of five items of pay with a nomnal appropriation of $100 each asked, shows that the whole question of the strength of the army after the conclusion of peace has been deferred and that supplemental estimates are to he expected under these headings when it Is possible to present a completed project.!

Wlckersbnm, formerly attorney general, in an ad dress here before educators, law> yers, bankers, and merchants engaged . in international trade, who are members of the council on foreign relations, advanced the opinion that the constitution makes it mandatory upon I Vice President Marshall to assume the office of President if Mr. Wilson leaves the United States to attend the > peace conference.

SB S, 1018 P.fRIIIUVUIIQTDlV I uuimmu muui I ni IN STERLING GOODS THE PRICE OF VICTORY NOT VENGEANCE, RETRIBUTION, BUT PREVENTION. THE LAW PLAINLY LAI3 DOWN Intimation Given That the Man, or Men Who Caueed the War Muat Meet Merited Punishment. ! | London.?David Lloyd George, the British prime minister. In a speech at Netr Castle, said the victory of the entente allies had been due to the ! ceaseless valor of their m6n and that it would be a lesson to anybody who in the future thought that they, as the Prussian war lords hoped, "could overlook this little island in their reckoning." "We are now approaching the peace conference," the premier continued. "The price of victory is not vengeance or retribution. It is prevention. First of all .what about those people whom I we nave received without question for years to our shores; to whom we give equal rights with our own sons and daughters, and who abused that hospitality to betray the land. Tbe second question was the question of indemnities, the premier added. In every court of Justice throughout the world the party which lost has> had to bear the coat of the litigation. When Qermany defeated France she established the principle. "But I must use one word of warning," said Mr. Lloyd George. Germany is not to he allowed to pay the indemnity by dumping cheap goods upon us. That is the only limit in principle we are laying down. She must nbt be slowed to pay for her wanton damage and devastation by dumping cheap goods and wrecking our industries. "There is a third and last point. Is no one to be made responsible for j the war? Somebody has been respon- ! sible for a war that has taken the lives of millions of the best young men of Europe. Is not anyone to be made responsible for that? If not, all I can say is that if that is the case, there is one justice for the poor wretched criminal and another for kings and emperors."

Mr. McAdoo stopped over to inspect this city, with a view to spending his vacation here when he gets free from his political job.

V. W.. Lewis states that he has received letters daily inquiring about the trip, and that already about 76 have said that they will go, so indications are for a good crowd and a fine trip. Among those asking for reservations for the trip are a number of progressive bankers and business men who have seen beyond the walls of their offices and have caught a vision of the live stock possibilities and prospects In South Carolina, and who realse that they must inform themselves and be prepared to do business on a live stock basis as well as on the time honored cotton basis. It is certainly a fine opportunity for such men to study conditions in the older stock raising sections, and to realise at first hand that live stock farming is not only a solid but a profitable kind of farming enterprise for business men to encourage and back up with their moral ,and financial support. Mr. Lewis will shortly mail letters to those who hare already written to him calling upon them to state definitely that they will or will not go. Others who have not written to Mr. Lewis will do well to communicate with him at once if they wish to go. Bishop Russell Criticized.
